A few days later, in the Miao Family's mansion on the outskirts of the capital …
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying's engagement ceremony was held as scheduled. The venue was full of guests, and it was a lively scene.
However, an engagement ceremony was different from a wedding. Although the venue was luxurious and grand, and the guests were all rich and powerful, the engagement ceremony itself was not complicated.
The emcee followed the usual procedures and quickly completed all the procedures. Both parties introduced their parents, presented the betrothal gifts, and exchanged engagement rings.
All that was left was a grand banquet!
This time, apart from feeling a little like the host, Zhao Yu felt that there was not much difference from the last time he attended the Miao Family's banquet.
At first, Zhao Yu was a little confused. Miao Kun had originally booked the famous Wanguo Hotel, but in the end, he did not choose that place!
At first, because the hotel was full of reservations, Miao Kun was so angry that he bought the Wanguo Hotel and forcibly changed the reservation.
But … He had spent so much effort, but in the end, he still arranged for the engagement ceremony to be held in his own mansion. This seemed a little unreasonable.
However, Zhao Yu was a detective. It didn't take long for him to understand Miao Kun's intentions.
It turned out that the reason why he and Miao Ying's engagement ceremony was so grand, in addition to the fact that Miao Kun was really happy for them, there was also a certain political factor.
In a way, Miao Kun deliberately did it for outsiders to see! In addition to his family and friends, these people also included potential enemies!
Therefore, since the day of the engagement ceremony, the Secret Service had sent a large number of professional agents to the Miao Family's mansion from the inside out. It was really impregnable and foolproof.
Even so, the gowns that Zhao Yu and Miao Ying wore at the engagement ceremony were all made of the latest bulletproof material, in case of accidents.
High-tech facial recognition systems were also installed in the stairways and entrances of the house to prevent lawbreakers from taking advantage of the situation.
In addition, the waiters, cleaners, and even some of the guests at the banquet were all disguised by experienced agents to ensure the absolute safety of the banquet.
Oh …
Only then did Zhao Yu understand that if the engagement ceremony was held at the Wanguo Hotel, it would obviously not be as safe as here.
Moreover, if it wasn't for the treasure incident, perhaps the security level would be better. However, this was a sensitive period. For safety reasons, Miao Kun decided to hold the engagement ceremony at his own home.
This time, Zhao Yu was smart. He had learned from his past experience, so he didn't open any hexagram a few days before the engagement ceremony!
What a joke!
This was his engagement ceremony. If he got a Kun Qian hexagram or a Qian Kun hexagram, would he still be alive?
He would rather the banquet go smoothly than have an unimaginable adventure!
But then again, although Zhao Yu had not opened a hexagram, there was still something that he was worried about, and that was his family!
After all, the engagement ceremony wasn't Zhao Yu's personal affair. As a parent, he had to be there no matter what. Besides Zhao Yu's parents, his brother's family was also indispensable.
Zhao Yu was worried that his family, who had never seen such a big scene before, would not be able to adapt to it.
Fortunately, after the engagement ceremony was over, Zhao Yu's worries didn't come true.
At first, his family was a little confused. They knew that Miao Ying's family was rich, but it was still far beyond their imagination.
This was especially so for Zhao Yu's mother, who was known to be stingy. Ever since she entered the house, she had not closed her mouth. When the in-laws came over to toast, the old lady, who never drank, was so happy that she drank three glasses in a row.
Miao Ying's mother was very considerate. She gave up on other social engagements and chatted with the in-laws. Not only did she show them around the mansion, but she also gave them valuable gifts.
Seeing that both parties were getting along well with each other, Zhao Yu was relieved.
Of course, Miao Kun couldn't just entertain the in-laws like Miao Ying's mother did. He had multiple purposes for holding his daughter's engagement ceremony.
After Zhao Yu and Miao Ying finished toasting, he immediately pulled Zhao Yu aside and led him to the study, where he introduced Zhao Yu to some big shots.
Zhao Yu had met some of these people before, but they were all well-mannered and had extraordinary temperaments. They were either business elites or very high-ranking leaders.
Miao Kun was a model father-in-law. Not only did he introduce these big shots to Zhao Yu, but he also told Zhao Yu about their backgrounds, so that Zhao Yu would have more choices in the future.
Ever since he became a detective, Zhao Yu's memory had been very good. He immediately memorized the information and appearances of these people.
At this moment, everyone was drinking in the study. Miao Kun was talking and laughing as usual, which made everyone laugh.
After he finished talking, the housekeeper suddenly appeared and said to the crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, the competition is about to begin. You can go to the observation deck and enjoy the competition!"
"Huh?" Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows and muttered in a low voice, "What competition? Could it be … "
"Ha ha ha …" Miao Kun raised his hand and gestured to the crowd. "Everyone, this time the bets have doubled, and there are many new tricks. Anyone who wants to play something exciting can have a good time! Ha ha … "
As soon as Miao Ying said this, everyone's interest was piqued.
"Awesome! Old Miao knows how to play … "A man smoking a cigar laughed." I like new tricks … "
A spirited old man with white hair said, "Why are we going to the observation deck? Let's go down and watch! I like the sound of fists hitting flesh! Let's go. Who's coming with me? "
Unexpectedly, with the old man taking the lead, everyone walked out of the study and went down the elevator to the back hall.
"Wow …"
As soon as he saw the familiar octagonal iron cage ring in the hall, Zhao Yu suddenly sighed and thought to himself, "My father-in-law is really addicted to this! Even for his daughter's engagement ceremony, he didn't forget to organize a fighting competition. There's really no one else like him … "
At this time, looking at the contestants who were warming up in the ring, Zhao Yu was secretly glad that he hadn't gotten a hexagram today. This time, he could finally watch the competition calmly and not have to go up and be stimulated. Ha ha …
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are so lucky to be here today!" The host held the microphone and said, "The first match is the much-anticipated world boxing champion, Sangrove! Wow! Is there anyone cheering? "
As soon as they heard Sangrove's name, the atmosphere at the scene instantly exploded, and everyone raised their arms and cheered.
The host then said, "His opponent is … The new king of boxing, also known as the Beast, Ai Xin!!! Whoa, roar, scream crazily! This match is definitely the UFC's Battle of the Heavenly King. Tonight is the final showdown … "
"Wow …"
The audience at the scene, as well as Miao Kun's VIPs, were even more excited. No one had expected that a super heavyweight fight would be arranged today!
Logically speaking, they should have started with a few unimportant matches to warm up …
"This …"
Someone wanted to ask Miao Kun, but before he could open his mouth, the scene suddenly changed.
Squeak … Squeak …
Just as the atmosphere was at its peak, a shrill squeak suddenly came from the speakers!
People quickly looked up and saw a contestant in red shorts suddenly grab the host's microphone.
"Ah? Isn't this … "
Zhao Yu recognized him at a glance. Isn't this the world boxing champion, Sangrove?
As soon as they saw Sangrove appear, the audience cheered again.
However, Sangrove had no intention of catering to the audience. Instead, he pointed to somewhere in the audience and shouted with bloodshot eyes, "¥# #% ¥¥¥…"
He shouted a lot in Russian, but of course, no one present could understand him.
Although they could not understand what he was saying, when they looked in the direction of Thorngrove's finger, their eyes suddenly stopped on Zhao Yu!
Holy sh * t!
No way!
Zhao Yu then realized that something was wrong. He thought to himself, Is this bastard trying to take revenge on me?
