Chapter 279: Losing two loved ones at the same time on the same day
Lin Jiaran got up very early in the morning and went out without having breakfast. She wore a white long dress. Zuo Nai did not accompany her. Today, Lu Jingshen drove the car, and they went to the cemetery together to pay tribute to Lin Manru.
When we arrived at the cemetery, Shen Boren was already standing in front of the tomb.
"...Xiao Ran." Unlike the way he addressed her in the past, Shen Boren called out softly. However, when he saw Lu Jingshen behind Lin Jiaran, Shen Boren still felt a little surprised.
Lu Jingshen placed the flowers in front of the tombstone.
The couple bowed in front of the tombstone and stayed for a while. Then Lin Jiaran took Lu Jingshen's hand and left first, leaving Shen Boren behind.
At the entrance of the cemetery, Shen Boren stepped forward.
"Xiao Ran, your grandpa woke up early this morning and he wants to see you..."
"Anyone can call me that, except you. Especially today, I really don't like you calling me that."
"Jia Jia, I know you blame me."
"That's good to know. I do blame you!"
Lin Jiaran opened the car door and got in first. Lu Jingshen glanced at Shen Boren and walked into the driver's seat without stopping.
"Lu Jingshen, let's go see grandpa."
"it is good."
Not long ago, Mr. Shen was transferred from the City Central Hospital to the Military District Hospital.
In the ward, the white-haired old man, although conscious, was actually on his deathbed.
Lin Jiaran walked into the ward, stood beside the bed, held the old man's outstretched hand and shouted: "Grandpa, I'm Jiajia!"
Lin Jiaran pulled Lu Jingshen to introduce him to the old man, and Lu Jingshen greeted the old man.
The old man wanted to say something but couldn't. Finally, he nodded as if to indicate that he understood. Looking at the person in front of him, the excited tears in the corners of the old man's eyes left zigzag marks on his dry face, and a kind smile bloomed.
Shen Boren rushed directly to the hospital from the cemetery. He was aware of the old man's condition. He knew that Lin Jiaran would go to the cemetery. The old man wanted to see his granddaughter, so he waited at the cemetery early.
Just like a sharp autumn wind, a yellow leaf fell down, and the old man's dying wish was fulfilled. The old man's kind smile gradually froze, and he slowly closed his eyes, but the smile on his lips did not disappear.
She had always been afraid of ghosts, but at this moment she didn't seem to have any fear. Instead, she calmly watched the professionals preparing the old man's body in the ward.
Mr. Shen died of illness in the hospital. In accordance with his last wishes, everything was kept simple and the Shen family did not alert the media to announce the news of his death.
Upon hearing the news, Lin Yehua and his wife rushed over from Ancheng. The old man who died in the morning was cremated and buried in the afternoon. This was also the old man's special instruction. He did not require any etiquette or practice. There were not many people at the funeral. They were all relatives of the Shen family, and there were no other outsiders.
After the funeral, everyone gave the old man a final farewell in the cemetery. In front of the old man's grave, Shen Boren gave Lin Jiaran the box that the old man had asked him to pass on before he died.
"Jia Jia, this is what your grandfather asked me to give to you." Shen Boren handed over an exquisite wooden box.
Lin Jiaran took it with both hands.
After the funeral, Lin Jiaran held the small box in her hand and sat in the car without saying a word.
"I want to go and see the Jingjiang Bridge."
"Okay!" Lu Jingshen turned around at the intersection, changed direction and navigated to the location of Jingjiang Bridge.
Standing on the bridge, Lin Jiaran still held the box in her hand.
"The Jingjiang Bridge in my childhood memory seems to have not changed much."
Lu Jingshen walked over and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Cry if you want to."
"I'm not crying. You just want to see me lose face so you can laugh at me later."
Box, she opened the small wooden box, inside the box were several old photos, loaded with memories of the past. At that time, she often stayed at her grandfather's lap. Even though they didn't meet often over the years, they always kept in touch. Now the person who accompanied her and left a good impression on her childhood went to a faraway place, and they would never see each other again. She lost two of her closest relatives at the same time on the same day at different times.
"Lu Jingshen, I'm a little sad, but I don't want to cry."
Lin Jiaran was still very calm and seemed to be in a stable mood, but the more so, the more worried he became. She was very sad the whole day, but she didn't make any noise or make any noise. She couldn't vent her accumulated emotions.
"I'll take you somewhere."
Jincheng Public Security Bureau
"What are you doing here?"
Lu Jingshen didn't explain much, he just took Lin Jiaran's hand and walked inside.
Since Sun Wenxiu had a card that could be used at will, she had been living a pretty good life every day. She was either shopping in malls buying limited luxury goods or spending money in romantic places. She spent money lavishly and even bought several small villas in Jincheng. She also transferred her son to an aristocratic school.
Sun Wenxiu even hired more than ten servants in the villa who had clear division of labor to serve her every day. As for Sun Mingyue, Sun Wenxiu heard that she had an affair with a rich man, but she had forgotten about her mother. Sun Wenxiu was also a person who could easily break up with others, and she had endless money, so she no longer had any concerns about Sun Mingyue.
The police had sufficient evidence and had long received an arrest warrant from their superiors. They were cracking down one by one on those suspected of committing crimes of a campus gang nature. After verification, it was found that Sun Wenxiu was also suspected of stealing bank cards, and the amount involved was huge. Last night, the relevant departments arrested Sun Wenxiu overnight.
At the time of the arrest, Sun Wenxiu was still in the villa, admiring the roomful of luxury goods she had bought with satisfaction. A group of uniformed investigators rushed into the villa, showed their identification and explained the whole story. Sun Wenxiu was arrested. The other offenders, including the Xiang Kun brothers, confessed everything they had done with Sun Wenxiu after being arrested.
Following reports from the public, the police arrested Sun Mingyue who was taking contraband drugs in an apartment.
In two interrogation rooms, Sun Wenxiu and Sun Mingyue were being questioned by the police.
"What's going on between the two of them?" With the permission of the public security department, they were allowed as an exception to watch the police interrogating the case in the monitoring room. Lin Jiaran looked at Lu Jingshen in confusion.
It had only been a month since they last met, but Sun Mingyue had changed so much that she almost didn't recognize her. She didn't know what she had gone through to become so skinny and look so unlike a human being.
Lu Jingshen looked at the two people on the screen without saying a word, his eyes indifferent as if he was oblivious to the situation in front of him. Seeing that Lu Jingshen didn't say anything, Lin Jiaran just watched and listened quietly.
Faced with the evidence, Sun Wenxiu recounted everything she had done. The reason she did this was simply because Lin Jiaran was the heir to a will, and she wanted to get that will. She had no way to start at the Shen family, so she tried every means to get Lin Jiaran to go to that school. Sun Wenxiu said that she wanted Lin Jiaran to die slowly in torture so that no one would find out. It was a pity that her wish did not come true.
Over the years, she has always felt guilty towards Sun Wenxiu, thinking that she was ignorant and had harmed her. She also hated her because she came to the Shen family and changed her originally stable life. But at first, she really liked Sun Wenxiu and felt that she was very good to her, with a motherly love.
I once thought that my experiences were retribution for harming others, but I didn’t expect that it was all planned by Sun Wenxiu…
Lin Jiaran walked out without finishing the interrogation, and Lu Jingshen followed closely behind.
