The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage

Chapter 435 - An Imaginary Figure



Chapter 435: An Imaginary Figure

The heavy rain poured to its heart’s content. It was clearly the middle of summer, but Su Wan felt her body getting colder and colder.

Most of her relatives and friends left one after another after paying their respects, leaving only a few people at the graveyard who wanted to stay a little longer.

Su Wan tilted her head and saw that Xie Changfeng’s face was already covered in raindrops. He held onto the tombstone, and half of his shoulder was wet from the rain.

Su Wan had always thought that her grandfather was an indomitable man, but at this moment, looking at his old body, it looked like a piece of withered wood that was on the verge of collapsing in the wind.

The pain of losing his wife was indescribable.

After personally burying Lin Xuan today, he would return to A City, and any chance to see him in the future would become hard to come by.

Xie Changfeng felt as if someone had poured a basin of ice water on his heart. His heart ached and his entire body became numb from the cold.

Jiang Xuecheng quietly held the big black umbrella. He looked at Xie Changfeng’s pale face. He opened his mouth and proposed to Xie Changfeng.

“Grandfather, the rain won’t stop for a while. You’ve been standing there for a few hours already. Why don’t you go back first?”

Xie Changfeng’s eyelashes that were wet from the rain trembled slightly when he heard this. He reached out his hand and caressed Lin Xuan’s cold tombstone lovingly. His hoarse voice was close to mumbling.

“I can still hold on. I still want to accompany her.”

Xie Changfeng’s voice was not loud, but it carried a kind of stubbornness and persistence.

Hearing this, Su Wan sighed in her heart. It was fine for her and Jiang Xuecheng because they were young, but her grandfather was old. It was easy for him to get rheumatism after being drenched in the rain for too long.

However, Xie Changfeng remained stubborn. They could not force him to go back.

Su Wan’s reddened eyes focused on Xie Changfeng. When she saw Xie Changfeng holding the tombstone in a daze, her heart couldn’t help but ache.

Forget it. After today, the chance for grandfather and grandmother to meet would be even less.

Let grandfather be stubborn for once…

The sky was getting darker and darker, but the dark clouds in the sky still hadn’t dispersed. It was only four o’clock in the afternoon, but it seemed like it was seven or eight o’clock in the evening.

After standing for too long and being drenched by too much rain, Xie Changfeng’s vision suddenly turned dark. The old figure looked like it was about to fall backward.

“Grandfather!”

“Grandfather!”

Two anxious voices sounded one after another. Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng reached out their hands at the same time to support Xie Changfeng’s tottering body.

“Wan, I…”

Xie Changfeng blinked with difficulty. His gaze fuzzily shifted to Su Wan’s thin face.

Just as Xie Changfeng wanted to say something to Su Wan, he felt his eyelids become heavier and heavier. He felt extremely dizzy.

Finally, he could not resist the fatigue in his body and finally lost consciousness completely.

Su Wan knew that Xie Changfeng must have been too exhausted that he fainted.

He had only been in S City for two days. Why did such a drastic change happen in these two days?

Su Wan held onto Xie Changfeng nervously and worriedly. When she saw the old man’s tightly shut eyes and pale weak face, she could not help but feel a strong sense of bitterness in her heart.

God was unfair. Why did he have to take grandmother’s life?

Grandfather and grandmother were so loving. To grandfather, grandmother’s life was his life!

Xie Changfeng and Lin Xuan were childhood sweethearts. They had known each other since they were young, and their feelings were not comparable to others. In addition, they had taken care of each other over the past few decades. They had long been inseparable from each other.

Su Wan was really worried about what kind of mental state Xie Changfeng would be in when he returned to A City alone.

When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s distressed look, his heart also ached. He restrained his expression and turned around to call Ah Si who was not far away.

“Ah Si, send grandfather back to Fontainebleau first. He has caught a cold. Ask Aunty Fang to boil some ginger soup for him to drink.”

“Yes, young master.”

Ah Si, who was also dressed in plain clothes, walked forward and put his arm around Xie Changfeng’s shoulders. He nodded at Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng again.

“Young master, young madam, the two of you should go back as well. Having the intentions is good enough. Take care of yourselves.”

Standing in such a heavy rain for an entire afternoon, even a young man would lose weight. It would not be good if Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng fell ill again.

Su Wan knew that Ah Si was being kind. She slightly curved the corners of her lips and forced a smile.

“Okay, I’ll have to trouble you to send grandfather back. Be careful on the road.”

Ah Si smiled honestly. Then, he quickly carried Xie Changfeng, who had already fainted, and walked towards the car outside the Beiling cemetery.

After Ah Si drove away in the Phaeton, the parking space outside the Beiling cemetery became even more empty. Only a black Koenigsegg Agera R was left parked there.

The rain gradually became less heavy and turned into a drizzle, but it still showed no signs of stopping.

Not long after Ah Si drove away, a silver-white Porsche quickly drove in and parked steadily beside the Koenigsegg Agera R.

The car door quickly opened, revealing an elegant and noble figure. The other party wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and held a large bouquet of beautiful lilies.

The drizzling rain fell on the lilies and gradually gathered into clear drops of water, as if someone had shed a tear.

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng stood in front of the tombstone, since the pouring rain until the drizzling rain.

Jiang Xuecheng knew that Su Wan did not want to leave, so he kept her company.

However, seeing that the curtain of the night was about to make its entrance, Jiang Xuecheng could not help but remind her, “Wan Wan, let’s go back?”

Su Wan was startled when she heard that, but she eventually nodded.

She slowly squatted down, took off the white flower pinned in front of her, and carefully placed it in front of Lin Xuan’s photo.

Seeing Lin Xuan’s loving smile in the photo, Su Wan felt a dull pain in her heart.

The rain slowly flowed down from the black and white photo.

Su Wan could not help but reach out her hand and use her finger to wipe the mist on the photo.

Su Wan stared at the photo without blinking. Her expression was sad and lonely. She murmured softly, and her voice sounded a little dazed.

“Grandmother, I’m leaving with Xuecheng. You must be happy up there.”

When Xuecheng saw tears in Su Wan’s eyes tear up again, he could not help but say something.

“Wan Wan, you said that you want grandmother to be happy. If you’re not happy, how would she be happy?”

Lately, Su Wan had cried too many times. Even Jiang Xuecheng had to believe that ‘crybabies’ really existed.

Su Wan understood what Jiang Xuecheng meant. She stood up, smiled at Jiang Xuecheng, and wiped her tears.

“Alright, I promise you and grandmother that I will be happy.”

Grandmother must not want to see her cry every day in heaven, right?

Jiang Xuecheng reached out to stroke Su Wan’s hair on her forehead and smiled gently.

“That’s more like it.”

The two of them turned around and were about to go back along the stairs when they suddenly saw a tall figure walking toward them not far away.

The dusk was groggy, and that figure seemed imaginary in the misty rain…
