Quick Wear: The villain is a heartthrob, and the boss can't stand it
Chapter 91 Cannon Fodder Gu Tribe Saint (22)
The guests moved aside, and the door of the luxury car, which was the focus of everyone's attention, slowly opened. Long legs stepped out, revealing a face that was extremely handsome.
His facial features are deep, and his eyes vaguely resemble the sharpness of Mr. Luo when he was young. Just a casual glance at him is enough to make people feel terrified.
Could this be... Shao Tingchuan, the one with an incredibly high seniority in the Luo family?
Shao Tingchuan, who was being watched by everyone, didn't care about the looks. After getting out of the car, he walked around to the other door and opened it himself, with his palm facing up as if he wanted to help someone get out.
This... Who is so famous that he actually needs Shao Tingchuan to help him personally?
"Well, that's it." Old Master Luo couldn't bear to see his son looking so worthless. He tapped the floor with his dragon-headed cane and said, "Let's go downstairs and meet my future daughter-in-law."
Meng Tingnian's lips curled up slightly, his eyes full of interest. He watched through the window as Shao Tingchuan carefully helped the person down, his fingertips twitching twice.
Is this still the Shao Tingchuan who could fight the enemy for half a month over a disagreement?
It seems that I am really trapped.
So... could he take advantage of this?
Inside the house, where all the guests were watching with fiery eyes, Shao Tingchuan leaned over, took the soft little hand resting in his palm, and used his strength to help the person out of the car.
The stiletto heels stepped on the bluestone slabs, and the green silk straps climbed up around the slender jade-white calves, and were soon covered by the green long skirt.
The extremely conservative long skirt style, wrapped straight to the wrist, without any jewelry or jade decoration, but the tailoring and silk material alone made it fall softly, making everyone feel as if they were looking at a picture of a beautiful woman with picturesque eyebrows and eyes.
The ultimate collision of figure and face, every part is beautiful and every part is exquisite.
Almost at the moment Sui Yu got off the car, everyone's breathing suddenly stopped. When they realized what was happening, they were extremely envious of Shao Tingchuan.
How could someone be so lucky, born in Rome, and even such a beautiful woman fall in love with him...
It is truly an enviable superior life.
From the moment Sui Yu was helped out of the car by Shao Tingchuan, Luo Sui's desire for luxury cars turned into admiration for Sui Yu, and his eyes became starry almost instantly.
After gazing at her uncle's expression, she stepped forward sweetly and said, "Is this my angelic aunt? I'm Luo Sui, the youngest son of the Luo family's eldest wife. You can just call me Xiao Sui."
Even when a teenager is giving compliments, it feels like he is really giving the compliments.
Shao Tingchuan's eyelashes fluttered, and his sharp gaze turned into admiration for the younger generation. This kid has good eyesight.
Shao Tingchuan was so delighted when he heard the word "little aunt" that he couldn't even turn away the smile on his face.
Although he thought so, Shao Tingchuan still had to pretend, especially when he saw Xie Chi and the others walking in from the door of the old house, his brows suddenly frowned.
Butler Wang had already brought all the guests into the house and seated them tactfully and unobtrusively, making it impossible for them to watch their family's conversation.
Those who are qualified to attend the banquet are not stupid, and naturally they will not stand there just to watch the show.
So the only people left by the car were Sui Yu, Shao Tingchuan, Luo Sui, and Xie Chi and Ji Yanli who were walking towards them.
"Sui Sui, do you mind if they think of you as my...fiancée?" Shao Tingchuan said in a soft voice.
Sui Yu was rarely speechless. When she wanted to come by herself before, the man came to pick her up in person in a showy manner, and he also helped her to reject Yan Yan's invitation to go with him out of guilt.
Now... ask her if she minds here?
"I mind a bit."
Sui Yu smiled and pulled her hand out of his palm, looking at Luo Sui, "Xiao Sui? My name is Sui Yu, call me sister first, auntie sounds so old."
"Ah? Haha...haha...this..." Luo Sui raised his eyes and glanced at his uncle's expression, feeling a little scared.
So I haven't caught up yet? This is really... too exciting!
Xie Chi walked to Sui Yu and stood beside her. He also felt a little angry. When he looked at Shao Tingchuan, he called out "Uncle" provocatively.
