Chapter 853: The Will! Gu Mang Has To Be Present!

Editor: Atlas Studios

At today’s funeral, there were popular people from the business sectors of various countries and well-known politicians from all over the world. Huo Zhi was a familiar face to most politicians.

They all looked over at the man as he walked through the crowd.

Any Elder from the Elders’ Association could have served as Jijing Island’s representative at Matriarch Lu’s funeral. Given Huo Zhi’s status, there was no need for him to attend in person.

So for those few seconds, the entire hall was dead silent as everyone looked at Huo Zhi.

Lu Chengzhou stood beside the crystal coffin and bowed to express his gratitude to the guests who had come to pay respects. When he sensed that the atmosphere had changed, he turned to look at the crowd.

He looked in the direction of the entrance.

Huo Zhi was at the front. There was a young boy beside him and a few elders behind him.

"Is Gu Mang not here?" Qin Fang scanned the faces and asked curiously.

When He Yidu looked over, his anxious heart calmed down and he nodded. "I think so."

Gu Mang likely put in a lot of effort to remove herself from Brother Cheng’s memory. Surely, she did not want anything to go wrong.

Lu Chengzhou was dressed in a black suit and he was wearing a black glove on his right hand. There was a red dot on the glove.

In the middle of the hall some people were offering condolences on a mat near Old Madam’s coffin. They were supposed to step forward to say a few words to Lu Chengzhou and Lu Zhan.

Suddenly, everyone went quiet. Everyone’s eyes were on Huo Zhi.

The people offering condolence stepped to the side and made way for Huo Zhi and his entourage. Huo Zhi and the group walked over. They bowed three times at the crystal coffin respectfully. When Gu Si looked up, he glanced at Lu Chengzhou and their eyes met for a second.

Lu Chengzhou had no reaction at all. His eyes looked distant.

Gu Si was speechless.

F*ck! Gu Si cursed inwardly.

His sister had told him that she had erased Lu Chengzhou’s memory but seeing it for himself was way more thrilling than hearing it from her.

For a moment, he thought about saying, "Damn, my sister’s skills are so impressive! She even hypnotized the big boss of Red Flame" but decided against it.

Ye Junci stood not far from the coffin and when she saw that Gu Mang did not come, she looked at Lu Zhan. The two of them relaxed their tense nerves.

After Huo Zhi bowed, he stood up straight and walked towards Lu Chengzhou and Lu Zhan. "Commander Lu, Young Master Lu, my deepest sympathies to you and your family."

Lu Zhan shook hands with Huo Zhi politely.

Huo Zhi approached Lu Chengzhou. Lu Chengzhou slanted his body slightly and glanced at Huo Zhi’s hand nonchalantly.

When the others saw that Lu Chengzhou did not lift his hand, they were a little confused.

After a long pause, Lu Chengzhou looked up with a calm expression. He shook his hand lightly and perfunctorily. "Thank you."

When Lu Chengzhou retracted his hand, he glanced at Gu Si. "Is Mr. Huo married now?"

Gu Si was speechless. What the f*ck?

When Huo Zhi heard this, he was shocked. When he realized who Lu Chengzhou was talking about, he answered politely, "This is the younger brother of my fiancée, the Young Master of the Gu family."

Huo Zhi stared firmly into Lu Chengzhou’s eyes as he spoke. Something seemed to be brewing deep inside Lu Chengzhou’s eyes.

Lu Chengzhou raised his eyebrow slightly as if he were not very interested. "Is that so?"

Gu Si was speechless.

Huo Zhi nodded politely. "I hope that Young Master Lu will be able to attend my wedding later."

Lu Chengzhou answered calmly, "If I am free."

Lu Zhan looked at the two of them, hoping no trouble would occur. He said, "Mr. Huo, please move to the side and have some rest."

Huo Zhi nodded slightly. "Alright."

The group from Jijing Island turned and walked off the mat in the middle of the hall.

Gu Si stuck both hands in his pocket and softened his voice as he walked over to the side. His tone was very cold. "My sister does not acknowledge the marriage agreement. Stop spreading lies."

Huo Zhi looked down at him. "What? Are you still thinking of calling Lu Chengzhou your brother-in-law?"

The lawyer team?

Lu Chengzhou had long taken over Red Scorpion and various big research institutes. The main assets under Old Madam Lu’s name was half of the Lu family’s wealth as well as the Lu Military Group. The military industry group accounted for almost one-third of the family’s assets.

Everyone would likely fight over her will. But why would such an important thing be broadcast in front of everyone?
