"Boss, there is a reception tonight that you may need to attend in person." Chen Yi suddenly said this to Lei Jinyan when he was about to get off work.

"What kind of reception must I attend, can't you go?" Recently, after Lei Jinyan intentionally alienated Tong Sheng, he had a lot of extra time, but because he was in a bad mood, he would not attend if he could not participate in some social gatherings in the company. , Most of them are done by others.

"This reception is more important this time. Besides, boss, you haven't appeared in public for a while. We should show up occasionally!"

Lei Jinyan didn't question Chen Yi's words at all and casually agreed, "Okay, if you have nothing to do at night, you can go with me."

After hearing what Lei Jinyan said, Chen Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this person agreed directly and did not continue to ask. If he asked a few more questions, he might not know how to answer.

Because he was going to the reception, Lei Jinyan stayed in the company for a while, and then followed Chen Yi to the reception.

Originally, Chen Yi followed Lei Jinyan all the time, but when he arrived at the reception, the man sneaked away. When Lei Jinyan turned around to talk to him, he realized that he was not behind him.

Lei Jinyan frowned and looked around, wondering if this person met someone he knew so he went somewhere else, but he didn't see anyone after looking for a long time, and he was considering whether to call and ask where he was going At the time, a familiar boss came over and looked at him with a smile on his face, "I said, brother, I really want to congratulate you today! After going around, I finally got what I wanted."

Lei Jinyan was baffled after hearing this, "What do you mean by brother? I can't understand it."

"Pretend, just pretend for me, you might already be happy in your heart now! They always think that Mr. Tong will choose the one from the Mu family in the end. I don't think so. You and Mr. Tong have been in love for so many years. Could it be fake? It's only a matter of time before we get together. Don't you think it will be a real success now? But your engagement banquet this time was a bit too hasty. Everyone was caught off guard and had no time to prepare. When will you get married? You must notify in advance when you get married, and I will definitely give you a big gift when the time comes."

Lei Jinyan listened to the other party's ramblings, looking completely out of the ordinary, but after listening for a long time, he finally grasped the point, and he asked in disbelief, "I'm engaged today?"

"That's right, look at what you're asking, you'd never tell me that you didn't know you were engaged today, right! Brother, you're really getting more and more humorous."

Lei Jinyan looked at the other party's smile and almost lost sight of his eyes. His mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't find anything to refute. At this time, several people came to congratulate him. Now Lei Jinyan was really speechless. Puzzled.

What exactly is going on?He finally understood that this so-called reception was actually his engagement banquet, but who could come and tell him why he, the client, didn't know that he was getting engaged?

Lei Jinyan pulled a stiff smile, and after socializing with a few people who came to bless him, he immediately found a corner and called Chen Yi. He believed that Chen Yi must know about this matter. Clearly.

But I don’t know if I’m worried about being scolded by Lei Jinyan. I’ve been calling for a long time but no one answered the phone. When Lei Jinyan was considering whether to ask the waiter to find someone for him, Tong Sheng’s voice suddenly broke in. , "Stop calling, he won't answer."

Hearing the sound, Lei Jinyan raised his head and looked at Tong Sheng. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked the question in his heart, "Xiao Sheng, what's going on?"

Tong Sheng followed his gaze to the crowd behind him, and said quite naturally: "What's going on, that's all, are you satisfied with our engagement banquet?"

Although I already knew the general idea just now, Lei Jinyan couldn't help being surprised when Tong Sheng said it himself, "Xiao Sheng, do you know what I'm talking about? Engagement banquet? You and me?"

"Of course it belongs to you and me. Look at what you said. Do you want me to be with someone else? Lei Jinyan, don't you want to get engaged to me?"

"Of course I am willing, but, but—" Lei Jinyan blurted out without thinking, but then he immediately thought of another thing, and his face immediately changed.

"I knew you were willing. I won't bother with you about the things you said before and the things that angered me. After the night is over, I won't allow you to go back on your word and say something that makes people angry! I'll go and see if the engagement cake is ready, and you entertain the guests first."

After Tong Sheng finished speaking, he went to the kitchen of the hotel, leaving Lei Jinyan completely in a state of bewilderment. On the one hand, he was happy in his heart. It was something he had been thinking about for a long time to be able to really get together with Tong Sheng , but on the other hand, he couldn't help but began to feel uneasy again.

The more he cared, the more he was afraid that the other party would be in danger. Where there was only a little possibility, he didn't dare to take this risk lightly.

Whether or not the engagement banquet should be completed tonight has become a difficult decision for Lei Jinyan at this moment.

At this time, a waiter suddenly walked up to him and said to him, "Sir, there is a customer looking for you outside."

"Looking for me? Did he say who he is?"

"The other party didn't say anything, but he said that he must invite you out."

Lei Jinyan guessed who the other party was, but he couldn't figure out who that person would be for a long time, and then he didn't think about it at all, and just went out to have a look.

The place agreed by the other party was a corner of a garden at the back of the hotel. It was a bit out of the way, and no one would appear here.

Lei Jinyan looked around, but didn't see anyone, and was still wondering if the other party was playing tricks on him, when the sound of a message came from the phone.

He instinctively looked down, but when he saw the familiar number on the phone, his eyes were filled with panic.

"If you want to be engaged to him, I will let him die."

