Chapter 300: Brother Cheng An
Gu Lei didn't speak. He had already coaxed Zhao Qianqian so much that he didn't know what to say.
He is reluctant to Xiao Ranran, he doesn't love Zhao Qianqian anymore?
How is this possible-but, he will never divorce Xiao Ranran to marry Zhao Qianqian.
That kind of courage to ignore a qiΔ for love, once in a lifetime is enough. After so many years of complacent, he didn't want to make any changes.
Even if Xiao Ranran's father died, he would not be as naΓ―ve as Zhao Qianqian to think that Xiao Ranran could do whatever he wanted without Xiao Junji's support, and reputation was also the most important link on the road to his career.
Think about it, the old man abandoned his wife and married his pregnant lover before his bones were cold, what a powerful handle to give to his opponent, enough to ruin all his efforts for so many years!
Gu Lei's silence finally made Zhao Qianqian realize that there was something wrong with her thoughts for so many years, she screamed uncontrollably, and said the fact that she never wanted to believe: "Gu Lei, have you never thought of divorcing her and marrying me?" You've just been lying to me for so many years? β
was told by Zhao Qianqian, and Gu Lei no longer made any cover-ups.
Sooner or later, it is better to let Zhao Qianqian accept this fact as soon as possible.
"Qianqian, back then, you asked me to go back to the Gu family and marry Xiao Ranran, you said that you don't want a name, you don't want anything, now, why do you say that I am lying to you?"
Gu Lei ruthlessly reminded Zhao Qianqian of what he had said back then, to plug Zhao Qianqian's mouth.
So far, he is not worried that Zhao Qianqian will leave him, in his opinion, a woman in her thirties who knows nothing, what good destination can she get if she leaves him? What's more, the woman who loved so deeply at the beginning, but now, he no longer has such a deep love.
Zhao Qianqian's dream for so many years. Instantly sobered.
It turned out that Gu Lei was just playing with her, and it turned out that he took everything he said back then seriously!
Who the hell lied to whom, and who is the fool?! After so many years of youth and injury, it turned out that he was just shameless and stupid, so he had to paste it upside down?
Zhao Qianqian's eyes flashed with crazy hatred: "Gu Lei." Well, since you say so, then you don't regret it! β
After speaking, she took the initiative to hang up the phone for the first time in a call with Gu Lei.
Gu Lei was even more impatient when he heard Zhao Qianqian's cruel words similar to threats. Zhao Qianqian has become more and more moody and a little nervous over the years, and he doesn't care if she speaks in such a tone, she doesn't care anymore, just let her cry a few times if she tosses herself.
Gu Lei turned out of the secluded place and saw his father head-on.
If it weren't for the fact that the Xiao family is full of people now, he really can't make a big deal out of it, and the old man of the Gu family can't wait to slap his son directly!
"Gu Lei, I thought you had something to do and just came over at this time, but I didn't expect you to be entangled with that Zhao Qianqian!"
Xiao Junji died. As an in-law, he was also one of the first people to receive the news, and he was originally going to call his son, but the Xiao family said that Xiao Ranran had already informed Gu Lei, so he didn't care.
Who knew that he had been there for so long before he saw his son late, and even if he was late, he hid in the corner and called that Zhao Qianqian!
Old man Gu almost didn't get sick because of his son's confusion: "Gu Lei, can you be sober and sober, this is the Xiao family, how many pairs of eyes are watching." Even if you don't understand Ran Ran's feelings, you can't get into trouble like this! I heard it today, but what if someone else heard? Have you ever thought about the consequences! β
was bumped into by his father and he still had a relationship with Zhao Qianqian, Gu Lei's first reaction was also scared into a cold sweat. Fortunately, this person is his father, if it is someone else, then ...... He secretly gritted his teeth and decided not to answer Zhao Qianqian's phone calls recently!
"Dad, let's go back and talk about it. Don't let Ran know about it! Gu Lei looked around, saw that there was no one, and begged his angry father in a low voice.
Although Old Man Gu gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, this is his own son, what can he do? He could only snort coldly, turn around and leave, and endured this matter.
Gu Lei also hurriedly followed, went to the main hall again, and knelt beside Xiao Ranran.
"Ranran, don't be too sad, Dad is old, birth, old age, sickness and death are a matter of time, you will have me ...... in the future"
The two of them were silent for a while, and Gu Lei finally decided to say something to comfort his wife.
