Chapter 585: The Lurking Wolf

After Chen Xiong left Shanshan's room, he called his attendant over. ()

"Today's wedding is canceled, you go and deal with it, see what kind of excuse is appropriate, remember, Shanshan's reputation and family face are the most important. Chen Xiong handed over this matter to his subordinates, it was already this time, Shanshan's wedding was definitely in vain, rather than letting those guests wait stupidly, it was better to let them disperse early, besides, it was not too early.

Chen Xiong's follower seemed a little embarrassed, but this was a matter explained by the head of the family, and he must do it anyway, and he must do it well.

"Understood, master. The attendant turned and walked towards the venue, pondering all the way what kind of excuse he should come to, and this matter was done safely.

The corners of Chen Xiong's mouth twitched a few times, he turned around and slammed his fist on the wall beside him, the sharp pain from his knuckles made him wake up a lot, and after taking a few deep breaths, he returned to Shanshan's room.

"You are also a member of the Chen family, don't you know the importance of the secret room to our family? How can you casually bring an outsider there?" Chen Xiong continued to teach Shanshan, although in the Chen family, he loved this sister the most, but now that the stakes were so high, he couldn't take care of it so much.

"How could I have thought about it so much? He has been very depressed in the past few days, always wants to get ahead, I just want to help him, there are so many things in the secret room, I think maybe there is something he can use, so I took him there, if he is better, wouldn't it be good? What are you yelling at me?" The elder brother, who had never been angry with himself, suddenly turned his face to himself, Shanshan couldn't accept it, and yelled at Chen Xiong.

"Then did he find it? Did he find something that would help him? Is he okay? Are you okay?" Chen Xiong was speechless as he asked a series of questions.

"I just wanted him to feel better, not so bad. Shanshan whispered, she also knew that this matter was her own fault.

"When did you take him there, why don't I know?" Chen Xiong suddenly remembered that he had been in the room all day, how did Xiang Nan get in?

"That's the day, I asked you to find someone to help me count the day, and when you left, I took him in. Shanshan's voice became smaller and quieter, although she dared to yell at Chen Xiong, but in fact, she was still very afraid of this brother.

"Okay, you, you actually helped outsiders calculate me, and deliberately separated me, just to take him into the secret room. Chen Xiong was already so angry that if it weren't for Shanshan, he wouldn't be able to help but beat her to death.

"Then did he take anything?" Chen Xiongqiang endured to keep himself from having a seizure.

"No, I don't. He said there was nothing he could use. Shanshan thought about it for a moment, then shook her head, and suddenly she seemed to remember something: "We also found a key, but we didn't find anything." ”

"What??" Chen Xiong's face became very painful as if he had been punched, and after he screamed, he pulled out his legs and ran out.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Shanshan was startled, she had never seen Chen Xiong like this, and she didn't care so much, she jumped out of bed and ran after Chen Xiong, even though she was still wearing that specially customized wedding dress.

Chen Xiong's entourage walked all the way and thought all the way, and finally came to the stage of the auditorium, where the guests were still sitting, but from the content of their conversation, it could be heard that they were all a little impatient, and they had been waiting for nearly three hours, whose wedding would be like this?

Although the master of ceremonies on the stage was still telling jokes to delay time, no one was in the mood to listen to this.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to have a special situation to inform you. The attendant walked up to the stage, snatched the microphone from the master of ceremonies, and said loudly.

The audience fell silent all of a sudden, special circumstances, what special circumstances would it be?

"That's the case, today's groom, our protagonist had a car accident on the way here, and is still in the hospital, the head of the house and the young lady have rushed over, so I'm afraid this wedding can't be held as scheduled, the head of the house specially asked me to arrange everyone, and apologize to everyone on his behalf. "The attendant came up with the most vulgar excuse, that is, he had a car accident to the south, and since it was a car accident, it would definitely not come.

"It's a car accident, no wonder. There was an uproar in the audience, speculating why the wedding hadn't started yet, and it was the groom who had a car accident for a long time.

Although it is a very cheesy excuse, it is the most acceptable.

"It's okay with us, how is the groom official? Is it serious?" After all, it was the wedding of the eldest lady of the Chen family, even if everyone was a little dissatisfied in their hearts, they didn't dare to show it, and they had to pretend to be very concerned to inquire about the situation in the south.

"I don't know much about this, but I'm really sorry that I'm still in the hospital and I've kept everyone waiting for so long. The attendant began to apologize on stage.

