The funeral was held on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, and it had been raining since last night. The sky was overcast, with a cold wind blowing, wet and cold, which made the whole funeral even more heavy and depressing.

The Gu family didn't have many relatives, but as Xu Jing's famous family, most of those who had contacts with the Gu family attended the old lady's funeral. Even if they didn't come in person, they sent people to pay their respects.

Chu Chu got up very early, and when he was about to go out, his heart suddenly felt unwell, so he could only call the driver and ask him to rush to the house and drive Chu Chu to the funeral home.When Chu Chu arrived, the huge farewell hall was already full of people, and they found a seat in the back row and sat down quietly.

On the stage, Gu Wei presided over the whole process as the chairman of the Gu Corporation, with a solemn expression and remained calm from the beginning to the end, but everyone could see his heaviness and sorrow.

Chu Chu sat in the back, listening very carefully, his face was sickly pale, his eyes were fixed on the coffin on the stage, his expression was mournful, and the inescapable sense of weight made him look abnormally condensed.

Everyone who came to express their condolences could feel the oppressive solemnity of the funeral scene. After paying respects to the coffin, they bowed in front of Gu Wei and Gu Jing. Weep softly.

When it was Chu Chu's turn, his body froze, and after bowing deeply towards grandma's body, Chu Chu didn't get up straight for a long time, until Gu Jing stepped forward and pulled him over.

When the people around saw Chu Chu, they began to discuss in a low voice, after all, his identity was very special.It is reasonable to stand by Gu Wei's side as a relative, but he didn't. He was like an outsider at the funeral.

Chu Chu stood still in front of Gu Wei, looked at him, didn't say anything, just bent down and buried his head very low, silently paying respects.Gu Wei looked at Chu Chu with deep eyes. It took him a long time to reach out and pat him on the shoulder, and sighed, "Get up and stand beside me."

Chu Chu nodded, moved slowly, stood beside the other party, and accepted the greetings from the guests together with them.

The originally quiet hall suddenly caused a commotion. At the door, Chu Xuan was wearing a black dress, wearing sunglasses, and holding a bouquet of lilies in her hand. She stepped on high-heeled shoes and Shi Shiran walked in, completely ignoring the pointers from the crowd. point

.When passing by Chu Chu, Chu Xuan stopped for two seconds, glanced at Chu Chu, and sneered, "My good son!"

Putting down the flowers, Chu Xuan took off her sunglasses, looked at the coffin in front of her for a long time, the indifference on her face disappeared, and with a sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth, she said softly, "People like you probably won't be able to go to heaven. , maybe I can meet your precious son Gu Huai. You see, what I brought you is your favorite lily! I often dream of this day, and I can’t wait to attend your funeral. Although you were alive It’s mean to me, but I’m still willing to come and see you off. After all, it’s still worth celebrating when you see someone you hate go to the ground with your own eyes.”

"Hurry up, you are not welcome here, leave here immediately, grandma doesn't want to see your face." Gu Jing pointed at the door and stared at Chu Xuan with resentment on his face.

Chu Xuan didn't take it seriously, stared at the coffin, and laughed mockingly, "Look at your good grandson, how filial he is, he's not like Chu Chu. You must be very disappointed if you haven't seen him until your death, how could I let you Ruyi!"

"That's enough, let's go!" Chu Chu, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke out, looked at Chu Xuan coldly, with a cold light in his eyes, and warned heavily: "Don't make trouble ugly, Chairman!"

The smile on Chu Xuan's face slowly disappeared, and she walked up to Chu Chu step by step, with anger in her eyes, she suddenly raised her hand and waved towards Chu Chu's face, but stopped in mid-air.

Qin Yi stood beside Chu Chu, blocked Chu Xuan's raised arm, flung it away, stared at the other side, and said to Chu Chu in a cold tone: "I told you, if you want Remember to dodge."

"Okay, very good, Qin Yi!" Chu Xuan squinted at Qin Yi, with displeasure flashing in her eyes, and said coldly: "I'm going to teach my son a lesson, is it appropriate for Vice Minister Qin to rush out to complain about injustice? Vice Minister Qin, remember you status! Since you don’t see me as the chairman, what are you still doing in the company!”

"Chairman!" Chu Xuan just finished speaking, Chu Chu shouted, very dissatisfied with Chu Xuan's threat, "This is not the company, nor is it the place you should come to, please go back!" Qin Yi glanced at Chu Chu, with a deep expression, did not speak.

"Chu Chu, I warn you, you are my son, surnamed Chu, and have nothing to do with this old guy. This is not where you should come. Go back with me, and I will pretend nothing happened. If you don't Go, I will treat you as my son, from now on, don't step into the Chu family, step into the Chu family. I will trample on those who betray me, and I will never forgive you."

"Why do you embarrass him here! No matter Xiao Chu's surname is Chu or Gu, he is the eldest brother and your child. Blood is thicker than water, and this cannot be changed. What can you gain if you push each other like this?"

Pressing Chu Chu's shoulder, Gu Wei spoke in a deep voice, looking at Chu Xuan with deep and complicated eyes, full of resentment and pity, but without a trace of warmth.

