Chapter 436 The Playboy's Divorced Woman 32
Gu Shenbai struggled to get out, but not a single person in the room dared to stop him.
Unable to stand steadily, he dragged his legs forward.
The sound of the First Madam's weeping, her evasive eyes, and the mournful music outside broke Gu Shenbai's heart.
This can't be true.
Gu Shenbai desperately tried to walk out.
She must be lying to him. Is Xie Qingyu trying to get a divorce so she's using this method to leave?
Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Shenbai's mind. He would rather Xie Qingyu not want to stay in the Gu family than for her to be dead.
"Shen-ge'er!" The First Madam looked at Gu Shenbai struggling to get out, fearing that his body, which had just woken up, would not be able to hold on. "Mother will take you there."
The carriage from the Gu residence set off. Inside sat Gu Shenbai, who had just woken up.
He had been lying in bed for so many days, and he had lost a lot of weight. His lips were chapped, and his eyes were vacant.
The First Madam was heartbroken to see him like this, but Gu Shenbai seemed oblivious; he had only one thought in his mind.
The Gu family's ancestral graves are naturally not here, but after Lord Gu came to the capital, he had already chosen a burial site here, and Xie Qingyu's burial place is also there.
Their carriages were faster than the coffin bearers in front, and even though they left later, they caught up with them halfway through the journey.
As the mournful music drew ever closer, Gu Shenbai's face was covered in tears.
They didn't even wait for the carriage to stop before running outside.
"Stop right now!" The First Madam reached out, but couldn't stop Gu Shenbai's actions.
"Quickly go ahead and tell the master and the others to stop!" The First Madam was extremely anxious, fearing that Gu Shenbai would jump out of the carriage.
The funeral procession was stopped midway, and no one knew why.
No matter how hard the First Madam tried, she couldn't stop Gu Shenbai, so she had two guards carry him over.
Lord Gu in front never expected that it was Gu Shenbai who had woken up.
Looking at Gu Shenbai's current haggard appearance, he took a step forward, somewhat agitated, but didn't say anything.
Gu Shenbai's mind was entirely focused on the coffin.
The exquisitely carved coffin was carried by sixteen people and not put down.
"Father, who's inside? It's not Qingyu, is it?" Gu Shenbai still clung to a sliver of hope at this moment.
Lord Gu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, speaking with some reluctance, "Respect for the dead is paramount. Qingyu has already passed away, so let her rest in peace."
Lord Gu's words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Gu Shenbai slowly placed his hand on his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood. "I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"
Gu Shenbai stepped forward and tried to open the coffin by pulling at it with his hands.
"The coffin has already been sealed. Let her rest in peace." Lord Gu stepped forward to stop her.
The coffin is difficult to place on the ground midway, and the weight of the coffin is currently pressing down on these people, which will be very tiring in the long run.
“Father, how could she be dead? No way…” Gu Shenbai could barely stand.
Lord Gu had never seen Gu Shenbai like this in all these years; the shrill sound made him want to shed tears.
How could this happen? They were living a good life together.
But there's nothing we can do now. Xie Qingyu has already passed away, and we can't let Gu Shenbai waste his time here.
Lord Gu forcefully helped Gu Shenbai up and instructed the guards beside him to keep an eye on him.
"If you have any conscience at all, then let her go on her final journey properly. After all, she died trying to save you."
