You Are My Unforgettable Love

Chapter 1196: Goodbye, Second Brother (16)

Three days later.

The Lu family’s funeral.

Lu Nanze sat in his wheelchair in his mourning garment. At the entrance to greet the guests, he accepted condolences with an expressionless face.

He nodded mechanically in response to the people paying their last respects, and his expression didn’t change no matter who walked by. He did not speak a word.

In Suzhou, everyone wanted to please him, hence no one dared to point out his lack of manners. Besides, no one could really expect a family member of the deceased to put up a perfect show of manners.

Dad Lu was the closest family Lu Nanze had, his only father.

Now that he had died, Lu Nanze was truly alone.

As he contemplated this fact, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

He greeted guests that turned up until a couple stood before him.

At once, he heard a familiar voice call him, “Second Brother.”

Lu Nanze froze and looked up in disbelief as he realized it was Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan standing before him.

Both of them were in black, and they carried a peaceful expression on their faces. There was no hint of animosity.

Obviously, they weren’t here to create trouble, they were here to pay their respects.

Lu Nanze cast his gaze down and nodded at them. He said at once, “You’re here.”

It had only been a few days since Qiao Lian had seen him, but he had lost so much weight that he looked really different.

His face had sunken so much that his cheekbones were now prominent and his silhouette had sharpened. His eyes had darkened, making them even more mesmerizing.

Qiao Lian suddenly recalled that this was how he used to look in their younger days, when they hung out together. He used to be silent, only his eyes were dark and sparkling.

She sighed and said after a moment, “Second Brother, take it easy.”

Lu Nanze nodded.

Qiao Lian looked in and said finally, “I’ll go in and pay my last respects to Uncle Lu.”

Lu Nanze continued to nod.

She walked in and bowed in front of the altar. Then she offered a lit joss stick.

At the entrance.

Because Shen Liangchuan didn’t know Dad Lu, he didn’t have to pay his respects. He stood there looking at Lu Nanze.

It was quite late by the time they arrived, hence right now, there were fewer people coming.

The two men stared at each other.

After a considerable length of time, Shen Liangchuan suddenly spoke, “Do you regret it?”

Lu Nanze paused and asked, “Regret what exactly?”

Casting his gaze down, there was a hint of vengeance in his eyes as he said, “Burning the account book right in her face.”

He knew this remark would provoke and hurt the other man.

But the moment he thought of how pitifully Qiao Lian had cried all day, he couldn’t help making the remark.

Indeed, Lu Nanze’s pupils shrank back as though a nerve within him had been struck. He completely bristled.

Looking at Shen Liangchuan, he laughed once icily and said, “I have no regrets.”

“Even though Dad was no nice guy, he was my father. He is a part of me and raised me, and I could never have sent him to the guillotine.”

“So I, Lu Nanze, will never regret it.”

Shen Liangchuan’s eyes narrowed at those words as a hint of admiration flashed across his eyes.

He nodded and spoke again, “So you will have to remain single, while she and I are getting married.”

Lu Nanze frowned and said, “What did you say?”

“I said I am marrying Qiao Lian. We’re going to hold a wedding ceremony.”

A long overdue wedding ceremony.
