Chapter 1289 Shen Yan's Visit
He Tian was about to speak when he suddenly saw the dirt on the urn and a line of faint handwriting under the dirt. The last word that was the clearest was "Autumn".
"Have you found Gu Wanqiu's ashes?"
Li Jinxing slowly propped himself up and held the urn on his lap like he was holding a child.
"Yes, it's buried not far from here."
“How do you know it’s buried there? Have you seen Shen Yan?”
Li Jinxing finally looked up at him and asked, "Who is Chen Yan?"
Judging from his expression, he definitely doesn't know. If he didn't ask Chen Yan, how did he know exactly where it was buried?
The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. Some coincidences cannot be explained.
He Tian said, "Chen Yan was the one who took care of Gu Wanqiu. He watched her die, collected her body, and brought her ashes here..." He paused, "Don't look at me like that. I didn't mean to hide it from you. You drank too much on Gu Wanqiu's birthday. I went to Rongcheng the next day. When I arrived, there was only a nanny. It was the nanny who told me all this."
He is not Li Jinxing. Although he feels a little sorry for Gu Wanqiu, he will not care too much about her. He is just a bystander. After learning of her death, it was also within his expectations. At most, he sighed.
So I didn’t check it out in detail.
"I want to see Chen Yan..." Li Jinxing's voice was hoarse, his nose was blocked, his voice was nasal, and his face was sickly pale.
Seeing that he looked so bad, He Tian wanted to persuade him to see a doctor and take medicine, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
He had said everything he needed to say yesterday. He thought Li Jinxing should already understand. If he said more, not only would Li Jinxing feel annoyed, but he would too.
"I'll ask someone to check and bring him here."
He no longer had the energy to get involved in these matters. Even if he wasn't there, he could arrange for other people to easily find Shen Yan and bring him here. Shen Yan should also be willing to come here.
Li Jinxing stroked the box gently, as if his lover was still in his arms.
He Tian frowned and looked at him. Li Jinxing's mental state has always been very bad. He would rather he vent his anger, yell, roar like he did yesterday, or smash things, rather than being like he is now.
Maybe he didn't have the energy to vent like he did yesterday.
Li Jinxing looked very bad, with a strong sense of fatigue. His eyes were filled with red bloodshot, making his pupils appear even darker.
His vision was blurred, as if his cornea had fallen off, and the tangled red bloodshot looked like two cracked beads.
He Tian was a little worried about his eyes, "Boss, do your eyes hurt?"
Li Jinxing didn't say anything but shook his head.
It was useless for He Tian to ask, because his eyes were painful to look at.
If the cornea really falls off and is not treated in time, it is very likely that you will become blind. Among the major human senses, vision ranks first.
"Eat something and get some sleep. I'll get someone to get Chen Yan."
Li Jinxing said "hmm" and this time he was obedient. He lay back on the bed, still holding the urn in his hands.
Looking at Gu Wanqiu's urn, He Tian thought of Jiang Yun again. He had disliked Jiang Yun before, and even made sarcastic remarks to her when they met last time.
Unexpectedly, she died just like that, just like Gu Wanqiu...
Who is more pitiful, Gu Wanqiu or Jiang Yun? Both are pitiful. They died in such a good time. At this age, they could have had everything, but they arrived at death early.
If we really have to compare, Gu Wanqiu is still more pitiful than Jiang Yun. After all, she has endured torture for nearly five years.
Thinking about how he was a fine person yesterday morning and has now turned into a handful of ashes, I can't help but sigh at the impermanence of life.
Now that the person I disliked is dead, all the resistance I felt instantly disappears.
He Tian asked, "What should we do with Jiang Yun's ashes?"
"Where are her relatives?" Li Jinxing didn't know much about Jiang Yun. He only knew that she was born in a very ordinary family.
He Tian said: "Her relatives probably won't care about her..."
She was born in an ordinary family, but she has never felt even ordinary family love.
She lived with her grandmother since she was a child, and her so-called mother never took care of her for a single day.
As for her father, no one knows who he is. She has a half-brother, and her mother gives all her love to that half-brother.
After she became famous as an artist, her relatives who had once ignored her began to suck her blood like blood-sucking worms and threatened her to give them money, otherwise they would expose her negative information to the public.
