The city.
Outside a large shopping mall.
Jiang Chunmei, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family, along with five or six other wives from the extended family, were waiting with their children for their drivers to pick them up from the parking lot.
They had been cooped up for over half a month. While the adults could endure it, the children couldn't. On this seemingly safe day, these women had brought their children to the play area.
Suddenly, a piercing screech of brakes?
Two extended vans stopped by the roadside.
Before Jiang Chunmei and the other women and children could react, over a dozen burly men jumped out of the vehicles. They were all masked, unarmed, and charged forward with bare hands.
"What are you doing?"
"Mom, I'm scared!"
"Don't touch my child!"
The mothers shrieked, shielding their children.
"If you don't want to die, don't make a fuss. Come with us, and you might live. Otherwise, we'll kill you all right now, and we won't spare the children. Damn it, get in the cars."
A leading bandit yelled ferociously.
The mothers were stunned.
The children all started crying in fear!
However, for these women and children, even if they fought back with all their might, they wouldn't change anything. They would still be taken away, and perhaps a few would die directly.
Two or three minutes later.
The two vans sped away...
Long Ding Hotel.
Upon seeing Lin Qingzhu arrive, some of the younger members at the table of the Ma family, who had been neglected, stood up. The Ma family and the Lin family were bitter enemies, and their eyes burned with hatred upon seeing each other.
"Sit down, all of you!"
Ma Sanchun berated with a dark expression.
He didn't outwardly show his excitement but revealed a sinister grin. He looked at Lin Qingzhu as if she were already dead, a lewd smile playing on his lips.
At this moment.
Lin Qingzhu and Lin Feng, ignoring the various gazes around them, walked directly to the Qin family's table. Many guests, seeing this scene, remained standing but fell silent.
"What is the meaning of this?"
Qin Hanshan looked coldly at Lin Qingzhu.
"Mr. Qin, it's your family's celebration. Even if you didn't invite me, I had to come. One hundred million is my gift, and also a token of sincerity. I, this humble woman, have come specifically to apologize."
Lin Qingzhu explained calmly.
This woman, nicknamed Bamboo Leaf Green, was someone who wouldn't hesitate to kill, but even with her fighting prowess, she had to bow her head in matters concerning the survival of her family.
If it were just the Ma family and the Black Tiger Hall, Lin Qingzhu might have had a sliver of a chance to fight back, but with the Qin family involved, her Lin family was no match.
"You've come to apologize?"
Qin Hanshan narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lin Qingzhu.
"Yes, a sincere apology. I implore Mr. Qin to mediate with Mr. Ma. Our Lin family was ignorant before, we were ungrateful. Please leave our Lin family a path to survival!"
Lin Qingzhu appeared somewhat humble at this moment.
"Hahaha!"
Qin Hanshan let out three loud laughs. He pointed to his son on the stage, then to the Ma family's position, and finally, after scanning the entire venue, he gave Lin Qingzhu a look of contempt.
"What do you mean, Mr. Qin?"
Lin Qingzhu slightly furrowed her brows.
"Bamboo Leaf Green, I am an elder, and by rights, I shouldn't bully you. But you are too naive. Do our Qin family and Ma family lack one hundred million dollars?"
"May I ask, Mr. Qin, how much money would be enough?"
"No amount is enough."
Qin Hanshan suddenly widened his eyes and said arrogantly, "The wedding ends, and it will be the demise of the Lin family. I want all your properties. Your entire family must die."
As soon as these words were spoken.
The entire venue erupted in shock!!!
Although Qin Hanshan's voice wasn't very loud, the venue was deathly quiet, and everyone heard him clearly. Qin Hanshan had openly declared their doom, an open declaration to annihilate the Lin family!
"I knew it would be like this!"
"The Ma family is holding back a big move!"
"The Lin family is definitely not going to survive this time!"
"Hey, speaking of which, will Jiang Xiaoyao intervene?"
"I bet she won't..."
The entire scene buzzed with whispers again.
The dignitaries and celebrities, who also enjoyed gossip, especially those who were not on good terms with the Lin family, were even gloating. As for those who lusted after Lin Qingzhu, they were somewhat regretful!
"Miss Lin, must you be so utterly destructive?"
Lin Feng, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"Kid, you are not worthy of speaking to me."
Qin Hanshan didn't even deign to look at Lin Feng.
"Yes, I am not worthy, but I must say it. Your son lost an ear, the Niu and Ma families lost their sons, but did our Lin family not lose anyone? We lost far more!"
"Stop your damned nonsense. Even if your entire Lin family is wiped out, you can't compensate for even one of my son's ears. Damn it, Ye Zixiao, that son of a bitch, he will die the most miserably."
After making such harsh remarks publicly.
Qin Hanshan actually looked at Jiang Xiaoyao.
"Mr. Qin, please calm your anger."
Jiang Xiaoyao did not speak, but Tang Keke smiled and said, "On this joyous occasion, fighting and killing is inauspicious. Let's hold the wedding first, and then we can discuss it later!"
"Yes, Old Qin, please calm down."
"Let them leave first, they won't be able to run away."
"The wedding still needs to be held!"
A large group of officials began to persuade him.
They were not afraid of the situation escalating. Even if Lin Qingzhu died here today, these officials would not care. The reason they spoke was solely to appease Tang Keke.
"Alright, let's hold the wedding first!"
Qin Hanshan withdrew his gaze.
He waved to the host on stage, signaling him to continue and finish the wedding ceremony first. Moreover, acting out here would make his Qin family seem petty.
After all.
Only two people from the Lin family had arrived!
"Groom, do you take..."
"A guest has arrived!!!"
As the host began to speak, a voice called out from outside the closed banquet hall doors for the third time. Before the words had even fallen, another commotion erupted from outside?
"Holy crap, what's going on?"
"Hey, you stop right there."
"Someone, someone come, block them."
One urgent voice after another rang out.
Just as everyone in the venue had no idea what was happening? A scuffle broke out outside the doors, and then the doors burst open with a bang. Two security guards were thrown in.
The next second.
Something flew in?
It was large and rectangular?
Boom—
A large, black coffin, along with its lid, crashed into the center of the venue. The sturdy coffin didn't break, but the lid flew off.
"Holy crap!!!"
"What the hell is this?"
"Oh my god, it's a coffin!"
"Who's here?"
The grand wedding venue finally erupted with the loudest gasp since the beginning. Those closest to the coffin quickly stood up and shuffled backward noisily.
The Ma family all stood up.
Even Qin Hanshan, who had just sat down, and the large group of officials instinctively stood up to investigate. Only Tang Keke and Jiang Xiaoyao remained still.
The lighting technician seemed possessed,
Shining the spotlight beam towards the entrance.
Under the spotlight, Ye Zixiao walked forward, dressed in a black suit and gleaming patent leather shoes, with his hands behind his back, a cigarette dangling from his lips, exuding the air of a seasoned rogue, walking with immense swagger.
He was followed by his younger brother-in-law, Lin Bin.
In Lin Bin's hand was held a dazzlingly white, large funeral wreath. On it was prominently displayed a photo—a wedding photo of Qin Tian and Ma Ya'ai from outside.
Beneath the photo, eight gilded characters were pasted—"Husband and Wife Buried Together, A Century of Harmony!"
"Damn it, the mad dog is here!"
"It's over, it's completely ruined now!"
Lin Qingzhu and Lin Feng, who had been standing by the sidelines, looked at Ye Zixiao and Lin Bin and saw their already embarrassed faces instantly cloud over.
If this wedding was disrupted.
Even the King of Heaven himself couldn't save the Lin family!
