Chapter 536: Unprecedented Pomp and Circumstance (Second Update)
The shadow of the fire fox flashed and disappeared, except for Situ Qiu, only a few noticed it, but no one said it.
Wen Yinuo only subconsciously looked up at the night sky after the light point disappeared, and did not look at the edge of the dark lawn.
He Chuchu frowned, and was about to call the organizer of the party, when he saw the wooden lanterns hanging on the trees around the lawn light up one after another, as if the light spots that disappeared just now were just everyone's illusion.
At this time, He Chuchu's mobile phone rang, he took it out and found that it was the organizer of the party who called him, nodded to the people around him, said "unaccompanied", and walked aside with his mobile phone.
"What's wrong?" He asked briefly.
The person over there was a little nervous and stammered: "Mr. He, I don't know why there was a sudden burst of energy, which short-circuited the instrument that lit the 'firefly' on our side, so I turned on the previous LED light." The equipment here still needs to be repaired by someone else......"
It means that the kind of "firefly" light point that makes people feel like a fairyland just now can't be made.
He Chuchu was just trying to build momentum for Wen Yinuo just now, and he didn't plan to use the "Firefly" overnight, but the sudden failure also made people very embarrassed.
He said in a deep voice, "Check out where the energy to short-circuit the machine comes from." β
"Yes, Mr. Ho." Seeing that He Chuchu did not pursue the matter, the man breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "We have already checked, and at eight o'clock on the edge of the lawn in the front yard, a huge burst of energy suddenly occurred, resonating with the energy of our machine, causing a short circuit. β
Eight o'clock?
He Chuchu's eyes swept over that direction, and what he saw was Situ Qiu holding Shen Rubao in his arms, and Shen Rubao covered his face and trembled.
Oh, I see.
He Chuchu retracted his gaze and said to the person on the other side of the phone: "Okay, I know, monitor the people over there to see if there will be an accident." β
"Yes, Mr. Ho."
Wen Yinuo stood with the Taoist priests who participated in the competition at this time, and Mr. Zhuge happened to be called away by his daughter Zhuge Hanying, so the rest of the people had no mental burden and were quite affectionate to Wen Yinuo.
People are the protagonists of today's party, they don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, and they have to be polite to Wen Yinuo.
Wen Yinuo didn't care, this was human nature, she wasn't ignorant of human feelings, so she still talked to everyone with a smile.
After those "points of light" disappeared just now, and the lights came on, a Taoist priest said a little uncomfortably: "...... There's evil here, do you feel it? β
All the Taoist priests looked at him together, and their faces were all over: Everyone is an expert, don't hide it, sell it, and let it go if you have something to say.
The Taoist priest took out his magic weapon, "Just now my thing was very hot all of a sudden, and it almost burned me...... The last time this phenomenon occurred was when I went to sea on a cruise ship with Master and encountered a huge hurricane...... My master said that there was a Jiao crossing the border and the dragon failed......"
His artifact looked a little peculiar, only a foot long, but it looked like a large spindle, perhaps a "mallet......
Wen Yinuo thought secretly, couldn't help but smile, and said, "What do you mean, just now we also had a failed dragon transformation here?" No way? β
It's a pity that because she was wearing a skirt today, she didn't bring her black riding soft whip that is said to have tendons, otherwise she can feel if there will be anything wrong.
The Taoist priest touched the back of his head and smiled, saying, "Probably not." When I came here today, I found that there was a powerful spiritual power here, which had a suppressive effect on my magic weapons, and it was impossible for ordinary people to make waves and make trouble if they didn't have enough mana. Don't you feel it? β
All the Taoist priests actually nodded in tacit agreement, indicating that they were also aware of it.
Wen Yinuo was a little surprised, she didn't feel it at all.
But she knew what these people meant, and this was what He Chuchu said about the "energy field".
Ever since that encounter with the Phantom Bird in California, He has been wary of this kind of magic at the beginning.
Invite so many people to a party today, although it is said that it is to correct Wen Yinuo's name, in fact, there should be other considerations, right?
