Chapter 281 Taking YoYo to the Wedding
Chapter 281 Taking YoYo to the Wedding
Zhan Yeqiu represented the Zhan family at the wedding of a young man from a ballet family, and brought Youyou along as well.
These past few days, Zhan Yeqiu has liked to take YoYo with him wherever he goes.
The moment Zhan Yeqiu appeared, many people at the wedding changed their expressions, some with fear, some with disgust, some with contempt, and some even covering their mouths and whispering.
"Hey, isn't that Zhan Yeqiu, the second young master of the Zhan family? He's so handsome, like a male protagonist straight out of a novel."
“I remember, I remember, but it seems like he hasn’t attended any events in the past year. How come he has time to attend the ballet prince’s wedding today?”
"Don't you know that this Second Young Master Zhan has a lot of blood on his hands? I heard it's more than one. The reason he doesn't attend events is because the Zhan family is afraid of attracting attention and wants to hide for a while."
"What? No way? How could that be?"
"Why not? It's common knowledge that he seized OBA Medical. Do you think the former chairman of OBA Medical would so easily hand over the medical institution he'd built up over most of his life? It was only through Zhan Er Shao's ruthless methods that the former chairman was forced to compromise. And everyone knows what kind of person the former chairman is. He would only compromise if his family's lives were in danger. Besides, haven't all the young masters of OBA Medical disappeared recently? Maybe..."
Before the woman could finish speaking, Zhan Yeqiu shot her a fierce glare, which frightened the three women so much that they immediately lowered their heads and dared not utter another word.
"Dear friends and family, thank you all for gracing this couple's wedding..."
Suddenly, the voice of the wedding officiant rang out from the stage, and people gathered below to offer their heartfelt blessings to the newlyweds.
After the officiant gave a long speech, the parents of the bride and groom gave their speeches, and then the groom was formally invited to the stage to give his speech.
The groom was a very handsome young man. Judging by his appearance, one might mistake him for a minor, but in fact he was already in his early thirties, two years older than Zhan Yeqiu. This was not his first marriage, but each time he married, he received blessings from everyone.
Zhan Yeqiu looked at the baby-faced groom, Wu Xingshui, his eyes narrowing slightly. He felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place him.
Held in Zhan Yeqiu's arms, Yoyo had a wide field of vision and could see the whole scene. She could also see the scene on the stage clearly. She saw that Wu Xingshui was surrounded by black mist. The black mist was too turbid for Yoyo to distinguish which type of black mist it was.
"Second Uncle, there's a dark aura on that groom," YoYo said.
"Black Qi?" Zhan Yeqiu looked at Wu Xingshui, trying hard to recall the person in his mind, but he still had no impression of her at all.
"That's right. Although I can't tell which type of dark energy it belongs to yet, Second Uncle, I'm sure this groom is no good. Are you friends with him? If so, then break off the friendship immediately."
"Of course not. We are here to attend the wedding only because our elders know each other. As for the bride and groom, my second uncle doesn't know them at all."
Soon, the complicated wedding ceremony ended, and everyone took their seats for the meal.
Zhan Yeqiu and Youyou sat on the man's side.
The bride and groom changed into a new set of toasting attire, each holding a bottle of wine, and went from table to table offering toasts.
Zhan Yeqiu kept his eyes straight ahead, but he could sense that Wu Xingshui's gaze would occasionally drift in his direction.
He ignored her and instead picked up the food that YoYo couldn't reach.
Soon, the sounds of toasts grew louder as they approached.
After toasting the guests at the next table, Wu Xingshui led his wife Shu Su toward Zhan Yeqiu.
Wu Xingshui deliberately walked over to Zhan Yeqiu's side, raised her glass, and toasted everyone. Before drinking, she glanced at Zhan Yeqiu, raised her glass to him, and the smile in her eyes was hard to define. Then she tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp, a smile playing on her lips, seemingly with a provocative meaning.
"Please enjoy your meal and have a good time. My wife and I will take our leave now." Wu Xingshui said with a smile, put his arm around his wife Shu Su's waist, glanced at Zhan Yeqiu one last time, and turned to go to the next table to offer a toast.
Zhan Yeqiu remained calm and composed throughout, unaffected in the slightest by Wu Xingshui's deliberate provocation.
YoYo Immersive Rice Cooking automatically blocks out external interference.
Soon, the banquet ended, and Zhan Yeqiu suddenly noticed that Youyou had fallen asleep with her head in the bowl.
Startled, Zhan Yeqiu hurriedly lifted Youyou's head, wiped her mouth and hands, and prepared to go back.
Spring has arrived, and children tend to get sleepy at midday.
Zhan Yeqiu had just picked up Yoyo and taken a few steps when he was suddenly stopped by a voice behind him, "Second Young Master Zhan."
Turning around, she saw Wu Xingshui smiling as she walked towards her, holding a gift in her hand.
"Second Young Master Zhan, thank you for attending my wedding. This is a return gift; it may be modest, but it is a token of my gratitude." Wu Xingshui handed the exquisite gift box to Zhan Yeqiu.
Zhan Yeqiu accepted it and casually said, "May you have a long and happy marriage."
Wu Xingshui smiled and bowed her head, "Thank you."
"See you later." Zhan Yeqiu said these two words and turned to leave.
Wu Xingshui stood there, watching Zhan Yeqiu's back. He was 100% certain that Zhan Yeqiu did not recognize him.
"Star Water".
Wu Xingshui withdrew her gaze, turned around, put her arm around Shu Su's waist, and asked softly with her eyes lowered.
"What's wrong, honey?"
Shu Su was stunned for a moment, then her lips curled up, her eyes filled with an embarrassed smile, and a blush spread across her face.
Do you know that Second Young Master Zhan?
"I guess we know each other. We met once about 10 years ago, but he doesn't seem to remember me at all."
That's true, he's a member of the Zhan Group, so naturally he wouldn't remember someone as insignificant as him.
After all, the Zhan family agreed to attend the Wu family's wedding only after the Wu family elders sent out invitations several times, hoping for their presence.
Thinking of this, his blood began to boil in his heart, and his killing intent surged like an undercurrent straight to his chest, causing his hands to clench into fists.
