Chapter 116: The Wedding Banquet Ends
Mao Bijie and Cousin Rongrong didn't stay too long at this tabletop of Chen Yanlu and me. Then they went to toast elsewhere.
Chen Yanlu asked me in a small voice, "Are you worried about your cousin and Mao Biqiu ……"
I interrupted Chen Yanlu's words, shrugged my shoulders and said, "I'm not a cousin, and Mao Biqiu seems to be quite capable ……"
The wedding banquet ended.
Mao Biqiu was so drunk that he couldn't even walk steadily.
Pulling Cousin Rong Rong to our table, he insisted on having another drink with Chen Yanlu. Before a glass of wine was finished, he collapsed directly on top of his seat.
What happened after that was obvious, under the embarrassed gaze of Cousin Rong Rong, a few of us started to help Mao Bikou to their new room.
During this process, I was a little sick from the smell of alcohol, but I couldn't leave Chen Ronglu alone to send Mao Biqiu off.
After arriving at cousin and his room, put Mao Bijiu down, I ran out of the room, rushed into the restroom and vomited furiously.
The sound of intermittent footsteps suddenly came from behind me. I coughed a bit, and asked Chen Yanlu to come over later, I rinse the vomit.
The sound of footsteps behind me really stopped, I washed my face and rinsed off the filth inside the sink, and twisted my head.
Only to find that there was no one behind me.
I called out to Morning Research Dew twice. Then I walked out only to see Chen Yanlu standing outside.
When he saw me come out, he smiled gently and then pulled me towards the outside.
But I always feel that Chen Yanlu seems to be a little bit wrong.
Outside the wedding site was a mess, with wine glasses and drunken people everywhere.
I saw my drunken dad inside the crowd, where my mom was pulling him away.
I was just about to go forward and turn my head to call Chen Yanlu when I saw a scene that shocked my heart.
Chen Yanlu was standing behind me, but I saw that next to his shoulder, there was a little old man lying on his back.
With a wrinkled face and wide eyes, he was drooling harangues on Chen Yanyelu's shoulder, smiling wryly at Chen Yanyelu.
But surprisingly, Morning Glory didn't seem to have any reaction.
My eyelids fluttered wildly as I tried to prompt Chen Yanlu, but that little old man looked up at me weirdly.
I winced, and he slid under Chen Yanlu's shoulder in a flash.
Chen Yanlu walked to my side and asked me strangely what was wrong.
I shook my head unnaturally, not telling Chen Yanlu what had just happened.
I pushed Chen Yanlu towards my father's side and turned my head to look behind him, but I didn't see anything anymore.
That little old man, his face was all creases and some fuzz.
That's what newborn babies look like.
Walking over to Dad, I realized that he was still gripping his wine glass with a death grip and pouring wine into his mouth. Mom was beside him, trying to persuade him, but to no avail.
He suddenly raised his head, looked at Chen Yanlu and suddenly let out a loud cry, then fainted.
I jerked my head up to look at Chen Yanlu, Chen Yanlu looked at me blankly, her mouth wide open not knowing what to say.
Mom hadn't paid much attention just now, so she didn't see the abnormality, but just called out to us. Help carry dad home.
On the way home is the morning research dew back dad, but my heart has been drumming.
Today Rong Rong sister married, the object is Mao Xiaofang's disciple Mao Biquan.
Chen Ranlu shoulder inexplicably out of a strange baby, Dad just fainted, most likely to see Chen Ranlu body has something.
What exactly did Dad see? The baby?
Called a car, a few people squeezed up, the car inside all the smell of alcohol.
I subconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror.
A pair of tiny eyes suddenly appeared in my eyes.
I looked at those eyes dead on, and froze without looking back.
Chen Yanlu was still patting my father's back, then said to my mom while saying, "Just go back right away and get uncle some antidote sugar water to drink."
My mom was nodding her head as well, but still complained, "You don't know how to drink less when you're old."
Mom and Chen Yanlu were still talking, and the driver was also driving without any variance.
I just looked at those eyes inside the rearview mirror when the driver suddenly slammed on the brakes.
I was violently brought forward by inertia, my eyes were confused, and when I came back to my senses, those eyes disappeared.
But look out the window, it turned out to be home.
