Chapter 241 Funeral Scene



Chapter 241 Funeral Scene

As Su Qi and Gu Xing arrived at the backyard, they found a pool of blood and everyone was busy calling for an ambulance.

Fear, heartache, and confusion overwhelmed him, and Gu Xing shook his head in disbelief: "Sister...why..."

"You've already taken everything back, why are you trying to kill yourself?"

Gu Xing squatted down and helped her up; her shattered head looked so pitiful and pathetic.

Su Qi seemed to understand, finally closed her eyes, and took a deep breath: "May you have a safe journey..."

After Gu Yan's body is identified, it will be sent to the funeral home. Families from all over the city who had been on good terms with the Gu family will attend the mourning ceremony.

Gu Xing, dressed in a black suit with a white flower pinned to his chest, greeted the crowds who came to pay their respects.

"Although Mr. Gu is now in charge of the Gu family, he has been quite controversial recently, but fortunately his sister did us a lot of good things when she was alive."

"I only came because of his sister."

As everyone chatted in the hall, Su Qi walked over, and people around her made way for her.

"Su Qi? Isn't that our Hong Kong's new top female star?"

"Isn't it inappropriate for Miss Su to get involved in this mess?"

She didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded.

A few hours ago, she discovered a set of items that Gu Yan had left for Gu Xing at the Gu family's old house.

"Gu Xing, I have something for you."

Gu Xing slowly turned around, pursed his lips, and said, "Wait for me a moment, I'll burn some paper money for my sister..."

Su Qi stood outside and joined him in burning the paper money in the stove.

"Your sister... is suicidal; it should be considered a mental illness."

Gu Xing chuckled twice after hearing this, not particularly surprised: "I heard what you and my sister said that day, I know."

"My sister said she hates me..."

"I never imagined she would hate me for something like this..."

Su Qi gently patted his shoulder: "Do you feel like she's using you?"

Gu Xing looked at Su Qi and asked in return, "Isn't that right?"

Su Qi smiled and shook his head: "If she really was using you, would you still be alive and well now? With a face like yours, you could make a fortune even if you went into the sex industry."

Gu Xing coughed lightly after hearing this: "Stop teasing me..."

She took out something she found at the Gu family's house from her bag: "This was left to you by your sister. I'm sorry for entering your house without permission, but this was left on the coffee table in the living room."

"While everyone's here, why don't you open it and take a look? It'll be good to announce it publicly."

Gu Xing opened the documents and the contract with Gu Yan's name on it, and his eyes widened suddenly: "Sister...she transferred all her assets to me?"

Su Qi picked up the contract in his hand and announced in front of everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Gu Yan transferred the Gu family's assets and all properties to Mr. Gu Xing's name before her death. The evidence is here and will be made public to prevent anyone from saying that Mr. Gu embezzled the funds."

No one said anything, thinking that Gu Xing was Gu Yan's younger brother, so it was normal to transfer the money to him.

Gu Xing couldn't stop crying in front of his sister's portrait. When they were down on their luck, Gu Yan didn't object to him doing that kind of thing. He thought that to her, her brother was just a tool. But he didn't expect that when faced with a big problem, Gu Yan's first thought was still her brother.

The door opened again, and a tall man blocked the light in front of the venue.

Su Qi turned around and saw Shen Chaohuai: "Why are you here?"

"I thought you should be here, so I came." Shen Chaohuai's throat moved slightly, his expression was very heavy. He took a deep breath, stepped forward, politely burned three incense sticks, and slowly kowtowed three times.

He patted Gu Xing's shoulder lightly, then walked to the side.

To Gu Xing's surprise, all the artists in the industry who had previously been at odds with him came.

Li Yancheng came to offer his condolences and then lit three incense sticks.

The funeral attracted a large number of media outlets, and the area in front of the funeral home was packed with people.

Xu Xiaowan got out of the car and came with her father, Xu Qiyuan.

Gu Xing shook hands with the two men. Many of the films Gu Xing had made in the past were directed by Xu Qiyuan, so their relationship wasn't too bad.

"Thank you all for coming to see my sister..."

Xu Xiaowan received some news from the industry and complained to a few people in front of her: "Now everyone in the industry knows that Gu Xing's sister has passed away, but I think there are more people pretending to be deaf and dumb."

"And Zheng Xin, didn't she say she wouldn't marry anyone but Gu Xing? Why isn't she here?" Xu Xiaowan rolled her eyes.

"Her? Would she dare to come? There are so many media outlets outside; they'll probably say she's just putting on a show to revive her career." Li Yancheng shrugged.

After hearing this, Gu Xing lowered his eyes and turned to leave again.

“The Zheng family is also on the verge of collapse, so she can’t come,” Shen Chaohuai said.

Su Qi touched the tip of his nose: "Yeah, what happened last time was enough to make Zheng's previous partners terminate their contracts in order to avoid suspicion. Zheng's family has invested so much, they've suffered a huge loss this time."

Su Qi looked at Shen Chaohuai, suddenly thought of something, and then smiled meaningfully.

Shen Chaohuai felt a little guilty under her gaze: "What are you laughing at?"

Su Qi shook his head helplessly: "Come out with me."

Shen Chaohuai followed Su Qi outside the funeral hall, his hands in his pockets: "Little Qi..."

"Shen Chaohuai, before me, your mother came to you asking to be taken in, right?" Su Qi asked, "Why didn't you agree?"

Although she knew the reason, Su Qi just wanted to tease him, as if she wanted to see him panic.

Fearing she would discover his true identity, Shen Chaohuai could only conceal it, saying, "I'm not from this world. I've told you that before, Xiaoqi. I'm on your side. They hurt you, how could I possibly show mercy to them?"

That's a good explanation, Su Qi couldn't help but curl his lips.

"You're from my world? Then what are you to me?"

Su Qi looked at Shen Chaohuai, making Shen Chaohuai feel a little embarrassed.

Shen Chaohuai said in a very flustered manner, "I am your... probably a friend."

"Friends?" Su Qi hesitated for a moment, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Su Qi, don't worry, trust me, I won't hurt you," Shen Chaohuai said anxiously, pacing back and forth, afraid she would overthink things. "I've already told you I'll tell you the truth slowly..."

Su Qi covered her mouth and laughed.

"What are you laughing at now? Are you playing a trick on me?"

Su Qi shook his head helplessly: "It's nothing."

She suddenly realized that the current Fu Changheng was different from the one she remembered. The cold, ruthless, and decisive CEO was now so humble in front of her.

In her mind, Fu Changheng was the most likely person in the entire galaxy to shake her position. She treated him as a subject, but was always on guard against him.

The man in front of her had always been her biggest worry.

Su Qi gently stroked the stray hairs by his ear: "Shen Chaohuai, you look very familiar..."

Shen Chaohuai was suddenly stunned. Su Qi had regained his past self, and with his self-destruction after erasing her memories, she could easily confirm his identity.

So Shen Chaohuai, having no other choice, decided to take the plunge and go all out.

"No need to say anything more, I'll tell you the truth. I'm not helping the Shen family. You're curious why I'm only helping you, aren't you?"

“Actually, I am…” Shen Chaohuai gritted his teeth: “Actually, I am…”