"It's okay, it's okay, no one wants this, as long as the groom is fine, even if we have to wait here for three days and three nights, it's worth it." The guests in the audience said one after another.

Although he is very generous on the surface, he has already scolded in his heart: damn it, there will be no car accidents sooner or later, but at this time, Lao Tzu has waited for so long in vain.

Just after settling the matter of the ice guests here, Chen Xiong had already run through the tunnel and into the secret room.

Last time, who said that when he came to the south, he also took this road, but Chen Xiongke is much more skilled than them, obviously he often comes here, and the furnishings here are very clear.

As soon as he entered the secret room, he ran directly to the corner to the south, pushed open the wall tiles, took out the box and took out the key, then folded it back, pushed away the first wall brick, and carefully picked up the golden lotus placed on it, and laid it flat on the pedestal, revealing the base of the golden lotus.

The secret room was quiet, Chen Xiong could hear his heartbeat, beads of sweat kept coming out of his forehead, and with a trembling hand, he inserted the key into the keyhole of the golden lotus base, twisting.

"Click", the base of the golden lotus was opened, Chen Xiong took out the wooden box hidden inside, opened it, the small box was still lying quietly inside, he breathed a sigh of relief, took out the small box, opened, and it was empty.

"Ahh

Shanshan followed behind Chen Xiong, but she was small and didn't run as fast as Chen Xiong, she happened to hear the scream when she ran into the tunnel, and when she ran out, she saw Chen Xiong slumped to the ground, a face without a trace of blood, white and white.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Shanshan hurriedly ran over, knelt beside Chen Xiong, stretched out her hand to help him, and asked with concern.

"It's gone, it's gone, it's gone. Chen Xiong muttered in his mouth.

"Brother, what's wrong? What's wrong? You make it clear. Shanshan didn't understand what was going on, and Chen Xiong's appearance made her even more anxious.

"The needle is gone, and you brought in a thief. Chen Xiong turned his head to look at Shanshan and said weakly.

"Iron needle. Shanshan was stunned for a moment, and then collapsed to the ground.

As a member of the Chen family, and an important person, Shanshan certainly understood the importance of this iron needle, but she couldn't figure out how the iron needle could be here?

Shanshan knew that the Chen family had an iron needle since she was a child, although she didn't know what this iron needle was for, but she knew that the iron needle was very important, and even involved the fate of the Chen family.

Looking at the nasturtium that fell behind the wall tiles and the box that fell on the ground, Shanshan seemed to understand a little. For a while, countless scenes flashed in Shanshan's mind like a movie.

After Xiang Nan found the key, he had already planned to leave with him, but he turned back halfway, and finally found the golden lotus, and when he opened the golden lotus, Xiang Nan let himself go to the mouth of the tunnel to let the wind out, and did not let himself see where he opened it with the key and what he took.

Could it be that the iron needle was hidden in the nasturtium? But why did Xiang Nan still look so disappointed when he left? Could it be that he pretended all this? No wonder he left the next day, could it be that he had planned it all a long time ago?

Shanshan's mind was very messy, and it turned into a pot of paste, she just sat on the ground with Chen Xiong like that, and she didn't know how long she sat there, no one spoke, and no one knew what the other party was thinking in her heart.

Suddenly, Chen Xiong stood up, pulled Shanshan up, and seemed to be very excited and said, "No, I'm going to chase the iron needle back, you come with me and tell me what's going on?"

Shanshan has completely lost her mind now, and she can do whatever Chen Xiong says.

Chen Xiong pulled Shanshan back to his room and closed the door to enter the tunnel, his face had changed from the miserable white just now to the current iron blue, Shanshan looked a little scared.

"You tell me the whole thing from the whole thing back and forth. Chen Xiong was completely like a different person, sitting in a chair, Shanshan stood in front of him, as if interrogating, and asked without the slightest emotion.

Shanshan also realized the importance of the matter, and said while reminiscing, telling Chen Xiong all the things that could be remembered after Xiang Nan came to Chen's house.

After listening to Shanshan's description, Chen Xiong could already determine that the iron needle was stolen by Xiang Nan, and he must have taken advantage of Shanshan's inattention to get the iron needle, and then found an excuse to leave the Chen family.

All this was a conspiracy from the beginning, everything Xiang Nan did had only one purpose, that is, for this iron needle, no wonder he sent Shanshan a message saying that he had a purpose, it turned out to be so. I really didn't see it, this southward is a wolf hiding in the shadows, lurking for more than 20 years, and finally found an opportunity to bite the Chen family fiercely, even the belt meat, deep bones.
