Mrs. Gu arranged the old man's funeral scene very grandly, and prepared everything that was necessary.
They even said that the old man had made so many contributions to the Gu family, so even if he died, he should die in glory.
In response to this, Gu Tingchen just watched coldly, without interfering or disturbing, but he was extremely disappointed with his mother in his heart.
At noon, Mrs. Gu was about to go to the old man's room with someone. As soon as she reached the door, she was stopped by several children.
"Grandma, what are you doing?" Several children looked unhappy.
Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran had already reminded the children not to let Mrs. Gu get close to the old man's room.
Although the old man is lying on the hospital bed now, he is still breathing and has temperature. Once Mrs. Gu goes there, she will definitely find that the old man is still alive.
"I'm measuring the old man's burial clothes. What are you guys doing here? Go away." Mrs. Gu didn't look at the children in a good mood.
Until now, Mrs. Gu has never treated these children as her own grandchildren.
Seeing that the children were about to be unable to stop them, Jiang Ranran came over in time, with tears on her face in order to cooperate with the acting.
"Mom, you should know that grandpa doesn't want to see you, right? Why did you come here?"
Jiang Ranran's acting skills are also top-notch, and there's no clue whatsoever from her performance alone.
Seeing several children and Jiang Ranran blocking the door, Mrs. Gu began to have doubts about the old man's death.
"What business is it of yours where I want to go? I personally handled the old man's funeral. I'm the only elder in the Gu family. What right do you, a junior, have to talk to me like that?"
She became more and more suspicious that the old man might still be alive, and she would not feel at ease until she saw the old man's body.
But things inside had not been arranged yet, so Jiang Ranran certainly couldn't let Mrs. Gu in.
No matter what she said, Jiang Ranran always blocked the door and only had one sentence to say.
"Grandpa doesn't want to see you, I won't let you go."
Mrs. Gu had long lost her patience and didn't care what the occasion was. Just as she was about to throw a tantrum, she saw Gu Tingchen coming over.
There was no other way, so Madam Gu had to temporarily suppress her expression. Instead, she put on a very aggrieved look and said to Gu Tingchen, "The old man has passed away. I should at least see his remains. I am his daughter-in-law."
Even when Mrs. Gu was preparing for her funeral with great fanfare, Gu Tingchen had already given up all hope for his mother.
At this time, she remembered that she was the old man's daughter-in-law. What was she thinking when she harmed the old man again and again?
Gu Tingchen said expressionlessly: "Mom, you don't need to preside over Grandpa's funeral. You can go back."
Gu Tingchen was so disappointed that he could no longer pretend to have any acting skills towards his mother. Now he was only heartbroken.
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Gu immediately became anxious.
It wasn't because she was worried about not being able to attend the old man's funeral, but she just couldn't feel at ease unless she saw the old man's body.
What if the old man really wasn't dead as she thought? Then once he woke up, all her crimes would be exposed, and she would have no chance of staying in the Gu Group.
Gu Tingchen didn't really want Mrs. Gu to leave, he was just looking for an excuse to prevent her from entering the house.
"Mom, you've done those things yourself, so you should know the consequences. Now that grandpa has passed away, don't disturb him. If you insist on going in, I'll have to ask someone to ask you to leave." Gu Tingchen said this bluntly.
He didn't care at all about Mrs. Gu's face in front of so many people.
Mrs. Gu was speechless for a moment, and she didn't dare to argue with her son at this time.
She dared to guarantee that if she really argued, Gu Tingchen would definitely lay out the evidence in front of everyone.
There was no other way, so Mrs. Gu had to put her mind at ease for the time being, but she never gave up and was always trying to find a way to get close to the old man's room.
Gu Tingchen had several bodyguards blocking the door to the room, and no one could get in without a valid reason. Except for Mrs. Gu, some guests at the funeral were not allowed to see Mr. Gu.
The seeds of doubt grew stronger and stronger in Mrs. Gu's heart. She could no longer sit still, so she finally played the emotional card.
But even so, Gu Tingchen still couldn't compromise.
Jiang Ranran only became anxious after Mrs. Gu was stopped several times when she tried to force her way in.
He quietly pulled Gu Tingchen into another room and said, "We can't keep going like this. If we don't let her see the old man, she will definitely get suspicious. Wouldn't that mean our plan will be in vain?"
Mrs. Gu is already suspicious now.
If the old man really passed away, there would be no need to be on guard against others. Their previous excuse that they were afraid of others disturbing the old man's peace and quiet was totally untenable.
Gu Tingchen was also troubled by this matter.
But the situation on the old man's side is uncertain, and they can't really let the old man stop breathing.
So now things are getting a little troublesome.
Gu Tingchen sighed, "There's nothing we can do now. Let's try our best to stop it. We'll see what happens after the truth is revealed."
Anyway, they have come this far now and even sent out the old man's obituary. It would be a pity if they really don't trick someone into doing something.
Jiang Ranran nodded, "Okay, let's do this first."
At this moment, the private doctor in the old man's room suddenly called Gu Tingchen.
His tone was very happy, "The old man has woken up and is in good condition. He has regained consciousness."
This news surprised both of them.
The old man had been resting in bed for such a long time without waking up, but I didn't expect him to wake up so suddenly.
Jiang Ranran vaguely heard the content of the phone call and hurriedly asked Gu Tingchen, "Is Grandpa awake?"
Gu Tingchen also smiled and said, "Yeah, let's go and take a look."
As they spoke, the two of them entered the old man's room from the back door of the villa, holding a bowl of freshly made hot porridge in their hands.
As soon as I entered the room, the old man had already sat up. He looked quite energetic and didn't look like a patient who had just woken up.
The moment Jiang Ranran saw the old man awake, she felt like crying and immediately rushed over to him, "Grandpa, you're finally awake. Do you know how worried we were when you slept for so long?"
During this period of time, several people have been worried, afraid that the old man is too old and his body can't hold on, and he might be taken away by the disease at any time.
They have been using the most advanced medical methods for treatment, and fortunately, their hard work paid off and the old man has regained consciousness.
