“I heard that in Huaxia, after a person dies, they have to eat and receive gifts. These friends of yours are probably quite rich. After you die, you can collect tens of millions.”
“Sigh, sigh, sigh. No matter what, you’re still my father’s subordinate. If this were in ancient times, 1 would be considered your young master. Can you be more respectful to me? Do 1 lack tens of millions?”
“No matter how small a mosquito’s leg is, it’s still meat,” Song Jinmin said with a cigarette in his mouth. “I’ll bring you a pork knuckle when we have the banquet later.”
“Forget the banquet for now, let’s handle the important stuff first.”
“Alright.”
Song Jinmin drove according to Lin Yi’s instructions, heading towards Water Wrapped Hot Springs.
At the crematorium, after collecting the ashes, Zhao Quanfeng carried them out.
With that, all of Lin Yi’s funeral arrangements were completed.
They did not bother with the banquet and gifts.
Because those attending the memorial were so wealthy, the usual customs were skipped.
However, according to Zhao Quanfeng and Wang Cuiping, given the number of people who came, they had to prepare at least a few tables of food.
After all, it was already noon, and people still needed to eat.
But those who came to pay their respects declined the invitation.
No one had the heart to eat now.
Because of this, the elderly couple didn’t insist further. They didn’t have the energy to manage such things anyway.
As everyone left, the family stood at the main entrance, thanking each guest individually. Although it was simple, all the necessary courtesies were observed.
After leaving the crematorium, Ji Qingyan and the others returned to the hotel.
Ever since she left the crematorium, she had been hugging ‘Lin Yi’s ashes’, unwilling to let go.
Zhao Quanfu and Wang Cuiping wanted to place the ashes in Zhonghai.
In the end, Ji Qingyan rejected her.
Lin Yi’s hometown was in Yangcheng, so it was better to return to his roots.
With the Central Guards Brigade’s status in the military, Lin Yi and Zhou Liang could be placed in the Martyrs’ Cemetery.
After staying in the hotel for a while, everyone calmed down a little and prepared to return to Yangcheng.
At the same time, Lin Yi and Song Jinmin had already finished bathing and were waiting for the technician’s service in the private room.
“May I ask how much President Lin’s departure has affected Zhonghai’s bathing business?”
“F*ck, these people are so bored that they ruined my good reputation.”
“The prosperity of Zhonghai’s bathing industry is inseparable from your support,” Song Jinmin said.
“I was wondering why I found you pleasing to the eye from the first time 1 saw you. I didn’t expect us to be kindred spirits.”
“Likewise.”
In the Wang family villa, Wang Tingshan and Chen Chufeng were sitting opposite each other and drinking tea. The former looked at his watch and said,
“At this point, the memorial service is probably over.”
“Well, this doesn’t have much to do with us anymore. Once Lin Yi dies, this matter will be over.” Chen Chufeng said.
“But over the next few years, the Wang family will still have to hide their strength and bide their time. As long as Lu Beichen is still alive, we can’t make any big moves.”
Wang Tingshan nodded. “It’s all thanks to Lin Yi that the Wang family is where they are today. I just regret not killing him earlier.”
“Fate has its own timing. What is meant to be will happen, and what isn’t meant to be shouldn’t be forced. It may seem late, but it’s all part of destiny. We should accept it with a calm heart.”
“It would have been better to kill him face to face. Doing it this way doesn’t feel satisfying,” Wang Mian said.
“Great achievers don’t sweat the small stuff. As long as the outcome is correct, that’s all that matters.”
“Understood, Elder Chen.”
Creak...
As the three talked, the sound of brakes came from outside. Li Mi hurried in, his steps brisk.
“Master, there’s a problem at the memorial. Lin Jingzhan has returned.”
“What did you say? Lin Jingzhan has returned?”
Wang Tingshan shot up from his chair, his face dark with anger.
Chen Chufeng, on the other hand, although not as visibly agitated as Wang Tingshan, reacted with a grim expression. The name Lin Jingzhan was like a forbidden taboo!
If Lin Jingzhan hadn’t left back then, Yanjing might not be in its current state. “Lin Yi is really his son?”
Li Mi nodded.
“Qin Family, Zhao Family, Gu Family, Lu Family, and Sun Family went there to make a scene after learning of Lin Yi’s death. However, Lin Jingzhan appeared and suppressed the five families so much that they didn’t dare to raise their heads. Not only did he make them bow on the spot, but he also made Qin Yinglong kneel on the ground.”
When he spoke, Li Mi was very calm because he was young and did not know what had happened back then.
However, Wang Tingshan and Chen Chufeng were different.
Even though more than 20 years had passed, that period of dominance still could not be erased from their hearts..
