Chapter 2297: A Great Sense of Achievement
Under everyone’s gaze, the door of the banquet hall opened. An Jichuan, who was wearing a black custom-made suit, appeared in front of everyone.
The man was dressed entirely in black with a perfectly ironed white s.h.i.+rt underneath. He was tall and handsome, his facial features well-defined.
His dark eyes were like a deep pool that seemed to be able to suck one’s soul in.
All the women who saw An Jichuan could not help but feel their hearts beating faster.
Such a man had an irresistible charm. They could not help but be mesmerized by him.
The next to appear was Shen Ranran. She wore the most custom-made white floor-length gown. Her hair was high and she wore a sparkling diamond crown. She also wore embroidered white gloves on her arms.
She gently held onto An Jichuan’s arm and lifted her chin slightly. She looked elegant and n.o.ble like a princess with a European style.
As soon as the newcomer walked into the banquet hall, there were praises and applause from both sides. Everyone was praising them for being a match made in heaven.
An Jichuan came to the stage and scanned the audience.
He saw Shen Sikang sitting in the same row as his mother. He was nodding as if he was satisfied with their engagement.
An Jichuan sneered in his heart and looked away.
After that, the emcee began to host the engagement ceremony. They went through the procedures one by one.
It was also the most important part of the intermediate segment where the newcomers exchanged tokens.
The Shen family brought out a priceless piece of jade. Shen Ranran looked at the handsome An Jichuan and felt a great sense of accomplishment. With the Shen family’s wealth, she and An Jichuan were a good match.
She would never forget how he had rejected her when she was pursuing him.
Now, their marriage was finally successful. It was equivalent to winning back a round.
There was an unparalleled pride in her beautiful and exquisite smile. It was as if she was saying, “Look, you ignored me back then. Now, aren’t you also kneeling under my skirt to save your An Group?”
It was the An family’s turn to show the token. Everyone was waiting. Shen Ranran was also waiting, curious about what he could offer in exchange for the token.
An Jichuan suddenly took a step towards Shen Ranran and whispered into her ear, “I’ve prepared a special gift for you!”
“What present?”
Shen Ranran was full of antic.i.p.ation.
An Jichuan turned to look at the entrance of the banquet hall. Shen Ranran also subconsciously turned to look at him. At this moment, the door of the banquet hall opened, and the commotion at the entrance attracted everyone’s attention.
Soon, a few policemen in black uniforms appeared at the door. Their appearance shocked everyone present. They all wanted to know why the police had come.
Could it be that the friends of the An family or the Shen family were police officers?
“What do you mean?”
An Jichuan did not answer. His eyes turned cold. When he looked at Shen Ranran, there was clearly a hint of disdain in his eyes.
The police entered the scene and came to the front of the stage. They showed Shen Sikang their arrest warrant. “Mr. Shen, according to our investigation, we suspect that you are involved in a murder case. Please follow us back for investigation! This is the arrest warrant!”
Shen Sikang immediately jumped up from his seat and shouted, “Officer, are you serious? Today is my daughter’s engagement ceremony. Why are you here to arrest me?”
When Shen Ranran saw this, she panicked too. “You can’t arrest my father. My father didn’t commit any crime. Are you mistaken?”
