Gu Xiwan was filled with emotions.
Just among the people around her, there are her father and mother, housekeeper Cheng and Sheng Xinyi's mother, two pairs of lovers who are not together. There are still many pairs of lovers in the world who have not become married.
Gu Xiwan will learn from this and make good use of the hard-won marriage between him and Chu Lingjue. She will not end up like her parents and housekeeper Cheng, who will have regrets throughout her life.
"Actually, the person who feels the most miserable right now is the young master. You can stay and spend more time with him. I'll go get the car and come back to pick you up later."
After the housekeeper finished speaking, he walked towards the parked car.
Chu Lingjue was still standing by the fountain smoking.
Gu Xiwan knew that when a person is upset, it is better to let him be alone for a while...
So, she didn't bother Chu Lingjue, she just stood there quietly and paid attention to him silently.
A few minutes later, Butler Cheng drove the car to Gu Xiwan and lowered the window.
"Young madam, please go over and ask the young master to get in the car with you."
"Um."
Gu Xiwan responded calmly and walked towards Chu Lingjue.
Chu Lingjue stood alone by the fountain, smoking deeply and looking at the water spraying from the fountain in front of him, his eyes sad and melancholy——
Even though Gu Xiwan had come behind him, he didn't notice it.
"Uncle Cheng has already driven the car over. Let's go."
Hearing Gu Xiwan's voice, Chu Lingjue returned to reality in his memories.
The moment he turned back to look at Gu Xiwan, the emotion that had enveloped his eyes like frost instantly dissipated.
He gently held Gu Xiwan's slender waist and said,
"Um."
Gu Xiwan and Chu Lingjue got into the car together.
Along the way, Chu Lingjue and Butler Cheng were both quiet.
Gu Xiwan and Chu Lingjue sat side by side in the same row of seats.
Gu Xiwan knew that Chu Lingjue was feeling extremely sad at the moment. However, from the outside, this distinguished business king looked like an ice sculpture that would never show any emotion. Gu Xiwan was so close to him that she could not notice it. Find out what's different about him from usual...
Gu Xiwan also had such an experience.
She was stubborn in her bones. Many times, she clearly felt like her heart was being cut by a knife, but she resisted the pain and didn't want people to see her. However, the more she tried to hide it, the more dense and deep the pain in her heart became.
Gu Xiwan would rather Chu Lingjue not act so strong.
…
The next day, the funerals of Sheng Tianqing and Su Ruoshui were held as scheduled.
Many people came to the funeral.
Except for Chu Lingjue, Zhou Shutong, Guanjia Cheng, Chu Yujiao, and Shen Zijun, Gu Xiwan did not recognize most of the others.
In addition, Gu Xiwan's mother also came.
Chu Lingjue and Butler Cheng personally carried the coffins for Sheng Tianqing and Su Ruoshui.
Sheng Xinyi is still unconscious, but Sheng Xinyi is the only living direct relative of Sheng Tianqing and Su Ruoshui. In order to prevent Sheng Xinyi from missing her parents' funeral, Shen Zijun put Sheng Xinyi in a wheelchair and personally pushed her to the funeral of her parents.
Seeing this scene, Gu Xiwan felt inexplicably sad.
Nanshan Cemetery——
People from the south of Haicheng City are often buried here after death!
Just over a month ago, Gu Xiwan attended the funerals of Gu Shenhai and Zhang Yulian here, and Gu Baixue was also buried here...
Now they are Sheng Xinyi’s parents.
None of them died of natural causes.
As for Sheng Xinyi's life and death, no one knows who will be buried here next.
Seeing Gu Xiwan's sad expression, Zhou Shutong, who was by her side, gently held her hand and said,
"Wanwan, you are pregnant now and should stay away from such unlucky occasions. Just send your uncle and aunt here. You and your mother-in-law will go back first."
Gu Xiwan knew that Zhou Shutong had good intentions, so she nodded and helped her mother out of the cemetery.
Mu Yunian just walked out of the cemetery and said,
"Wanwan, does your stomach feel comfortable? Do you want to go to the bathroom?"
Gu Xiwan knew that her mother was becoming more and more like a child after she lost her mind. Her mother wanted to go to the bathroom but was too embarrassed to tell her directly, so she asked her this tactfully.
So, Gu Xiwan nodded and said,
"Mom, my stomach is really uncomfortable. I need to go to the bathroom. Do you want to go?"
"Well, let's go together." Mu Yunian nodded.
There are public toilets not far away.
Because of her pregnancy, Gu Xiwan's sense of smell had become extra sensitive since the day before yesterday. She really couldn't stand the smell in the public toilet. After sending her mother to the bathroom, she warned her mother and went outside the public toilet to wait for her mother to come out.
Not long after Gu Xiwan stood outside the public toilet, a magnetic and ethereal voice suddenly sounded not far away,
"Apprentice, is my cat okay?"
"..." Gu Xiwan was stunned.
Looking around, she saw Ye Ziming, who was wrapped in black and walking towards her like a shadow in the night, and her face couldn't help but reveal joy.
The next second, he pretended to be angry and said,
"Hmph! Master, I thought you had forgotten me as your disciple. How did you become a master? Why didn't you contact me for so long? Didn't you teach me self-defense techniques?
Also, you don’t ask me if I’m okay when you see me, but you care about your cat. Is your cat more important than your apprentice? "
At this moment, Ye Ziming had arrived in front of Gu Xiwan.
He has a cold aura, his handsome face is as expressionless as an artist's, and his pair of blue eyes that are so alluring are so cold that you dare not look directly into them.
However, when this extremely cold man looked at Gu Xiwan at close range, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I have been observing you since the moment you came to the funeral. I know you are fine and there is no need to care about you any more, but my cat...
What happened to it? "
Gu Xiwan turned from anger to joy,
"Don't worry, Master, every time I see your cat, it's like seeing you. I've raised it to be white and fat.
Oh, by the way, I don’t know whose cat it often sneaks out at night to fall in love with. She is pregnant now. Congratulations, Master, your cat will be a mother soon. "
"..." Ye Ziming's extremely handsome face was slightly distorted, and his Adam's apple rolled violently.
At this time, I heard Gu Xiwan continue,
"Master, you just said that you were observing me the moment I came to attend the funeral. So, you came earlier than me? What are you doing here?"
"Can't you even guess this?"
Ye Ziming tapped Gu Xiwan's head with his finger, and then pointed to the right back of Gu Xiwan,
"Have you forgotten that Sheng Tianqing is the lord's brother? The lord's brother and sister-in-law have passed away. How can he not come to their funerals?"
Gu Xiwan turned her eyes and looked in the direction Ye Ziming pointed, and sure enough she saw Sheng Yuxuan standing there.
A few minutes ago, Gu Xiwan had looked around. No one was around, and she didn't know when Sheng Yuxuan appeared.
Gu Xiwan clearly remembered that the last time she met her father, his father said he would never see her again. Now that she saw her father again, Gu Xiwan's eyes were filled with tears and she called out in a trembling voice,
"dad!"
