To attend the funeral today, Wei Yumeng wore a black dress, and even her makeup was much simpler.
Even though almost a week had passed, Wei Yumeng still felt that everything had happened too quickly.
Although in the past she had caused a lot of trouble because of Wen Xueshan, even to the point of lawsuits.
However, as Wen Xueshan gradually corrected herself, Wei Yumeng sincerely hoped that things would continue like this.
No matter how wicked a person is, there is always an opportunity to reform.
She sighed softly, perhaps if Wen Xueshan had let go of her obsession with Zhan Mohan, everything would have been different.
Perhaps she should have been angry at being constantly played by Wen Xueshan, but now that Wen Xueshan was gone, she had no anger at all.
Originally, she should have appeared with Zhan Mohan, but because Zhan Mohan was in a sensitive position due to Wen Xueshan's death, she had to appear with Mu Linjing.
"Yumeng, to be honest, I really disliked her before, but I never wished for her death."
Mu Linjing said, her eyes also showing a hint of sadness, "Why did she choose death? Was there anything that couldn't be resolved?"
This was also a question she couldn't comprehend. As long as a person is alive, they have the capital to solve problems, but after death, there is nothing left.
Wei Yumeng shook her head. Perhaps only Wen Xueshan herself knew the reason.
However, the fact that she chose to commit suicide with her unborn child was enough to show how desperate she was towards the world at that time.
Wei Yumeng did not approve of suicide, but if it was Wen Xueshan's choice at that time, it did indeed show courage, as how many people could easily give up their lives.
If Wen Xueshan truly believed that doing so would bring her release, perhaps it was not entirely a bad thing.
As the funeral music played, Wen Xueshan's family offered prayers for her, and everyone present was immersed in sadness.
Through the narrator's account, Wen Xueshan's life was reviewed in everyone's minds.
It also further reminded everyone that the deceased is at peace.
The farewell ceremony lasted for a whole day. As evening approached, people attending the funeral one by one departed, and the entire funeral hall became empty.
The setting sun shone obliquely through the windows and the main door, illuminating the place where Wen Xueshan lay.
Those rays of light were like a path to heaven, and Wen Xueshan was now on that path.
Qiu Zhun still stood by the coffin, staring blankly at Wen Xueshan's appearance.
Thanks to the makeup artist's skill, Wen Xueshan looked as if she were merely asleep, so peaceful.
"Mr. Qiu, please accept my condolences," Wei Yumeng said, patting Qiu Zhun's shoulder as if to comfort him.
Mu Linjing also said, "I don't think Wen Xueshan would want to see you like this."
Qiu Zhun finally reacted a little, "Miss Wei, am I a failure as a boyfriend?"
"It's not like that, you've done very well."
Wei Yumeng truly believed so. Among all the men she knew, Qiu Zhun was undoubtedly excellent.
"But if I were truly good enough, how could she have left me?" Qiu Zhun covered his face with his hands, "I know there were many misunderstandings between us before, and I've been trying very hard to make amends. I've even planned our future."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on Qiu Zhun's face. He recalled the time they spent together envisioning their future.
"Although we had different opinions at first, after discussion, our ideas were actually the same, we just made different choices. I know we are very similar in many ways, and precisely because of this, I decided she was my choice for life."
Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing said nothing, only watching Qiu Zhun quietly.
Wen Xueshan and Qiu Zhun's journey had indeed been full of twists and turns, from her selfish plan to later turning the act into reality, Qiu Zhun's misunderstandings, and then their reunion and understanding.
No matter who learned of their past, they would feel how hard-won their relationship was.
Qiu Zhun reached out and held Wen Xueshan's now-cold hand in the coffin, "If I could, I would never want to let you go, but why did you leave before me? Xueshan, do you know that the ones left behind are the most miserable?"
Just then, Qiu Zhun suddenly felt Wen Xueshan's hand move. He looked up in surprise to see Wen Xueshan looking at him as usual.
"Ajun, why are you crying?"
"Xueshan..."
Just as he reached out to touch Wen Xueshan's cheek, everything in front of him vanished.
It was all just his hallucination.
Wei Yumeng sighed, "Mr. Qiu, although I am also very sad about this matter, people must always look forward. There are still many things you should do in the future. Perhaps Miss Wen could not fulfill your future together, but you can still fulfill it for her."
Although according to Zhan Mohan, Wen Xueshan might not have been sure of her feelings for Qiu Zhun until the last moment.
Still, Wei Yumeng preferred to believe that Wen Xueshan still loved Qiu Zhun, even if she wasn't aware of it.
Wei Yumeng no longer disturbed Qiu Zhun. Instead, she winked at Mu Linjing, and the two of them left, leaving time and space for the widower.
"What will happen to him in the future?" Mu Linjing was a little worried.
She had heard of many people who chose to follow their lovers in death after their passing.
Seeing Qiu Zhun's dejected appearance, it wouldn't be surprising if he made such a choice.
Wei Yumeng remained silent for a while and finally shook her head, "I don't know either. But no matter what choice he makes, what path he takes, I will support him, because it must be the result of his careful consideration."
However, she also hoped that Qiu Zhun would heed her words and not truly follow Wen Xueshan to the grave.
At this moment, Qiu Zhun was the only one left in the funeral hall.
Qiu Zhun no longer had to suppress his grief. Finally, holding Wen Xueshan's hand, he wept bitterly.
He couldn't remember how many years it had been since he cried, but this time he truly felt heartbreak, even wishing he could leave this world with Wen Xueshan.
He now truly regretted it. Why didn't he cherish the time spent with Wen Xueshan?
Why didn't he discover the problem earlier?
Why wasn't he the one by her side in Wen Xueshan's final moments?
If one of them had to leave first, he would rather it be himself.
No matter how much he thought about it, it was all in vain. Their love had long since turned into bubbles and gradually disappeared into the torrent of time.
But Qiu Zhun was certain that even if the whole world forgot their past, he would not. He would keep this love in his heart forever until his life's end.
