President Chap's Beloved. 252


Now they have finished their dinner and are reunited in the living room. Yuwen had slept as well as Alvis. While the three children were still awake, playing together with Kak Abi and Evelin.


Grandpa Gong had dinner in his room accompanied by the children earlier. Now, the man is asleep.


"So, Lia, what's your next plan?"david asked seriously. And that question is certainly not far from Camelia's job. And Camelia has long been a vacuum from the entertainment industry. Many are looking forward to their comeback.


Andrean glanced at a glance. Honestly, he also wanted to hear it because they had not discussed this before. To be honest, Andrean would rather have Camelia at home, or if he wanted to work, just be the leader of Sirius Entertainment. Caring for a good mother and wife, that's all Andrean hopes for. But, back again to the personality of Camelia who does not want to be restrained about work problems.


Being an artist has become an aspiration. He couldn't lock Camelia in a cage. It's just, yes .. His name is an artist must be acting right? Despite acting, Andrean could not guarantee himself to not be jealous. Really, he started to get dizzy and annoyed himself thinking about it.


Camelia smiled. "I haven't thought about it yet, Brother," Camelia answered honestly because she had just re-adapted to life being a wife and mother of four. Not to mention taking care of the household, it's a tough job.


"However, I will not retire from the entertainment industry" Camelia replied giving a decision. Andrean sighed softly. He had guessed. Which might have left the dream. After all, there was no reason to leave him.


"And one more thing, I will return to acting only if the script is good" Camelia said. "It's likely that in the near future I'll be making a comeback with a photo shoot."


The entertainment industry is not just cinema. There are many fields.


"All of you are discussed here" said David who saw Kak Abi want to say something.


"Actually from the D*ior brand has repeatedly asked when Lia can do a photo shoot. Given, it's been a long time that magazines and their catalogs are not filled with Camelia. The plan, for the fall, was to shoot for the magazine's front cover" Kak Abi said.


"For the script problem, so far there are many good manuscripts that have been rejected because Lia wants an ancient drama script, not the present," added Kak Abi.


"Why do you want a script like that, Lia?"asked David curiously.


"Maybe from her attractive and beautiful costume. Then from the background and also the characters, and most of the ancient drama is the genre of wuxia. I want to play a goddess who faces many trials and obstacles to be able to sit in the top row. Maybe that's the reason. And to be honest, it's been my dream ever since I entered acting. Because the drama with the background of the kingdom, the goddess god, or martial arts is very challenging and interesting" explained Camelia.


Lina who heard it, her eyes glazed over. She recalled, Camelia often said her wish. Before, before everything fell apart. However, it is not something to be remembered and regretted. That time, it's over. Now is the moment of success!


"Well if so. It's up to you" said David. David also could not command Camelia at will. Because at Glory Entertainment, know if Chris has shares that include the majority stake which has now been renamed Camelia. That is, Camelia is also one of the company's board of directors.


"Sir." Suddenly Toby came with a serious face.


"What's wrong?"ask Andrean.


"The Great Lord asked the whole family to his room" Toby told him.


Andrean frowned in wonder. What was it that Grandpa Gong suddenly called them to his room?


The uncomfortable feeling came instantly. "We stayed for a while" said Andrean, inviting his son and wife to immediately fulfill the call.


With a feeling of unease, Andrean entered Grandpa Gong's room. There, on his bed, Grandpa Gong sat leaning on the head of the bed. A warm smile greeted the little family.


"Grandfather calls us all?"asked Andrean softly, sitting next to Grandpa Gong. The children got into bed and sat quietly. They also wondered why they were called out so suddenly.


"My granddaughter, Rean," Grandpa Gong called. His voice sounded weak. "I feel like my responsibility is done. I've fulfilled your parents' request, I've also ensured the Gong family's survival. This old man can leave quietly," Grandpa Gong said grudgingly.


"Grandfather? What is Grandpa talking about? Brother will live long!"


"Hahaha .. My body is old. My soul must rest from this world. My story will be over soon my grandson."


"Grandfather." The feeling is getting uncomfortable. Camelia who was standing beside Andrean spoke up. "Is that what makes you uncomfortable, Grandpa? Just tell us. But, please don't say things that stink away, Grandpa."


"Yes, Grandpa. Is Grandpa tired of playing with us? Are we being too naughty and noisy? Our grandfather's gonna change it, huh?" Lucas added.


"I'm very willing. Very willing. Who does not want to be with their children and grandchildren, their great-grandchildren longer. But, it seems that my age won't be long."