Holding the phone, Lei Jinyan really wanted to throw it out for a moment, but in the end he held back.

At this time, Lei Jinyan felt angry for no reason other than panic. For so many years, no one had dared to threaten him, but recently he was forced by a man who was already dead, and he was powerless to fight. This feeling was terrible, but he didn't even have the slightest chance to resist.

At this moment, various thoughts flashed through Lei Jinyan's mind, maybe he should find a good monk to take Su Linfan, this damned ghost, so that he dare not bother him again.

Lei Jinyan thought about this just now, when he raised his head, Su Linfan was standing behind a big tree not far away with his face covered in blood, looking at him with a strange smile.

This kind of picture is enough to make people scared even in the daytime, but you still see it at night, and you still know clearly in your heart that the other party does not exist in this world at all. Inserting a sharp knife is like giving people a sense of suffocating fear.

Lei Jinyan was so frightened that he took several steps back suddenly, his legs were so weak that he almost couldn't stand up.

He was panting violently, just looking at the terrifying picture not far away, he felt that he was actually quite brave, if it was someone else, he might have already screamed.

To be honest, for a moment, he also wanted to scream, but the sound was stuck in his throat and he couldn't scream. In the end, his heart couldn't take it anymore, and Lei Jinyan had to turn his eyes away. Yes, when he was a little unwilling to raise his head again, he found that the weird scene had disappeared.

Lei Jinyan fell to the ground, panting continuously with his head bowed, as if his whole body had been drained of energy, he had no strength at all.

And not far from where Lei Jinyan was staying, Chen Yizheng was tremblingly grabbing Tong Sheng, his face was much better than Lei Jinyan.

"Tong, Tong Shao, ghost, ghost—" Chen Yi's voice changed a little when he spoke.

In fact, they have been following Lei Jinyan since he came out. Naturally, they have seen everything Lei Jinyan saw, especially Su Linfan's bloody face. They also saw it clearly of.

Even if they could see it too clearly, they were also quite frightened!

Chen Yi was so frightened that his feet went limp, and he almost scratched Tong Sheng's hand.

If he hadn't firmly believed that all this was absolutely what people said at the beginning, Tong Sheng would have been frightened too. To be honest, at that moment just now, his frightened heart would have skipped several times.

But when I thought about the information I had investigated before, the fear in my heart almost disappeared.

"It's not a ghost, it's not at all, don't you know it in your heart? You have arranged all the people you arranged before!"

"Arranged, always on call."

"Let them take action. Whether it's a human or a ghost, I'll catch him. We must not let him run away. If he dares to tease us like this, we must make him look good."

"Understood." Chen Yi responded and quickly went down to order people to act.

After Chen Yi left, Tong Sheng saw that Lei Jinyan was still standing there with a dejected face, thinking that this man was usually smart all his life, but he was confused for a while, although he was so restrained and scrupled for his own reasons. , but when he thinks that he is being teased like this, he still feels a little uncomfortable. This is the man he likes, how can his IQ be so worrying.

Tong Sheng looked at him for a while, then walked towards him with strides.

"If you don't go in, what are you doing here?"

Lei Jinyan immediately raised his head when he heard the voice, and when he saw Tong Sheng, he immediately thought of the scene just now, he opened his lips a little hesitantly, "Xiao Sheng, we, we—"

"The guests are waiting impatiently, so hurry in." Even if he didn't say anything, Tong Sheng knew what he was going to say, but when he caught him, Lei Jinyan's words would be unnecessary.

Seeing that Tong Sheng was about to leave, Lei Jinyan immediately reached out and grabbed him. Taking advantage of his courage, he hurriedly said, "Xiao Sheng, today's engagement banquet may not be possible, we can't—" Lei Jinyan said At this time, he didn't dare to look up at Tong Sheng.

Guessing that he would say this earlier, Tong Sheng was not angry, but just looked back at him, and at this moment Chen Yi's phone call followed.

After the call was connected, he only said excitedly, "I got it."

"Bring people here."

After Tong Sheng finished speaking, he looked at Lei Jinyan, and Lei Jinyan obviously heard Chen Yi's voice, he was a little surprised at what Chen Yi said, before he had time to ask clearly, he heard Tong Sheng say: "You Why do you think our engagement banquet can't be done? Because of Su Linfan? Are you afraid that he will crawl out of hell to seek revenge on us?"

When Lei Jinyan heard this, his eyes widened. He obviously didn't expect that Tong Sheng would say such a thing, let alone that he knew about Su Linfan.

"Why did you say that suddenly, what do you know?"

"I don't know anything, why don't we let Su Linfan, who crawled out of hell, talk for himself."

As soon as Tong Sheng finished speaking, Chen Yi brought people over from not far away.

Lei Jinyan's originally puzzled eyes were completely dumbfounded when he saw Su Linfan who was behind Chen Yi, "Su Linfan—" he exclaimed a little out of composure.

"I said, you really believe that the dead can climb out of hell to seek revenge on you. Please show me clearly, is that person really Su Linfan?"

This time, Lei Jinyan really looked directly at the so-called Su Linfan who had already walked in. When he saw it clearly again at a close distance, he was surprised to find that the Su Linfan he had always thought of was not the real Su Linfan, at least that picture The faces are just similar.

"Am I being cheated?" Lei Jinyan finally came to such a conclusion after a long time.
