Chapter 187 - 189: Coming Immediately!_1

But before he could reach the airport, he received a phone call.

"What? I see, I’m on my way there!"

Gu Shaocheng ended the call, immediately turned the car around, and sped towards the funeral home.

====================================Two hours earlier===========================================

Two hours earlier, in the student dormitory, one by one, people were starting to move around.

Even in the room where Chenxing stayed, roommates were getting up one after another. With swollen eyes, Chenxing got dressed amidst the rustling sounds. "Chenxing, we don’t have class this morning. You can sleep in if you like. Ning Xia likes to jog in the morning. I’ll ask her to bring breakfast for us," He Xiaoyan, lying nearby, said.

Chenxing shook her head: "No need, I have something to do."

After she had loosely put on her clothes, Ning Xia pulled back the curtains and exclaimed, "Wow, the snow is so thick. Come take a look, it’s beautiful."

"Really? It seemed to have been snowing all last night."

"Ning Xia, take a picture with my phone. I want to post it on my Weibo."

"..."

In the dormitory, the excited cheers of several people failed to arouse Chenxing’s interest. Even the most beautiful scenery could not truly enter her eyes. She took He Xiaoyan’s thermos and washbasin towel to the public basin to wash her face and brush her teeth. After dressing and grooming, she asked, "Xiaoyan, where is your water card? I used all the water in your thermos. I’ll go get water for you."

"It’s fine, just leave it there. I’ll borrow a kettle from the dorm room next door later."

"Okay," she stood there, not knowing how to organize her words of thanks. After thinking for a bit, she asked, "Could you ask for a leave for me this afternoon? I might not have time to go to class. In the evening... If I have no place to sleep, could I stay over here?"

"Of course." He Xiaoyan got up, bundled up in her down jacket. "Chenxing, where are you going? In this snowy weather, if you’re not feeling well, why not just stay in the dorm room? We could chat with you."

"I am going to see my grandparents. I don’t know if they will let me stay. If I end up staying at my grandparents’ place tonight, I won’t come back." She had to tell her grandparents about the unexpected death of her parents. They were adults and probably more capable of handling the situation than her. Even though her grandparents were old, they also had an uncle. Surely, they wouldn’t completely ignore the fact that her parents were killed?

She wasn’t without family. She had grandparents. It was just that all her relatives were hesitant to take care of her, so apart from festival days, she didn’t want to bother them. Chenxing understood that every family had its hardships. Life was not easy, and no one wanted an extra person to support, especially when they were old.

She drove the car carefully over the snowy road, with the car sliding uncontrollably several times.

Finally, she reached the main road outside the school gate and joined the slow-moving traffic. She followed the route in her memory to her grandmother’s apartment building. Upon parking and before she could go upstairs, a neighbor who was grocery shopping downstairs approached her from behind: "Is that you, Chenxing?"

Chenxing turned around, "Grandma Zhuo."

Grandma Zhuo sighed: "Are you also here to see your grandmother off? They’ve all gone to the funeral home. Ah, life is fleeting when one grows old. Take it easy, young girl."
