Chapter 308 Tell me the truth. Grandpa, is he (3)

Lu Beichuans attitude was unyielding. Butler Lu couldnt avoid his help, so he didnt say anymore.

After they reached the room, Lu Beichuan helped Butler Lu sit down on the sofa and brought a glass of warm water to him.

Butler Lu took two sips before placing the glass on the table and hammering his sore shoulders. Looking at Lu Beichuan, he said, Young Master, go back to your room to rest. Im fine.

Lu Beichuan didnt leave. Instead, he walked around the room and asked, Youve been with the Lu family for 50 or so years, right?

Yeah, its been 57 years.

Youve been with Grandpa since he was young. Youve been working hard all these years.

Butler Lu slightly smiled. Im only doing what I should. Its not hard work at all.

Hows Grandpas health lately?

Butler Lu paused. His smile turned unnatural. He had a checkup a few days ago. Hes okay. Its just that he had a minor injury when he was young and it flared up. The doctor said he has to properly recuperate.

Lu Beichuan nodded. Since its a pain from an old injury, why are there so many cancer-treating medicines at home?

Butler Lu was stunned. He wanted to refute, but then he heard Lu Beichuan say, Dont rush to explain. I already checked. You sent away five doctors today. As far as I know, those doctors are all experts in treating cancer. Theyve been staying here for a while too. I checked the medicine that the servant brought over too. Theyre all medicine for treating cancer.

Lu Beichuan paused and sat down next to Butler Lu. There used to only be a few doctors that checked up on Grandpa, and they were ordinary doctors too. Right before New Years, Grandpa was the only living here, so those doctors and that medicine, they were all for Grandpa. Am I right?

Lu Beichuan had laid everything out in the open.

Butler Lu didnt know how to answer him.

Tell me the truth. Grandpa, is he

Butler Lu sighed and solemnly nodded. Yes, Old Masters health is getting worse and worse.

When did you find out?

Around March or April. At the time, Old Master wasnt feeling well, but he refused to go to the hospital and had a doctor come here to do a checkup. The doctor saw troubling early signs and advised him to go to the hospital, but Old Master refused. The delay and dragging out lasted for over two months. Later on, he couldnt bear it anymore and finally went to the hospital. The examination showed that he had terminal liver cancer.

Lu Beichuan didnt understand. Grandpa has annual physical examinations. How did they not find signs of it earlier?

Old Master hasnt gone for a checkup since he moved here. Butler Lu was very helpless. He keeps saying that hes in good health and that he knows his body best. He wouldnt go to the hospital.

Why?

Butler Lu said in solemn voice, Perhaps, its because hes been thinking about the past. Since Young Master Shaoyan came back, Old Masters mood has been unstable. I dont know how to persuade him.

Lu Beichuan had heard a little bit about what happened back then, but as a junior, it wasnt his place to get involved.

Lu Beichuan contemplated for a while. This wont do. Grandpa has to go to the hospital tomorrow.

Old Master wont agree to that. Butler Lu said, He said that going to the hospital to get treatment is suffering. He rather stay at home and comfortably and peacefully spend his last days.

With conservative medical treatment

Young Master, Butler Lu interrupted him and patiently advised, Ive tried persuading Old Master to go to the hospital for treatment. Thats not what he wants. He doesnt want anyone else to know that hes sick. Do you know why he called everyone back home? Its because hes already contacted his lawyer. Hes going to announce his will while everyone is here. He wants to avoid people getting into heated arguments after his death.
