Chapter 7: The Strange Engagement Banquet
"What is this?"
Wei Nanyu scolded in his heart and immediately got up to dodge, but the knife suddenly turned around and flew towards her again.
Just when she thought she was going to hang up, the knife passed through her body and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Are you okay?
She stretched out her hands to look at herself, the knife fell to the side, but there was no blood or pain on her body, could it be that everything just now was an illusion?
"Ma'am, do you need any help?" A waiter with a plate suddenly came up to her face, "You don't seem to have a good face." ”
Wei Nanyu was frightened by his sudden face, and subconsciously stepped back a few steps and stepped on the knife: "I'm fine, this knife ......"
"Oh, I just picked up my things and accidentally fell out," the waiter crouched down, "Please lift your foot, I'm going to take it away." ”
Wei Nanyu did as he was told, and the waiter picked up the knife and carefully wiped it three or four times with a white towel on the tray, and then placed it neatly aside.
"You were frightened due to my negligence in my work, I apologize to you again, this kind of small accident will not happen again in the future, you can participate in the engagement ceremony with peace of mind, do you have any other questions?"
The table knife passed through his body, which is called a small accident? If it really hits her, she'll die! Also, what engagement scene?
She looked around and found herself in a hotel lobby filled with tables, each of which was filled with people.
Everyone lowered their voices and talked about something, but their eyes kept looking at the stage.
It was full of balloons and bouquets of various colors, and he was one of the invited guests.
"Guests? Is there anything else you need? ”
Wei Nanyu turned her head and found that the mockery on the waiter's face flashed, and when she looked at it again, all she could do was an extremely strange smile, and his eyes were still rolling.
She suddenly got goosebumps, clasped her hands in front of her chest and shook her head: "There is no need." ”
After hearing this, the waiter bowed ninety degrees: "Then please take care of yourself, you can call me at any time if you need anything, I am happy to serve you." ”
"Wei Nan Gardenia, Wei Nan Gardenia!" Her sleeve was gently grabbed, "Don't stand here, it's too eye-catching, sit down!" ”
She looked down and found that Gu Qi was sitting next to her, Lin Yu and Xue Nan, the little couple, were opposite, and there were two people she didn't know who were greeting her.
The rest of the table didn't seem to see them, and their attention was always on the table.
"Hello, my name is Qiu Wanna, you can call me Nana, I also came here because of variety shows, and the person next to me is called Lu Mingfeng, who is my teammate."
Through her introduction, Wei Nanyu got a general idea of the current situation, and this side quest is an engagement scene.
The rest of the room didn't seem to hear them or didn't pay attention to them at all, and all eyes were on the stage.
They don't have any clues at the moment, and they don't even know what the so-called secret is.
Wei Nanyu was a little absent-minded after sitting down, and the strange dinner knife just now made her always feel that something was wrong.
"Don't think about anything else, look for clues first," Gu Qi motioned for her to look at the stage, "The engagement banquet is about to start." ”
"Distinguished guests, relatives and friends, welcome to the engagement of Ms. Lin Jia and Mr. Shen Chengyang on this festive day,"
The emcee said endlessly on the stage, "The influence of the two of them in K City must be familiar to you, the two of them have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and they tied the knot when they grew up, this kind ......of fate is simply one in a million."
Everyone at the bottom applauded very much, and then Lin Jia and Shen Chengyang came to the stage, and the engagement ceremony began to go through the process.
Wei Nanyu clapped and came to Gu Qi's side.
"Do you remember the face of the woman in red? Is she Lin Jia? The side quest makes us unravel the secret, and now there are only two of them who are important characters, don't you think she? ”
Gu Qi stared at the stage for a while and shook his head affirmatively: "Lin Jia is not a woman in red, these two faces are completely different, and you look at her expression on stage, where is the shyness and surprise that an engagement should have?" ”
Wei Nanyu looked at the stage when he heard this, and sure enough, he found that Lin Jia's eyes were cold, and his eyes had undisguised disgust when he swept over Shen Chengyang's family in the audience.
But Shen Chengyang on the other side didn't seem to notice all this, and still said something to her with joy on his face.
"We went separately to ask the guests for information, at least we had to know the details of the environment and the relationship between the characters, and the clues might be hidden in it."
After discussing with Wei Nanyi, Gu Qi began to act alone, he held a glass of champagne and walked around among the guests, no matter who he met, he could chat with a smile or two.
Qiu Wanna was full of curiosity: "Nan Yu, your teammate shouldn't be an ordinary person, right?" Seeing that he looks like a fish in water, those who don't know think he was here in the first place! Since you've all inquired, I'll look around. ”
Gu Qi walked around among the guests and returned to Wei Nanyu's side: "Guess what I heard?" ”
"Looks like it's rewarding?"
Gu Qi nodded: "The harvest is not small, at least I know that Lin Jia doesn't like Shen Chengyang's family."
Just now someone said that Lin Qianjin was quite disgusted with the Shen family from the beginning, and she didn't even have any anxiety with them, and many people were surprised when they announced their engagement.
Before this, they didn't reveal any news at all, they thought that Lin Jia had changed his opinion on the Shen family and agreed to get engaged, but now it seems that there should be something else. ”
"Then her expression barely makes sense," Wei Nanyu looked at Lin Jia in the crowd, "I am so disgusted with the Shen family but I have to be engaged to Shen Chengyang, all of this makes me feel very strange." ”
"That's right, and ......"
Gu Qi stopped talking after seeing another group of people from a distance and asked about their gains, and the news he got was much the same.
Everyone knows that Lin Qianjin hates the Shen family, but no one knows the reason why she is willing to get engaged to Shen Chengyang.
"She seems to be leaving, I'll go up and see what's going on, you guys wait here for me to come back, if you go together, the target is too big and easy to be discovered."
Lin Jia's figure disappeared outside the door, and the defender Nan Yu immediately got up and followed her.
When she walked out of the hotel lobby, she found that the corridors outside were covered with red carpets, and people couldn't make any sound when they stepped on them.
On the walls, candlesticks are hung to barely illuminate the dark passages.
Wei Nanyu followed carefully nearly twenty paces behind her, and Lin Jia didn't look back all the way, she stopped in front of a house after passing through two long corridors.
"What is she doing here? …… Not! ”
Before Wei Nanyi finished speaking, her mouth was tightly covered from behind, and she felt that her body was being dragged on the ground, and her consciousness began to blur.
Broken! She's going to faint!
