Tsk, Li Ke, you're not as amazing as you made yourself out to be.
"Here, here! I'm over here!"
A blue-haired girl in a wedding dress, her hands holding up the hem of her skirt, her face covered in cake crumbs, jumped up in the crowd and spoke.
She had only jumped up a little when her body floated up and slowly flew towards the steps where Silco was.
Wherever she flew, everyone looked up at the sky. Of course, it was impossible to see any wardrobe malfunction, because Janna thoughtfully used the wind to swirl the hem of her long skirt, forming a shape similar to a flower bud, so that the girl could even cover her feet under the skirt.
Silco looked up and saw her flying towards him. She was wearing a white wedding dress, and her blue hair was beautifully styled in a bun. Seeing her like this, Silco stood there, stunned.
A bittersweet feeling and a sense of accomplishment welled up in the old father's heart. At this moment, Silco felt both sad and gratified.
That girl he initially thought was a burden, someone who was only somewhat similar to him, also an abandoned girl, has grown up so much now.
Yes, Jinx is almost twenty; she's really not a little girl anymore.
Having come to terms with this fact, Silco suddenly felt like crying. He wondered if Jinx would still play pranks on him after she got married, if she would still draw graffiti on his water cup, if she would still carve her mark on his place. Would Jinx mature because of this? If so...
Silco really wanted to cry.
But just as he was lost in grief and his thoughts were drifting, Jinx's voice rang in his ears.
Then, a pair of hands wrapped around his arm.
"Let's go, Silco."
Turning his head, Silco saw Jinx's smiling face. Her face was covered with beautiful light makeup, revealing Jinx's signature smooth and full forehead. A necklace adorned her snow-white neck, and a beautiful sapphire sparkled on her slightly undulating chest, making her look quite lovely.
On her face, you can no longer see the sickly paleness, and the bluish veins that used to be dense around her eyes have disappeared, leaving only one or two beautiful moles.
Silco was no longer sad. He took a deep breath, straightened up, and looked solemnly ahead. This was the most important moment in his father's life, and he absolutely could not let things go wrong at this time.
Therefore, Silco clenched his right fist, which Jinx was holding, and pounded it into his lower abdomen with almost smashing force before taking a step to lead Jinx up the steps.
But the next moment, Jinx's words broke Silco's defenses.
Then they heard Xiao Jin, the wedding attendant, chattering excitedly, "Let's hurry and find Li Ke!"
"."
The next moment, everyone who heard that sentence burst out laughing.
Most of those who are here in Twin Cities today to attend this wedding are people who have experienced big events; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are worldly-wise and knowledgeable.
But honestly, they've seen women who want to get married, but they've never seen anyone so desperate to get married.
The groom, dressed in a black suit, was smiling and looking down from the stage, his hands on his hips, with his groomsmen behind him.
The groomsmen had different skin colors and even different races, but a group of well-built men in the same white uniforms standing together with their chests out certainly looked very handsome.
The groom wasn't in a hurry to pick up the bride; instead, the bride was impatient and urged her father to take her there quickly.
Can an elbow really bend that sharply?
With a black line appearing on her forehead, Silco walked up the steps, thinking to herself—maybe Jinx should just mature a bit?
Now that you're married, you should at least be a bit more mature, right?
Step by step, his frustration slowly disappeared, and Silco gradually got into the zone.
Seraphine's voice echoed throughout the two cities, and could even be heard in neighboring cities beyond them.
Sunshine, gentleness, sweetness, and a touch of excitement.
"Finally, we will witness Congressman Li Ke marrying his bride."
Leading Jinx up the steps, Silco suddenly stopped at the last step. He then released his right hand, gently grasped Jinx's hand, and looked up at Li Ke.
Under the Hextech sound system, everyone heard Silco's voice.
"Li Ke, I'm entrusting Jinx to you."
Silco stood still, gently lifting Jinx's hand. Li Ke also walked to the edge, took the small, fair hand from Silco, and looked at Silco earnestly. Li Ke said, "I will protect Jinx."
"I believe you." Silco nodded, then turned and walked away alone without looking at Jinx again.
He led Jinx for ninety-nine steps, and for the final step, Li Ke would lead Jinx.