Helping dad into the house, mom let me and morning research Lu also early to rest.
Lying on the bed in the room, Chen Yanlu quietly did not say anything.
I leaned against Chen Yanlu's side, but I couldn't fall asleep.
That baby really isn't a simple character, and he's stalking Chen Yanlu.
But Chen Yanlu and mom can not see the baby, dad unconscious moment seems to see it.
In a daze, I still fell into a deep sleep.
After returning to normal, I could never control my sleepiness.
But after this feeling came, how could I not resist it.
A slippery cold sensation suddenly came to my face.
Jerking my eyes open.
Water clattered and slid down my fingertips. I froze as I looked at myself washing my face in front of the mirror.
Rubbing my brow, how had I appeared in the restroom?
Taking a glance at the surroundings, my eyelids fluttered twice.
This restroom was the restroom of the hotel just now.
Drying the water stains on my face, I walked somewhat uneasily to the restroom door.
Just now, I was clearly sleeping, how did I suddenly arrive here.
The moment I stepped out of the restroom door, Chen Yanlu walked over.
I stared blankly at Chen Yanlu, and didn't see the baby on Chen Yanlu's shoulder that I had imagined.
Chen Yanlu took my hand and said, "Let's go, the people outside have almost dispersed, why don't we give a word to aunt and uncle, let's go back too?"
I froze and followed Chen Yanlu's hand outside.
Soon came to the hall.
The banquet was in chaos, all the wine glasses were overturned and the drunken crowd.
I saw my dad, who was hobbling and pulling at my mom, still holding a wine glass and pouring wine into his mouth.
My mom suddenly looked up and greeted me, asking me to come over and help.
I was bewildered, the morning research dew around me fell half a step.
A dream? I had a dream while I was washing my face? Mom was still calling me, and I rubbed my brow. Turning my head, I went to call for Morning Research Dew.
Instead, I saw a dark shadow flashing past Chen Yen-Lu's shoulder.
Chen Yanlu didn't realize it, but came over to take my hand before I could speak. Then she walked towards my mom's side.
I was like a dumbfounded person, following behind Chen Yanlu.
That black shadow just now, even though it was fast enough, I still saw it in that instant.
It was that baby that looked like an old man. It slipped off of Chen Yanlu's shoulders.
Chen Yanlu went over to hold up Dad. Dad looked at Chen Yanlu with a drunken breath and suddenly laughed out loud.
Saying, "Come on, two more cups!"
Chen Yanlu looked at me with a bitter smile, then patted my dad's back and said, "Go, I've arranged a place, let's not get drunk!"
Dad really smiled and coiled up Chen Ranlu's shoulders, and Chen Ranlu brother and brother to go out.
Chen Ranlu quietly made an OK gesture to me, and then walked to the front with my dad.
My mom and I walked behind, and my mom sighed and said, "Your dad always drinks so much, how can his body handle it."
I nodded absentmindedly and said, "Just persuade him more." Mom sighed and stopped talking.
I was still in a bit of a trance, but finally accepted that the scene that had just happened once was actually a dream.
I daydreamed while washing my face, although it was really unbelievable to say the least.
The dark shadows above Morning Research Dew's shoulders might have been a hallucination because I was too mentally stressed out.
Under the cool moonlight, the shadows of the few of us were stretched out.
Chen Yanlu and my dad kept on talking. My mom and I stopped a cab and the four of us got in.
Inside the wine-smelling car, the master said with a smile, "How many of you just attended the wedding?"
My mom responded in a conciliatory manner. If you go out for a ride when you're in a bad mood, the taxi driver will chat you up about a lot of wonderful things.
Dad's loud voice soon came from inside the car. He actually chatted with the cabbie.
Me, Chen Yanlu, mom. The three people looked at each other and could only laugh bitterly.
When I arrived home, I washed up and went to bed.
I had already forgotten about the dream just now, Chen Yanlu pinched my nose and said, "Homi, have you thought about when we'll get married?"
"Huh?" I looked at Chen Yanlu in surprise, he raised an eyebrow and said, "Did you forget what your father-in-law said just now?"
I hummed and said, "Tell me more, I don't want to get married yet."
Chen Yanlu hung his head and lowered his head, I patted his shoulder comfortingly, but then, I realized something that gave me chills.
