Chapter 97: “Love Rivals” Meet
“Oh,” Lu Ziyi responded indifferently, indicating he understood.
Ye Chuxiao pursed her lips, a slight warmth spreading across her cheeks; she was the one feeling embarrassed.
She had merely stated a fact; she genuinely felt Senior Student Ziyi was more handsome, and she had no intention of coveting Senior Student Ziyi’s good looks!
Senior Student Ziyi didn’t misunderstand, did he? Ye Chuxiao’s heart fluttered with anxiety as she secretly glanced at Lu Ziyi, completely forgetting about Bai Yiming.
Lu Ziyi put on an air of inscrutable mystery. Ye Chuxiao couldn’t fathom him, so she could only continue to gaze at him.
Lin Houchun chuckled, “Hehehe,” Xiaoxiao was too awesome. The groom was making his entrance, and our Ziyi’s presence couldn’t be outdone. Xiaoxiao should be like this, “My eyes are only on you, not him,” looking at Ziyi with eyes full of “infatuation and adoration”!
Zhao Congrui, who had lent a hand, cast a look of disdain at Lu Ziyi.
Lu Ziyi, keep pretending. I asked Xiaoxiao that question so loudly just now, and you clearly heard it, yet you deliberately asked again, making Xiaoxiao confirm in person that you are *even more* handsome! You’re just trying to trick the simple Xiaoxiao; you can’t fool your brother!
Lu Ziyi paid no mind to others’ thoughts. The corners of his thin, soft lips curved into a faint smile. It felt so good to have Xiaoxiao only looking at him!
After Bai Yiming paid his respects to the Xiao Family elders, he could go to Xiao Yunfei’s boudoir to pick up the bride.
Ye Chuxiao was somewhat familiar with the lively scene of the wedding procession. It was said that the bride’s bridesmaids could pose challenges for the groom, and he would only be allowed to enter and pick up the bride after passing them.
Ye Chuxiao was very curious about the wedding procession, but she didn’t join the other young people rushing to watch. Instead, she remained by the wall of the main hall, unmoving.
Ye Chuxiao still felt great sympathy for Lu Ziyi, always considering him.
To think of the girl he loved being taken away by another man, and he could only watch helplessly. How cruel the scene was!
Lu Ziyi looked at Ye Chuxiao with confusion. She had come to town and was curious about everything, asking him questions like a thousand whys. Why was she suddenly not interested in the most crucial part, the wedding procession?
“Xiaoxiao,” Lu Ziyi asked softly, “Aren’t you going to watch the wedding procession?”
I really want to go, Senior Student Ziyi! Ye Chuxiao gazed at Lu Ziyi pleadingly, but I feel sorry for you!
“Let’s not go,” Ye Chuxiao said casually, “It’s too crowded.”
“It’s okay, I’ll hold your hand, and no one will be able to push you.”
Lu Ziyi took Ye Chuxiao’s hand and led her out of the main hall.
Eager for some excitement, Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun followed closely.
Ye Chuxiao hesitated. Senior Student Ziyi, are you really sure you want to watch Miss Yunfei being picked up by the groom?
Lu Ziyi showed no hesitation.
Alright, Ye Chuxiao decided to go along with him. Some truths were cruel, but facing them was for the best. Although it was painful, it would be easier to let go.
Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao walked with everyone towards the stairs. Someone noticed Lu Ziyi’s arrival and exclaimed, “Ziyi is here!”
Lu Ziyi’s name seemed particularly sensitive today. The shout of “Ziyi is here!” quickly spread upwards. As everyone on the stairs turned to look, they instinctively parted to make way.
The groom, Bai Yiming, who had already reached the top of the stairs, turned to look down. His gaze met Lu Ziyi’s as he looked up!
