No one knows whether Yanjing has been cursed, but no matter what, since Han Zhenbei passed away, Yanjing has never been in peace.
Mr. Chen died, and so did Mai Changqing. They all died in the Chen family.
Yanjing was cursed,
Perhaps it is more appropriate to say that the Chen family is cursed.
Chen Yifei, the head of the Chen family, is still lying in the hospital. His life has been saved, but his injuries are serious. Everyone is silent and dare not make any big moves during this sensitive period.
Some people think it is a precursor to the great melee of the Three Kingdoms, and some people think that regardless of whether Chen Yifei knows who his opponent is, there will probably be a big fuss.
But the Mai family and the Ling family have no time to think about this.
As Lin Ze said, the most important thing at the moment is to let Mai Changqing rest in peace. The dead are the most important. What is more important than the dead?
Revenge or not, we must let the deceased rest in peace first.
Lin Ze and Han Xiaoyi are both planning to attend Mai Changqing's memorial service. According to Chinese tradition, when a young man dies, theoretically there won't be much movement. After all, he has no descendants and no juniors, so holding a memorial service It's a little weird,
But Ling Hong wants to do it,
Not only to do it, but also to do it vigorously,
Ling Hong wants to do it, who dares to refuse?
Both the Ling family and the Mai family understood Ling Hong's thoughts, and no one objected and strongly supported her.
Lin Ze straightened his collar in the mirror, and instead of frivolously applying hairspray as before, he said with regret, "Tell me, if Mai Changqing wasn't Chen Yifei's brother, could he be our friend."
"There are no ifs in the world." Han Xiaoyi sat on the bedside, combing her hair, and whispered, "But with his character, even if he knew that Chen Yifei was a beast in disguise, I would probably keep his secret for him."
"You doubt it too." Lin Ze frowned slightly, turned around,
"Are there many people who would be so suspicious?" Han Xiaoyi said with a wry smile, "If Ling Hong hadn't talked to me, I would never have thought that way."
"Even if he is a cold-blooded beast, he will not attack his good brother for many years easily. Why? It can only be because Mai Changqing knows his secret, and this secret will cause Chen Yifei to suffer a huge blow." Han Xiaoyi put down. Mu Shu slowly stood up and said, "Mai Changqing knows about it, so he wants to die."
"Where is Ling Hong?" Lin Ze looked a little solemn and asked word by word, "Does she know?"
"I don't know." Han Xiaoyi bit her lip gently and said calmly, "If she knew, she would definitely not tell Mai Changqing. If she didn't know, how could she guess that Mai Changqing died at the hands of Chen Yifei, let alone Even putting so much effort into making this play for Chen Yifei to watch."
"She wants to paralyze Chen Yifei and make Chen Yifei believe that she doesn't know anything." Lin Ze's mouth was filled with bitterness.
This woman has really good intentions. If she were herself, she might not have the determination.
"But is Chen Yifei such an easy person to deceive?" Han Xiaoyi sighed and murmured, "Father once told me that there are two people in Yanjing who cannot be easily angered. One is Xue Bailing and the other is Chen Yifei. "
Lin Ze's expression was solemn and he kept silent.
…
Chen Yifei was lying on the bed calmly, with a strange color in his beautiful womanly eyes, and remained silent for a long time.
After waking up from the hospital, he ordered someone to take him home.
He doesn't like living in the hospital. He didn't like it before, he doesn't like it now, and he won't like it in the future.
He is a very vigilant person. A person who has buried the seeds of hatred since he was a child will always be vigilant and wary of everyone.
He doesn't trust the nurses, doctors, everything in the hospital,
Only when he returns to his own room and big bed can he sleep peacefully.
But today, he was not sleepy. He had not slept all night. When people informed him that today was Mai Changqing's memorial service, he could no longer close his eyes.
There was a pack of cigarettes on the bedside table. After quitting smoking for many years, he started smoking again.
snap,
Lit a cigarette, Chen Yifei took a deep breath, let the smoke circulate in his lungs, and then slowly exhaled,
Pursing his lips, he stood up slowly, suppressing the sharp pain in his lower abdomen, dressed and got out of bed.
He is going to see Mai Changqing off for the last time. No matter what the purpose is, he has to go.
Tian Xia Er, who had been standing by the bed, saw him getting up and asked with a cold and dull expression: "You want to go."
