Chapter 134 Chaos
The waiter folded his hands in front of him and bowed respectfully. "I'm sorry for soiling your clothes. I'm Mr. Duan Jingyao's assistant—Wu Ping."
Since he's Duan Jingyao's man, he's one of us. Qin Mu turned around, washed his hands, and wiped them carefully with a tissue. "You deliberately lured me out. What's the matter?"
Wu Ping relayed the details: "A signal blocker has been installed in the banquet hall, preventing any internet traffic from reaching them. Duan Xi has kidnapped Bai Yujin, intending to incriminate Mr. An's parents and force Rui Ming into the scheme."
Qin Mu frowned, "Has he been tied up?"
"Yes, Mr. Duan only received the news that Bai Yujin was kidnapped, and he didn't know where she was taken. According to the letter from the Lu family, someone sent a forged letter to Lu Zhong, directly pointing to the Meng couple."
After learning that Bai Yujin was kidnapped, Lu Zhong immediately rushed back home. As soon as he entered the door, someone came to deliver a letter, leaving the housekeeper no chance to intercept it.
The letter mentioned the matter of the real and fake daughter, complaining that the Meng family raised the Lu family's daughter as if she were their own daughter, but the Lu family made Meng Anran lose her childhood and suffer. The Lu family must be taught a lesson.
The entire article did not reveal the identity, but was written in the voice of the Meng family couple, which was obviously a frame-up.
He deliberately planned a charity reception and sent invitations to Ruiming, Yunduan, and the Lu family, luring them out of Beijing and heading to Hai City. He blocked the signal so they couldn't receive any news from Beijing, and took this opportunity to kidnap Bai Yujin and frame Mengrong and Su Wanman.
By the time they leave here, the matter will probably be a foregone conclusion, and the Lu Group will have already declared war on the Meng family.
By then, even if Meng Anran didn't want to be hostile to the Lu family, she would be forced to fight back.
Haha, Duan Xi performed this scene really well.
Lu Zhong went to great lengths to destroy the Lu family. Did he dig up the Duan family's ancestral grave?
"Got it. Thank Duan Jingyao for me." Qin Mu grabbed his suit jacket, opened the bathroom door and left.
Inside the venue.
Duan Xi spoke eloquently on the stage, "This time, Qinghe will launch a fundraising campaign to raise funds for left-behind children in remote mountainous areas so that they can also have a warm winter..."
As soon as she finished speaking, a sudden sound of electricity was heard in the venue.
Like the harsh sound of a microphone pointed at a speaker.
Duan Xi quickly turned off the microphone, but the sound didn't disappear. She anxiously ordered the staff at the stage: "Go and turn off all the speakers!"
"It's turned off!" The staff couldn't stand the sound. The audio system in the venue had been turned off long ago, but the sound still didn't stop.
That proves that the sound is coming from the hotel's amplifier broadcast, and it must be turned off in the control room.
"Contact the hotel waiter!" Duan Xi covered her ears. The harsh sound seemed to pierce her eardrums. The unbearable physical discomfort made her unable to maintain her previous calmness and her expression became a little ferocious.
Some people tried to leave the venue, but found that both the side door and the main door were locked and they could not leave.
The sound of electric buzzing became louder and louder, and the glasses in the guests' hands and on the table broke with a ping-pong sound. The venue was suddenly in chaos. Many people were frightened and squatted on the ground in panic, covering their ears with their hands to try to block out the destructive sound.
The scene was a mess.
Meng Anran wore the earplugs that Lu Yi had handed her earlier, leaning casually against the wall and watching the people in the field wailing in pain indifferently.
Lu Yi was such a ruthless guy. He notified Lu Heng to leave early, but left her here instead. He had no loyalty at all.
His gaze slowly fell on Duan Xi on the stage. He saw that she was no different from the other guests. Her once peaceful face was now distorted with pain, the veins on her forehead bulged, and her whole face turned the color of pig blood.
If Qin Mu didn't have the phone with her, she really wanted to take a few pictures and make them into emoticons and post them on Weibo.
If you are exposed to this high-intensity beeping sound for a long time, not only the glass but also your eardrums will be broken.
The noise lasted for about ten minutes, and when it stopped, everyone was still temporarily deafened.
Meng Anran was wearing noise-canceling earplugs and couldn't feel much change. Qin Mu came back at some point and pulled her out through the side door. Only then did she realize that the farce was over.
More than thirty security personnel rushed into the venue and helped the guests out. The main door was also opened and medical staff from the hotel came to check the situation.
"Quick, get everyone out!"
"The eardrum is bleeding! Doctor, come here quickly!"
"This person is in transient shock and needs to be sent to the hospital immediately! Where's the ambulance?! Hasn't the ambulance arrived yet?!"
Duan Xi was helped up by two bodyguards. His hair was disheveled and he completely lost the elegance and intelligence of the "President Duan" he had just been.
She looked dazed, with the sound of electricity still lingering in her ears. As she stepped down from the stage, she subconsciously looked around the venue.
Lu Heng, Qin Mu and Meng Anran have all disappeared.
Who was behind this, ruining her cocktail party and the reputation of Qinghe Club?
Duan Xi withdrew his gaze and was helped away from the side door.
Then she saw Duan Jingyao running towards her with an anxious look on his face. Although she couldn't hear him, she could hear him calling "Auntie" and saw the undisguised panic in his eyes.
Duan Xi's restless heart suddenly calmed down a little. It didn't matter. No matter whether it was Lu Heng or Meng Anran who did it, at least he still had Duan Jingyao as his trump card.
If this card is used well, it will be a royal flush.
Duan Jingyao ran to Duan Xi, replaced the bodyguard's position and supported her, "Auntie, are you okay?"
When there was no response, the bodyguard next to him explained, "Mr. Duan, the boss can't hear you right now. You need to go to the hospital to check if your eardrum is damaged."
"Hurry up and prepare the car." Duan Jingyao glanced at the report, helped Duan Xi out of the venue, and went to the lounge to let her relax.
Duan Xi lay down on the sofa, one hand on his forehead, eyes closed, looking very uncomfortable.
Duan Jingyao just stood by silently.
He knew everything. The accident at the venue was caused by Lu Yi.
It would be better to say that he was an accomplice because he was the one who told Lu Yi where the hotel's amplifier control room was.
After learning what Lu Yi wanted to do and making sure that Meng Anran could be spared, he chose to betray Duan Xi without hesitation.
No, it should be said that he is no longer a chess piece in Duan Xi's hand.
It was Duan Xi who stole his life and Meng Anran's life.
Duan Xi had deceived him for more than ten years. After knowing the truth, he lay dormant and played along with Duan Xi for another five years. Let's regard today's scene as a small revenge on Duan Xi.
In the future, he will repay Duan Xi a thousandfold for the pain he experienced in those years due to hatred and the regret he felt when he discovered that he had been deceived for more than ten years.
In the silent space, Duan Jingyao had resentful thoughts in his mind, but he did not show it on his face at all.
Duan Xi recovered, and after the buzzing sound in her ears gradually faded away, she slowly sat up, her eyes fell on Duan Jingyao, and she said abruptly: "Jingyao, stay in Hai City this time. Go to the airport to help your aunt pick up someone the day after tomorrow."
Duan Jingyao nodded obediently, then asked curiously, "Who are you picking up?"
Duan Xi put on her shoes and looked up at him, her lips curved meaningfully, "Lu Qingcheng."
