Chapter 623
Chapter 623
After attending the business meeting, Lu Chen returned home.During that time, Lu Chen was always thinking about that very gentle person named Oona, but in the following period of time, Lu Chen never had such a miraculous encounter again.
Time is a very magical thing, it can always wash away the things that people talk about and want to remember.On the 14th day after Wen Shang disappeared, people had almost forgotten about Wen Shang, and Lu Chen also felt that Wen Shang was indeed about to fade from his life, but Tan Wudao gave Lu Chen made a phone call.
Lu Chen received this call in his office, and Tan Wudao's tone was very serious.
"Boss Lu, Miss Wen Shang has been found." Lu Chen's mood that had just recovered just sank again when Tan Wudao said the next sentence. "However, Mr. Lu should be mentally prepared."
Lu Chen didn't know what Tan Wudao said about being mentally prepared. After Lu Chen experienced Oona's encounter in Italy, Lu Chen felt that there was nothing more terrifying than Wen Shang forgetting himself.
"Miss Wen Shang's condition is very bad, you'd better come to the hospital to have a look."
Lu Chen didn't even think about it, he just gave up the meeting he was going to, and rushed to Lu's private hospital like crazy.Tan Wudao said that the man was fished up from a river downstream of the river where the accident happened, and was discovered by a worker who scooped up sand.
Needless to say, it has been soaked in the water for 14 days. It is difficult for Lu Chen to accept this fact, but he still made up his mind to go to the hospital.
When he came to the hospital, Lu Chen saw the heavy faces of the people standing outside the room. Just standing here, Lu Chen could already smell a very unpleasant and pungent smell.
Lu Chen looked helplessly at Tan Wudao who was also wearing a mask, and felt really powerless in his heart.He has been waiting for the result all this time, but what he didn't expect is still in vain.
"Give me a mask." Lu Chen stretched out his hand towards Tan Wudao, and said so lightly.
"Forget it, Mr. Lu." Tan Wudao felt that it would be better for Lu Chen not to go in under such circumstances. "I think you'd better not go in and take a look. Whether it's the clothes or the items on your body, it's undoubtedly Miss Wen Shang."
"The corpse has been soaked in water for many days, and it is already highly decomposed"
As Tan Wudao said, he took out the photo taken by the forensic doctor and placed it in front of Lu Chen.Lu Chen took it with trembling hands, and he could see that the clothes in the photo and the items on his body were all gentle and correct.
Lu Chen only felt that his heart was stabbed hard by some very sharp object, and that irresistible pain was spreading throughout his body.Lu Chen's hands trembled, and the photos fell to the ground one after another.
"She left me." Lu Chen murmured, his eyes were very empty, and he didn't know where his eyes were focused.
"President Lu, my condolences." Tan Wudao knew that all his rhetoric seemed very feeble at this moment and in this situation.After holding back for a long time, he could only solemnly say to Lu Chen, "Mr. Lu, take care of your body. The most important thing right now is to deal with Miss Wen Shang's affairs well."
But Lu Chen still stood there sluggishly, he didn't respond for a long time, standing there was like a sculpture.After a while, Lu Chen slowly opened his mouth, his voice hoarse.
"You go down first."
When the people present heard what Lu Chen said, they all looked at each other in blank dismay. After all, the situation in front of them was special, and they had a little bit of choice when facing Lu Chen.
"Listen to your boss, go down first." At this moment, Tan Wudao spoke. "I'll handle it here."
Hearing what Tan Wudao said, the others were relieved and slowly retreated.Tan Wudao looked at Lu Chen after everyone around him had left.
"Boss Lu, you really don't have to take this matter too seriously, it has nothing to do with you at all." Tan Wudao knew that ever since Wen Shang's accident happened, Lu Chen had been blaming himself very much in his heart. There were even mistakes at work. "How should I put it... If natural disasters and man-made disasters are coming, no one can stop them..."
"I know, I just feel it's unfair." Lu Chen held his forehead, his tone very distressed. "Her short life was full of ups and downs...God shouldn't treat her like this."
Lu Chen stood like this for a long time before he said to Tan Wudao, "You still want to go on, I want to be alone here for a while."
When Tan Wudao heard Lu Chen say this, he turned around and left without hesitation. He knew that facing the current situation, Lu Chen needed his own space and time to accept all this.
After Tan Wudao and you left, there was only one person in the whole corridor.The passage of life is always silent, just like the silence of the entire corridor now.
Lu Chen squatted down slowly against the wall. He could perfectly cover up his sadness in front of others, but when everyone left and he was alone, he couldn't hold back his sadness anymore.
Lu Chen frantically grabbed his hair and shouted silently in the entire corridor. Although he couldn't hear the sound, he could see the blue veins on his neck.
