Chapter 18: The Covenant of the Cross
Yueqiu's existence made Zuo Siqing have no chance to attack Zhao Yan, and slammed the door in a fit of anger. Now the men in the room are teasing these young and beautiful bridesmaids, only Zhang Baizhi is holding a drink handed to him by the waiter in the dance hall in front of him just now, leaning against the wall, looking inside, frowning from time to time.
These behaviors are still very new to him, because the custom of bridesmaids in the real world is only found in some remote places, and it is rare, and even if there is some excesses, it will be on the news immediately, and the page is full of reports.
In this world, this kind of behavior, coupled with the strange reactions of people here, can be seen that this is just like the sunrise and sunset, and the flowers bloom.
Zhao Yan has been paying attention to Zhang Baizhi for a long time, you must know that making a bridesmaid is something that these dicks are dreaming about, some people have never had such a beautiful affair in their lives, only rich people will hug left and right, and ordinary workers are trying their best to sneak into other people's weddings.
The reason why Yueqiu is not as hungry and thirsty as them is because people have money, and it is not enough to change women to sleep with them twenty-four hours a day, how can they care about such a little welfare.
Zhang Baizhi looked a little tired at the door, so he had to leave for the time being, he thought that this thing couldn't be finished for a while, so he went to walk outside the door.
After a long time.
Chu Tian's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Yueqiu, come here!"
Before Zhao Yan could ask, Yueqiu waved her hand and went out. Hearing the incessant screams and laughter coming from the room behind him, Chu Tian pulled Yueqiu to the corridor a little farther away.
"Are you going back in the evening?"
"I shouldn't go back, what's wrong?"
"If you don't go back, let's go and see the lantern festival together, there is a lantern festival at 12 o'clock at midnight in Baoli Temple today, and it only happens once in 5 years. ”
"Okay! Let's go outside, the feast is about to begin. ”
In an instant, all the people walked towards the hall, everyone took their places, and coincidentally, Yueqiu, Yao Na, Zhao Yan, and Chu Tian were arranged at the same table.
There are 8 people per table, a total of 100 tables.
The food and drinks on the table were already full, and I don't know why, the other tables were very lively, but they were very quiet.
Zhao Yan picked up the wine glass and stood up, and said in the direction of Zhang Baizhi: "This handsome guy, I toast you with a glass of bar, the first time we met!"
Zhao Yan doesn't know Zhang Baizhi, Zhang Baizhi can't be more familiar with Zhao Yan, he knows what status Zhao Yan is in Xinghe and even Jinzhou City, he has been abroad for 4 years, and he has become a household name just a month after he came back, and he is a little flattered in the face of her toast: "It's too polite, I don't dare to be it!"
Zhang Baizhi also hurriedly stood up.
Zhao Yan smiled and took a sip of the wine in the cup and said, "My name is Zhao Yan, what about you?"
Zhang Baizhi didn't know how to drink, so he took a sip, pretended to be fine, and kept smiling: "My name is Zhang Baizhi!"
"Are you Zhang Baizhi?" Zhao Yan meant that he had heard of this name a long time ago: "Zhang Baizhi of the editorial department of Galaxy TV?"
"yes, how do you know?"
"I often go to the editorial office, they told me, but I haven't seen you once!"
Zhao Yan saw Zhang Baizhi himself at this moment, and completely changed her previous opinion of this person, it is really better to be famous than to meet!
……
After the wedding banquet, it was already past 10 o'clock, and more than half of the banquet guests were ready to go to see the lantern festival in the evening.
And the people here are very superstitious about this lantern festival, after all, it is the oldest temple in Jinju City. Legend has it that during the Lantern Festival, the master of the temple will randomly place the treasures of the temple in a hidden corner of the temple. Whoever finds it can take it with them, and those who get the treasure will have good luck for a year.
Of course, this is just a legend, no one has witnessed it.
The richer the people, the more high-ranking officials and nobles, the more they believed in these legends, and they even traveled thousands of miles to the temple. They don't know if the person who got this treasure five years ago was a man or a woman, what his name was, how old he was now, and how he lived, but he just blindly came to this legend.
At half past eleven, Zhang Baizhi and others arrived at the temple, only to find that it was already overcrowded.
"I just said I wanted to come early, how can the hell squeeze in?" Yueqiu couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the crowd in front of her.
Zhao Yan and Chu Tian are both single women, and they hope to take this opportunity to bring good luck to themselves and get rid of the single as soon as possible, but they don't understand that it is easy to find a partner with their qualifications.
Girls who are often good-looking like to do it.
Zhang Baizhi showed mediocre interest in this lantern festival, and he walked around to watch the excitement, so he thought he was accompanying a few of them. Besides, it's good to look around, so that after a few months in Jinzhou City, others ask if you don't know this, and ask if you haven't seen that.
