∮ 9th Movement: The Wedding of the Century (5)

Putting on the gorgeous wedding dress, I silently looked at myself in the mirror, and understood for the first time that not every princess wearing stars and moons can hold the prince in her heart and step into the legendary white wedding dress road......

Today is my engagement day with Min Zhiyi......

Letting the makeup artist excitedly smear my face, my heart felt as if I had walked into an endless desert.

In the city's most luxurious church in Saint Laurent, soon, a sensational wedding will be staged half the world, a news that will determine the trend of securities, and a hypocritical sale will be staged.

Inside and outside the church of Yves Saint Laurent, there is a celebratory atmosphere. Flowers and balls of color are flying, and the wedding feast after the engagement ceremony is set up in the open-air garden outside the church. As you can imagine, at night, this place will be full of lights and dances.

I can't imagine that in this cold winter of thousands of miles, I actually stepped on the green grass, dressed in red petals, and enchanted overlooking the white lonely city...... Indeed, the strong contrast between the spring in the church and the harsh winter outside the church makes people wonder if they have strayed into a fairyland...... Or perhaps, it is because every couple who swears before Jesus is the most faithful blessing of the unforgettable moments in their lives, so it is surrounded by a land of hope that all things can grow and flourish......

But what about me? What kind of mood do I have to face my life's vows? contradictions, entanglements, unwillingness, helplessness, and mixed feelings in my heart...... I thought I was going to cry today...... However, looking at my glamorous and moving self in the mirror, I found that the tears had long since dried up...... I couldn't cry anymore, like a puppet that had only been drained of my soul, numb, empty......

"Okay, Miss Ling!!The priest is ready!" came the voice of the bridesmaid Lu Xiaoying outside the dressing room door......

Lu Xiaoying, the friend I made when I first came to this city, is a very cute little ball, because I can't contact Zhiwei repeatedly, I can only ask Xiaoying to be my bridesmaid.

"Well, all right!" I opened the door, and without hesitation, I faced the promise that I could not even fulfill to deceive myself......

"Haha! Panxing hasn't contacted me for so many years since he returned to France, I thought you had forgotten me! I didn't expect you to give me such a big surprise as soon as you came back!"

Actually, it's not that I don't want to contact her lovely good friend, it's just that I'm afraid of ...... I'm afraid of coming into contact with that shocking past......

"How could I forget? Don't you see that I thought of you as soon as I came back?" Although I felt guilty, I still chose to open my mouth perfunctory, because I didn't want to explain the reason for the entanglement.

"Oh yes!haha, hurry up! I can't wait to see the groom's handsome appearance, I've been busy since the morning, and I haven't even seen the groom's shadow!" Holding my hand, Xiao Ying quickly shuttled through the shade of the trees, and soon, the door of the church appeared in front of my eyes.

Typical Gothic architecture, with soaring spires, yellowed and warm brickwork, a small bell tower inserted in the middle, harmonious symmetry on the left and right sides, and a huge milky white Romanesque surface inlaid on the top of the bell tower. The reliefs on the walls render solemnity, and I can't help but be fascinated by such a beautiful and holy church......

If, be able to ...... with him

No, Ling Panxing! Stop your useless imagination!

"Let's go!" Xiao Ying pulled me into the church.

At the entrance of the church, Min Zhiyi was dressed in a pure white suit, lining his tall figure with a handsome look.

"Wow!Brother Zhiyi, you are so handsome today!haha...... It's worthy of the treasure of our Liboti Academy!" As soon as Xiao Ying entered the door, she swooped down on a white figure, and said those flattering words crookedly...... Merely...... Moving his gaze...... I suddenly felt dizzy in my head...... Because, because, Xiao Ying actually pounced on Susukino Junsu and said this......

Susukino Junsu is wearing a white slim tuxedo, and the bad and evil temperament on his body is completely presented in the air, and the waves emit layers of light in the refraction of the sun, and the whole person is like a layer of gold edges, the beauty is incredible, as if all the wonderful things in this world will be eclipsed as long as they touch his light. It's just that the eyes as bright as diamonds are blurred for some reason, and they look at Xiaoying blankly......

With every gesture, I could feel the touching and exciting beauty coming from him! His hands were clenched into fists, and his nails were deeply embedded in his palms...... Ling Panxing, look away! You must know that your protagonist today is not him!

With all the strength of my body, I moved my eyes to Min Zhiyi again, only to see him staring at me with a gloomy face.

Ah! It's over, why am I so careless! Directly told Xiaoying that the object of engagement was Min Zhiyi, but he didn't explain that Min Zhiyi was Yi Chunyi!

Looking around, everyone was looking embarrassed, and I almost wanted to dig a hole and bury myself!

"Xiao Ying, today, it is he who is married to me......" Standing next to Min Zhiyi, I grabbed his arm with one hand, and pretended to be calm and said to Xiao Ying.

