Chapter 237 - 225 First Love (Second Update)
Huo Li saw Yi Luowa run in and tearfully said, "She’s dead, sob... I thought I wouldn’t feel sad, but I still can’t help it."
Yi Luowa immediately understood who "she" referred to and hugged Huo Li tightly. "Cry as much as you need. You’ve been forcing a smile these past few days, and even I felt awful for you. But why? How could she suddenly be gone?"
"The police just called—it was suicide."
Yi Luowa pressed her lips together. "Huo Li, what are we going to do? Are you going to handle it? If you want to, I’ll ask Second Uncle to call his connections over there and have them help take care of her funeral arrangements."
"No matter what, she’s still Huo Li’s mother, and her funeral must be handled properly." Yi Weiyang walked in, leaning on his cane. "Huo Li, I’ll take care of everything over there. No matter how heartbroken you are, you need to take care of your health."
Huo Li choked up and nodded. Based on her hatred toward her mother, she thought she’d immediately say not to bother. But now, the words caught in her throat, unable to come out.
Yi Weiyang quickly made the necessary calls, arranged everything, and then explained the details to Huo Li.
Huo Li’s emotions stabilized a bit, but Yi Luowa still didn’t dare leave her side and stayed close to her.
Tong Airui had known Yi Luowa for quite some time, but this was the first time he used the Yi family’s utensils. That evening, Tong Airui dined at the estate, and knowing his slight aversion to germs, Yi Luowa had Aunt Li prepare brand-new tableware and cups for him.
Tong Airui smiled, "Actually, just a new cup is enough."
"Everything’s been prepared for you already. We don’t want you feeling uncomfortable while eating," Yi Luowa said as she sat beside him.
Yi Weiyang glanced up at her. "Did Huo Li eat?"
