After she finished speaking, she saw Yan Ning's puzzled expression and explained, "The youngest son of the Peng family is Peng Shiqing's younger brother. The three members of the Peng family are all sons, and he has an older brother.
I thought about how you had a good relationship with Peng Shiqing and his wife when you first came to Hong Kong, so I thought of taking you to the banquet."
Yan Ning nodded slightly, "Okay, I understand."
It was around four o'clock on Saturday afternoon.
Yan Ning found a light blue everyday dress from the cloakroom and put it on. She styled her hair and put on some light makeup.
You don't have to prepare too grandly for a wedding banquet, just dress a little more delicately than usual.
After packing up, Yan Ning went downstairs with a handbag.
After waiting in the living room for more than ten minutes, Huo Jieyan packed up and went downstairs. The two of them got in the car and set off for the Yidong Hotel.
The vehicle drove for more than twenty minutes and stopped in front of the hotel.
Yan Ning got out of the car and followed Huo Jieyan into the hotel.
The road from the hotel lobby to the banquet hall is decorated with flowers, and a wedding photo of a newlywed couple is placed at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Sister Huo Yan presented a red envelope at the registration office.
Yan Ning took a look at the photo at the door. Peng Shiqing's brother didn't look like him at all.
The bride is very beautiful and at first glance looks a bit like a Hong Kong star.
Yan Ning discovered that there were many beautiful women in 20th Century Hong Kong. After coming to Hong Kong, the girls she met were all beauties of different types.
No wonder Hong Kong holds the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant every year.
Yan Ning remembered that this beauty pageant seemed to have been held since 1973.
After handing out the red envelopes, the two entered the banquet hall, where most of the guests had already arrived.
Huo Jieyan brought Yan Ning inside and was about to find a place to sit down when she saw Mrs. Guan Er and Guan Jiaojiao waving at them at a table not far away.
The two of them walked towards there.
Yan Ning greeted with a smile, "Aunt Lan, Sister Jiaojiao."
"Xiao Ning, come and sit with me." Guan Jiaojiao gestured to the seat next to her.
Yan Ning smiled and walked over to sit down.
Mrs. Guan Er smiled and said, "You are finally here, otherwise we wouldn't even have anyone to talk to."
They sat and chatted for a while, and the seats at their table were gradually filled with people they knew.
During this time, Cheng Jingyi saw Huo Jieyan and Yan Ning coming over to say hello.
At six o'clock, the wedding banquet began.
Just like the scene in the TV series, the bride walked into the hall holding the hand of her father, and the father handed the bride to the groom.
Then the newlyweds say their vows, exchange wedding rings, and the parents of both parties come on stage to speak.
The ceremony was over and the restaurant began to serve the food.
Yan Ning was halfway through her meal when Guan Jiaojiao whispered in her ear, "Xiao Ning, can you accompany me to the bathroom? I think I'm having my period."
Yan Ning understood as soon as she heard it. When she turned her head to look at Guan Jiaojiao, she saw that Guan Jiaojiao's face was a little pale.
Yan Ning stood up and helped Guan Jiaojiao to the bathroom outside the banquet hall.
"Sister Jiaojiao, is your stomach feeling particularly uncomfortable?"
Guan Jiaojiao nodded slightly, "I have a cold constitution, and I always get stomachaches when I have my period."
Yan Ning thought for a moment and said, "Then when you come out of the bathroom, have Auntie Lan take you home quickly."
Guan Jiaojiao hummed softly.
When they arrived at the bathroom, Guan Jiaojiao went into the bathroom.
Yan Ning washed her hands at the sink and touched up her lipstick.
The bathroom door suddenly opened, and then a voice came from the door.
"Peng Shijie is such a sucker! He dares to marry any woman in that circle, and he's not afraid that Wang Tingting will cheat on him."
As soon as he finished speaking, two girls in their twenties walked in.
Yan Ning took a look in the mirror and thought that these two people should be the daughters of a wealthy family who came to attend the banquet.
The two ladies who came in saw someone in the bathroom, paused, and looked at each other.
The lady in the white dress looked at Yan Ning, "I wonder which family this lady is from? It seems like this is the first time I've seen you."
Yan Ning ignored the two of them. She slowly put away her lipstick, looked in the mirror to make sure her makeup was fine, then turned and left the bathroom.
"Hey... you are such a person, you have no manners or manners at all." The lady in the white dress said dissatisfiedly to Yan Ning's back.
Yan Ning came out of the bathroom and stood in the corridor at the door waiting for Guan Jiaojiao.
"Do you think Peng Shijie knows about Wang Tingting's past?"
"You know, the Peng family is also a wealthy family. It's no big deal for them to investigate someone."
"I heard that Wang Tingting was with Wu Shao before, and the relationship between the Wu family and the Peng family is not very good.
Now that Wang Tingting and Peng Shijie are married, Peng Shijie will have to be inferior to Wu Shao from now on."
“…”
Yan Ning was speechless. The gossip inside could be heard. It was her fault that her hearing was too good. It was hard for her not to hear it.
Sure enough, the restrooms in banquet halls are all gossip hotbeds.
After waiting for a few minutes, Guan Jiaojiao still didn't come out. The two ladies who had just entered opened the bathroom door and walked out.
When the two men saw Yan Ning still standing at the door, they were stunned for a second, then they rolled their eyes and left.
Yan Ning sneered, wondering where this simple-minded naive person came from.
"It's you!" A slightly angry voice sounded from the other end of the corridor.
Yan Ning turned around and saw that it was the man who had stopped her at Gangcheng Railway Station.
I think his name was...Li something?
Li Hongzhi walked towards Yan Ning with a gloomy face. "What you held that day wasn't a wooden cannon, so what was it that shot into my body? Why couldn't they find it out at the hospital?"
That afternoon, he and his men lay on the ground for more than two hours before they were discovered by their own men.
When he woke up, he was in the hospital, and he had flashbacks of the woman pressing something against him.
He could feel something entering his body and then immediately passed out, but the doctor couldn't find anything after examination.
But he always felt inexplicably unwell, especially when he wanted to get angry, his waist would hurt like needles.
But I went to the hospital and did all the tests, but still nothing was found.
Unfortunately, the woman couldn't find her whereabouts, and there was no way to find anyone to ask her about it.
Li Hongzhi didn't expect to meet that woman here today.
Judging from her clothes and the place she appeared, it is not difficult to guess that this woman is a rich girl from a family in Hong Kong.
I just don’t know which one it is?
Yan Ning knew it from his expression. She had thought that he knew her identity, but he didn't dare to cause trouble for her because he was concerned about the Ning family.
It looks like they haven't found out her identity yet, so she looks so angry.
Yan Ning laughed sarcastically, "You should be thankful that I didn't take the wooden cannon, otherwise you wouldn't have the chance to stand here today.
As for what it is, I certainly can’t tell you, but if you want to feel it again, I can help you.”
