Li Yankai only prayed that Ji Wangyun wouldn't leave him, but now, he heard Ji Wangyun's confession. Everything seemed so unreal because the probability was so low, so low that he thought the hope was slim.
" Brother Wangyun," Li Yankai wanted to hug him tightly, but because he had just climbed a mountain, he could only silently push him away, "So, should we start dating?"
His bright, dark eyes were fixed on Ji Wangyun.
Faced with Li Yankai's straightforward approach, Ji Wangyun's stubbornness and resilience were almost completely thwarted, so what was there to wait for?
He suppressed the urge to curl his lips into a wide smile and said, "Okay, let's start today."
He tried to pull Li Yankai into his arms, but Li Yankai shyly pushed him away, smiling sheepishly, " Brother Wangyun, I just climbed a mountain, I'm all sweaty..."
Ji Wangyun only smelled a faint fragrance from the other person, with no trace of body odor. Although she felt wronged, she had no choice but to give up.
More importantly, he's in a relationship!
The two stood in the shade of a tree, sunlight filtering through the leaves and dappling their bodies, creating an atmosphere that was both tense and sweet.
From the moment they realized they liked each other to officially starting a relationship, it didn't take long, leaving Xie Zhuzhou received the news at home, completely dumbfounded.
To be honest, this is a bit like a dream.
After all, that's the second brother, not the third brother.
He would rather believe that his third brother had found a wife than believe that his second brother had actually found a beautiful and attractive girlfriend.
Not only was Xie Zhuzhou surprised, but even the teammates who couldn't give Ji Wangyun any advice last night felt that Ji Wangyun might be playing a trick on them.
How could such a perfectly mutual affection happen to Ji Wangyun? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Because Ji Wangyun's image was so deeply ingrained in their minds, their first reaction upon receiving the news was that it was April Fool's Day, and that this was just another prank among friends.
The next day
Ji Wangyun invited friends and family to dinner and officially announced their relationship.
Xie Zhuzhou finally witnessed what true pride was, and he had deeply understood it through Ji Wangyun.
It was supposed to be a dinner to celebrate his second brother and Li Yankai getting together, but he, his two older brothers, Little Yan, and his second brother's friends all felt like they were at a wedding banquet...
Why are there such big differences between people? Xie Zhuzhou thought about it and realized that he actually envied Li Yankai's personality—he was decisive and acted on his words.
Instead of going through a long period of deliberation like him, one should not make a decision without careful consideration. In short, whether one acts boldly or thinks carefully, loyalty and devotion in relationships are the most important things.
After Ji Wangyun and Li Yankai's relationship was made public, their friends could only pretend. Although they said they "didn't believe it," they were secretly "happy" for them. After all, Ji Wangyun, this "straight-as-an-arrow man," had finally found his happiness, which relieved everyone of a "worry."
Their real thought was, "Why is it that someone who seems to understand love the least has found a partner before them?"
This is simply unbelievable.
Even now, Ji Wangyun is putting on a convincing act, as if he weren't the same person who used to act like a wild monkey roaming the mountains and forests in front of his friends and family.
Seeing Ji Wangyun's gentle, composed, handsome, and polite demeanor in front of them, they had been holding back their laughter for a long time, but dared not laugh for fear of angering Ji Wangyun.
Xie Zhuzhou remained silent for a long time, refraining from embarrassing his second brother. But when his third brother turned his gaze, Xie Zhuzhou gritted his teeth slightly, almost unable to suppress his laughter.
Third Brother is truly cunning!
Seeing that his Zhouzhou was about to burst out laughing, Chu Yanzhang immediately and considerately saved the day by having Zhouzhou take him to the restroom, as it was his first time there and he didn't know the way.
Xie Zhuzhou felt that Little Yan, apart from being disobedient in bed, seemed to understand him like a mind reader at other times.
Mo Liang and Fu Liefeng, who remained on the field, were flushed with anger, especially when they looked at each other, they could hardly contain themselves.
It's too difficult.
Can't Ji Wangyun just be herself?!
Why did you come here to harm them!
Li Yankai had no idea why everyone in this group was so red-faced. What were they doing? He asked with concern, "Is the air conditioning not set low enough? How about I order you all some ice cream?"
Mo Liang and the other felt heartbroken seeing the innocent, cute, and kind -Ji Wangyun hearted Li Yankai. How could Ji Wangyun have found such a well-behaved child!
" Xiexie, but no need. We just tend to have higher body temperatures."
Ji Wangyun knew that the two people opposite him were simply suppressing their laughter, but no matter what, if they dared to laugh, he would make sure that everyone would never have peace for the rest of their lives.
He used his eyes to openly threaten everyone.
When three-quarters of the mealtime had passed, Xie Zhuzhou and Chu Yanzhang finally returned. Their lips were both a little red, leaving everyone speechless, especially the other two brothers, who felt they could no longer eat.
Everyone was single and doing just fine before, so why is everyone suddenly in a relationship?!
After dinner, the group went to the second event, and also invited Ji Wangyan and Ji Wangchen's friends to join them.
The group went to the Ji Family's bar for drinks, where there were also many musical instruments, including a piano, in the corner.
Li Yankai watched for a long time, Ji Wangyun recalled that she had also studied piano diligently for a period of time before.
He leaned close to Li Yankai's ear and whispered something.
Xie Zhuzhou watched as the newlywed couple suddenly got up and walked towards the triangular platform in the corner.
After Ji Wangyun sat down, his posture was upright. His fingertips swept across the piano keys, and the piece titled "Track in Time" flowed out like fragments of time. At the same time, Li Yankai's bow began to move in response to the music. The two slowly performed a perfect coordination, as if their souls had become one.
This was because Xie Zhuzhou had never met Ji Wangyun and Li Yankai.
Ji Wangyun's slender fingers danced across the piano keys, a sight to behold.
Li Yankai's cello playing was deep and melodious, intertwining with the piano to create a moving melody.
Xie Zhuzhou sat to the side, listening quietly, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He suddenly felt like it was the first day he had met his second brother.
After an unknown amount of time, the song ended, and applause erupted.
Ji Wangyun and Li Yankai exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with mutual admiration.
" Brother Wangyun, you're amazing."
Ji Wangyun's lips curved slightly, " Xiao Kai, you're not bad either."
Li Yankai scratched the back of his head sheepishly. Actually, he hadn't played the cello in a long time, and his hands were a bit rusty, but Brother Wangyun had been able to guide him all the way.
He turned and went back to his seat at the bar, only to find a group of people looking at Ji Wangyun as if he were a stranger.
Normally, no matter how many times you ask Ji Wangyun to come on stage and play a song, he absolutely refuses. Why is he willing now?!
Just because you're in a relationship, you're willing to play the piano?!
Ji Wangyun was completely unconcerned about being condemned by everyone, but when he returned to the sofa, he couldn't escape the wine that was meant to harm him.
Fortunately, Li Yankai had a good alcohol tolerance and even helped Ji Wangyun drink a few cups. But Ji Wangyun's face was flushed, making Li Yankai's heart skip a beat.