All bowed to Grandpa Gong's reply. "Grandfather, hiks .. hiks …." Crystal was the first to cry.


"My responsibility is done, Rean. In this life, there are no more burdens and regrets. I can report and stand up straight when facing your ancestors and parents." Grandpa Gong rubbed Andrean's back which was still down.


"My old day was also very happy. Dream achieved. I'm so happy."


Grandpa Gong was silent for a moment to catch his breath.


"Grandfather." The call was held. Grandpa Gong smiled gently. His eyes radiated constancy, just like his words.


"My daughter-in-law's granddaughter, Lia."


"Yes, Grandpa." Camelia's approaching. Grasping Grandpa Gong's fingers. "thank you. My granddaughter is so lucky to have you as a wife. Please take care of him. Be the place to go home. Be the mediator and silencer of his anger, be the place to lean if he is tired and slumped. Lia, you're everything to Andrean. This old grandfather please, accompany him to the end. Hah, maybe this request is outrageous, I really care and care about my grandson."


"Lia, on this occasion anyway, I want to say, thank you, for being my daughter-in-law's granddaughter. I'm very happy. Thank you also for giving the successor to the Gong family."


"Grandfather, I'll do it. You don't have to worry and worry about Rean" Camelia replied gently with eyes that started to turn red but did not cry.


"Grandpa, hiks .. don't go, hiks, Crystal dear Grandpa." Crystal hugged Grandpa Gong. As if I understood the meaning of this conversation. His great-grandfather .. will go and never come back.


Lucas and Liam are still down. Raising his head when summoned by Grandpa Gong.


"My great-grandfather was very happy and happy. My old days were not lonely. You are the precious pearls of the Gong family. Be the pride of the family. Fly through the clouds. Restu Grandpa great-grandfather is with you."


"Lucas, Liam, Crystal, sorry for not being able to accompany you to the end. Grandpa loves you guys so much. And Yuwen, Yuwen, educate him well. Tell him, his great-grandfather loves him very much."


"Grandfather, you take it easy. I will take good care of the Gong family. J-if Grandpa is going to leave, K-Grandpa can leave quietly," replied Andrean with a slight stammer.


"Thank God. I'm more relieved." Grandpa Gong sighed.


"I'm very happy." Grandpa Gong's tears just flowed.


Andrean sat down beside the bed.  Grandpa Gong gently rubbed Andrean's head. Crystal's crying is becoming. Lucas and Liam couldn't hold back their cries anymore.


That night, tinged with an atmosphere of grief that was coming soon. "Go in peace, Grandpa" said Camelia, tears streaming down her eyes.


"Good way, Grandpa." Andrean said with trembling.


Slowly, Grandpa Gong closed his eyes. Simultaneously, his life slowly left his body. Go for a long journey and never come back.


That cry, broke when Grandpa Gong was already completely gone for good. Toby who witnessed that, also could not stem his tears.


"GRANDFATHER!!"

David looked at Lina with a disquieted feeling. His intention was to come to visit and visit the ancestors, not to attend the funerals of the family members they visited!


Grandpa Gong's cremation ceremony was held in Shanghai. Because, that's where the family ancestral hall is located.


The Gong family was very sad for that. A white mourning flag was placed on each side of the house. The Gong Family's old residence was silent because of the grief.


After cremation, his ashes were kept in the family ash depository that had preceded them. And the sign will be placed in the ancestral hall, along with other signage.


The funeral was attended by all members of the Gong family. Also Mr and Mrs Liang. Abi's sister, Evelin, Toby, Hans, Silvia, Lie and of course Lina and David.


The funeral was over. Andrean who has become the head of the family does not need to be busy taking care of the issue of leadership inheritance anymore.


"Cry if you want to cry, Rean," Camelia told her husband standing on the balcony. In his hand was a glass of alcoholic beverages. "Rather than you drunk better share your grief with me." Camelia hugged Andrean from behind.


"I know, you're very lost because of Grandpa's departure. He is the one who raised you, taught you many things, and he loves you very much. Andrean, cry. It will not make you weak, it will be relieved because the burden in your heart is gone along with the tears that fall."


"Lia …." Andrean put down his glass. Turn around and drown her face in Camelia's arms. His shoulders shook and slowly sounded a sob. Camelia rubbed gently on Andrean's shoulder.


"Crying, Rean. Everything's gonna be okay."


"Hiks, Lia .. hiks …."
