Gamblers tend to get carried away, wanting to win more when they win and wanting to win back losses. As a result, the young man directly borrowed fifty thousand yuan in usurious loans.
The Tigers lent money on the basis of "nine out, thirteen back."
The so-called "nine out, thirteen back" meant that for every ten thousand yuan borrowed, only nine thousand was given, but thirteen thousand had to be repaid.
The young man was already carried away. After borrowing fifty thousand, he didn't even play a couple of rounds before borrowing another fifty thousand.
Of course, the result was the same. When the young man lost all his money and wanted to borrow more, they stopped lending.
After all, in this county, not many people could come up with over a hundred thousand yuan at once.
Unexpectedly, the young man secretly brought back a necklace.
He took an instant liking to the necklace at first glance, so he gave the young man two hundred thousand yuan.
The young man agreed readily, paid off the usurious loans directly, and then went to gamble with the remaining money.
He wanted to win back his losses.
Since it was a windfall, he might as well take advantage of it. The final result was that he left the card room completely broke.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jun took a liking to the necklace and bought it for one million yuan.
One million yuan was no small sum, and he thought he had made a profit at the time.
Unexpectedly, the young man brought someone to redeem the necklace, claiming he had stolen it from his sister.
As a result, Wang Jun asked for an exorbitant price of thirty million yuan.
What was thirty million yuan?
It was an amount he couldn't save in his lifetime, even if he didn't eat or drink.
He was stunned at that moment.
The woman who accompanied the young man quietly said that redeeming it for thirty million yuan was still a good deal.
When he overheard this, he became impulsive.
Why should the thirty million yuan he received be snatched away by someone else, especially after he had been dealt with for only a million yuan?
He felt increasingly uneasy.
Even so, there was no need to kill Wang Jun.
How could he have killed Wang Jun?
"Officer, officer, it wasn't me who killed him, it was the necklace, it was the necklace," Li Xingwang shouted loudly.
"What necklace? Tell me from the beginning."
Li Xingwang recounted the entire story, from setting up the trap to luring the young man in, the young man coming to redeem the necklace, and Wang Jun's exorbitant demand of thirty million yuan.
The interrogator asked Li Xingwang to produce the necklace, but he searched all his bags and found no trace of it.
"Impossible, impossible, the necklace must have fallen in the shop," Li Xingwang said, appearing somewhat deranged.
The police officer arranged for the interrogation of the other people present. They all claimed they hadn't seen the necklace.
This was baffling.
Li Xingwang's behavior didn't seem like he was lying, but the others claimed they hadn't seen the necklace.
There must be something wrong here, but they couldn't pinpoint where the problem lay.
The interrogation reached a stalemate.
However, the fact that Li Xingwang killed Wang Jun was undeniable.
The testimonies of the others were astonishingly consistent. Only Li Xingwang himself claimed he hadn't killed anyone.
No matter how Li Xingwang argued, the charges of illegal gambling and public murder were inescapable.
Why did the others claim they hadn't seen the necklace?
This was because when Guo Xuyang released Li Xingwang from his hypnosis, he had directly erased that particular memory from the minds of the other individuals.
Since he was capable of engaging in usury and swindling, he was certainly not a good person.
Therefore, he had no intention of letting Li Xingwang escape legal repercussions.
No one knew about what he had done.
Meanwhile, Guo Xuyang and Wang Yibo were busy arranging the sound system, wine, and cake.
Since they were organizing the wedding ceremony themselves, there was no need to distinguish between Chinese and Western styles. As long as the wedding was lively enough, that was all that mattered.
"How are you feeling? Nervous?" Guo Xuyang asked.
"Not nervous. I've seen bigger scenes than this.
Marriage ceremonies usually follow a few standard steps: introducing the couple, bowing to heaven and earth, bowing to elders, and the couple's reciprocal bow, followed by escorting them to the bridal chamber.
Then there are interspersed events like exchanging rings, cutting the cake, and distributing the cake.
Since we're doing it ourselves, we can do it however we want. Whatever we do is correct, as long as everyone enjoys it and the atmosphere is lively."
"Alright. You'll be in charge of the main event later. Make this wedding lively."
"Don't worry, Mr. Guo. You can count on me for this kind of thing," Wang Yibo said.
In reality, Guo Xuyang had never seen Wang Yibo promote products or use his eloquence, so he had no idea what he was capable of.
Guo Xuhui and his party arrived quickly, descending the highway before 10:10 AM.
After joining the waiting convoy, they began their journey home.
Over sixty cars formed a long procession, and every time they encountered a traffic light, they had to wait for several minutes.
Of course, they also attracted a lot of attention. Everyone knew about this convoy.
When Guo Xuhui arrived at his doorstep, it was exactly 10:36 AM.
Hearing the sound of firecrackers at the entrance, Wang Yibo knew that Guo Xuhui and his group had arrived.
He cleared his throat and announced, "Distinguished guests, family, and friends, today is a joyous occasion.
On this beautiful winter day, a handsome man and a beautiful woman will walk into the temple of marriage, embarking on their wonderful life together.
Now, let's invite the groom, Guo Xuhui, and the bride, Xiao Li, to the stage. Please give them a warm welcome."
Wang Yibo had timed it perfectly.
At 10:38 AM, not a minute early or late.
Guo Xuhui and Xiao Li walked onto the stage hand in hand, bowing repeatedly to thank their friends and family in the audience.
"I just saw that behind the handsome groom and beautiful bride are the groomsmen and bridesmaids.
Let me first ask the bridesmaid, isn't the groom handsome today?"
"Handsome. So handsome he's bubbling over."
"Let me ask the groomsman, isn't the bride beautiful today?"
"Beautiful. As beautiful as a fairy."
"Then why aren't you quick to offer your blessings?"
Wang Yibo maintained the rhythm and handed the microphone to a bridesmaid.
"Wishing the bride and groom a harmonious union for a hundred years."
He then handed the microphone to the second bridesmaid.
"Wishing the bride and groom to have many children soon."
He handed the microphone to the third bridesmaid.
"Wishing the bride and groom to have today's joy every year and to be together always."
As soon as this bridesmaid finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter.
The bridesmaid's ears also turned red.
Wang Yibo quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "This beautiful young lady's blessing is very interesting.
I believe she is wishing that the bride and groom, on every anniversary in the future, will be just like today, always loving each other and walking hand in hand."
The bridesmaid gratefully looked at Wang Yibo.
This one remark led to a beautiful marriage, and the bridesmaid later became Wang Yibo's bride.
No one could have predicted this.
Therefore, when people are in difficulty, extending a helping hand of friendship not only earns friendship but can even lead to love.
The entire wedding ceremony was very lively. Wang Yibo left the stage to the bride and groom, allowing them to share their love story and look forward to a beautiful future.
From beginning to end, Wang Yibo escalated the wedding ceremony to one climax after another. The scene was filled with cheers, applause, and laughter.
Guo Xuyang suddenly realized that Wang Yibo was a truly exceptional talent.
