Chapter 732 My boyfriend asked me to keep vigil for his grandfather (1)
When the original owner had been dating her boyfriend Song Chen for a year, Song Chen's grandfather passed away. Song Chen invited the original owner to attend his grandfather's funeral and meet his family.
The original owner agreed without much thought and immediately revised the train ticket to go to the Song family.
But what happened next opened her eyes.
Song Chen asked him to observe mourning for his grandfather.
Although the original owner didn't understand some things, she knew it was wrong, since the two weren't married yet.
The original owner immediately refused.
Song Chen's parents and sister stepped forward to persuade the original owner, saying that it was their local custom and that if the original owner didn't do it, the villagers would laugh at her. They asked the original owner to understand and be considerate of them, saying that at worst, she could just pretend to do it.
They adopted a very humble attitude, and their eyes were full of pleading.
The original owner was a soft-hearted girl, and after hesitating for a while, she agreed.
That very night, she observed a period of mourning for Song Chen's grandfather. Initially, there were many people in the mourning hall, and the original owner of this body also thought that these people would accompany her.
But gradually she was left alone in the mourning hall. The original owner was a little scared, so she called Song Chen and said that she didn't want to keep vigil anymore.
She hopes to get her boyfriend's support.
But Song Chen didn't support her at all; instead, he said that the original owner was untrustworthy.
The original owner ran away in a fit of anger.
Song Chen's home was in a very remote place, surrounded by mountains. The original owner of this body accidentally fell while walking and died on the spot.
The Song family was unaware of the original owner's accident. The next day, seeing no one at the funeral hall, they said that Song Chen's girlfriend was no good and told Song Chen to break up with the original owner.
Song Chen was also very angry, feeling that the original owner had made him lose face in front of his family. So, he dialed the original owner's number, wanting to break up with him.
No one answered the phone for a long time, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
In the end, it was the original owner's parents who realized they couldn't contact their daughter, reported it to the police, and then contacted Song Chen. Only then did Song Chen learn that something had happened to the original owner.
Feeling a little guilty, but unable to bear the responsibility of taking a life, he said the original owner had brought it upon himself.
The original owner's death had no direct connection with the Song family, and the Song family was unaffected.
Afterwards, Song Chen started a new life, concealing his past with the original owner of the body, and began dating a new girl.
Only the original owner's parents lived in grief over the loss of their daughter, spending their days in tears.
……
When Xu Jinhuan arrived, she was already at the Song family's house. Just as she was turning to leave, Song Chen noticed her and called out, "Huanhuan, come in quickly. Let me introduce you to my family. They've been wanting to meet you for a long time."
Xu Jinhuan glanced around and said meaningfully, "This is how you treat your guests here."
Song Chen looked bewildered, not understanding what she meant by those words.
"It's because an elder in the family passed away, and I need to bring my girlfriend to meet my parents." Xu Jinhuan asked bluntly, "I just called my parents, and they said that doing this is a bit disrespectful to the woman."
Song Chen's expression changed slightly. "This is our local custom. If you can't accept it, you can leave now."
He said so.
Xu Jinhuan turned and left without hesitation.
Song Chen was dumbfounded.
The Song family members who were eavesdropping inside the house were also dumbfounded.
"Hurry and chase after them!" Song's mother said anxiously as she ran out.
She also planned to have this future daughter-in-law keep vigil for Song Chen's grandfather.
It is said that this is good for the family.
But I never expected this girl to be so willful; she ran away without a word.
They run so fast, it's like they're riding on wheels of fire.
Song Chen couldn't catch up and could only return dejectedly.
"Brother, how can you be so useless? You can't even catch a girl." Song Yu looked at Song Chen with disdain.
He was very agitated. Without this woman, would her mother make him keep vigil?
She doesn't want to stay!
Thinking this, she said to Song Chen, "Brother, why don't you give her a call and try to persuade her again?"
"They just ran away when they were right at their doorstep. That's incredibly rude."
Song Chen felt the same way.
I completely forgot what he just said.
