The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1083 - Funeral 2

Chapter 1083 Funeral 2

It was very quiet inside Mu Yinan’s study room.
Mu Yuchen could sense the heavy atmosphere inside when he arrived at the door. It was suffocating. He paused, then took a deep breath before entering.
Mu Yinan was sitting before his table and looking at his photo with Wang Hui. He cleaned it again and again. Suddenly, he looked up and took off his glasses when he noticed Mu Yuchen enter. His voice sounded calm as he asked, “Why are you here? Aren’t you going to visit your grandmother?”
Mu Yuchen studied him before replying, “I’m heading over later. I’m just a little worried about Lingshi and you.”
As he blinked his dry eyes, Mu Yinan took a deep breath. “I’m fine. Your grandmother is still here with me. It’s just that I can’t see her. We’re old anyway, so it would’ve had to happen sooner or later. It just happened earlier than I expected. I never thought your grandmother would leave me. We’ve been together for over fifty years. I just feel empty inside now that she’s left me.”
“Don’t be too sad, and please take care of yourself. Don’t let Grandmother be worried about you over there too.” Mu Yuchen grabbed the photo frame from Mu Yinan. It was a photo of Mu Yinan and Wang Hui which was taken after they had snapped a family photo.
“I still have things to remind me of her. Your grandmother never actually left me. You guys don’t have to be concerned about me. I’m fine. I just need some time alone.”
Although Mu Yinan sounded calm, Mu Yuchen could notice that he was dazed. Nonetheless, he nodded. “Don’t worry, Grandfather, we’ll be there, and Lingshi will go and take a look at her too.”
“Take this and put it on your grandmother. It was my first gift for her. I want her to bring this with her. She might still remember it in our next life.” Mu Yinan opened a drawer and took a jade bracelet out to hand it over to Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen looked at him quietly for a while before taking it.
“Alright, I need some time alone right now. I’ll leave your grandmother’s funeral in your hands.” Mu Yinan took the photograph back from Mu Yuchen and put back in its original position. Then, he waved his hands, signaling for his grandson to leave.
Mu Yuchen shot him a worried glance as he took a light bow. “Grandfather, please take care of yourself.”
“I know. Go and see your grandmother!”
…
Mu Yuchen inhaled deeply.
His grandparents had been deeply in love, so Wang Hui’s sudden death was a huge blow to Mu Yinan. Mu Yuchen’s worries only grew when his grandfather became more withdrawn like this.
However, he did not want to bother Mu Yinan any further, so he gave some orders to the butler before heading downstairs.
…
The news of Wang Hui’s death reached the Gu family’s mansion in the afternoon.
When Gu Lingsha entered the living room, she saw Doris sitting on the sofa with a cat on her lap. The cat was Doris’ favorite. It was a purebred Persian cat, and its eyes looked sharp and crystal clear.
The television was showing the news reporting about the death of Wang Hui.
Doris silently watched the news, not seeming to be affected as she casually petted her cat. She was the perfect example of a noble dame.
“Mother!” Gu Lingsha walked slowly towards her and sat down beside her.
“Don’t call me that. You don’t even see me as a mother anymore,” Doris glanced at her coldly and said.
Troubled, Gu Lingsha quickly sat closer and grabbed Doris’s hands. “I’m sorry, Mother. I didn’t mean to argue with you, but things are already set between Ah Feng and me. Weiwei has already grown up too, and she needs a father. We were forced to get registered first because we were worried that you might not agree…”
“Forced!? Gu Lingsha, you’re an idiot for not listening to me. You wouldn’t have ended up like this if you listened to me! Do you think you guys have grown up now? Do you think you can still play these men like your toys? Dream on! You’ll just be used!”
Gu Lingsha was shocked by Doris’s sudden raised voice.
“That won’t happen! You have to believe in Ah Feng! He’s really nice to me, and he really loves Weiwei too…”
“Don’t mention Weiwei in front of me! Do you really think she can inherit you with her condition like that? Why can’t you use your brain more? Do you really think Qi Feng cares about you now? Do you think he’d prefer to have no one inheriting the Qi family? Even if he’s fine, what is the Qi family going to say?”
Doris started laughing before Gu Lingsha could even reply. “Just wait until he takes over Qi Kai and merges it with the Hui Gu Corporation. Then, you’ll become of no value. Why can’t you see through such a simple trick?”
“That’s not going to happen! Even Father says Qi Feng is great. Father wouldn’t lie to me.” Gu Lingsha tried to convince Doris.
Doris instantly put on a mocking smile. “Your father? Gu Qiwu? Do you think I don’t know what he is thinking?”
“Mother…” Gu Lingsha noticed the coldness in Doris’s eyes.
“Shasha, I hope you can think this through. Don’t become the sacrificial lamb. I wanted you to abort Weiwei because I didn’t want what’s happening to happen! You’d have been part of the Mu family now if you had listened to me back then. Why are you so silly? Why do you think I’m pushing your father so hard? Can’t you see that it’s for your sake?”
An intense light flashed in Doris’s eyes.
