Chapter 14
More than two months is enough time to prepare for a luxurious wedding, but the Li family does not have the intention of organizing a big show, just find a hotel near the military area of Li Yuanhang.
The XX Hotel is not far from the military area, just a few hours drive. The company where Li Yuanhang is located, almost the whole company mobilized, in the wedding site standing neatly, so that the atmosphere of the scene became solemn. Gu Pan Pan’s father, Gu Gu Guo, was also present, he was talking to the third company commander, and when he saw his own daughter walk in from behind Shen Xinrui, his face couldn’t help but show a displeased look.
“Pan Pan, why don’t you stay at home and run here?” Gu Gu Guo walked over, pulled Gu Pan Pan and scolded her in a low voice, adding, “Even if you wanted to come, you should have reported to me before coming.”
“Dad, I’m on vacation now, why do I have to report everything to you. Besides, I know Lai Yuanhang, what’s wrong with coming to his wedding? Besides, I’m just accompanying Xinrui.” Gu Panpan grunted with her mouth full of concern, and at the end of the day, she looked at today’s groomsman in a conspiratorial manner, and said with a smile on her face, “Pops, Xinrui is the groomsman’s childhood friend, close and inseparable sister, and they’re very close!”
When Gu Pan Pan said the word “intimate” word by word, Han Yilin who was beside Li Yuanhang’s side, her face suddenly became very ugly, she secretly gripped the bouquet in her hand, and then said to Shen Xinrui who had been silent since she came over, “It’s Xinrui’s sister, right, I’ve often heard Xiaoyuan mentioning you, saying that you’re his cute little sister. He said that you are his cute little sister. Xiao Yuan and I invited you to the wedding, but uncle said you were sick, so we didn’t notify you again. Seeing that you’ve come over now, are you well?”
Shen Xinrui didn’t answer, still silent as she looked at Lai Yuanhang, who was also looking at her, his eyes deep and containing meaningful emotions. Seeing this situation, Han Yilin wisely closed her mouth and didn’t open it again, but slightly awkwardly stood there.
The two kept staring at each other in silence, and after a long time, the atmosphere at the scene became subtle. The guests who came to the wedding did not understand why the groom kept looking at the woman who came behind him, not even paying attention to his own bride, does this wedding still need to be held? For a moment, the crowd was talking, Li’s mother, Xia Ling, couldn’t hold the smile on her face, but she didn’t know if she should go out and intervene with her son at this time.
Xiu Junbo leaned on one side with his arms crossed to watch, completely not intending to get involved in the attitude, but his daughter-in-law Gu Panpan was very happy to see such a situation, stood beside the Gu Gu and the country smiled like a flower. The little cherry mouth cracked wide open, pink lips high up, looked delicious, so he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. It had only been a little over a week since he’d seen him, and his lovely treasure was getting more and more tantalizing.
Secretly glanced around, see no one pay attention to his side, Xiu Junbo slowly moved over, and then motionless in the
He was not able to see Gu Pan Pan’s buttocks, but he pinched it. The other party was first startled, and then realized that after, and shy and annoyed to lift his feet back to kick him.
The small action here did not attract anyone’s attention, the crowd is still watching the development of today’s main event.
Everyone had their own thoughts, no one said a word, and the scene gradually became awkward. As the bride, Han Yilin was restless, tiptoeing to look outside the hotel from time to time, and after a few round trips, she finally couldn’t help but tug on Lai Yuanhang at her side.
“Xiao Yuan, shall we start?” Han Yilin opened her mouth lowly, her voice a little shaky, as if she was afraid of something.
Lai Yuanhang didn’t respond, still looking at Shen Xinrui, his firm chin slightly raised as if he wanted to say something. But when Han Yilin saw that he didn’t answer herself, she tugged on his sleeve once more, “Little Yuan, Little Yuan! I said, let …… us start, okay?”
Lai Yuanhang finally returned to his senses and gave a hmmm without looking back, then he withdrew the gaze that had been falling on Shen Xinrui, and was about to turn around when a hand suddenly pulled on his hand.
“Brother Li.” Shen Xinrui called out in a high voice, she pulled on Lai Yuanhang’s hand and looked at him with the same good-natured smile as when she was a child, “Brother Lai, are you really getting married?”
Faced with that long-lost familiar smile, Lai Yuanhang froze, his eyes fluttering as they fell on the hands they held. The other party’s slender white fingers were tightly wrapped around his own hand, white jade-like moist fingers embedded between each finger, then firmly clasped, the force was so great that the tips of those fingers were slightly whitened. Looking up, Shen Xinrui smiled sweetly, a mist of water filled her eyes. Obviously crying in the eyes, the corners of the mouth but had to hook out a smile, such a her, he looked so heartbroken.
“Rui Rui ……” Lai Yuanhang couldn’t help but raise the hand that was held by Han Yilin, slowly moving forward to touch the face of that forced smile.
Little by little, close to the eye is about to touch, the wedding march suddenly sounded, loud and clear song alarmed Li Yuanhang violently retracted his hand, Shen Xinrui eyes of the last ray of hope of the fire and then extinguished.
It is Li mother Xia Ling opened the stereo, for his son and Shen Xinrui ambiguous, she more or less know some. Originally, she also wanted to bring the two together, but now there is a Han Yilin, even if she no longer like her or not, but she has already given birth to a daughter for the Li family, and it would be immoral not to get married. As for the bit of ambiguity between her son and Shen Xinrui, it would be better to nip it in the bud before the situation escalated any further.
