Not to mention the family on the high round platform, almost all the mansions of the first-class families are built like clubs. Xia Li and I followed the waiter through the courtyard of Loulan's house, and met a lot of pedestrians coming and going. Finally, we came to the largest garden behind the mansion, where a number of round tables had been placed on the lawn, on which cold meals and drinks were arranged. Guests talk to each other with wine glasses while waiting for the engagement ceremony to begin.

I looked around, but I didn't see anyone I knew. Come to think of it, there is no intersection between the twelve families, and the people who come to the Loulan family for the banquet are either relatives of the Loulan family or some first- and second-rate families who are attached to it. Moreover, I didn't see Loulan Daguan and Su Qiyun either.

Just as I was thinking about when I should do something, my sleeves suddenly tightened. Subconsciously turned his head, and what caught his eye was a girl with extremely beautiful appearance. Her chestnut-colored hair was casually scattered, her big smart eyes were sparkling, and what attracted me the most was the skin on her face, which was white and tender as if it could squeeze out water.

"Chen Mo, is it really you?"

"Tang Sanqian! Why are you here? "That's right, it's the eldest lady of the Tang Sect who has worked with me before, Tang Sanqian.

Tang Sanqian slapped my arm hard, "What have you been doing lately, I've heard a lot of rumors about you, but ...... Eighty percent is not a good thing. ”

So, I briefly told her about the past year. From her mouth, I learned that the Lan family of Wanhua City's land investment industry and the Tang family cooperated very happily, and she congratulated the Tang family on behalf of the Tang family on Wuxiang's engagement this time.

"By the way, have you been in contact with Luo Yunxian recently?" I asked.

Tang Sanqian shook his head, "I heard that she went abroad half a year ago, and I haven't been to Wanhua City for a long time." ”

At this time, a person who looked like a host stepped onto the stage of the ceremony and first delivered a congratulatory message, which meant to thank everyone for coming to Yunyun and what after-entertainment was arranged before the ceremony began. Later, I saw a group of kimono-style girls on the stage and dancing to the music.

I looked at the person in the middle in the middle, who was different from the other girls' kimono styles, as if it was the Nine Demons Mako I saw last night. At this time, she was holding two flower folding fans, dancing gracefully, winning a round of applause from the audience.

"I've been here for a while, and I've been running almost all the night clubs in Upper Beijing, and I've met this legendary Oiran girl a few times. Loulan's family invited her to perform in residence. "Tang Sanqiandao.

"Weird?"

"Even if it's an Oiran, after all, it's still a dusty woman, Loulan is an orthodox family, shouldn't she invite some outside stars or something?"

"Those celebrities may not be cleaner than her."

Just when I was chatting with Tang Sanji while catching up on the old days, a waiter came to my side and saluted me, and then said, "Mr. Chen Mo, Mr. Qilou, please go to his study to talk." ”

I nodded, said goodbye to Tang Sanqian for a while, and followed him to the study, while Xia Li waited outside the door.

After entering, Lou Lanqi Lou was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with his back to him. Sensing me coming in, he turned around and pointed to the couch in front of me, motioning for me to sit down and talk.

"Chen Mo, in fact, there is no need for us to meet this time. But for some reason, my gut tells me I should meet you. ”

Lou Lanqi Lou is still the same face I have ever seen, obviously in his forties, but he still has a thirty-year-old face. But the eyebrows have lost the light clouds at that time, replaced by a touch of sorrow and vicissitudes......

"What are your uncle's and aunt's plans for the future?"

"Tomorrow we will go back to Xijing, and in the future, my father and Daguan will be responsible for all the things here. You also know that the Loulan family has gotten off the high round platform, and now it is the end of the strong crossbow. ”

I nodded, and then after a long silence, I looked at him again and asked, "Uncle Qilou, what do you want me to do?" ”

Lou Lanqilou looked at me quietly, and after half a minute of silence, he finally spoke, "I want you...... Do nothing. ”

After a long time, he sighed again and continued, "Chen Mo, Wuxiang's marriage into the Su family is the ending that all of us want. You have also seen Su Qiyun, although this kid has a weak personality, he is indeed a good child. In fact, you were like that a year ago, but your later experience has made you tenacious now. ”

"What does the fog mean?"

