Chapter 182 Is it really that effective?
The guests were startled and all looked toward the entrance.
Five or six people, men and women, rushed in from outside, each with an angry expression on their face.
After opening the door, they tried to rush onto the stage without saying a word. When hotel staff stopped them, they began smashing and destroying anything within reach, shouting and yelling as they did so.
"Cai Tianbing, you bitch, you cheated me out of so much money! And now you're going to marry someone else?"
"And me! Cai Tianbing! Didn't you say you'd be with me? I bought you a car and a house, I gave you all my money, and you just ran away without a word?"
"You shameless mistress! You tricked my husband into spending so much money on you. That's all our joint property. If you don't give it back to me, you'll never have a good life!"
……
The guests were dumbfounded.
When have they ever seen anything like this?
Especially the guests who had just said "I hope Anling will not let us down," first stared blankly at everything that was happening before their eyes, then suddenly looked at Anling, their eyes filled with shock: Is it really that effective?
Soon, everyone extracted the key information from those people's words: these people were after the bride! Every word they said implied that Cai Tianbing had cheated them out of their money!
Tao Qingjun was initially confused, but after understanding what those people were saying, he grabbed Cai Tianbing, who was trying to sneak away, and angrily questioned her:
"What exactly is going on? Explain yourself! Who are these people?!"
"I don't know, I don't know them, really, I don't even know who they are!" Cai Tianbing looked panicked.
"When you were taking money and gifts, weren't you calling me 'good brother' and 'darling' all the time? How come you don't recognize me now?" the man who had caused a scene at the wedding shouted.
An Ling grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds from who-knows-where and started cracking them open herself.
The thought of the Tao family father and son being completely fooled by professional swindlers makes me want to laugh.
An family: ?
Their privileges had by then vanished completely.
What is a professional con artist?
Cai Tianbing is a professional fishmonger who makes money by dating or flirting with men to scam them out of money and gifts. Tao Qingjun first met Cai Tianbing when she was on a date with one of his fish.
However, after Cai Tianbing figured out how wealthy the Tao family was, she realized that she had probably caught the biggest fish she had ever caught in her scams. Marrying directly into a wealthy family would obviously be much more profitable than raising fish.
Fearing the fish would ruin her plans, she repented and stopped managing the fishpond, focusing all her attention on Tao Qingjun instead. But things still went wrong.
"With so many people here today, I'll show you all whether you recognize us or not!"
The people who caused the disturbance at the wedding seemed to have been prepared in advance; each of them pulled out a thick stack of papers and threw them at the guests one stack at a time.
It turns out that the victims teamed up and compiled their fraudulent transfer records, gift purchase records, some explicit chat logs, and photos with Cai Tianbing into PDF documents. They then printed and bound these documents into paper evidence and brought them to the wedding.
Almost every guest had a copy, and after reading it, they realized that the few people who came today were only a small part of the fishpond, and most of them didn't come because they didn't want to lose face.
Cai Tianbing could no longer lie through her teeth, and she cried with tears streaming down her face.
"I'm sorry, Qingjun, but these are all people I knew before I met you. After I got together with you, I haven't had any contact with any of them. I swear!"
To be honest, it was consensual for them to give me money, wasn't it? I didn't steal or rob anyone. I admit I was a bit vain and accepted some gifts while interacting with them, but that's not some heinous crime, is it?
Tao Qingjun's complexion was still not good, and so was Tao Yuantian's.
In fact, the money Cai Tianbing swindled was insignificant to them, but now that those people had caused trouble at the wedding, it was really embarrassing for the Tao family.
“Yuantian, Qingjun,” Hu Yin’s gentle voice rang out, “It’s all my fault. I didn’t educate Xiaobing well, and she did something wrong.”
“I raised her all by myself, and there were just too many things I couldn’t manage. It’s all my fault, so blame me if you want.”
Hu Yin also shed a few tears, which made the Tao family father and son feel very sorry for her.
"Qingjun, it's okay if you don't want to marry Xiaobing anymore. I'll take her home. Let's just say that we, mother and daughter, have no connection with your Tao family. We'll raise the child in our bellies ourselves, so you don't need to worry about it."
She wiped away her tears and pulled Cai Tianbing away.
"Wait!" the Tao father and son said in unison to stop them.
“You’re just too stubborn,” Tao’s father sighed, taking Hu Yin’s hand and saying, “When did I say I wouldn’t let Xiao Bing marry Qing Jun? Xiao Bing is young, it’s normal for her to make mistakes, I understand.”
The banquet hall was quite large, and with several people shouting, it was difficult for everyone to hear what the four people on the stage were saying. All that could be seen was the bride and her daughter crying and saying something before Tao Yuantian picked up the microphone and spoke to the audience.
“You troublemakers, please quiet down. You’ve been causing a ruckus at my son’s wedding banquet and smashing things. I could call the police, but today is my son’s big day, and I don’t want to make things too ugly.”
Since you're here for the money, I'll say this: if you leave now and don't disrupt the wedding, the Tao family is willing to give you the money.
Now, everyone, whether they were there to cause trouble or to watch the show, was dumbfounded.
When did Tao Yuantian become a saint?
He can tolerate this?
[Sigh, his main concern is that he doesn't want to lose Ni Jiaqin's two stand-ins, especially since both mother and daughter are pregnant and have Tao family blood; he can't just ignore them.]
"Do you mean what you say?" one of the troublemakers questioned.
“My Tao family wouldn’t stoop to renege on a debt for such a small amount of money. If you leave the hall now, my daughter will give you the money,” Tao Yuantian replied. “But if any of you don’t leave, you can forget about getting the money.”
The troublemakers looked at each other, seemingly unable to believe that their goal had been achieved so easily.
Are the Tao family being taken advantage of?
But they came here for money anyway, so we might as well trust him for now. If he's lying, they'll come back in ten days!
Upon receiving the task from her father, Tao Qingxu didn't say anything. She simply walked to the gate and gestured for the troublemakers to follow her.
The hall finally returned to calm. After Tao Yuantian apologized to the guests, the wedding ceremony continued as if nothing had happened.
But less than two minutes later, the door was kicked open from the outside with a loud bang.
