Chapter 186: The "Great Gift" at the Engagement Banquet

"You're really, what are you doing parking outside here, it's such a cold day."

Chu Qiao rubbed his bare arm, and his teeth trembled slightly as he spoke.

The two of them came to find their mobile phones on a temporary basis, and they didn't wear coats at all, and they were still freezing in panic this big night.

"I'm not afraid of trouble, I can park outside and come out for a while, and I don't have to have to ask people to go to the underground garage to pick up the car, and I have to wait for half a day."

The smile on the corner of Sun Xiang's mouth seemed a little stiff, and he didn't know if it was too cold, it looked a little unnatural.

"By the way, what about your son, not to mention that he brought him to our house as a guest some time ago, and he hasn't seen anyone yet."

"My son...... He went to his grandmother's house. ”

"Grandma's house?"

Chu Qiao muttered in a low voice, and glanced at Sun Xiang beside him suspiciously.

"Yes...... yes, grandma's house. ”

Chu Qiao's heart suddenly trembled, and she finally understood where the intense uneasiness she felt when she got off the elevator just now came from.

Sun Xiang......

"I'm very envious of you, none of our two little grandparents in our family."

"On the contrary, I support the two little ones in your family, with a mother who thinks about them so much, I can't do it, in fact, I also want to be a good mother, after all, which mother doesn't think about her son, right?"

Chu Qiao nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, what mother doesn't think about her son." ”

"Miss Chu, be careful, the car is parked in the middle of nowhere, and the road is not easy to walk at night, in case you bump into Mr. Stuart and turn around, you will feel distressed."

"Well, I'll take notice."

Compared with the brilliant lights not far away, a turn into the alley, the surroundings suddenly quieted a lot, next door is an old community that is waiting to be demolished, the street lamps in the alley have not been repaired again, it seems a little dim, at this time there are many vehicles parked on both sides of the alley, ups and downs, every place may become a cradle of danger.

The two walked and chatted, and every time Chu Qiao took a step forward, he felt as if his heart had been hit hard by a fist, and it was transmitted to the eardrums.

According to the meaning revealed in Sun Xiang's words just now, there should be some imaginable danger hidden in some unknown corner of this place, and she observed the surrounding environment with the corner of her eyes without moving.

The mobile phone in the bag rang suddenly, Chu Qiao glanced at Sun Xiang and picked it up.

"Qingchen, I accompanied Sun Xiang downstairs to get my phone, what's wrong?"

"Oh, that's right, then I'll come up right away."

She hung up the phone and said to Sun Xiang: "I'm sorry, I have to go up first if there is something upstairs, you take your mobile phone and come up quickly, the banquet will start soon." ”

Sun Xiang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Go ahead, go ahead, I'll be soon." ”

Chu Qiao hooked his lips and smiled meaningfully at her.

Not long after Chu Qiao's figure disappeared at the entrance of the alley, three burly young men with guns in their hands suddenly walked out of the corner not far away.

"Stinky! Did you deliberately report to her? ”

One of the men slapped Sun Xiang to the ground, and the black muzzle of the gun was pointed straight at her.

Sun Xiang covered his face and lay on the ground, and a hint of meaning flashed in his eyes.

"How so? My son is still in your hands, I just don't want my own life or my son's life, you also saw just now, she was called away by phone, but it's none of my business, if I really want to give her a message, it's better not to bring her down in the first place. ”

"You'd better not play any tricks with us, or I'll be the first to cut your son!"

The other kicked her in the stomach, "Damn, just get a little closer and kill her!" ”

Sun Xiang was kicked and turned into a shrimp, her beautiful face was suddenly pale and bloodless, and cold sweat kept breaking out on her forehead in such a big night wind, but she was holding her stomach and gritting her teeth and not making a sound.

"Pretty fucking stubborn!"

The man squatted down and pinched her chin hard, "Don't blame me for not warning you, the people above are not patient, if there is a next time, just collect your son's body!" ”

After he finished speaking, he pushed her hard, got up and left with the other two.

After a long time, Sun Xiang stood up from the ground and staggered towards the Q Hotel.

Although my body hurts, my heart is finally a little more steady.

Anyway, this time it was a successful delay, as long as she was given a little more time, she would definitely be able to save her son unharmed!

"It's okay."

As soon as Sun Xiang got out of the elevator, he saw Chu Qiao who was already waiting there.

"Well, it's not a big deal."

Chu Qiao glanced her up and down, "I'll accompany you to the dressing room to find a new dress to change into, how ...... you look like now?"

