"You've made this public knowledge, causing your mother to be cursed even after her death, and making our family the subject of gossip and slander. Now we get strange looks every time we go out. Are you satisfied now?"
Grandma Qi pointed at Jian Yu, her eyes blazing with fury, "Other families would be eager to cover up such a shameful affair as mother and daughter killing each other, but you deliberately uploaded it to the internet, as if you were afraid others wouldn't know. Now I suspect that you're the one who spread all the scandals of the Yu family in the past?"
"You only blame me for spreading it, why don't you blame Qi Yuexi for doing these things?"
Grandma Qi was so angry at Jian Yu's questioning that she took two steps back. "You still don't know how to repent, you have no remorse whatsoever. Those are your family members!"
Do they treat me like family?
"What?"
Grandma Qi felt that Jian Yu was being unreasonable. "If I didn't consider you family, why did I bring you back from the orphanage?"
"Then you should ask your dear in-laws why I was in the orphanage. What did they do after they took me back from the orphanage? Did your daughter ever treat me like family? Should I help you remember why your dear daughter got sick?"
Grandma Qi immediately fell silent. Qi Yuexi's plot to frame Jian Yu was exposed, and she was detained. During her detention, she thought about her recurring illness. After treatment, her condition improved a lot, but she couldn't bear the blow of Yu Yao's unexpected death, and her condition relapsed and worsened, which led to her current situation.
Jian Yu continued, "Furthermore, your beloved youngest daughter bears a heavy responsibility for Yu Cheng's current predicament. She says she never gave Qi Yuexi the medicine; do you think that's true?"
How could that be the truth?
When confronted with questions, Qi Yuezhen's first instinct was to run away. What else could it be but a guilty conscience?
If I hadn't seen the video online and learned that Qi Yuexi had passed away, I wouldn't have denied it so thoroughly.
“Qi Yuexi has been sleeping for far longer than she’s been awake these past few days. It’s impossible that you didn’t notice anything unusual about her.” Jian Yu glanced at Yu Hao, who quickly looked away. Jian Yu smiled and said, “It’s just that you don’t care, or you just want her to get what she wants.”
Yu Hao visibly swayed.
Grandma Qi, “…”
No one knows a daughter better than her mother, and her gaze began to wander.
Jian Yu saw their reactions and couldn't help but sneer, "You never expected this outcome, so you're angry and can't accept it; if Qi Yuexi hadn't accidentally hurt Yu Cheng, but had actually pricked me with a needle, you wouldn't be like this."
Jian Yu was telling the truth, and Yu Zhentian was too embarrassed to refute him.
So they turned their attention to Grandma Qi, "Mother-in-law, where is his aunt?"
"He had a heart attack and was hospitalized again."
Yu Zhentian knew that the hospitalization was just an excuse. "Now that Yu Cheng is in this state, his aunt has to show up, right?"
"I will show up at the funeral."
Yu Zhentian disagreed, "I want her to appear right now."
Grandma Qi was extremely annoyed by her in-laws' targeting of her youngest daughter. Unable to lose her temper, she could only patiently explain, "The police have already investigated and found out that Yuexi made the medicine herself, and it has nothing to do with Yuezhen."
Yu Zhentian sneered, "Whether it has nothing to do with her or not, we all know very well. She's smart enough not to leave any evidence, so the police can't do anything to her. But don't forget, some things don't need evidence."
Grandma Qi, “…”
what to do?
Are we really going to call them over?
It's no use just calling out!
Qi Yuezhen didn't not want to come, but she was currently embroiled in trouble.
Her husband heard that she had a large sum of money abroad and is now pestering her to come back.
After failing to resolve the issue with her, they started targeting their daughter.
If Qi Yuezhen hadn't made arrangements in advance, their daughter would have already been tricked into coming back.
However, this meant that Qi Yuezhen and her in-laws had completely broken off relations and could no longer live together.
In addition, she was indeed so angry that she felt unwell, which is why she had to be hospitalized for treatment.
Jian Yu didn't want to know how Qi Yuezhen and Yu Zhentian talked. After looking at Yu Cheng, she left the scene with her people.
She ran into Ou Xiang in the parking lot, and Ou Xiang saw Jian Yu and handed her a tissue.
The remaining part is unclear.
Prime Minister Ou sighed and said, "Wipe your tears!"
Jian Yu subconsciously reached out and touched her face; there were indeed tears.
Before I noticed it, nothing was wrong, but after I noticed the tears, my eyelids seemed to be stimulated and started to overflow.
"I didn't expect to accidentally hurt Yu Cheng. I thought that since I was standing far away from the bed, it wouldn't be so easy for Qi Yuexi to do anything. But I underestimated the strength she had before she died. She was even more agile and flew farther than when she was in good health."
The video that went viral online was naturally seen by Prime Minister Ou.
“This has nothing to do with you! Don’t blame yourself. When I came to see Aunt Qi the day before yesterday, she had just woken up and was unconsciously calling your name. She looked like she was possessed. I’ve investigated many people, and not everyone feels guilty before they die. I warned Yu Cheng then not to help Aunt Qi bring you over, lest something unexpected happen. But Yu Cheng didn’t listen. He firmly believes that a dying person’s words are kind.”