"Sui Sui doesn't really look that old, so it's most appropriate to call her sister." Ji Yanli also said secretly.
Luo Sui looked at this and that, his eyes rolling around, as if he had thought of something interesting. The corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled secretly, "Yeah, then... I'll call you sister."
"Sister, you are so beautiful. Let me take you to the old house to see grandpa." Luo Sui changed his words quickly, and took the honorific title for granted.
"Xiao Sui, what are you doing again?" Old Man Luo's voice came from inside the house. He was supported by Meng Tingnian and walked out. His kind voice still revealed majesty. Just one sentence made Luo Sui stand up straight.
He had just dared to act funny in front of his uncle, whom he was not very familiar with, but he didn't dare to say a word in front of Master Luo.
"Grandpa, I won't dare to do it again."
Xie Chi and the others also stood up straight and called out "Grandpa" respectfully.
After Mr. Luo glanced at them, his eyes fell on Sui Yu. There was no sign of scrutiny, but the person being looked at always felt as if he was being seen through.
Seemingly in a very good mood, Mr. Luo did not mention the minor quarrel between the younger generation. A kind smile filled the corners of his wrinkled eyes. "Is this the Sui Sui that Tingchuan often mentioned to me?"
"You are indeed a good kid with good manners. Come and accompany me, an old man, when you have nothing to do. I am old now, and I just like the crowds and the hustle and bustle."
Sui Yu's eyes trembled slightly, and a smile appeared on her face as she curved her eyebrows. "Thank you..."
When her little finger was hooked by a slender fingertip and moved, the smile on Sui Yu's lips became more brilliant. "Thank you for the compliment, old man. I will definitely come when I have the chance in the future."
Shao Tingchuan's heart suddenly relaxed, and he let out a long breath, unable to hide the joy in his heart.
As long as you don't call him "Grandpa", it's no big deal.
This means that the girl has silently accepted his temptation, doesn't it?
Tenderness overflowed from his cold eyes. Shao Tingchuan hooked Sui Yu's little finger and rubbed it tenderly for a few times. But when he looked at Meng Tingnian who was beside the old man, he suddenly became alert.
But the alertness disappeared in a flash, and it seemed as if nothing had happened.
Following the old man into the house, those scrutinizing gazes suddenly subsided and were no longer unscrupulous.
Even if they were curious, they would only take a sneak peek and then look away.
As early as when the Luo family's invitation list came out, many people noticed the name [Sui Yu] at the top of the list.
When you see with your own eyes how the old man protects his son, there is nothing you don’t understand.
It seems that this is Shao Tingchuan's future wife.
But... I still don't know where it came from?
Are there any companies or families with the surname "Sui" in Beijing or other developed provinces and cities?
No matter what they speculated privately, after the birthday banquet began, Luo Wenzhou silenced them all while speaking. They looked over with serious expressions and dared not make any more small movements.
"Thank you all for coming to see me, an old man who is almost buried. As you all know, I have a youngest son, Shao Tingchuan, who is not often at home. He is the one I am most worried about."
"But what everyone probably doesn't know is what he was doing before he returned home. I'd like to take this opportunity while we're all gathered together to make an announcement to you all."
Everyone's attention was drawn to the old man standing on the stage with crutches, and no one noticed the special police officers in suits who were gradually blending in with the guests.
The old man stepped aside, and Shao Tingchuan stepped forward to hold the microphone stand, his fingertips firmly grasping the black gold steel frame. "Before returning to the Luo family, I joined the army."
There was a slight discussion below, but Shao Tingchuan paid no attention and stared closely at Sui Yu. "The last time I went on a mission, I almost died on the way. Fortunately, I was lucky enough not to be killed and returned intact."
"By the way, I brought back something that everyone should be familiar with recently."
As soon as he finished speaking, a lot of dark blue powder floated down from the top of the second floor and was sucked into everyone's body with the flow of air.
Anyone who inhaled the powder would immediately feel their whole body lighten, as if all their tendons and veins were suddenly opened up, and even the blood flow would become extremely fast.
But... a few individuals did not behave like this.
Among them, Meng Tingnian, who was next to the old man, had the biggest reaction.
The old man was eighty years old, and every time he inhaled a little powder he felt like he was several years younger, without any discomfort. However, Meng Tingnian seemed to be being tortured.