“Ahem, Hang’er, don’t keep everyone waiting, quickly take Yilin to the master of ceremonies.” Mother Li walked over and rigidly inserted herself between Li Yuanhang and Shen Xinrui, she pushed him forward as she spoke, then turned to look at Shen Xinrui with a smile, “Xinrui ah, it’s good that you’ve recovered from your illness. Come, Auntie will take you to sit over here, and we’ll together
watch your brother Lai and sister-in-law Han get married.” After speaking, she reached out to pull her.
Shen Xinrui took a step back and quickly dodged Mother Li’s hand before unclasping the necklace around her own neck and holding it in the palm of her hand, then slowly walked over to Han Yilin’s face.
“Sister-in-law.” She opened her mouth, trailing off unsteadily, her voice as broken as it was. “This is what Brother Li asked me to keep, the ring from when he proposed to you back then. I’ve kept it for more than three years, and now, the object-returns-to-its-original-owner.” The last four words she uttered with all her might, her frail body shaking.
Han Yilin looked uneasily at Shen Xinrui, looking at her bloodless face and the eyes that were on the verge of collapse, she really didn’t dare to reach out and pick it up.
The scene was once again frozen, and after half a second, just as Mother Li was planning to take the necklace for Han Yilin, Lai Yuanhang, who had been grimacing all along, suddenly reached out and took the necklace from Shen Xinrui.
“If you’re still not well, don’t participate in the next wedding ceremony, it’s good that I know what you’re thinking.” Lai Yuanhang spoke in a slightly impulsive tone, his eyes full of displeasure. The necklace in his hand still carried the residual warmth from Shen Xinrui’s body, holding it like this, the temperature wasn’t high but it burned his palm slightly.
“Yes, brother Li.” Shen Xinrui responded obediently, her empty hand falling quickly, her fine white fingers trembling slightly. Such a little movement didn’t escape Li Yuanhang’s eyes, and his face became even more ugly, then he turned around with force and led Han Yilin forward.
The tune of the wedding march echoed around, the loud sound hovering above for a long time as the beautiful bride slowly walked to the smiling emcee on the groom’s hand. The master of ceremonies solemnly pronounced the sacred vows, the handsome groom without the slightest hesitation to say “I do”. The bride looked down at the woman who was on the verge of tears, then lowered her head and whispered “I do”, and then the ring was exchanged.
Shen Xinrui stood there, staring deeply at the groom above, watching him pick up the ring from the bridesmaid’s hand on the wedding plate, he took up the bride’s hand, the ring flooded with silver light to the ring finger and went ……
“Bing!”
A scenery-breaking sound suddenly emerged, the crowd sniffed and looked, just to see the table at the entrance of the hotel was pushed over, and the things on it fell all over the ground. A tall man in a black trench coat quickly ran away, and another thin man was pushed over the table and was struggling to get up.
“Mu Yunsheng?”
Seeing the man’s appearance, Lai Yuanhang whispered with some confusion before seeing him slowly walk in.
Wearing a white hoodie and topped with an expressionless face, Mu Yunsheng looked like a cultivator who had come out of a deep forest. Even so, the crowd still marveled at his handsome and dusty appearance, as well as his temperament that was as cool as the wind.
Ignoring the crowd’s stunning gazes, Mu Yunsheng walked into the hotel and walked towards Shen Xinrui without looking askance, and then stood beside her. “You’re not at home, I came to find you.”
“Yunsheng ……,” Shen Xinrui froze and opened her mouth, surprised that Mu Yunsheng would find her here.
At this time, the frozen crowd finally came back to their senses, pointing at Mu Yunsheng and exchanging words.
The surroundings became noisy, and Mu Yusheng, who was surrounded by murmurs, couldn’t help but frown, and then faintly said towards Shen Xinrui, “Go home.”
Shen Xinrui first froze, then shook her head, looking ahead to maintain the posture of Li Yuanhang who was going to wear a ring for his bride, and softly said, “I want to see it through, I want to watch with my own eyes as brother Li, on behalf of his bride, puts on the ring, the ring, the finger.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunsheng pursed his lips and did not speak again. He stood behind Shen Xinrui and raised his eyes to look at Li Yuanhang, his gaze cold as a knife.
Lai Yuanhang didn’t care and withdrew his gaze, then continued to put the ring on Han Yilin with equanimity.
“Xiao Yuan, you ……” Han Yilin spoke in a low voice, once again looking at Shen Xinrui on the stage, and subconsciously shrinking her hand back when she saw the teardrops about to fall from her eyes.
“Don’t move.” Lai Yuanhang spoke in a deep voice, then tightly tugged on Han Yilin’s finger, and the delicate ring was directly set into it.
“With a crackle, Shen Xinrui seemed to hear her heart violently split open, countless cracks bursting open, and finally the whole thing shattered all over the ground. Past memories from the broken heart flashed one by one, beautiful, happy, pain, crying,…… a piece of a piece of piercing pain. Such pain she could not withstand, a burst of blackness in front of her eyes, weak feet, no longer able to hold on.
Layout of the gorgeous church began to spin, all the people and things began to haze. Shen Xinrui’s world was collapsing bit by bit, the world that was not beautiful but had Li Yuanhang in it was collapsing and would soon turn into a ruin.
“Xinrui!!!”
Before the world went black, Shen Xinrui heard Gu Pan Pan screaming loudly, and there was no telling who it was, also calling out for herself. Dazedly, she seemed to see Lai Yuanhang looking over towards her side, her black eyes full of panic, but after a blink of the sky, only Mu Yunsheng’s serene and unperturbed face remained.
“Let’s go home.”
Okay, go home, get out of here.
