Chapter 713: Chapter 716: The Wedding Scene Chapter 713: Chapter 716: The Wedding Scene “Wow, Xiao Han and Li Dapang are here.”
“Is this… Are they here to steal the bride?”
Everyone beca excited, and the crowd was buzzing with discussion.
Xiao Han’s sudden arrival caught everyone off guard. Everyone had received the news that Xiao Han would not co today, yet reality was quite the opposite. Not only did Xiao Han co, but he also brought Li Dapang with him.
When Liu Jini saw Xiao Han had co, she hurried over and said, “Xiao Han, you finally ca?”
“Teacher Liu, long ti no see,” Xiao Han said with a grin, looking at Liu Jini.
“Yes, it has been a long ti,” Liu Jini seed sowhat excited.
Xiao Han’s Hann Training Class had brought a great deal of honor to Linjiang, and likewise, to Linjiang No.1 Middle School. Liu Jini, who ca to see Xiao Han this ti, was also on a mission from Li Hengzhong. She wanted to express her gratitude to Xiao Han.
“Teacher Liu, how have you been?” Xiao Han asked.
“Good, good!” Liu Jini nodded, then said, “Thanks to your blessing. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
It’s no wonder Liu Jini was so happy. Her status today, her position as the grade director, being recognized as a national outstanding teacher, and making it to the top ten teachers nationwide, were all thanks to Xiao Han’s achievents. If it hadn’t been for Xiao Han’s perfect score in the college entrance examination, Liu Jini would not have attained such high honors.
Nowadays, wherever Liu Jini went, she was highly esteed by parents.
Everyone knew that Liu Jini had tutored a student who achieved a perfect score in the college entrance exam. Such honor was incredibly enticing. Everyone wanted to cram their child into Liu Jini’s class. Unfortunately, there was only one Liu Jini, and moreover, her class could only fit forty-five students, as strictly regulated.
A smile curled at the corners of Liu Jini’s mouth.
“That’s good to hear,” Xiao Han nodded.
Watching his proposal being disrupted, Jiang Xiaoliang was bursting with anger.
“The lights, what’s going on?” Jiang Xiaoliang roared hoarsely.
“Coming, coming!” The lighting technician quickly focused the lights on Jiang Xiaoliang and Chen Zihan.
The crowd then refocused on Jiang Xiaoliang’s marriage proposal.
Jiang Xiaoliang kneeled down on one knee again and said affectionately, “Zi Han, marry .”
The silence was deafening at the scene, everyone was exceptionally quiet, their curious eyes fixed on Chen Zihan, seemingly anticipating her to say “I do.” As soon as she spoke, the place would erupt into a fervent round of applause. Everyone’s hearts were in their throats, eagerly awaiting to burst into applause and cheer wildly.
Chen Zihan remained silent.
To agree to marry a man she did not love in front of Xiao Han was torturous.
Chen Zihan looked up at Xiao Han, not far away. Although the lights were on her, she could still clearly see Xiao Han on the periphery, standing beside Liu Jini, looking at her with a cold expression.
When she saw Xiao Han’s indifferent face, she felt a chill in her heart.
“If you confess to within ten seconds, I’ll reject Jiang Xiaoliang’s proposal! I’ll throw caution to the wind and leave with you, even if it ans going to the ends of the earth, even if it ans a life of poverty. I will not fear!”
Suddenly, an intense thought arose in Chen Zihan’s mind.
At that mont, she forgot about her responsibilities, her family, her father who had lost the ability to work, her mother who had just co out of surgery. She forgot everything. In her heart, there was only one person, and that was Xiao Han.
Her gaze was unwavering as she looked at Xiao Han.
“Just take one step towards , and let take the remaining ninety-nine!”
Chen Zihan scread in her heart. How she wished Xiao Han would take that step toward her. But minutes passed as she waited, moving from hope to disappointnt, from disappointnt to despair, from despair to the lights going out.
“Xiao Han, are you really so disappointed in , so desperate?”
Chen Zihan felt incredibly sad within, as if all her love had turned into bubbles. Her eyes, filled with grievance, desperation, and hopelessness, were trained on Xiao Han.
“If you don’t co now, I will agree to marry him.”
A crazy idea popped up in Chen Zihan’s mind.
If Xiao Han didn’t step forward, she would accept Jiang Xiaoliang’s proposal. She wanted to see how Xiao Han would react. Maybe he would be disappointed, maybe he would be sad…
The scene was terrifyingly silent.
Jiang Xiaoliang was still kneeling with the engagent ring in hand, looking up at Chen Zihan. However, Chen Zihan’s attention was not on him but on Xiao Han.
Jiang Xiaoliang was no fool; he clearly knew that Chen Zihan’s attention was focused on Xiao Han. So, Jiang Xiaoliang was very frustrated. He should not have allowed Xiao Han to co in—his proposal was nearly ruined by this kid. If it hadn’t been for him, Chen Zihan would have already agreed to marry him.
