Chapter 35

Lin Jing stepped aside and gave up her seat to Li Meili.

"Old Cheng...Old Cheng..." Holding his hand, Li Meili whispered, tears fell uncontrollably, kissed his hand, and whispered: "Don't leave me..."

Cheng Taihe raised his hand, trying to wipe away the tears on her face, but he was powerless.

Li Meili caught his hand that fell in the air, and pulled it close to her face.

Exhausting all his strength, he said to her: "Take care, take care... Take care of yourself!"

"Hmm." With tears streaming down her face, Li Meili nodded repeatedly.

Thinking he was satisfied, Cheng Taihe nodded with a smile and closed his eyes slowly, his hands lost strength little by little, and slowly slid down.

"Old Cheng..." Li Meili called out tentatively, fear gradually occupying her heart. "Old Cheng..."

Cheng Xu and Lin Jing also realized the strangeness, and hurried forward, the instrument beside the bed, the lines on it had gradually become straight.

Cheng Taihe died, and the entire Cheng family was silent in sorrow and pain.

As if unable to accept the fact, Li Meili lay lifeless on the bed as if she had lost her soul. She didn't eat or drink all day long. In the end, there was nothing she could do. Cheng Xu could only ask the doctor to come home and give her glucose injections every day. , to maintain the energy she needs.

The news of Cheng Taihe's death spread quickly, almost the next morning, all the newspapers and magazines reported the news without knowing where it came from.Not surprisingly, the stock price of 'Taihe' dropped several points in a row in the past few days, so while Lin Jing was tired at home, she was also distracted and worried about the company's situation.

Cheng Taihe's funeral was not to be taken seriously at all. Perhaps considering Li Meili's mental condition and the grief of the entire Cheng family at the moment, they were unable to deal with those who came to mourn the funeral. Lin Jing issued a statement on behalf of the Cheng family and declined the offer. Business friends from all walks of life visited and mourned him, and only his close relatives saw him through the last journey.

Cheng Taihe left, and the outside world was gone, but it did have a big impact on the Cheng family.

Lin Jing came back with a tired body, and still had a bunch of documents and reports in her hands that could not be dealt with in the future. The stock price of 'Taihe' was still falling, and she had to think of a solution in a short time to raise the stock price.

"Gulu...gulu..." the stomach protested.

Lin Jing lowered her head and looked at her stomach.Today, a half-day meeting was held, and she was so busy that she didn't even have time for lunch. She raised her hand to check the time, and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Putting down the documents in her hand, Lin Jing decided to solve her own food and clothing problems first, and then talk about work.

He just arrived at the kitchen and was just about to boil water for himself when Mrs. Chen came in behind her with a bowl of cold porridge.Seeing that she was holding bread in her hand and water was still boiling in the pot, she asked, "Young Mistress, haven't you had dinner yet?"

"It's a bit busy in the company." Lin Jing twitched the corners of her mouth and said simply.

Putting down the tray, Mrs. Chen hurried forward and took the bread in her hand, "Let me come, you sit for a while, it will be ready soon."

Lin Jing sat down at the side, glanced at the tray Mrs. Chen was carrying just now, frowned slightly, and asked, "Madam still refuses to eat!"

"Yeah, I didn't move at all. If this goes on, how can people bear it." Sister-in-law Chen said with a soft sigh, her hands kept moving, she skillfully whipped the egg flower, and the fragrance overflowed the entire kitchen.

"Where's the young master?" Cheng Xu can't persuade her, either?
"I've been persuading my wife for a long time, and I just went back to my room." Turning around, looking at Lin Jing, he said, "Master, he also feels uncomfortable, young mistress, you should persuade the young master more when you have time, because of the matter of the master these few days, The young master doesn't even have much appetite, and he lost a lot of weight all of a sudden."

Lin Jing nodded her head, agreeing.

Lin Jing opened the door and came in. The room was pitch black. She reached out and turned on the switch on the wall. The light illuminated the entire room, but she couldn't see the person who was supposed to be in the room. She was thinking about whether Mrs. Chen made a mistake just now. , I saw a somewhat downcast figure sitting on the balcony with his back against the floor-to-ceiling windows.

With a sigh, he put down the things in his hands and walked towards the balcony.

It's late autumn, and the night is as cool as water.

Sit down beside him and look up at the dark night sky.

The night is not beautiful tonight, the thick clouds cover all the starlight and moonlight, leaving only a faint white light around the clouds where the moonlight is hidden somewhere.The night wind was blowing, and it still made people feel cool.

"This kind of night is not suitable for admiring the moon." Without looking at him, Lin Jing said lightly.

"My dad wanted me to take over his company when I grew up, but I fell in love with photography when I was 15 years old. On my birthday that year, he gave me my first camera." Cheng Xu said, calmly talking.

Lin Jing turned her head and looked at him without interjecting, perhaps, he needed a window to vent.

"Doctor Hu said that my father's illness is mostly due to his tiredness. What else could he be tired of? He gave the company most of his life, and the company is everything to him. But in the end, after working hard for half his life, he didn't even have the opportunity to enjoy it No, is it worth it?" Cheng Xu said mockingly.

Lin Jing shook her head and said: "It's actually the same reason, like you like photography, dad and you are the same, you don't understand why he only thinks about the company, just like he never understands why you are obsessed with photography It can only be said that everyone pursues different things, and there is no real sense of right or wrong and worthwhile.”

"But I regret it!" Cheng Xu suddenly turned his head, looked straight at Lin Jing, and said, "I regret it, I regret why I didn't listen to him and learn business to help him, maybe I joined the company earlier, Help him at work, maybe he won't..."

Cheng Xu turned his head, and with the light from the room, Lin Jing saw the slightly red corners of his eyes.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are things we cannot predict. If we can foresee that everyone does not want such things to happen, we will definitely do our best. But we are mortals after all, and we have no ability to predict, so don't blame yourself. This is not Your fault." Lin Jing persuaded.

Cheng Xu twitched the corners of his mouth, that smile was full of loneliness.
