387 Passed Away
o
When she opened the door, Chu Ning saw Mother Chu crying her heart out, while Father Chu was sitting on the sofa in a daze, his eyes empty.

“Mom, Dad, I’m sorry for your loss.” Chu Ning knew that her parents must be broken-hearted.

Chu Ning did not know how to comfort them. The pain of losing one’s loved ones was really devastating.

“Xiao Ning, it’s like this. Mom and Dad have already bought tickets to go back to their hometown, and they have to go back in advance to announce the death. Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Aunt and the rest have already set off. Big Brother and the others are also rushing back,” Chu Jing said with a solemn expression.

“We’ll go tomorrow morning,” Chu Jing added.

The hometown that Chu Jing was speaking of was the place where Chu Ning’s grandfather and grandmother lived.

Only Chu Zhe and Chu Jing had lived in their hometown before and had an impression of it. Their hometown was not in Province A but was far from M City. It was thousands of miles away.

“Do I need to prepare anything when I go back?” Chu Ning asked.

“When the time comes, we’ll just follow Mom and Dad’s instructions,” Chu Jing explained.

Chu Ning was about to ask something, but Chu Huan spoke first after looking at the time.

“Second Brother, let’s send Mom and Dad downstairs first. The taxi is here.”

“Alright.” Chu Jing nodded.

In order to save time, Mr. and Mrs. Chu were taking a taxi to the high-speed rail station. They had to go back for the funeral first.

“Mom, Dad… Take care of your health,” Chu Ning couldn’t help but say softly when she saw her parents’ heartbroken expressions.

“Xiao Ning, we’ll go back first,” Father Chu looked at Chu Ning with a complicated expression. He then left the Chu residence with Mother Chu.

Only Chu Ning and Chu Zhang were left in the living room.

“We will experience this kind of permanent separation in the future,” Chu Zhang looked at Chu Ning and said softly.

“I know. When I saw Dad’s eyes just now, I really felt his pain. He should be feeling regretful that he didn’t get to see Grandpa for the last time before he died.” Chu Ning sighed. She did not dare to imagine what would happen if something happened to her parents one day…

“Grandpa and Grandma lived in Province S in a small village on the edge of the city surrounded by mountains. The living conditions there are very poor, so Mom and Dad left when they were in their twenties. So did Eldest Uncle and the others.” Although Chu Zhang had lived in the hospital previously, he clearly knew more than Chu Ning did regarding certain aspects of the Chu family.

After all, Chu Ning had been living in the Ye family previously, so she could not know about this.

“The more backward a place is, the more old-fashioned it is. Chu Ning, Mom and Dad didn’t plan on telling you this. After all, our hometown values boys over girls and we’re afraid that you’ll be wronged when you go back. However, after Second Brother called Big Brother, he felt that we shouldn’t keep this from you. After all, your surname is Chu and you’re a member of the Chu family. As for whether you’re willing to go back, we’ll have to respect your opinion,” Chu Zhang said after thinking for a while.

“I’ll go.” Chu Ning didn’t hesitate. Chu Zhe was right. She was a member of the Chu family now. Although she had never met her grandfather, it was necessary for her to go back.

“You’ll be staying in our hometown for at least three days. Won’t it affect your career?” Chu Zhang knew that besides going to school, Chu Ning also had her own business.

“It’s fine. It won’t affect me,” Chu Ning said with a smile.

When Chu Ning said this, she suddenly thought of someone.

Without her, almost no one was Zhou Hao’s match.

The current situation was ever-changing. Three days was sufficient for many things to change.

Even though this was M City.

But that person could definitely do it. After all, he was the person who knew Zhou Hao the best.

After some thought, Chu Ning made her decision.

Without hesitation, Chu Ning took her phone out and made a call.

“Zhou Wei, I’ll have to trouble you with something…”

After hanging up, Chu Ning separately called Zhang Bo, Bai Hong, and the other core members of the Soaring Clouds Group to inform them that Zhou Wei would be managing the affairs of the Soaring Clouds Group on her behalf during her absence.

After doing all this, Chu Ning finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“Xiao Ning, have you really decided to come back with us?” Chu Jing asked slowly after seeing Chu Ning put down her phone.

“Of course. When Mom and Dad go back for the funeral this time, they’ll definitely encounter some problems.” Chu Ning was being very tactful. Her parents would definitely run into trouble when they went back to the funeral.

“Alright, there are some things that you know more than us.” Chu Jing nodded and did not refute.

Chu Huan wanted to say something, but he stopped when Chu Jing glared at him.
