Chapter 311: Want to Dance at Chen Kexin’s Grave (1)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Yining lay on the bed and heard her phone ring.

She picked it up and took a look. It was a message from Lu Zhi.

[Yining, Kexin passed away. It was a car accident.]

[Grandma fainted from crying a few times. 1 think I’ll be home late.]

[Go to bed early. Don’t think too much.]

Three consecutive messages left Jiang Yining feeling a bit dazed.

If she wasn’t a top-notch hacker, she would have thought that someone was playing a prank on Lu Zhi by hacking his phone and sending her a message.

Jiang Yining called Lu Zhi, and he answered promptly.

“Hey, are you alright? Do you want me to accompany you?”

Jiang Yining asked worriedly.

“I’m definitely lying to you if I say that I’m fine.” Lu Zhi said in a calm voice, “Yining, when Kexin was still a baby, she entered the Lu family with Aunt Chen. I practically watched her grow up. Aunt Chen refused to give her breast milk, so her health has been poor since she was young. She gets sick from time to time.”

“But this sickly girl jumped into the cold lake in the middle of winter to save me. She pulled me up forcefully.”

Jiang Yining listened to him quietly.

She had never been a part of their past.

Therefore, she sometimes envied Chen Kexin for having so many shared memories with Lu Zhi.

However, she could accept it.

She hadn’t been involved in the past, but from now on, she would integrate every bit of his past into her own.

Lu Zhi spoke for a long time. Then, he said listlessly, “The biggest mistake she made in her life was falling in love with me.”

He treated her like a sister.

If Kexin hadn’t fallen for him and hadn’t pursued him relentlessly, he would have helped her find a suitable husband and let her live the rest of her life in peace.

Unfortunately…

She harbored feelings she shouldn’t have.

He could no longer tolerate her.

Even at this moment, Lu Zhi didn’t regret pushing Kexin away repeatedly.

“Who can control feelings?” When she forced herself to marry him, she never thought that she would have feelings for him one day. “But don’t be too sad. We get what we deserve. No matter what the outcome is, it’s all arranged by fate.”

Jiang Yining didn’t want him to blame himself.

Lu Zhi replied, “1 know, don’t worry, I won’t blame myself for this.”

“That’s good. Finish your work soon and get some rest. Staying up late is not good for your health,” Jiang Yining reminded.

“Yes.”

“If you need someone to accompany you, you can call me anytime.”

“Alright.”

As the two of them spoke, the faint sadness was washed away.

Chen Kexin’s funeral was kept simple.

Ever since Aunt Chen entered the Lu family, she had severed ties with her relatives and friends.

Because she felt that they were not worthy of her status.

Now that Chen Kexin was gone, her friends and family wouldn’t come to see her off.

As for the Lu family, no matter how much they valued her, they couldn’t change the fact that Chen Kexin was a servant.

Old Master Lu and Old Madam Lu were willing to attend Chen Kexin’s funeral.

But the others were reluctant.

They simply attended the event and didn’t even go to the cemetery.

So…

When Chen Kexin was buried, there were only a few people present.

During the funeral, Lu Zhi always left early and returned late.

For consecutive days, Jiang Yining hardly saw him.

When they met again, it was already the third night.

Lu Zhi stepped into the dining room with a cold and handsome expression. He picked up the utensils she had just used and started eating.

Jiang Yining looked sideways at the stubble on his chin.

“That’s my tableware.”

“We’re a couple. What’s wrong with sharing utensils?”

Lu Zhi looked up at her.

He even knew how to scold her. It seemed like he wasn’t particularly sad.

Jiang Yining said, “Nothing much. I’m just afraid that you’d find it repulsive.

Since you don’t mind, I don’t have anything to worry about. Do you want some extra dishes or finish the soup?”

“Yes.”

Lu Zhi nodded.

Jiang Yining got up and went to the kitchen to instruct the chef to add more food for him.

When Lu Zhi finished eating, Jiang Yining said, “You should go and rest.”

“Come with me.”

Lu Zhi dragged her arm and walked towards the bedroom on the second floor.

“I’m not sleepy.”

“Stay with me.”

Lu Zhi said in an unquestionable tone.

Jiang Yining, who was dragged onto the bed, was speechless.

She thought, “Sir, can you not hug me so tightly? I’m out of breath.”

Jiang Yining was silent for a moment before she struggled to break free from his embrace.

However, she heard Lu Zhi whisper tiredly, “Don’t mess around. Be good.”

His chin was slightly pressed against her head.

He loosened his grip a bit, allowing her to lie more comfortably..
