Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Chapter 173 Keep your distance from other men

In the banquet hall, several children were playing with the popular carrot knives.

The plastic toys are in the shape of knives, and everyone seems to be unable to let go. They are competing to see who has the bigger carrot knife and who can play with it better.

A naughty kid saw Li Qingwen, and the two looked at each other. Then the kid waved the knife in his hand, scaring Li Qingwen so much that he immediately moved away from him.

The scene was bustling with guests and crowds of people.

In order to record their daughter's engagement, the woman's side invited a professional photographer from the company to the scene to record her daughter's engagement party in a book and make a special wedding journal.

Including the bride's wedding dress and the decoration of the wedding scene, all were sponsored by the wedding company, just to be able to be featured in the magazine.

Photographers were scattered in every corner, seemingly unwilling to miss any details of the scene.

Li Qingwen's outfit was special, so the photographers asked him to take a few photos of her alone.

After it was over, a familiar figure walked towards her in the crowd: "Ms. Qingwen, I didn't expect to see you here."

Li Qingwen was also surprised: "This is an engagement party, not a financial forum. What brings you here?"

Kevin was wearing a white suit and standing tall, looking like a prince charming.

He immediately explained: "I am the cousin of the girl, so you are the boy..."

Li Qingwen nodded: "The Zhou family and the Yu family are old friends."

After hearing this, Kevin glanced around the venue, as if looking for someone he could talk to.

Li Qingwen directly pointed out: "Brother is not here today, you should just attend the engagement party with peace of mind."

Kevin didn't like being seen through so directly, and immediately said, "Who said I was looking for Mr. Zhou? I can't get to know the one who knows you."

In the noisy venue, people were drinking and chatting. Just now, Zhou Yongan stopped to greet his friends, and Li Qingwen was called to take pictures, and now he didn't know where the other person was.

Several children suddenly rushed up, waving toy knife handles in their hands, and looked like they were going to stab Li Qingwen. Li Qingwen was about to talk to Kevin and did not notice.

Then, in an instant, she was pulled forcefully by a hand.

Li Qingwen was pulled away, turned around and fell into a white embrace.

"Kill the beauty, kill the beauty..." the child murmured, and continued to stab Li Qingwen with the handle of the knife in his hand.

Although it was a toy, just looking at the shape made him feel scared. Kevin protected Li Qingwen and spun around to avoid the child: "Don't scare the beautiful sister, go play nearby."

"Destroy the beauty..." The child ignored what the adults said and continued to stab Li Qingwen with a smile on his face, thinking that the adults were playing with him.

Everyone around them looked over. Kevin reached out to stop the child and put his hand on the child's forehead: "Do you know my sister? You want to stab me? I don't have time to play with you. And this is a knife. Don't play with it. It's too scary."

The child stopped and explained: "This is a toy, not a knife. Hehehe, kill the beauty~"

The child jumped and waved at Li Qingwen as he spoke, then noticed the crowd and ran away embarrassedly.

Li Qingwen slowly calmed down and was about to remind Kevin to let go of him, when a voice shouted even faster: "How shameful!"

The old lady stood in the crowd, her eyes falling on Li Qingwen's waist, which was held by a man's hand: "Why don't you separate!"

Kevin put his hand down. He was used to being a hero saving beautiful girls and had no intention of offending anyone. But now, seeing everyone's eyes were directed towards him and Li Qingwen, he could only smile.

Li Qingwen was just a little frightened at first, but now he bumped into his grandmother and was condemned by her gaze, his face became even hotter.

Grandma had already left the crowd angrily. Li Qingwen turned around and hurriedly said "thank you" to Kevin, then chased after his grandma.

Li Qingwen kept explaining to the old lady: "Kevin just pulled me in a hurry because a kid was making trouble and stabbed me with a plastic knife."

The old lady felt extremely ashamed and didn't want to listen to her explanation at all. She walked away very quickly.

Li Qingwen followed him to the corridor outside the banquet hall, where no one was around. The old lady warned him sternly, "As long as you are still the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, you must always be polite and keep your distance from other men. Don't you understand?"

Li Qingwen clasped his hands in front of him and replied obediently, "Yes, I know."

The old lady was still furious, her eyes reflected a sharp gaze, and she continued to insult him, "If you had known, you wouldn't have let a man put his hands on your waist and acted so casually and frivolously. Look at what you're wearing, your thighs are exposed! So many eyes around you have seen it!"

Li Qingwen looked at the neat cheongsam and found that the slit was not only up to the thigh as her grandmother said.

She didn't argue anymore, just listened silently.

The old lady didn't want to see her anymore and waved her away.

After being reprimanded, Li Qingwen became depressed. Wearing the intellectual cheongsam, she no longer had the blooming temperament as before. Instead, she looked like a flower that had wilted under the scorching sun.

When Zhou Yongan appeared, Li Qingwen was about to call him when he saw him walking in one direction.

He was called away by his grandmother.

The two people didn't know what to say, and they talked for a long time.

Zhou Yongan turned around and saw Li Qingwen looking at him from a distance, then walked towards her.

"Why are you standing here? Have you eaten?" Zhou Yongan didn't mention what happened just now.

Li Qingwen followed him into the venue and asked, "Did grandma say anything to you?"

She looked like she was being scolded, so Zhou Yongan sighed and encouraged her, "Grandma is very jealous of you. She said that you look many times better in this outfit than she did in cheongsam when she was young. With your charm and curves, your yoga practice has paid off."

He didn't tell the truth, but Li Qingwen understood it.

It was still about the skirt, and she could only explain to him: "Don't listen to grandma, there was a kid trying to play a prank on me just now, Kevin really just pulled me in a hurry, and the skirt was not open to the thighs..."

Zhou Yongan paused, his eyes softened as he said, "No matter what, you are still too beautiful, and you attract all the bees and butterflies to me."

Li Qingwen patted him and still had the mind to make a joke.

Zhou Yongan brought her some food and watched her finish it. Then he took Li Qingwen's hand and said, "Come on, take me to find out which kid has such good eyesight and wants to attract my wife's attention."

Li Qingwen grabbed him and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Zhou Yongan seemed to be very relaxed. He said: "Of course I will fight back. Who allowed him to bully my wife?"

Li Qingwen didn't want to get involved: "Forget it, it's just a child, why are you fussing over it?"

Zhou Yongan's hand fell on Li Qingwen's tight waist and pulled her closer to him: "Who is not a baby?"