Jiang Yun has a good temper. She turns a blind eye to the requests of this family and agrees to them as long as they are not excessive.
She would give money if she could, but if they asked for too much, then she would just go all out and not get a penny. The whole family understood that killing the chicken to get the eggs was not a good idea.
So they behaved well in front of Jiang Yun, but Jiang Yun never had much feelings for them.
This was discovered by He Tian. If it were him, he would hate this whole family to death, but Jiang Yun was able to live in peace with them for so many years.
She even compromised with Liu Zibo for the so-called "mother" and was forced to do things she didn't want to do.
He Tian couldn't understand what kind of experiences a person had gone through or what kind of environment he grew up in to make him so submissive.
Perhaps this person had tried to struggle and resist, but failed every time and gave up.
This time, it was her strongest resistance. She fell in love with someone she shouldn't have liked. Liu Zibo asked her to kill Li Jinxing, but she couldn't do it. He asked her to steal secrets, but she didn't want to... So she suffered backlash and ended up like this. Perhaps this result was within her expectations.
Jiang Yun is also a poor man. He did not have a good end in his life, so he should be buried properly after his death. I don’t know whether Li Jinxing is willing to help Jiang Yun arrange his funeral.
No one knows what Jiang Yun likes, unlike Gu Wanqiu, who would say that she likes a beautiful big house, nice clothes, a room with a sea view, and likes roses... Therefore, even after Gu Wanqiu died, someone would still remember her preferences, take her ashes to see the sea, and prepare beautiful roses and camellias at her grave.
Li Jinxing covered his head and said after a long while: "Ask her family first. If they don't care, just find a random cemetery to bury her."
It is already good enough to find a cemetery for Jiang Yun to bury him. The land price in Haicheng is high now, and a cemetery costs tens of thousands, not to mention a good cemetery.
He Tian went out and gave instructions, and first contacted Jiang Yun's family.
It can be heard from the phone that they don't care about Jiang Yun, and they even asked how much compensation they would get for Jiang Yun's death.
Even someone who didn't care about Jiang Yun would get angry after hearing these words. He directly recorded the audio and uploaded it to the Internet, and by the way, helped Li Jinxing divert the fire.
The cemetery for Jiang Yun was quickly chosen. Nowadays, cemeteries are divided into different levels and pay attention to feng shui. The better the feng shui, the more expensive the cemetery. Li Jinxing was not short of money, so He Tian took the initiative to find a cemetery worth hundreds of thousands of yuan and buried Jiang Yun's ashes there.
There are not many flowers in winter. The most common flower planted in the cemetery is chrysanthemum. The flowering season has passed, but fortunately there are still a few plum trees, and you can already smell the faint fragrance of the flowers.
A simple tombstone was carved. As for the posthumous portrait, she couldn't use her current face after plastic surgery. She was Gu Wanqiu's stand-in during her lifetime. Now that she is dead, she should go back to her original self.
He Tian searched for a long time before he found a photo of Jiang Yun from high school. The girl was 18 years old, wearing a school uniform and a high ponytail. Her grandmother who loved her the most was still alive at that time. She looked different when she was loved by someone. Her smile was sweet and carefree, her eyes curved like crescents, and she was full of energy. Jiang Yun was very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
He Tian completed all these in just one day.
At Qiule Manor, the housekeeper called him several times after he left, always talking about Li Jinxing, such as he was sick, had not eaten, and was holding an urn, which was scary.
What's so scary about him just being sick and holding a wooden box? Is it as scary as the time he went crazy and burned things in the middle of the night? Is it as scary as the time he woke up from sleepwalking and spent a week digging a hole downstairs?
He Tian said into the phone, "He knows his own body better than anyone else. Don't worry about him. He's not a child. As long as he doesn't die, that's all that matters."
This was the first time He Tian spoke so coldly about Li Jinxing, which shocked the housekeeper who called him for a while. He didn't react until the other party hung up the phone impatiently.
It was true that nothing would happen to Li Jinxing. After catching a cold, he couldn't eat, but he could drink water. He held Gu Wanqiu's urn and his mouth kept moving.
If you get closer, you can hear the sound.
He was calling Gu Wanqiu's name over and over again.
