Chapter 217 Obituary
When he was young, Mr. Lu was a prominent figure in the business circle of City A. His passing has caused some grief and some reflection, while others have remained oblivious.
Gu Zhenhao and Tang Xiang were among those who were unaffected.
Tang Xiang didn't shed a single tear despite her father's tragic death. She only went to pay her respects symbolically on the day of the funeral. Whether Old Master Lu lived or died was no longer of any concern to her.
She was more concerned about something else.
She received news that Gu Suixing had taken his son to the sanatorium, and now, apart from Lu Fengqing, who hadn't yet become his wife, the whole family was in the sanatorium.
That family and the Lu family have a very good relationship; they might both be immersed in grief right now.
This is a fantastic opportunity.
Tang Xiang grabbed her husband and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, should we...?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Tang Xiang's eyes, and she raised her hand as if to slit her throat.
Gu Zhenhao asked, "What do you want to do?"
Tang Xiang sneered, "Naturally, we'll make sure the whole family of four dies neatly in the sanatorium."
Once those four people are dead, the eldest branch of the family will be left without anyone, and everything the Gu family will belong to Jingdong in the future.

After washing up, Gu Suixing took Rui Rui back to Gu Zhenjun's ward.
When Huo Yao saw him, she said softly, "The Lu family has issued an obituary."
Gu Suixing nodded slightly.
Huo Yao asked, "Aren't you going to keep your wife company?"
Gu Suixing: "It's not appropriate."
Huo Yao nodded in agreement, "It's indeed inappropriate to be without a formal title or status."
"..."
Gu Suixing was already missing his wife, and hearing his mother's words now felt like a knife to his heart.
It wasn't that he didn't want to marry her, but the old man of the Lu family said that as long as his father didn't wake up, he wouldn't allow him to marry Lu Nian, and he couldn't go against the old man's wishes.
He didn't want to end up like his father-in-law, resented by his father-in-law until his death.
Gu Suixing patted his son's bottom and said, "Go talk to your grandpa and tell him to get up quickly so as not to delay your father's wedding."
Rui Rui: "..."
Huo Yao glanced coldly at her own son, then pulled the little guy over with heartache, "Don't mind your father, come and talk to Grandma."
Rui Rui looked at Gu Suixing, and seeing that he didn't object, she obediently walked over and said, "Grandma."
Gu Suixing was happy to have some peace and quiet, so she walked over to the soft sofa, sat down, and took out her phone to check it.
Assistant Fang knew about the Lu family's affairs, so he didn't give him any work to do these past two days.
Gu Suixing replied to messages from several business partners before finally opening Huo Huai'an's chat window.
[Huo Huai'an: Is Old Master Lu alright?]
[Huo Huai'an: Sigh, how could they just leave like that?]
[Huo Huai'an: Our family received the obituary from the Lu family.]
[Huo Huai'an: Where are you now?]
Gu Suixing replied: Sanatorium
Huo Huai'an quickly replied with several question marks.
[Huo Huai'an: What are you doing not accompanying Lu Nian to the sanatorium?]
[Huo Huai'an: Oh, sorry, I forgot, you're not yet the Lu family's son-in-law, you can't go over there.]
Gu Suixing narrowed her eyes, didn't reply, and directly added the person to her blacklist.
A moment later, the phone vibrated again.
The message was sent by Huo Huaisui.
[Sui Sui: Is Niannian alright?]
[Sui Sui: Niannian must be very sad right now, Fourth Brother, you have to comfort her.]
[SuiSui: My brother asked me to ask you if you've blacklisted him again.]
[SuiSui: That must be it. He's so annoying, let him stay in the dark room.]
After Gu Suixing finished reading the message sent by Huo Huaisui, she put down her phone and looked at the grandmother and granddaughter sitting by the hospital bed.
Huo Yao didn't have much love for her son, but her affection for her grandson was overflowing.
In the ten minutes or so that Gu Suixing was replying to messages, she fed the child milk, peeled an apple, and placed a plate of snacks on the cabinet.
The little guy hadn't eaten breakfast and was starving. He was nestled in his grandma's arms, his cheeks bulging from being fed.
Looking at the peeled apple, Gu Suixing thought to herself that she had never eaten an apple peeled by Ms. Huo herself before. Ms. Huo was so biased.
Just then, Ms. Huo casually tossed something over.
Gu Suixing took it and saw that it was an apple.
With skin on.
And it seems it hasn't even been washed.
Gu Suixing already had little presence in front of her parents, and now she felt that in Ms. Huo's eyes, she was practically unnecessary to exist.
It seems that other people's wives are unreliable; my own wife is the best.
Thinking of Lu Fengqing who was still at the Lu residence, Gu Suixing took the apple and went into the small kitchen by herself.
As she came out of the small kitchen, before she could even take a bite of the apple, she heard Ms. Huo instruct, "Go to the bathroom and get a damp towel to wipe my grandson's mouth."
Gu Suixing looked at the apple in his hand.
Well, before it was "your son," now it's "my grandson."
After helping his mother take care of her son, Gu Suixing did not linger in the ward any longer.
The sanatorium has some rehabilitation facilities, so he needs to go down and work on his injured leg, and also get his abs back, which were almost gone.
With Gu Suixing gone, it became easier for the grandmother and grandson to cultivate their relationship.
Ms. Huo adores her grandson and even wants to take him back to her room at night so he can sleep with her.
The little one was reluctant to part with his father, but also couldn't bear to refuse his grandmother, so he waved goodbye to his father and said, "Goodnight, Dad."
Gu Suixing, who has been continuously abandoned: "...Good night."
Gu Suixing took out her phone again before going to bed—
Gu Suixing, who checks his phone a hundred or eighty times a day, feels like a "waiting-for-wife stone".
Fortunately, he wasn't disappointed this time; his wife finally replied to his message.
[My Little Fairy: Okay]
Gu Suixing: "..."
The previous message was from Gu Suixing informing her that he had brought Rui Rui to the sanatorium.
It was posted yesterday. After so long, the woman finally replied with just one word: "Okay."
Gu Suixing felt a pang of sadness, but there was nothing she could do.
I sent her a message saying "Eat well and get some rest," then put down my phone, intending to hug her tightly in my dreams.
Unfortunately, before the dream could even begin, Gu Suixing smelled a burning odor.
At first, Gu Suixing thought she was dreaming, but the smell became stronger and stronger. She suddenly opened her eyes, grabbed her phone, and ran outside.