"Why don't you go?" Chen Yifei asked back,
"He may not want to see you." Number Two Under Heaven teased,
"But I want to see him." Chen Yifei said lightly, "Whether he wants to see me or not is his business, not mine."
The second best person in the world is astonished and doesn’t know how to speak.
"You are not satisfied with what I did." Chen Yifei asked,
"A little bit." Tian Xia Er paused and said again, "I'm very dissatisfied."
"You have a better way." Chen Yifei continued to ask,
"He said that he would keep it a secret." Number Two Under Heaven said,
"You also said that you would work for me wholeheartedly." Chen Yifei suddenly smiled, a little weirdly, "Have you done that?"
The second most silent person in the world,
No one is 100% sure of doing anything in the world, so people who are sensible enough never make promises easily. No matter how confident they are in themselves, accidents will happen.
The second best person in the world is a dull enough person. He has no interest except martial arts. However, he was also shaken because of Mai Changqing's incident, which was inconsistent with what he said before.
"I don't trust him, but I only trust him now." Chen Yifei said calmly, "In the future, in the future, can I believe it?"
The Number Two Under Heaven exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "Ling Hong has been to the Han family during the past few days when you have been in bed."
"What have you done?" Chen Yifei asked,
"Go crazy." Number Two in the World said simply,
"It suits her style." Chen Yifei narrowed his eyes slightly and asked meaningfully, "How to end it."
"She fainted." Number Two in the World said,
"What about before? Did she faint before?" Chen Yifei asked,
"I went into shock twice." The second best person in the world was a little surprised by these questions, but still answered calmly,
Chen Yifei said nothing, but a complex color appeared in his eyes.
After a long while, he glanced out the window and murmured: "The memorial service is about to begin."
…
The sky was gray, and lead clouds covered the sky like a devil's body, making it difficult to tell whether it was early morning or evening.
It's late summer, a season where the air should be fresh and refreshing, but instead it gives people a cold and depressing atmosphere.
There were many cars parked outside the mourning hall, including people from the business world, the military, and the political world. The Han family was here, including Han Xiaoyi and Lin Ze. They were the most influential people in the Han family, and there were also people from the Xue family. Come, but only Xue Gui came. Aunt Xue's family was absent.
No one has any objections to this. The Xue family and Mai Changqing have nothing to do with each other. Xue Gui is enough.
After everyone had offered incense, they retreated to the lounge on the side to rest. Xue Gui was not polite and sat directly next to Lin Ze. He lit a cigarette and asked softly: "They didn't do anything to you, did they?"
"The pure will themselves be pure." Lin Ze shook his head bitterly, "But what happened to Mai Changqing is really unexpected."
"Who says it's not the case?" Xue Gui also sighed and said pitifully, "I haven't even met the child for the first time, but if he dies, he will die. The living people will probably suffer more. I don't know what happened to this woman Ling Hong. Stay with it."
Lin Ze's eyes flickered, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying, "Life will pass."
Xue Gui was speechless and smoked a cigarette in silence.
After resting for a moment, a sparse exclamation suddenly came from outside the door,
Chen Yifei is here,
After everyone heard this, whether it was to watch the fun or for other reasons, they all got out of the lounge and quickly arrived at the mourning hall.
Chen Yifei is very haggard,
No one has ever seen such a haggard Chen Yifei.
He has always been shown as a handsome man. He has always been the most elegant and handsome young man. His etiquette and posture have never made people feel uncomfortable. But today, with the support of Chen Xueqin, he He walked slowly into the mourning hall, his handsome face was full of pain and guilt, his eyes were bloodshot, he walked slowly to the front of the mourning hall, and then fell to his knees on the ground in front of everyone,
Even my head was buried on the cold floor and refused to get up for a long time.
Chen Xueqin's eyes were dull and she turned her head away, unable to bear to look.
She knew about the relationship between Chen Yifei and Mai Changqing.
Mai Changqing only has one brother like him, and my brother only has one confidant friend like Mai Changqing. Now that he is dead, how can my brother not be sad or sad?
After more than ten years of relationship, even an animal can develop deep feelings, let alone a living person.
Everyone in the mourning hall had different thoughts. Some felt sad for the two most die-hard brothers in Yanjing, while others felt lucky. Although Mai Changqing didn't like fighting, he always used his own resources to help Chen Yifei, not to mention affecting the situation, but he would still do it. This has caused headaches for many people. Now that he is gone, Chen Yifei has lost an ally. In some future confrontations, wouldn't the benefits outweigh the disadvantages?
