Chapter 128 Flash Wedding
My best friend is a playboy. She loved playing around when she was young. She didn’t want to suffer the hardships of marriage, nor did she want to have children and take care of her parents-in-law. She became the envy of others.
But later, when she saw the original owner's well-behaved children, considerate husband and parents-in-law who only gave money but did nothing, she became envious again.
When everyone around her got married, had children, and lived a happy life, she began to waver again.
So, my 35-year-old best friend also wants to get married and have children. Looking back at the former bootlickers, they all have wives and children.
So, my best friend started looking for a marriage partner on dating websites.
After a month of hard work, my best friend found a perfect man who was 1.87 meters tall, had eight-pack abs, was handsome, well-educated, and seemed to have a good family background.
After the two met, they started dating, and less than two months after they started dating, the man proposed to her.
A best friend invited her female friends to get together and talked about her plan to get married. The female friends were happy for her but also worried that she was being cheated and hoped that she would thoroughly investigate the man's family before getting married.
Therefore, the original owner, who had a wider network of contacts, was entrusted with important tasks.
But the best friend let the secret slip when chatting with her boyfriend, which led to the original owner being caught, and the best friend's boyfriend broke off the engagement with her.
Not long after she regretted her marriage, the man got married again. Her best friend saw her ex-boyfriend’s wedding and the million-dollar betrothal gift on WeChat Moments and regretted her decision.
After trying to reconcile with her ex-boyfriend to no avail, she started to hold a grudge against the original owner.
If it weren't for Zhang Shan, she would have been married now, successfully married into a wealthy family, and would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, without having to struggle for a living.
So, the best friend pretended to visit the original owner and poisoned the original owner's food, and the original owner's family of four were poisoned to death.
……

"Zhang Shan, what happened? Did you die on the way? You haven't even arrived yet. We agreed that the last person to arrive will pay the bill, so we won't be polite."
Zhang Shan was still at the traffic light at this time. "I don't believe you are all here before me. There is only one more intersection left."
Why did she have to pay for the conspiracy set up by Qin Xiang?
When Zhang Shan arrived, there were only two people in the small private room. Zhang Shan: "See, I said I wouldn't be the last one to arrive."
"Ahua is just trying to scare you. Look how nervous you are."
Zhang Shan put down her bag and pulled out a stool. "No, you guys are such big eaters. You really scared me. I stepped on the accelerator to the bottom. Fortunately, I managed to catch up."
"You're so stingy. Today, Qin Xiang is treating us. Let's have a grand dinner."
Among the sisters, Qin Xiang lives the richest life. After all, she spends all the money she earns on herself. She has no pressure, wears different clothes and bags every day, and can go out traveling when she has free time. It's really great.
"Yeah, I regret getting married. Ever since I had a child, my life has revolved around the child. Not only did I lose my collagen, I also lost my name."
"Who isn't, Mommy Dudu?"
"Yes, Guoguo's mother."
"By the way, I heard that Qin Xiang is serious this time and really wants to get married." Dudu's mother, Ahua, said in a low voice.
"A prodigal who returns is worth more than gold. Maybe she has really met her true love." Zhang Shan sipped her tea.
Ah Hua: "Could it be that after being so carefree for so long, you're finally in love?"
Wanwan: "That's troublesome. Once she gets too obsessed with love, no matter what you say to her, it's useless."
Ah Hua: "But marriage is different. It's too late to regret it."
Zhang Shan: "Maybe for her, this is not a big deal at all. Let's just ignore it, or she will blame us."
The three of them had been complained about many times, and after Zhang Shan reminded them, the two of them stopped talking.
At this time, the door of the box was pushed open from outside. The person who came in was wearing a green flower halter dress and holding a bag of snacks in her hand.
"You all are here? Where's Tan Xiang? She organized the party, but no one is coming?"
This is Taozi, who has the best relationship with Tan Xiang and is Tan Xiang’s true best friend.
In her previous life, she was the one who suggested asking Zhang Shan to help investigate. When something happened, she was the first one to shirk responsibility and clear herself of all blame.
Zhang Shan: "You live next door to each other, didn't you call her when you came?"
Taozi: "She didn't tell me to call her."
As soon as Taozi arrived, the lively atmosphere in the box disappeared. Everyone lowered their heads and played with their mobile phones. Zhang Shan remotely supervised her son and daughter doing their homework.
Taozi: "Zhang Shan, aren't your two children in elementary school? Why do they still need your supervision to do their homework? They are not self-disciplined at all."
"Don't be too controlling of children nowadays, lest they develop a rebellious mentality. Look at me, Xiaoxiao and Yangyang never need me to worry about them."
Zhang Shan: "What you said is true. Maybe I was born to be a hard worker. Unlike you, you don't have to worry about your husband and children."
She didn't even know her husband was having an affair with Tan Xiang, so what did she have to worry about?
Ah Hua almost laughed out loud.
"Yes, the school you chose is good. The teachers are responsible and the children's academic performance is also outstanding."
For some reason, Taozi felt that these words were a bit harsh. Her son and daughter's grades were average, not top-notch.