“Zi Han!” Jiang Xiaoliang called out.
Chen Zihan still did not respond. Her beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Han; how she wished, how she yearned for Xiao Han to take a step toward her. But after waiting for what felt like an eternity, transitioning from anticipation to despair, and from despair to darkness…
“Okay!” Chen Zihan said blankly, “I agree, I’ll marry you!”
Roar, roar, roar…
The venue erupted with applause, cheers, and shouts… All the sounds blended together.
Jiang Xiaoliang let out a sigh of relief. There were no feelings of happiness or excitent. He just exhaled a heavy, turbid breath. He had even been prepared for the worst, wondering what he would do if Chen Zihan rejected him, and how he would save face.
But fortunately, Chen Zihan had agreed to him, so he managed to get through this ordeal.
Jiang Xiaoliang put the engagent ring on Chen Zihan’s finger and then gently held her, saying, “Zihan, you are finally mine. Thank heavens, thank you for coming into my life, and please never leave again.”
Chen Zihan closed her eyes, letting her tears flow unchecked. She remained silent.
The cheers at the scene never stopped.
Pop…
Suddenly, soone shook a bottle of champagne and then popped it open forcefully.
The champagne sprayed out. The scene erupted into cheers.
“Congratulations to Jiang Xiaoliang for winning the beauty’s heart.”
“Congratulations, congratulations!”
The crowd cheered on.
Xiao Han remained indifferent, not because he didn’t want to react, but because Chen Zihan’s words had deeply wounded him. He had co here today because he heard that Jiang Xiaoliang was going to propose to Chen Zihan. Therefore, he ca to see the situation for himself.
Of course, he also held onto the last glimr of hope.
Actually, when Jiang Xiaoliang went down on one knee to propose, Xiao Han felt as if ten thousand imaginary horses were rampaging through his heart.
“If you refuse him and agree to go with , I am willing to be enemies with the entire world for you.”
While Chen Zihan looked at him, a firm voice in Xiao Han’s heart spoke.
However, Chen Zihan didn’t seem to speak up or walk towards him.
Right when Jiang Xiaoliang said ‘marry ’.
“No, don’t agree to him, co with . I am willing to give up everything for you, even my life!”
However, after Chen Zihan hesitated for a mont, she chose to accept Jiang Xiaoliang’s proposal.
Pain!
At that mont, sharp stabbing pains fiercely pierced Xiao Han’s heart, as if a sharp knife had thrust into his chest. In that instant, he felt as though he was almost going mad, on the verge of breaking down.
Blood pressure skyrocketing…
Breathing growing ragged…
Eyes fierce and wild…
At this ti, Li Dapang patted Xiao Han on the shoulder and said, “Since she has chosen her own path, let her go. Isn’t letting go also a form of happiness?”
Li Dapang’s words helped Xiao Han imdiately release the pressure and demonic energy bottled up inside his heart.
Maybe Li Dapang was right, isn’t letting go also a form of happiness?
“I let go of Yang Xiaoyan, and now I’m still doing very well,” said Li Dapang with a smile. “When breaking up, everyone thinks they might never get over it, but what’s the reality? In this world, no one can’t get over soone else, and nobody is indispensable. It’s all just unrequited love. When it’s ti for two people to break up, no one can stop it, right?”
Liu Jini seed to understand the situation now.
“Xiao Han, don’t be sad,” Liu Jini looked at Xiao Han and said. “Study hard, work on your business. Compared to Jiang Xiaoliang, I have more faith in you. If I were Chen Zihan, I would definitely choose you over Jiang Xiaoliang!”
Xiao Han looked up at Liu Jini and said, “Teacher Liu, thank you for comforting !”
“I’m not just comforting you,” Liu Jini said with a smile. “I’m speaking the truth. You are the real potential stock. If you can change your fate in the college entrance examination within a year, how could you not rewrite your destiny in ten years?”
Boom…
Liu Jini’s words were like a clap of thunder, awakening Xiao Han.
Yes, he was better than Jiang Xiaoliang; there was no doubt about that. To rewrite his fate in ten years, to defy the heavens and change his life. What a challenging endeavor?
“Teacher Liu, thank you,” Xiao Han bowed deeply to Liu Jini.
Then he turned and left.
No one stopped him, and no one knew.
Everyone was imrsed in the cheers of the mont, their shouts indulgent, unrestrained.
Jiang Xiaoliang held Chen Zihan, and the two beca the center of attention, the focal point of everyone there. Everyone seed ecstatic, exhilarated, and emotional. It was as if this wasn’t a proposal scene, but a wedding scene.
The lights flickered in the banquet hall on the top floor. Everyone was relaxing, venting the repression inside.
The lighting technician saw Xiao Han and Li Dapang leaving, so he quickly followed them out.
“Big Fatty, Big Fatty, pay up!” called the lighting technician, hurrying over.
“Here,” Li Dapang pulled out a thousand yuan from his pocket, handed it to him, and said, “Thanks for your help today.”
