Can we … postpone the burial by a few days? " Yun Liuli's tears fell onto the urn. She hugged the urn so tightly that her knuckles turned white. She was almost choking as she said, "I want to spend a few more days with him!"
Fu Huai 'an nodded. "Old Gu's funeral can only be held when someone arrives!"
…
Venice.
Jacob Bellucci had already packed up and was about to set off for the polar region to take photos. He had just come out of his apartment with his gear when someone came knocking on his door.
Just as they had planned, the person who came knocking … was Sheng Kang, who had escaped from Russia.
Sheng Kang chatted with Jacob Bellucci for a while, then went to the hotel.
That day, Jacob Bellucci didn't leave. He didn't return his plane ticket … as if he had forgotten that he was going out.
Three days later, Jacob Bellucci went to the hotel to look for Sheng Kang, preparing to return to China with him! To attend his brother's funeral.
Back in China, after confirming the date of Jacob Bellucci's return, preparations for the funeral began.
However, Fu Huai 'an and the rest still kept the matter of Gu Qingcheng's younger brother, Jacob Bellucci, a secret from Yun Liuli.
Firstly, Yun Liuli was too smart. The moment she heard it, she would probably guess Jacob Bellucci's identity. At a public event like the funeral, they would still need Yun Liuli to put on a sad expression.
Secondly, they wanted to give Yun Liuli a surprise.
The timing was so tight this time. Gu Qingcheng had just passed away, and they wanted Jacob Bellucci to attend the funeral openly. This was also to dispel other people's suspicions that Jacob Bellucci was Gu Qingcheng.
After all, Jacob Bellucci was Gu Qingcheng. However, everyone knew that Cen Mo's men had killed Gu Qingcheng …
Even if someone guessed that Gu Qingcheng had faked his death, they would feel that Gu Qingcheng was probably injured and would need to recuperate for a few months. However, Jacob Bellucci was brought over by Sheng Kang during Gu Qingcheng's funeral.
Even if Jacob Bellucci and Gu Qingcheng looked exactly the same, if others were to really suspect … they would have doubts in their hearts.
It was a risky move!
As long as others thought of Gu Qingcheng faking his death and wanted to link the faked Gu Qingcheng with Jacob Bellucci, they would think of these illogical points.
With these illogicalities, it would be difficult for Gu Qingcheng's identity to be discovered.
Trying to cover something up would only make it more conspicuous, and it would instead attract suspicion. Just like that … it would confuse those who were used to scheming and scheming.
Everything was prepared for the funeral. On the day of Gu Qingcheng's burial, the rain stopped. The weather was so gloomy that the sun couldn't be seen.
Yun Luli held Gu Qingcheng's urn and walked at the very front, climbing the stairs step by step …
Fu Huai 'an arranged for Gu Qingcheng to be at the highest spot, meaning that he wanted Gu Qingcheng to stand at the highest spot and be able to look at the scenery of his hometown at any time.
When Yun Liuli carried Gu Qingcheng's urn up the last step, she saw Sheng Kang!
Gu Qingcheng was standing next to a tall man. That figure seemed to have been engraved in Yun Liuli's heart. She could almost recognize that it was Gu Qingcheng at a glance!
Seeing Yun Liuli … Sheng Kang said something to the man and walked toward her.
Yun Liuli's heart was beating very fast, and she almost dropped the urn in her hands. If not for Little Lu's quick reflexes!
If not for Little Lu's quick reflexes, Gu Qingcheng's ashes would probably be scattered here today!
As Jacob Bellucci, Gu Qingcheng didn't have any expression on his face. He merely gazed calmly at Yun Liuli, his eyes devoid of emotion behind his black-rimmed glasses.
Seeing Yun Liuli widen her eyes and look in Gu Qingcheng's direction, Sheng Kang explained to her calmly, "That's our Sir's twin brother, Jacob Bellucci! As you know, Sir is an orphan and has been searching for his family all these years. About a month ago, I obtained a surveillance video and saw that his back view resembled our Sir's, so I started to investigate in detail. I didn't expect that just as I found Sir's younger brother, Sir … "
Sheng Kang's voice was choking up.
"I was also very surprised when I saw Mr. Jacob Bellucci. He looks almost exactly like our Sir!"
Yun Liuli already understood what was going on, but she really didn't expect Gu Qingcheng to be so daring!
He actually came back just like that!
Yun Liuli's eyes reddened. She really wanted to rush up and ask Gu Qingcheng if he was injured. How was he injured? Was it serious or not?
But she couldn't …
She gritted her teeth and couldn't hold back her tears as she gazed at Gu Qingcheng's line of defense.
The gloomy and rainy day seemed to add a layer of gloom to Gu Qingcheng's surroundings.
Bai Jinyu was also shocked to see Jacob Bellucci. He took two steps forward and widened his eyes …
At that moment, Jacob Bellucci was wearing a black hoodie and jeans that had been washed so many times that they had turned white. He wore black-rimmed glasses and stood there with both hands in his pockets.
Bai Jinyu turned back to look at Fu Huai 'an.
On the way to the cemetery, Bai Jinyu had already heard from Fu Huai 'an that Gu Qingcheng's younger brother had been found!
It was just that Bai Jinyu hadn't expected Gu Qingcheng's younger brother to look so much like Gu Qingcheng!
Other than the fact that his gloomy aura was different from Gu Qingcheng's mature and reserved aura, if one were to look at the photo … Bai Jinyu would surely mistake him for someone else!
Bai Jinyu turned back to look at Fu Huai 'an, who nodded slightly.
When Bai Jinyu turned back, his eyes were already red and wet, and his Adam's apple vibrated.
Xu Wanwan went up and grabbed Bai Jinyu's large hand, wanting to comfort him.
"Miss Yun …" Little Lu called out to Yun Liuli in a low voice.
Originally, Yun Liuli had wanted to hold back her tears, but she couldn't. She lowered her head, and her tears splashed onto the urn.
She kept her head lowered as she walked forward, but she stopped in front of Gu Qingcheng and looked at him.
Gu Qingcheng's gaze was still indifferent. He looked at Yun Liuli as if he was looking at a stranger …
She wanted to ask him if he was alright! She wanted to tell him that she missed him! She also wanted to ask him why he had to be so bold and take such a risk!
Wouldn't it be better to hide outside for a few years and wait for people to forget about him? Why did he jump out at this juncture!
What if someone recognized him?!
Could it be … because he missed her too?
The more Yun Liuli thought about it, the more upset she felt. Her feet didn't listen to her, and she stood in front of Gu Qingcheng without moving.
"This is the daughter of Sir's friend. Because her parents died early, she has been living with Sir!" Sheng Kang said to Jacob Bellucci.
Jacob Bellucci nodded at Yun Liuli and didn't say anything …
Jacob Bellucci had a cold personality and wouldn't speak much throughout the year. He had an antisocial personality, so Gu Qingcheng dealt with his encounter with Yun Liuli based on Jacob Bellucci's behavior.
No matter how much turmoil he felt in his heart, Gu Qingcheng maintained his calm, wary, and gloomy demeanor.