"This is what I'm most worried about, if you don't come to Beijing, then even if she doesn't want to, she won't be able to change anything. The problem is, it's just you! But have you ever thought about what you can give her after you take away the misty incense? You can't give anything but freedom! ”

"But I owe Wuxiang a favor, if she needs me......"

Qi Lou sighed again, he had already sighed many times not long after I came in, "Chen Mo, you are a reasonable person. You can also see the current situation clearly, I am Wuxiang's biological father, and I will not harm her. From all angles, even from Kirika's point of view, she follows you...... To put it bluntly, it's the impulse of adolescence! She's still a child, but you've been through so much this year, shouldn't you think about it? ”

"What you say is good for her, isn't it a kind of kind of kindness imposed......"

Qi Lou stretched out his hand to interrupt me and said, "If you want to say that there is no difference between the good intentions imposed and the bad intentions, then I have nothing to say. You understand the reason, and you also know the situation, as soon as Wuxiang leaves without the Su family as foreign aid, our Loulan family has only one way to destroy. Do you want her to bear such a crime for the rest of her life? ”

Seeing that I lowered my head and didn't speak, Qi Lou finally said, "Now I can't stop what you want to do, you have indeed grown to the point where people in all walks of life are afraid of you." Think about it again. ”

I nodded, got up and said goodbye to Qilou. Before leaving the study, I turned around and asked him, "Instead of talking to me about this, you should do more ideological work for Wuxiang, so I think she ......" I swallowed the second half of my sentence and opened the door and left the study.

Before closing the door, I heard Lou Lanqilou's helpless wry smile coming from inside.

Qi Lou told me that this meant that Wu Xiang was very resolute, and she would follow me whenever she could.

Actually, my heart is very shaken now. I also think that Wuxiang marrying into the Su family is the best ending, and I also like Su Qiyun very much. But what is it that motivates me to be persistent? I don't know, it's like an instinct, as long as it's something Kirika wants, I'll do my best to help her achieve it. Come to think of it, I'm still too emotional.

……

When I returned to the lawn of the ceremony, I found that the guests had almost arrived, and the people in front of me who were surrounded by a group of people to congratulate were Su Qiyun and Wuxiang.

Both of them are wearing dresses, and at first glance they really look like talented women.

Kirika seemed to sense my gaze, looked up at me, and smiled faintly at me after meeting my gaze.

After Su Qiyun noticed Wuxiang's expression, he seemed to realize something, and followed her gaze towards me, and then his face became unnatural.

I turned my head and asked Xia Li beside me, "In addition to Qingyu hiding next to Su Qiyun, are there any of your special assassins here?" ”

Xia Li shook her head, "I can't feel it, it may be as good as a peony to hide." And the middle-aged man next to Su Qiyun, the orange-haired woman next to him, is also a master. ”

I looked in the direction that Xia Li said, and the middle-aged man she said was somewhat similar to Su Qiyun, and it should be his father. And that orange-haired woman should be their Su family's bodyguard, or a killer, like Qingyu!

At this time, Qingyu suddenly appeared beside Su Qiyun and looked at me. Her eyes were sharp, and she stared at me deadly. Then, her pupils seemed to shrink, and a biting chill came over the world, instantly flooding the lawn!

The surrounding guests felt the breath-taking atmosphere, and the warm sun felt like they were in an ice cellar! So they all looked at Qingyu in surprise, and some people with poor physique even showed frightened looks.

Su Qiyun's father frowned slightly, and said to Qingyu, "Don't be so rude." ”

Qingyu bowed slightly, and then restrained her murderous aura.

"It's scary." I said.

Xia Li said, "Generally, killers will try their best to restrain their murderous aura in order to hide their traces. But not only did she not restrain herself, but she also deliberately released it, which was undoubtedly a threat. Then she sighed and said, "Qingyu's murderous aura is indeed the richest and most imposing of anyone I have ever seen. ”

The corners of my mouth went up slightly, "It's going to be a very interesting day." ”

At this time, Lou Lanqilou and her wife, Wuxiang's mother, also came to the middle of the venue, and it was indeed a very young and beautiful woman, no different from Wuxiang. If it weren't for the richly dressed lady's outfit, it would be really difficult to tell her apart from the foggy fragrance.

Then they had a brief conversation with Su Qiyun's family, and the six of them walked to the ceremonial platform together. I knew that the engagement ceremony was about to begin, and the countdown to the plans of Huangcheng Wind Chimes and I had begun.
