This news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Chen Shujie dumbfounded.

"Li Mingzhuo is dead? How did he die?" Chen Shujie couldn't believe it.

Li Junhao looked at the woman in front of him with mixed emotions, "I killed her with my own hands!"

Chen Shujie's body shook.

"What's wrong, Sister Chen? Are you concerned about my father?"

"No, I was just asking casually, but how could you beat your own father to death?" She wanted to say that this would be punished by God, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.

But her son seemed to know what she was going to say. Li Junhao said, "We have been a vassal state of others since ancient times and have been influenced by their culture, but I have my own judgment!"

"The ruler is the leader of his subjects, and the father is the leader of his sons. These are the shackles placed on ordinary people."

"The father has no moral compass. He did something against the will of Heaven to his son. Shouldn't he be executed? Shouldn't we just let it go? Why should the victim be punished by Heaven? This is all brainwashing rhetoric from the rulers!"

"With a simple statement that this is a family disgrace that shouldn't be aired publicly, and that things should be kept quiet, is he left with nothing but the wrath of his conscience? Does such a person even have a conscience?"

Chen Shujie was completely numb. "Who did you learn this from?"

Lee Jung-ho has no regrets. "This is my own thinking. I didn't learn it from anyone. Even if I had to do it ten times, I would still choose to do it this way!"

"He's not worthy of being a father. He's hurt the two most important women in my life."

"One is Sister Cui, and the other is my mother."

Li Tinghao's eyes were burning as he stared at the woman in front of him. "Sister Chen, can you understand how a son feels? If I were your son, what would you think?"

"I..." Chen Shujie stammered, with tears in her eyes.

She has not fulfilled her obligations as a mother, nor has she participated in accompanying her child's life. What qualifications do I have to judge?

"I don't deserve a son like you... I'm not a qualified mother at all..."

Although it was a helpless choice, Chen Shujie still felt very guilty. She simply did not have the courage to recognize her son.

She had no idea about the inner expectations of her son, Li Junhao. "Ever since I was old enough to understand, I envied other children for having mothers. When I heard them calling for their mothers, I was especially envious. Every time I heard it, my heart ached. I wanted a mother, too."

"Sister Chen, can you understand my feelings?"

"I was only three years old when my mother passed away. I have no memory of her. The image of her in my mind is just a vague concept, but every time I imagine her, it seems so beautiful!"

Li Jung-ho was talking to himself, immersed in expressing his emotions, and did not notice that the woman in front of him was already in tears.

"Yes...I'm sorry..."

The airflow from Chen Shujie's vocal cords was trembling and weak, and her voice was almost choked.

"You miss your son too, right?"

"Stop...stop talking..."

Li Tinghao raised his head and stared, and the sister Chen he was talking about suddenly stood up and ran away.

She went into the bathroom, held her face in the running water, and washed it again and again, looking at herself in the mirror in a trance.

Of course, in the living room outside, Li Junhao was always observing. He could be heard mumbling to himself, "She is most likely my mother. My eyes are very similar to hers..."

Unconsciously, he became a little selfless.

Finally he stood outside the bathroom door.

"Sister Cui, I'll leave it to you. I need to go back to the Li family. There are things that belong to me there."

Chen Shujie's voice came from the bathroom, "Come back early, this is your home too."

.........

The Li family was holding a funeral, and celebrities from all walks of life came to pay their respects. A black-framed photo of Chairman Li Mingzhuo was placed in the hall.

In Country H, the first step in handling funerals is to summon the soul.

During the first and last rites, the family will perform a soul-calling ceremony, hoping that the soul of the deceased can rest in peace.

As the eldest son in the family, Li Junhao was the one who hired the necromancy wizard.

??Then comes the collection of bodies, handling of the deceased’s remains, and ensuring they are properly placed.

??As for announcing the death of his father, it was he, the eldest son, who was responsible for informing relatives and friends of the news!

??Finally, a mortician and two undertakers were called in to clean and dress the body.

The last step is burial: choosing a suitable cemetery and burying the body.

Avoiding the guests, the two brothers discussed the matter in front of important relatives.

There are eight brothers and sisters in the branch of Li family, Shen Xue, and the eldest and second oldest are surnamed Li.

Of course, they didn't know that Li Mingzhuo's original wife Chen Yuen was not dead.

"Tinghao, things have come to this point. Let us decide. Your father should be buried in the same cemetery as your mother."

Li Tinghao looked at his brother who was wearing a filial piety badge on his arm and said, "I think our father and Yun Kai's mother Bai Ruoxi should be buried together in the original Jilingshan Manor."

That was where Bai Ruoxi committed suicide by jumping off the building.

"This……"

"I'm the eldest son, so it's decided."

"Bai Ruoxi can't enter the ancestral hall, but she and my father have a deep love for each other, so they are a perfect match."

Qin Muxue stood aside with a half-smile on her face.

"It still depends on Yun Kai's opinion. I have no opinion."

Li Yunkai did not express his opinion, which means he had already expressed his opinion.

The funeral proceeded according to the procedure and the guests left one after another!

The entire funeral lasted three days.

Privately, in a room, Li Tinghao lit a stick of incense and offered sacrifices to the Three Pure Ones in the shrine.

"May my Li family prosper."

At this time Li Yunkai walked in.

"Brother, you're here to burn incense too! Are you here to repent for what happened to Dad?"

Li Jung-ho raised the incense with both hands and bowed, saying casually, "There is someone else who needs to repent!"

Li Yunkai also lit a stick of incense and stood over to him. "Don't you have anything to say about your father's death?"

Li Junhao said calmly, "Yes!"

"My father once said that I, the eldest son, should take over the group and protect the Li family business."

Li Yunkai's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled. "But I wasn't there, so there's no way I can prove whether he said those words to you."

"However, you should focus more on managing your fleet. You haven't been involved in the group's business for so many years, so naturally you don't have relevant experience."

"As for me, most of the group's shareholders have now seen the current situation clearly and hope that I can lead them. The shares I hold are already greater than yours. As for who will be the heir, it should be the shareholders who have the final say."

"Then let's wait and see!"

After offering incense, Li Junhao turned around and was about to leave.

"Is your wife okay?"

Li Yunkai suddenly said.

Li Junhao stopped and said, "I recently learned how to read faces. Your ending will be even worse than your father and your mother!"

Li Yunkai smiled slightly.

"I also offer what you just said, so let's wait and see!"
