With the help of the little servant, Chen Jinping staggered through the crowd to the front of the coffin. His lips started trembling when he saw the lifeless and blackened body of Zou Zhiguang inside the coffin: "Old Man Zou..."
He couldn't believe that the meeting more than half a month ago turned out to be their last, and now they were forever separated.
"Old Man Zou, you clearly said you'd live to eighty, how could you break your word?" Chen Jinping lightly patted the coffin and choked: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have stopped Xiao Ruo from visiting you, otherwise it wouldn't have..."
Chen Jinping took out a handkerchief to cover his eyes, overwhelmed with grief.
If he hadn't stopped Xiao Ruo, and Xiao Ruo had brought Old Man Zou back to Houling Village, with Xiao Ruo there, how could Old Man Zou have been poisoned?
Chen Jinping's words made Xiao Ruo feel even worse because Xiao Ruo was already filled with regret.
