Wu Chenjin was used to such an attitude. He looked coldly at the person in front of him and said indifferently, “I’ve decided to get engaged to song Nuanyi in mid-October.”

Wu Chaotian, who had been sitting lazily on the sofa, froze when he heard this. Then, he slowly sat up straight.

Grandmother held Wu Chenjin’s hand after hearing this and kept asking him when she would bring him home to meet her.

“I don’t agree to this!” Old Master Wu’s voice shocked everyone. Even Grandmother was shocked, and her smile froze on her face.

He repeated, “I don’t agree with that woman marrying into the Wu Family!”

Wu Chenjin had expected this outcome. His face did not show any emotion, and he did not care at all. “I’m not asking for your opinion, I’m informing you.”

Old Master Wu was so angry that he was trembling, and even the flesh on his face was twitching, he said angrily, “What right does she have to enter the Wu Family? She’s just a vase that uses seductive methods to deceive men. If it weren’t for the 18 projects that she swindled away from my Wu Family, does she deserve to have a foothold in the Capital?!”

Wu Chenjin immediately retorted. He did not allow anyone to say anything bad about Song Nuanyi. He sneered and said, “She doesn’t have the right. Does the person beside you have the right?”

Old Master Wu was about to say something when Wu Chenjin continued to speak. He did not give Old Master Wu any chance to interrupt. He said, “Song Nuanyi stands in the Capital’s business circle with her own strength. Even if she doesn’t have those 35% projects, she can develop the Capital’s market with Smith and other projects. Moreover…”

He paused for a moment, he looked at Wu Chaotian with a hint of sarcasm and said, “You said that in the business world, there is no shortage of deceit. If Song Nuanyi has the ability to snatch these projects, it can only mean that the person being snatched is too stupid. It can also mean that Song Nuanyi is a genius in business.”

Wu Chaotian’s face was dark and he did not say a word. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly as if someone had poured dirty water on him. He choked and found it hard to swallow.

Old Master Wu was so angry that he could not speak. He stood up shakily and pointed at Wu Chenjin. He gritted his teeth and said slowly, “I… don’t… agree!”

Wu Chenjin replied with an ‘oh’ coldly and stood up as well. He tidied up his clothes and helped Grandmother up. It was as if he did not care at all and did not even hear Old Master Wu’s objection.

“By the way, Zifei’s funeral has been arranged. It will officially start the day after tomorrow. Everyone must be present. I don’t care what you are thinking, but you must go to the funeral. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

After saying that, he put away his coldness from before and said to Grandmother in a gentle tone, “Grandmother, I’ve finished talking about my matter. Let me help you back to rest.”

Grandmother, who was also angry, immediately calmed down when she heard Wu Chenjin’s words. She gently patted her hand and said with a smile, “Okay, okay, okay. Go back and rest.”

Before going up the stairs, Grandmother turned around and said to the furious Old Master Wu, the black-faced Wu Chaotian, and the stunned Han Yao, “Go back to rest. If you don’t go to work, my good grandson still has to go to work!”

The three of them were silent. They watched Wu Chenjin and Grandmother leave with their six eyes.

Two days later, Wu Zifei’s funeral officially began. Everyone from the Wu Family was present.

The sun on that day was very dim. The dark clouds were moving in the sky. Everyone was dressed in black, and they came in with heavy expressions.

There were many tombstones in the empty and neat cemetery. Wu Zifei’s tombstone was the only one surrounded by wildflowers. Originally, Wu Chenjin had chosen this place for himself. Later, the heartless Wu Zifei found out about it, she insisted that this place was beautiful and wanted him to buy it for her.

How could he buy a cemetery for his younger sister when she was still in her prime? He never expected that the joke from before would turn out to be irreversible.

Song Nuanyi stood in the distance, holding a black umbrella as she looked at the lonely man. She only approached him after a long time.

She placed fresh flowers in front of the tombstone, bowed deeply, and stared at the photo on the tombstone. The beautiful memories of the past flashed past like a movie, deepening her grief.

She swore in her heart that she would make everyone involved in Wu Zifei’s death pay the price, no matter who the other party was.

Wu Chenjin saw her shoulders trembling slightly. He reached out and straightened her body. Their sad eyes looked at each other and then hugged each other tightly.

Song Nuanyi’s phone vibrated in her clothes. It was a message from Assistant Chen. She did not look at it. She just quietly hugged Wu Chenjin, hoping to give him more strength.

Assistant Chen’s message read: Director Song, someone else killed Miss Wu! The person in the surveillance camera was not a woman disguised as a man. It was indeed a man.
