There was a thunderous sound, and everyone in the hall was shocked.
The old man on the stage was frightened. At that time, all the attention of the audience was on him, and he was concentrating on witnessing. Unexpectedly, a thunder struck down with a "click". If the person was rashly concentrated, he would be killed. The plan was the most nerve-wracking, so the old man shivered a little, then his legs went weak and he was carried directly on the stage.
"Whoa!" Dozens of eyes returned to the stage from the window. The banquet hall was silent, but many people's hearts went "bang, bang". This explosion of thunder once again stirred up people's imagination.
The first one to go up suffered a heart attack, and the second one to go up was struck by lightning. Can't we witness this engagement?
Shen Tianchang frowned, and his heart skipped a beat. Ordinary people might think this was a coincidence, but people who are exposed to certain things would not simply think that a coincidence would be such a coincidence. Everything in the world has cause and effect, especially... There are too many things involved in the union of the Kong and Shen families. The thousand-year foundation of the Kong family and the Shen family's vast wealth. Do today's successive twists and turns mean that this marriage is not suitable at all?
Mr. Kong Da was furious, stood up with a black face, and said: "I'll go and prove it myself. I'll see if there are any other oddities that will pop up."
Kong Dejing's expression suddenly changed. Xiang Que's methods could be concealed from most people, but if Mr. Kong Da showed up in person, it would be difficult for him to conceal anything he did.
At this time, Shen Linfeng quickly took two steps forward and said softly: "Mr. Kong Da, please be patient. I think we can no longer brave the wind for today's affairs... People's words are scary."
Shen Tianchang also stood up and said meaningfully: "Lin Feng is right, we have to discuss some things in the long term."
Mr. Kong Da put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "We have reached this point. It is a step-by-step matter for the two families to become in-laws. What else should be discussed in the long term, and what is going against the wind?"
At this time, a person quickly walked into the banquet hall and came to Mr. Kong Da's side and whispered: "Deacon, today's events have been spread outside Qufu."
"What spread?"
"It is said outside that Saint Kong did not want to see the marriage of the two families and became angry. Many elderly people in Qufu took to the streets, and many people went to the saint's tomb, saying that we had offended the wrath of heaven."
"You bastard, you are simply deceiving the public with your lies!"
Shen Tianchang sighed and said: "Mr. Kong Da, let me think about it in the long term. It's just an engagement party anyway. Don't take it seriously. Let's go back and discuss it to see what went wrong or whether someone is here." Making trouble, or..."
Shen Tianchang didn't say the last sentence, but Shen Linfeng finished it for him: "Maybe Miss Kong and I are not suitable for each other?"
If the two families are forcing this engagement banquet to go ahead, then it doesn't matter if there are any mistakes in the future. Mr. Kong Da will naturally be able to support him. But at this time, it is obvious that the Shen family father and son have given up, and Mr. Kong Da demands again. That would be a bit overwhelming, and might even cause a crack in the harmony between the two families.
"It's just an engagement party. It doesn't matter. If it's just a coincidence or someone tampered with something, after we find out, the wedding can still be held as usual, and the rumors will naturally be self-defeating." Shen Linfeng As a party involved, I discussed it again with Mr. Kong Da in a tone that left no room for doubt.
The twists and turns of this engagement banquet will spread throughout the streets and alleys of Qufu tomorrow. Mr. Kong Da is afraid that if there is a delay, rumors will fly all over the sky. If it reaches the ears of the head of the Kong family, he, the chief deacon, will definitely be detained. A hat that doesn't work well.
He seemed to be forcing the engagement party to continue, but unfortunately, the attitude of the Shen family and his son was too determined.
Mr. Kong Da said: "The banquet will be held as scheduled. Let's put aside the witnessing part for now."
Shen Linfeng and Kong Dejing took a long breath at the same time, this step was a bit risky.
Mr. Kong Da left the banquet hall directly, went downstairs to the hotel and said to the people following him: "From now on, let me check everything in the past few days carefully. No detail can be missed. This I definitely don’t believe that there was no one behind the incident. Shen Linfeng and Kong Dejing’s horoscopes, five elements, and zodiac signs have all been calculated. Although they are not a perfect match, they are certainly not to the point of anger. , I have never heard that an engagement can cause so many twists and turns. Find out for me who is the black hand behind the scenes. Is this against my Kong family?"
"Yes, Archdeacon, we will arrange someone right away."
At ten o'clock in the evening, the engagement banquet was over. The streets of Qufu were especially lively tonight. Many people were awake. Several episodes of the Kong family's engagement became the subject of street chat, especially the thunderous sound that made the entire family live. Everyone in Qufu heard it.
The weather has been very good these days, and the stars are still twinkling when it gets dark at night. The burst of thunder came so unexpectedly that many people thought it was a warning that Saint Kong was dissatisfied with the Kong family's marriage.
A coincidence can be said to be a coincidence, but from the incident before the engagement party to Secretary Kong's illness and the final thunder, these coincidences are all put together one after another. Who can say that this is a coincidence?
Outside the hotel, Kong Dejing and Shen Linfeng looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. What Xiang Que did was quite unethical, but it has to be said that the effect was still very significant. From tomorrow onwards, the engagement banquet will definitely spread in Qufu. .
The people from the Kong family returned to their old home. Shen Tianchang and Shen Linfeng got in the car and left Qufu for the airport, intending to return to Hangzhou overnight to report today's news to the elders of the Shen family.
midnight.
There are fewer and fewer people on the streets of Qufu.
A taxi was slowly swaying on the street. The driver's eyes were scanning the pedestrians on the road. Not far away, a figure in white clothes seemed to be waving in this direction.
The car stopped, and a woman with disheveled hair and a pale face opened the door and sat in the back.
"Where to go?" the driver asked.
"Hospital," the woman behind said in a dry voice, slowly.
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror. The woman behind him was leaning straight on the seat. Her long hair covered half of her face. She couldn't see her face clearly. Her exposed eyes were looking straight ahead. The clothes are unusually white.
The driver swallowed. He always felt that the woman who got in the car looked a little strange. He even felt that the temperature in the car was gradually getting colder.
Qufu in June is already very hot.
Ten minutes later, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the hospital. The driver turned around and said, "We're here, the fare is sixteen."
No one answered, and the driver turned around blankly, only to find that there was no one in the back seat, and a pile of yellow paper money was scattered on the seat.
