"Getting married?" Xiaochi asked in surprise, "Shouldn't the preparations for a wedding be made early? How come there was no movement a few days ago, but they suddenly got married today? By the way, who is the bride? Have we met her on the island?"
Chen Dong's eyes sparkled, and he was about to answer, but he saw Xiao Chi waving her hands and said excitedly: "Hey, never mind the bride, I love attending banquets the most. Sister, Xiao Hei, let's go sit over there, I see a lot of delicious food!"
Several people quickly sat down at a round table in a corner.
Chen Dong breathed a sigh of relief, and a sarcastic smile flashed in his eyes again, but the smile was only fleeting, and he soon returned to his honest and simple appearance and went to entertain the guests.
Not long after they sat down, more and more people came to the wedding in the lobby of the inn, and the atmosphere became more and more noisy.
At this moment, Xi Yue saw Old Chen's wife passing by and walking towards the backyard. She and Ling Yu looked at each other and slowly followed her.
Ji Mingyu just glanced at Xi Yue and didn't follow, but tightened an invisible rope on his hand.
This is the soul-locking chain, the same chain that Ji Mingyu used when he imprisoned Xi Yue.
The soul-locking chain can lock up a person's soul, cultivation, and spiritual power, but it can also ensure that the locked person is within the range of one's sight and will never be in danger.
Now one end of the soul-locking chain is in Ji Mingyu's hand, and the other end is still tied to Xi Yue's ankle.
But unless one has a cultivation level close to Ji Mingyu's, one would not be able to discover the existence of the Soul-Locking Chain at all.
Xiyue and Lingyu quickly caught up with Mrs. Chen.
The lobby was bustling with people, but there were few people in the backyard, so it was extremely quiet.
So when Mrs. Chen heard Xiyue and Lingyu calling out, she was very surprised.
Lingyu's appearance now is of course different from the first time she landed on the island. Xiyue disguised her, and now both of them look like inconspicuous and pretty girls, without any threat.
As expected, Mrs. Chen immediately relaxed her guard when she saw the two girls and smiled gently, "What do you want?"
Ling Yu smiled and said, "Looking at Madam Chen's appearance, she shouldn't be a native of the island, right?"
Mrs. Chen nodded and said, "Of course."
"I don't know where Mrs. Chen's hometown is. Why did she come to Wenqing Island and marry Uncle Chen?"
Ling Yu's words made Mrs. Chen stunned for a moment, and then a shy smile appeared on her face. "My hometown is in a very remote place, and I'm afraid you two girls don't know it. When I was young, I was traveling in Wuji Sea and encountered difficulties. I was saved by my husband. This Wenqing Island is like a paradise on earth. I like it very much, so I stayed here."
Ling Yu raised her eyebrows and said, "Just because Wenqing Island is beautiful and Uncle Chen saved you, you promised yourself to him?"
Mrs. Chen nodded, "Is there anything wrong?"
"There's nothing wrong." Ling Yu smiled slightly, and said in a puzzled and amazed manner, "I'm just curious. I heard that the proprietress of the Wanfu Inn on the street was also in trouble, and was saved by her current husband, and finally promised to marry him."
Madam Chen raised her eyebrows, her expression remained calm, but her eyes were a little evasive, "It's just a coincidence."
"Yes, it's such a coincidence! And there are more coincidences than that!" Ling Yu said with a smile, "Mrs. Wang from the West Street Teahouse, Mrs. Zhou from the East Gate Clinic, and the wife of Brother Wang at the village head... We asked around and found out that they were all rescued by the male owner of the family. How coincidental do you think this is?" (To be continued)
