Wenchang Bridge·Su House.
"Axing, have everything been arranged?" In the study, Su Wenqing, wearing a Chinese satin robe, asked the housekeeper Su Xing with a stick in his hand.
This year, Su Wenqing was not happy. Bai Yulan rejected him, and his somewhat rebellious daughter...
Fortunately, now I have finally found a solution. As long as the engagement party is completed tonight, everything can go according to my own wishes.
These days I have been tied up and holding back all the evil fire.
"Master, everything is ready. Over at the New World Hotel, we have booked the entire banquet hall tonight. In addition, I have also arranged for brothers to guide guests to park nearby and maintain order." Su Xing said with a slight bow.
"Miss, are you not in a mood anymore?" The biggest headache for Su Wenqing was Su Yun. He knew that Su Yun didn't like Feng Hua, but marriage was always ordered by her parents and could not be decided by her temper.
Feng Hua is the most suitable person for Su Yun, and their children will be the natural heirs of the Su family's business in the future.
He had already thought about this and would not allow anyone to destroy it.
"Ahua is with her."
"Although this kid Ahua has a bit of a temper, he is good in all aspects. This is how you should marry. This girl Xiaoyun doesn't understand it yet. She will understand it when she actually gets married." Su Wen Qing said, "She will graduate in half a year. After graduation, she will go back to Bingcheng. When she comes back, she will marry Ah Hua and then raise her husband and children. Isn't this good?"
"Okay, the young lady will definitely understand the master's painstaking efforts in the future." Su Xing nodded. In his opinion, Su Yun was a typical person who was born in the blessings and did not know the blessings. No matter how many people begged for them, they could not get them. She didn't want to How stupid would it be?
"Has the guest list been confirmed?"
"We sent out a total of 370 invitations. There are 313 people who are sure to be there. The rest accepted the invitations but did not say they would attend." Su Xing said.
"Where's Bai Yulan? Did she tell you?"
"I personally handed the invitation to Boss Bai, but she just accepted it and didn't say she would come or not."
"She didn't refuse on the spot, which means she is still considering it. If she comes, it will be the icing on the cake. If she doesn't come, it will be fine. When Su Yun and Feng Hua get married, I will serve her tea." Su Wenqing said domineeringly.
"yes."
"It's almost time. We have to go to the hotel first. We can't let the guests arrive before the host arrives." Su Wenqing stood up and said.
…
"Sister Lan, tighten your waist, tighten it a little more..."
"What's going on? I just tried on this cheongsam a year ago. It's just right." Bai Yulan was already trying her best to tighten her abdomen in front of the mirror.
"Sister Lan, maybe it's because Brother Sen has been coming here lately, so you eat more now than before." Axiang said heartily.
"What do you mean, I've gained weight?" Bai Yulan lowered her head and glanced at her flat belly, a little unbelievable. Recently, she has indeed stopped eating and eating is much more delicious than before.
"Forget it, get another one!"
"Axiang, the purple one with the gold and rust edges is nice..." Zhou Sen quietly appeared at the door. Seeing the master and servant changing clothes, he couldn't help but give some advice.
"Zhou Sen, why did you come in? Go out, go out, didn't you see me changing clothes?" Bai Yulan said shyly and anxiously.
"I was standing at the door, but I didn't go in. Yu Lan, you can't accuse me unjustly..."
"Axiang, close the door!"
Boom!
The door was closed, and the beautiful scenery was no longer visible, but at a glance, this future wife's figure was so perfect.
From now on, no other man can be allowed to see her again except her son.
This woman couldn't get out of her clothes without struggling for an hour or two. Zhou Sen had already experienced this.
So, he was alone outside, making a cup of tea and eating melon seeds.
Finally he opened the door and walked out.
But I saw Bai Yulan wearing a pink and purple high-collar three-quarter sleeve cotton cheongsam, which outlines a perfect and moving curve. Side-swept bangs, low bun hair, and a beaded flower perfectly reveal her graceful and elegant temperament. Come.
Zhou Sen couldn't help but gulped when he saw Bai Yulan like this. No wonder Su Wenqing wanted to get such a beauty.
However, now I feel better.
"Axiang, get a waistcoat and a coat. Don't let our Yu Lan freeze to death." Zhou Sen said hurriedly.
"Hey, you haven't said yet, is it okay for me to wear this outfit?" Bai Yulan asked with a raised brow.
"I'm afraid that if Su Wenqing sees him, he will forcefully order someone to rob him." Zhou Sen said, "Oh," and said, "I don't want you to go now."
Bai Yulan pursed her lips and laughed instantly, her flower branches trembled, and her eyes widened when she saw Zhou Sen. It would be better for fairies like this to go out less in the future, so as not to cause trouble to the people in the world.
"Then shall I go or not?"
"Let's go. There are quite a few guests here today. Let's go earlier so that we can avoid stealing the limelight from others." Zhou Sen said.
Zhou Sen helped Bai Yulan get into the carriage, and Axiang followed. Then, Wu En, who had also changed into a new set of clothes, put on the reins, and the carriage slowly drove out from the front door of Ningxiang Pavilion.
…
The New World Hotel is indeed very lively tonight. All the neon lights are turned on, and the colorful lights are shining, which can dazzle people from a distance.
As the vice president of the Bingcheng General Chamber of Commerce, Su Wenqing is a strong candidate for the next president. He is also from a gang. He has hundreds of brothers under his command, and his business is quite large in Bingcheng and even the entire Manchukuo.
Of course, there must be someone behind him, otherwise, he would not have achieved such a status in just seven or eight years.
