Chapter 711: Request
Ever since Zhou Hao died, Xu Ling had always come to the Zhou family. Be it in public or in private, she always called Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun her parents. This made the Xu family very helpless when they heard this.
To be honest, it was their Xu family’s fortune to have a son-in-law like Zhou Hao.
Under normal circumstances, they would love for Xu Ling to marry Zhou Hao.
However, things were different now. In the end, Zhou Hao was already dead and could not be revived. However, Xu Ling was still alive and beautiful. Be it her cultivation, family matters, or even her appearance, they were all top-notch.
Moreover, she was already at the age where she should start a family. Therefore, the Xu family could not let Xu Ling continue like this.
Moreover, the Xu family could tell what Xu Ling was thinking. This girl was very affectionate and probably had long treated Zhou Hao as her husband and Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun as her in-laws.
After Zhou Hao died, she even treated herself as a widow!
As Xu Ling’s cousin, Xu Chang was actually very helpless. He really admired Zhou Hao and was very willing to congratulate his sister.
However, things did not go according to plan!
“Sister, are you in Qu City? When will you be back?” Xu Chang’s tone was very good as he asked with a smile.
“In two days. I want to accompany Dad and Mom for a walk,” Xu Ling said naturally.
Hearing this, Xu Chang sighed and thought for a moment before saying.
“Sister, actually, it’s really inhumane for me to say this, but I still have to say it. Zhou Hao is dead, but you’re still alive. You two aren’t married and haven’t registered your marriage. At most, you two are boyfriend and girlfriend. Now that he’s dead, you can’t just throw your life away like this. You still have a long life ahead of you.”
Xu Chang was speaking from a brother’s perspective. There was actually nothing wrong with what he said.
No brother would allow his sister to delay his marriage because of a boyfriend.
However, Xu Ling said, “Brother, I know, but… this is my choice. I don’t think I can love anyone else in my life.”
“I know, Sister, but… if you were alone, I wouldn’t say anything. However… you also know that our Xu family is filled with helplessness. For example, I, your brother, haven’t married the woman I like.”
Xu Chang wanted to persuade his sister through his matter.
However, Xu Ling said directly, “Brother, I’m not you.”
“I… I know… Sister, Grandpa wants to see you tomorrow, so… you should come back.”
Xu Chang took a deep breath and immediately said.
Xu Ling ignored him and hung up.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she still wiped them away lightly and pretended to be fine as she returned to the dining table.
Wang Shuyun could tell at a glance that the Xu family had naturally heard of Xu Ling’s matter. Therefore, she understood.
After eating and cleaning up, Wang Shuyun looked at Xu Ling and said, “Lingling, your uncle and I are going to visit our cousin’s house tomorrow. We won’t be at home for the next two days. You should go back. Oh, right, I’ll get Zhang Yi to send us there. You’re busy with work. Come and visit us when we return.”
After Wang Shuyun finished speaking, Xu Ling was stunned for a moment.
“Didn’t we agree to go sightseeing tomorrow?”
“Yes, but Cousin is sick.” Wang Shuyun looked at Zhou Xueguo, who immediately understood.
“I see. Then I’ll accompany you guys. What if you need any help?” Xu Ling smiled.
“There isn’t much for you to help. We’re all ordinary people. Moreover, you’re an inspector. Since you’re busy with work, don’t waste your time here. Go do your work. We’ll also pack our things and leave.”
Wang Shuyun said directly. Xu Ling took a deep breath and did not say anything before turning to leave.
Xu Ling had just left when Wang Shuyun cried. This scene stunned Zhang Yi, Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and Fang Yu.
“Godmother, what’s wrong?” Yuan Chengma said.
Wang Shuyun wiped her tears and looked at Yun Yan, Fang Yu, Zhang Yi, and Yuan Cheng.
“I want you to do me a favor.”
After saying this, they were stunned for a moment and nodded.
“What? Tell us, how can we help you?”
Wang Shuyun took a deep breath. “We want to move to another place. We don’t want to live here anymore. Moreover, we don’t want Ling Ling to know.”
With just one sentence, they understood!
“Godmother, you…”
Yuan Cheng and Zhang Yi wanted to say something, but they did not open their mouths.
On the other hand, Yun Yan and Fang Yun sighed.
Wang Shuyun looked at them and said happily, “You’re all good children. We’re really happy to have you around. You’re Zhou Hao’s good friend and Xu Ling’s good friend. You… need to help me persuade Xu Ling. No matter what, my son is already…”
At this point, Wang Shuyun was already sobbing. Yuan Cheng and the others’ eyes were red and they were very sad.
“Xu Ling is a good girl. I can’t bear to see such a good girl lose her life for my son. We’ve never treated her as an outsider and treat her as our own daughter. Tell me, if you had a child, would you let your daughter be a widow for the rest of her life for the sake of a dead person?”
“We’ve talked to Xu Ling about this many times. Every time, she would change the topic. If we sounded too serious, she would cry, and our hearts would soften. However, I know that what we’re doing is wrong. That’s why… I want to move to somewhere else.”
Wang Shuyun had put in a lot of effort. Yun Yan, Fang Yu, and the others also knew and understood.
“Auntie, don’t worry. We understand. We’ll help you with this.”
Yun Yan and Fang Yu looked at each other and understood.
Xu Ling was their friend, and so was Zhou Hao. Although it was indeed unfair to Zhou Hao, it was the truth.
The dead could not be revived.
At night, they packed their bags and left overnight.
They had arrived at the Hundred City, the former Red Cliff Abyss!
Although this place used to be filled with martial artists and bad guys from all over, under the lead of Zhou Hao and the others, as well as the pressure of Yuan Cheng and Zhang Yi, this place had long become a comfortable place.
Moreover, the people here all treated Zhou Hao as their idol. Knowing that Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun were Zhou Hao’s parents, they naturally took good care of them!
In particular, the current commander of the Hundred City Commander Residence was even more polite.
Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun also sighed with emotion when they arrived.
However, Xu Ling did not know any of this.
At the same time, the experts of the European Union also secretly arrived at Qu City!
They even arrived at the Battle God Battalion residential area!
However, when they secretly sneaked into Zhou Hao’s house at night, they realized that the place was already empty!
