"grandfather!"
Guan Yuxi was deeply saddened.
She was like a participant, able to clearly perceive all the emotions of the girl in the dream.
Yet it's as if the soul has been detached, possessing an independent personality.
Tears soaked the pillow.
Leng Lie crept in and pulled her into his arms.
"Don't cry, you still have me."
"If you keep crying like this, Grandpa will worry."
"Grandpa sacrificed himself to protect national property, so let him not leave in peace."
Protecting state property?
Guan Yuxi suddenly opened her eyes.
His eyes were so red and swollen that it looked like he hadn't slept for several nights.
Leng Lie helped her up. "Yes, Minister Zhao said so."
He said it was a secret and that's all he could reveal for now...
The mourning hall for Grandpa Guan was set up in a very grand manner.
In the black and white photo, Grandpa Guan has full cheeks, a commanding gaze, and wears a military uniform, exuding an imposing aura and looking very dignified.
"Xiaoxi, the old man said before he died that he wanted to be buried simply."
But I still want him to pass away with dignity; he deserves the highest level of funeral honors.
Minister Zhao's face was filled with sorrow, yet he still restrained himself and personally handled the funeral arrangements.
Guan Yuxi stared intently at her grandfather's photo, her vision gradually blurring.
Memories flood back.
All of the original owner's experiences were vividly replayed in her sleep.
She actually had more profound memories and perceptions than the original owner.
The memories of spending time with Grandpa Guan, even the warmth of his palm, seem to linger between my fingers.
But those warm, large hands are now only cold.
I agree with your opinion.
If he wants to blame someone, he should blame his granddaughter.
There's an old saying, "Provide generous care for the living and simple funerals for the dead," but Heaven didn't give her that chance!
The child wishes to care for his parents, but they are no longer there.
Guan Yuxi clenched her teeth tightly, tilted her head back to try to force back her tears, but couldn't help but burst into tears.
Grandpa Guan's funeral was solemn and dignified.
The old man was kind and upright, and helped many people to the best of his ability.
Therefore, not only did everyone from Lengjiagou come.
Even people from the two neighboring villages came spontaneously to see the old man off on his final journey.
Several elderly men with white hair and refined manners, dressed in blue robes, knelt by the roadside, weeping sadly.
Guan Yuxi returned the greeting blankly.
"Xiaoxi, are you alright?"
"I just found out about Grandpa Guan's accident. I'm too late."
Bai Qin's face was pale, and she looked sickly.
He handed her the toilet paper he was carrying.
Guan Yuxi nodded slightly, returned the greeting, and walked past her.
"I've lived in your house for so long, and I'm so grateful for the old man's kindness. I'll stay with you."
Bai Qin pushed her aside and took her place.
Guan Yuxi looked at her expressionlessly.
He tried his best to control his anger, not wanting her to ruin his grandfather's funeral.
Minister Zhao stepped forward and said, "Get out of the way!"
"I am very grateful for the care that Grandpa Guan took of me, which is why I wanted to see him off on his final journey."
Bai Qin wiped her eyes, looking frail and pitiful.
Minister Zhao frowned, intending to order someone to forcibly drag her away.
Bai Qin had already grabbed Guan Yuxi's arm and pulled her forward.
Guan Yuxi shook off her hand, "I'm not in the mood to argue with you!"
Bai Qin stiffened for a moment, then leaned closer.
She knew that Guan Yuxi was arrogant and proud, and also very concerned about her image.
In this situation, if she persists a little longer, she definitely won't be able to bring herself to refuse.
"Xiaoxi, I'm concerned about you."
Even though Grandpa Guan is no longer here, you still have me.
Although you've misunderstood me, I've always considered you my little sister...
"Shut up!"
Guan Yuxi, unable to bear it any longer, said, "Bai Qin, just say what you want to do."
Bai Qin looked delighted. "Xiao Xi, Grandpa Guan just passed away, and then you suddenly suffered another misfortune. You must be scared, right?"
Let me move back in with you...
Fear?
She used to be afraid.
But lying in the coffin was my dear and respectable grandfather.
He was her only family!
Aside from feeling sad and being unable to hold back her tears, what else does she have to be afraid of?
Guan Yuxi gave her a gloomy look, then turned and walked away.
Bai Qin looked at Leng Lie waiting for her ahead and said angrily, "What are you so arrogant about?"
With that old bastard gone, and no one backing you up anymore, do you think you can hold onto a man like Leng Lie?
I'm waiting for you to come back and beg me, huh!
Who are you calling an "old codger"?
Guan Yuxi turned around, her face cold, and clenched her fists.
Bai Qin looked terribly frightened, took two steps back, and shouted, "Don't come any closer!"
Unexpectedly, Guan Yuxi rejected her again!
She lowered her head, a malicious smile appearing on her face, and whispered, "I knew it! What happened to your grandfather?"
The old man was killed, and he couldn't even get revenge. Tsk tsk, how tragic..."
"Smack!"
A slap landed squarely on her face.
"You dare hit me in front of the armed forces leaders?"
Bai Qin covered her face, looking at Guan Yuxi in disbelief.
"Sir, she hit me! Arrest her immediately!"
She cried bitterly in front of Minister Zhao.
Without saying a word, Guan Yuxi pulled her over again and slapped her hard across the face several times.
"Ah! Help! You're crazy!"
"You just stood by and watched her commit violence, weren't you going to do anything about it?"
"Where is justice? I'm going to the county to file a complaint against you!"
Bai Qin covered her face and cried.
If I had known Guan Yuxi would dare to make a move in front of the armed forces, I wouldn't have provoked her.
