C13 (1/2)

In just a blink of an eye, that image had turned into white paper. I couldn't hold it in any longer and immediately cried out for my grandfather's help.

It's not that I'm scared, it's that I'm scared. How could the image become blank? This was too much of a psychological blow to me. It only took a moment for the last bit of my courage to crumble.

However, what's fortunate is that after such a large commotion had occurred on my side, Grandfather finally rushed out in a hurry. Following closely behind him were Xiuqin and that man.

His grandfather's face was filled with anxiety and Xiuqin's face was filled with sadness. However, the man had a face full of disdain, as if her sweet dreams were being disturbed.

However, I couldn't care less about that. I scrambled towards my grandfather like a lifesaver, and I even forgot about the matter of me not being able to get out of the coffin. Or rather, I already got out of the coffin, so there was no use staying on top of it.

”Grandfather …” Grandfather, look... ”Gone,” I said breathlessly to my grandfather as I pointed back at the empty portrait. At this moment, the image that no longer had anything was like a flood in my eyes. I didn't even have the courage to look at it for a second.

”Speak properly, look at your weak future.” Grandfather angrily supported me as he looked in the direction of my finger. Just by looking at me, he clearly felt his hand that was holding me abruptly strength, causing me to feel pain from pinching.

However, I couldn't be bothered about that. I raised my head to look at my grandfather, only to see that his face was unexpectedly gloomy, his wrinkles were trembling nonstop, and his shriveled lips were opened but no sound came out.

It's bad, it's bad, ”this time, Grandfather not only didn't ask me anymore after seeing that he had repeatedly said a few bad things, he even turned his face towards Xiuqin. His eyes trembled a little as he looked at the panic-stricken her and asked,” There's no one else here right now, so tell me honestly, how did your husband die? ”

Hearing that, Xiuqin did not reply immediately. Instead, she and the man looked at each other, covered his face, and started crying again.

”Aiya, hurry up and say it.” Grandfather stomped his feet and impatiently urged.

”Master Ma, what's going on? Why are you asking this now?” The man seemed very calm. After glancing sideways at the portrait, he asked about his grandpa.

Grandfather opened his mouth and pointed at the side hall. ”Let's talk inside.”

Seeing that grandfather and the other two were walking towards the side hall, I also followed without hesitation. There was really no way to stay in this hall any longer.

”My husband died such a miserable death!”

Once they entered the side hall, Xiuqin had just sat down, and before she had the chance to explain how her husband had died, she let out a miserable cry. However, her grandfather did not make a sound.

”Master Ma, Xiuqin's husband died in a traffic accident. Aren't you asking about it at this time a little too cruel?” Before Xiuqin could explain her husband's death, the man instead opened her mouth and spoke with an extremely unfriendly tone.

I had originally thought that my grandfather would be unhappy to hear this, but it seemed that he did not hear the man's words. He said to Xiuqin in a low voice: ”The current situation is already out of my control, if you could say it out loud in time, there's still room for recovery. Otherwise, everyone would not be able to recover.”

”Don't be so scary, you wanted to be lazy just because you took the money …” The man instantly stood up and pointed at his grandfather, then hatefully started talking. But halfway through his sentence, he was stopped by Xiuqin.

”My husband died in a traffic accident, he was hit by a large truck and rolled down the cliff, the entire truck fell to the ground”, Xiuqin quickly finished her sentence, then sighed, wiped the tears off her face, and forced out a smile: ”I know that Master Ma has worked hard for this, if you feel troubled, then please go back and rest, I believe my husband is in good spirits and will not harm anyone.”

I was startled when I heard this, I never thought that Xiuqin would say such words at this time. You know, she was the one who begged Daddy to tell Grandma Yang for help back then, why did she suddenly change her mind?

The man beside me was also stunned. The expression on his face was the same as mine, but he didn't say anything.

However, even though I felt it was strange, I was still very happy. Since my boss has already spoken, what else can I do if not go back? He looked at his grandpa expectantly, hoping that grandpa would agree to leave as soon as possible.
