Chapter 2294

At the grand ceremony, the one-eyed Chai Hu held Luo Bing’s slender neck in one hand and pressed his other hand on her back. The holy essence in his body surged, looking ready to take action at any time.

The guards of the City Lord’s Mansion looked at each other, with expressions of difficulty and resentment on their faces. Since the other party had the young lady in hand as a hostage they didn’t dare to act rashly, for fear of provoking Chai Hu and harming Luo Bing. If that were the case, they would be not far from death.

In a hurry, they all looked at Luo Jin, wanting to see how he would give instructions.

I saw Luo Jin’s eyes slightly shrink, and he gave a wink without a trace. The guards understood and quietly spread out, surrounding Chai Hu on all sides to prevent him from escaping.

And the group of guests at the table where Chai Hu and Luo Bing were originally located had long since scattered and Youdaoplaceholder0 in all directions the moment Chai Hu stood up and holding Luo Bing hostage.

Old man Luo Jin！ If you still cherish your daughter’s life, make them behave themselves！” Chai Hu’s single eye emitted a ferocious luster. While vigilant about the movements around him, he shouted coldly at Luo Jin.”

Luo Jin snorted coldly, slightly raised his hand and pressed it down, indicating that the guards should not be impatient. Then he looked at Chai Hu and said, “I seem to have seen you somewhere！”

Chai Hu sneered and taunted, “I’m just an unknown nobody. Naturally, the city lord won’t remember.

Luo Jin said, “No matter what grudges I have with you, it has nothing to do with my daughter. You let her go and I promise to talk to you properly.

Chai Hu laughed loudly and said, “Talk？ With a despicable and shameless person like you, what’s there to talk about？ Do you think I’m a three-year-old child？”

Luo Jin said, “It seems that you have had a long-standing hatred for me.” Those words of Bing’er just now were also because you coerced her, right?

Upon hearing this, the surrounding guests had a sudden realization. They thought that no wonder Luo Bing made her father unable to get off the stage in this situation. It turned out to be because she was coerced. If that was the case, then it could explain why Luo Bing was so unseemly.”

“If you say so, then so be it! Chai Hu snorted coldly and didn’t mean to defend either.

“It wasn’t him who coerced me…” Just then, Luo Bing suddenly interrupted and said, “Father. Those words were what I said myself. You let that girl go. What’s her fault？”

Upon hearing this, Luo Jin’s complexion suddenly sank.

The expressions of the surrounding guests also became wonderful. They really couldn’t understand what was going on in this situation! Luo Bing was held hostage by this one-eyed strong man and her life was in the hands of others. Why was she still speaking well for him

Luo Jin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Bing’er, don’t be afraid. Daddy will rescue you.” Then he looked at Chai Hu again and said, You are so bold as to mix into the ceremony and hold my beloved daughter hostage. What on earth do you want?

Chai Hu sneered and said, “City Lord, why bother to ask. What I came here for, others may not know, but don’t you know?

Luo Jin frowned and narrowed his eyes and said, “You set a path. If possible, why not accept? As long as my daughter can be safe. I am willing to pay any price!

He spoke righteously and solemnly, which cheered for a while from the surrounding guests and they praised him one after another.

Someone immediately said to Chai Hu, “This friend, your actions are too reckless. The City Lord has always been devoted to his people and diligent in city affairs and has an excellent reputation. Miss Luo Bing is also innocent and pure. What can’t you say okay? Why do you have to make everyone unable to step down? Listen to me, let go of Miss Luo Bing, and the City Lord will surely not make things difficult for you.

“That’s right, you let go of Miss Luo. Everything can be discussed.”

“Let people go quickly, otherwise, if the City Lord doesn’t blame you, we will make you look good！”

There was a stir all around. Some people tried to persuade him with kind words, while others spoke harshly. Chai Hu seemed to become a lot more nervous all of a sudden. The hand that was pinching Luo Bing exerted a little more force slightly, making Luo Bing have difficulty breathing and her face turn pale.

Shut up all of you! Chai Hu suddenly roared. Now that he was in a predicament and surrounded by enemies on all sides, his nerves were already tense. Hearing the shouts from all around, he became even more upset and impatient.

“Whoever dares to be wordy again, I will strangle her to death immediately. I mean what I say！” Chai Hu glared with his one-eyed and shouted angrily.

Seeing this, those guests didn’t dare to make a sound anymore and all shut up, for fear of really provoking this guy who had lost his mind and hurting Luo Bing.

Luo Jin’s expression sank and he shouted in a low voice, “Speak, what exactly do you want me to do！”

Chai Hu turned his head and glared at Luo Jin, saying, “Let go of the person beside you！”

“Who do you mean？” Luo Jin asked rhetorically.

Chai Hu shouted sharply, “If you dare to be so shameless again, I will immediately take your daughter’s life！”

Luo Jin’s face changed slightly and he said, “Is this what you are doing… trying to rob the bride？”

Chai Hu sneered and said, “She didn’t marry you voluntarily. How can there be a saying of robbing the bride？ I’m just here to save someone.”