Wen Yinuo didn't want to speculate, and said with a smile: "Maybe it is the security measures made by Mr. He, do you think, around the high-voltage electricity, will our magic weapons often fail?" A truth. β
"Oh? yes, it seems so! β
"Yes, yes, yes! Once I took my apprentice to give people a good opinion, and walked to a wilderness, my compass turned around like crazy, and I thought it was a feng shui problem at the time, but now I think about it, it is a large high-voltage power substation around! β
"Haha! So that's it! I said so! In the future, try to stay away from places with high voltage, otherwise it is easy to overturn! β
The Taoist priests were immediately led astray by Wen Yinuo, and even the Taoist priest who first discovered that there was a problem with the energy field here joined the heated discussion of "high-voltage electricity".
These people are not highly educated, but their social experience is incredible, because they have been dealing with people, and the people who can excel in this industry are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Wen Yinuo did not look down on these people because they were not highly educated, on the contrary, from them, she could learn a lot of knowledge and skills that she could not learn in school, as well as the ability to empathize with ordinary people.
It also helped her a lot.
She looked around with a smile, and suddenly remembered that Mrs. Fu and Fu Ningjue did not come.
Did He Chuchu forget to invite these two people?
But as if she knew it, as soon as she turned around, she saw an elongated luxury car parked in front of the courtyard gate, someone got out of the car and opened the door of the back seat, and three people got out of the car.
Because the lights on the lawn in the yard were a little dazzling, it seemed that the street lamps in front of the courtyard were a little dim, and the faces of the three people could not be seen.
When they walked into the courtyard gate and were under the LED silver light, Wen Yinuo realized that it was actually the Fu family!
Even Fu Xinren came......
On his arm was Mrs. Fu, who was wearing a Valentino evening dress, and on the other side of Mrs. Fu was the well-dressed Fu Ningjue.
Wen Yinuo couldn't help laughing and hurried to meet him.
"Auntie, Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu, you are here."
Mrs. Fu took out a delicate small box and put it in Wen Yinuo's hand, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry we were late, but when we were about to go out, Xin Ren suddenly called us and said that he was at the airport and asked us to pick him up." β
She glanced at Fu Xinren with disgust, but her eyes were full of sweetness.
Fu Xinren smiled and said: "I missed Mrs. too much, so I suddenly didn't tell me, Madame forgive me this time......"
He also put his face next to Mrs. Fu and hit her.
Mrs. Fu raised her hand and gently waved it towards Fu Xinren's face.
It looks like it's fighting, but it's actually touched lightly.
Fu Ningjue tugged at the corners of his mouth, looked away without looking, and said to Wen Yinuo: "Yinuo, I heard that Mr. He specially held this dinner today to introduce you to everyone as his sister?" β
"What dinner? It's just a party......" Wen Yinuo smiled and tilted his head, "But there are really a lot of people here, and I don't know more than half of them." β
Fu Xinren just wanted to come to see his wife and son on a whim, but he didn't expect to encounter such a grand occasion.
He raised his eyes and saw Shen Qixuan and Situ Zhao, and immediately said, "Let's go and say hello to Mr. He first, and then go talk to Qi Xuan and Uncle Jiu." β
Mrs. Fu nodded, and said generously, "It should be." β
He also said to Fu Ningjue: "Ah Ning, you should also say hello to He Chuchu first, and then go to say hello to your Uncle Shen and the Ninth Master." β
Situ Zhao, the "Ninth Uncle", will become the "Ninth Uncle" when he arrives at Fu Ningjue.
The corners of his mouth twitched, he nodded, and followed them.
Wen Yinuo thought about it and followed, she had something to say to He Chuchu.
Fu Xinren took Mrs. Fu to He Zhichu's side and said with a smile: "Mr. He, I am glad to meet." I just got off the plane today, and I came here with my wife's invitation, and I hope Mr. He doesn't mind. β
He Chuchu had no expression on his face, but he was not angry, and said lightly: "It is an honor for He and Yinuo to come to Mr. Fu, thank you for taking care of Yinuo before." β
He also shook hands with Fu Xinren, although his demeanor was very natural and he didn't mean to look down on people, but his every move really had a taste of condescension and nobility, which made people involuntarily want to surrender in front of him.
Even Fu Ningjue stood up straight, his back tightened, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
He Chuchu's gaze swept over Fu Ningjue's face, and he bowed slightly, "A few please, I still have something to say to Yinuo." β
As he spoke, he walked towards Wen Yinuo.
Wen Yinuo stood not far from them, looking up and smiling at them.
Fu Xinren was relieved to see He Chuchu leave with Wen Yinuo, and said, "This Mr. He is so impressive, and he feels similar to the one in our country. β
He didn't say who it was, but both Mrs. Fu and Fu Ningjue knew who it was.
