I became beautiful by eating melons - Chapter 761 Bracelet

But the appearance of Ji Chunming directly brought him back to his original form.

His endurance skills were not well-trained, and he stared at Ji Chunming with bloodshot eyes, as if he was going to pounce on him and bite him in the next second.

Zhao Ziru noticed that the atmosphere here was not right, and hurriedly pulled Zhao Kai to her side: "Master Ji, please come in."

Ji Chunming snorted coldly, bumped Zhao Kai's shoulder hard, and protected Ye Rou into the banquet hall.

"That's enough." Zhao Ziru didn't know why her heart was beating so fast. She was very upset, but Zhao Kai kept making things worse. His tone became more and more impatient: "Put away your bad temper and don't miss today's important event!"

Zhao Kai nodded reluctantly, turned around and took his people to collect the items.

Those who attended the banquet also brought some of their own personal collections. The more exquisite ones were packed in boxes, while the more casual ones were wrapped in a piece of cloth.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Kai and his men took it away, saying that it would be displayed at the banquet.

Knowing that he would not covet these collections, he handed the things in his hand to the servants of the Tang family with confidence.

Soon, the boxes and cloth bags filled up half of the small warehouse.

Zhao Kai looked at this with a smile on his face, and his anger caused by Ji Chunming was mostly gone.

Suddenly, a man with shifty eyes came in through the small door, trotted over to Zhao Kai, and whispered, "We've caught him."

"Yes!" the man agreed, but was stopped by Zhao Kai just as he was about to leave.

When Zhao Kai thought of Ji Chunming's appearance just now, he felt so angry that he called someone over and whispered a few instructions.

After listening to this, the man nodded and returned to the inner courtyard along the same route.

-

The room where firewood and coal were piled was filled with dust and there was a tattered wooden bed in it. Tang Panxia was sitting on this bed.

She ignored her aching neck and tried to escape, but the windows were nailed shut from the outside and she couldn't push them open no matter how hard she tried.

I caught a glimpse of a stool in the corner of my eye and was about to smash the window when I heard voices suddenly coming from outside, getting closer and closer.

He quickly put down the stool, lay back on the bed, closed his eyes tightly and pretended to be still asleep.

There was a muffled response from the person next to him, followed by the jingling sound of keys.

A sharp voice urged, "Hurry up."

After a while, there was a creaky sound and the door was pushed open.

Tang Panxia closed her eyes tightly, only to hear two footsteps, one light and one heavy, slowly approaching her.

Finally, the footsteps stopped beside the bed. Even with her eyes closed, Tang Panxia could still feel a pair of eyes searching her.

The sharp voice muttered, "This woman isn't wearing any jewelry."

A dull voice sounded, reminding him: "Bracelet."

The sharp voice said with satisfaction: "The bracelet is OK."

This bracelet was a gift Xiaorou brought back for her when she went shopping. She said it would be very valuable in the future and asked her to wear it well.

Tang Panxia always wore it very carefully, for fear of breaking it.

But now the situation is beyond our control, the sharp voice confidently ordered: "Take it off for me."

Tang Panxia's breathing quickened.

A damp and smelly hand suddenly touched her, the palm wet with sweat. Tang Panxia's breathing became disordered for a moment, and she used all her strength not to shake off the hand in disgust.

A rough big hand grabbed her hand, and as if shocked by the touch of delicate skin, he hooked Tang Panxia's wrist and touched it a few times like a hooligan.

Tang Panxia felt a chill of disgust.

The bracelet was roughly taken off, and a sharp voice took it: "Okay, I'll give it to the young master, you stay here and keep an eye on her."

The two men retreated one after the other.

Tang Panxia breathed a sigh of relief, but still didn't dare to move, for fear that the two men would make a surprise attack.

She didn't sit up until the door was locked again. She wiped her hands that had been touched and began to think about how to escape.

Just then, the locked door rang again.

The door creaked and heavy footsteps were heard.

Tang Panxia had a bad feeling and her nails dug into the flesh, like a frozen fish dead on a chopping board.

The footsteps became louder and louder, getting closer and closer, until they stopped beside the bed, and the rough hands almost couldn't wait to touch her again.

It feels like coarse sandpaper rubbing against your skin. After the stinging pain, you'll feel nauseous from the bottom of your heart.

Fear had a tight grip on Tang Panxia. She felt like she was frozen. Her hands and feet were out of control. She lay stiffly, wanting to move but unable to.