Who can imagine his current situation, he is still alive, but his beloved is dead... He is sitting outside, but his beloved is lying in the cold, no longer able to feel everything outside.
Lu Chen originally had certain fantasies about all this. He felt that Wen Shang was only gone temporarily, and he would see her again one day, but now it seems that it is a complete parting of life and death...
"Xiao Shang..." Life and death are farewell, but the one who lives is the most painful.Lu Chen painfully recalled all the memories between Wen Shang and himself outside, but felt that it was long but not enough.
……
Three days later, Wen Shang's funeral was held in the midst of journalists' guns and short guns.Lu Chen had no expression the whole time, his eyes were filled with sadness.
During the burial, the weather suddenly became exactly the same as the day the old man of the Lu family was buried, and suddenly it started to rain.Because of these idioms, the weather became gloomy and cold throughout the day. In the gusts of cold wind, the people who came to the funeral left one after another. Only Lu Chen was still standing in front of the tombstone.
Wen Yunian took Yuan Mo and the two children to watch from a distance. Lu Chen, who was standing in front of the tombstone blankly, didn't seem to realize that it was raining, and stood there alone in the rain.
A few days ago when he just heard the news, Tuanzi was very sad and cried for a long time, but today Tuanzi was extraordinarily quiet, he didn't say a word the whole time and just watched silently.
"Tuanzi." At this moment, Wen Yunian opened his mouth, and handed an umbrella to Tuanzi. "Go and give this umbrella to your father."
Tuanzi didn't say anything but just took the umbrella, opened it and walked towards Lu Chen silently.It was only at this time that Wen Yunian realized that Tuanzi's footsteps were very vain, as if he was about to lose his balance and fall down while walking.
"When I just got up this morning to deliver breakfast to Tuanzi, I found that the child's voice was hoarse from crying, and his eyes were swollen like a heart." When Yuan Mo said these words, he was full of distress for Tuanzi. "This child's life is as miserable as his mother's. The child has experienced so many things at a young age... It's really hard to imagine what will happen to him in the future."
"It's not a bad thing..." Wen Yunian lowered his gaze. "This matter can temper his character, it just depends on how he survives this level."
Holding an umbrella, Tuanzi walked towards Lu Chen with difficulty in the wind. The three were much bigger than his whole body, and when the wind blew down, almost no one with the umbrella was blown out.
Tuanzi stumbled to Lu Chen's back and called out in a low voice.
"dad……"
Hearing Tuanzi's voice, Lu Chen slowly turned his head to look at the pitifully small Tuanzi, Lu Chen felt even more heavy in his heart.
"Tuanzi..." Lu Chen put his generous hand on the head of the dumpling and rubbed it, then took the umbrella from the dumpling's hand and held it in his hand.
"I don't have a mother anymore..." Tuanzi's words almost pierced Lu Chen's heart. It was a very sad thing, but it was even more sad when it came out of the child's mouth.
Lian Tuanzi realized that his mother would never come back again, but when Lu Chen saw the tombstone with Wen Shang's photo in front of him, he still couldn't accept the fact in front of him.
So facing what Tuanzi said, Lu Chen fell silent and did not answer.
"Will Dad find another mother for me in the future?" Tuanzi asked again in a hoarse voice, tilting his head and looking up at Lu Chen, his eyes were full of pleading.
"No more." Lu Chen felt distressed seeing the dumpling like this, and made a promise to the dumpling lightly. "Father will take you with me from now on."
Speaking of this, Lu Chen couldn't help thinking of the time when Wen Shang was alone with his children abroad when he was not around.Now that I think about it, I don't know how difficult that period was, and how such a little girl survived.
"Okay, let's go back." Lu Chen thought for a while and the time was almost up. If he continued to stay here, it might not be good for Tuanzi's health.
After the father and son left, the entire cemetery was quiet, and the tombstones became darker under the wetness of the rain, but they also looked more desolate.
Yang's
"Yes, Lu Chen's suspicion has been dispelled." Ethan contacted Yang Gan in the dark with a phone. "I went to see the funeral in person today and it has already been held. Now I'm afraid I really believe that Wen Shang is dead."
"That's good."
Yang Gan thought of what Wen Shang told him about Lu Chen's entanglement with her when he met Lu Chen at the airport before, and every time he thought about it, he felt very annoyed in his heart.So he simply asked Ethan to help him out, and it would be better if Lu Chen was completely determined.
"Has the matter of the dead man been dealt with?" Yang Gan asked again after thinking about it and feeling uneasy.
"Don't worry, young master. As long as an unknown corpse is faked well, no one will ask about it. Don't worry about that."
"Ah That's good."
