Aunt Yao looked at Mu Chengxi. Her face was somewhat pale. Of course, she knew how dangerous this situation was. She just didn’t expect that person to pose a threat to herself. Without any hesitation, she nodded vigorously and then spoke in a calm manner.

“Mr. Mu, I came here to burn some Yao Yi for the old lady…”

“Please, go ahead.” Mu Chengxi politely gestured for Aunt Yao to proceed, and his expression returned to normal.

As Aunt Yao walked into the funeral parlor to burn paper offerings for Yang Jingyan, Mu Chengxi’s refined eyes narrowed slightly. He then turned to look at Liang Luoyu, giving him a meaningful glance without saying anything extra.

The winter night was cold and dark, giving people a feeling of endurance.

Outside, the sky was gradually brightening when Wen Xin came out of the room with Tan Xingyue.

Tan Xingyue had already accepted the reality of her grandmother’s passing and could control her emotions well. She quietly knelt on the cushion prepared by Mu Dong and burned paper offerings for her grandmother.

Wen Xin, wearing a down jacket, came out from inside and walked to Mu Chengxi’s side. She took the initiative to hold Mu Chengxi’s hand, feeling the warmth in his hand, which reassured her somewhat.

“If you don’t want to stay here, you can go back to the hotel and rest for a while.

Uncle and Aunt will come to take care of things later.”

Although Wen Xin grew up by Yang Jingyan’s side, she was ultimately an outsider. It was only natural for Yang Jingyan’s children to handle this matter.

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin, gently pinching her cheek and softly asking, “Are you tired?”

“I’m not tired. I just slept for a while inside. What about you?”

Wen Xin held Mu Chengxi’s hand in hers and led him to the hall outside the funeral parlor, asking him to sit down and rest for a while.

“I’m not tired either.”

Just as Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi had just sat down, a group of people hurriedly walked in from outside. Walking at the front was a man dressed in a Chinese tunic suit with round-framed glasses, obviously someone engaged in academic research.

Following behind the man was a delicate woman wearing a cashmere coat. The woman’s eyes were red and swollen. It was obvious that she had been crying for a long time.

“Wen Xin…”

Upon seeing Wen Xin, both the man and the woman couldn’t help but call out. When the woman saw Wen Xin, the tears that had stopped suddenly burst out again.

Upon hearing the voices, Wen Xin stood up and walked to the front of the group, speaking in a sorrowful tone, “Uncle, Aunt, Grandma has passed away.”

Mom kept saying that she was in good health and didn’t need us to worry. We didn’t expect… we really didn’t expect…”

Su Wanlin looked remorseful at this moment. He knew his mother’s health was not good, but he never expected her to pass away so suddenly…

Su Hang stood aside, sobbing and unable to say anything.

“Mom, your body won’t be able to handle it if you keep crying like this. Go and see Grandma!”

The man wearing a mask walked to Su Hang’s side, his voice gentle as he comforted Su Hang, but his gaze remained on Wen Xin.

“Yeah, let’s go pay our respects to Grandma first,” Wen Xin said, looking at the weeping crowd beside her. She didn’t know what to say, so she lowered her voice and suggested that the group go in first.

Wen Xin didn’t follow them in. Instead, she returned to Mu Chengxi’s side and sat beside him.

“All of Grandma’s relatives are here. If you’re tired, you can go back to rest for a while and come back after a nap,” Wen Xin suggested after some thought, realizing that it might be a bit unfair to Mu Chengxi to stay here.

Mu Chengxi’s phone vibrated in his pocket. It was a message from Ling Yicheng’s uncle. He didn’t open it but instead leaned down and lightly kissed Wen Xin’s cheek.

“I’ll go back to the hotel to rest then. If there’s anything, call me,” Mu Chengxi said, not refusing Wen Xin this time. He indeed had some matters to attend to.

Wen Xin escorted Mu Chengxi to the door, hailed a taxi for him, and watched him get in before turning back.

On her way back, as the sky was already brightening, Wen Xin saw a man wearing a baseball cap and a mask standing not far away. She walked up to him.

“Why did you come? Weren’t you shooting a movie recently?” Wen Xin asked, looking at the male celebrity in front of her with a gentle smile.

“I heard about Grandma’s passing, so I hurriedly asked for leave from the crew. My scenes in the movie are almost done. Knowing you’re busy with Grandma’s affairs, how could I bear to let you suffer alone? So I came over quickly, but it seems I’m a bit late,” Chu Mufeng replied with tender eyes as he looked at Wen Xin.

Wen Xin raised her head and met Chu Mufeng’s gaze. The affectionate look in his eyes made her unconsciously take a step back, creating some distance between them.

” You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. As a big star, saying such things could easily lead to rumors. You know, I don’t like trouble,” Wen Xin said, adjusting the collar of her down jacket and pulling the hat down over her head, emitting a cold and distant aura, appearing guarded.

Chu Mufeng sighed helplessly at Wen Xin’s demeanor. Her deliberate distance was too obvious, wasn’t it?

“That man, is he your boyfriend?” Chu Mufeng asked as they left. He had seen Wen Xin being held by that man when they left, though he had no right to say anything.

“Yes.”

Wen Xin walked ahead without looking back, simply responding in a plain tone, but this simple response shattered the last trace of hope in Chu Mufeng’s heart.

He stood there, unable to recover for a long time. He had known Wen Xin since childhood, so why did he still miss out on her in the end?

Unable to hear any footsteps behind her, Wen Xin didn’t pay attention to why the person behind her didn’t catch up. She only had simple sibling feelings towards him and didn’t want him to overthink things.

Seeing Wen Xin return, Chu Yunxuan quickly ran to Wen Xin’s side, grabbed her arm, and led her to a corner.

“Hey, hey, hey, was the man I just saw the popular male star, Chu Mufeng?”

Chu Yunxuan had just woken up and saw Chu Mufeng comforting Tan Xingyue, gently stroking Tan Xingyue’s head. She thought she might have been mistaken.

“Yeah, it’s him. He’s Tan Xingyue’s cousin, the son of Tan Xingyue’s aunt,” Wen Xin said with some disdain for Chu Yunxuan’s excitement at the moment. “Can’t you stay calm in such a situation?”

Catching her annoyed tone, Chu Yunxuan calmed down and reverted to her usual cold demeanor..
