Han Chen pursed his lips and asked, "You didn't even tell me and my mother about the funeral. You didn't want it to leak out, fearing that someone from the Han family would cause trouble, right?"
Zhou Mo's throat felt uncomfortable: "Yeah."
Han Chen: "Even though saying sorry is useless, I still want to apologize to you for what happened to my grandfather."
Zhou Mo: "No need."
Han Chen: "Because it's meaningless, right?"
Zhou Mo: "No. Your grandfather didn't get anything good from me, and I made him very angry. The old man is old, and I don't want to be hit or blackmailed. You should keep an eye on him and tell him not to come to me. Knowing that I am a nail, don't deliberately step on me, lest you get tetanus and have to blame me for paying for the vaccine."
Han Chen looked at each other in silence.
Zhou Mo's cold and indifferent mode was online. Even he couldn't guarantee that he could melt her heart which was sealed by an iron wall.
She became cruel and her words were poisonous and heartbreaking.
It hurts more than being stabbed by a real knife, and it makes people feel suffocated.
After burning incense, the two stood side by side in silence, with a distance of one body length between them, as if they were two complete strangers.
They were talking and laughing, loving and affectionate just a few days ago, but now everything has changed.
Not only Zhou Mo, but even Liu Xiangru avoided looking at him, wanting to look but not daring to.
That awkward expression made Han Chen's chest ache.
However, the changes in the two families go beyond this.
Liang Xinyun hurried over, and after the memorial service was completed, she burst into tears.
She held Liu Xiangru and kept saying sorry, but apart from having wet eyes, Liu Xiangru did not seem to accept Liang Xinyun's feelings.
Perhaps allowing them to come and pay their respects was the last act of tolerance that Zhou Mo and Liu Xiangru could offer.
There is no way they can restore their previous good neighborliness.
Liu Xiangru was no longer as friendly as before and tried her best to control herself and persuade him, "Having you and Han Chen come is the last resort we can offer. We have a banquet later and I'm sorry we can't host you."
Liang Xinyun: "Don't say that, Sister Xiangru, I understand, I understand everything. I will take Han Chen away and let you send Momo's father off properly."
What else can we do now?
The dead are the greatest. Zhou Mo lost her father and Liu Xiangru lost her husband.
Anyone with compassion and conscience can understand how painful they are at this moment.
And although she and Han Chen have a good relationship with them, they are still members of the Han family after all.
This cannot be changed no matter what.
Coming out of the funeral venue.
Han Chen was filled with pain. He asked Liang Xinyun, "Mom, what should I do now?"
Liang Xinyun stepped forward and hugged him.
"I don't know either. Let's give them some time. This is their saddest time. Let's not make it worse for them."
Han Chen: "Have you gone to see Fourth Brother?"
Liang Xinyun: "I went. How could I not go?"
Han Chen lowered his eyes: "I didn't go."
Liang Xinyun: "I understand your thoughts, and I know you are also very conflicted inside."
Han Ze is his fourth brother and the murderer of his wife's father.
Han Chen still hasn't figured out how to face Han Ze due to his dual and contradictory identities.
Liang Xinyun: "His condition isn't optimistic either. He's severely burned all over his body, and... he's very likely to need amputation."
Han Chen stared at Liang Xinyun in a daze.
This seems to be another kind of pain and sadness.
Liang Xinyun: "Your fourth brother's future may not be easy either. It's just... Zhou Mo lost her father. Even if your fourth brother can only spend the rest of his life paralyzed in bed, it will not alleviate her pain of losing her father."
Han Chen's throat was sore, "I know."
Liang Xinyun: "Since your grandfather is here, you should go to the hospital too. Have a good talk with him and ask him to stop interfering with Momo's family's life."
Han Chen: "Okay."
He endured the pain in his throat and agreed resolutely.
In fact, this is what he wanted to do.
He understood what his grandfather might do next, and he had to stop him.
He vowed to protect Zhou Mo, but he couldn't even let her give her father a peaceful funeral.
For this reason alone, he is not worthy of being Zhou Mo's husband.
These past few days, Zhou Mo didn't let him show up, so he had been depressed, entangled, and thinking.
How should he deal with the current situation?
Going to the hospital to see Han Ze made him feel deeply guilty. He even wondered if Zhou Mo would feel betrayed by him.
Han Chen didn't dare to make a hasty decision. He had to take Zhou Mo's feelings into consideration.
So he didn't go to the hospital to see Han Ze, but just called to inquire about Han Ze's condition. He was relieved to learn that he had survived.
He wanted to wait until Zhou Zheng's funeral was over before going to the hospital to see Han Ze.
However, Zhou Mo was too cruel and didn't even tell him the time of Zhou Zheng's funeral.
He was filled with guilt and deeply hurt.
But he couldn't blame Zhou Mo for being cruel.
That's her father.
Someone who loves Zhou Mo more than him.
At this point, he can only pick himself up again.
Han Chen took out his cell phone and called Liang Dongyan.
"Regarding my fourth brother's traffic accident case, you find someone to represent Zhou Mo as a lawyer," Han Chen said. "Tell her everything about my fourth brother. I don't want to lie to her, not at all."
"Have you thought it through?" Liang Dongyan said, "If you do this, you may not necessarily gain Zhou Mo's trust, and you will also be standing against the Han family."
In short, he is now considered a "traitor" by both sides.