Sun Xiang lowered his eyes and glanced at the clothes on his body, and sure enough, they were all smudges.

"It's fine."

"Did something happen?" Sun Xiang hasn't had much contact with her during this time, she originally thought she was busy, but now it seems that she is definitely not.

Sun Xiang suddenly paused and looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, I almost hurt you." ”

"I can't blame you, didn't you say that the mother wants to protect her son......" Chu Qiao's face suddenly turned pale, and he said in a low voice: "Your son, is something wrong?" ”

Sun Xiang nodded silently.

"When?"

"It's been a few days, that day my son was clamoring to play in the amusement park, and I didn't have time, so I sent a few bodyguards to let the nanny take him there, who knew that someone intercepted the car halfway, the other party had a gun in his hand, and took my son away on the spot, at first I thought it was kidnapping and ransom, but then I received a call but asked me to find a chance to lure you out alone, otherwise they will ......" Sun Xiang said this, his emotions obviously became a little excited, although he was much calmer than ordinary people, but after all, he was a mother, and now his son is not out of danger, How could she not be worried.

"They also said that they would send people to keep an eye on me in the dark, and even my mobile phone and home phone were all monitored, so I didn't dare to go to you all this time, and if they found out, I couldn't imagine what terrible things would happen."

"It's hard for you."

Chu Qiao patted her on the shoulder and expressed reassurance, "Do you have any clues about the kidnapping of your son and the person who called you now?" ”

Sun Xiang shook his head, "Four words, I don't know anything." ”

"It seems that the other party is not small, and it is impossible to do things so seamlessly without strength."

"Except for Chu Yun, I can't think of a second person."

"No, it won't."

Chu Qiao had already turned into the door of the dressing room while speaking, and casually found a chair to sit down, "Chu Yun doesn't have such great ability. ”

At this time, Yi Shaojin had already gone downstairs, and the dressing room was empty, Sun Xiang simply locked the door, and was not pretentious, and took off the dirty evening dress in front of Chu Qiao, and there was a clear bruise on the white abdomen, which made Chu Qiao tremble.

"Why is it so badly injured, I thought it was just a slap in the face, I'd better send you to the hospital to see, kicking the stomach can be big or small, if it hurts inside, it will be troublesome."

"It's okay, it's not that serious."

Sun Xiang smiled indifferently, "It's still at the engagement banquet, so I won't go to the hospital where I touch my head, I'll go later." ”

She casually took a well-fitting evening dress from the hanger on the side, "Don't wear this young man later." ”

"Well, she's going to put away everything she wants to wear, and these are spare."

"But just now, it's really dangerous, if you walked a few meters further at that time, then the situation may be completely different, it seems that your husband is really your lucky star, even if you are not around, a phone call can save you."

Sun Xiang got dressed, sat down at the dressing table and began to cover the obvious slap marks on his face with foundation.

"How can there be such a coincidence, I pinched my handbag and pressed it, I felt something was wrong when I heard you talk about your mother, I remember you once said, your parents died early, so I have been pondering your words, and you later reminded me to be careful, so I found an excuse to leave, you took such trouble to lure me out to show that those people must be coming for me, and you can naturally be safe for the time being when I leave."

"Thanks to your cleverness, otherwise something really happens, even if my son is replaced, our mother and daughter will be guilty for the rest of their lives."

In fact, even if Sun Xiang didn't say it, Chu Qiao also knew in his heart that it was Yi Qingchen who really made Sun Xiang scruple, if she really did something because of Sun Xiang, even if she really exchanged Sun Xiang's son back, their mother and son would definitely not survive.

Outside, there was a knock.

"Mr. Chu, there's a little mess downstairs, Mr. asked me to invite you down."

Hearing Wen Yi'an's voice, Chu Qiao hurriedly stepped forward and opened the door.

"What's wrong?" A good engagement banquet, what else can go wrong?

"You can go down and see it, the old man is losing his temper now, and he has transferred a lot of people to ask for a thorough investigation of this matter, and the gentleman asked you to go down to accompany Miss Shaojin, she was shocked."

Shocked?

Chu Qiao couldn't help frowning.

Yi Shaojin is not small, what can surprise her.

"You put on your makeup and then come down, I'll go down and have a look first."

"Well, go ahead."

……

At this time, the engagement banquet scene was chaotic, the original fragrant air, there was a strong smell of blood at this time, most of the female relatives were frightened and all gathered in a corner, one by one, their faces were pale, and even some people were covering their mouths and retching, hesitating and hearing a slight sobbing, and the male guests were very consciously forming a wall of human flesh, just isolating them, but they were also solemn and nervous.

