Volume 1_Chapter 223 Locked in the Cellar



The employees of the [Jin Xiangyu] department often get together to drink heavily, curse from time to time, and are in low spirits.

Mr. Cheng and Zhou Jincheng smiled at each other when they received the news.

They accompanied Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Anqi to try on custom-made dresses. Cheng Anqi was wearing a pink tulle tube top dress, looking like a cute little princess.

Mr. Cheng looked at his daughter with love in his eyes.

Even if his daughter wanted the stars in the sky, he would find a way to pick them down.

In fact, there are planets named after angles.

That was the coming-of-age gift that Mr. Cheng gave to Cheng Anqi.

He dotes on his daughter and can push his own limits.

Mrs. Cheng was wearing a coral velvet cheongsam, looking elegant and decent. The mother and daughter stood together, one was dignified and loving, the other was lively and lovely.

Mr. Cheng is willing to sacrifice his life for these two women.

The engagement party of the Cheng family and the Zhou family was very grand.

In the past, invitations to the engagement party were sent out one month in advance to give those attending the ceremony more time to prepare, but sending them out a week in advance was a bit hasty.

When the celebrities and wealthy received the invitation, they had no time to prepare gifts carefully.

But people of their status, who doesn’t have a few collections? They can only reluctantly take them out to save face.

Lin Xiaotang was also choosing gifts in the collection room.

With one hand on her chin, Lin Xiaotang was very conflicted.

Whenever Fu Hansheng pointed at one, she shook her head.

Fu Hansheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had already prepared the biggest gift, so why did he still care about these things? Lin Xiaotang hugged his arm, pouting reluctantly, "I'd feel like I'd lose out if I gave them any one of them."

The thunder-struck wood pipa, the phoenix tree-carved lyre, calligraphy works by famous masters, paintings, royal jewels, exotic jewelry, and antique jades are all treasures of the family for generations.

"Forget it, let's keep it and pass it on to Sixian and Siqi. Let's go to Dad's wine cellar and get two bottles of wine."

Lin Jianmin loves wine, and there are countless fine and famous wines in his wine cellar.

Lin Jianye would take two bottles to the cemetery from time to time, and most of the liquid went into his stomach.

Lin Xiaotang thought this gift was just right.

"It's a wedding wine, and it can also be our celebratory wine."

When Lin Xiaotang arrived at the wine cellar, Lin Jianye was also there. He was very surprised to see the two people come in.

Lin Xiaotang stated her purpose, and Lin Jianye did not stop her. He took out two bottles and said, "I'm going to have a couple of drinks with your uncle, you guys can do whatever you want."

Lin Xiaotang didn't take it seriously. She and Fu Hansheng quickly selected some wine. When they were about to go out, they found that the door of the wine cellar was closed.

And the two of them don’t have the key! Lin Xiaotang: “.”

Fu Hansheng: “.”

In order to pursue the collectible taste of wine, Lin Xiaotang's father adopted a very traditional way of building a wine cellar, and did not even use a modern ventilation system.

There is, of course, only one entrance.

The door can only be opened from the outside.

They didn’t even have their phones!

Lin Xiaotang tried to lock the door a few times, then gave up struggling. "I wonder if Third Uncle will remember that we are in there when he comes back tonight."

Fu Hansheng didn't know whether it was possible or not. He never placed his hopes on others.

Fu Hansheng grabbed Lin Xiaotang's hand and looked around the wine cellar, looking for a place that could be used as a breakthrough.

There was no modern lighting equipment in the wine cellar, only a portable octagonal lamp that Fu Hansheng held at the entrance, emitting a faint light.

In the dim environment, Lin Xiaotang was not afraid at all, because the big hand holding her was very strong and warm.

Lin Xiaotang expressed her helplessness in her heart about the atmosphere her father pursued. She wondered if her father would still insist if he knew that one day he would let her fall into such a predicament.

Lin Xiaotang felt that if her father had known in advance, he might not even have built the wine cellar.

She is so lucky to have a father who loves her, a husband who loves her, and children who love her very much.

It was a completely different kind of love, but they made a sweet home for her.

The ventilation windows emit divided light, which is soft and somewhat mysterious.

Fu Hansheng turned around and whispered, "Wait here, I'll go up and take a look."

The fan blades turned slowly. Lin Xiaotang took the flashlight and watched Fu Hansheng take a run-up, step on the wall, leap into the air, and grab the edge of the vent wall with both hands.

"careful."

"kindness."

Fu Hansheng climbed onto the windowsill and pressed his body against the wall to avoid being scratched by the fan blades.

Lin Xiaotang looked up at him, her face full of worry.

"You can get out this way."

Fu Hansheng saw clearly that there was a lawn outside and confirmed that there was no problem before turning to look at Lin Xiaotang, "I'll go out first and open the door from the outside later. You wait for me at the door."

How could his girl get out of the dirty vent? Lin Xiaotang pursed her lips and smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for my prince to save me."

He always tried his best to protect her and let her live a relaxed, elegant and decent life.

Snap——

Just as Fu Hansheng was about to leap, a very subtle sound suddenly came from the door.

Both of them had excellent hearing. After exchanging glances, they immediately held their breath and waited for the other to make a sound first.

It would be foolish to reveal your position first without being sure who it is.

Next, there was the sound of the wine rack being pushed over and wine bottles falling to the ground and breaking.

Lin Xiaotang secretly cried out inwardly, oh no, this is an enemy, not a friend!

But who could have gotten into the Lin family’s wine cellar?

Lin Xiaotang blew out the candle in the lantern, walked lightly, and went over to find out what was going on.

Fu Hansheng frowned and wanted to tell her not to act rashly, but the voice was too loud now and would obviously alert the enemy.

Fu Hansheng jumped down the vent and followed Lin Xiaotang.

But Lin Xiaotang was agile and Fu Hansheng was a step slower. In addition, the terrain in the wine cellar was complicated and the vision was dim, so he could no longer find Lin Xiaotang.

The crackling sound continued. Fu Hansheng rubbed his brows and reached out to where the sound came from.

Lin Xiaotang followed the sound and saw a dark shadow committing a crime. The shadow seemed to be very familiar with the wine cellar. Not only could he push down the wine rack accurately, but he could also drag out the built-in wine jars and smash them on the ground.

The entire wine cellar exudes a rich aroma of wine.

Breathing in large amounts of alcohol can also cause coma or even alcohol poisoning.

Lin Xiaotang pulled out a long wine bottle, approached the opponent, and prepared to give a fatal blow! "Hiss——"

Lin Xiaotang was wearing home shoes at home and stepped on the glass without any precautions. The sole of her shoe was pierced and the skin on the sole of her foot was scratched by the glass. The stinging pain made her gasp.

But just this slight sound was enough to attract the attention of the dark shadow, who seemed to be always very alert.

Lin Xiaotang didn't have time to think and was ready to throw the bottle at it, but the black shadow was faster and ran towards the entrance in a flash.

Lin Xiaotang gritted her teeth and tried her best to catch up.

She used to be the one who ran all the way in her high heels in a hurry to sign a contract, so she chose to ignore the injury on her foot.

A dark shadow was running around in front, leaping through the rubble and running towards the door.

Lin Xiaotang threw away her shoes and chased after him, holding a bottle of wine.
