Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Putting One’s Warm Face Against Someone’s Cold Butt Again
His eyes were glued to the coffin, as if he desperately wanted to throw himself upon it and embrace it.
Such emotional turmoil was something Su Yan had never seen in him before.
However, Chu Yuxiao’s agitation soon passed, forcing Su Yan to marvel at his strong self-control.
As the coffin was being carried out, and the servants were about to open the lid, Chu Yuxiao stopped them.
He said he would open it himself when the time came to bury it with the Old Marquis.
Next, they would carry the Old Madam’s coffin to the Chu Family’s cemetery.
The Chu family had resided in Linglan for generations, where they owned a private cemetery, and only members of the Chu Family could be buried there.
By the time it came to Chu Yuxiao’s generation, he was the only one left…
When they arrived at the Chu Family cemetery, it was already afternoon, and no one had had a drop of water all day.
Chu Yuxiao, concerned that Aunt Lan could not endure it, had someone prepare a bowl of bird’s nest for her, but Aunt Lan couldn’t eat at all and had remained without food.
Once they found the Old Marquis’s grave, incense was burned, heads were bowed, and ritual performed, and the grave was also dug up.
When the two coffins were laid side by side, Aunt Lan could not hold back her tears and began to cry loudly.
Her crying was so loud that it stunned everyone.
No matter how Su Yan tried, she could not calm her, and eventually, even Chu Yuxiao failed to soothe her.
After crying for a while, she suddenly stopped her tears and smiled briefly.
“Xiao’er, could you step back for a moment? Auntie would like to speak some private words to your parents,” she said to Chu Yuxiao with a smile.
Her smile was radiant, possessing a morbid beauty that seemed somewhat unreal.
Su Yan and Chu Yuxiao exchanged glances, dismissed all the servants, and left Aunt Lan alone.
They stopped at a place where they couldn’t see her, and Su Yan said worriedly to Chu Yuxiao,
“I always feel something is off with Aunt Lan being left alone.”
Chu Yuxiao gave her a bland look and said nothing.
Yet, his glance in Aunt Lan’s direction betrayed a flicker of concern.
Su Yan pouted; she was again offering her warm face to someone’s cold backside.
If he ever wants to speak to her in the future, she won’t respond—let him be mad!
What do you think?
