Chapter 2489’s pale reply
Cheng Chen retracted his gaze and bowed three times towards the mourning hall. In the end, Yu Qingzi brought Yu Luoluo and her cousins to return the bow to Cheng Chen.
Throughout the entire process, Yu Luoluo lowered her head. She did not dare and did not want to raise her head. She was afraid that the moment she raised her head, she would see that man looking at her. If that happened, she would have nowhere to hide.
After Cheng Chen bowed, he didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he walked into the mourning hall and offered incense to Yu Chenshi.
Seeing Cheng Chen’s action, Yu Qingzi and the cousins of the Yu family were a little surprised.
For someone like Cheng Chen who wasn’t related to the Yu family, a bow was enough. There was no need to offer incense.
However, Cheng Chen felt that he needed to offer the incense. In his heart, he owed Yu Chenshi. If it were not for him, Yu Luoluo would not have gotten involved in that dispute. She would not have missed the last chance to see Yu Chenshi, causing both Yu Chenshi and Yu Luoluo to feel regret.
Cheng Chen knew that his sin could not be offset with just one incense stick. It would only make him feel slightly better.
Although Yu Luoluo had her head lowered, she could still see Cheng Chen’s action of offering incense. She had wanted to stop him, but she held back.
Cheng Chen finished offering the incense and bowed three more times to Yu Chenshi’s portrait. This was the end of the ceremony.
He walked towards Yu Qingzi and said softly to her, “I’m sorry for your loss.”
Yu Qingzi nodded. “The old lady has been sick for so long, I was already mentally prepared. This is good too. The old lady is finally free, and so am I.”
Yu Qingzi was telling the truth. When Yu Chenshi was seriously ill, it was Yu Qingzi who personally took care of her. She was worried about the nurses, and she felt that she could not do her best for any of them. This was also the last thing she could do to Yu Chenshi. When she was hospitalized after her car accident, Yu Chenshi had been taking care of her.
Yu Luoluo stood beside Yu Qingzi. Cheng Chen was so close to her that she could clearly smell the faint scent of men’s perfume and tobacco on the man’s body. This kind of mixed scent was surprisingly pleasant to smell. Coupled with Cheng Chen’s handsome face and sexy voice, it was a fatal attraction to women.
She was once unable to extricate herself from it and even went crazy over it.
But now, all of this was like an addictive drug to Yu Luoluo. She had to get rid of it. Even though the detoxification process was very painful, if she didn’t get rid of it, she would be doomed.
“Thank you for coming. Tianya has already helped me a lot. I’m really useless. I only know how to cry. Fortunately, I still have Tianya by my side to help me.” Yu Qingzi looked at Yu Luoluo and said, “I can’t count on this daughter of mine. She only knows how to work and film in one day.”
Although Yu Qingzi’s words were unintentional, it was like a sharp knife in Cheng Chen’s ears.
“I’m sorry. From now on, I will ask the company to make more reasonable arrangements for Luo Luo’s work,”Cheng Chen could only reply in such a pale tone.
Yu Luoluo’s lips curled into a sneer. Cheng Chen knew that she was mocking him.
Yu Qingzi’s cousin’s eyes lit up as she looked at Cheng Chen. It was rare to meet a big shot in the entertainment industry, so she immediately interjected, “Mr. Cheng, my daughter is about the same age as Luo Luo, and her looks aren’t bad either. I wonder if she has the chance to enter the entertainment industry?”
