C30 Atonement
"You wish!" Is a cemetery a place where people live?
"It's fine if you don't want to go, but this photo -"
"I'll go!"
"Little aunt is straightforward. I'll delete the photo after you finish keeping watch."
"I hope you keep your word! Otherwise," she looked at Yan Xi Lou, "even if he protects you, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
The little girl gestured for her to go out.
Silence filled the corridor as Ye Yun Shang pushed open the door and mustered up the courage to stand in front of Ye Zhen Sheng and confess everything.
"What did you say?" Ye Zhen Sheng stood up with his walking stick as his eyes emitted a terrifying cold light.
"I was the one who informed the reporters." Although she was afraid of the old man, she had no choice but to tell him the truth for the sake of the photo.
"Nonsense!" Ye Zhen Sheng slapped her with all his might.
Ye Yun Shang's head tilted to the side, and blood could be seen at the corner of her mouth.
"Why did you do that?"
She did not say anything else.
Why did you do that?
She wanted Ye Xiao Xi to get out of the Ye Family! She just didn't like a bastard that came out of nowhere. Besides, this bastard had become the only legitimate grandson of the Ye Family! What right did she have?
"Yun, I'm so disappointed in you."
Ye Zhen Sheng shook his head and fell back into his chair. He was too embarrassed to even look at Yan Xi Lou. His Ye Family was also a famous family in City C, so how could something like this happen?
"Dad, I know I was wrong. Can't I go to the cemetery and atone for Xiao Zhou's sins?"
"Alright, you go! You better stay there for the rest of your life and let your ancestors teach you how to behave!"
Ye Zhen Sheng did not want to bother with her anymore. She went to the cemetery to guard Xiao Zhou's seven days, which was also an explanation for Yan Xi Lou.
"West Building, I've caused you a lot of trouble."
"Uncle, do you mind if I go to the Ye Family tonight to watch over Xiao Zhou for the last night?"
"What are you talking about? It's worth it for Xiao Zhou to have a friend like you!" Ye Zhen Sheng patted Yan Xi Lou's shoulder. It was unknown whether he was really happy that his son had such a friend or something else.
The Ye Family's mansion was quite luxurious. As soon as the old man's car drove in, someone came out to pick him up. These days, because of Xiao Zhou's death, the Ye Family had been shrouded in a cold atmosphere.
His mourning hall was set up in a small hall. There were not many decorations, but everything was exquisite.
The photo in the middle was taken on Xiao Zhou's thirtieth birthday. Xiao Zhou seemed to have a preference for Nakayama. Wearing such strict and plain clothes, he had a kind of unrestrained elegance.
As soon as Xiao He arrived at the mourning hall, he found a cushion and knelt down.
Li Yuan personally served her. He brought her a brazier and a thick stack of paper money.
She didn't know much about this. After all, this was the first time she had encountered it. Li Yuan patiently taught her to tear along the edge of the paper money. She couldn't break it in the middle, so she had to tear it into a stack of money.
"Take this paper and fold it into small clothes and shoes. Make it for Xiao Zhou yourself. It will be more sincere. He will be happy to receive it."
Speaking of Xiao Zhou, Li Yuan's eyes turned red. He had watched Xiao Zhou grow up and treated him like his own son. Xiao Zhou even joked that he would take care of him in the future.
How did he end up in front of this old man?
"Uncle Li, don't be too sad. Look at you. The stream is also - -"
Yan Xi Lou had been watching from the side, but as Li Yuan spoke, he wiped his tears. The little girl kept a straight face and did as she was told.
But look at her eyes, they were filled with tears, and her eyes were red!
"Yes, I'm not sad. Little stream, don't cry either. Crying too much will hurt your eyes." Li Yuan wiped his eyes randomly.
The little girl also rubbed her eyes and quickly tore the paper money.
"Yes, I'm not sad. I still have important matters to attend to!"
