Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 543 - 536: Not an Accident (Part 5)
After Cheng Shishi’s incident, the family reached a consensus not to tell Grandma for the time being, to avoid any further distress that she couldn’t handle.
Although Uncle and Aunt are in agony now, they agree with this approach. However, their spirits are darkened from then on, and their attitude towards Bai Yiran became indifferent, laced with alienation.
Bai Yiran knows that ultimately Uncle and Aunt blame Cheng Shishi’s death on her.
In such a situation, they need someone to vent to. Since the at-fault driver has already been brought to justice, Bai Yiran became their target to vent their resentment.
Leng Yichen used his influence to suppress the news about this traffic accident to prevent Grandma from learning about it through other channels.
With Leng Yichen’s assistance, the Cheng Family quietly held a funeral for Cheng Shishi, but out of concern for Grandma, they didn’t dare to notify too many people to attend.
For a while, the funeral scene was somewhat desolate.
Xia Lian sat crouching in front of Cheng Shishi’s portrait, crying uncontrollably, looking at the sparse group of people sending her daughter off, Xia Lian’s emotions once again collapsed.
Why did her daughter die so painfully, and now even the funeral can’t be upright and grand!
"Shishi! My Shishi!" Xia Lian lay on the ground, feeling the cold surface, her cries piercing and heart-wrenching.
Some of Cheng Shishi’s classmates who came to attend the funeral, after hearing Xia Lian’s cries, stayed briefly and then left one after another.
The scene was simply too eerie, especially with that chilling sensation, combined with Xia Lian’s cries and Cheng Shishi’s enlarged portrait, they might have nightmares if they didn’t leave.
Seeing those classmates who usually played well with Cheng Shishi fleeing, Xia Lian seemed provoked, suddenly stood up and pointed at those classmates, shouting, "Shishi was so good to you all! You don’t even want to stay a moment longer for her! Aren’t you afraid Shishi will come for you in the middle of the night?!"
Upon hearing Xia Lian’s words, those classmates hastened their steps, looking back at Xia Lian as if she was crazy. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
At this moment, Bai Yiran returned from seeing off the guests, first saw those fleeing classmates, and then Xia Lian’s hideous expression.
After the earlier provocation, seeing Bai Yiran standing there unharmed, while her Cheng Shishi was about to be buried in ashes.
Xia Lian once again crazily charged at Bai Yiran, "Bai Yiran! Give me back my daughter! Give me back my daughter!"
Xia Lian was irrationally convinced that Bai Yiran was the culprit responsible for Cheng Shishi’s death, ignoring the true perpetrator of the car accident.
At this time, Leng Yichen was not by Bai Yiran’s side. Just as Xia Lian was about to pounce on Bai Yiran, Bai Yiran instinctively retreated and happened to bump into someone. As she turned around, she saw Wu Chengzu.
Xia Lian’s family timely held her back, but they remained clear-headed, seeing her madness.
Who is Bai Yiran? She’s Leng Yichen’s wife! They couldn’t afford to offend her!
"Let me go!" Xia Lian struggled frantically, Cheng Shishi’s death was a huge blow to her, and she needed an outlet!
Xia Lian’s family held onto her tightly, dragging her away from the shrine.
For a moment, only Bai Yiran and Wu Chengzu were left in the shrine.
Due to Wu Chengzu, Cheng Shishi, and Bai Yiran’s previous unpleasantness, which resulted in a long-lasting turmoil at home. Therefore, upon encountering Wu Chengzu at this moment, Bai Yiran really couldn’t put on a friendly face.
