Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1491
They had to admit that the Lantern Festival was organized perfectly. There were all kinds of exquisite lanterns and gorgeous performances that attracted everyone's attention.
On such an occasion, there were many couples on the riverbank who began taking pictures. Some even got on their knees, proposing to their significant others. It was extremely lovely. The position of the wooden building really was at the perfect angle. Fade and the others had the perfect view of the performance. It was a one-of-a-kind experience.
After all the fireworks, everything started to dim and the place gradually quieted down.
"Is the lantern festival coming to an end? So fast?" Just as Fade was wondering, flickering lights slowly approached on the river surface.
The crowd on both sides of the river bank were all excited to see this. One after another, they began to cheer, and the scene resumed bustling with activity once more.
As the lights approached, Fade saw that the shining lights on the river were boats finely decorated with exquisite lanterns.
The boats were ornamented into different shapes and themes, and they were gleaming and eyecatching on the river.
As each lamp boat approached, the crowd on both sides would cheer loudly.
"What's going on?" Fade found it weird. Clara felt that Fade was having doubts. Pointing at the flags fluttering on the bow of the boat, she exclaimed, "Brother Chen, take a look at those flags!"
Fade fixed his eyes on the bow of each boat and noticed there was a flag on each of them. There were names printed on the flags such as "The Huang family of Zobery District", "The Cheston Group of Zobery District" and "The Chamber of Commerce of Zobery District".
"These... these lamp boats aren't officialized by the organizer?"
Clara nodded and explained, "The boats are not officialized by the organizer, but they are arranged separately by various well-known organizations in the Zobery District."
"As there are many organizations taking part in this Lantern Festival and there are limited slots for the boats, only powerful organizations could get their boats on the Wavey River."
"From a certain point of view, these boats can be regarded as a platform for them to advertise how powerful their organization is, and some might see it as a competition." After hearing Clara's explanation, Fade nodded his head.
It turned out that the Lantern Festival was not just all fun and games. It was also a platform for them to compete for how powerful their organization is. Upon thinking of this, Fade could not help glancing at Taufeeq and Cadmus. He asked Clara, "Did the Moo and Chai families also prepare lamp boats?"
Clara nodded and answered in a low voice, "My dad has made a lot of preparations for this festival. The same goes for the Chai family."
As soon she finished talking, a burst of enthusiastic cheers suddenly sounded from the field, instantly attracting all the eyes on the scene.
Fade looked up and saw two huge lantern boats gradually approaching them.
All the previous boats were fabulous and breathtaking, but compared to these two, they seemed like child's play.
First was the size. The two boats were thirty meters in length, the height and width were ten meters each. It was so tall that it was nearly the same height as the buildings on the riverbank.
In terms of the decoration, these two ships were obviously better adorned than all of the previous boats. All kinds of expensive materials and exquisite patterns were appropriately accessorized on the ship. Together with the blinding lights, the whole ship looked as if it was a huge moving palace, which was stunning.
Just by the decoration itself, it could be seen that they had spent tons of effort on these boats.
One of the boats was decorated like a dragon that was about to soar into the sky. Its grandness was extraordinary and astounding.
The other boat was embellished into a huge mountain and it gave out an oppressive feeling as if it could overcome everything.
"These two boats should belong to the Moo and Chai families!" Fade had this assumption in his mind and as he glanced at the flags on the bow, his assumption was correct.
The dragon-shaped boat belonged to the Moo family, and the mountain-shaped boat belonged to the Chai family.
With the appearance of the two boats, the atmosphere at the scene was getting more and more high-spirited and energetic.
All the ordinary people were discussing how gorgeous the boats were, while some of them were analyzing the situation.
"The Chai family and the Moo family are indeed among the top families in the Zobery District. It could be seen how impressive they are by the decoration of their boats. It's marvelous."
"It's true that they are among the top families, but now it's hard to say who is the first and who is the second."
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you understand? A few days ago, Zelson Chai, the leader of the Chai family and Horgan Chai, the young master of the Chai family were found dead. The Chai family has suffered a great deal because of that. The Moo family took this opportunity to overtake the Chai family."
"Look at the Moo family's lantern ship. That soaring dragon clearly indicates Taufeeq's ambitions!"
"If that's the case, the giant mountain on the Chai family's boat also shows their determination to suppress everything. It seems that the two families are going to have a head-on battle with each other."
"That's for sure. The two families have always competed with each other during the Lantern Festival but this year it is way more intense. Looks like it's going to be interesting."
The clamoring could be heard by everyone on the third floor.
Everyone was well aware of these things, but no one had pointed it out. Instead, they all pretended just to not hear it and retained their smiles to maintain the harmonious atmosphere.
However, when the two boats drove to the two sides of the central island, their speed gradually slowed down and finally stopped in front of the two sides of the central island. The expressions of everyone on the third floor altered.
Taufeeq and Cadmus stared at each other. Their gazes were slightly stern, then they withdrew their stares and put on a straight face.
Among the big shots ofZobery District, an old man with white hair walked forward. After glancing at the two sides, he announced loudly, "It's almost time. The competition for the Lantern Festival can now begin."
Hearing his words, Taufeeq and Cadmus almost nodded simultaneously. They waved their hands and said, "Begin now."
Along with their words, Fade saw three silhouettes appear on each of the two lamp boats. They were all finely dressed, their muscles were bulging and they exuded positive energy from their bodies. One could tell at a glance that they were skillful martial artists.
"Is this a Martial Arts Contest?" Fade looked at Clara, slightly surprised.