Zhang Shan put down her phone, and Qin Xiang arrived. "What are you talking about?"
Ah Hua: "I'm talking about Taozi's husband being considerate and her child being well-behaved and sensible."
Qin Xiang was obviously feeling guilty. She lowered her eyes and poured herself a glass of water. "Have you ordered? What do you want to eat?"
"How can we dare to order if you don't come?" Zhang Shan handed the menu to Qin Xiang.
"Yes, hurry up, I'm starving."
Ah Hua urged.
Five people ordered six dishes and one soup. While waiting for the dishes, Qin Xiang announced her wedding news, "The wedding date has not been set yet, but you must come. My bridesmaid position is reserved for you."
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Everyone congratulated her, and it was obvious that Qin Xiang was still very happy.
An inappropriate voice said, "Getting married within three months of knowing each other? Isn't that too fast? Do you want to check your boyfriend's background first? What if he is a liar?"
When Zhang Shan saw Qin Xiang's expression, her smile disappeared and she was obviously unhappy.
But Taozi still didn't give up. "How could such a perfect man enter the market? I find it a bit strange."
Zhang Shan: "It is normal for talents to be buried. Fortunately, Tan Xiang has a keen eye and found gold in the sand."
"Yes, yes." Ah Hua also agreed. If Taozi continued talking, they would not be able to have the meal.
She's been waiting here for so long, isn't it all in vain?
"I'm doing this for your own good. Look at the news I've read recently. It's all about some beautiful young girls being tricked into marriage by blind date guys."
Worried that Qin Xiang wouldn't believe it, Taozi showed her the video, which happened to be about a man pretending to be a rich second-generation to defraud marriage. The male protagonist had a lot in common with her boyfriend.
Qin Xiang's heart was shaken a little, and then the dishes came.
Wanwan was eating while video chatting because her little son couldn't see her and was crying.
"Xie Wan, don't spoil the child too much. When can you free your hands?"
Taozi jumped out again and reached out to hang up the video.
“De-attachment is like weaning from a baby. It must be done cleanly and neatly, otherwise all the efforts will be wasted.”
Wanwan was a little anxious, so she got up and went outside to make a video call.
Ah Hua was a little unhappy. "Wanwan's little Naitang is only six months old. It's normal for her to be attached to her. Just mind your own business."
Taozi: "You are being taken for granted. I don't want to care about you guys."
Ah Hua: "I couldn't ask for more!"
Qin Xiang and Zhang Shan have gotten used to it. They quarrel whenever they meet, not because they have a good relationship, but because they look down on each other.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. This meal is not for nothing. Give me some advice. Is there anything wrong with Chen Feng? Is he hiding something from me?"
Bringing the topic back to herself, Taozi's attention also turned.
"Or, let Zhang Shan check on Chen Feng. She has many connections, so she will definitely be able to find him."
Zhang Shan shook her head repeatedly, "Don't flatter me. Chen Feng is not from City A. I can't find out if he is outside City A."
"I thought you were omnipotent, but I didn't expect there was something you couldn't do."
Of course Zhang Shan could find out, but she didn't want to get involved in Qin Xiang's affairs.
Qin Xiang still didn't believe it: "You really can't find it?"
"I can't find it." Zhang Shan shook her head.
"Didn't you get to know anyone in City B during your previous training?" Qin Xiang still didn't give up.
"Then you overestimate me. I do know someone in City C. My hometown is in the same place as Taozi's husband. If you ask me, I might be able to help check it out."
Before Qin Xiang felt guilty, Taozi was furious and looked at Zhang Shan with a vigilant look, "Are you sick? Why are you investigating my husband? You should have told me about his ability problem earlier."
"Who cares about your husband? He's not even as tall as my husband." Ah Hua doesn't spoil her.
"Why are you making personal attacks?"
At this time, Wanwan came in and picked up her bag. "I'm sorry, little Naitang is crying so hard. I have to go back first. I'll treat you to dinner later."
"Hey, thanks late!"
Wanwan ignored Taozi and went out directly.
Since you know Taozi has nothing good to say, just choose not to listen.
"Taozi, didn't your aunt marry and move to City B? Ask your aunt for help."
Qin Xiang poured Taozi a drink and pushed it in her direction.
The two grew up together, and Qin Xiang knew everyone in Taozi's family.
"Okay, I'll ask my aunt to check it out."
Taozi looked at Zhang Shan proudly. Among the five people in the group, Zhang Shan had the best family background and married a man of equal status who was rich and powerful. She was also the person Taozi envied the most.
The second person I envy is of course Tan Xiang, who is the most beautiful and has countless suitors.
"Thank you, Taozi. You are really awesome." Zhang Shan toasted Taozi with a glass. Ahua and Qin Xiang also clinked their glasses and drank them all in one gulp.
It was getting late and they had almost finished eating. Qin Xiang was planning to go to the bar, but Zhang Shan and Ahua both said they wanted to go home to supervise their children doing their homework.