All around were expressionless gunmen with soldiers, apparently transferred from the troops.

Chu Qiao's puzzled gaze swept over everyone's faces, and most of the people's faces showed a frightened and even slightly disgusting expression.

Disgusting?

How could there be such a strange expression?

She followed everyone's gaze toward the center of the lobby.

On the delicate gold-painted red carpet, a pure white rectangular gift box caught her attention, and next to this gift box stood a helpless female staff member, she was also the only girl on the scene who was not protected by men, a small face was frightened and pale, even if it was a little distance, it could still be seen that the thin body was trembling uncontrollably.

"Don't go over."

Before Chu Qiao could walk in, Yi Qingchen suddenly stepped forward and covered her face and hugged her aside, "You go over there to accompany Shaojin, she is frightened." ”

"Oh...... What's in that box? Even if I didn't see it with my own eyes, based on the clear smell of blood in the air and the reaction of everyone at the scene, it was obvious that the box was an object taken from some kind of living body.

Just what exactly?

Who deliberately picked it to be sent today?

"Something that will affect your appetite after looking at it." He smiled and pointed to the group of women gathered together like chickens not far away, "I don't want my personable queen to be like them." ”

"Actually, there's one thing I haven't reminded you of."

Chu Qiao suddenly broke his face seriously, "When something happens, please automatically switch my gender to male, thank you." ”

"Wife, you wait!"

Before Yi Qingchen stepped forward to stop her again, Chu Qiao had already walked to the box.

The smile on the corner of his lips froze in place when he caught a glimpse of the contents of the box.

A human head!

The bloody human head was glaring at her with angry eyes!

And this person is not a stranger to many people present, it is Song Wan who was bitten to death by a five-step snake some time ago!

The black lips, the dark skin, and especially the bloodshot eyes had probably been left at a low temperature for a long time, and the human head was constantly oozing black and purple blood at this moment, looking as strange as bleeding from the seven orifices, and a disgusting layer of plasma had accumulated in the tray at the bottom of the white box.

"Mr. Chu......"

As soon as the waitress saw Chu Qiao on the spot, she couldn't help crying.

Although she had only seen Chu Qiao on TV before, after such a serious thing happened, seeing her at this time was as kind as seeing her own relatives.

"You brought this box in?"

The waitress cried and nodded, and said intermittently: "Just now the main station called and said that someone sent a congratulatory gift to today's newcomer, let us send someone down to get it, I just answered the phone so I went down by myself, who knew that I hugged such a thing and came up......"

As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at the gun-wielding soldiers around her.

Obviously, being frightened by the contents of the box was only one of them, and the waitress was choked by the soldiers.

"Mr. Chu, I really don't know what's going on with this matter, I answered the phone randomly, and when I went down, the person was no longer there, only this box was on the main desk."

"Mr. Chu."

Wen Yi'an stepped forward slightly, and when he came to her ear, he didn't know what he was whispering.

"It's okay, I believe this matter has nothing to do with you, you go over there and stay with your colleagues first, it will be better if there are more people over there."

"Well, thank you, Mr. Chu, thank you, Mr. Chu."

The waitress cried as she spoke.

She thought that Mr. Chu would definitely be furious, after all, such an ominous thing was brought in by her, but instead of blaming her, Mr. Chu was so considerate of her, it was really good, she spoke so gently just now.

"It's really nice."

Yi Qingchen stepped forward and originally planned to comfort her, but it seemed that Chu Qiao didn't need any comfort at all, her tone was a little obviously disdainful, she just glanced at the head on the ground with disgust and didn't look at it again, and her calm face didn't take this thing to heart at a glance.

"I'll go over there and see Shaojin."

"Hmm."

Yi Qingchen smiled at her back as she left.

"My sister-in-law is really a heroine among women."

Yi Shaoxuan couldn't help but praise.

When the box was opened just now, almost all the women present were frightened, and several were scared to cry on the spot, only she was still like a nobody.

"She's always different."

The smile on the corner of Yi Qingchen's lips was even worse, with a hint of spoiling, there was a big meaning that she was the sky, as long as she was well, everything was fine.

"By the way, you've been in the United States for so long, how are you doing?"

"What else can I do, the revolutionaries have not succeeded, and the comrades still need to work hard."

"Come on."

Yi Qingchen patted him on the shoulder, and hurriedly went to find Chu Qiao again.

"It's okay with you."

Chu Qiao asked the waiter to pour hot water and handed it to Yi Shaojin.

