Her every word and action represented the face of the entire Shen family. She gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger: "Fine, today is your daughter's funeral. You, an elderly person, are sending off your child. You have a bad temper, but I won't hold it against you."

Jiang Jingyu stormed out of the mourning hall, her face pale.

Lin Haotian, who had been hiding in the courtyard, finally got to see Jiang Jingyu.

The ropes binding him loosened early this morning, and he took the opportunity to break free and climb out of the basement.

I heard that the Shen family is holding a lavish funeral for Lu Zhiwei. I wonder what Lu Zhiwei is up to.

Without saying a word, he rushed to the Shen family home, wanting to see Jiang Jingyu and give her a heads-up.

He pushed through the crowd and quietly approached her.

"Jingyu," Lin Haotian called out to her.

Lin Haotian's sudden appearance caused Jiang Jingyu's expression to change drastically. "What are you doing here?"

"I have something to tell you, it's very important." Lin Haotian said anxiously.

Alarm bells rang in Jiang Jingyu's mind.

The courtyard and front of the Shen family's mourning hall were filled with mourners, a chaotic scene.

"Let's talk in my bedroom. I'll have the housekeeper bring you over, and we'll go our separate ways." Jiang Jingyu was cautious, afraid that someone would see that she and Lin Haotian were colluding.

Lin Haotian understood Jiang Jingyu's meaning, nodded cautiously, took a few steps back, and returned to the crowd, temporarily separating himself from Jiang Jingyu.

Not long after, the butler secretly came to invite him, led him to an empty bedroom.

Jiang Jingyu sat nervously on the sofa in the bedroom. As soon as he arrived, she immediately got up and locked the door.

She even left a housekeeper outside to keep watch.

"What are you doing at the Shen family at this critical juncture? Don't tell me you're here to pay respects to Lu Zhiwei too?" Jiang Jingyu lowered her voice, angrily rebuking Lin Haotian for coming.

Lin Haotian looked around, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
