Chapter 860: Inauspicious Sign
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The scene was silent.
Everyone’s eyes were on the Old Master.
Everyone knew what the Old Master was about to say, even if he didn’t finish...
The Rong family’s second branch had been in charge of the Rong Corporation for a month and had caused chaos in the corporation. In addition, the family’s business did not perform well in the stock market, and the Rong Corporation had lost hundreds of millions in market value.
The Old Master had to make a decision to prevent the corporation from falling again.
Such a grand banquet at sea was not only to celebrate the family’s new babies, but more importantly, it was to announce good news for the family and solemnly save the falling corporation.
Rong Linyi would definitely return to the corporation.
However, these were only the guests’ understanding and not the Old Master’s final words...
Because at the last sentence, his expression suddenly froze. He opened his mouth and the words he was about to say turned into a mouthful of blood and sprayed out.
The entire venue was in an uproar.
“Father!” Second Madam Rong seemed to have been prepared for this. The moment the change occured, she jumped up and pounced.
“Father, what’s wrong? What’s wrong?” She howled as if she was crying.
Madam Rong was also shocked and she subconsciously looked at Rong Linyi.
Rong Linyi frowned and shook his head slightly, indicating that this had nothing to do with him. He then walked forward.
The Old Master was already carried down from the stage.
Such an unforeseen event had happened before the banquet had even begun. It was really not an auspicious sign. For a time, the guests were also a little at a loss and didn’t know what to do next.
Rong Linyi walked on stage and casually wiped the microphone to control the situation.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we’re very sorry about the accident just now. I believe Grandpa has just been overworked recently, and there won’t be any major problems. Please enjoy yourself, and we will inform everyone of Grandpa’s situation as soon as possible. Don’t worry, tonight is still a banquet to celebrate our Rong family’s new lives. Please do as you wish.”
The Old Master’s words were already obvious.
Rong Linyi had already returned to the position of the family head. His words were equivalent to the “imperial edict” now.
The guests were still uneasy, but they still decided to wait and see.
Besides, they could only return to their rooms in the vast sea.
After tonight, the cruise would return. There was nothing to worry about when they reached land.
The atmosphere at the banquet slowly became warm again.
Rong Linyi had already left...
“What did the doctor say?” He walked out of the banquet hall and asked Madam Rong.
“The wine has been sent for identification. It seems to contain stimulating drugs that have injured the esophagus and intestines.” Madam Rong was worried. “They’ve already gone to retrieve the surveillance cameras...”
“Is Grandpa’s life in danger?” Rong Linyi asked.
“Probably not.” Madam Rong replied. “The doctor has already started the emergency treatment, and it doesn’t seem like there will be a big problem.”
The hospital was in the middle of the cruise ship and was not far from the banquet hall.
Old Master Rong had already caught his breath after the doctor’s emergency treatment.
“How could Father end up like this?” The Rong family’s second branch were all angry. “Who put something in the wine? Our second branch has finally organized a banquet, but this actually happened. Who has such evil intentions?”
Although they didn’t specify any names, it was more or less targeted.