"It's nothing, it's just disgusting, and the smell almost didn't make me faint when I first opened the box."

"I'm sorry, I swore to help you arrange the banquet, but it turned out that there was such a mess in my place."

"Fool, what are you talking about, you don't want it, you don't want it, besides, it's almost eaten, it's okay, don't take it to heart." It was precisely because she was worried that Chu Qiao would blame herself, so as soon as she saw her coming over just now, Yi Shaojin immediately put on an indifferent expression, but she still blamed herself.

"Oh my god, it scared me to death."

Sun Xiang just entered the door, he didn't know what was going on, so he stupidly leaned over to the white box to take a look, and when he walked over, he was already shocked, "Which one of these immoral people did it, and he should have picked his skin when he found out!" ”

"Don't worry, I'll definitely pull her out!"

Chu Qiao beckoned to Wen Yi'an on the side, whispered a few words to him, and soon Wen Yi'an walked towards Old Man Yi.

After a while, the military men left with the white box.

"I'm sorry for the frightening ......"

After the old man left, the master of ceremonies could only start the round.

"That's it for today."

Yi Shaoqing's words were considered amnesty, and after a while, the guests at the scene were almost scattered.

"Big cousin, you should accompany Shaojin home first, grandpa should go to the army at this time, let's go over to see the situation."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Yi Shaoqing's face is not very good, but it is caused by anger, and he finally got engaged to Shaojin, but there was such a mistake, and at this time, he just wanted to find out the culprit and execute Ling Chi!

Chu Qiao nodded apologetically.

Just when everyone thought she was leaving, she suddenly paused and said to the waitress who brought the white box in just now: "I may need your help to record a confession." ”

"Hmm."

In a certain unit of the Kyoto Central Military Region, the atmosphere was obviously much more solemn than before, and two rows of soldiers were neatly lined up outside the conference room.

The waitress originally thought that she was going to the public security bureau to record a statement, but when she got out of the car, she found that she had been brought to the army, and her body was so frightened that she couldn't stand still.

"Chu ...... Mr. Chu ......"

Chu Qiao glanced at her lightly, showed a meaningful smile, and soon entered the door of the conference room with Yi Qingchen, while the waitress was handcuffed before entering the door and escorted in by two soldiers.

She glanced at the people at the conference table in horror, and gave Chu Qiao a look of help.

Didn't you say that you were just here to record a confession? Why did you handcuff her instead?

"Grandpa."

"Here we are."

Old man Yi sat on the upper seat with a straight face, and a group of people sat below, Chu Qiao swept away, and the epaulettes on his shoulders were jaw-dropping.

The two of them sat down.

"Mr. Chu, no matter what happens to me, I'm innocent, I really don't know what's going on!"

"Do you really not know?"

Chu Qiao nodded at everyone and said coldly: "All the congratulatory gifts for the engagement banquet are stacked in the first room out of the elevator, and the invitation registration office is also there, I don't think you should know it!" I knew it was a congratulatory gift, but I was stunned to take it to the auditorium and open it in front of everyone, I don't know if it's an antonym? ”

"No, Mr. Chu, it was the main station that said that the person who sent the things specially told him that he must open it in front of the newcomer, so I, that's why I ...... If you don't believe it, you can ask the people at the main station! ”

The waitress hurriedly argued.

"What about the taste? Such a heavy smell, even if people passing by with a lid can't smell it, you should always smell it, the surveillance video shows that you have been picking it up! With such a heavy smell of blood resting under your nose, how bad must you be with rhinitis? ”

"I really have rhinitis...... The waitress's voice was a little weak, I don't know if I was weak or afraid, I was afraid that I didn't believe my truth.

"Looks like you've made up your mind not to tell the truth! Come! ”

Old Man Yi had long run out of patience, and with a wave of his hand, two soldiers walked in.

"I'm telling the truth, believe me, this really has nothing to do with me! I finally got into the Q Hotel to work, it was my lifelong dream, how could I possibly do such a thing! ”

"When did you enter the hotel?"

"Yesterday...... Yesterday ......"

"Yesterday?"

"Yes...... Yes......"

Chu Qiao wrinkled his eyebrows slightly and stared at her for a long time.

"Why did you come in yesterday and be sent to serve at the engagement banquet today?" All kinds of large-scale banquets in the hotel are generally more cautious than ordinary dinners, so the waiters sent are all older skilled people, how can they get a novice to go over?

"I ...... I don't know, it was arranged by Manager Wei. ”

"Manager Wei?"

Chu Qiao took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Wen Yi'an, and whispered a few words in Yi Qingchen's ear.
