Bai Wanxi had been very nervous the whole time. When she heard that She Qi had already left, she finally heaved a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death. I was worried that I would be exposed!"
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. I reckon She Qi didn't expect things to develop like this. However, he's not a fool. He'll be back soon. We have to investigate as soon as possible and confirm his true motive for holding the banquet tonight. "After saying that, Quan Jue looked around.
At this moment, almost all the guests had arrived, but the scene still looked harmonious. There didn't seem to be anything wrong.
However, She Qi had prepared such a grand banquet with great fanfare. His goal was definitely not as simple as dealing with Bai Wanxi.
Furthermore, ever since Quan Jue arrived at the venue, he had always felt that there was something wrong with the magnetic field here. As time passed, this feeling grew stronger and stronger, making it impossible for Quan Jue to ignore it.
"Let's split up and investigate. Sister Wanxi, follow me. Don't worry, our people have already sneaked into the Sheng family and are also investigating. We only need to confirm the situation in the venue. There's no need to run around, "Chi Jiao looked at Bai Wanxi and comforted her.
Bai Wanxi was indeed a little nervous at first, but when she looked at Chi Jiao, the uneasiness in her heart quickly dissipated.
Bai Wanxi held Chi Jiao's hand intimately and started walking around the venue with her.
Quan Jue and Beitang Lie also split up and investigated separately.
Chi Jiao and Bai Wanxi approached the ladies and quickly sensed that something was amiss.
Today was a banquet held by the Sheng family, so they were naturally the focus of the entire venue. Among them, Sheng Qian's aunt, Sheng Ping, was the strongest woman in the Sheng family. She had always been in the limelight at banquets. But today, Sheng Ping didn't seem to be in a good state. She looked uneasy as she stood in the middle of the crowd. She didn't look as graceful as she usually did.
The restrained Sheng Ping quickly attracted Chi Jiao's attention.
The women around her also felt that she looked a little strange today.
Among them, Mrs. Gao from the Gao family hugged Sheng Ping's arm. "Xiao Ping, I know you're worried about handing the Sheng family to Sheng Qian, but Old Master said so before he died. You can't not listen."
"Ah? Oh … Yes, Grandpa Sheng said so. I should listen, "Sheng Ping said anxiously.
Sheng Ping's words confused Mrs. Gao. "Little Ping, are you okay? You called the old man grandpa? That's your brother. "
"Ah … I, I accidentally forgot," Sheng Ping stammered and said nervously.
"You can forget about this?" Among the beautiful women, a young woman looked at Sheng Ping suspiciously. "Aunt Sheng Ping, you look really strange today."
"I, I'm fine! I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable … "Sheng Ping's face turned red as she stammered.
Mrs. Gao pulled her companion aside and said in a low voice, "You said you're fine, but you said you're not feeling well. Are you fine or not feeling well?"
Mrs. Gao's companion also lowered his voice and said, "I think it's because the old man didn't pass on the position of the head of the household to her before he died. She was too shocked and went crazy?"
"I don't think so?" Mrs. Gao glanced at Sheng Ping as she spoke.
And it was this glance that made Sheng Ping feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
Oh no, oh no, she was exposed!