In the face of absolute interests, life is worthless and feelings are cheap, not to mention Mai Changqing, who has nothing to do with him.
Many thick black people think so in their hearts,
Chen Yifei's shoulders shook and his body trembled, as if he was trying his best to endure the heaviest sadness. It wasn't until Chen Xueqin pulled him back that he slowly raised his head.
His face was full of tears, his eyes were red and swollen, the tears stained his cheeks and stained his collar. His flawless white cheeks were haggard, like a frustrated aristocratic son, which made people feel pity for him. Such a feeling, at least many of the ladies and ladies who were watching wanted to take him into their arms and cherish him.
"Give me the fragrance." Chen Yifei said in a hoarse voice,
Chen Xueqin nodded, took the incense, lit it, and handed it to Chen Yifei, who was trembling slightly. The latter walked hard to the coffin, pierced the incense into the altar, bowed ninety degrees, bowed, bowed...
The relatives in the coffin gave him the greatest freedom and space. Even though Chen Yifei did not move after bowing, but stared at the portrait on the coffin with sad eyes, no one spoke.
In the eyes of many people, it is rare and rare for such a touching brotherly love to appear in the upper class society, and they cannot help but feel sad for the relationship between these brothers.
After a long time, Chen Yifei turned around and walked step by step towards Ling Hong next to the mourning platform.
This woman had already cried out her tears. She just stood among her relatives with empty eyes and a white cloth tie on her head, which made people feel pity and sympathy.
Chen Yifei moved to her and was about to say something when Ling Hong slapped her in the face without any warning.
snap,
Crisp and sweet, extremely loud,
The beating made Chen Yifei motionless and shocked everyone to the point of being stunned on the spot.
"Why wasn't you the one who died?" Ling Hong, who was so silent a second ago that she was ignored by others, suddenly screamed,
"I'm sorry..." Chen Yifei lowered his head slightly, ignoring the burning cheeks.
"Why do you want him to die for you?" Ling Hong stumbled forward, weakly grabbed Chen Yifei's collar, and said sternly, "Is he your shield? Why are you still alive when he is dead?"
"I'm sorry..." Chen Yifei's face lowered,
"I'm sorry, it's useful."
snap,
With a slap on the other side, Ling Hong roared: "You should be the one who died, why did he die, why,."
Chen Yifei pursed his lips, but could not speak.
Ling Hong kept beating Chen Yifei, but no one dared to stop him. Chen Yifei acquiesced to Ling Hong's behavior. Of course, outsiders did not dare to stop it. As for Mai Changqing's family members, why weren't they angry with Chen Yifei? Why was his son the one who died when he was assassinated? ,
They haven't been completely occupied by sadness, and there is still a trace of reason to control their behavior, but Ling Hong can't control it, so she needs to vent...
Ling Hong finally got tired of the beating, and sat down on the ground, hugging Chen Yifei's thigh tightly, crying bitterly, which was unbearable to witness.
"Why... why did he die? Why did you ask him to die on your behalf... Do you know that he hasn't even seen his son yet, and hasn't had time to hear his son call him father?" Ling Hong sobbed with tears streaming down her face, " If he dies, what should I do? What should I do with my son?"
Chen Yifei pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and said softly: "I will take care of you. If anyone wants to hurt you, I will cut him into pieces."
Ling Hong raised her head in astonishment, staring at Chen Yifei with hazy and dull eyes. Suddenly, as if she suddenly regained her strength, she pushed Chen Yifei away like crazy, pointed at him and shouted: "Get out, get out, I don't want to see you again in my life." You, I hate you, get out."
Chen Yifei stood in pain in the mourning platform, seemingly not planning to leave. Ling Hong grabbed a stick and swung it at him.
Bang,
The stick hit him hard on the head, and blood flowed all over his face.
"Get out." Ling Hong roared like the wind, "Get out of here."
Bleeding,
Onlookers will no longer watch the show,
Mai Changqing's family members hurriedly grabbed Ling Hong, who was going crazy. Chen Xueqin took out a tissue and wiped Chen Yifei's wound. She took his arm and walked out, persuading him: "Brother, let's go back first, and wait until Sister Ling's anger subsides." If you come and accuse me again, she will beat you to death if you don't leave."