The contrast is obvious.
Meng Tingnian covered his chest, half-knelt on the ground with his hands twitching all over, the veins on his forehead and face almost bursting, and he looked up at Shao Tingchuan intently.
"This is a new type of drug that people may take voluntarily or involuntarily." Shao Tingchuan didn't even look at him.
There was an instant uproar from the audience, and the sound of people sucking in their breaths was particularly obvious.
"Tingchuan, don't keep me in suspense at this time. Don't scare me to death and make your sister-in-law faint."
A man in a gray suit, who looked to be in his forties, patted his wife's back to comfort her.
"My last mission before leaving the army was to bring back the raw materials for this new drug so we could develop antibodies to counteract it."
"But... when I was fleeing after being betrayed by a traitor, I accidentally brought back a ready-made antidote."
Out of selfish motives, Shao Tingchuan did not reveal the existence of the Gu Village. Anyway, with the deal between him and Que Wu, it would not be difficult to find a place in Ainan Mountain to grow some soul Gu grass.
Just do your job.
Who would have thought that the stamens of the Soul Gu Grass are extremely poisonous and the pollen can easily make people addicted, but the opposite is true for its petals.
The dark blue petals, displayed under a microscope, are filled with special cells full of vitality, which are countless times ahead of existing genetic modification technology.
It's incredible, but this is the fact. The existence of petals not only solves the threat of new drugs, but also allows them to follow this clue and lure the fish into the trap.
Meng Tingnian was the last big fish they wanted to catch in public for others to see.
It is not difficult to spread such things widely within China, but if it is done secretly, it may be too late for the authorities to notice.
But they were able to quietly infiltrate Beijing and even had tactics specifically targeting high-ranking officials. Such a force is definitely not an ordinary one.
Although Shao Tingchuan was ready to retire, due to these responsibilities, he still cooperated during the time he was back, being low-key when necessary and being wildly high-profile when necessary.
This low-key naturally refers to the fact that his identity has rarely appeared in the public eye since he came back. As for being high-profile... the luxury car is the most obvious manifestation of high profile.
As long as this matter can be resolved, he will follow Sui Sui back to Gu Village.
With his father's strength, protecting that small area would not be a problem, and all the possible dangers would no longer exist.
"Secretary Meng... no, he should be called Meng Moumou now. While in office, he secretly used new drugs to amass wealth and invested it in genetic research, attempting to defy fate."
"Uncle Meng, this is the last time I'll call you that. You've been so ruthless and insane, exploiting your position to harm so many families, for your own life. You've reaped the consequences. What awaits you will be the judgment of Chinese law."
Looking away, Shao Tingchuan's expression was grim. When he found out that Meng Tingnian was in the late stage of cancer, he might understand the mentality of this young man who was in a high position and about to die, but he would never allow such a situation to happen.
If everyone does these evil things out of selfish motives, then such an order will no longer exist.
The special police in the crowd suppressed those who showed symptoms of discomfort. Anyone who participated in it and used those so-called [genetic modification] special drugs would resist the real antidote.
There is nowhere to hide.
The old man’s birthday party only truly began at this time.
Shao Tingchuan pulled Sui Yu off the stage, but his thoughts went back to the day when he went to Gu Village to make a deal with Que Wu.
The firewood was burning brightly. Shao Tingchuan's voice was very steady. "You... is there something wrong? You can't protect the Gu Village, or rather, you can't protect the entire Gu Village."
The soul-gu grass that he could see in that valley appeared in the outside world, but based on Que Wu's personality, it was unlikely that he would take it out to exchange for money, right?
The villagers in the village, who are so formal and behave like NPCs, are fakes that anyone with a discerning eye can see through them. They can only fool the girl who has lived here since childhood. Of course, it is very likely that they cannot be fooled now.
And whenever Que Wu agreed to Sui Yu's request, his lips turned even paler...
Although he didn't know what kind of metaphysics was involved, but... as long as it was within the range of the cannons, he was confident that he could protect the Gu Village.
"Let's make a deal."
"as you wish."
Memories come back.
Shao Tingchuan gritted his teeth. He never expected that Que Wu was so untrustworthy. The heart Gu that he had placed under Sui Sui's pillow was actually crushed to death by him.
Really... I want to beat him up!
