Third watch

Huang Dongguo was a little depressed today.

He was 10 minutes late in the morning, and the foreman told him that the perfect attendance bonus for this month was gone, and that he would be deducted for being late.

But in his line of work, no matter how unhappy he was, he had to greet people with a smile on his face.

But today, my colleague told him that this smiley face rule is no longer working, so I need to restrain my expression today.

"Isn't there a wedding today? Shouldn't you be happy?" Huang Dongguo said while folding a napkin.

The meeting will start in the afternoon, and they must arrange all the seats in the hall now.

His colleague Xiao Li looked around mysteriously, and whispered to him: "Does today's banquet look like an ordinary wedding?"

This is true.

Huang Dongguo has been working in this hotel for two years, but for the wedding in the afternoon, the rehearsal preparations must have started in the morning, and it was very lively.

But now the hall is very deserted.

"What's going on with this wedding?" Huang Dongguo also asked in a low voice because everyone has a gossip mentality.

"I don't know. But it is said that the host's family is very rich, and it is likely to be a political marriage or something." Xiao Li loves to read novels and has always had a rich imagination: "Maybe the couple's relationship is not very good, this wedding is just a superficial effort, just for show Except for a pair of happy words, there are no colorful flower balloons."

"No way?" Huang Dongguo doesn't like to read novels, but he likes to watch TV: "If it's really a political marriage, it won't be so low-key, but it should be a big battle."

"What you said is also reasonable." Xiao Li said: "But the couple definitely has no emotional basis. I think the bride's natal family may not approve of this wedding at all."

"why?"

"Don't tell me, Xiao Xu told me. She said that the bride seemed to be living in the hotel all the time."

"Aren't you going to pick up the bride from your mother's house?"

"Who knows." Xiao Li said, "Don't tell others."

"Which floor does the bride live on?"

"Ninth floor, isn't Xiao Xu in charge of the ninth floor?" Xiao Li neatly folded another napkin flower: "You know it well... Huh."

Huang Dongguo was also taken aback for a moment, and turned his head together with Xiao Li.

A waiter was walking up the stairs with a tray.

"Was it Xiao Li just now?" Xiao Li wondered, "Why so silent."

"It seems to be Xiao Li, but the voice is a bit weird." Huang Dongguo said, "Hurry up, I have already been scolded by the foreman today..."

--------------

Wang Xiaoming walked through the corridor nonchalantly, ignoring the hotel staff who occasionally passed by him, and calmly nodded to these 'colleagues' who passed by.

He hurried to the escape elevator, and Zhong Yi was also wearing a white shirt and trousers, waiting for him in the corridor.

"Ninth floor." Wang Xiaoming said, "I wandered around for a long time, but I didn't expect to bump into two people who were gossiping about their wedding this afternoon."

Zhong Yi was a little depressed: "You are lucky."

The two of them sneaked into the hotel together to inquire about the news and prepare.Wang Xiaoming looks very harmless, the kind of good student in the class that everyone will meet, looks familiar at first glance, and fishing in troubled waters is actually easier than imagined.

They even forged the hotel's badges—thankfully this hotel's badges were as nondescript as the uniforms, using the most common templates.

But even so, Zhong Yi failed.

He was handsome and tall, and he was conspicuous even in the waiter's clothes, especially the female staff. Everyone was taken aback when they saw him, and then quickly became puzzled.

Zhong Yi, who always felt good about himself, never thought that he was so bad at being a spy, so he could only squat in the unmonitored stairwell and wait for Wang Xiaoming to wander around.

Originally, they just wanted to inquire about the details of the wedding in the afternoon, but they didn't expect Wang Xiaoming to be very lucky to hear unexpected news.

"We should have thought of it earlier." Wang Xiaoming said, "Since the wedding is held here, the bride should be nearby for convenience."

"It's much easier to handle." Zhong Yi said: "The wedding starts at three o'clock in the afternoon and ends before six o'clock. After it's over, they will probably take He Wenna back to the community and hold the real ceremony."

After Zhong Yi and Wang Xiaoming made an agreement, they went directly up the stairs to the ninth floor.

Zhong Yi asked Wang Xiaoming to carry a tray and knock on the door one by one to find He Wenna. Wang Xiaoming thought he was crazy.

"This time it's not that I'm guilty of being a thief, but that we really are." Wang Xiaoming said: "There are so many cameras in the corridor, it's not fun to be caught."

Zhong Yi didn't take it seriously: "You walk with your head down, how can the camera see clearly? We are not trying to kill people and set fires, as long as there is no major incident, basically the video tape will not be called out to watch. Do you think the hotel is really Did you hire someone to sit in front of the screen 24 hours a day and watch it?"

Wang Xiaoming was dumbfounded.

With Zhong Yi's psychological quality, he could be a fraudster.

Wang Xiaoming was cautious by nature, he was a law-abiding citizen since he was a child, Zhong Yi got impatient and decided to do it himself.

He really knocked on the door one by one, pretending that he had received a call to repair the remote control, and came back after knocking on five or six rooms.

"How is it?" Wang Xiaoming asked him quickly.

"Suppress the bold, starve the timid." Zhong Yi said flatly, "You can ask them to come up now. 904."

It turned out that He Lina and her parents had already been waiting outside the hotel. They planned to go to the venue during the wedding in the afternoon, but He Wenna lived here.

In this case, things are much easier to handle.

He Lina brought her parents in and dialed 904 directly.

