After Bankruptcy, the Billionaire Asked Me to Marry Him!-Chapter 272 Are We Going to Die?

The memorial service ended in the afternoon.

After seeing off the last guest, Ye Li rushed back to the hall, only to see her mother cradling her father’s black-and-white portrait as if it were a treasure, continuously thanking Fu Yanci.

"Mom, are you okay?"

Ye Li approached, her eyes filled with concern.

When Li Xueqing had insisted on being discharged from the hospital to rest at home, the doctor had emphasized repeatedly that she must keep her emotions stable and take good care of herself.

Ye Li had thought her mother had been silently enduring a mix of great joy and sadness and had cried for so long in front of her father’s tombstone that morning; her heart had been heavy with worry.

But nothing had happened.

No tears.

No sorrowful expression.

From beginning to end, Li Xueqing maintained a calm demeanor, gently thanking everyone who attended the memorial service, standing upright until the last moment.

Li Xueqing smiled and nodded, "Ah Li, mom is fine, don’t worry!"

Reflecting on it, Li Xueqing felt somewhat ashamed.

Having lived for most of her life, when it came to the crunch, she couldn’t match up to a child like Ah Li!

Fortunately, it was all over. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Brother Shen had passed away, and she needed to live well, as they had promised each other, carrying on with the love they shared.

Someday, they would meet again!

"Let’s go, let’s go home!"

Patting Ye Li’s hand, Li Xueqing walked straight out, holding the portrait.

On the way here, they had ridden in Fu Yanci’s car.

But on the way back, Li Xueqing insisted on using the Ye Family’s Mercedes.

At the same time, she pushed Ye Li towards Fu Yanci, "Ah Li, go with Yanci!"

Ye Li wanted to say she would stay with her mother, but she caught the look Li Xueqing gave her.

Startled for a moment, Ye Li immediately understood.

Perhaps it didn’t matter to Fu Yanci, but it did to Li Xueqing.

Even though Ye Mushen was his father-in-law, after all, the man had passed away, and it was better not to bring such items into his car.

It was bad luck.

Feeling both heartache and helplessness, Ye Li looked back at Fu Yanci and followed him into the car.

Just as on their arrival, the Maybach led the way followed by the convoy.

The road out of the funeral home twisted up the mountain path.

On one side of the road was a sheer cliff, and on the other side was a view of the murky woods and further off, the horizon of clouds.

The clouds drifted freely in the blue sky, changing at will, the scenery was magnificent, but at this moment, Ye Li had no mood to appreciate it.

When the car suddenly sped up, Ye Li almost immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Fu Yanci, slow down..."

Before she could finish speaking, seeing the unprecedented gravity on the man’s face, Ye Li’s heartbeat sped up, "Fu Yanci?"

"Ah Li..."

Fu Yanci spoke in a deep voice, "Make a call to mom, say I have some urgent business, and we will come back later."

"Fu Yanci, I..."

"Ah Li!"

Ye Li was interrupted by Fu Yanci before she could finish speaking.

They had been together since early morning, and Fu Yanci hadn’t even received a phone call, and if anyone came looking for him, she had been by his side.

He had no business, Ye Li knew better than anyone.

Her instincts told her, something had happened.

"Mom..."

Her hand trembled a few times before she managed to dial Li Xueqing’s number, Ye Li forced herself to speak calmly, "I’m going with Fu Yanci to handle some business, we’ll be home late!... Okay, I will tell him to slow down. Mom, I am hanging up now!"

After ending the call, Ye Li gripped the seatbelt tightly, looking at the speeding vehicle that had clearly exceeded the speed limit, her voice trembling, "Fu Yanci...are we, are we..."

The words "are we going to die" reached her lips when Ye Li abruptly changed what she was going to say, "We won’t have an accident, right?"

"Ah Li..."

A fleeting gleam passed through the depths of his inscrutable eyes as Fu Yanci fixed his gaze on the successive sharp turns ahead, his voice tinged with a laugh, "What if we really are going to die?"

Ye Li’s pupils dilated, her eyes widening.
