"The cemetery here, is there still someone coming to worship and clean it?"

"Mr. Zhao, many of the tombs here are workers who drowned after the bridge collapsed. Some of them were only eighteen or nine years old when they died. They didn't have wives, and of course they didn't have children. Most of the people who came to pay homage were bereaved. elder."

"There is only one tomb where the husband and wife are buried together. There is a young man who should be their son. He brings many things here every year to pay homage."

Zhao Liang's complexion improved a little: "That's not bad, most of the migrant workers' families in other places are very poor, and the compensation for moving the cemetery can save a lot of money."

Finally, Mu Nanyu couldn't help but interrupted him.

"It's pitiful enough for the elderly and white-haired people to give away black-haired people. Now that their children have been buried in the ground, it will cost a lot of manpower and financial resources to move the cemetery. Can't we give up building this villa?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the few people accompanying him all showed embarrassment, and looked at Zhao Liang with some helplessness.

Zhao Liang reprimanded immediately: "Children are just ignorant. It would be a pity if such a good piece of land is abandoned because of so many graves!"

"That requires the consent of the families of the deceased!"

"Hmph, you're still studying, you haven't entered the society and don't understand. As long as you give me a little more money, how can anyone disagree--show me the registers of these cemeteries."

"Alright Mr. Zhao, wait a moment, I'll get it for you right away!"

Zhao Liang rubbed his hands, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this land was worth developing.

"When the cemetery here is removed, some flowers and plants will be planted in this area. When the time comes, there will be more people coming to see it, and some yang energy will be accumulated. In the future, we can develop it into a commercial street together."

"I've taken this list back. Let people contact the families of the deceased as soon as possible. We can talk about the money for the relocation of the cemetery."

Mu Nanyu pressed the corners of his eyes, his Adam's apple rolled a few times, and barely swallowed a few dirty words: "Show me the roster."

"Nanyu, if you have the heart, Dad will let you work with the person in charge of this project. It's just a good time to exercise. Dad is just a son like you. In the future, Dad's company will definitely be handed over to you..."

"Boom" thunder sounded extremely abrupt in late autumn, and the surrounding darkness shrouded in dark clouds was suddenly pierced by a bolt of lightning, flashing a smear of scarlet light.

Mu Nanyu took the roster and quickly searched for familiar names, and sure enough, he saw Bai Jingtan's name in the column of relatives of a young couple.

More than ten years ago, Bai Jingtan was an eight-year-old child with immature handwriting, but he signed his name on such a thing.

The heartbeat stopped for a moment, and then the pain spread out, spreading along the bone marrow and flesh all the way to the limbs and bones, making him a little out of breath.

This matter should be discussed with Bai Jingtan as soon as possible. With Bai Jingtan's character, he should not easily agree to relocate his parents' grave...

"I'm not interested in your company's affairs." After Mu Nanyu hastily read it, he immediately handed back the roster and walked towards the cemetery by himself.

"This child..." Zhao Liang muttered helplessly, "Forget it, let's leave him alone, the place is wide here, he can't be lost, he will come back after running for a while, let's move on."

Mu Nanyu was holding an umbrella, and the gust of wind and rain splashed all over his body and face, blurring his vision a bit.

He took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and sent a WeChat message to Bai Jingtan.

【Where are you now? 】

[Bai Jingtan: I'm looking at my parents, what's the matter, have you arrived at school yet? 】

[No, I will explain in detail after meeting with you. 】

As long as Bai Jingtan is still in the cemetery, the cemetery here is not big, he can quickly find someone after running for a few minutes.

Mu Nanyu walked quickly along the path in the mountains, walked to a place with a wide view and looked down, and soon saw a tall figure holding an umbrella from the vast rain.

He distinguished the direction, and quickly ran towards Bai Jingtan.

"Baijingtan!"

He didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear of disturbing the dead souls sleeping here.

The rain was loud, and Mu Nanyu ran until he was less than ten steps away from Baijingtan before calling his name.

Bai Jingtan seemed a little unbelievable, he was startled for a moment, and then slowly turned around, when he saw his figure, his long and narrow phoenix eyes suddenly overflowed with gentle warmth.

All of a sudden, his cold body soaked by rain warmed up.

"Bai Jingtan... Are you surprised that I'm here?"

"Come here, your shoulders are wet."

Bai Jingtan took a step forward and dragged him under his umbrella, lightly stroked his wet shoulders, and slightly frowned.

"We have to go back quickly. If you don't take a shower and change quickly like this, you will definitely catch a cold."

"No hurry, I haven't said hello to my uncle and aunt yet—and I have something very important to tell you."

Mu Nanyu and Bai Jingtan walked side by side to the tombstone, and first bowed respectfully.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, I'm Mu Nanyu, from Baijingtan—"

"It's my boyfriend. I've already told my parents."

Mu Nanyu looked at him and smiled: "Is there any paper money or incense? I want to pay my respects."

"It's already used up, I'll bring you to pay a formal memorial next time—Xiaoyu hasn't told me yet, why are you here?"

He had never brought Mu Nanyu here before, and Mu Nanyu probably didn't know the location of his parents' grave.

"It's a long story, but let me make a long story short. Didn't my father take me to the suburbs for inspection today? The inspection site is just a hill away from here, so I'm here."

"Come here for inspection?"

"Yeah - I'll tell you the details later, wait a minute, I'll send a message to my dad and tell him that I'm going back first."

When they got into the taxi, both of them were drenched in water.

He did it purely by himself, Bai Jingtan kept throwing the umbrella towards him when he accompanied him down the mountain, and that's why he was so cold.

Bai Jingtan took off his glasses, without the cover of the lenses, his amber phoenix eyes became colder and more dazzling.

"My coat is also wet, there is nothing to cover you for now..."

"It's okay, let's have a bowl of ginger soup when we go back, it should be fine—"

Mu Nanyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"My father said that he wants to develop this place as a tourist villa, and this cemetery is also in the planning of the villa, so - he wants to pay compensation to move all the tombs here."

He observed Bai Jingtan's expression, and caught a hint of sullenness without any surprise.

"I looked at the roster of the cemetery here and saw your name, so I came here to look for you... What should I do? I persuaded him, but he has always been in the eyes of copper coins. I guess he is determined to give up. This cemetery."