Chu Xuan stared at the other party, as if she had heard a great joke, she let out a sarcastic laugh, and asked in a low voice: "Gu Wei, what qualifications do you have to judge me? What kind of person are you? If you are so Respect Gu Huai, why did you stay with me back then? Don't forget, I am your eldest brother's wife, oh, yes, we still have a child, although he died when he was born. "

Hearing this, Gu Jing's face was a little nervous, and he stood behind Chu Chu without being noticed. "Enough, Chu Xuan!" Chu Xuan's words touched the pain point, Gu Wei stopped sharply, his face changed drastically, and his anger gradually emerged.

"Today is Mom's funeral, I don't care what your purpose is, you go! Don't let people see the joke, I have nothing to say to you!"

"There's really nothing to say. The grievances between us will be settled slowly. I'm not in a hurry. Chu Chu, do you stay or follow me!" Chu Xuan snorted coldly, and cast her sharp eyes on Chu Chu, refusing to give in. Chu Chu must make a choice.

The scene in front of her reminded Chu Chu of that day, and she pressed her to ask whether she should stay in Gu's house or go with her.At that time, he chose Chu Xuan.But today, this scene happened again, and Chu Chu faced the same choice, which is really sad!

With a calm face, Chu Chu was full of thoughts, and his heart was turbulent and unable to calm down. He suddenly remembered what Xiao Tingjun said, people should follow their hearts and don't let themselves regret.

His eyes fell on the coffin on the stage, in which lay his relatives, his grandma, Chu Chu clenched his fist quietly, then let go, his eyes became firm, and finally spoke, looked at Chu Xuan, and said word by word: "You Let's go back."

Hearing Chu Chu's answer, Gu Jing beside him raised his head and stared at him intently, as if he couldn't believe what he heard. Slowly, a smile overflowed his face, and then quickly restrained himself.

Qin Yi stood beside Chu Chu, and remained silent from the beginning to the end. He was very calm, and his eyes did not fluctuate. He was not surprised by Chu Chu's choice, but looked at Chu Xuan with a little more coldness.

Chu Xuan's anger was obvious, she pointed at Chu Chu's face, her face was frosty, she gritted her teeth and reprimanded bitterly: "Okay, that's great! Since you choose them and want to fight against me, then from now on, don't step into One step away from the company, don't enter the Chu family's door again, I don't have your son, we have nothing to do with each other. Gu Chu, you will pay the price for your behavior today, a terrible price!"

"Chu Xuan, what are you doing! No matter what grievances you have with us, it has nothing to do with these children. After all, the person lying here is his grandma. There is nothing wrong with Xiao Chu coming here today. You have not allowed him to contact us for so many years. Is it not enough to sever ties? You must make it difficult for everyone to be satisfied?"

Gu Wei stepped forward, looked directly at Chu Xuan, his eyes were gloomy, his tone was tortured, and his voice was sour, "Xiao Chu is your son, so you can't be more tolerant to him, don't take your grievances on him, he is innocent of."

"Innocent? What about me? I'm not innocent?" Chu Xuan took two steps back, glared at Gu Wei, then pointed at herself, with the hatred on her face, she chuckled sadly, "Yes Your Gu family owes me! And you, Gu Wei, if you were willing to go with me at that time, it wouldn’t be like this, our son wouldn’t die, and I wouldn’t have to suffer so much. Shouldn’t I hate ?"

Gu Wei paused and looked at Chu Xuan indifferently. This is the woman he loved, resented, and hated. After so many years, he has already let go of it. Dissipated with time.

Seeing that Chu Xuan was still clinging to the past, Gu Wei sighed helplessly: "Clinging to the past will only make you more painful. The torment you are suffering is because you still can't let go of the past, and with hatred in your heart, you refuse to let go of the Gu family. And don’t let yourself go.”

"Let go of the past? It's easy to say! How do you want me to let go? That's right, I hate you all. I hate everyone with the surname Gu. I've finished what I have to say."

Chu Xuan slowly regained her composure, with condescending eyes and disdain, she put on her sunglasses again and left the hall gracefully.

Chu Chu didn't speak, and stood quietly behind Gu Wei, the expression on his face didn't change at all, and he hid it well.

Gu Wei patted him again as a comfort, "Go back and have a good chat with her, after all, you are mother and child, and the blood relationship cannot be separated."

Pursing her lips tightly, Chu Chu looked back at Chu Xuan's leaving back, expressionless, and murmured, "Unfortunately, she only has hatred."

Gu Jing couldn't hold back his excitement, and pulled Chu Chu's arm, "It's okay, you still have me! I'm also your relative, so I won't be like that woman. I will always support you."

"Shut up!" Gu Wei yelled loudly, staring at Gu Jing coldly, implying a warning.Gu Jing lowered his head slightly and didn't make another sound.

After the funeral, the guests left one after another.Gu Jing followed his father to deal with the follow-up matters, only Chu Chu and Qin Yi were still standing in the hall, and suddenly felt that the hand was held by the other party, it was very warm, with a stable force, Chu Chu turned his head, looked at Qin Yi, I don't know why.

"My condolences!" Holding Chu Chu's hand tightly, resolutely and full of strength, Qin Yi said in a deep voice, "I'll take you back."

Chu Chu nodded, did not break free for the first time, clasped the other's fingers, and clenched them lightly. At this moment, he only wanted to covet this warmth.
