Chapter 139: Chapter 139 Descending from the Sky

Looking at the earnest Zhang Shuai, Huang Jin felt very gratified.

"Don’t worry, I won’t send you to your death."

Huang Jin said solemnly, "Listen to me carefully. Once the engagement banquet begins later, you will..."

While Huang Jin was instructing Zhang Shuai, the banquet hall on the top floor of the East Sea Grand Hotel was already filled with people from the top forces of East Sea.

As a leading family in East Sea Province City, the Chen Family’s engagement banquet naturally would not lack guests; even the ability to enter was something ordinary prestigious families did not possess.

The people from the Xiao Family watched one VIP after another, barely able to conceal the excitement on their faces.

"Is this the power of the Chen Family? It’s just an engagement banquet, and so many big shots have come of their own accord. Won’t it be even more lively when Chen Kun and Yi Yi get married?"

From the Xiao Family’s side, Luo Jun said excitedly.

Xiao Qing, standing beside him, was also full of excitement but pretended to be calm, boasting arrogantly, "Of course! The Chen Family is one of the top families in East Sea Province City. My son-in-law is the future patriarch of the Chen Family!"

Luo Jun quickly nodded: "My wife is right!"

Xiao Tianquan frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "The engagement banquet is about to start; all of you shut up!"

His face was very unsightly. Although it was the engagement banquet between the Chen and Xiao families, only three members from the Xiao Family were allowed to enter here, and they were even placed at the last table nearest to the banquet hall entrance.

This made Xiao Tianquan extremely unsatisfied, but he dared not show it, keeping his dissatisfaction in his heart.

Xiao Qing and Luo Jun promptly closed their mouths.

Xiao Tianquan suddenly looked at Xiao Qing solemnly and said, "The Long Family Steward put out a reward of one billion on the dark web to have Qin Chuan assassinated, and no one took it. At today’s engagement banquet, that kid might very likely show up. Have you made all the arrangements I asked you to?"

Xiao Qing hastily said, "Father, you can be completely at ease. Around the East Sea Grand Hotel, I’ve already arranged for our strongest lineup from the Xiao Family."

"Besides, the Chen Family has also arranged for many powerful individuals in secret, ensuring that if that kid comes, he won’t even be able to take one step into the banquet hall!"

"Moreover, his sister has already been watched by the martial artist I sent. Even if Qin Chuan really makes it here, I’ll use his sister’s life to force him to leave."

Xiao Tianquan nodded without saying anything more.

Even though he knew that Xiao Qing’s arrangements were foolproof, and there were also preparations from the Chen Family, for some reason, he still felt very uneasy.

Luo Jun quietly sat on the side, his face full of excitement as he watched the dignitaries chat and laugh.

At this moment, in the banquet hall’s rest room.

Ouyang Ying asked seriously, "Son, have you thought it through? There’s still time to back out now."

Chen Kun nodded, his expression calm as he said, "Mom, you don’t need to worry. It’s just a marriage alliance. After today, I can rightfully meddle in Xiao Family affairs. Once I completely control the Xiao Family, that woman will be of no value to me."

Ouyang Ying said with relief, "Since you’ve thought it through, I won’t say more. No matter what you plan to do, your mother will support you!"

Chen Kun said, "Thank you, Mom!"

Ouyang Ying suddenly looked helpless and said, "The engagement banquet is about to start, and you still refuse to tell me if your brother is coming back?"

Chen Kun smiled mysteriously, "Mom, you might as well stop asking. Isn’t it better to have a bit more anticipation for such things?"

Ouyang Ying glared at Chen Kun and said in annoyance, "You two brothers, always finding ways to amuse yourselves at my expense."

Just then, her brows furrowed, and she said coldly, "I don’t know what your aunt is up to, not showing her face early on such a good opportunity to network with more powerful people. She can’t rely on me forever, can she?"

Chen Kun smiled and comforted her, "Mom, don’t be angry. Auntie is just like that, without much ambition. Controlling a small family like the Huang Family is enough for her!"

Ouyang Ying nodded, then looked at Chen Kun and said, "Son, your aunt is the only relative I have back home, and Jun Xiang is also your cousin. You must look out for them in the future!"

Chen Kun said earnestly, "Mom, you can rest assured. Once I have significant power, I will definitely not forget about Auntie and Cousin."

Although he didn’t think highly of Huang Junxiang, he understood that this uneducated good-for-nothing was the precious son of his aunt, Ouyang Mei, and that he would assist him for the sake of his mother’s face.

Ouyang Ying nodded in satisfaction, smiling as she said, "Alright, it’s about time, let’s go out too!"

"Okay!"

The mother and son entered the banquet hall together.

"Mrs. Chen, Young Master Chen, congratulations, congratulations!"

"Young Master Chen is truly a young talent, predestined by Elder Mr. Chen to be the future Family Head. If it weren’t for Young Master Chen already having an engagement, I would have wanted to introduce my daughter to him."

"Young Master Chen is so young, yet he already possesses Elder Mr. Chen’s grace. His future achievements are bound to surpass those of Elder Mr. Chen."

...

As soon as Chen Kun made an appearance, he immediately received praise from all the big shots present.

Although today was the engagement banquet of the Chen Family and the Xiao Family, Elder Patriarch Chen Sheng did not attend. Instead, the entire event was managed by Ouyang Ying and her son Chen Kun, with even the current Family Head of the Chen Family, Chen Baiqiang, not yet in attendance.

From this, it was evident that the Chen Family didn’t place much importance on this engagement banquet.

Although many guests arrived, most of them came on their own initiative.

Facing everyone’s praise, Chen Kun thanked them repeatedly, responding with utmost humility.

Ouyang Ying’s face was also full of smiles. Chen Kun was her son, and naturally, she was very happy to hear him being praised by everyone.

"I am extremely grateful that all of you could take time out of your busy schedules to attend my son’s engagement banquet. On behalf of the Chen Family, I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone, thank you!"

Ouyang Ying stood in the middle of the hall, smiling broadly as she spoke.

"Applause..."

The venue immediately erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Ouyang Ying announced loudly, "I declare the engagement banquet of the Chen Family and Xiao Family, now begins! Please welcome the bride onto the stage!"

Following her words, an intense round of applause once again filled the room.

"Yi Yi, it’s your turn! Hurry onto the stage!"

In the resting area next to the banquet hall, Xiao Qing, upon hearing Ouyang Ying’s words, urged with excitement on her face.

Xiao Mengyi bit her red lip tightly, her face full of reluctance; she was unwilling to marry but was unable to change anything.

At this moment, inside the vast banquet hall, everyone was waiting for the bride to appear.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

But just then, two corpses fell from the sky, crashing heavily onto the floor in the middle of the banquet hall.

"Ahh..."

After a few seconds of silence, the venue suddenly emitted screams of terror.

Ouyang Ying, who had just been standing in the center of the banquet hall, stood frozen in place, her face expressionless. Her blue cheongsam was splattered with a lot of fresh blood, and even her face was covered with it.

"Mom!"

Chen Kun took a quick step forward, protecting Ouyang Ying behind him, his expression already darkening to the extreme.
