Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

In the end, it was unknown whether Mu Qiqi conceded defeat or not. However, when the two of them came out of the bathroom, Mu Qiqi’s ears were still red.

Sheng Xiao was hugging her with a satisfied look on his face.

When they returned to the bed, Mu Qiqi immediately curled up in the quilt with her back facing the stinky man. She felt embarrassed.

Sheng Xiao stared at her back and could not help but ask, “You’re regretting it now?”

“I think it’s a little… piercing to the ears!” Mu Qiqi’s face flushed red when she thought of the scene.

“I like it.”

With that said, Sheng Xiao spooned her and slept soundly.

The next day, the two of them picked up Old Master Shen and the three of them went to Luo Hai to attend the funeral. Elder Liu’s mourning hall was set up in his old house and the people who came to pay their respects were mostly comrades. They did not inform his family.

Shen Jianchuan had warned Elder Liu’s three sons and did not allow them to make their appearance in Elder Liu’s mourning hall. As for his ex-wife, who was injured by the explosion yet appeared to not have learned a lesson, was fighting in the hospital to come out and file a lawsuit against Shen Jianchuan. That old man had left so much inheritance. How could he just donate it just like that?

Shen Jianchuan completely ignored her. The old man was already gone, and she still wanted to suck his blood. Just how cold-hearted was she?

There weren’t many of his comrades left from that generation anymore, and there were even fewer people who could still come and participate in the mourning.

Shen Jianchuan knew that the three unfilial sons were nearby, but he wasn’t in the mood nor could he be bothered to deal with the beasts of the Liu family right now.

When it was close to noon, Mu Qiqi and the other two arrived at the mourning hall. When Old Master Shen saw the portrait of Elder Liu, his emotions ran so high that his hands trembled.

Mu Qiqi supported him, afraid that he would not be able to control himself.

Shen Jianchuan quickly supported his father and said to him, “The cremation will take place tomorrow morning.”

Old Master Shen grabbed his son’s wrist and nodded. “You’ve worked hard.”

“Xiao Qi, take care of your grandfather.” Shen Jianchuan handed Old Master Shen back to Mu Qiqi. “You and Eighth Brother are really thoughtful.”

“Dad, what are you talking about?” Mu Qiqi did not like him being so polite. “I feel very regretful that Grandfather Liu has left too. In the future, when that old man from the Song family leaves, I will lead the entire army to sit in his mourning hall and beat drums and gongs. It will be lively for the entire day.”

“Silly girl.” How many days had it been since Shen Jianchuan had laughed? He could not stand his own daughter’s teasing.

“It will be fine once you laugh. Dad, you should pay attention to your rest.”

After paying his respects to the old man, Mu Qiqi supported Old Man Shen to rest outside the mourning hall. Sheng Xiao lit an incense stick for the old man and stood beside Shen Jianchuan.

“Eighth Brother, you don’t have to.”

“Since I’m the son-in-law of the Shen family, there’s nothing wrong with it.” Sheng Xiao’s words made Shen Jianchuan speechless. In the eyes of the people of Jianchuan, Sheng Xiao had always been a god who stood high and mighty.

But for the sake of his Xiao Qi, he was just an ordinary husband, a man who was responsible for his family.

“I hope you can understand the feelings of the Shen family.”

At the thought of this, Sheng Xiao smiled faintly because he thought of the little thing’s meddlesome personality. This seemed to be the strength of her genes.

And because Sheng Xiao was present, the people outside the door who saw them became even more fearful of entering the mourning hall.

Old Master Shen sat on the steps outside the mourning hall and calmed himself down. Seeing that his son, grandson, and son-in-law were all so sensible, he couldn’t help sighing. “I lent the two of them to Elder Liu. It’ll be like he has a son sending him off.”

“Grandfather, Grandfather Liu will definitely feel grateful when he knows in the afterlife.” Actually, Mu Qiqi didn’t expect Sheng Xiao to take the initiative to do such a thing. From afar, this Sheng Xiao looked even more warm than the invincible deity that he usually was. He had a sense of responsibility.

In the past, Sheng Xiao never cared about family. He did as he liked during all the important tasks of the family. However, now that he was going to be a father, he seemed to be more willing to integrate into the whole big family and take on his own responsibilities.

“Eighth Brother is really a mature man now.” Old Master Shen was extremely grateful after he finished reading.

Mu Qiqi nodded and was about to help her grandfather stand up. However, Elder Liu’s ex-wife suddenly made an appearance, bringing along a dozen people as she walked toward the mourning hall aggressively.

Shen Jianchuan saw them from afar and immediately said to Sheng Xiao, “Protect Xiao Qi.”

Sheng Xiao quickly went to Mu Qiqi’s side and protected the old and young behind him. Xu Che was outside the door.

“It just so happens that all the members of the Shen family are here. I can’t be bothered to go to Jianchuan to look for you. I don’t want to cause any trouble today, but I want the members of the Shen family to give me justice. My husband is dead. Who should get his inheritance?

“If you don’t give me an explanation today, no one will be able to leave this place.”

Old Master Liu’s ex-wife was nearing seventy years of age and she was extremely out of shape. She was an old lady now, but she still liked to fight and snatch. In this lifetime, she had never let her husband off anything.

“I have already donated all of Uncle Liu’s money according to his wishes. There are legal and impartial documents. Uncle Liu had signed it. If you still have any doubts, you can sue. But this is Uncle Liu’s funeral hall. If there’s a tiny bit of conscience in you, you’d let him leave peacefully.” Shen Jianchuan stepped forward, standing right in front of the old lady.

The old lady gave a cold laugh, her eyes filled with hatred. “I have been with him my entire life and I have given birth to three sons for him. But in the end, I did not get anything and yet I’m to let him leave in peace? Who would pity me?”

“He has already left. No matter how much hatred there is, it should let go.” Shen Jianchuan frowned.

“Let go? You make it sound so simple.” The old lady scoffed. “What’s so great about dying? The most painful thing for a person is to wish they were dead. He died cleanly and burned himself to the ground, leaving nothing behind. But what about me?”

“The three unfilial sons outside the door are screaming for money every day. Who is going to take care of them?

“I do hate him. I hate him the most in my life, but I really didn’t expect him to leave just like that…” The old lady suddenly held her chest and cried out loud. “We have been enemies for a lifetime. Even after death, you still want to torture me. Take me away, you damn old man.”

Mu Qiqi could finally hear how complicated the old lady’s feelings for Elder Liu were.

There was extreme hatred and love.

“Without an enemy like you, how can I live on?” The old lady squatted on the ground and cried bitterly. “Get up and fight with me again. We haven’t settled scores from this life. What right do you have to bring it to the next life?”

“Damn old man…”
