Chapter 673: The Weasel Offers Incense to the Chicken
Guan Jingtan and Shen Xuanzhi came to burn incense and pay their respects on their wedding day. The old man of the Guan family and Cheng Han were old acquaintances, so it was indeed time for them to come.
Both of them were wearing black clothes and came in almost arm in arm.
Last night, Shen Xuanzhi drank Liang Qin so much that he was admitted to the hospital.
He pulled Huo Sijiao aside and said those regretful words. After waking up today, he felt even more depressed. Some things will remain silent forever if they are not released.
But suddenly I got a chance to speak out.
He became restless and could no longer suppress his emotions.
As soon as he entered the room, his eyes fell precisely on Huo Sijiao, and his eyes darkened as he looked at the men's handkerchief in her hand.
She stood with Xie Xubai.
Shen Xuanzhi's urgency for revenge was intertwined with anger, helplessness, and despair, which almost tortured his heart to death.
Guan Jingtan lowered her voice and reminded him, "Be more restrained. You are my husband now. The deal between us is not just a fake marriage. Don't forget the request made by my grandfather."
Shen Xuanzhi's eyes darkened when he thought of the conditions proposed by Mr. Guan.
"You two, be careful, the incense is hot."
"Thank you very much."
Shen Xuanzhi respectfully burned incense.
He guessed that Cheng Han's death might not be an accident, but was just like the blood feud he carried.
He was harmed by the Lu family.
After burning incense, he walked back past Huo Sijiao and paused. Finally, he walked forward and said his condolences to Qiao Xi.
Guan Jingtan pulled Qiao Xi aside and talked to her for a long time.
"Grandfather said that after you gave Wenli acupuncture last night, his complexion is much better today. He is not as irritable anymore, which shows that it is effective." Guan Jingtan hopes that Qiao Xi can completely cure Guan Wenli.
Qiao Xi said hoarsely, "I'm just experimenting. If it works, that's great. If not, then we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."
She had not fully mastered the Lingshu Nine Needles.
There was really no other way last night, so I gave Cheng Han acupuncture, holding on to a glimmer of hope.
But with God's mercy, she actually succeeded!
"Guan Wenli has been ill for too long. I am currently only suppressing the disease and cannot completely cure it."
"That's good enough." Guan Jingtan looked at Qiao Xi and glanced at Huo Sijiao. "Miss Huo, can we talk further?"
Shen Xuanzhi and Huo Sijiao seemed to still be in contact, and she didn't want Huo Sijiao to waste her time on Shen Xuanzhi.
If a person suppresses his emotions for too long, it is inevitable that love will surge.
Shen Xuanzhi has infinite hatred and infinite love in his heart, love and hate are intertwined.
It tore his soul apart and twisted it.
People are inevitably greedy. They want both love and revenge, which leads to... After getting married, Shen Xuanzhi's eyes when looking at Huo Sijiao became even more unconcealable.
Even she could see it clearly, let alone other people who knew about it.
Huo Sijiao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's go over there."
She pointed to a secluded corridor, then said something to her mother Dujuan and took Guan Jingtan there.
Xie Xubai glanced at Shen Xuanzhi and said softly, "If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. Some people have countless opportunities to turn back, but they choose to turn back when it is impossible to do so. This is what it means to be undestined. In this case, don't add to the troubles of others."
He could understand that Shen Xuanzhi had ambitions and hatred in his heart, but he could not agree with his actions.
Lost control after drinking.
Du Juan was also aware of the ambiguous relationship between her daughter and Shen Xuanzhi, so she wiped her tears and said, "Mr. Shen, Jiaojiao was saved by you in the past. Our Huo family owes you a favor. If there is anything I can help you with in the future, please feel free to ask. She has been spoiled since she was a child. As a mother, I always want to provide her with the best life and I can't bear to let her suffer."
She would not accept a divorced man.
Even if Shen Xuanzhi didn't marry Guan Jingtan, she would still consider whether they were a good match.
Unless Shen Xuanzhi is sincere enough, he will marry his daughter to her. She doesn't want her daughter to become the next Liu Huimin!
But... Shen Xuanzhi is married now, and the way he looks at Jiaojiao is so obvious, she feels a little angry.
So he took Xie Xubai's hand again and said, "Seeing that Mr. Shen got a good marriage, I also dream of having a son-in-law like Xiao Xie."
Xie Xubai has a gentle temper and cooperates with her very well.
Shen Xuanzhi's heart seemed to be tightly wrapped like a silk thread, cutting and bleeding.
Du Juan almost said it out loud. She would never allow her daughter to be entangled with a married man, even if Shen Xuanzhi had suffered a great injustice!
Shen Xuanzhi said with a hint of blood in his throat, "Mr. Xie is indeed a good person, but he is a little old. Miss Huo probably doesn't like men who are much older than her."
He was unwilling to accept it.
I always feel that God has treated him so unfairly, why is he not even willing to give him a Huo Sijiao?
The drunken state he had last night seemed to have brought out the long-lost resentment that had been dormant in his bones, and he couldn't take it in his stride.
Seeing that Du Juan was about to speak, Qiao Xi took her hand.
"Mom, you rushed to the capital overnight and haven't rested yet. You and Dad should go back to the villa and rest first. We are here for you."
She used a lot of coaxing and deception to get the bodyguards to take Dujuan and his wife away.
Xie Xubai also left.
Shen Xuanzhi stood in the corner, waiting for Guan Jingtan.
Qiao Xi glanced at him and felt sorry for him, but everything was his own choice. No one was holding a knife to his neck to marry Guan Jingtan. He had agreed to it himself.
But why did he have to be so unclear with Jiaojiao on the first day of his marriage?
If the news gets out, it will be the women whose reputations will be damaged.
Huo Xingzhou pinched her fingers and said, "Don't be distracted, the people from the Chinese Medicine Association are here."
Qiao Xi looked outside and saw that it was true!
The huge group of people was led by Lu Bannong and Lu Yingxue.
Behind him were Vice President Lin Chunsheng and some directors who came to pay their respects.
Lao Chen called out the names.
Lu Bannong's face still showed a look of compassion.
It is said that appearance is determined by the heart. I don’t know how he cultivated the skill of having a Buddha face but a snake heart.
When he entered the door, Lu Bannong's eyes were red and he shed a few tears.
He wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, walked quickly to Cheng Han's mourning hall, his voice choked with sobs.
He covered his face and cried, "Back then, Mr. Cheng and I often communicated and were considered friends. Rumors were rampant outside, but they couldn't change our friendship. After the competition ended that year, the old man left in anger and disappeared. I had no choice but to set the rule of dividing the north and the south, thinking that he would not have the heart to come out to save the dying and the wounded, but I didn't expect..."
These words completely put the blame on Cheng Han.
"We haven't seen each other for over 20 years. When we meet again, we are already separated by life and death."
He held three incense sticks and bowed respectfully, "Mr. Cheng, rest in peace."
When he lowered his head, a secret and chilling smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Cheng Han, you deserve to die!
