At this moment, Dan Bai spoke,"Ying 'er…Ah Yi…"
His voice was very weak, as if he was already at the end of his rope.
"Yes, Uncle, I'm here."
"Dad, I'm here."
Zhou Yi and Dan Ying quickly squatted down, standing on either side of Dan Bai.
Dan Bai held the hands of the two of them, then handed Dan Ying's hand to Zhou Yi. He then turned his head slightly and said to Zhou Yi," Ah Yi…I'm dying…I'm afraid I can't…Ying 'er's mother passed away early…I've been busy with the affairs of the martial arts club…I owe her a lot since I was young…I can see…you're a good child…I'll leave Ying' er to you in the future…"
Zhou Yi held back his tears and said firmly,"Uncle, don't worry. I won't let Xiao Ying down in this life.”
Hearing this, Dan Bai immediately revealed a gratified smile. Then, he turned to Dan Ying and said," Ying 'er…I'm leaving soon…You and Yi must live a good life in the future…Don't throw a tantrum like a young lady…You must live happily ever after…"
Dan Ying's tears flowed like a fountain. As he sobbed, he agreed,"Okay, Dad, I promise you anything. Please don't go!”
Dan Bai smiled." Silly child…Birth, old age, sickness, and death are human nature…It's just a matter of time…You've endured for so many years…You've also grown up…Moreover, you've found your ideal husband…It's time for me to meet your mother…"
"Dad…please don't say anymore…"
Dan Bai continued," Ying 'er…Ah Yi…After Father leaves…If the Unity Gate can continue to operate, then so be it…If it can't continue, then disband…Don't think about developing it…Also…Don't blame Little Wu…Even if this didn't happen…Father wouldn't be able to hold on for long…On the contrary…if Little Wu can truly comprehend something after this…then I won't have any regrets…"
Zhou Yi and Dan Ying quickly nodded in agreement.
Dan Bai once again revealed a gratified smile. Then, he slowly closed his eyes and passed away.
Outside the emergency room, Dan Ying lay on her father's body and cried heartlessly. She had completely lost her composure.
Zhou Yi suppressed the grief in his heart and first sent the news of Dan Bai's death to the other side. He asked them to set up the mourning hall and prepare to welcome the coffin. Then, he contacted the heads of the various branch libraries and asked them to rush to the main library as soon as possible to jointly preside over the funeral.
Two hours later, Shan Bai's coffin was transported back to He Yi Men. The incense and candle shop that specialized in funeral affairs had already set up the mourning hall. Once the coffin arrived, the funeral was immediately held.
Dan Ying cried until he fainted in the hospital. Zhou Yi was in charge of everything. Because it was his first time handling such a thing, he seemed a little unfamiliar with everything. Fortunately, he was calm and meticulous, so nothing went wrong.
After arranging everything, it was already past five in the afternoon. Zhou Yi specially made a bowl of porridge for Dan Ying.
When Zhou Yi came to the bedroom, Dan Ying had already woken up. Seeing her haggard face, Zhou Yi felt his heart ache. However, at this moment, he could not show any weakness. Even if he had to pretend, he had to pretend to be strong.
Because he was a man and Dan Ying's only reliance, he had to shoulder this burden for Dan Ying.
Coming to the bedside, Zhou Yi held the porridge in one hand and helped Dan Ying up with the other. He said gently,"Xiao Ying, you haven't eaten anything all day. I made you a bowl of porridge. Come, let me feed you."
Dan Ying shook his head.”
"I know you're sad, but how can you not eat?" Before Uncle left, he wanted you to be well. Now that you're like this, if Uncle finds out, how can he rest in peace? Be good and open your mouth."
Hearing this, Dan Yingcai opened his mouth in cooperation. After eating a few mouthfuls, she didn't know if it was because she was touched by the scene or if she remembered something else, but she threw herself into Zhou Yi's arms and started crying. As she cried, she said," Ah Yi, Daddy is gone. You're the only one I have in the future. Don't ever leave me."”
Zhou Yi gently patted her back and said,""Silly girl, don't let your imagination run wild. I will never leave you.”
After a while, Dan Ying's emotions slowly calmed down.
"Knock, knock, knock…"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"What is it?" Zhou Yi immediately asked. Come in and talk."
The door opened with a creak. It was a student. He said,"Master Zhou, the masters of the thirteen branch academies have arrived.”
Ever since Zhou Yi and Dan Ying had established a relationship, his identity had naturally been promoted to " Master ". Although he did not teach boxing, he could convince the public because of his strength.
Hearing this, Zhou Yi first said to Dan Ying,"Xiao Ying, you should rest first. I'll go out and take a look.”After saying that, he stood up and turned to the student."Let's go out and receive them.”
However, the student stammered,""Master Zhou, they seem to have come with ill intentions.”
Zhou Yi frowned when he heard this. He thought of a possibility. Then, she heard him say,"Xiao Ying is not feeling well now. It's not convenient for her to see them. If there's anything, I'll go and tell them."”
At this moment, Dan Ying suddenly forced himself out of bed and said,"Ah Yi, I'll go with you.”
Obviously, she had also thought of the possibility that Zhou Yi had thought of.
Seeing this, Zhou Yi quickly helped her to the bed and said in a slightly blaming tone,"Lie down quickly. You're already like this, and you're still trying to be brave. Don't worry, I'll handle everything.”
After saying that, he gave her a reassuring look before turning around to go to the mourning hall.
When Zhou Yi arrived at the mourning hall, the masters of the thirteen branches had already paid their respects and were sitting on both sides of the mourning hall.
Seeing the Book of Changes come out, the middle-aged man on the first seat on the left shouted,"Ah Yi, where's Dan Ying? Tell her to come out and see me."
This middle-aged man was called Lin Shixiong. He was Dan Bai's junior brother and also the manager of the Shunde District branch.
Zhou Yi cupped his fists at Lin Shixiong and said,""Junior Master Lin, Lil 'Ying is not feeling well and it's not convenient for her to come out. If there's anything, let me talk to everyone.”
As soon as he said this, Wei Changming, the person in charge of the Gaoming District, scolded,"Where did this wild brat come from? What right do you have to talk to us about the family matters of our Unity Sect?”
As soon as Wei Changming took the lead, Zhang Qingyun, the manager of the Sanshui District branch, echoed,"That's right. You haven't even become the son-in-law of the Unity Sect, yet you're already meddling in the matters of the Unity Sect.”
The manager of the Panyu District branch, Li Chenzhou, said,"That's right. Even if you become the son-in-law of my Unity Sect, you have no right to interfere in this matter. Which of the uncles and brothers here is not more senior than you? Which one of them doesn't have more experience than you?"
