After a week of mourning, the funeral for Long Yuntian was prepared and held in haste. Not many people liked his grandfather, but Long Jie rather it'd be an intimate ceremony.
Every one of his immediate family showed up in dark colours. The coffin was adorned with white irises and wreaths, just like the vigil back at the main house. A band played their instruments to ward off evil spirits.
Long Jie knew that Long Yuntian wasn't a kind person. He mistreated his sons, loathed his own wife, and yet they still grieved him.
It wasn't a private ceremony, so Long Jie, with Song Luli by his side, recognized that some men from the Dragon society attended, honouring their late leader. And more continued to show up unexpectedly, astonishing him.