Above Chen Yanlu's shoulder, there was a faint greenish-colored palm print.
The palm print wasn't large, like the size of a baby's open palm. Chen Yanlu fell into a deep sleep.
I looked at the ceiling with a pale face, just now was a dream, but now this palm print.
The black shadow I saw on Chen Yanlu's shoulder wasn't an illusion anymore.
Sure enough there is a ghost!
Not daring to sleep for the rest of the night, I steeled myself. Chen Yanlu's even breathing made me sleepy.
Just at this time there was a knock at the door.
My heart jumped wildly, knocking on the door in the middle of the night, my mom's dad's friends never made a habit of coming over in the middle of the night. The sound of knocking was unmistakable.
But after two or three minutes, I still didn't hear the door open.
My mom is a light sleeper, and the knocking was so loud, didn't she hear it?
I carefully removed the covers, got out of bed and prepared to open the door to see who was outside, but I was afraid, so I shook Chen Yanlu's shoulders.
Chen Yanlu opened her eyes in a daze and said, "What …… is wrong?"
I made a silent gesture and said, "Someone is knocking on the door outside, accompany me to open the door."
Chen Yanlu pinched my nose and closed her eyes again, then muttered, "Homi stop it at night, I'm so sleepy, I'll sleep for a while."
I looked at Chen Yanlu's closed eyes with a pale face, but the sound of that knocking on the door in my ears didn't half diminish. On the contrary, it became clearer.
But what Chen Yanlu said just now was clearly saying that he didn't hear the knocking sound at all.
Just at this time, there was a slight creak, but I tensed up.
It was the sound of the door opening outside. Our house is an old-fashioned building, when the door is closed and opened at night several floors can hear the sound.
Just now the door opened, who went to open the door?
I was still puzzled. Suddenly came a terrified scream.
I violently lifted the quilt, this voice is so familiar, is not exactly my dad's it!
I stumbled out of the bedroom, but found that the light of the hallway is on, mom and dad's bedroom light is also open.
I saw my mom running out of the house in a panic.
Looking at me with a pale face, she said, "Did you hear your dad's voice?"
I had no time to respond to my mom's words, but rushed straight downstairs to the front door of the location.
But saw the dark doorway wide open, my dad stood straight up in the door position.
Pale face iron blue incomparable, eyes wide, as if to see what incredible things in general.
Mom let out a cry, and then all of a sudden fainted.
I assisted my mom while walking towards my dad's side.
Behind the footsteps also sounded, turned around to see the morning research Lu wearing pajamas footsteps hurriedly ran over. When he saw my dad's appearance, his mouth opened wide in shock.
The two of us put mom on top of the couch, but during this process, my dad didn't even move a bit.
He stood there frozen like a dead man.
His face was blue, without a trace of human color.
My heart's uneasiness has been amplified to the extreme, Chen Ranlu grabbed my shoulders to let me not move.
But he slowly approached my father, and then carefully used the fingertip in my father's nose tip position shook a little.
In my heart, I actually already had a prediction, looking at Chen Yanlu's slightly pale face.
The whole person could not help but tremble.
Dad's iron face, still staring wide-eyed in our direction.
I had no time to grieve, and while dialing the 110 number, I approached Dad to try to find some clues.
But was stopped by Chen Yanlu.
Chen Yanlu pointed to the pupils of my dad's eyes and said in a somewhat low voice, "Uncle died of fright."
I finally couldn't help myself and cried in a low voice.
Just at this time mom also woke up and cried out with a wow, then lunged towards my dad's side.
I and the morning research dew dead hold down the mom. Mom cried her eyes out.
The ear-piercing sound of the police siren woke up all the surrounding residents, and also drove away the last trace of night color.
Dad's body was collected, I wiped my tears, a slightly fat police officer came to me.
This police officer is called Song Song, he measured me and the morning research dew a glance, eyes finally rested on the crying mom.
After some simple communication, I took my tearful mom, along with Chen Yanlu, followed the police called Song Song into the police car.
Dad is dead, and still be scared to death, he must and the night of the knock on the door of the sound can not be unrelated.
Inside the police station, after taking a statement, I want to go to find Mao Beiqiu.
