Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The location of the funeral was to be at a cemetery on the outskirts of the county town.

Pingzhuang Cemetery.

Under the clear sky, the wind blew gently.

White wreaths and couplets were placed on both sides of the tombstone. Relatives and friends all observed a moment of silence.

Chu Guozhong’s sons and daughters knelt in front of the tombstone. The eyes of the eldest son, Chu Anfu, were already red. He looked at the portrait and wailed in grief:

“Father, have a safe journey! You can rest assured that this family and the funds will be handed over to me!”

“What?”

Upon hearing this, Chu Anlu could not take it anymore and immediately retorted.

“On what basis? Your name is written on paper? You want me to give it to you just because you say so?”

Chu Anxin, who was at the side, quickly echoed.

“That’s right. Father did not make any will and said that he wanted to give this money to you! As long as I’m here, you can forget about getting a single cent!”

“I’m the eldest son of the Chu family. If you don’t give me this money, do you think I’ll give it to you?”

Chu Anfu claimed the money as soon as he said he would. At that moment, he glared fiercely at his younger brother and sister.

Right in front of the tombstone, the three of them looked at each other as if they were enemies. There was no such thing as flesh and blood!

At that moment, Chu Guozhong could no longer hear the argument between his children.

One of the elders of the Chu family immediately stopped them.

“Enough! Why don’t you look around! The three of you are blood-related siblings. Aren’t you afraid that your father will be disappointed if you do this in front of his grave! ? It does not look good!”

The three siblings continued to argue until their faces turned red. They could directly fight in front of the cemetery at any time.

The surrounding relatives and friends looked at this scene with complicated expressions and sighed endlessly.

Occasionally, there would be a few interlopers who wanted to cut in. When the three of them were rich, they could go and borrow their money. After all, the money would sooner or later belong to the three of them. It was inevitable.

At that moment, a few cars suddenly drove into the cemetery.

“Eh? Didn’t they say that cars were not allowed in?”

“Yeah, I was also stopped outside. How did this car get in?”

“They must have some sway over things. Who could it be?”

The leading car was a Mercedes-Benz.

It stopped steadily in front of Chu Guozhong’s grave, ten meters away.

The driver got out of the car and opened the door:

“Sir, we’re here!”

A white-haired old man dressed in an old-fashioned military uniform stretched out a trembling hand from the car. The driver hurriedly went forward to help him up, very respectfully.

After the old man got off the car, everyone realized that there were a few shining military medals hanging on his chest. He was clearly a veteran who had achieved military merits.

When the old man saw Chu Guozhong’s tombstone, tears immediately rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

Everyone’s expression immediately changed:

“This… This is Guozhong’s comrade-in-arms?”

“It should be. Judging from his clothes, he was wearing the same military uniform that Guozhong had on him!”

“I remember that he has a medal on his chest as well!”

While everyone was shocked, three old men walked out from the other vehicles.

They were all wearing the same old military uniform. There were some medals on their chests, and one of them was a medal. It seemed that the three old soldiers were all the same.

“These are my father’s comrades. I thought they wouldn’t come.”

Chu Anfu immediately recognized the veterans and explained to everyone.

He had seen it on his father’s phone before. He had heard his father say that these comrades did not seem to have high statuses. They were all ordinary veterans.

They did not contact each other much.

He had first informed his family and friends about his father’s death before informing the three elders.

Originally, he had sent a message out as a symbolic gesture. He had not expected them to come.

However, reality proved that he had underestimated his father’s comrade-in-arms.

Looking at the stumbling elder, out of courtesy, Chu Anfu quickly went forward to help him up.

Unexpectedly…

The elder glared at him and pushed him away:

“Scram! How could elder brother Chu give birth to unfilial sons and daughters like you? Unfilial things!”

When the old man was young, he had also been a hot-tempered person. Chu Anfu was stunned as he took the verbal lashing in the face!

At the very least, he should have left some face for himself. How could he reject him so mercilessly?

Chu Anfu’s expression was ugly as he took a few steps back. Everyone was watching.

Based on his status as a veteran, even if the other party beat and scolded him, he could only silently accept it. He did not dare to get angry on the spot.

Two other old men also walked forward.