Luo Jin said, “You didn’t ask her. How do you know she isn’t voluntary？”

Chai Hu said, “How could she be willing to marry you？ What kind of daydream are you having！”

Luo Jin smiled and said, “Do you have some misunderstandings? Although this person doesn’t know you, it seems that you and… my humble wife should be friends? You have done so much for a friend, and this admires you! Since you are a friend of my humble wife, then you are also a friend of this. Well… you can ask my humble wife yourself whether she is willing to marry this. If she says no, this will immediately let you go and will no longer force others. How about it?

When Chai Hu heard this, his face changed several times, as if he couldn’t believe his ears, and said hesitantly, “Is this true？”

Luo Jin smiled and said, “With so many guests from all directions here and under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could this I lie? After a pause, he added, “Or is it that you, friend, just came here to cause trouble and ruin this’s reputation? If so… I will definitely not let you off lightly.

Someone answered, “That’s right, we are all willing to testify for the city lord！”

“Lad, you couldn’t really just come here to cause trouble, could you？ If so, that would be too despicable.”

Chai Hu’s face was gloomy, not moved by the shouts from all directions. After pondering for a long time, he nodded and said, “Fine, I’ll believe you this time.”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the bride and said in a deep voice, “Fifth sister, you also heard what the city lord just said. Tell me, did you marry him voluntarily, or… were you threatened by him！ Don’t worry, if you were really threatened and forced by him, even if your fourth brother risks his life, he will rescue you！”

“Your good intentions are greatly appreciated by this humble one on behalf of my wife！” Luo Jin smiled slightly, looking calm.

“You shut up！” Chai Hu shouted in a low voice.

Luo Jin smiled but said nothing.

The bride who had been standing motionless beside him and didn’t say a word even when Chai Hu was causing trouble suddenly became the focus of everyone’s attention at this moment. Everyone looked at her, wanting to know what kind of answer she would give.

And under the gaze of the crowd, the bride’s delicate body trembled slightly for a while. Immediately after that, Yue’er’s voice came out from under the red hijab: “I… Youdaoplaceholder0!

“What！” Chai Hu’s body shook, and he was instantly stunned. He never expected to hear such an answer.

But that voice was indeed his fifth sister’s without a doubt, and no one was impersonating her.

For a moment, he couldn’t accept such a result.

Luo Jin looked at him and smiled, saying, “Now you should understand, right？ This humble one and my wife hit it off at first sight and fell in love at second sight. If not for this, this humble one would not have married her.”

“Brother Chai…” Luo Bing turned around at this moment, looking at Chai Hu with a blank face, a little unable to understand why things were not the same as what Chai Hu said. After all, Chai Hu told her that today’s bride was forced to marry her father, but from the bride’s mouth, she heard a completely different answer.

“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible！” Chai Hu shouted.

Luo Jin’s face sank, and he shouted sternly： “I have given you enough face. Considering that you are a friend of my wife, I don’t want to make things difficult for you. I hope you will do well for yourself！”

“That’s right, friend, don’t pester anymore, otherwise everyone’s face will look bad.”

“Exactly, you let go of Miss Luo Bing. I believe that with the city lord’s tolerance, he won’t really make things difficult for you. Let’s all sit at the same table and drink the wine of the celebration banquet. Wouldn’t it be wonderful.”

“You kid, stop it! If you want to die, I don’t mind sending you on your way!”

The surrounding guests started chattering again, and their impression of Chai Hu was extremely bad.

“This is impossible.” Chai Hu still kept muttered, “Fifth sister can’t marry you voluntarily. She must have been forced by you!” ” As he was talking, he seemed to remember something and shouted sternly: “It must be big brother and second brother, right!”

“What on earth are you talking about, kid？” The onlookers had a blank expression on their faces.

Chai Hu, however, laughs to the sky. The laughter rolled like thunder, extremely carefree, as if he had figured out something and relieved his knot. After a while, he suddenly looked at Luo Jin and gritted his teeth and said: “The old bastard is really insidious. He actually made eldest brother and second brother restrict and force Fifth Sister to marry you. If you don’t want your daughter to be splashed with blood on the spot today, then obediently listen to my order!

Luo Jin was furious and shouted in a deep voice： “How dare you break your promise？”

Chai Hu sneered： “With a despicable villain like you, what promise is there to speak of？ Today, no matter what, I will take Fifth Sister away. Whoever dares to stop me, I will make her die！” As he spoke, the strength in his hand increased a little.

Luo Bing let out a cry of surprise.

Luo Jin was shocked and quickly said: “Wait!”

“Will you release the person or not！” Chai Hu shouted sharply.

Luo Jin’s face was ashen, just like the approaching storm. The atmosphere in the entire inner hall was suddenly suppressed to the extreme. After gnashing his teeth for a while, he said： “Since you are so suspicious, then let my wife explain it to you in detail！”

As he spoke, he glanced at the bride beside him.

When Chai Hu heard this, his expression rejoiced and he shouted： “Fifth Sister, come here first.”

And the bride, after hesitating for a moment, walked step by step towards Chai Hu.

“This kid is probably going to be in trouble！” At the side wine table, Yang Kai, who had been watching coldly, suddenly muttered softly.

The people of Qianye Sect had originally been watching the good show with great excitement and joy. No matter what the reason for Chai Hu’s actions today was, and no matter what the final result was, Luo Jin’s face had already been damaged. In the future, I’m afraid that people will talk about today’s events everywhere in teahouses and taverns. People who don’t know the truth will surely think that Luo Jin has done something like bullying men and women, which will damage his majesty and image.
