Shen Qingxu narrowed his eyes. "Your idea is quite unique. Going back to see your own funeral?"
Tang Li nodded. She wanted to see the reactions of those people, and also Lu Jianshen. Had he returned?
Shen Qingxu took a deep breath and paused before saying, "I think you don't need to go back. It's a good opportunity to leave the past behind and start afresh."
He didn't say it explicitly, but when Tang Li arrived at the funeral, she would discover something devastating.
Just after Tang Nanquan lost his biological daughter, Song Lan brought back a little girl named Ye Ru, and asked her to take care of Tang Nanquan, the father who had died, in place of the deceased Tang Li.
Tang Nanquan accepted this daughter who had fallen from the sky.
Tang Li's position in the Tang family has been completely replaced, so there's no point in going back!
Tang Li still wanted to see it one last time, even if it was just to put her mind at ease.
Seeing that she was determined, Shen Qingxu agreed to take her along.
I only glanced at it and came right back.
"You don't need to care too much about those who don't care about you."
Before going there, Shen Qingxu gave her a heads-up.
Tang Li nodded absentmindedly. She already had a premonition that she wanted to investigate the cause of her mother's death.
She currently only has one feeling: she has been kept in the dark about what happened back then, or perhaps it's because she's part of the Lu family and doesn't know much about it.
The area in front of the Tang family's house was bustling with activity, filled with wreaths.
Tang Li was surprised to see a look of joy on Tang Nanquan's face as he greeted the guests coming and going.
Shen Qingxu parted his thin lips slightly, "He originally wanted to use his wedding to attract these guests, but now, because of your funeral, their wedding has to be postponed. So he simply invited relatives and friends at this funeral, hoping to bring in some business."
This is the mindset of a shrewd businessman, devoid of any human touch.
Shen Qingxu turned her head, glanced at the person beside her, and asked, "Do you want to get out of the car and take a look?"
Since we're already at the door, we might as well make her give up even more.
"Will he recognize me looking like this?"
Shen Qingxu shook his head. Before coming over, he had already asked the makeup artist to give Tang Li a makeover that made her completely unrecognizable.
Moreover, Tang Li had come with him, and today she was his assistant, so Tang Nanquan wouldn't suspect too much.
"You can get out of the car and take a look."
Tang Li nodded and silently followed beside Shen Qingxu, her head slightly lowered.
As she passed by her father, she heard Tang Nanquan and Shen Qingxu greet each other warmly.
He's probably too old and has completely forgotten that the young man in front of him is actually his ex-wife's biological son!
"President Shen, I'm truly surprised and honored that you could come!"
Shen Qingxu looked at the white flower on his chest and felt extremely ironic. "President Tang has put on such a grand funeral for his beloved daughter; it's truly a token of his affection."
Tang Nanquan was hypocritical and pretentious. "Lili is my only precious daughter. How could I not feel heartbroken? Every time I think about it, my heart aches terribly!"
Tang Li clenched her fists tightly.
She couldn't see her father's pain at all; she only saw Tang Nanquan's shrewd calculations!
"dad!"
A clear and melodious girl's voice rang out, and Tang Li was startled, glancing at the girl in the red dress.
Today is a funeral, and she's dressed so formally!
Could it be that the Tang family has lost Tang Li and welcomed another young lady?
This must be Song Lan's daughter, Ye Ru!
It's ironic that Tang Nanquan showed no grief or attempt to investigate the truth after his own daughter died; instead, he immediately accepted his ex-wife's daughter!
"Mr. Tang, are you not puzzled by your daughter's death? Don't you plan to go to the police station to check?"
Tang Nanquan was confused by Shen Qingxu's question.
This is his family matter, it has nothing to do with President Shen, right?
Why does President Shen meddle so much?
"President Shen, I've heard about this incident. It's a tragic accident. I never imagined that Lili would have such an accident. I'm heartbroken, but there's nothing I can do. I can only offer my condolences."
Tang Li clenched her fists even tighter.
In the crowd, she heard someone shout, "President Lu is here!"
Is it Lu Jianshen?
For a moment, Tang Li was dazed. She turned her head and saw the man with a white flower pinned to his chest enter the gate of Fenglan Garden with Chen Lei.
Tang Nanquan looked extremely grief-stricken, and his face was completely bloodless.
"Mr. Lu, you've arrived!"
Lu Jianshen didn't say anything, but silently stepped forward and burned incense.
His eyes were filled with an overwhelming sadness.
Why did such a tragedy happen when I was only away on a business trip for two days?
"Mr. Tang, I will definitely find out the cause of Lili's death and will never let her die in vain!"
Lu Jianshen stared at Tang Nanquan, the threat in his eyes was obvious. His deeper meaning was that even if that person was a member of the Tang family, he would never tolerate it!
Tang Nanquan quickly said, "President Lu, I spent the whole day at the police station yesterday. Lili died in an accidental car accident. As her biological father, I am also very saddened, but that is the truth!"
Ye Ru was secretly delighted. She never expected that the man she met at the bar that day was Lu Jianshen.
With Tang Li dead, she has a chance—a chance to rise above others.
“Mr. Lu, I know you are heartbroken because your sister died. We are heartbroken too. Please take care of your grief. Shall I accompany you to the side to rest for a while so you can calm down?”
Lu Jianshen's cold eyes swept over her face, and he sneered.
