Chapter 409

Chapter 409

Zuo Chen returned home at night and lay on the large bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Since the car accident, he could only sleep in the Eden Apartment.

Now that he had left Eden Apartment, he couldn't bear to change his mind and go back to sleep. Damn it, he cursed in a low voice. When he thought of Qiao Ran, he felt hot and uncomfortable all over. He simply got up, turned on the computer and started working.

The work accumulated during the period of amnesia has been basically completed. The real estate contract in T city that was delayed due to the car accident has also been re-signed. In the past two days, I have won several new projects, and my career can be said to be going smoothly.

He was concentrating on organizing his work, and before he knew it, it was already dawn outside. He wanted to go back to bed and rest for a while, but he was completely sleepless. When he was about to stand up, the doorbell suddenly rang.

He looked at his watch. It was only five o'clock. Who could it be so early?

He turned on the video doorbell video surveillance on the table in confusion. When he saw that the people coming were Shen Xiuyun and Zuo Xiaoxiao, he frowned and immediately pressed the remote control button to automatically open the door.

Shen Xiuyun and Zuo Xiaoxiao saw the door open and walked in quickly.

Seeing Zuo Chenye coming down from upstairs, Shen Xiuyun gasped and waved to him and said, "Chenye, come down quickly. Something big happened to the Xia family."

Hearing this, Zuo Chenye quickened his pace and walked down the stairs, frowning and saying coldly, "What happened?"

"I just found out that Xia Zhenhai, the old man of the Xia family and the commander-in-chief of the army, passed away yesterday. It is said that he accidentally fell down the stairs at his home and died of excessive blood loss." Shen Xiuyun had heavy dark circles under her eyes and was not in a hurry so early in the morning.

make up.

"How could this happen?" Zuo Chenye was confused. An Yunxi was not doing anything at home all day long, nor did he come to the group for internship. After all, it was really strange that the old man could die in his own home.

"Hey, brother, didn't you sleep last night?" Zuo Xiaoxiao asked in surprise when she noticed that Zuo Chenye was fully dressed and didn't take off his watch.

"Yeah." Zuo Chenye looked serious and said casually, "I have some official business to deal with."

"Chen Ye, you've been in coma for a week and you're in a hurry to be discharged. You haven't taken good care of yourself. You can't stay up late to deal with official matters. Your body will be overwhelmed." Shen Xiuyun muttered with concern, "The work will never be finished, so you should rest."

"I understand." Zuo Chenye changed the topic, "Xia Zhenhai passed away, we should go there to pay our respects."

"Yes, I just came to discuss this matter with you. No, I came right after dawn." Shen Xiuyun pulled Zuo Chenye to sit down on the sofa, "Chenye, our Zuo family will be with Xia at least in the future.

My family is my in-laws' family. Although you are not married yet, the etiquette cannot be less."

"Prepare a heavy gift and I will go to the Xia family in person." Zuo Chenye said simply.

"I heard that the Xia family does not want to announce this matter to the outside world. Mr. Xia's body may be escorted back to the capital today and buried tomorrow. We have to express our condolences early, and it will be too late if it is too late." Shen Xiuyun said, "It's such a big thing.

Qin Nianzhen didn't even tell me about it. I still listened to what my friend at the top of the military told me. He said that he wouldn't let anyone know about it internally and only told me alone because we are related to the Xia family."

"Yes, yes, An Yunxi didn't contact me either. I called her, but she didn't answer the phone. Something happened to the Xia family, and our family can't sit idly by. Let's go together." Zuo Xiaoxiao said from the side.

"Okay. Without further ado, we can arrive at Xia's house before seven o'clock. Even if they want to return to the capital, they won't leave so early." Zuo Chenye raised his wrist to look at his watch and said, "I'll sleep for half an hour and wait.

Get up later, change your clothes and leave. You guys wait here for me for a while."

"Okay. You should rest quickly." Shen Xiuyun waved her hands quickly, "I will prepare the other things." By the way, she also had to put on light makeup, so she couldn't go to Xia's house without a face like this.

"Um."

After saying that, Zuo Chenye turned around and went upstairs.

Xia family.

Although the sky was bright, it was still gloomy without a trace of cloud.

The whole house seemed to be immersed in heavy grief, with white curtains hanging on the door and black ribbons fluttering in the wind.

When Zuo Chenye, Shen Xiuyun and Zuo Xiaoxiao arrived, the Xia family had not yet set off for the capital.

A military truck was parked in front of the door, and several military vehicles were parked in the yard, looking ready to go.

Shen Xiuyun walked in first. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a black coffin placed in the middle of the main hall. Qin Ninzhen was wearing a black suit and sitting next to the coffin.

An Yunxi was sitting on the other side of the coffin. She was holding the coffin with one hand and leaning on the coffin with her whole body. Her face was pale and weak, and there were still traces of tears.

Shen Xiuyun quickly walked towards Qin Nianzhen and said hello, "Nianzhen, are you okay? You didn't tell me that such a big thing happened at home. At least I can help you share some of it."

Qin Nianzhen slowly raised his head and was slightly surprised to see Zuo Chenye coming, "Why are you all here? I didn't want to disturb you. We are going back to the capital to handle the funeral."

"Hello, Auntie. Chenye, you're here. Xiaoxiao, you're here too." An Yunxi saw them coming and quickly stood up to say hello. She wiped her tears carelessly and sniffed, appearing to be confused.

pity.

Shen Xiuyun held An Yunxi's hands distressedly, "Look at you, you look so bad. Don't cry so much, your health is important, don't forget that you are still pregnant with the child."

Zuo Chenye just nodded and said nothing more.

Zuo Xiaoxiao also stepped forward to hold An Yunxi's arm, "I called you, but you didn't answer the phone. Do you want to rush me to death? You didn't tell me that such a big thing happened, do you think I'm your friend?"

"This... what mom means is, don't tell anyone. I..." An Yunxi hesitated and said.

"I asked her not to say it. Sorry, Xiuyun, you also know that the Xia family's identity is relatively sensitive. The old man is the military commander. Even if he passes away, he has to hide it from the outside world. He has to wait for the instructions from the superiors before he can publish the official obituary. Details

According to regulations, the content cannot be disclosed. That’s why I didn’t tell you.” Qin Nian sincerely apologized.

"What are you talking about? I'm just worried. Hey, I saw Mr. Xia was fine a while ago, but now he's gone. I never dreamed of it." Shen Xiuyun sighed.

When An Yunxi mentioned something sad, she pretended to cry again. She turned her face away and secretly wiped away her tears.

"You go to the capital, when will you come back?"

Shen Xiuyun finally told her the main purpose of coming today. The engagement was about to happen, but Mr. Xia died suddenly. Don't affect the engagement.
