  Butler Fu said, “It’s late! It’s time to go home!”


  Sheng’er nodded and said, “Yes! Perhaps Mommy is already waiting for me at home!”


  Butler Fu was stunned, but he couldn’t bear to look at her so he turned away. Sheng’er was still looking forward to her mother taking her home. But, that was not going to happen…


  …


  When Butler Fu brought the two little fellows back to the Gu family residence, there were three people standing in the hall. Butler Fu was surprised, but Sheng’er recognized them at once, “Grandma?”


  The moment the girl spoke, a white-haired old lady turned around. When she saw the girl, tears welled up in her eyes at once. She walked over shakily and embraced the girl, crying, “My poor Sheng’er… sob sob sob…”


  Sheng’er’s eyes widened in surprise. She did not know what had happened. Looking around, she saw her grandfather and aunt as well…


  However, she did not see her parents!

  Sheng’er could not understand why her grandmother was crying so hard and what was going on. She asked curiously, “Grandma, why are you crying?”


  “Sheng’er… your daddy… your daddy and mommy are both gone…”


  “…”


  Sheng’er did not understand the meaning behind those words. She frowned, and noticed that her grandfather and aunt were wiping their tears away too.

  Chu He walked over and comforted the elderly lady, “Sheng’er’s Grandma, don’t be sad, my deepest condolences. The child is still young, don’t scare her…”


  “How could I not be sad?!”


  The white-haired elderly lady beat her chest in great sorrow. “I have only two sons. My eldest and youngest sons both died suddenly, putting an end to our family line…”


  The old man sighed sadly.

  They had arrived overnight and gone to the hospital in the morning to identify the bodies. They had confirmed the three bodies in the morgue to be their two sons, and daughter-in-law. This daughter-in-law was pregnant, and the unborn child was gone just like that too!

  “The Bai family… will have no descendants!” The old master lamented sadly.

  They were born in a small town, and the local concept was still rather feudal and backward. They placed great importance on continuing the family line.

  Their younger son was unmarried, and their elder son and daughter-in-law had given birth to a daughter. They had urged the couple to have a second child, hoping that it would be a grandson.

  Ever since they found out that Jiang Xiaoqian was pregnant, the two of them got extremely excited and brought their daughter-in-law back to the hospital in the county city. They specially did an ultrasound and offered a bribe to find out the gender of the fetus!

  It was a boy!

  The entire family was overjoyed!

  Grandson!

  This was precious!

  His youngest son and eldest grandson were the Old Master’s lifeline!

  In the end, a car accident took all four lives in the blink of an eye.

  The way they died was so horrible, they were all unrecognizable. Even the most skillful undertaker could not help them leave decently.

  The old man wanted to cry but no tears came. He was heartbroken and almost passed out in the hospital. As for Grandma, she was already in tears. The police took pity on them and refused to let them look at the bodies for too long.

  Chu He’s colleague gave them her contact information and told them that Sheng’er was at the Gu family residence. The two of them took a taxi over and when they found out that their son and daughter-in-law had met with the accident on the way to pick up Sheng’er from the party, they were so upset that they kept crying.

  Sheng’er wiped her grandmother’s tears away and asked in a strange tone, “Grandma, why are you crying? Where is Mommy? Where is Daddy? Why aren’t they here?”