The two nodded in unison, and then went to find Shen Qixuan and Situ Zhao together.
"Brother Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time, I thought you went to cultivate immortals hahahahaha......" Fu Xinren smiled heartily and patted Shen Qixuan's back.
shook hands with Situ Zhao again: "Hello Uncle Jiu, I haven't seen you for a long time, you don't look the same at all." β
Situ Zhao smiled: "When you are old, you are old, where can you not change?" But fortunately, Ah Che came back, and my burden was relieved. Over the years, thank you for taking care of Ah Che in China. β
Situ Che's pseudonym Lan Ruche is very popular in the domestic film and television industry, and the Fu family has helped him the most.
Situ Zhao was very grateful to the Fu family, and even more affectionate to Mrs. Fu.
Mrs. Fu's maiden family, the Nangong family, used to be a big man on the road, and the Situ family was called the "Haicheng Twin Heroes".
However, later the Situ family went abroad, and the Nangong family also took another path in China, which was also successful, but the Nangong family was much more low-key, and the country only knew that they were also hidden rich people, and they didn't know how powerful they were.
Of course, those who should know know, just do it.
is not a star in the entertainment industry, and he does not rely on fame to make money.
Out of the corner of Shen Qixuan's eyes, he had already caught a glimpse of Fu Xinren coming, as well as Mrs. Fu and Fu Ningjue.
He turned around and patted Fu Xinren on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Fu is also here, when did you arrive?" I'm having a treat tomorrow, so please be there. β
"Yo, I'm lucky to go abroad this time! Suddenly, on a whim, he not only rubbed Mr. He's dinner, but also rubbed Brother Shen's treat! Fu Xinren smiled happily.
These two people have a treat, and the people who can help him open up are not ordinary.
Fu Xinren also saw a few U.S. senators he had long wanted to get acquainted with.
These people hold the legislative power of the United States, and as long as they are dealt with, there is no need to worry about the United States making stumbling blocks.
His business is relatively diversified, and the proportion of foreign trade exports is increasing year by year, so he has to find agents in foreign political circles.
For example, the parliamentarian has become an ancestral business, the grandfather elects the son, the son elects the grandson, the one has three parliamentarians, and the father and son have two presidents.
If ordinary people want to run for election, it is impossible without the support of big conglomerates and families with deep backgrounds.
Therefore, it is even more difficult for foreigners to get to know the people in this circle.
He Chuchu opened a door for them, but unfortunately He Chuchu almost didn't send invitations to business people, otherwise there would be more ecstatic people today.
Shen Qixuan's contacts abroad are much wider than Fu Xinren's, and he doesn't need to use He Chuchu to get acquainted with people in foreign political circles.
On the one hand, because of the relationship between the Situ family, he has worked hard abroad for more than 200 years, and he is also deeply rooted.
On the other hand, it is also related to his previous work, he is very familiar with this set, although he has not been an elite in his line, but he is also a part of it.
Of course, what is more important is the Shen family's business empire, which also occupies half of the country abroad.
Shen Qixuan smiled and casually swept his gaze behind them.
Just now, he caught a glimpse of Wen Yinuo talking happily with the people of the Fu family, why did he come here, and Wen Yinuo didn't come with him?
Shen Qixuan felt very uncomfortable.
This is Situ Qiu who found out that Mrs. Fu was actually talking to Shen Qixuan and Situ Zhao, and hurriedly walked over with Shen Rubao.
"Feiran, we meet again." Situ Qiu took Mrs. Fu's Nangong Feiran's hand and was very affectionate to her.
When they were young, they were best friends, and Situ Qiu still met Shen Qixuan through Nangong Feiran.
Now more than 30 years have passed, and they have changed from young girls to mature ladies now, and the knife of the years has not intended to let them go.
Mrs. Fu found that Situ Qiu's hands were very cold, like ice stones, and a cold aura grew from her palm and drilled straight into her palm.
Mrs. Fu felt a little uncomfortable, shook it quietly, let go of Situ Qiu's hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, isn't there just such a place here, either the east or the west, and a large area of barren areas in the middle, what is there to see?" It's a pity ......."
Shen Qixuan hurriedly said: "Yes, it's a pity indeed. The geographical environment of the United States is really blessed, and if our people were here, the large plains in the central part would have become a fertile field long ago, and all kinds of grain would be grown happily, and it would not be abandoned to the grass. β
"The population here is small, and you can live well without so many people farming, our countrymen are just too diligent......" Situ Qiu's tone had a hint of contempt.