The puppet Manchukuo officials and the Japanese all have their backing. Who in Bingcheng would not give President Su some respect?
Among the guests congratulating tonight were the Puppet Manchukuo Bingcheng City Hall, Police Department, Binjiang Province and the Japanese Military Police Headquarters. There were even some foreign consuls stationed in Ice City. It can be said that the upper class of Bingcheng basically arrived. Done.
This clearly shows Su Wenqing's influence in Bingcheng. Otherwise, how could he become a "big traitor" in the eyes of the people of Bingcheng.
Bai Yulan looked down on Su Wenqing, which must be the reason for this.
"Slow down, be careful..." Zhou Sen was careful and almost hugged Bai Yulan as he got out of the car.
Bai Yulan did not refuse, and naturally put her arm on Zhou Sen's shoulder. After getting off the car, she quickly took it back.
After adjusting his clothes a little, he put a hand on Zhou Sen's arm. The two turned their heads and looked at each other with a smile.
"Su Wenqing must be greeting guests in the lobby, aren't you nervous?" The two of them supported each other and walked side by side towards the gate of the New World Hotel.
Someone recognized Bai Yulan at the door, but what surprised them was when they saw Bai Yulan holding a young man's arm at the engagement party of Su Wenqing's daughter Su Yun.
Su Wenqing's daughter got engaged today. For the Bingcheng press, it was a great opportunity to dig up news, so reporters from all walks of life gathered.
These reporters are naturally very concerned about the guests appearing tonight, especially people like Bai Yulan who have already been included in the list of key concerns.
Therefore, as soon as Bai Yulan appeared, the reporters were like wolves smelling blood and swarmed in. If the hotel had not arranged security personnel, these reporters would have rushed to Bai Yulan and Zhou Sen.
"Boss Bai, on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month last year, did President Su Wenqing go to Ningxiang Pavilion to propose marriage to you?"
"Boss Bai, who is this male companion beside you? Is it your new boyfriend?"
"Boss Bai, can you tell me why you closed the Ningxiang Pavilion? Did someone force you to..."
"..."
Each of these issues is hotter and more acute than the last.
Bai Yulan didn't have a bad face. She had already seen big scenes. She said calmly and generously: "Today I am here to attend the engagement banquet of President Su Wenqing's daughter. This is not my personal press conference, so I don't want to ask questions about me." Answer, as for the identity of the male companion next to me, you can use your imagination, thank you!"
With a simple bow, Bai Yulan continued to walk into the hall holding Zhou Sen's arm.
This reaction, this answer, is textbook level, perfect.
Zhou Sen quietly gave her a thumbs up. He was a little worried just now that Bai Yulan would be trapped by the reporters' questions. As a result, she seemed to have answered, but said nothing. , and blocked the mouths of these reporters.
Someone had already taken the lead and reported to Su Wenqing the news of Bai Yulan's arrival, but there was also Zhou Sen.
Su Wenqing's originally smiling face suddenly became unnatural, and his eyes even turned a little cold.
What do you mean, are you here to have a showdown with yourself?
However, now that there were so many guests and it was his daughter's big day, no matter how unhappy he was, he still had to endure it.
"Master, Boss Bai is here..." Seeing that Su Wenqing was a little distracted, Su Xing, the butler beside him, quickly reminded him.
Su Wenqing, who had been a famous businessman for many years, immediately returned to his previous smile, took two steps forward, and met Bai Yulan and Zhou Sen who were approaching.
"I'm so happy that Yu Lan is here." Su Wenqing directly ignored Zhou Sen. Although he couldn't have a fit, it didn't mean he had no temper or attitude.
So many pairs of eyes are watching.
"President Su, congratulations." Bai Yulan said lightly, appearing calm about Su Wenqing's enthusiasm.
"Yu Lan, please!" Su Wenqing raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, without even looking at Zhou Sen from beginning to end.
The scornful and domineering attitude is evident.
Zhou Sen was also very indifferent and did not feel angry because of Su Wenqing's ignorance. Because of Bai Yulan, how could his attitude towards him become better?
In his eyes, Su Wenqing was not even a love rival at this moment.
In the banquet hall, a band played soothing and relaxing music, and the guests who came tonight also gathered together in twos and threes to chat.
Such an engagement banquet is actually a large-scale social occasion, which can also reflect the social status and influence of the host.
"Boss Bai is here too..."
"Boss Tang."
"Who is this young man from Boss Bai? Can you introduce him to me?" Many people quickly surrounded Bai Yulan.
Beautiful women are always the most attractive.
"Xiao Sen, please introduce yourself." Bai Yulan looked at Zhou Sen with a smile in her eyes.
"Hello bosses, my name is Zhou Sen. I work at Nangang Police Station and I am a junior police officer." Zhou Sen bowed slightly.
"Are you the Zhou Sen who broke President Su's corner?" Someone suddenly exclaimed, and the entire banquet hall fell silent.
The scene was extremely embarrassing.
Bai Yulan frowned slightly. She was also afraid that Zhou Sen would lose his temper and lose his composure, so she couldn't help but grab his arm hard.
Zhou Sen reached out and patted Bai Yulan's hand gently, and said with a smile: "Yu Lan is still young, she doesn't want to marry for a third time."
oh……
Everyone around took a breath of air.
This answer undoubtedly confirmed everyone's guess that Bai Yulan rejected Su Wenqing and chose the little-known police officer in front of her.
This is big news, much more exciting than Su Wenqing's daughter's engagement.
For a moment, everyone began to speculate whether there would be a more exciting show to watch tonight.
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Department, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