"It's all right now, if you don't listen to your sister, you will always listen to your parents." Wang Xiaoming said: "As long as she runs away, the Lin family can't do anything without a bride."

"Not necessarily." Zhong Yi said.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dispute in the room.

Wang Xiaoming: "..."

"Shall we go in and have a look?" He hesitated a little.

"Wait first." Zhong Yi said.

After about half an hour, someone came out.

But only Helena.

He Lina looked devastated, and seemed to cry again.

Wang Xiaoming quickly asked her: "How is it?"

Seeing the two of them, He Lina held back her tears: "Forget it."

Wang Xiaoming: "Huh?"

He Lina wanted to force herself to be calm, but she couldn't hold back all of a sudden, and burst into tears.

Afraid that she would attract attention, Zhong Yi and Wang Xiaoming quickly dragged her into the stairwell.

"I don't care anymore!" He Lina cried and said, "They can do whatever they like, anyway, I am the one who is wrong!"

"What happened?" Wang Xiaoming asked.

He Lina was sobbing: "At first, I made an agreement with my parents. That man has a problem and I want to save my sister. I didn't expect... When I went in just now, Wen Na was surprised at first, and then asked my parents to attend the wedding in the afternoon."

"I was in a hurry. This family is uneasy and kind, why do you still want to marry? Wen Na actually said that it was me who was uneasy and kind. I was jealous that she married before me and married so well. She also said that the wedding Originally, I wanted to invite my parents to come, and after the wedding, I would take my parents to go on a honeymoon trip, so that my son-in-law can honor and enjoy the blessings in S City."

"Your parents... just believe it?" Wang Xiaoming's eyes widened.

He Lina choked with sobs: "Wenna said her husband is very rich...and said that the air tickets to pick up her parents are already bought. I didn't expect them to come here by themselves by train."

"Parents were a little confused about things, and Wenna hesitated when she said that." He Lina lowered her head a little embarrassed: "In the end, I became a bad person. I have troubled you so much, and I will still pay you." I paid, but forget about it.”

He Lina has been running around He Wenna, but in the end it turned out to be such a result, even Wang Xiaoming felt that this family was a bit weird.

"Didn't you tell your parents about the ceremony?" Zhong Yi interjected.

"Why didn't I tell you, I showed them." He Lina smiled wryly: "Wenna said that they ordered the gifts according to the customs of her hometown, and said that the customs are different in different places..."

"There is no custom of giving Mingyi to marriage." Zhong Yi said mercilessly: "He Wenna didn't just say this just now, did she?"

Helena lowered her head.

Wang Xiaoming: "?"

After a while, He Lina said in a low voice: "There are a lot of things in Wenna's room. As soon as her parents arrived, she talked to them while showing them the jewelry bought by the Lin family, and gave her the dragon and phoenix bracelet on her wrist to her mother on the spot." .”

Wang Xiaoming looked at He Lina's unwillingness to raise her head, and suddenly felt that it might not just be about a gold bracelet.

"I'm going back." He Lina said, "I'm really sorry for you. I will confirm the cost with you later..."

He Lina was probably really heartbroken, her voice was lifeless.

"You don't care?" Zhong Yi said, "The wedding will start in the afternoon."

"She can marry whomever she likes." He Lina said, "Anyway, I..."

"Lin Yu has become a ghost." Zhong Yi said abruptly, "He is your sister's groom."

He Lina raised her head, eyes full of disbelief: "What does this mean?"

"Probably because Lin Yu was unwilling to be reconciled after his death, and kept making troubles. In order to appease Lin Yu's ghost, the Lin family decided to marry him in a dark marriage." Zhong Yi said everything they found out in one breath: "So your sister is not just married. A tablet is so simple. After today's wedding, she may really face Lin Yu. "

He Lina understood the meaning of this sentence.

She trembled violently: "How is it possible..."

Although this matter is out of common sense, He Lina still thought that what the Lin family wanted to do was to ruin her sister's reputation. She was embarrassed and angry just now, thinking that if her sister wanted to marry a memorial tablet, she would marry her. She will regret it after a long time.

She didn't expect Lin Yu's accident at all.

"Even so, do you still want to forget it?" Zhong Yi asked.

He Lina's fingertips dug into her palm fiercely.

"I can't control them anymore." After a long time, she said.

"You have also seen that no matter what Lin Yu is or what the Lin family is going to do, as long as I say it, Wenna will not believe it. Now my parents are also shaken. "

"Are you sure?" Zhong Yi asked lightly.

He Lina shook her head: "Thank you."

After finishing speaking, the always pale and tired woman turned around and left. Wang Xiaoming and Zhong Yi stood there watching her walk into the elevator without looking back.

"...What should we do now?" Wang Xiaoming said, "The client has withdrawn the order."

"Nothing to do." Zhong Yi said, "We should do whatever we want."

"Then why didn't you tell He Lina just now? She must be..."

"I must think my sister is stupid." Zhong Yi said coldly.

Wang Xiaoming: "..."

"I agree with her idea." Zhong Yi leaned against the wall and looked at the corridor: "But it's her business to cancel the order."

"Even without He Wenna, Lin Yu is still a hidden danger." Zhong Yi said: "We still have to do it. He Lina's cancellation of the order now only changes one thing."

"We don't need to worry too much about He Wenna. Even her sister gave up, let alone us?" Zhong Yi had no expression on his face.

"Next, we just need to concentrate on waiting. Wait for the groom who comes to pick up the bride."
