"Yes," Huo Mien answered honestly.
"Are you scared?" Qin Chu's voice suddenly became gentle, as if he was coaxing a child.
"Why would I be? I went to medical school, so I'm not interested in corpses anymore. It's just that when I think about my grandmother lying inside, I can't help but feel sad. "
"Birth, old age, sickness, and death are the laws of nature. None of us can change them. Don't take it too hard."
"I know."
After Huo Mien said this, he added, "Why are you still up so late?"
"I just came back from a business trip."
"So late?"
"Yeah."
"Then you must be tired. Rest early," Huo Mien said softly.
To her surprise, Qin Chu had no intention of resting at all. He replied, "Let's keep the call going. I'll stay with you."
Perhaps he was afraid that Huo Mien would reject him, so Qin Chu added, "I'll stay with you like this."
Huo Mien had no reason to reject Qin Chu's kindness. She knew what kind of person he was.
She didn't know if it was because she had stayed up all night, but her eyes felt slightly sore …
"Okay."
After a long silence, Huo Mien only replied with one word. Then, she put down her phone. The screen showed that the call was still going on.
It was just that the two of them didn't speak anymore …
This kind of company was undoubtedly the most special. Although it didn't really mean anything, Huo Mien felt that she was no longer alone on this sad night …
Huo Mien silently burned joss paper for her deceased grandmother. She didn't feel sleepy at all until the sun rose.
At half past five in the morning, the sun had just risen.
Huo Siqian walked over in a black shirt and black trousers. He was holding an old LV scarf in his hand.
Before Huo Mien could say anything, he directly put it on her …
"I don't need it."
"Just put it on. That belonged to your grandmother when she was alive, unless you don't like it."
Hearing Huo Siqian's words, Huo Mien felt a little embarrassed to refuse. Otherwise, it would seem as if he despised his grandmother's things.
Huo Siqian looked at Huo Mien from head to toe and smiled. "Little Sister Mien, the dress you're wearing must be expensive."
"You're mistaken. It's a high-quality imitation."
"Oh, really? As a nurse, I don't think your salary is that high. But then again, your job doesn't pay that much. Have you ever thought about coming back to the Huo Corporation to help me? "
"Sorry, I'm not interested in the Huo Corporation."
Huo Mien decisively refused …
Huo Siqian seemed to have expected Huo Mien to say this. He just smiled and said, "Oh, do you have a grudge against money?"
"No, I have a grudge against you."
Huo Siqian spread out his hands innocently. "Little Sister Mian, I've always been very friendly to you. You shouldn't treat me like this."
Huo Mien didn't say anything. Just then, a Yin Yang Master walked over and said, "It's time to wake up. Go and get ready. We'll be leaving the city at 7 PM for the burial."
Huo Mien slowly stood up after hearing this. However, she realized that her knees were too numb from kneeling. As soon as she stood up, she fell to the ground.
Huo Siqian subconsciously went to help her up, but she dodged and fell to the ground.
"Why are you doing this …? I can't eat you. "Huo Siqian was a little helpless.
Huo Mien didn't say anything. She slowly stood up with the help of an iron pole and walked towards the resting area.
Seeing how stubborn Huo Mien was, Huo Siqian's smile deepened …
Huo Mien found a quiet place to sit down. Suddenly, she remembered that her phone was still on.
She was probably still on the phone with Qin Chu. Then … he must have heard her conversation with Huo Siqian, right?
She took out her phone and saw that the call was still going on …
She didn't know if Qin Chu was asleep, so she carefully took the phone and asked, "Qin Chu, are you asleep?"