She turned back into Zheng Xiu, who was scared of being beaten by men.

Tang Panxia silently called for help in her heart.

Save me, someone save me!

Ji Chunming's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but he didn't know where the cause came from.

Seeing his face suddenly darken, Ye Rou asked, "Uncle Ji, what's wrong with you?"

Ji Chunming thought about Tang Panxia who should be waiting at home, and shook his head: "Nothing."

Seeing that he said it was okay, Ye Rou did not ask any more questions. She looked towards the banquet hall and was stunned.

The Tang family’s ancestors were all officials, and the family had a scholarly tradition. The family had a rich literary heritage, and the ancestral home was also decorated in an antique style.

Ji Chunming often came to the Tang family to play when he was a child, and he was more familiar with the layout of the Tang family than his own home.

All the furniture in my memory is gone, replaced by Western-style furniture, placed in a mess. It has neither the charm of Chinese furniture nor the elegance of Western style. It looks weird and messy, which makes people frown.

But that was not all. As if to shock the people attending the banquet, they also invited a Western band.

What's even worse is that at the banquet, the servants were running around in a disorderly manner, and those serving drinks and those serving desserts bumped into each other, making the whole party a mess.

Everyone who came to the banquet frowned, but the magical thing was that no one complained. They slowly moved closer to Ji Chunming and formed a circle with Ji Chunming and Ye Rou as the center.

Almost all the guests had arrived, and Zhao Kai went to pick up his father.

Ye Rou leaned over to look.

It's like a person who is tense all over but is trying to pretend to be calm, which is inappropriate and makes others feel uncomfortable.

He spoke in a hoarse voice, like the hissing of a snake.

The unified explanation given to the public was that their throats were damaged by the smoke at the fire.

Ye Rou asked Ji Chunming in a low voice: "Does he look a lot like my aunt's father?"

Ye Rou sighed: "Another story of a farmer and a snake."

Ji Chunming was puzzled: "Again?"

He didn't know about the feud between Ye Rou's family and the Li family. Under the current circumstances, Ye Rou couldn't elaborate and reminded him, "You're off topic."

Ji Chunming came back to his senses: "Yes, we need to deal with this family first."

Zhao Quan frowned slightly, waved his hand and called Zhao Kai over: "Did Ji Chunming know something?"

Zhao Kai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I have a way to make him shut up."

Zhao Quan nodded and warned: "Don't let anything unexpected happen, understand?"

Zhao Kai nodded.

"Wu San, come here!"

Just as he finished speaking, a man with a pointed chin and monkey face came over carrying a wooden box.

Hearing this name, Ye Rou raised her eyebrows slightly.

Could Wu San and Wu Si, whom they captured a few days ago, be brothers?

Zhao Kai stared at Ji Chunming closely, and frowned when he saw that there was nothing unusual about him.

Doesn’t Ji Chunming know that Tang Panxia has returned?

Otherwise, how could he not recognize her bracelet?

Ji Chunming didn't recognize him, but Ye Rou did.

Neither of them noticed her.

After trying to find no results, Zhao Kai felt bored and casually handed the wooden box containing the bracelet to Ji Chunming, smiling maliciously: "Take it, it's a souvenir after all."

Ji Chunming was confused by these words.

Ye Rou understood and looked at Zhao Kai's back with a very cold look.

The banquet continued. Ji Chunming checked the bracelet again and again, and then opened the wooden box. He did not find any problems. He looked confused and asked Ye Rou, "Why is this guy keeping it a secret?"

Ye Rou looked at him deeply, without any explanation, she just stood up and said, "Uncle Ji, I'm going to the bathroom."

Ji Chunming also stood up: "I'll go with you."

Ye Rou pushed him down and said calmly, "No need, I can do it alone."

Ye Rou nodded, picked up her pearl bag, and walked straight to the door of the banquet hall.

Just as he was about to go out, two people blocked his way.

"During the banquet, you are not allowed to enter or leave at will."

Ye Rou pretended to be domineering and said unhappily: "Why?"

Ye Rou tightened her grip on the pearl bag.

Thinking of her aunt whose life or death was uncertain, Ye Rou did not retreat. She glanced at the two of them with her slightly raised fox eyes, reached into the pearl bag, and was about to take action.

The strange woman's arrogant voice suddenly exploded:

"Tang Sheng, you bastard!"