Looking at Jinx standing on the last step, Li Ke thought for a moment, then raised Li Ke finger upwards, looked at Jinx who was staring at him, and said with a smile, "Where did you just go?"
"I'm going to eat something. I haven't had a proper meal in days," Jinx said matter-of-factly. She blinked and realized that her voice and Li Ke's voice weren't being heard by everyone.
Rather, it was something only the two of them could hear.
Even more interestingly, the faces of Li Ke and Jinx were reflected on the huge glass screen at the back of the stage, their mouths opening and closing, clearly indicating that they were having a conversation.
However, since no specific sounds could be heard, people could only guess what the two people were saying from their lip movements.
Jinx complained to Li Ke, muttering with dissatisfaction, "Caitlyn has so many rules. First, she wants me to sit properly, stand properly, and now she even wants to control how fast I eat."
Standing beside Vi in the crowd, Caitlyn, dressed in the aristocratic attire of the Giramann Family and looking dashing, had a strange expression on her face. As a police officer, and one who was in charge of solving cases, Caitlyn had naturally taught herself lip reading.
Although she didn't spend much time learning, she certainly wouldn't misread her own name.
Therefore, Caitlyn can imagine what Jinx is doing right now.
This is a complaint against Li Ke, a complaint against me.
"I just find it strange, Li Ke. You said I'm just getting married, not doing anything special, so why are they all making such a big fuss? I'm not trying to become an aristocrat! Why would I need to learn those things?"
"That is indeed their problem," Li Ke said with a smile, still holding Jinx's hand.
The fitted clothes accentuated Li Ke's physique perfectly. He had the kind of build that looked slim in clothes but muscular when undressed, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and excellent head-to-body ratio.
Jinx is the same; she has long, slender arms and legs, and snow-white skin. Even her white wedding dress couldn't hide her Jinx complexion.
"That's why I sneaked out to eat when Wei wasn't looking. I just don't understand why there are so many rules about eating. Don't you feel uncomfortable? No matter how delicious the food is, I can't eat it if I'm not happy."
"We don't care about these things in our family. You and Isha can eat however you like."
"Hmm, I want to sit in your lap and have you feed me," Jinx said with a grin after thinking for a moment.
Li Ke said gently, "Okay."
Even now, standing before Jinx and holding Jinx hand, Li Ke still feels like it's all a dream.
It took Li Ke a few weeks to go from being afraid of Jinx to Jinx, but it took Li Ke almost a year to go from liking Jinx to deciding to be with Jinx.
And now, Li Ke is going to marry her.
"Then I'm going to eat like that when I get back! I want to eat greasy food. That old hag Kiramman says that eating too much greasy food will make you fat, and that women need to maintain a good figure, but I won't gain weight! I exercise every day, okay?"
Below the stage, at the very front of the crowd, at one of the tables, sat Piltover's councilors. Hoskall looked up at the screen, read lips, and then burst into laughter.
Hearing Hoskall's laughter, Kiramman found it grating and felt a touch of resentment.
She meant well, okay?
"That won't do. Tomorrow is fine, but not today," Li Ke said, shaking his head after hearing Jinx's request.
"Why not today?" Jinx asked curiously.
"Because there's more to do today," Li Ke said somewhat seriously.
Jinx was taken aback when she heard this, then she understood what was going on. She glanced down at Li Ke's crotch, and then she became excited.
Those below were unaware of what had happened, but the Lord of Zaun was right; he indeed had many things to do today.
For example, toasting or something?
"Let's hurry up and get done. All this formality is optional!" Before Li Ke could react, Jinx lifted one corner of her skirt and walked up the last step.
Her hand gesture changed from holding Li Ke's hand to tightly hugging his arm.
Auntie Marna, standing in the middle of the stage, blinked, unsure of what to say.
At this point, shouldn't the bride and groom walk hand in hand to her, and she act as the emcee, asking questions before any intimate interaction takes place?
But Jinx just bypassed her!
However, Auntie Marna wasn't a traditionalist. She immediately launched into a long speech, mostly recounting how much hardship she had witnessed and how many things she had gone through, how lovers finally got married, and wishing the newlyweds a happy and blissful marriage.
And what about Jayce?
He was looking at Yi and Jax in the corner. They were also dressed as groomsmen, but it seemed they only made a brief appearance at the last minute. Moreover, the limelight was on Li Ke and Jinx; the audience didn't even notice Jax and Yi, even though Jax was practically bursting out of his white suit.
