Han Chen pursed his lips and asked, "You didn't even tell me or my mother about the funeral because you didn't want the news to leak out and you were afraid that someone from the Han family would make trouble, right?"

Zhou Mo's throat hurt: "Yeah."

Han Chen: "Although it's useless to say sorry, but... I still apologize to you for my grandfather."

Zhou Mo: "No need."

Han Chen: "Because it's meaningless, right?"

Zhou Mo: "No. Your grandfather didn't get anything good from me, but I made him very angry. He's getting older, and I don't want to be teased or blackmailed. You'd better keep an eye on him and tell him not to come."

Look for me. You know I'm a nail, so don't step on me deliberately, otherwise you'll get tetanus and have to rely on me to pay for the vaccine."

Han Chen was speechless.

Zhou Mo's cold-heartedness mode was launched, and even he couldn't guarantee that he could cover up her heart that was sealed by the iron wall.

She became cruel and the words she said were poisonous and heartbreaking.

It's more painful and suffocating than a real knife sticking into a person's body.

After finishing the incense, the two stood side by side in silence, with a body distance between them, as if they were two complete strangers.

A few days ago they were still talking, laughing, loving each other, and making love to each other, but now things have completely changed.

Not only Zhou Mo, but also Liu Xiangru also avoided his eyes, wanting to look but not daring to look.

That awkward expression made Han Chen's chest hurt.

But that's not all the changes in the two families happened.

Liang Xinyun came in a hurry. After the memorial ceremony was completed, she burst into tears.

She pulled Liu Xiangru and kept saying sorry, but Liu Xiangru, except that her eyes were a little wet, didn't seem to support Liang Xinyun.

Perhaps allowing them to come to express condolences was Zhou Mo and Liu Xiangru's last act of tolerance.

It will never be possible for them to restore the good-neighborly friendship they had before.

Liu Xiangru was no longer as friendly as before, and tried her best to persuade her with restraint: "Letting you and Han Chen come is the last limit we can do. There will be a banquet later, so we can't entertain them."

Liang Xinyun: "Don't say that, Sister Xiangru, I understand, I understand everything. I will take Han Chen away and let you give Momo's father a good ride."

Now that things have happened, what else can be done?

The deceased was Da Da, Zhou Mo lost her father, and Liu Xiangru lost her husband.

Anyone with compassion and conscience can also understand how painful they are at this moment.

And although she and Han Chen have a good relationship with them, they are still members of the Han family after all.

This cannot be changed no matter what.

Come out of the funeral venue.

Han Chen was full of pain, and he asked Liang Xinyun: "Mom, what should I do now?"

Liang Xinyun stepped forward and hugged him.

"I don't know either. Give them some time. Now is the saddest time for them, so let's not add to their worries."

Han Chen: "Have you gone to see Fourth Brother?"

Liang Xinyun: "I went. How could I not go?"

Han Chen lowered his eyes: "I didn't go."

Liang Xinyun: "I understand what you are thinking, and I also know that you are also very entangled in your heart."

Han Ze is his fourth brother and the murderer of his wife's father.

With his dual and contradictory identities, Han Chen still hasn't figured out how to face Han Ze.

Liang Xinyun: "His condition is not optimistic either. He has severe burns all over his body, and... it is very likely that he will need amputation."

Han Chen looked at Liang Xinyun blankly.

This seems to be another kind of pain and sadness.

Liang Xinyun: "Your fourth brother may not necessarily have an easy life in the future. It's just... Zhou Mo lost her father. Even if your fourth brother can only spend the rest of his life paralyzed in bed, it will not be able to relieve her pain of losing her father."

.”

Han Chen's throat hurt terribly, "I know."

Liang Xinyun: "Since your grandfather is here, you should also go to the hospital and have a look. Talk to him carefully and ask him not to interfere with the life of Momo's family again."

Han Chen: "Okay."

He endured the pain in his throat and resolutely agreed.

In fact, this is what he wants to do.

He understood what his grandfather might do next, and he had to stop him.

He vowed to protect Zhou Mo, but he failed to even ask her to give her father a safe funeral.

For this reason alone, he is not worthy of being Zhou Mo's husband.

In the past few days, Zhou Mo wouldn't let him show up, so he had been decadent, struggling, and thinking.

How should he deal with the current situation?

Going to the hospital to see Han Ze made him feel deeply guilty, and he even wondered if Zhou Mo would feel that she had been betrayed by him.

Han Chen didn't dare to make a rash decision, he had to take Zhou Mo's mood into consideration.

So he didn't go to the hospital to see Han Ze. He only called to inquire about Han Ze's condition. He was relieved to learn that his life had been saved.

He wanted to wait until Zhou Zheng's funeral was over before going to the hospital to see Han Ze.

However, Zhou Mo was so cruel that he didn't even tell him the time of Zhou Zheng's funeral.

While he was filled with guilt, he was also deeply hurt.

But he couldn't blame Zhou Mo for being cruel.

That's her father.

He is the one who loves Zhou Mo more than him.

Now that things have happened, he can only pick himself up again.

Han Chen took out his mobile phone and called Liang Dongyan.

"Regarding my fourth brother's traffic accident case, you find someone to act as Zhou Mo's attorney," Han Chen said: "Tell her the truth about the situation on my fourth brother's side. I don't want to lie to her at all.

I don’t even want to.”

"Have you thought about it?" Liang Dongyan said: "If you do this, you may not be able to gain Zhou Mo's trust, but you will also be on the opposite side of the Han family."

In short, he is now a "traitor" in the eyes of both parties.

Han Chen didn't care anymore: "It doesn't matter. I just want to protect Zhou Mo. I promised her and I must do it."

Liang Dongyan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll find a way."

…

After Zhou Zheng’s funeral.

Zhou Mo and Liu Xiangru felt like their chests had been hollowed out.

Return to Yuan Shangju.

The home seemed to have become much emptier, without the joy and laughter of the past.

Zhou Mo entered the kitchen and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

she asked Liu Xiangru.

Liu Xiangru shook her head.

"Not hungry."

So did Zhou Mo.

I don't feel hungry at all.

My head is now blank, I am very tired, but I can't sleep.

At night, mother and daughter were lying on the bed in the master bedroom.

Usually, this is where Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru sleep.

"Momo..." Liu Xiangru said.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Xiangru turned over and hugged Zhou Mo, "I miss your dad."

Tears filled Zhou Mo's eyes instantly, "I miss him too. I didn't even feel that he left us. He must have gone on a business trip and will be back after a while."

Just like she did when she was little.

Zhou Zheng went to work at the grassroots level and was a few months old when he left. She and Liu Xiangru were the only ones at home.

At night, she would occasionally sneak into the master bedroom and pester Liu Xiangru to sleep with her.

Then the mother and daughter worked together to count the days when Zhou Zheng would come back, and planned what to eat at home on the day he came back.

They really didn't feel that Zhou Zheng was gone.