Taozi was an idle person and had nothing to do at home, so she followed Qin Xiang to the bar.
Ahua came here by Wanwan's car. Wanwan went back first, so she went home by Zhang Shan's car.
On the road.
Ah Hua complained about Taozi again, and then the topic shifted to Qin Xiang.
"I suggested that she get married and have children before, but she wanted freedom and to be free. Now she wants to get married again. What do you think is going on in her mind?"
"Who knows? Her affairs are not ours to control. She learned enough lessons in college."
Half a month after the party, Zhang Shan received Qin Xiang's wedding invitation.
The wedding was held in City B, and Zhang Shan and Ahua took half a day off.
The previous proposal of having them be bridesmaids was also shelved and they didn't ask.
Taozi, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable.
"Xie Wan is entangled with the child again?"
"Yes."
The child is still young and can't be left alone. Little Naitang is a very clingy child, so Wanwan really can't leave.
After Qin Xiang got married, she lived in City B and cut off contact with them.
Zhang Shan and the other two also became distant from Taozi. After all, their bond of contact was Tan Xiang, and without Tan Xiang, they naturally wouldn't keep in touch.
Three years later, Qin Xiang contacted them and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. Let's have dinner together?"
"That's unfortunate. We are still in confinement after childbirth. We have to choose another time."
Yes, they responded to national policy and gave birth to three children.
Qin Xiang hung up the phone with a gloomy face.
Why are they living so well while her life is entering the countdown?
During these three years, Qin Xiang had been pregnant many times, but none of them survived.
The reason turned out to be that she and her husband both had HIV, and either the child had defects, or the pregnancy ended because both of them were in poor health and the child was unhealthy.
Because of this disease, Qin Xiang was in panic for a long time. She couldn't accept this fact, so she hated Taozi.
If Taozi hadn't checked it out, how could she have been infected with HIV?
In order to take revenge on Taozi, Qin Xiang found Taozi's husband and infected Taozi with HIV through her husband, hoping that their family would be buried with her.
After taking revenge on Taozi and her aunt's family, Qin Xiang, who had nothing to do, thought of Zhang Shan and the other two.
If you are unhappy yourself, you also want to make others unhappy.
Zhang Shan learned of Tan Xiang's purpose through the system, hacked into the hospital, and sent Tan Xiang's examination results to Wanwan and Ahua.
There must be a teacher among three people (group chat):
Wanwan: "Isn't she trying to take revenge on society?"
Ah Hua: "If I have to take revenge, it's on Taozi."
Zhang San: "How do you know she didn't retaliate?"
Wanwan: shock jpg.
Ahua: Horrorjpg.
It didn't take long for Taozi and her husband to find out. After looking at the examination report, they fell into panic.
After the panic, the first thing I did was to take the elderly and children in my family to the hospital for a check-up.
The good news is that both the elderly and the children are fine.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Taozi discovered that her husband had cheated on her with her best friend.
So Taozi found Tan Xiang and had a big fight.
Tan Xiang divorced Taozi and got together with her husband openly to get revenge on her.
The relationship between the three was very chaotic, and Qin Xiang had no time to retaliate against society, so she dragged Zhang Shan and the other two into the quagmire.
Taozi, who could no longer tolerate this, picked up a knife and tortured the couple to death. The scene was extremely bloody and both of Taozi's children suffered from mental illness.
Meanwhile, Chen Feng, who was far away in the Rainbow Country, was still living a life of debauchery, surrounded by beauties, and living a life of living for the moment.
HIV medical history is personal privacy, and Taozi's aunt cannot find out about it. All she can find out is Chen Feng's family background.
Because of his prominent family background, they subconsciously ignored Chen Feng’s past love history and evaluations.
The funeral of the three was very quiet. Apart from Zhang Shan and the other two, there were only Taozi's two children and her parents-in-law.
"Your condolences!"
The two old men seemed to have aged by more than ten years, and their faces were full of fatigue.
Taozi's two children are under ten years old. They have lost their parents and suffer from serious mental illness. They look very pitiful.
"You and Bai Tao are good friends, can you adopt these two children?"
Although Zhang Shan felt sorry for them, she didn't want to adopt them. Not to mention that she had three children to take care of, and her relationship with Taozi was not that good.
"Sorry, Auntie, we can't adopt Xiaoxiao and Yangyang."
"Why? You are so well off. Adopting them is just a matter of having an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks. It's not like you can't afford it."
Zhang Shan and the other two were a little unhappy. Ah Hua was the first to stand up and said, "Because we don't have a very good relationship with Bai Tao, I don't think you can't afford to raise him, so why force your grandson to suffer in someone else's home."
Then he added, "We all have our own children, so we don't need to adopt a child to help us spend money."
After leaving, Ah Hua still felt very regretful, "If I had known I would not have come, I would have gotten myself into trouble."
"We won't have any more interactions in the future," Zhang Shan comforted.
Without Qin Xiang and Taozi, the friendship between the three of them is even better. They often have dinner together and go traveling together.
Later they moved to the same community and became neighbors, and decades later they became relatives.
