Obituary:

On xx/xx/xx, Mr. Zhou Hongzhou, Chairman of Zhou Group and well-known entrepreneur, passed away at Kyoto Hospital at the age of 75. His funeral will be held at...

…………

Old man Zhou tossed and turned all night, and Zhou Bu didn't sleep a wink.

It was not until dawn that Zhou Bu fed Old Man Zhou something to eat again.

After Old Man Zhou closed his eyes and fell asleep, he never opened them again.

The grandparents held hands until the alarm sounded.

One night is enough time for the grandparents and grandchildren to say goodbye properly.

But when the thing came true, Zhou Bu still couldn't help it. Without letting go of the holding hand, Zhou Bu stood up, bent over and leaned on his grandfather's abdomen, choking with sobs.

Gradually, a water stain appeared on the quilt.

This was the first time he faced the death of a loved one.

Reason told him that birth, aging, sickness and death were the laws of nature. He seemed to have convinced himself, but in reality, the death of his loved ones still felt like a thorn in his throat and he didn't know who to tell.

Everyone outside the door had red eyes.

Until the professionals from the funeral home arrived.

Zhou Bu refused their service, but under their guidance, he cleaned his grandfather himself and changed his clothes.

The mourning hall was set up in the old house.

The funeral was a lively one, with a constant stream of political and business celebrities coming and going.

The eldest son of the Zhou family has lost his former agility.

He was wearing a pure black suit and had a pale face. He stayed in front of the coffin, lighting incense and candles for his grandfather.

Still standing there.

The rest of the things were taken care of by my younger brothers.

Last night, Old Man Zhou thought of something and said to Zhou Bu, "Don't take your parents' affairs too seriously. It won't do you any good if you break up with them."

He said: "I have long said that I would train your brothers, but you care about them. Now you are busy as a dog, and you have to arrange time in advance to visit me."

He said, "My little PI! I can't accompany you anymore. I always know that you are the most filial one in our family. They all think that old lady is annoying and don't come to see me. Only you are so stubborn that you pinch your nose to come and see me."

"Little Pi! Don't be sad. Everyone will die, and you will die sooner or later. Grandpa will be waiting for you then. You have to be well, be well!"

According to the rules, the body was kept for three days, after which the eldest grandson carried the coffin to the crematorium for cremation.

Zhou Bu didn't like people lying coldly in the ground, as he thought their souls would be free after cremation.

He personally supervised the cremation process.

Take the urn from the staff.

Zhou Bu, who had been fine for three days, suddenly collapsed while holding the box!

His grandpa...turned into a little box...

The crystal liquid dripped down. Some people even collapsed silently.

Zhou Wei was worried that the water might drip onto the box, so he held the box with his arm.

He has been raised by his grandparents since the day he was born.

Because of him, when Chengnan and Chengbei were born, neither of the two old people went to the hospital.

He still remembered that day when Old Man Zhou repeatedly told him not to be afraid and that as long as he was alive, no one could bully him.

He started going to kindergarten at the age of three. His grandfather sent him to kindergarten on the first day. When he saw that other children were sent to kindergarten by their parents, his grandfather smiled and coaxed him, telling him not to envy others and that his grandfather loved him more than his parents.

His grandparents tried their best to raise him, for they were afraid that he would be useless and unable to carry on the family business, and might have to beg for food from his younger brother and stepmother in the future.

……

Zhou Bu died young in so many lives, and lived in pain in every one of them, with others sending him away every time.

He thought this was a relief for everyone.

It turns out... the living are more miserable than the dead.

Zhou Bu followed the entire ceremony and did everything he could personally, until a new tombstone was added to the Tianshou Cemetery.

His condition is really bad. He has had very little time to rest over the past few days.

Even the two children didn't come near him these days.

Everyone was afraid of being sucked away by his overflowing sadness and becoming sad as well.

I simply didn't want to get close to him at this time, as it would become dangerous.

Only Ji Xingyao, who was standing behind the two children, said: "Grandma is waiting for you!"

Zhou Bucai finally responded. He put down the flower in his hand, which was a lily, and said to the tombstone: "I will do it, Grandpa."

No one spoke along the way. Ji Xingyao had taught the two children in advance that Daddy was very sad and told them to be good.

Both children are very obedient.

When he got home, his grandmother was sitting in the hall, waiting for him.

Zhou Buhuan walked forward slowly, knelt on one knee in front of his grandmother, and looked up at the old lady.

The old lady touched her grandson's face with a smile, and naturally saw his tiredness from the journey and the sadness in his eyes.

But he said nothing, only smiled and asked: "Did you send your grandfather away safely?"

Zhou Bu said nothing, but looked at the old lady seriously and nodded.

The old lady smiled and said, "That's good. Don't be sad. He should have died a long time ago! I have been looking forward to his death since the day of our divorce. When a person dies, all debts are forgiven. I will not bother with him anymore about what he owes me."

The old lady said this deliberately, and Zhou Qi's expression finally softened, with a little spirit in his eyes.

Zhou Qi said to his grandmother: "When he was dying, he begged me to wait until you died so that he could secretly bury you together, but I didn't agree."

When the old lady heard this, her eyebrows stood up. "This old idiot, he's dreaming. I'm unlucky enough to have met him in this life, and we're going to be buried together? Are you going to disgust me even after I die?"

He reached out and touched Zhou Qi's face again, "My grandson is still the best. He is worthy of being the child I raised."

Looking at his lively grandma, Zhou Wei's heart seemed to warm up again.

Zhou Bu smiled and whispered to his grandmother, "But I promised to bury you closer to him."

Seeing the change in her grandson's expression, Old Mrs. Jiang understood that it was worth it for her to perform such a show at such an old age.

Old Mrs. Jiang looked at Zhou Wei and said slowly, "Okay, don't be sad. Everyone has this day. Not only your grandfather, your grandparents, but also me now, we earn one day at a time. Xiao Pi, you will have to accept it sooner or later."

Zhou Bu uttered an "hmm", and the slight sense of relief he had just felt disappeared again.

"Okay, go back and rest! There are still things waiting for you to do!"

Zhou Bu listened to his grandmother and went back to his room.

Ji Xingyao was waiting for him with the children.

Zhou Qi's mouth was slightly relaxed, he touched his children's faces, and said to Ji Xingyao: "You have worked hard these days, I will sleep for a while, I have something to deal with later."

Ji Xingyao nodded in agreement and took the children out.

I haven't taken care of them these days.

It was rare for the children to have their father be so "unenthusiastic" towards them, and they all looked up at Ji Xingyao.

Ji Xingyao still remembers how he felt when he saw his grandfather off.

Ji Xingyao said to them: "Your father is so sad, his heart is about to break, so let's give him some time! Let him rest! Although he is very powerful, he is also a human being! He is not a superman."

"When daddy wakes up from his nap, you two can go hug him!"

The children nodded obediently.