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Ranran: "You don't have to comfort me, I know it in my heart." Dad is going to be sent to the crematorium later, I want to accompany him again, don't talk to me yet. β
Xiao Ranran's tone was very light, and he didn't mean to be impatient, but Gu Lei's heart suddenly felt depressed.
Didn't he think she was pitiful, but she was so unappreciative!
Xiao Ranran is Xiao Junji's old daughter, when she was born, her mother's age was already considered an advanced maternal age, not long after Xiao Ranran was born, her mother passed away, so she has been introverted since she was a child, she doesn't like to talk, in Gu Lei's eyes, Xiao Ranran is a piece of wood, which is also the biggest reason why he didn't want to marry Xiao Ranran in the first place.
Now that her father is gone again, she must be very sad in her heart, after all, she has been a husband and wife for so many years, Gu Lei saw that she was obviously very sad but silent, and she was also very worried, but this wooden lump really didn't know how to lift!
Gu Lei simply stopped talking in a fit of anger, the husband and wife knelt together silently, each thinking about their own thoughts, and looking in from the door of the main hall, they were also a couple who looked harmonious.
In the noisy crowd outside, there were three people from the Bai family and Lin Le, who had just come in.
As soon as they entered the door, they all came to the main hall to mourn Xiao Junji, and the main hall, which was originally quiet, soon became noisy.
When Xiao Mingming rushed over with Old Man Bai and Bai Chengyuan and Bai Suho, Lin Le's hind feet also happened to follow.
Old Man Bai, who usually walked steadily and slowly, hurriedly walked in a hurry, and almost stumbled into the main hall with the support of Bai Chengyuan and Bai Suhe.
There were only two husbands and wives in the main hall, Gu Lei and Xiao Ranran, as soon as the old man Bai entered the door, he saw an old friend who was lying peacefully, wearing a shroud, and he felt a pain in his heart when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him all his life, and the sad cry immediately resounded in the main hall.
"Brother, why don't you wait for me to leave, why are you leaving!"
Xiao Ranran immediately stood up and went over to support the grief-stricken old man Bai, but after kneeling for a long time, she shook when she got up. Gu Lei quickly helped her, but was quickly brushed away by Xiao Ranran.
"Thank you." She whispered politely and detachedly, and then went to help Old Man Bai.
Gu Lei looked at his empty hands, and the feeling in his heart was extremely weird.
How could Xiao Ranran suddenly look like this to him. It seems to be more perfunctory than usual, is it still angry that he is late?
Gu Lei stood in place and was shocked, sighing in his heart, it is not good to have such a stuffy gourd-like wife, you never know what she thinks. Always have to guess!
Xiao Ranran just held Old Man Bai, and was tightly grabbed by Old Man Bai: "Ranran, I'm late, how can your father be fine, I didn't hear any news yesterday!" How so! β
Xiao Ranran looked at the seventy-year-old old man Bai crying like a child, his face was full of tears, the pain in his heart was touched again, and the tears fell again.
She choked up and shook her head: "I just said that I was a little uncomfortable before, and he refused to let him go to the hospital, and he had to go to Brother Cheng's funeral yesterday." I didn't let me go, and he lost his temper, explaining that he couldn't go to see what had happened in your family recently, so how could he not go...... Suddenly he couldn't do it this morning, and when I got the news and rushed in, he was speechless......"
This explanation has been explained many times to Xiao Ranran, a relative and friend who came to inquire, but this time in the face of his father's old friend who he never forgot before his death, Xiao Ranran could no longer suppress the panic and grievances in his heart, and did not be as polite as others, but let himself cry bitterly.
Old Man Bai heard what Xiao Ranran said. was even more sad, crying and screaming, he threw himself next to Xiao Junji's body.
"Xiao Junji, you are younger than me, how can you die in front of me. How can you not wait for me to come and see you! β
Old Man Bai cried so much that his image was completely gone, and his mournful cry infected the relatives and friends of the Xiao family who followed up one after another.
Bai Suhe and Xiao Junji have never met, but now they can't help but have hot eyes and tears.
Lin Le couldn't control others, but when he saw Bai Suho, he also cried. He was also a little sad in his heart, and quietly stretched out his hand from behind Bai Soho, and silently patted her shoulder to convey his comfort.
Bai Suhe didn't need to look back to know that it was Lin Le, her body stiffened, and she didn't care about looking back, she was busy supporting Old Man Bai with Xiao Ranran left and right, preventing him from really pounced on Xiao Junji's body.