Mrs. Fu was very uncomfortable listening to it, and couldn't help but scold her: "Isn't it good to be diligent?" Is it commendable to be lazy? Besides, where are the people here who have a good time, it's not that the top class earns a lot of money, the middle and lower classes stop talking, and there is no surplus food at home for a week of work, do you think this is good? β
"Hehe, I didn't know that you still cared so much about people's livelihood and suffering. I dare say you haven't even been to a rural area without a flush toilet, that's hypocritical, right? Situ Qiu was unhappy by Mrs. Fu, and also made mockery.
Mrs. Fu laughed, "I'm not as noble as Ah Qiu, but I still have common sense, if I want to say 'hypocrisy', I am a primary school student in front of you, Ah Qiu, and I want Ah Qiu, a postdoctoral fellow in your hypocritical major, to give me a lot of advice." β
"You're ......!" Situ Qiu's eyes were about to be on fire, but she thought that today's dinner party was all upper-class people, so she controlled herself and didn't have a seizure.
Shen Qixuan and Fu Xinren glanced at each other, both a little helpless.
Fu Xinren grabbed Mrs. Fu's shoulders and said to Shen Qixuan and Situ Zhao: "I just got off the plane, I'm still a little hungry, go over there to eat something, chat slowly, and see you later." β
He didn't look at Situ Qiu, and gave her a cold face.
Situ Qiu was slightly stunned, Fu Xinren had already taken Mrs. Fu away.
Fu Ningjue didn't speak, and walked away with his parents.
Shen Rubao looked at their backs, frowned and said, "I didn't expect the Fu family to be so rude, Dad, that Mrs. Fu spoke too much just now, why don't you talk about her?" β
Situ Qiu thought to himself, that was Shen Qixuan's former fiancΓ©e, or was dumped, how could he be willing to talk about her?
Shen Qixuan only said to Shen Rubao: "Your mother is wrong in this matter, if I want to talk about her, I have to talk about your mother first." β
Shen Rubao's eyes widened: "What's wrong with Mom?!" Dad, I don't understand! β
"If you don't understand, you don't understand, go over there for dessert, and have your favorite durian cake." Situ Zhao said with a smile, pulled Shen Rubao and walked away, leaving only Shen Qixuan and Situ Qiu.
When there are no outsiders, it is always easy for the couple to communicate.
But Shen Qixuan didn't want to say anything more, his face was pale, and he said, "Ah Qiu, I think we should think about the marriage relationship between the two again." β
The disagreement between the three views is really fatal, and the three views have no status when they are in love, but after getting married, no amount of love can withstand the disagreement of the three views.
Situ Qiu immediately became nervous, the arrogance just now suddenly disappeared, she stepped forward and grabbed Shen Qixuan's hand, and said pleadingly: "Qi Xuan, it's me who is wrong, I shouldn't have said that...... I just love you so much that I ...... when I think you were engaged to her back then. I'll just ...... Didn't have a good face for her. β
Shen Qixuan rubbed his eyebrows, and said tiredly: "I am engaged to her, it is the intention of my parents, we are engaged to a doll, you also know that it is not counted, where is there a doll in modern society?" β
"You mean, you don't love her, you just obey your parents, don't you?" Situ Qiu's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that after so many years, he could still hear such words from Shen Qixuan's mouth!
Shen Qixuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, thinking that he had indeed moved Nangong Feiran, but the young man's heart was inherently uncertain.
I like this today, I like that tomorrow, few people can understand love when they fall in love for the first time.
He didn't say much, he knew that Nangong Feiran's true love was Fu Xinren, and his own true love was someone else, so he didn't mean to turn over old accounts.
Picking up a cocktail from the table next to him, he took a casual sip, and said, "...... What just happened? I seemed to see the shadow of an animal flash over there. β
Situ Qiu: "......"
β¦β¦
At this time, He Chuchu took Wen Yinuo to a secluded small room in the mansion, sat on the back chair, looked at Wen Yinuo fixedly, and said, "Can you start now?" Cast your 'big dream three lives' on me. β
Wen Yinuo nodded and whispered, "...... In fact, the 'Big Dream Three Lives' is not so mysterious, what it can see is only a person's past, present and future, not the past, present and future lives. β

This is the second update.
Good night everyone.
Qun Mo Da!
