Even meals were brought in by the housekeeper and taken away after they finished. So, for the entire day, the three of them hadn’t crossed paths once.
Finally…
The day before the wedding arrived.
Ye Xiaoxi called Jiang Yining and said, “Yining, I’m coming to stay at your place today. Tomorrow morning, you’ll have to do your makeup, wear your wedding gown, and you’ll definitely be very busy. With me by your side, 1 can help you.”
She wanted to do something for Yining.
She hadn’t asked before because Yining had remained silent, but today she couldn’t hold it in any longer.
Jiang Yining hesitated for a moment and replied, “Alright, come over.”
“Great!” Ye Xiaoxi was overjoyed!
She hung up the phone and rushed over immediately.
Jiang Yining, listening to the beeping sound on the phone, couldn’t help but curl her lips.
She was getting married, and the person who was genuinely happy for her, blessed her, and thought of her well-being was not her family but her friend.
It was ironic.
But it didn’t matter. She had long gotten used to it.
Jiang Yining pushed down the sadness in her heart, tidied up quickly, and stepped out of her room.
As she reached the stairs, she coincidentally bumped into Gu Zhanqing and Jiang Rou, who were coming from the opposite direction.
Jiang Yining pretended not to see them.
Jiang Rou called out to her in a low voice, “Yining, the wedding is tomorrow.
Are you really not considering coming with us?”
“I’ve already given you my answer. No matter how many times you ask, my answer remains the same.”
Jiang Yining said with a cold expression.
Gu Zhanqing said, “If you don’t listen to us, you’ll regret it.”
Jiang Yining looked at him mockingly and said, “Listening to you would make me even more regretful.”
With that, she no longer paid them any attention and continued down the stairs.
Gu Zhanqing muttered, “Stubborn.”
Seems like she inherited her mother’s stubbornness, not turning back until she hit a brick wall.
Jiang Rou sighed and said, “Uncle, Yining seems to really like Lu Zhi.”
Gu Zhanqing seemed to ignore her words.
He turned and left.
Jiang Yining sat in the living room and waited for a while.
Ye Xiaoxi rushed over and brought a lot of delicious food with her. “My grandfather gave me these, saying that brides rarely have a chance to eat on their wedding day. So, let me prepare some snacks for you. Tomorrow, I’ll bring them to you, and if you get hungry, I’ll give them to you. We can’t go to the wedding venue on an empty stomach, right?”
“Okay. You and Grandpa Yuan are really considerate.”
Jiang Yining felt a warm rush in her heart.
Ye Xiaoxi looked at her and said, “Lu Zhi is really lucky to marry a wife like you. Yining, if 1 were a man, I’d definitely try to steal you away.”
She thought to herself, “Yining is really too perfect!”
“Even as a girl, I’m almost smitten!”
“Ohhh…”
“Lu Zhi must have accumulated ten lifetimes of good fortune to meet someone like Yining!”
Jiang Yining gave her a glare. “Be normal.”
“Okay.”
Ye Xiaoxi suppressed her reluctance. Although she had always known that Yining was married, the thought of Yining officially marrying him tomorrow made her feel like her precious one was being taken by a pig. The only consolation was that the pig was a handsome and wealthy one! A perfect match for her lovely girl!
The two of them chatted in the living room for a long time…
Then, after dinner, they went back to their rooms. Ye Xiaoxi shared a bed with Jiang Yining. Jiang Yining asked her to take a shower first, and then she lay on the bed alone, checking her email.
And just at that moment, her phone made a notification sound, indicating a new message. Jiang Yining noticed that it was from Lu Zhi, so she opened it to read.
“Did you sleep?”
Jiang Yining typed a quick reply, “Not yet.”
“Can you talk on the phone?”
“Is there something you want?”
Jiang Yining asked.
On the other side, Lu Zhi looked at the responses on the screen, and the corners of his lips curled up with a hint of an indulgent smile.
Heartless little troublemaker.
Tomorrow was the day of the wedding, and he was having trouble sleeping.
But she seemed as calm as ever.
She really had a heart of steel.
Lu Zhi paused for a few seconds before typing another message.
“I want to chat with you.”
“Alright, go ahead and call then.”
She had just sent the message when the phone rang.
Jiang Yining answered and said softly, “Hello, Lu Zhi.”
“I’m here.”
His voice, low and magnetic, sent a strange tingling sensation through Jiang Yining, as if she had been electrified. She found her own reaction somewhat peculiar and remained silent for a while.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Zhi didn’t speak either.
Both of them maintained an inexplicable silence, listening only to each other’s quiet breathing.
After a while, Jiang Yining tentatively asked, “Lu Zhi, why aren’t you saying anything?”
“I’m not at home today. Did you miss me?”
“No,” Jiang Yining replied emotionlessly.
Actually, she did miss him a little, especially when she saw the annoying Gu Zhanqing and Jiang Rou. But she wasn’t about to admit that to him.
“But 1 miss you,” Lu Zhi said with a smile.
Jiang Yining was taken aback for a moment. “These past few days, you didn’t harass me, so you’re feeling uncomfortable?”
“…,” Lu Zhi was really close to being driven crazy by this unromantic beauty. Would it kill her to accept a sweet word or two?
After a moment of silence, Lu Zhi said, “I’m standing on the rooftop right now, looking at the stars. There are a lot of stars tonight. Go outside and take a look.”
Jiang Yining walked over to the window and looked up at the night sky. It was pitch black, and she couldn’t see any stars. She was about to accuse him of lying when she heard a series of swooshing sounds. Then, with a pop, countless beautiful fireworks bloomed in the night sky.
“Do you see it?” Lu Zhi asked in a clear voice through the phone.
“Fireworks, did you arrange this?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Yining stared at the sky and said, “I really like it.”
“As long as you like it, my good girl. Remember to enjoy the fireworks and get a good night’s sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, you’ll be able to see me.”
Lu Zhi’s voice, soft and tender, was filled with warmth and indulgence.
Listening to his words, Jiang Yining couldn’t help but feel a flutter in her heart.
At this moment, Lu Zhi made her feel like they were really getting married, not just going through a fake wedding to deceive others..
