Chapter 311: After breaking off the engagement Mr. Si chased his wife to the crematorium!
Chapter 311: Private Jet to Switzerland
"If that's the case, you need to comfort him more. His hair has turned white."
It wouldn't happen unless he was excessively sad.
Si Yechen knew the pain of losing a loved one. He patted Ou Yan's head and said, "You are his pillar now."
"Yeah, I will take care of him."
...
After the funeral feast, the next day, Ou Yan went to her grandmother's former residence.
The garden, neglected for too long, had most of its flowers and plants withered. Fallen leaves and wilted flowers covered the cobblestone pathway, and with Grandma's departure, everything seemed lifeless.
Ou Yan had the entire villa cleaned inside and out, while she herself went to her grandmother's bedroom. She twisted the wall lamps and the entire wardrobe automatically moved aside, revealing a small hidden room.
Inside the hidden room were all the treasures her grandmother had collected, some precious items Ou Yan had gifted her, some property deeds, bank books, and other belongings under her grandmother's name, as well as collections from her lifetime.
All of it was Ou Yan's dowry.
In the corner, there was also a safe. Ou Yan entered the password, successfully unlocked it, and retrieved what was inside.
It was the jade thumb ring her grandmother had intended to give to Si Yechen, but now... things had changed.
Ou Yan reminisced for a while before opening her backpack and packing everything inside. These were items her Grandma Bai had guarded with her life, and she couldn't let Bai Zhenhai and the others have them.
In the hidden room, Ou Yan also found a large box containing doodles she had drawn since childhood, along with letters written to her grandmother.
In the letters, she expressed her desire to travel the world with her grandmother and provide her with a better life when she grew up...
Seeing these contents, Ou Yan felt a surge of emotion. She hadn't expected that such childish promises would be stored alongside treasures in the hidden room.
In her grandmother's heart, she must have been more precious than any treasure, right?
Thinking like this, Ou Yan remembered the kind Grandma Bai and reminisced about their past life together...
Finally, she put on her backpack, carried the box, restored the wardrobe to its original position, and descended the stairs, handing the box to her subordinate.
"Take it to the Lin residence, to my bedroom."
"Boss, did Grandma Bai leave you such a box of treasures?" The subordinate widened his eyes in disbelief, receiving the box with one hand while sneakily lifting the lid to take a peek with the other. "What... what is this? Drawings made by kindergarten kids?"
The box contained many things, including handicrafts she had given her grandmother as a child, handmade gifts, and more, all well-preserved inside the box.
"Yeah." Ou Yan didn't say much. Instead, she looked reluctantly at everything in the villa. "Remember to change the locks after cleaning."
She couldn't let Bai Muyao have a chance to enter.
"Inform the property management to pay attention to Bai Muyao."
She couldn't let her take advantage!
"That idiot Bai Zhenhai must have come here before. There are traces of rummaging everywhere..." The subordinate was speechless, never expecting such people to exist.
Ou Yan's brows furrowed. Bai Zhenhai didn't even know that there was a secret room behind Grandma's wardrobe...
That was why they couldn't find any treasures when they came here before!
"Boss, did the old lady leave this villa to you too?"
"Yeah."
But if she could, Ou Yan didn't want her grandmother's belongings. She just wanted her grandmother to be alive and well...
After leaving the villa, Ou Yan got into the car and handed the jade thumb ring to Si Yechen. "This is the gift Grandma prepared for the future son-in-law."
Si Yechen hadn't expected Grandma to prepare a gift for him before she passed away, feeling somewhat melancholic.
"Take it." Ou Yan leaned back in her seat, remembering various things from the past, her nose even more sour...
This long summer vacation was coming to an end.
About a week before school started, Ou Yan suddenly received a call.
"Miss Ou Yan, you, you need to come quickly. Mr. Yan is about to do something foolish!! No matter how we persuade him, he won't listen!!!"
After finishing the call with the worried voice on the other end, Si Yechen, who was accompanying her, asked softly, "What happened?"
"I need to go to Switzerland." Ou Yan got up and walked out anxiously. "Grandpa Yan is in trouble."
"I'll go with you."
Si Yechen arranged for a private jet and landed at Yan Bingsong's private estate in the fastest possible time.
The butler, Paul, hurried forward. "Miss Ou Yan, something's wrong with Mr. Yan!"
"Si Yechen, my fiancé." Ou Yan explained concisely and hurried inside. "What happened to Grandpa Yan?"
The butler nodded at Si Yechen and followed Ou Yan's pace, reporting, "Mr. Yan has been refusing to eat, drink, or sleep since he returned from the funeral. He just stares at Madam's photo..."
As Ou Yan entered the hall, many servants immediately bowed and greeted her. It was evident that she had been here before, and the servants respected her greatly.
Ou Yan nodded in acknowledgment. Her long legs stepped into the elevator. "What else?"
The butler pressed the button for the second floor and continued, "Every time you called to check on him, Mr. Yan pretended to be fine, but he was not. He didn't want us to tell you. He just kept insisting that he didn't want to live anymore, that life was meaningless..."
How could this happen??
Ou Yan called him every day, sometimes even on video calls...
"Oh, yes." The butler added, "Every time he video-called, he made sure someone did his makeup to make him look better. He pretended to be cheerful, showed you the flowers and plants in the garden, or let you see the scenery in the estate. With his deliberate hearty laughter, you didn't notice anything unusual!"
Because they were separated by a phone screen, and Mr. Yan deliberately kept his distance from the camera, either pretending to be gardening or showing her the scenery in the estate. Coupled with his deliberately hearty laughter, Ou Yan didn't notice anything strange!
It had been over ten days since Grandma's funeral. Ou Yan only knew that after the funeral, Yan Bingsong had gone to the bureau and beaten up Bai Zhenhai.
Since he wasn't Grandma's direct descendant, beating him up was fine. Ou Yan didn't mind...
Now she realized that Grandpa Yan had not only punished Bai Zhenhai but also made Xu Aiqin suffer. He cared about her every day in their phone calls, instructing her like he was indirectly making his last will and testament...
Before, when she knew that Grandpa Yan was going to live in Switzerland, Ou Yan didn't care much because he had properties in many places, sometimes in France, sometimes in Italy...
But Ou Yan never expected that there was a specific reason for Grandpa Yan to come to Switzerland!
The butler added, "Mr. Yan doesn't eat, drink, and has finally applied for euthanasia..."
In most places, euthanasia was not allowed for housekeepers! ! But in Switzerland, applying for euthanasia was legal, but it had to be personally operated by the individual. If someone else helped, it would be considered murder...