One of the old men looked at Chu Anfu and the other two, shook his head and sighed:

“Sigh, it’s not easy for Old Chu to raise three children by himself!”

In front of Chu Guozhong’s grave,

“Old Chu, why did you suddenly leave?”

“You even lied to us, saying that it was only minor, but you left us first!”

“Old Brother Chu!!”

The three old men walked forward and wept bitterly. Their shriveled hands touched the portrait as if they were touching an old comrade-in-arms. They had faced a hail of bullets before, the three old men, who had not even frowned for a moment, could not stop crying at this moment.

The most conspicuous medal on their chests was exactly the same as the one on Chu’s tombstone. It seemed to be the same medal.

The old man in the lead picked up the medal and seemed to recall the experiences of his comrades. He was in excruciating pain and sorrow:

“The first medal our class won back then was this military medal. You Old Chu, didn’t even tell us before you left!”

Upon seeing this..,

The onlookers curiously asked Chu Anfu, “We didn’t know of this?”

“Isn’t Old Chu an ordinary veteran? How come he knows these people? They don’t seem very ordinary!”

“Exactly, exactly, that medal doesn’t seem simple!”

“Hehe, they are all a group of old men, what statuses can they have?”

Chu Anfu still had an ugly expression on his face having been scolded just now, so he immediately snapped back at them.

He knew his father the best.

He did not have any special abilities. Other than fighting the Japanese back then, he had not done anything earth-shattering. Moreover, his old comrades were all old men and had no value to be used.

When everyone heard this, they soon lost interest in these three veterans.

After all, Chu Guozhong usually kept a low profile. Everyone knew that he was an ordinary veteran.

At the same time…

A relative pointed to a place not far away:

“Who is that?”

Su Chen was wearing a black suit, black sunglasses, and an earpiece. He was particularly eye-catching in the cemetery, and a mysterious aura emanated from his body.

He stood there, silently staring at Chu Guozhong’s tombstone.

The relatives and friends of the Chu family were all stunned.

There did not seem to be any other funerals around, nor were there any tombstones that were being worshipped.

Did this mean that the other party was here to attend Chu Guozhong’s funeral?

“This person is a relative of the Chu family?”

“Does anyone know him? Could he be a distant relative?”

“I’ve never heard of him. Could he be a friend of Guozhong?”

“Such a young friend? Look at his clothes. He’s not an ordinary person!”

An old friend of Chu Guozhong frowned and analyzed him.

“Maybe he’s just passing by. Guozhong has an ordinary life. How could he meet a big shot?”

Even though they were quite a distance away…

Su Chen stood there with a calm expression. The aura that he emitted made everyone feel a different kind of power.

It was a faint deterrent force that kept strangers away!

Under his gaze, Chu Anfu was a little nervous and fell silent.

“Why does this person keep staring at us?”

Under Su Chen’s gaze, everyone did not even dare to breathe loudly.

That piercing gaze seemed to be able to penetrate through the black sunglasses and shocked everyone!

Chu Anlu broke out in cold sweat and asked quietly,

“Was dad hiding something from us? I’ve never been this nervous before when the CEO with a net worth of over a hundred million stood in front of me!”

“That shouldn’t be. Don’t you know how dad looks like? If he knew a big shot, why would he have to sulk for the rest of his life?”

“That’s right. Dad is just an ordinary veteran! With Dad’s status, he’s not worthy of such an existence!”

“To be able to dress like this and have such a strong aura, he must have a powerful background!”

…

Chu Anfu, Chu Anlu, and Chu Anxin discussed quietly, not daring to make a sound.

Other than the three veterans who were crying in front of the grave, many relatives and friends were guessing Su Chen’s identity, but they could not guess his background.

Under the clear sky, it was a beautiful day.

However…

In the next moment, Su Chen held up the black umbrella in his hand!

The black umbrella was completely black, and even the umbrella frame was pitch black.

It was so mysterious and terrifying!

Seeing this scene, everyone’s hair stood on end!

It was not raining, but he was holding a black umbrella, and he was still dressed in such a mysterious manner. What kind of identity did this man have?

A relative asked in fear,

“Do you think that national loyalty was not as simple as we thought?”