Yu Cheng always thinks of his family in a positive light, even though his perceptions have been challenged many times.
"He just trusts his family too much," Ou Xiang sighed.
Jian Yu nodded. "Please let me know once the funeral date is set."
"good."
Ou Xiang helped Jian Yu into her car and waited until she left the parking lot before taking the elevator up.
Jian Yu learned from Ou Xiang that Yu Zhentian was angry with Qi Yuexi because of this incident and forbade Yu Hao and Yu Ze from organizing her funeral.
Yu Ze ignored him and insisted on arranging Qi Yuexi's and Yu Cheng's funerals together, which angered Yu Zhentian so much that he almost destroyed the funeral hall.
Finally, Qi's uncle stepped in and arranged two mourning halls.
Yu Hao and Yu Ze were both forced to stay in Yu City by Yu Zhentian.
At Qi Yuexi's mourning hall, only her maternal family members were present.
Jian Yu only sent a wreath to Yu Cheng's funeral hall.
Although the Qi family members were angry, they could only suppress their anger in front of the many guests.
Yu Hao has been hospitalized since the funeral.
Yu Ze was forced into taking over the company, but he had no prior experience with it and had no idea where to begin.
Yu Ting's abilities were limited, and she couldn't help him much.
Yu Zhentian had no choice but to force himself to stay and oversee the situation despite his illness.
With Yu Zhentian's assistance, Yu Ze finally felt less panicked.
Yu Hao lay on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the lush green branches outside the window.
The ward door creaked open, and Yu Hao, assuming it was a nurse, didn't turn around.
"Speak! What do you want from me? Do you want to be like your wife, dragging me down with you even in death?"
Jian Yu's voice rang out, and Yu Hao turned around in surprise, "You're here?"
"You've asked Prime Minister Ou to pass on messages to me several times already. In order to give me some peace and quiet in the future, I have no choice but to come here."
After hearing this, Yu Hao turned his head and said, "I thought you wouldn't come."
Jian Yu sat down on a chair by the door. "I wasn't planning on coming! I just heard that you had a falling out with Qi Yuezhen and terminated your cooperation with her company, so I wanted to come and see what the show was like."
Yu Hao was not upset by Jian Yu's sarcasm. He slowly sat up from the bed and picked up a glass of cold water from the bedside table.
The water in the glass was almost gone; Yu Hao had only taken a few sips before it was empty. He raised the glass to Jian Yu and said, "Could you pour me a glass of water?"
Jian Yu remained seated, while George went over and poured Yu Hao a glass.
Yu Hao held the cup, lowered his head, his eyes slightly red, but he didn't speak, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
After about ten minutes, Jian Yu became impatient and was about to stand up and leave.
Yu Hao shifted his gaze over, "On the day your mother and Yu Cheng were buried, I had a dream!"
What you think about during the day, you dream about at night!
It's normal to dream about your wife and children after they've just passed away.
Jian Yu didn't take it seriously. "Oh! And then?"
"I dreamt that your mother and I brought you home from the orphanage, but you never felt at home. To fit in, you tried to please everyone, but no one accepted you, especially Yu Yao, who was always targeting you—no, not just targeting, sometimes even framing you. Because of Yu Yao's instigation, everyone gradually became more and more hostile towards you. Later, when you went to university, you lived on campus and didn't go home. Then, you pursued your doctorate. At a family dinner, Yu Yao added something to your drink, causing you to vomit blood and be hospitalized. Unfortunately, we were all on vacation abroad. When you confronted her, your mother scolded you instead. In a fit of anger, you completely cut off contact with us. Not long after, you died unexpectedly. When we heard the news, we weren't sad at all; instead, we all breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't want to hold a funeral for you, so I had my assistant buy a burial plot for you and had the funeral home put your ashes there."
Jianyu, “…”
Slowly clenching his fist, Yu Hao never expected to dream of his past life.
Looking into Jian Yu's cold eyes, Yu Hao frowned. "It's clearly a dream, but it feels so real to me, as if it really happened."
Jian Yu closed her eyes. "If it's true, what do you want to do?"
Yu Hao shook his head. "If it's true, I think I can understand your hatred for us, but..."
"Just what?"
"But what kind of dream is that in the world?"
Jian Yu stood up, pushed up his sunglasses, and said, "Then just pretend it didn't happen!"
Yu Hao's heart immediately started pounding. "Your reaction..."
Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind: "Have you ever dreamed about what I'm talking about?"
Jian Yu stopped in his tracks. "No."
Yu Hao jumped out of bed. "I don't believe it. Your reaction just now tells me you dreamed about it too, didn't you?"
Jian Yu remained silent.
Yu Hao swayed, his mind filled with the image of Jian Yu dying in his dream.
The frail child lay on the ground, murmuring "Daddy" and "Mommy"...
Silence reigned all around. After a moment, a tear rolled down her cheek, and she stopped breathing...
Several days later, his assistant came to help with the funeral arrangements.
A small cemetery in a remote location became her final resting place.
At that time, he was hosting a grand banquet with his whole family.
