Chapter 154: Engagement Banquet - Massacre (6)
Bai Qingfeng raised his eyes with difficulty and looked at Meng Shuyue who was standing opposite him.
She straightened her back and looked at him coldly, as if she was looking at a piece of trash.
The distance between them was very close, as if he could reach her with just a few steps.
But at this moment, they seemed as far apart as the Chu River and Han Street, yet clearly separated.
Everything around him seemed to have receded. He looked at the woman in front of him, breathing so heavily that she seemed to be unable to breathe. His ears were buzzing, and his chest felt like it was stuffed with a ball of cotton. He couldn't utter a word of apology.
It was not until the shiny silver handcuffs were put on his hands that Bai Qingfeng woke up from his dream and came to his senses. He staggered as his tall body was pulled.
The shutter sounds of the cameras beside me kept coming.
He is the heir of the Bai family and the national male god who is popular throughout Hong Kong City. How could he have ever been in such an embarrassing situation?
At this moment, the most humiliating scene was captured by reporters!
"Mr. Bai, you are suspected of violently assaulting others in public. Please come with us!"
Seeing Bai Qingfeng was about to be taken away, Chu Yanyan was terrified and was about to chase him, but the next second she was shocked by another silver handcuffs put on her hands.
"Ms. Chu, according to the video footage just now, you deliberately fabricated witnesses to force the kind-hearted people in Hong Kong to give up their donations, and you are suspected of obstructing the police in their investigation. Moreover, our Song Shiyu was a hero in saving people, and your behavior is equivalent to indirect murder. The circumstances are serious, and you must come with us!"
Before she could turn around to ask Chu's father and mother for help, she and Brother Wu were taken away from the banquet hall together.
When the guests saw that the male and female protagonists of the host's family were captured, they said goodbye to Chu's father and mother awkwardly as if they were fleeing.
Just as the first guest was about to leave.
Song Shixuan and Song Shijing blocked the gate, blocking everyone's way.
"You can't leave!"
"Comrade police, we want to sue all the guests present!"
The guests crowded at the door suddenly felt that something was wrong and began to panic.
"What are you accusing us of? You are the ones being threatened. We know nothing. We just believe whatever you say!"
"Yes, we are here to have a wedding banquet. Are you planning to arrest all 100 of us?"
The guests were all very excited. If they were not all well-known people in Hai City or Gang City, they would have rushed out of the banquet hall like a swarm of aunts rushing to buy vegetables in the market.
Facing the accusations from the crowd, Song Shixuan raised the camera in his hand, stared at the group of people in front of him who were eyeing him hungrily, and helped Meng Shuyue walk to the door and walked in front of the crowd.
Meng Shuyue pursed her lips and looked into the pairs of eyes in front of her. She raised her hand and pointed out all the people who had just spoken ill of her. Her hoarse voice echoed throughout the banquet hall.
"You, you, and you all! You all poured red wine on me."
"And you, you hit me with a plate!"
Meng Shuyue turned around and pointed his finger at his forehead, "This is the evidence!"
Finally, she pointed at Chu's mother who had just punched and kicked her, "And you, you broke the wound on my body. The camera just recorded all the violence you inflicted on me. Do you still want to deny it?"
Her words were hoarse but powerful, striking hard at everyone who had just bullied her.
Chu's father and mother looked at each other and became even more panicked.
They had just arrived in Hai City and were unfamiliar with the place, so they had to rely on these connections to rescue their daughter and son-in-law. They didn't want to offend everyone before their own Chinese medicine clinic was established.
The two stood opposite Meng Shuyue and spoke for all the guests.
"Ms. Meng, please forgive me when you can. You just said those words, so what's wrong with the people here looking down on you?"
Chu's father patiently tried to persuade her to value peace.
Chu's mother also echoed from the side, speaking in a decent manner with a Hong Kong accent but with harsh words that pierced Meng Shuyue's heart.
"Mr. Meng, you are a woman, do you really want to go against so many people? Do you think we don't know? Don't you just want them to pay more money?"
"I'm telling you, I'll give you all the money. You're worth the price!"
Chu's mother took out her wallet and threw ten-dollar bills one by one into Meng Shuyue's face.
The brand new money seemed to have been taken out of the bank. The sharp edge scratched her face, like a steel wire scraping across her cheek. The sharp stinging sensation fell from her cheek little by little to a corner of the deepest part of her heart.
The head that had just been hit by Bai Qingfeng's fist was aching slightly, and there were sharp buzzing sounds in his ears.
Like the sound of a distant bell, calling out to the dusty homeland across time and space, bringing with it rolling sand and dust.
After a burst of thunder and sea, the clear scene in front of her eyes suddenly appeared as if the clouds and mist had been cleared away and she was caught off guard.
As ten-yuan bills fell on her face one after another, she seemed to see colorful ribbons all over the sky and in front of her was a huge cake she had never seen before.
Next to the cake, her mom and dad smiled as they put a birthday hat on her, held the gift in their hands and sang the most beautiful Happy Birthday song to her.
The faces of Daddy and Mommy in my memory gradually overlapped with the cold-blooded Father Chu and the sarcastic Mother Chu in front of me.
"puff!"
Meng Shuyue's pupils shook and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth. Chu's mother, who was covered in blood, was so frightened that she screamed and raised her hand to slap her.
"Ah...ah...you country bumpkin are so disgusting. Who knows if there are any germs in her blood..."
Chu's mother completely forgot that the police were still at the scene and just kept beating people.
If Chu's father hadn't stopped her, she would have lost control long ago.
Song Shijing and Song Shixuan supported her and said worriedly, "Shuyue, why don't we just forget it and ask them to apologize..."
After all, with their strength, they are completely outnumbered against so many important people.
Even if they were caught, they would just be fined, but they actually offended everyone and blocked all their future paths.
At this time, Meng Shuyue could not hear what they said at all. He shook off their support and stood firm again.
With her vision blurred, she took a deep breath and tilted her head to look at her parents in front of her, just like she did when she was a child, trying to see clearly the appearance of the parents who loved her deeply when she was a child.
But the more tears flowed, the more blurred their appearance became. As the tears fell, they could never go back.
She looked at Chu's father and mother in front of her, and her choked voice sounded like her when she was a child, opening her chubby little hands and calling them.
"Daddy, Mommy!"
"You are Chu Yanyan's daddy and mommy! You all mean to blame me for saying things I shouldn't have said because I was threatened, and I deserve to be beaten, right?"
"Let me ask you, if it was your daughter who said those self-deprecating words, would you believe it? Would you let her be bullied and laughed at?"
Meng Shuyue stared at the two of them, tears rolling down her cheeks. The words of recognition that were about to come out of her mouth kept rolling around in her mouth, but she finally swallowed them down in grievance.
She knew exactly how they would answer, but she wanted to look up to hear their responses.
It seems that only in this way can she make up her mind for her next decision.