It's not that she didn't think about persuasion, but Old Man Bai's sadness is obvious, it's not that she can not be sad if she persuades a few words, and it is better to let Old Man Bai cry happily than to be sad and become a knot in her heart.
The people who poured in the main hall were also busy, although Xiao Mingming and Bai Chengyuan couldn't stop Old Man Bai from crying like this, but they also had to take the opportunity to persuade a few words, others also cried along, and some were busy persuading, Gu Lei also came over to greet the people who came to condole, and answered the greetings of others one by one.
Although Lin Le put ******** on Bai Suho, he couldn't do anything by himself, and when he raised his head, he saw Gu Lei walking towards him.
"Lin Le, your brother didn't come?"
As soon as Gu Lei spoke, he felt that something was wrong, he suddenly remembered the injury on Lin Hai's face, according to Old Man Lin's cautious character, he would definitely not let Lin Hai appear in front of people at this time.
Lin Le didn't know that Gu Lei and Lin Hai had already met, so he just nodded: "Well, my brother can't come for something, my grandfather and uncle will come over tomorrow as soon as they are free." β
"Well, thank you for coming."
Other than that, Gu Lei didn't say anything more, nodded and looked at Old Man Bai again.
He is not familiar with the Lin family, the newly returned second young master, and he is not a person in a circle, such a rich idler, and he has nothing to say to him, he came to talk to him on the one hand out of his own politeness as a half master, and on the other hand, because of the surprise in his heart.
From Lin Hai's narration, he knew that Lin Hai had just driven into the gate of the Bai family yesterday, but looking at Lin Le's appearance just now, it seemed that he didn't have any mustard with this eldest lady of the Bai family who he had never seen, but was a little close.
What is the situation, and why did Lin Hai go to the door of the Bai family? It's a pity that I didn't ask this, why don't you ask Lin Le later?
But the moment he saw his wife Xiao Ranran's face full of tears, he had nothing to think about.
She didn't cry or make trouble in front of him, but she cried like a child in front of others, could it be that to her, these outsiders were closer than his husband?
Also, she didn't say anything to him, why did she talk too much to Old Man Bai?
Gu Lei felt very uncomfortable in her heart, Xiao Ranran, what was going on, didn't she know that her father was gone, and she would have to rely on him in the future?
No matter whether Gu Lei's heart was right or not, and no matter how sad and sad the people who came were, Xiao Junji's body was still sent to the crematorium very smoothly, but in a short period of time, Xiao Junji, a once powerful political veteran, turned into a handful of ashes and was taken back home by his children.
When all the qiΔ was rearranged, it was already late.
Because Xiao Junji was also a high-ranking figure in Linhai City, a memorial service was held at Xiao's house the next day, so the people who came slowly dispersed, preparing to come over the next day to officially mourn.
After Old Man Bai cried bitterly, the grief that had been stored in his heart since hearing the news of Xiao Junji's death was finally relieved, and the whole person was not as emotional as before.
Bai Suhe quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and together with Bai Chengyuan, he persuaded Old Man Bai to go home first and come back the next day.
Under such a great sorrow, Old Man Bai's spirit was also a little poor, and he was persuaded by them all the time, so he agreed to go back first.
Bai Suhe just made time to say a word to Xiao Ranran, before Xiao Ranran was busy with her father's cremation, Bai Suhe was also busy taking care of Old Man Bai, and the two of them had never communicated seriously.
Xiao Ranran also had time to take a closer look at Bai Suho.
is still a very young girl, with a delicate appearance, a pair of black and white eyes as clear as water, standing next to the old man Bai is just like the demeanor of that person back then.
Xiao Ranran's eyes were a little trance-like, Brother Cheng's daughter, it seems that her appearance is with her mother, but the temperament of the whole person can still find traces of the person in her memory.
Bai Suhe also looked at Xiao Ranran, his lips opened and he didn't know what to call it.
On the way here, she already knew that Xiao Ranran was the only daughter of the Xiao family, and she was only in her thirties, and she had the heart to call Sister Xiao, but she heard Xiao Ranran call her father "Brother Cheng'an" in what she heard from Old Man Bai before, is it appropriate to call her aunt or something in this generation?
seemed to see Bai Suhe's embarrassment, Xiao Ranran rarely showed a shallow smile: "You are Su Su, you can call me Aunt Sheng." (To be continued.) )