Wait, damn it!
I only made a brief appearance, didn't I?
Looking back on today, it seems like Jayce was just used as a tool?
Next came the toasting ceremony, but neither did Li Ke Jinx enjoy drinking.
When she was a minor, Li Ke wouldn't let her drink alcohol, but she insisted on drinking it, which was really just out of curiosity. After trying it once or twice and finding that alcohol really wasn't as good as juice, Jinx stopped touching alcohol altogether.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Li Ke chose to use fruit juice instead of alcohol. Silco and Vander had no objections to this, and since they had no objections, it was even less likely that others would have any.
The luncheon lasted until after 3 p. m., after which Silco, Vander, and Jayce went to Piltover to hold a second celebration Piltover.
Many people followed suit, ready to join in the fun and see it through to the end.
After all, if Zaun's food and drinks are so delicious, wouldn't Piltover, known for its luxury and wealth in Runeterra, be even more extravagant?
Therefore, whether their bellies were bulging or they were completely drunk, the second party in Piltover had just as many attendees as the one in Zaun.
After all, the number of people who can sit in Black Alley is always limited, but Piltover doesn't have to worry about that. The streets, parks, and shopping districts have long been set up with all kinds of free stalls, providing food and drinks.
Li Ke, accompanied by several groomsmen and bridesmaids, led Jinx into the depths of the Black Alley.
Zeri, dressed in a bridesmaid dress, had her green, turtle-like hair braided into pigtails instead of her usual topknot. Her face was flushed as she followed behind Jinx, helping Jinx lift up her tulle skirt.
Ekko followed behind, his head bowed calmly, lost in thought.
Lux was nowhere to be seen. Ever since she appeared on stage, saw Fiora, and noticed Fiora's ashen face, Lux had vanished by the time she left the stage.
Isha, dressed in a little floral dress, followed everyone, laughing carefree. But when they arrived at her doorstep, little Isha's smile vanished.
Just as she was happily about to go home with her older siblings, a hand suddenly grabbed her little arm.
"Eeya?"
Isha looked at Vi, who was pulling her, puzzled.
Wei said with a serious expression, "Sleep with me tonight."
Little Isha: "?"
"Don't put on that pitiful dog face, it won't work. Tonight you have to sleep with me, or you'll sleep with someone else. In short, you're not going home tonight," Wei said.
Isha: "???"
Why? Why can't I go home suddenly?
Night fell quickly. Yi and Jax returned to New Town to rest, while Axel and the others chose to go to Piltover for a second battle, joining the excitement in the upper town after finishing the excitement in the lower town.
At nine o'clock at night, at Li Ke's house, having taken off his suit and changed into loose clothing, Li Ke looked at Jinx, who had also taken a shower and changed her clothes.
Little Jin, her face flushed and steaming, sat obediently on the edge of the bed, her hands resting on her fair thighs peeking out from under her pajama bottoms. She stared at Li Ke with her beautiful Big Eyes.
His eyes were filled with excitement.
"Li Ke, this time I can do more than just watch and play, right? I can use it now, right? It's legal!"
Li Ke remained silent, only continuing to take off his clothes.
Then, Li Ke turned off the light.
"!"
"Li Ke, why did you turn off the light! If you turn off the light, we won't be able to see anything!"
"???"
No, I turned off the lights to be considerate of your feelings, okay?
Jinx's words left Li Ke's men completely bewildered.
"Don't grab too hard, let me do it." Then, before silencing Jinx, Li Ke groaned and whispered.
The moment it was finished, large tears splashed onto Li Ke's elbow. Li Ke instinctively reached out to touch her cheek, gently stroking her face, and stopped what he was doing.
Then, she unconsciously opened her mouth, which earned Li Ke a black line from his forehead.
Is it over?
That's it?
The voice was pitiful and miserable, but the words spoken were anything but pitiful; on the contrary, they seemed to carry a hint of provocation to Li Ke.
"Tsk, Li Ke, you're not as amazing as you claim."
"That's all over, this is just the beginning."
A man's virility must not be insulted!
Li Ke immediately retaliated, only to be met with sharp nails tearing at his back, and the truly miserable expression and sounds of the woman beneath him.
