Chapter 355: Chapter 355 Can’t Let Emotions Run Wild_1

In my memory, Gu Yuanzhou utterly despised the Song Family, wishing that all of them would die.

How could he possibly leave all of his inheritance to me?

Faced with my doubts, Zhou Chenming gave a very certain answer.

“There’s no mistake, how could there be a mistake in this matter? I am a professional lawyer, you should trust my professional integrity!”

“If I remember correctly, Gu Yuanzhou also has an aunt, and she is the lawful heir.”

“Logically, yes, but his aunt became a nun. I’ve talked to her as well; she doesn’t accept any property and just wants us to hand over Gu Yuanzhou’s ashes to her.”

I was still hesitating…

I felt like this inheritance was a kind of endowment.

It was deliberately left to me by Gu Yuanzhou, with the purpose of making me remember him for a lifetime.

I actually didn’t want it.

But Zhou Chenming persuaded me, saying,

“The compensation for the victims has already been settled. If you don’t want these assets, they will be confiscated by the state.”

“It doesn’t matter, just let them confiscate it then.”

“But you need to think this through. Included here is Maple Mansion, Zhenyi Company, shares in Huaxin Group, and that old house of the Song Family. Do you really not want them? If you don’t, they will be taken over by others.”

This reminder from Zhou Chenming instantly sobered me up.

Yeah, why wouldn’t I want them?

Zhenyi Company and the Maple Mansion, along with most of the assets, were post-marital property shared between me and Gu Yuanzhou.

He’s gone now, and these originally should be inherited by me.

What’s more, Huaxin Group and the Song Mansion are both properties of the Song Family; only if they come into my hands can I return them to my aunt.

With this in mind, I signed my name on the documents without any hesitation.

After the signature, Zhou Chenming finally let out a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

“The task is finally completed! It’s a great success! In a few days, some legal documents will be sent to you by mail.”

“Oh, okay!”

Zhou Chenming packed up the documents and when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around to look at me.

“Gu Yuanzhou’s ashes will be sent to his aunt at the temple; do you want to attend the funeral?”

“No!”

I refused him coldly.

Zhou Chenming shook his head and sighed before finally leaving.

A couple of days passed, and the documents from Zhou Chenming slowly arrived…

Including some property deeds, share certificates, various asset proofs, and so on.

I currently don’t have the energy to take over Zhenyi Company and have locked all of these documents away in a drawer.

Over the weekend, it was Jian Jing’s daughter’s one-month celebration.

Wenya and I attended together.

Perhaps because she had given birth to a daughter, Jian Jing’s in-laws did not seem very pleased.

While accepting blessings from the guests, the old lady kept emphasizing,

“Alas, it’s a girl, a loss-making commodity!”

Jian Jing bowed her head to sip her soup, not uttering a word.

Wenya couldn’t help but become annoyed,

“Dammit, she’s a woman herself; why does she look down on girls? Isn’t she a loss-making commodity herself? Really, why must women make life difficult for one another.”

I stopped her and glanced at Jian Jing.

Sitting beside us, Jian Jing didn’t speak, but her eyes were full of despair.

Wenya then let out a helpless sigh.
