Chapter 1058 - Chapter 1058: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (143) (2/2)
Perhaps if Xu Chengfeng had not expected this, he would not have returned even if his grandfather had died.
They returned to the Xu family’s house without a word. There were many cars parked outside the Xu family’s house. There should be many people at home at this time. When Zuo got out of the car, he looked at the Xu family’s house. Mother Wang and Uncle Chen were not members of the Xu family. They were only responsible for sending them here and did not intend to go in.
Xu Chengfeng walked in front while Zuo Yue walked behind him. The two of them looked as if they really had nothing to do with each other. It was as if nothing had happened as they walked through the door calmly.
When Xu Yuan saw them, she quickly walked over and pulled Zuo Yue over. When she saw Zuo Yue’s eyes that looked like she had cried, she immediately hugged her daughter with heartache.”Go up and rest first. I have something to say to your uncle.:
Zuo Yue did not utter a word, nor did she turn around to look at Xu Chengfeng. She walked in quickly and left their side as if she was escaping.
Xu Yuan turned around and looked in the direction of the left moon, then turned to Xu Chengfeng.””Chengfeng, a few people from the board of directors have already come today. Because Dad has just passed away, there are some things that they can’t say, but their attitude is very clear.”
Xu Chengfeng glanced at the people from the Xu family who had come to prepare for the funeral.”I know.”
“Let’s go out and have a chat.”
When Zuo Yue ran up the stairs, she did not return to her room immediately. She stood at the top of the stairs and looked down. When she saw her mother and uncle walk out, she took a deep breath and turned to go back to her room.
*****
Two days later.
Grandpa’s funeral was neither grand nor low-key. Everything was done according to Grandpa’s preference.
Zuo Yue walked out of the auditorium. She was only wearing a black dress, and she was instantly bathed in the cold wind outside the auditorium. However, she was not in a hurry to go back. At this moment, everything was over. The board of directors had already begun to debate and pursue the various aspects of the Xu Corporation.
She could not be bothered to listen. Besides, she had nothing to do now. Although Xu Chengfeng had planned to let her inherit the Xu Corporation’s business, her mother did not have such plans, so she did not have to participate too much for the time being.
As for the future…
Zuo Yue raised her hand and gently rubbed the goosebumps on her arm that had been frozen. She would talk about the future later.
She had just walked to a bench in the square outside the auditorium. The bench was a little cold, but at least it was not snowing now. In the cold air, Zuo Yue’s black dress did not look so eye-catching, and it was easy to be annihilated by the people who came and went to mourn.
Suddenly, a black figure walked over.
For the past two days, everyone in front of Zuo Yue was wearing either black or white clothes. After looking at them for a while, she looked up and saw that it was Little John who had accompanied Uncle John’s family today.
John Junior looked down at her thin dress, took off his black coat, and handed it to her.”Then, put it on.”
Zuo Yue did not take it and shook her head.””I’m not cold.”
“Even if you’re in a bad mood, there’s no need to sit in the cold wind. If you’re sick, it’ll only be worse.”John Junior said as he put his coat behind her and sat beside her.”When my grandfather passed away a few years ago, I was also very sad, but everyone has a life of birth, old age, illness, and death. It’s good to be optimistic. When you’re old, you have a home to return to. Perhaps my grandfather just went to heaven to enjoy life and doesn’t have to worry so much in the human world.”
