Han Hongde glared at her, "What a sharp-tongued girl."
Zhou Mo reminded him, "You were the one who offended others first. Is it polite to mention a murderer at someone else's funeral? Or are you showing off to me that your grandson killed someone and is still alive, and that my father deserved to be killed inexplicably?"
She had endured enough.
If it were any other time, Zhou Mo might have considered his status as an elder and said a few words calmly.
It was her father's funeral.
Even at such a grand time as the funeral, Han Hongde could deliberately bully her. He was disrespectful to the elderly, so why should she have any more respect for the elderly?
"You--" Han Hongde was so angry that he couldn't stand steadily for a moment. Fortunately, the driver behind him supported him.
"Mr. Han," Zhou Mo said, trying to soften his tone. "Since you know what your grandson did, you should understand that no one with the last name Han or anyone connected to the Han family should come to my father's funeral. You're old, and you don't have my energy or quick reactions, yet you call me sharp-tongued. Challenging me, besides making you feel uncomfortable and angry, or even sick, will do you any good."
Han Hongde was stunned.
That seems to be the case.
But it was not enough, Han Hongde wanted to do much more than that.
Deep down, he still couldn't accept this ordinary woman becoming his granddaughter-in-law.
This is also one of the reasons why he came.
"There's already such a deep grudge between you and Han Chen. With such resentment, you... can't have a future," Han Hongde warned.
"I haven't thought that far ahead," Zhou Mo said. "I just want to deal with the current situation first. The current situation is my father's funeral. I need to find out the motive of the murderer who killed my father. Did he do it himself, or was he instructed by someone? What kind of judgment will this murderer face in the future?"
Every word is sonorous and powerful.
When mentioning Han Ze, he was named and called the "murderer".
Han Hongde's face looked extremely ugly.
He looked at Zhou Mo warily.
He saw a warning in Zhou Mo's eyes.
That warning seemed to threaten him. If he dared to go any further today, she would fight them to the death.
Even if there is Han Chen in the middle, there is no way that Han Ze can escape legal punishment.
The key point now is that Zhou Zheng is dead, and the person who hit him to death happened to be Han Ze, who was driving under the influence of drugs.
Is there any other hidden secret or trick in this? Who knows?
No one, including the Han family, could guarantee whether Han Ze's collision with Zhou Zheng was accidental or intentional.
Maybe it was someone from the Han family who ordered it.
Or, to be more blunt, maybe it was Han Hongde who ordered it.
Apart from anything else, Han Hongde has a motive.
He never wanted Zhou Mo and Han Chen to be together.
It doesn't matter if this is true, as long as Han Hongde has a motive.
Those who are eyeing the Han family will make good use of this motive.
Remove it quickly.
What Zhou Mo has always wanted is justice for his father. As for the life and death of the Han family, it has nothing to do with her from beginning to end.
On the contrary, since she married Han Chen, the Han family's attitude has basically been to oppose, make things difficult for, and target them everywhere.
Why should she care whether the Han family lives or dies?
Her only connection with the Han family was Han Chen.
Now that she has broken up with Han Chen, Zhou Mo has no scruples at all. In order to "avenge" her father, why would she miss such a good opportunity to kick someone when he's down?
The initiative is now entirely on Zhou Mo's side.
Zhou Mo was not familiar with Han Hongde either. If Han Hongde's behavior happened in the Han family, some people would be afraid of him. But Zhou Mo was a barefoot person now, so why would he be afraid of people wearing shoes?
"Mr. Han, take care," Zhou Mo said coldly as he saw the guest off and ordered him to leave.
Liu Chengfu and Liu Chengyun stepped forward, both of them held their heads high and stood straight, blocking Zhou Mo behind them, separating Zhou Mo from Han Hongde.
The two men raised their chins and had a tough attitude, and it was obvious that they wanted to forcibly send the guests away.
"Let's go," Han Hongde stared at Zhou Mo fiercely, then turned around.
Zhou Mo didn't miss the last chance to provoke Han Hongde. She said, "Please tell Han Chen that he is our Zhou family's son-in-law after all. He should at least come to burn incense at his father-in-law's funeral. The Han family is a family of etiquette. You were so graceful in burning incense for my father. As your grandson, he shouldn't be so ignorant of etiquette."
In a word, Han Hongde was so blocked that he was out of breath.
He strode away without even looking back.
After the black car left, Zhou Mo's tense spirit finally relaxed.
Liu Xiangru held Zhou Mo's hand.
"Momo..." She said worriedly, "We know what the Han family's family background is. We can't beat them."
Liu Xiangru's eyes were filled with tears and she was filled with worry.
She was afraid that Zhou Mo's words would be too extreme and anger the other party. After all, they were just ordinary people. How could they compete with the Han family?
However, Zhou Mo had already been holding back his anger.
"If they dare to interfere with the judiciary, I will file a complaint all the way up the chain of command," Zhou Mo said fiercely, his eyes reddening. "In broad daylight, I refuse to believe I won't get the justice I want."
If the Han family has the ability, they can cover the sky with one hand. If they can't... she swears to fight them to the death.
Half an hour later.
Han Chen is here.
Come in a hurry.
When Zhou Mo saw him for the first time, he didn't feel much emotion. He only had one thought in his mind: Oh, it seems that Han Hongde's words have brought it to light.
"Mo Mo..." He stepped forward hesitantly, his face haggard, his beard stubbled and uncared for.
There was a thick black ring around his eyes, making them look even sunken.
"Please burn incense," Zhou Mo said, "Once you burn incense, the ceremony will be over."
She turned to light the incense.
Han Chen grabbed her wrist and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't know you scheduled the funeral for today..."
Zhou Mo: "I don't blame you."
She pulled out her wrist, lit the incense, and handed it to Han Chen.
"Originally, I didn't plan to let you come," Zhou Mo said, "You should have guessed why I asked you to come."
Han Chen lowered his eyes: "I know, because of my grandfather."
Zhou Mo: "Did he tell you what he said here?"
Han Chen shook his head, "He refused to tell me."
Zhou Mo chuckled. "Is this what you meant by protecting me? You couldn't even do what I wanted, just to give my father a peaceful and half-funeral. When did your promise become empty talk?"
Han Chen said nothing. After a moment, he said, "I'm sorry..."
"Don't say that. I'm tired of hearing it," Zhou Mo said. "No amount of apologies can bring my father back. It's meaningless."
Han Chen silently took the incense handed to him by Zhou Mo and lit it for Zhou Zheng in a very polite manner.
"My mom should be coming over too. Can you... wait for her?"
"Um."
