A Farewell for You! (Double Update!)

Inside the hospital, When Chu Guozhong was rushed to the hospital, he was already barely breathing, his life hanging by a thread.

The doctors immediately issued a critical illness notice.

They notified the family that the patient could stop breathing at any moment!

"It's all your fault! You made Dad so angry!"

Chu Anfu accused the other two, looking indignant.

The second son, Chu Anlu, didn't respond to him. He nervously watched the ward. If the old man really died like this, what would happen to his debts?

The youngest daughter intertwined her ten fingers, looking at the ward with a complex expression.

In the ward, Chu Guozhong, lying on the hospital bed, had lost all consciousness. To him, everything in the outside world seemed to be becoming illusory and blurry.

His eyes were narrowed, and a continuous stream of scenes appeared in his mind.

It was a review of his life.

He was born in a remote mountain village. After his parents were killed by the devils, he left the village with the fleeing villagers.

He wandered endlessly, and the hatred for his family and country made him resolutely join the ranks fighting for national survival.

In the army, he met comrades with whom he had shared life and death, fighting bravely on the front lines. It was also in the army that he met her.

She was a comrade and his wife!

From meeting and getting to know each other, to knowing each other deeply, and then to falling in love.

The feelings between them gradually deepened, and they even swore together: to drive all invaders out of Dragon Country and grow old together.

They achieved the former, but the latter, due to difficult childbirth, his wife left him forever.

The war ended, and all the comrades who fought for the country, including himself, received generous treatment and assignments!

Taking a position in the imperial capital was undoubtedly a great opportunity for career development, with a boundless future.

However, his two sons and daughter, who had lost their mother, still needed him to raise them!

So, after several twists and turns.

He gave up the opportunity to go to the imperial capital and stayed in the county town to raise his three children.

He was selfless his entire life. Even after his children grew up, he never thought of remarrying, choosing to live out his days alone.

The eldest son, Chu Anfu, was naturally courageous and intelligent. After graduating from university, he quickly found a stable job and was doing quite well.

The second son, Chu Anlu, was very clever but also arrogant. After repeatedly making mistakes, he chose to drop out of school to start a business. After many years, he was deeply in debt.

The youngest daughter, Chu Anxin, was much more honest. She married an engineer, and after having a son, she found a job in a factory near her home. Her life was plain but steady.

His children each had their own lives.

Every holiday season, they would bring their children home to visit and reunite.

Before the demolition compensation was issued, Chu Guozhong was still enjoying the blessings of old age with his children and grandchildren around him.

But after that blood-red "demolition" character was written, his children's demeanor changed instantly!

In the face of profit, even the closest blood relatives became fragile.

They each tried to find an entry point with Chu Guozhong, wanting to claim the huge demolition compensation. Even when Chu Guozhong wanted to divide it equally among them, they refused, all of them thinking of taking the demolition compensation for themselves.

Faced with his children's selfishness, Chu Guozhong, in a fit of anger, directly donated the three million yuan to a charity organization.

It was his final contribution to the country before his death, hoping that the money would be invested in areas where Dragon Country needed it.

This was the final contribution of a veteran, and it was also a testament to his sincere heart for the country.

His long life flashed by with the images in his mind.

Chu Guozhong smiled bitterly inwardly and closed his eyes peacefully.

This life, it came and went in a hurry.

It seemed like he had done everything, and yet he hadn't had time to do anything.

At the end of his life, he spent ninety-nine yuan to buy funeral services, wondering if they would show up on time.

The emergency room door opened.

A doctor came out with a heavy expression and said helplessly to the three family members:

"We did our best!"

His words echoed in the hospital corridor that night.

"Dad!!"

Chu Anxin was the first to react. She rushed to the bedside and looked at Chu Guozhong, who lay pale on the bed, tears streaming down her face.

The two sons also hurried over.

Seeing this scene, they all felt a pang in their hearts.

"Look at the mess you've made! You've angered Dad to death!"

Chu Anfu furiously cursed his younger brother and sister, accusing them.

"Now that Dad is gone, what about the demolition compensation? Who gets it?"

Chu Anlu opened his mouth, but still asked the question.

Chu Anxin, who had been lying by the hospital bed, immediately changed her demeanor. She stopped crying and said coldly:

"It won't go to you! I took care of Dad the longest, so this money should be mine!"

"Hmph!"

His elder brother, Chu Anfu, snorted and said in a deep voice:

"Dad is gone, and I'm the eldest son in the family. I get to decide who gets this demolition compensation!"

Watching the three siblings argue in front of the old man's body, the doctors and nurses present all shook their heads secretly. What unfilial children!

The attending physician couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted:

"The deceased should be respected! It's not too late to discuss anything later!"

Seeing this, the three could only stop their bickering.

Then, the doctor took out a bullet and handed it to Chu Anfu:

"This is what we removed from the deceased. Besides this bullet, we found several old injuries and bullet marks on his body. Is this old hero a veteran?"

When Chu Guozhong was brought in, he was still wearing an old, worn-out military uniform and a military cap.

"Not really. My dad fought the Japanese. He was just an ordinary veteran!"

Chu Anfu took the bullet casing, which was wrapped in a sealed bag, and said casually.

"If he were an old hero, we wouldn't be living such miserable lives."

Chu Anlu sighed from the side, glanced at the hospital bed again, and asked:

"Did Dad leave any will or personal belongings?"

Chu Anxin quickly felt Chu Guozhong's pockets and found a few bills, not even enough for a hundred yuan. As for bank cards or anything, there were none.

"Those who bled and were wounded during the war, even ordinary veterans, deserve our respect!"

All the doctors and nurses who had tried to save him bowed to Chu Guozhong collectively and observed a moment of silence!

In their eyes, every veteran who participated in the shocking history of that year was a well-deserved hero!

They deserved respect!

"Hurry up and notify relatives and friends!"

At this moment, the most important thing was to hold a funeral for Chu Guozhong.

Respect the deceased and lay them to rest peacefully.

Then, they could discuss inheritance matters.

Meanwhile, Su Chen also received a message from the system.

The funeral target for the first mission, Chu Guozhong, had passed away!

He solemnly put on his black suit, sunglasses, and Bluetooth earpiece, carrying a black umbrella in his hand.

Even through the sunglasses, one could feel his suffocating gaze and oppressive aura!

An aura emanated from within him, giving him an extraordinary presence!

As he walked down the street, Countless passersby turned to look at him.

Whether it was ordinary pedestrians, regular cars, or luxury vehicles worth millions, all were drawn to him. The aura he exuded inspired awe!

Su Chen walked with steady steps towards the funeral venue:

Mr. Chu, allow me to send you off!
