27

On the day of the funeral, gray and cloudy clouds crawled across most of the sky, without a ray of sunshine, and it was so gloomy and depressing that people could not breathe, but it was just right for the situation at this time.

Shi Zhe walked ahead holding the portrait, with a solemn expression.Shi Hao followed closely behind him holding a half-person-high long incense stick, his face still full of gloom.

During the burial, there was a sudden light rain in the sky, as if someone was crying softly.Winter rain is icy cold and penetrates into people's skin, making it even more difficult for people to bear.

Shi's mother next to her was already sobbing, crying loudly: "Master, why did you leave, what will I do in the future..." She looked almost fainted, and the servant next to her was scared out of her wits. Eight feet to support her.

"Brother, do you want an umbrella?" As the rain was getting heavier, Shi Hao handed him a black umbrella from the side.

"No need." Shi Zhe shook his head, glanced at Shi's mother who was still crying, and said softly, "You should take good care of your mother."

A look of shame, resentment and unwillingness flashed across Shi Hao's face. He silently retracted the umbrella, but the fingers holding the umbrella handle turned white.

Looking at the tombstone under the heavy rain, Shi Zhe didn't cry, and couldn't shed any tears, but suddenly felt absurd in his heart.This person, no matter how brilliant he was or how many things he has done during his lifetime, his ultimate destination is to hide in a small world, in the dark, waiting to be slowly rotted and decomposed.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

Originally, according to the rules, his parents should be buried together, but neither he nor his mother was willing to do so.A pair of resentful couples have tortured each other for so long during life, do they still entangle each other after death?And his mother was even more straightforward. Before she died, she ordered to be cremated, burned herself thoroughly with a raging fire, and even sprinkled her ashes into the sea.A real downer, leaving nothing behind.

Later, he chose his mother's memorial tablet in a more remote mourning hall, which can be regarded as returning her purity.

After all the ceremonies were over, Shi Hao came over, suddenly smiled at him, and said in a strange way: "Brother, we will be opponents after this, I am really looking forward to it."

Shi Zhe responded indifferently, "Oh."

"Don't you expect half of it?" Shi Hao still had a smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on him.

"What I mean is," Shi Zhe said after a pause, "you are not worthy of being my opponent."

Shi Hao was stimulated by his contemptuous glance, and he smiled after a while and said, "Okay, let's wait and see."

Seeing his cloudy and sunny appearance, Shi Zhe sometimes felt that he was more like a mental patient than himself.

According to the rules, there should be a feast and fast at night, but Shi Zhe didn't want to stay with them for a moment, so he simply went back to his house and went straight to his own home.

As soon as you enter the door, you will be greeted by the smell of food.Shi Zhe walked into the kitchen, stretched out his hand, lowered his head, locked him firmly in his arms, took a deep breath and said, "I've been waiting for a long time."

It seems that no matter how many long journeys, just to wait for this moment.And from the moment he saw him, all the tiredness and gloom around him were swept away.

"You arrived earlier than I thought." Wang Zicai smiled and gave him an elbow, "Go out and wait."

"If one day I die, you can burn me." Shi Zhe said like this without thinking.

Wang Zicai was taken aback for a moment, and said again, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm serious." Shi Zhe said, "You promise me first."

Wang Zicai knew that he was going to funeral for his father today, so he would inevitably have feelings in his heart, and his mood would fluctuate greatly. He couldn't help worrying and asked: "I promise you, how do you feel now?"

"It's okay." In fact, on the way back, his mind was still a little chaotic. At one moment, it was the picture of his father in the hospital bed, and at the other moment, it was the scene of his mother lying in a pool of blood, and it was difficult to rest in peace. Memories are intertwined and entangled, making his heart far less calm than it seems on the surface.But it was strange to say that the moment he saw Wang Zicai just now, he actually felt an unprecedented peace in his heart.

"That's good." Wang Zicai let go of his hanging heart, and said, "Don't talk about it first, otherwise the food will be mushy."

"I'll help you." Shi Zhe said, rolling up his sleeves and laying hands beside him.

Wang Zicai peeked at him, with a subtle sense of dislocation between the two.In the past, Shi Zhe was in charge, and he was helping him blindly, but now he is helping him.

Shi Zhe saw that he was inexplicably laughing, and couldn't help asking, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing." The corners of his mouth still maintained an upward arc.

At the dinner table, Wang Zicai couldn't stop picking up food for him, so Shi Zhe said helplessly, "Enough is enough."

Wang Zicai looked at his face, and said distressedly: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why do I feel that you have lost weight again?"

"Get busy." Shi Zhe said, "It should be better after a while."

Wang Zicai knew that he was physically and mentally exhausted dealing with his father's affairs.He was silent for a moment and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

After today, a war without gunpowder is about to start.Even though he told Shi Hao that he was no match in the afternoon, in fact, his power should not be underestimated.Shi Zhe's face darkened, and he said, "Let it take its course."

"Well, just let nature take its course." Wang Zicai said with a smile instead of interfering in his family's affairs, "Let's not talk about this, let's eat first, eat more."

Although Shi Zhe said that it might be better after this period of time, in fact, in the days that followed, he was busier than before.On the one hand, Shi's father made a will to give Shi Zhe all the shares in his hand, which means that Shi Zhe will return to the Shi Group, and he is very busy with the handover and handling of official affairs.On the other hand, although Shi Zhe has become the temporary successor of the Shi family, there have been negative rumors and doubts all the time. In addition, Shi Hao's power should not be underestimated, and it is impossible to let it go. It must be done.

Even knowing this, Wang Zicai still hated himself for being helpless, and could not help him at all.Seeing him coming home almost at two o'clock in the morning every day, and sometimes simply staying overnight at the company, Wang Zicai felt distressed, but there was nothing he could do.

Fortunately, Shi Zhe's condition is relatively stable and has not deteriorated much despite the death of his relatives, busy affairs, and constant fighting, which makes Wang Zicai feel very relieved.

But Shi Zhe wasn't the only one who was busy, Wang Zicai was also called back to work by his brother.There was an unformed idea in his heart, and he simply asked Zhou Tao to come out for an interview.After a long talk, because of this idea, this time, he studied with his brother more attentively, and his brother was also very surprised.

"Before, I really disagreed with you returning to Shi Zhe's side." Wang Zixian said with emotion, "But now it seems that I should feel relieved."

Wang Zicai raised his eyebrows: "Only a little?"

Wang Zixian said: "Of course, who made you so uneasy all the time."

Because of the lessons learned from previous convictions, Wang Zicai couldn't refute, so he had to shrug his shoulders helplessly, but smiled and said nothing.

For now, life is fairly peaceful, but it is precisely because of this tranquility that people feel uneasy inside, as if it is the eve of a storm, and they inadvertently smell the imminent storm.Everything seems to hide more turbulent waves and treacherous waves under the seemingly peaceful appearance.

"Young Master Shi." One day, Dr. Cheng, who was in charge of taking care of Shi's father, suddenly called Shi Zhe, "Is it convenient for you now? I want to talk to you face to face."

The moment I hung up the phone, the bad weather turned even worse.Suddenly a strong wind started to blow outside, blowing sand flying all over the ground, and even the windows trembled and trembled.Clouds quickly enveloped the entire sky at a speed visible to the naked eye, getting lower and lower, and piling up.In an instant, a flash of lightning split in midair, piercing the sky.

Shi Zhe looked at the surging winds and clouds outside the window, and couldn't help whispering to himself, "Is it finally going to change?"
