Chapter 470 The Huo family’s invitation
Mr. Li received a call from his subordinates: "The matter has been settled. This afternoon, the police will hold a press conference to officially announce the reopening of An Xiaozhen's disappearance case, and disclose some undisclosed information to collect relevant information from the whole society. An Xiaozhen’s clues.”
Mr. Li was satisfied with this: "Thank you for your hard work."
His subordinates will take this opportunity to lead public opinion and the people to believe that the truth of this case is that the An family colluded with outsiders and secretly abandoned An Xiaozhen.
Of course, there is no need to limit who is the "ghost" of the An family. Anyone is possible, so let netizens doubt the An family.
After hanging up the phone, he sat down, picked up the perfectly foamed Biluochun, took a sip, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of Biluochun left in his mouth.
At this moment, the assistant walked into the study softly and said respectfully: "Mr. Li, the Huo family has sent you an invitation."
Mr. Li opened his eyes: "Which Huo family?"
There is no famous family in the capital with the surname Huo.
The assistant said: "It's the Huo family from the Western Military Region."
Mr. Li sat up slightly: "We have no contact with the Huo family. Why did the Huo family suddenly send me an invitation? What kind of invitation was it?"
The assistant presented a wedding invitation with red background and gold foil in both hands: "I have seen it. It is the wedding invitation of Mr. Huo's only granddaughter, Major General Huo Shengji, and the second son of the An family, An Jingrui. The wedding is scheduled for tomorrow."
"The person who sent the invitation said that they came here on a military plane just to send this invitation to you and at the same time wait for your reply whether to go or not."
The assistant paused for a moment, hesitated and then said: "This matter is a bit strange. I have inquired about it. Apart from people in the military and immediate family members of the An family, only you and Mr. Luo received invitations to this wedding, and I don't know about Huo Huo." What does home and settling down mean?”
Mr. Li personally contacted his old subordinates in Nan Province to deal with the matter of the Anjia, without going through the people around him, so the assistant did not know Mr. Li's attitude towards the Anjia.
"The Anjia family is actually marrying the Huo family?" Boss Li was surprised. He took the invitation, opened the inner pages, and read them word by word.
After reading it, he closed his eyes and sighed longly: "The An family... are really capable. One climbed up to the Luo family, and the other climbed to the Huo family."
The Luo family is rich, and the Huo family has power, including military power.
This Anjia really has everything.
After he finished speaking, he didn't say anything for a long time, and didn't even open his eyes.
After waiting for a long time, the assistant said cautiously: "Mr. Li, the Huo family is still waiting for your reply."
Mr. Li slowly opened his eyes, with deep helplessness in his eyes: "Go tell the Huo family that I will attend this wedding."
The Huo family specially sent this invitation to him, just to tell him that the Huo family would settle down.
The fact that he went to the wedding meant that he did not want to antagonize the Huo family. To put it bluntly, he was just being submissive.
If he refuses to attend the wedding, it means that he is not willing to antagonize the Huo family, and the Huo family will not give the Li family face.
At his age, he naturally knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
Luo Yuan has the Luo family to contain him, so there is no need for the Li family to go out of his way to deal with Luo Yuan. The An family has the support of Professor ∞. Calculated this way, the Li family and the An family can be considered a "tie" and have a slight advantage.
However, with the Huo family as an in-law, the balance of power in the An family tilted towards the An family.
If the Li family still insists on going against the An family, Li Jing will not be the only one who needs to sacrifice.
The assistant nodded: "Okay, I will inform the Huo family now."
After the assistant left, Mr. Li reluctantly cheered up, picked up his mobile phone, and called his old subordinates in Nan Province: "Thank you for making one more trip, and ask the police to cancel the reopening of An Xiaozhen's case immediately..."
In the afternoon of the same day, the official Weibo account of the Nancheng Police released a message: We received numerous calls from people asking the police if they would reopen the case of An Xiaozhen’s disappearance. We would like to declare that the police currently do not have any more information about An Xiaozhen. The clues in the missing case are not considered for a full investigation at this time.
In addition, An Xiaozhen's case has not been closed, and the police have never given up investigating the case. If the public has new clues, please inform the police immediately.
Joey saw the news immediately and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, she doesn't have to take the risk of confronting An Jia directly.
After thinking about it, she sent a secret email: Start the substitute plan immediately...
The next day.
In the morning, An Jingrui and Huo Shengji, wearing casual clothes and masks, were sent to the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau by the An family, then got off the car and walked into the marriage registration hall together.
In order to avoid attracting the attention and onlookers of passers-by, the An family did not go in and waited quietly in the car.
More than an hour later, An Jingrui and Huo Shengji walked out with their red marriage certificates, got into An's car, and headed to Chuangshi Hotel together.
After the two had something to eat in the hotel, they showered, changed clothes, put on makeup, put on their wedding attire, and attended the wedding.
Although there were not many people attending the wedding, less than a hundred people in total, they were all extraordinary.
When Mr. Li arrived at the wedding scene, he saw that except for the An family, all the others present were military officers. There were more than a dozen people at the general level alone.
This shows the Huo family's status in the military.
He also knew in his heart that this was what the Huo family asked him to see with his own eyes.
Although the Li family had a dispute with the An family, the An family was still very polite to him, treating him as a guest and letting him sit at the same table with the two elderly people of the An family, Mr. Huo and others.
He also gave the An family and Huo family a lot of face. Not only did he bring generous gifts, he also talked, laughed and feasted during the dinner. He was so approachable that no one could tell that he had anything to do with the An family.
As soon as it got dark, the wedding banquet ended. The guests were very satisfied with this simple but efficient banquet, with first-class environment, no interruptions, and especially delicious food, and they left without feeling tired.
Mr. Li also took a special plane and rushed back to the imperial capital directly.
The first thing he did when he returned to the imperial capital was to see Li Jing, and then told her: "You will hold a press conference tomorrow, do as An Yuan said, and publicly admit your mistake. This means that the Li family does not know what you have done. You kidnapped the An family purely out of jealousy and apologize to the An family."
"For those two videos, you also have to apologize to the whole society and the people of the country! You said that you were influenced by bad ideas from abroad, you are corrupt and you are unworthy of the country's cultivation and trust!"
"As for the lithography machine, let your incompetent second uncle take the blame. The reason is that he was incited by overseas reactionaries and used your computer to invade Professor ∞'s scientific research institute and steal the confidential documents of the lithography machine."
Li Jing was shocked when he heard this: "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"
"Who is our Li family? How can we surrender to the An family? If I do this, the Li family will no longer be able to hold its head high in the circle..."
"This is the only way to save the Li family!" Mr. Li had no expression on his face, and he no longer showed the same kindness to her as before. "Only by sacrificing you and a useless good-for-nothing can we clear away the responsibility of the Li family. Otherwise, the entire Li family will be wiped out." They are all dragged down by your narrow-mindedness.”