"It's getting late on earth, autumn has already arrived in the mountains and rivers, and winter has arrived now. It is said that this year will be colder than previous years. Wanwan, are you cold?" As he spoke, he pulled the quilt to cover the urn.
It doesn’t matter whether you cover yourself with a blanket or not, the main thing is to cover the wooden box first.
I heard from the housekeeper that the site for Jiang Yun’s grave has been chosen and it’s a good place.
Where should Gu Wanqiu's ashes be buried? The thought of burying the person he loved most deep in the ground and letting her suffer in the cold was shocking.
He felt like his heart had fallen into a meat grinder.
He couldn't bear to...
Gu Wanqiu liked living in a big house, and Qiule Manor was designed according to her preferences. She didn't live there for many days, and after her death, she might as well be buried here...
He wanted to replace the champagne roses outside with her favorite camellias and red roses...
From now on, he would live with this urn, eat and sleep together. During the day, he would go to work while she stayed here. After work, he would immediately come back to accompany her. It was just like before, nothing had changed, except... the wooden box was not like a person and would not talk to him...
"You are still by my side... You can't talk, you can't walk... You won't go anywhere..."
He seems to have a mental illness, and he thinks that this is also good...
Li Jinxing didn't eat, but only drank lemon water with salt and sugar.
He is in good health and will be fine even if he doesn't eat or drink for two days. He was sick with a high fever last night, but as soon as the sun rose, the fever on his body slowly disappeared. Apart from feeling weak and having a slight headache, he didn't feel anything else. He can get through it and can still walk.
The window was closed by the housekeeper. Li Jinxing went over to open the window and stretched his hand outside. The cold wind outside was like an icy hand clasping his fingers together. The chill penetrated his palms, and his wounded fingertips shrank. When the cold wind blew, his eyes squinted at first, and his eyelashes became moist. After a long time, he finally got used to the wind outside. He opened his eyes, his vision was blurred, and he looked down with longing. He wanted to jump from here, as if as long as he jumped, he would be able to see Gu Wanqiu again.
At that moment, he seemed to be possessed by his soul. Although he knew he shouldn't do this, he couldn't help but put his hands on the windowsill. With just a little force, he could flip down from here.
But just as he was about to exert force, he heard a voice.
"Ajin."
Only Gu Wanqiu would call him that.
He turned his head and looked at the lonely urn beside the bed.
He woke up as if from a dream, remembering what He Tian had repeatedly reminded him.
Don't hurt your body, don't think about dying. When Gu Wanqiu chose to use her own life to save him, his life no longer belonged to him alone. He was responsible for Gu Wanqiu's life and the care of three children.
At night, Chen Yan was "invited" to Qiule Manor. After he buried Gu Wanqiu's ashes nearby, he drove to many places alone. After touring Haicheng and was about to go back, he received a strange call saying that Li Jinxing was coming to Qiule Manor to see him.
If he doesn't go, Li Jinxing will send someone to invite him.
These words have a threatening tone.
It just so happened that Chen Yan also wanted to meet Li Jinxing. He was not stupid, and Li Jinxing didn't know him. Suddenly he asked to see him by name, which could only mean that he knew about Gu Wanqiu.
He also read the news online. Seeing so many people scolding Li Jinxing, he just thought that the scolding was good and could be even harsher.
Chen Yan knew that in Haicheng, Li Jinxing was extremely powerful and always kept his word. If he didn't go today, someone might kidnap him tonight.
Shen Yan didn't like being forced. Isn't it okay to see Li Jin? Of course he was willing to see him, and he had even wanted to see him for a long time.
After receiving the call, Shen Yan drove to Qiule Manor and saw the guard. Shen Yan said his name.
The guard had received instructions long ago, and when he heard Shen Yan's name, he opened the door and let him in. When he saw the house, Shen Yan stopped the car. There were servants and bodyguards standing outside. The leading butler walked up to him with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Mr. Shen, this way please."
Chen Yan followed with a cold face, thinking solemnly that he wanted to see in person what kind of person Li Jinxing was that could make Gu Wanqiu still love him until her death.
He also wanted to know clearly whether he had Gu Wanqiu in his heart? Why did he not show up when she was so seriously ill until her death?
Chen Yan followed the housekeeper's steps and went upstairs. He saw the man sitting on the sofa in the hall. He looked down and was stunned when he saw the wooden box in his arms.
