Chapter 210: The Engagement Banquet Begins
Chapter 210: The Engagement Banquet Begins
He really couldn't stand Song Qingya's resentful eyes.
"It's only been a while, but it's just a while, my sister is already satisfied! You see, my sister can be easily satisfied!" Song Qingya continued to tease.
"Okay, Song Qingya, I want to tease the little man, and I'll talk about it when it's over. Don't you feel inappropriate on this occasion?" Bai Lingyue finally couldn't help but remind.
"Giggles, I knew you were going to be jealous. My sister won't be with you yet, and I'm going to say hello to some friends. I'm looking forward to your performance for a while!" Song Qingyajiao said with a smile, then got up and left simply.
Time flies before you know it.
Half an hour before 11 o'clock is the time for guests to arrive in droves.
And the heavier the character, the more the later it appears.
Being able to arrive at the scene more than an hour earlier and Qin Luo and the three of them can be regarded as an outlier.
Only ordinary business families and second- and third-rate families will arrive at the scene early.
Come early, and you have the opportunity to meet the top people you don't usually see. Again, you can get to know more people.
The people who really have an identity, those are the ones who only appear at the end and are waiting to be stammered.
However, as the head of the Xia family, Xia Yuanwei still arrived at the banquet hall half an hour early.
Facing the guests who were constantly flattering and congratulating all around, Xia Yuanwei always responded with a faint smile on his face.
After taking a turn in the banquet hall, Xia Yuanwei's gaze finally fell on Qin Luo and the others.
These three people, no matter which one appeared here, made Xia Yuanwei feel surprised.
He couldn't figure it out, how did Qin Luo, Bai Qi and Bai Lingyue get in?
"Ji Ran, you go and find out how the three of them got in?" Xia Yuanwei immediately commanded to Xia Ran, who was not far away.
"Uncle, don't check. I gave them their invitation!" Xia Ran said bluntly.
"What, you ......" Xia Yuanwei's eyes widened in disbelief.
"I'm sorry uncle, I know you're going to be angry, but I don't think I've done anything wrong! I just don't want to watch Xia Bing repeat her sister's mistakes!" Xia Ran explained with a serious face.
"You're just fooling around! Do you know what the occasion is today? Do you know how many people are going to come in a while? You actually let them in! If something goes wrong, who is responsible?" Xia Yuanwei's eyes immediately widened.
However, because there were too many people at the scene, Xia Yuanwei still lowered his voice and did not completely break out.
"If something really happens, the responsibility is mine!" Xia Ran smiled fearlessly.
"You...... You show me the three of them, don't let them mess around!" Xia Yuanwei was helpless for a while.
People are all in, what can I do now?
Is it possible to kick people out?
Which of these three was he Xia Yuanwei who wanted to catch up in front of so many people?
Seeing Xia Yuanwei turn around and leave, Xia Ran's face showed a trace of helplessness, and then he walked towards Qin Luo's side.
"It seems that an invitation card will give you a lot of trouble!" Qin Luo said thoughtfully.
"I'm his niece after all, she won't do anything to me! As long as it's for Xia Bing, it's all worth it. But I really don't know if it's right or wrong to help you now?" Xia Ran said with a complicated expression.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down!" Qin Luo said with a confident expression.
"I hope so, you sit down first, and I have to greet the other guests!" Xia Ran nodded, and then turned to leave.
Bai Qi drank alcohol from beginning to end and rarely spoke.
Only Bai Lingyue was introducing the identities of some of the guests to Qin Luo.
It was close to 11 o'clock, and the guests were almost there.
The banquet hall, which had been empty, became even more lively.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the door of the banquet hall.
The corners of Qin Luo's mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "The main master we are waiting for has arrived!"
I saw Zhang Jiguo, who was wearing a military uniform, and Zhang Zhongtao, a father and son who was wearing a straight suit, walked in from the outside surrounded by the stars and the moon.
Seeing that Zhang Zhongtao's face had subsided and returned to normal, Qin Luo frowned slightly dissatisfied.
It seems that the hand before yesterday was still too light, and he was really cured!
Zhang Zhongtao can be described as high-spirited at the moment, with a faint smile on his face, and he is in a gentle and elegant state when he sees anyone. It's just that there is a chilling coldness hidden in his eyes.
At this time, there were suddenly three more young men in suits in front of Qin Luo and the three of them, fanning out the scope of the three of them like the gods of the same door.
As soon as Qin Luo's heart moved, he knew that it must be someone sent by Xia Yuanwei.
It's the rhythm that doesn't want them to make trouble.
In fact, Xia Yuanwei was really scared.
In case Qin Luo beats Zhang Zhongtao again at the engagement banquet, he really can't find a place to cry!
And this young master really has the strength and courage to dare to do this!
Soon, the military bigwigs also arrived at the scene one by one.
Among them, there are also many family representatives of officials at or above the ministerial level, or in person.
The influence of the Zhang family and the Xia family can be seen.
Among these military giants, Qin Luo quickly discovered the two leaders, Guo Ren and Qian Liang, who were greeting Xia Yuanwei with a smile at the moment.
However, when facing Zhang Jiguo, the expressions on Guo Ren and Qian Liang's faces became weird.
Faced with the lukewarm attitude of the two, Zhang Jiguo frowned secretly, but he couldn't think about anything for a while.
Soon, everyone who should have come arrived, and the time came to 11 o'clock.
At this time, the master of ceremonies took the microphone and walked to the central stage and began to host the engagement banquet.
First of all, Zhang Jiguo and Cao Guilan, a pair of parents on the man's side, took the stage to deliver speeches. Zhang Zhongtao, the leading actor, stood on the stage under the auspices of the master of ceremonies, and expressed his gratitude to the guests and delivered a speech.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Yuanwei, as the woman's parent, also appeared on the stage and said a lot of polite words.
But his gaze would always glance towards Qin Luo and the others from time to time.
So much so that Zhang Jiguo soon discovered the existence of Qin Luo and the others, and his face suddenly became extremely pale.
Someone noticed that Zhang Jiguo's face was a little wrong, and followed his gaze and looked at Qin Luo and the others.
When you see Bai Qi's appearance clearly, it seems that you understand something.
The disagreement between the Bai family and the Zhang family is something that everyone knows.
No one expected that Bai Qi would appear at the engagement banquet of the Zhang family and the Xia family.
Is this here to smash the field?
In private, there are quite a few people whispering quietly.
So Zhang Jiguo's face became even more ugly.
"Zhang Zhongtao's mother's name is Cao Guilan, she is a descendant of the Cao family, and she is the same family as the Cao Weiqing you have seen before. Cao Weiqing also wants to call Cao Guilan an aunt!" Bai Qi reminded lightly at this time.
"You intended to help Cao Weiqing before, I'm afraid you also wanted to use him to investigate some things, right?" Qin Luo couldn't help but feel a move in his heart when he heard this.
Bai Qi didn't deny it when he heard this, and he didn't say anything more.