Chen Yifei looked at Ling Hong with guilt-filled eyes for a long time, then sighed quietly, turned around and left this place of right and wrong.
Chen Yifei left, but the mourning hall continued to be heated. It was not until Ling Hong fainted again that she was carried away.
Lin Ze and others watched this tragic scene with complicated expressions, looked at each other, and were speechless for a long time.
Chen Xueqin sent Chen Yifei into the car, sat in the driver's seat and drove away. While driving, she handed Chen Yifei a tissue, but the latter said: "Concentrate on driving."
Chen Xueqin nodded, but after a while, she secretly glanced at Chen Yifei and asked softly: "Brother, will you blame Sister Ling?"
"No." Chen Yifei wiped the blood on his forehead and shook his head gently.
"Well, our family owes her a life now, how should we repay her in the future?" Chen Xueqin sighed,
When Chen Yifei heard this, he just remained silent.
"Why not," Chen Xueqin suddenly said, "Brother, why don't you become the child's adoptive father? Brother Mai died with a knife for you. You can repay Mai by being the child's adoptive father and educating him well." Brother."
Chen Yifei was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "This requires your sister Ling to agree. She wants to kill me now, so how can she make me the godfather of her child."
"Leave this to me. When Sister Ling's anger subsides, I will persuade her." Chen Xueqin said eagerly,
"I'll go in person." Chen Yifei said with a hint of brilliance in his eyes without noticing, "Only in this way can I atone for my sin."
"Well, that's fine." Chen Xueqin let out a breath of stale breath and concentrated on driving.
Chen Yifei slightly moved his gaze to the window and fell into deep thought.
…
Ling Hong lay in bed for several hours before waking up. The first thing she did when she woke up was to ask her mother how the memorial service went. After knowing that it went well, she forced herself to get up, no matter how her mother persuaded her. She also didn’t want to continue to rest,
"Mom, I'm fine." Ling Hong shook her head with a pale face, "Don't worry, I will control my emotions and won't mess around again."
The mother looked at her daughter with distress on her face and was about to say something, but there was a lump in her throat and she couldn't help crying.
Why is my daughter’s life so miserable? Why is her husband gone just after giving birth?
God, you really have to torture my daughter to death.
Ling's mother, a strong business woman, turned her head, not wanting her daughter to see her crying.
Ling Hong hugged her loving mother from behind and said softly: "Mom, I'm fine. I'm your daughter. I'm the princess of the Ling family. What can happen to me? Changqing is gone. Can't I be alone?" Do you want to support your children? Is your daughter the kind of person who cannot withstand a blow?"
"Alone." Ling's mother was shocked and stared at her daughter in disbelief, "Although Chang Qing just left, my mother said this was inappropriate, but you..."
"Mom." Ling Hong said with determination on her face, "In this life, I can only tolerate Evergreen in my heart."
…
During lunch time, Ling Hong knelt alone in front of the coffin, staring at her husband in the photo with gentle and haggard eyes, and said softly: "Changqing, I said before that if you were impotent, I would wear ten or eight hats for you. , Actually I lied to you. I love you so much, how could I cuckold you? You trust me so much, how could I be willing to deceive you."
"You have such a strong self-esteem. If I fool around, you will definitely be so angry that you will crawl out of the coffin to settle the score with me."
"Don't worry, I will stay a widow for you. I didn't mind men secretly looking at me before, but if anyone dares to peek at me in the future, I will gouge his eyes."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of our parents. You are gone, but I am still here. They have lost their son, but they still have my daughter. I will help you fulfill your filial piety."
"Changqing, you know, my son looks like you, with big eyes and thick eyebrows. He will definitely be a handsome boy in the future. When he grows up, I will tell him that his father is a good man who is loyal and a good friend. He is a willing and willing man. A man who will do anything for his wife is..." Ling Hong controlled her tone and said softly, "Changqing, my son's name is Mai Zhicheng, I call him Chengcheng. Although he can't speak yet, I know that he I can understand it."
"But why should he be honest?"
"You are so honest and loyal, why did you get killed by your brother?"
"Didn't I tell you that he is very dangerous and should not be approached. He will kill you. Why don't you listen to me?"
"I will not let him go. He killed you. I want him to repay you a hundred times. I want him to die in despair, and I want him to endure the most painful torture in the world."