"Ahh......h Didn't you say that you were going to marry Zhiyi? How could it be, ...... with Brother Chun Su?" Xiao Ying kept shaking her head and going around between Min Zhiyi and Susukino Chun Su, looking completely incomprehensible.

"Uh...... Hehe, this one, it's just a mistake......" I smiled wryly.

"The name is wrong, isn't it, Panxing, are you kidding me? The name is wrong? I think you are a mistake, right? You are Brother Zhiyi's girlfriend! Of course you should marry Brother Zhiyi!"

Although I haven't seen each other for three years, Xiao Ying is still the same as before...... What should I do, feeling the hot eyes of Susukino Junsu, I decided that I must cut off all his hopes! So, I sank my heart and opened my mouth to say, "Hehe...... I'm empathetic, Sakura. ”

So, the audience was stunned...... The bride's ex-lover actually came to be the best man! Simply, it was ridiculous! However, even if everyone had such an idea, no one dared to speak out, after all, one was the godson of the old man Yi, and the other was the president of the Genesis saint William.

"Can the wedding begin?" At some point, the priest who had been standing under the cross had stepped down and stood in front of me.

"En!" Min Zhiyi stood on my left side with a heavy heart, silent. So, I watched as the priest answered firmly.

Xiao Ying looked at me strangely, then at Susukino Junxu, and finally shut up obediently.

The wedding march reverberated quietly in the huge church. The pure white walls reflect the colorful glass, and the sunlight shines through the glass to the holy church, and if you look closely, the light is scattered and dusty. The huge spotlights and those light box tubes scattered around the whole church illuminate the whole church with gold and brilliance...... Following the rhythm of the music, I took Min Zhiyi in my arms, step by step, to approach the dark brown cross in front of the church, the cross seemed to be covered with a dazzling halo under the refraction of the light, like the holy light of God's blessing, shining with the holy light of angels......

It seemed like a century had passed, and finally, the footsteps had to stop......

The priest, dressed in black, stood in front of me and Min Zhiyi, opened his Bible, and began to speak, but for some reason, my feet suddenly went weak, and an inexplicable sense of fear grew in my heart...... Behind me, there are obvious hot eyes looking at me, I know, it's Susukino Junsu, he likes me, right? Watching me marry someone else, will it hurt? hehe...... If it hurts, how can you be willing to do such cruel things to me? How can you be willing to deceive me again and again?

"Mr. Min Zhiyi, are you willing to stay with Miss Ling Panxing for the rest of your life, whether it is illness or health, poverty or wealth, and will you be with Miss Ling Panxing for the rest of your life?"

"I'm willing to ......"

"Miss Ling Panxing, are you willing to stay with Mr. Min Zhiyi for the rest of your life, whether it is illness or health, whether it is poverty or wealth, and stay with Mr. Min Zhiyi for the rest of your life?

“……”

"Miss Ling Panxing?"

"Panxing! Panxing!"

"Huh?" I was completely immersed in my own thoughts, and I was finally woken up by Xiao Ying on the side.

"The priest asks you again!"

“……”

"Why are you stunned? That's the answer I'm willing to answer!" Wake up the dreamer, I'm in church now, what am I thinking!

Gently shaking my head, I made up my mind, ready to say the most disobedient words of my life.

"Miss Ling Panxing, I want you to know that marriage is given by God! It is sacred! God has made you live in the world and meet the love of your life, you should be gentle and dignified, to obey this person, to love him, and to help him! And this person will repay you with the same feelings! Your love should be holy and without any benefit. I hope you understand!" the priest asked, as if he had seen something, and looked at me earnestly.

"I understand!" I replied categorically, as if to finally strengthen my faith.

"So, I want you to make a promise before God and all men, will you?"

“…… I do!" I forced myself to say, bowing my head.

"Okay, Miss Ling Panxing, are you willing to stay with Mr. Min Zhiyi for the rest of your life, whether it is illness or health, whether it is poverty or wealth, and you are willing to recognize him as your husband for life?"

"......" was silent for three seconds, and I could not say the three words that had reached my throat.

Ling Panxing! Come on! Speak up! Say it, and you can embark on the road of revenge as soon as possible!

Ling Panxing: Do you really want to ruin your lifelong happiness like this? Don't deceive yourself! You don't love him, you don't love him! Don't love him! Don't love him!

Ling Panxing! Don't be stupid! There is no real fairy tale in this world! There is no prince! Fairy tales are all lies! Don't look forward to anything more!

"I do!" I raised my head, and I used all the courage of my life to squeeze out a smile, and the voice resounded through the earth...... It's just that the tears that poured out of my eyes like a flood have already betrayed me......

Many years later, there are still people who remember the girl who said "I do" with tears in front of the cross and a wry smile, should they praise her for being brave, or should they call her stupid?