Yueqiu is to see if she can find an opportunity to do something, so as to add some impression points to Zhao Yan's heart.
Twelve o'clock was soon here.
Shockingly, I heard that treasures do not appear before twelve o'clock, and will only be found after twelve o'clock. And it is not possible to see how and when they hid it.
"There are three treasures in total, one for each of the three of us. "Zhao Yan looks so confident.
"What about these two?" asked Yao Na.
Looking back at Zhang Baizhi and Yueqiu, their eyes drifted around, and their thoughts didn't know where to run for a long time.
There was a lot of noise, laughter, screams, and talking along the way.
Yueqiu walked and walked, her eyes were a little wandering, and she sneaked into the crowd and disappeared while they didn't notice her.
……
"I haven't found it yet, will it have been taken away by someone else?"
"It's not that easy to find!"
Zhao Yan and Yao Na together, Chu Tian had already given up and went to the roadside to buy some barbecue to eat.
Zhang Baizhi found that Yueqiu was gone, and he didn't really want to find any treasures, but Chu Tian persuaded him again and again, so he had to choose to eat barbecue.
Zhang Baizhi was embarrassed to ask Chu Tian for a treat, and insisted on paying for it himself: "I'll invite you!"
Chu Tian smiled and nodded: "If you buy a bill, you have to grab it from me!"
The people around, including the barbecue owner, treated them as couples, and specially reserved a special seat for couples for them.
Even the barbecue stalls in this kind of area are very famous, and the seats are divided into couples, singles, and families...... And Zhang Baizhi didn't pay attention to these at all, Chu Tian remained neutral, anyway, she didn't hate Zhang Baizhi.
"Why don't you go looking for treasures?" Chu Tian asked curiously.
Zhang Baizhi habitually shook his head: "I don't believe in these superstitious things, and I don't believe in Buddhism either...... Why don't you go?"
"I originally wanted to go, but there are some things that are better than believing in superstition, and doing something practical by myself. ”
Chu Tian's words were deliberately said to Zhang Baizhi.
"I think so too. Zhang Baizhi said.
"Then we're pretty similar!"
Zhao Yan and Yao Na had already walked farther and farther, and were about to reach the back door of the temple. There were very few people here, except for the two of them, there was only one young man.
The young man walked back and forth, heard someone talking behind him, looked back at the two of them, and walked silently towards the crowded place.
Yao Na and Zhao Yan looked at each other, unaware of each other.
"What is this man doing?" Zhao Yan looked at the boy's back and asked puzzled.
"I'm scared away by you. Haha......"
"Get out of here!"
The sneaky man just now actually didn't have any malicious intent, he originally found one of the treasures, the cross. Yueqiu gave him 10,000 yuan when she found out, and asked him to deliberately expose the treasure to Zhao Yan's sight, making her think that she had found it.
Zhao Yan had already found the cross and held it in her hand and cheered.
Yao Na knew that Zhao Yan had forgotten to sleep and eat in order to get this treasure, and she felt relieved to see her happy appearance after finding it.
Everyone thinks that a girl with such a high appearance is scrambling to raise her. This is indeed true, but it also depends on the person, Zhao Yan's fame is too loud, and the people in the entire Jinzhou City know that if you find someone to marry casually, you are not responsible for yourself, but irresponsible for everyone.
She is the object of pursuit by tens of millions of people, many people don't want to see her in their lives, in addition to the suitors on the surface, there are many obscure dicks who support her behind the scenes, and they don't dare to talk to her when they meet, and they don't dare to say it if they like her, because it's useless to say it, it's self-inflicted.
Zhao Yan took the cross and looked left and right: "How to open it?"
……
Chu Tian and Zhang Baizhi didn't eat a lot, they just sat there and chatted all the time, this was the first time they had such a long conversation since they met, and both of them chatted very easily.
"Do you have a partner?" Chu Tian asked about the topic that Zou Mengling asked at that time.
Zhang Baizhi didn't know why he didn't avoid it this time, and replied directly: "No, I never talked about it." ”
"No, you didn't fall in love when you used to go to school, did you?"
Zhang Baizhi showed a melancholy and charming smile and looked into the distance: "I am an orphan, and I have no home, so naturally I can't talk about it." I have to wait until I go out into society and try to see if there are any good opportunities. Others can start a family first and then start a business, but I don't have a choice. ”
Chu Tian didn't know that Zhang Baizhi had such a tragic life story before, seeing that he was usually very careful, cautious, and pursued perfection in everything, but now he finally understood the reason.
"Then do you have someone in mind now? For example, Zhao Yan, the goddess of the whole people, you should also like her, right?"
"You say it's the goddess of the whole people, don't I still like her to create sorrow for herself?"
"Haha...... You speak with so much substance. ”
……
It was already past one o'clock in the morning, and the people of the lantern festival still couldn't disperse, and the temple was still lively.
