The rich man on the run: The gangster is so hard to get rid of
Chapter 23 The Memorial Service
Lingtang stayed up all night.
At seven o'clock the next morning, the maid knocked on her room door on time, "Miss, the clothes you will wear today have been ironed for you. Please freshen up as soon as possible."
At the end, he added, "Mr. Ling is already downstairs waiting for your meal."
Lingtang responded lightly, and by the time she finished washing, the servant had already left.
There was a black dress hanging on a makeshift clothes rack at the door of the room.
The color was really eye-catching. Ling Tang changed his clothes and went downstairs.
When she arrived at the restaurant, she happened to see Ling Xiao raising his wrist to check the time, looking in a hurry.
When she sat down, Ling Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at her, "The memorial service will start at ten o'clock. I will go first and the driver will take you to the scene first."
The food in her mouth tasted like chewing gum. She finally swallowed the food and gave him a cold response, "Yeah."
Hearing this answer, Ling Xiao raised his eyes again and looked her up and down. She was pale, her eyes were red, and the dark circles under her eyes were heavy.
Ling Xiao guessed that she didn't sleep all night last night, and it was hard for anyone to accept such a thing happening.
Ling Xiao stopped talking and stood up to leave.
Just as he was about to leave, Ling Tang suddenly raised his head and asked indifferently, "They are your parents too, aren't you sad?"
sad? This question suddenly came, and when he was engaged in sending it to the present, his busy scorched, there was no time to be sad.
Picking up the suit hanging on the chair, Ling Xiao sneered without raising his eyebrows, "Can sadness change everything?"
Lingtang was speechless, her brother was indeed cold-blooded.
When Lingtang arrived at the memorial service, it was already 08:30.
As soon as the electric side door opened, a slender hand stretched out in front of her. Lingtang was stunned and looked up, seeing Si Guanyu's handsome face.
He stood by the car and looked at her with a distressed expression, "I haven't seen her for many days, and I feel quite haggard."
Lingtang looked around and saw many people staring at them, including Si Guanyu's parents.
Looking at the hand he extended, Lingtang hesitated for a moment, feeling uncomfortable in front of so many people and raising his hand.
After all, to the outside world, they were still engaged.
After getting out of the car, Ling Tang wanted to take back her hand, but Si Guanyu noticed her intention in advance. He tightened his grip and held her hand firmly in his palm.
Seeing this, Si Guanyu's parents came forward and greeted her with concern.
Si's mother is a gentle and elegant woman. The moment she saw Ling Tang, she grabbed her hand and comforted her softly, "Tangtang, if you are sad, just cry."
This comfort made Lingtang's nose sore.
From the time she learned the sad news about her parents until now, Si's mother was the first person to comfort her.
But Lingtang knew very well that she couldn't shed tears on an occasion like today. Later, she and Ling Xiao would have to receive guests together.
She held back the tears that had not yet overflowed. Si Guanyu noticed something strange about her and put his arm around her shoulders. "I will accompany you to receive them later."
In Si Guanyu's view, a son-in-law is half a son. Although he has not officially married Ling Tang, their marriage is already a certainty.
Even if he accompanied Lingtang to receive guests today, he would not cause any criticism.
The venue was filled with yellow and white chrysanthemums, and many flower baskets and elegiac couplets were placed outside the venue. These elegiac couplets were sent by people who usually do business with the Ling Group.
Lingtang's grandfather started from scratch and was already over [-] when he got married. He only gave birth to a son, Ling Zhengshan, so the Ling family was small and had few relatives.
The memorial service was very simple, with only the portraits and urns of my parents placed in the main hall.
The two brothers and sister stood on the left side of the main hall, accepting greetings from the guests. Si Guanyu also stood beside her, holding her shoulders and refusing to let go.
The guests lined up to place chrysanthemums on the mourning hall, bowed to the brother and sister, and said, "My condolences!"
After receiving a condolence, the brother and sister also bowed in return, "Thank you!"
Ling Tang had been confused. She passively accepted all this, mechanically maintaining the same rhythm as Ling Xiao.
She couldn't even see the faces of these people clearly!
Until a familiar voice came to my ears, "Condolences!"
Ling Tang was shocked when he heard the sound, then raised his head and opened his eyes in disbelief.
His name blurted out in an instant, "Shen Peizhi?"
Shen Peizhi was wearing a suit and leather shoes, with a serious look on his face. He looked at Ling Tang, with an emotionless mist hidden in his dark eyes.
Standing next to Shen Peizhi were Gong Mi and Su Lan.
Seeing the man in front of him and his fiancée's unusual reaction, Si Guanyu tightened his grip on Ling Tang's shoulders and asked softly, "This is..."
Ling Xiao looked at the strange man in front of him, then turned to look at his secretary with questioning eyes.
Lisa quickly went through the guest list and photos in her mind, shook her head, and confirmed that they were not invited.
Gong Mi looked at the pale Ling Tang with a worried look on his face, "Lin Tang, I'm worried about you."
"Lin Tang?" Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Si Guanyu frowned and said coldly, "Tangtang, who are they?"
This question brought Lingtang back to her senses instantly. She thought for a moment and replied, "They are my friends."
Ling Xiao was a smart man. Hearing Gong Mi's Lin Tang voice, he instantly understood the clue.
He quickly reacted and helped Ling Tang tell a lie in front of Si Guanyu, "It turns out he is Xiaotang's friend!"
Even so, Si Guanyu was still half-convinced. He definitely heard the Lin Tang voice just now correctly!
Su Lan bowed towards them, breaking the embarrassment and said, "My condolences, both of you!"
The memorial service ended soon. Tomorrow, the ashes of Ling Zhengshan and his wife will be buried in Zhongshan Cemetery. Only a small number of relatives and friends were invited to the funeral.
The Si family couple had already left, but Si Guanyu stayed behind and accompanied Ling Tang to see off the last guest.
Ling Xiao had other things to deal with when he stayed, so he arranged for Lisa to send Ling Tang away first.
When she was about to leave, Lisa looked in a certain direction, and then said to Ling Tang, "Miss Ling, it seems that your three friends haven't left yet."
Following Lisa's line of sight, Shen Peizhi, Su Lan and Gong Mi were standing not far away, looking towards them.
The extended Rolls-Royce had already arrived, the electric side door opened, and Uncle Wang inside the car called out, "Miss, let me take you home first."
Lingtang stood there, looking at Shen Peizhi from a distance. She couldn't see his face clearly from such a long distance.
She remembered the day they were together, she was so close to him, and she didn't see his face clearly.
Lingtang had questions about why Shen Peizhi came here and how he knew she was here.
But these are not important, because Lingtang knows that they will never have any intersection in the future.
Si Guanyu let go of her hand and looked at her face, his expression getting colder, "Tangtang, do you want to say hello to them?"
Ling Tang turned around and coldly rejected the proposal, "No need."
Then, he got into the car without looking back.
The black Rolls-Royce slowly drove away. Shen Peizhi stood there, watching the shadow of the car leaving, and a low and cold voice sounded faintly, "It seems that she is really angry."
At seven o'clock the next morning, the maid knocked on her room door on time, "Miss, the clothes you will wear today have been ironed for you. Please freshen up as soon as possible."
At the end, he added, "Mr. Ling is already downstairs waiting for your meal."
