Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 565 - 558: Her Hatred (Part 2)

The last person to remove Grandma’s life support was Leng Yichen. Neither Bai Yiran nor Cheng Gang had the courage to do it.

At the moment Leng Yichen removed the life support, Bai Yiran held Grandma’s hand. It was still warm and soft, just like usual.

Bai Yiran watched as Grandma’s vital signs on the monitor gradually decreased until they finally became a straight line.

Grandma left just like that. If not for the tubes and machines, there wouldn’t be any difference from her being asleep.

Bai Yiran tightly gripped Grandma’s hand; it was still warm...

Because of the intubation, Grandma’s mouth wouldn’t close. When Bai Yiran gave her a wash, she pressed for a long time before it slowly closed.

Grandma liked cleanliness, so Bai Yiran dressed her in a set of clean, new clothes, making her look like an elderly person peacefully sleeping.

As Grandma’s only son, Cheng Gang was expected to preside over the funeral. However, this man, who had just endured the blows of losing his daughter and mother, couldn’t properly host the funeral at this moment.

Leng Yichen began preparing for Grandma’s funeral, while Bai Yiran showed remarkable strength, determined to send Grandma off well.

Grandma didn’t like seeing her cry, so she wouldn’t cry!

The funeral was grand, as it was for the President’s wife of Huamei International, Grandma, and prominent figures from all walks of life attended.

The funeral was personally presided over by Leng Yichen, and even Leng Liewei came to support the occasion, for no other reason than because the deceased was Xiao Xi’s great-grandmother!

When the news of Grandma’s passing spread, those long-lost relatives from the hometown all rushed to attend the funeral.

What they didn’t expect was that the funeral would be so grand, with each mourner being a notable figure.

For a moment, they almost thought they had walked into the wrong place. It wasn’t until they saw the pale faces of Bai Yiran and Cheng Gang that they dared to confirm they were in the right place.

It was only then they learned that Bai Yiran had married a wealthy and powerful boss.

The relatives, who had long since broken contact, took advantage of Grandma’s funeral to cozy up to her, but Bai Yiran had no time for such people and handed them over to Li Sha to handle.

Neither Luna nor Xia Lian appeared at the funeral, but the Xia family did come. However, Bai Yiran had them thrown out. She was already sparing them trouble out of respect for the late Cheng Shishi, and if the Xia family had any sense, they’d keep a low profile and not show up in front of Bai Yiran again!

The Xia family didn’t expect to be expelled. Xia Lian’s parents and brother had come, thinking it was natural for them to attend as in-laws of the Cheng family after the old lady’s passing. Especially upon hearing that the funeral was led by Leng Yichen of Huamei International, with Leng Liewei also in attendance, they were even more desperate to attend.

However, they had no idea that Grandma’s death had a direct connection to their daughter Xia Lian.

Ultimately, they didn’t even get close to the funeral hall and were thrown out. Helplessly, they left, muttering and cursing, planning to go home and ask Xia Lian what had really happened.

"Yiran, please accept my condolences!" Yao Zhiqing appeared before Bai Yiran in a black outfit once again.

In a short period, Yao Zhiqing had attended two funerals of Bai Yiran’s family. To say the least, a lot had been happening in Bai Yiran’s family lately.

"Thank you, President Yao." Bai Yiran’s eyes and nose were red, and she looked utterly spiritless.

"Sigh... don’t be too sad." Yao Zhiqing smiled, "Cheer up, the members of Group One are all eagerly anticipating your energetic return!"

At this moment, Yao Zhiqing’s words sounded somewhat grating to Bai Yiran, and she frowned, "Let’s talk about work later, President Yao. I’m not in the mood right now, as you can see."

"I understand." Yao Zhiqing smiled, her eyes inscrutable.

"Feel free, President Yao." Bai Yiran turned to look at Grandma’s portrait, ignoring Yao Zhiqing.

Yao Zhiqing’s expression was a bit awkward. After bowing to Grandma’s portrait, she left.

Just as Yao Zhiqing left, Wang Hai walked in anxiously, "Madam, where is the boss?"

Bai Yiran looked around, "He’s not here. Try looking in the back."

"Alright!" Wang Hai left urgently, having just received information from Chen Zhu about the true cause of Cheng Shishi’s death, eager to inform Leng Yichen.

As Bai Yiran watched Wang Hai, she suddenly remembered she also had something to discuss with Leng Yichen, so she got up and followed him out.
