Gu family.
Grandpa Gu stood guard in front of the spirit hall of the Grandmother Gu. His expression was sorrowful and his eyes spiritless.
Gu Shen walked to the Grandpa Gu with a sorrowful expression, and knelt on the ground without saying a word.
One day.
After leaving for a whole day, the damage he received was not small. He was constantly immersed in sorrow and grief, because he was the one who failed to protect the Grandmother Gu and allowed others to kill him.
Seeing the Grandpa Gu in pain was not easy for him.
Grandpa Gu and Grandmother Gu had a deep bond of love, he looked at them with endless envy all the way. Now that Grandmother Gu had left, Grandpa Gu was the person who could not take it the most.
He could not feel that kind of pain, but he knew that Grandpa Gu would rather die than live.
"Grandfather, this is my fault. You hit me and scold me!" "I only hope for you to take care of your body. I've already lost my grandmother, so I don't want to lose you."
Grandpa Gu did not say a word, he silently looked at the mourning hall, his gaze landing on the portrait of Grandmother Gu.
Just then, Gu Yuan and Zhou Lin walked over.
Both of their expressions were gloomy, as they looked at Grandpa Gu and Gu Shen silently.
After a long while, as if a century had passed, Grandpa Gu finally opened his mouth: "Even if I hit you, it's useless to scold you. Your grandmother won't be able to come back either." As he spoke, tears began to flow out of his eyes.
Looking at Grandpa Gu whose old tears had slipped all over his face, Gu Shen's heart ached even more.
Grandpa Gu stood up, and looked at Gu Shen sternly: "Stand up!" Pausing for a moment, she sighed, "There will always be a day when people die. Your grandmother already had cancer before this and had one foot in the coffin, and now that she's been killed and both feet in the coffin, that's a relief. After all, she doesn't have to suffer anymore."
He was forcing himself to accept the news of the old woman's death, or rather, he had tried to accept the days when the old woman had cancer.
After living his entire life, he must learn to be open-minded. Although the old woman's departure was a grievous news, so what if he did not accept it? Since she had already left, what could he do?
Although he was sad, he still had to live a long time. After all, he was old and could live for a while longer. After he died, he would be able to see the old woman.
In addition, he still had to find the culprit that killed the old granny and make her pay with her life.
When Gu Shen heard that the Grandmother Gu had cancer, his mouth gaped open, and he was stunned for a long time.
"Dad, is this true?" Gu Yuan asked in surprise, feeling extremely excited about this matter.
Grandpa Gu nodded and sighed.
Although she did not like the domineering attitude of the Grandmother Gu, she was her mother-in-law after all. After getting along with her for so many years, how could she not be worried?
Gu Shen frowned, his gaze darkened, and asked: "Grandfather, when did this happen?" This matter was too surprising to him, he actually didn't know about it.
Grandpa Gu was silent, but the crease between her brows continued to deepen. "We've long since found it out, I didn't want you to worry about me, so I didn't say it." He had hidden it from them because he was afraid that they would feel sad.
Gu Shen's face was covered with a thick layer of frost, and his heart was aching.
His grandmother had died long ago, but he didn't know that.
Now that he was killed, he truly hated himself. If he caught the murderer, he definitely wouldn't let him off lightly.
"Mom …" Gu Yuan could no longer remain calm, he knelt in front of the mourning hall, because he had let down his mother.
Seeing this, Zhou Lin also kneeled.
Grandpa Gu looked down at the three people in front of him, and said worriedly: "Although this is a blow to us, the Gu family will not be defeated so easily. All of you better pull yourself together and capture the killer." After a pause, he added, "Furthermore, the matters on the side of the clan are becoming more and more troublesome. We cannot let our guard down at this moment. We need to be fully prepared to deal with them."
When those people saw that the old woman had died, they must have secretly been overjoyed.
"That's right!" I can't fall right now, and I can't let others see me as a joke. " Gu Yuan heaved a heavy sigh, and a dark glint flashed past his eyes: "The culprit is Ye Chaxu, I will go to the police station and report to them again, then request for the police to sentence her to death."
Hearing this, Gu Shen's eyes suddenly widened, and resisted with a face full of shock: "Dad, no, Ye Chaxu is not the killer." Although he was sad that Grandmother Gu left, Ye Chaxu was definitely not the killer.
Even if the truth pointed right at Ye Chaxu, he did not believe it because he believed what she said.
"Someone testified. And before the incident, she was with your grandmother. If she wasn't the murderer, then who was?" Gu Yuan's voice was somewhat cold, and the ice-cold tone hid a trace of danger.
A few black lines slid down Gu Shen's forehead as he frowned and explained to her, "The police are still investigating and only suspected her, and are not certain that she is the real culprit. We cannot make a presumptuous conclusion, not to mention that this is not an ordinary crime, but a murder.
"Enough. That woman has already infatuated you with your mind and lost your ego. You don't even believe that your grandmother was killed by her. You are truly an unfilial child." Gu Yuan's eyes darkened, becoming exceptionally frightening, and killing intent filled the depths of her eyes.
Zhou Lin was worried, he looked at Gu Shen and said uneasily: "Son, just divorce Ye Chaxu and let the police handle this matter, so that you can take revenge for your grandmother." He then earnestly advised: "Ye Chaxu is a cunning person, don't be fooled by her, be more rational, is that alright?"
Gu Shen's heart tensed up, he suppressed the anger in his heart and pretended to be calm.
He looked at Grandpa Gu and asked expectantly, "Grandfather, do you think that we should do the same?"
Grandpa Gu frowned and sighed.
Gu Shen's face revealed signs of fatigue, and his entire person seemed to have lost his soul.
Seeing that they were all silent, he calmed himself and let out a breath. "I don't care what you think of her, but I believe that she is not the murderer. I will find out the truth and avenge my grandmother while at the same time making you satisfied."
"Bastard, why are you so stupid?" Gu Yuan glared at Gu Shen in disdain, as he was too disappointed in his son.
Gu Shen's face was cold, helplessness could be seen within his unfathomable cold eyes. "There's nothing I can do, I love her." Because of love, she believed in Ye Chaxu unconditionally, and she was so innocent and kind, she would definitely not bear to lay her hands on Grandmother Gu.
Gu Yuan was so angry that his chest was moving up and down and he started to cough.
Seeing this, Zhou Lin reached out his hand to pat Gu Yuan's back and said in a cold and furious voice, "Gu Shen, Ye Chaxu is not worthy of your love. You brought her into your house, killed your grandmother, do you want to anger your father to death?"
"I didn't. She wasn't the killer." Gu Shen powerfully said, her low voice was frighteningly cold, "If I said I would investigate, I would understand, why didn't you guys give me the time? In your eyes, am I that useless, right or wrong? "
