Chapter 691: Back Home

When he heard the news that Han Luofan’s flight had already arrived at the airport on the radio, Han Bing could not sit still for a moment. He immediately stood up and strode towards the arrival gate. Everyone watched him leave before looking at each other.

After that adult walked away, they gathered together and discussed.

Han Bing stood at the entrance of the passageway and looked forward to it. However, as time passed and more and more people came out and he was about to pick them up, Han Bing almost wanted to retreat. He hoped to see them sooner, but he was afraid to see them.

He felt conflicted.

However, time was the cruelest. Time did not wait for anyone. Before Han Bing was mentally prepared, he saw Han Luofan appear on the passageway.

Behind him were Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo.

Han Bing could not be bothered to size up the children’s situation. His eyes were fixed on the thing that Han Luofan was holding with both hands. It should be an urn. In order to avoid attracting others’ attention and criticism, Han Luofan used a black cloth box to store the urn.

The cloth wrapped the box very well and a bow was tied on the lid of the urn. The bow was beautifully tied, like the headband Ji Yue had tied to her hair many years ago.

Their former lovers had been separated for many years. When they met again, he was already old with white sideburns. Ji Yue, on the other hand, had moved into a small box. She did not breathe, did not act coquettishly, and did not get angry.

When Han Luofan saw Han Bing, he stood rooted to the ground.

Han Bing raised his leg and walked towards Han Luofan.

The short few steps were especially slow. Every step consumed Han Bing’s lifespan and cut his heart with a knife. It could be said to be a stab to his heart. When Han Bing learned how to walk when he was a child, he had never been so afraid to move forward.

“Dad.”

Han Luofan could tell that Han Bing had lost his composure and was a little worried.

He hugged the box in his arms tightly. He heard Han Bing ask, “This is…” Han Bing did not have the courage to continue speaking.

Han Luofan understood what he meant.

Han Luofan nodded and said softly, “These are Mom’s ashes. They’ve been cremated.”

“Okay.”

Han Bing reached out and took the box shakily.

The box was light and weightless in his hands.

In the past, Ji Yue always talked about losing weight. If she lost weight, she would look good in a dress… At that time, Han Bing despised her for wasting her body and thought that she did not cherish her body and lost weight recklessly. Now, Han Luofan hugged the jar in his hand. He felt that the box and ashes were at most two pounds.

Han Bing raised his arms, lowered his head, and placed his cheek on the urn.

He said to Ji Yue, “Xiao Yue, you’re back. Don’t be afraid anymore.”

“Brother Han will bring you home. Let’s go home, okay?” When Han Bing said the last word, his voice suddenly broke and became hoarse.

Han Luofan’s heart ached.

Ji Yinbing looked at this scene and frowned before turning her head to look elsewhere.

…

The Ji family decorated the main hall of the courtyard into a mourning hall.

Ji Yue’s ashes were placed in the mourning hall for three days. During this period, there were monks chanting scriptures to send her off. These few days, Ji Yinbing, Yan Nuo, Han Bing, Han Luofan, as well as Ji Yue’s brothers and sisters, were all guarding this place. On the day her ashes were buried, all the juniors of the Ji family returned.

After discussing, Ji Jie and the rest finally decided to bury Ji Yue by the grave of their fourth brother, Ji Chen. When they were alive, Ji Chen often talked about Xiao Wu. After they died, the siblings were buried together. It could be considered that they had fulfilled Ji Chen’s wish.

They had made a tombstone for Ji Yue. Ji Yue’s name was carved on the pure black tombstone. There was no detailed introduction below the name, only a sentence—

She had descended into this world and seen many sights and met many people. Although the scenery was beautiful, the human heart was evil, so she went back. May our beloved daughter rest in peace here and go to a real, kind, and beautiful world in her next life.

Such a tablet was rare, but it contained the Ji family’s blessings for Xiao Wu.

Ji Jie sprinkled some wine in front of Ji Chen’s grave and said, “Lao Si, Xiao Wu is back and is buried with you. You can rest in peace now.”

A breeze blew past, sweeping away all the bloody storms that belonged to decades ago.

After the funeral, everyone who attended the funeral had to return to the Ji family for lunch. Han Luofan’s identity had been made public. He was also the Ji family’s grandson now. Ji Jie and the rest were not used to this eldest grandson who had suddenly appeared.

This was the first time Han Luofan sat on the table as a family member, and he felt quite uncomfortable.

He sat at the same table as Ji Yinbing. When they were eating, Han Luofan always had something on his mind.

Suddenly, Ji Jie’s question sounded in the hall. He asked Yan Nuo, “Mr. Yan, when are you planning to marry Yinbing?”

This question stumped Ji Yinbing.

On the other hand, Yan Nuo put down his chopsticks and raised his head calmly. He looked at Ji Jie and said, “June. The temporary date is June 14th.” He looked around at the familiar faces in the room and gave a rare smile. He said, “I hope that everyone can take the time to attend our wedding.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Jie and the rest nodded with a smile.

No one dared to joke with Yan Nuo. Everyone nodded and said that they would go.

Yan Nuo picked up his chopsticks again and heard Ji Yinbing ask, “When did you decide on a good day?” Previously, he had only said that it was May and June, but he had never confirmed the date. Upon hearing this, Yan Nuo looked at Ji Yinbing and said, “Just now.”

Ji Yinbing was stunned. She felt that her eldest grandfather was forcing her to get married.

Under the table, Yan Nuo grabbed Ji Yinbing’s hand and said, “Don’t think too much.”

Ji Yinbing smiled in relief.

Ji Yinbing’s room was set in Ji Chen’s courtyard. After dinner, they sat for a while before Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo left together. They planned to go back to their rooms to rest. When Han Luofan saw this, he quickly put out his cigarette and chased after them.

The couple walked in front while Han Luofan chased after them.

Ji Yinbing stopped and said, “Why are you following me?”

Han Luofan touched the back of his head in embarrassment and revealed a smile that he thought was well-mannered. However, when his smile landed in Ji Yinbing’s eyes, it became a silly and sweet smile. She was speechless.

“Then…” Han Luofan was a little embarrassed. He adopted a good attitude and looked at Ji Yinbing deeply. He asked,” Have you thought about that situation previously? ”

Ji Yinbing looked confused.

“What is it?”

Han Luofan said through gritted teeth, “About recognizing me as your brother.”

Ji Yinbing had a strange expression.

At the side, Yan Nuo could not help but laugh in his heart. He had heard before that his mother-in-law used to be a cute and innocent little girl. He was quite puzzled about why his lover was not naive and cute at all. He felt that the innocent and cute genes in his mother-in-law had all been inherited by Han Luofan.
