Chapter 728: 714, The Lucky One Who Received the Bouquet (1)_1 Chapter 728: 714, The Lucky One Who Received the Bouquet (1)_1 âYou can discuss the matter over the phone, thereâs no need to meet in person,â Jian Qing said indifferently, her deep clear eyes as calm as water.
âJian Qing, is it really so hard for you to see me?â On the other end of the line, hearing Jian Qingâs words, Chu Yihenâs face fell, his eyes losing their glimmer.
He clearly never hurt her, so why did she detest him so much? Was it because of Ruohanâs issue, which she also blamed him for?
âFive minutes, youâve already wasted one minute. If thereâs nothing else, Iâll hang up,â Jian Qing said, her voice clear and cold.
Chu Yihen gripped his phone tightly, his veins bulging. âJian Qing, name your condition, as long as youâre willing to spare Ruohan.â
He knew that he couldnât hide the fact that he had smuggled Ruohan out of the Mental Hospital from Jian Qing for long. He hadnât expected that as soon as Ruohan landed, his informant told him they had been trailed. He didnât have to think twice to know that this was Jian Qingâs warning to him.
Since Ruohan had been sent abroad, it was his duty to ensure her safety. The only way was to meet with Jian Qing face-to-face to clear things up and request for her to spare Ruohan.
âHmph!â
Jian Qing curled her lips and sneered coldly.
âMr. Chu, what are you talking about? The mental hospital caught on fire, didnât Chu Ruohan die in there?â
Chu Yihenâs eyes chilled. âJian Qing, letâs talk openly. What payment would you require to spare Ruohan?â
âNever show up before me again for the rest of your life! I donât care if sheâs really mad or pretending, if she dares harbor any malicious intent, next time sheâll end up somewhere worse than a mental hospital,â Jian Qing said coldly.
To rack up some good karma for her babies, she could let Chu Ruohan off. Even if Ruohan was not insane, the experience in the mental hospital would be enough to make her life a living nightmare.
âAlso, the Chu family had better stay away from me. Donât provoke me. You should know that even without JK International, it would be a piece of cake for me to bring down the Chu family,â she threatened confidently.
Chu Yihenâs face grew dark as ink, his throbbing veins reflecting his current state of anger.
Before he could even open his mouth to speak, a dial tone came from the other end of the phone. She had hung up.
âSir, your coffee.â
The waitress set down the coffee and looked up to see Chu Yihenâs somber expression. Sensing danger, she swiftly walked away.
Chu Yihen stared down at the piping hot coffee on the table, his gloomy eyes tinged with a hint of mockery.
Jian Qing, do you really want to force me to be your enemy?
âŠ
The wind stirred the clouds, the sky a light blue.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, a couple exchanged vows and the rings that symbolized happiness, the cheers of the crowd echoing through the landscape.
Zhan Mingyan stood to the side, watching the newlyweds embracing passionately on stage. Her lips curled up into a smile of congratulations and she clapped along with the crowd.
Such happiness, it was wonderful.
âCome and get ready to catch the bouquet!â
âThe bouquet is mine, nobody else gets to snatch it from me!â
âThat depends, itâs up to whichever direction the bride throws the bouquet.â
Guests were discussing and laughing. Zhan Mingyan was pushed by the crowd and when she steadied herself, she was in the group waiting to catch the bouquet.
âThe bouquet is about to be thrown.â
The bride, standing on the stage with the bouquet in hand, smiled sweetly.
âThree!â
âTwo!â
Just as the word âOneâ was recited, the bride, with her back facing the crowd, threw the bouquet backwards.
âItâs mine!â
âStop fighting with me, the bouquet is mine.â
âDonât push me.â
Unmarried bridesmaids and ladies all rushed up, their faces full of eager smiles, their eyes all fixed on the bouquet in mid-air.
Zhan Mingyan, having no stake in the matter, looked around at the women who were extremely excited about the bouquet and smiled helplessly.
Under the sunlight, the exquisite bouquet drew a beautiful parabola in the sky and descended straight down.
Thump.
The bouquet unexpectedly landed in Zhan Mingyanâs arms. She looked at the bouquet in her arms, caught between laughter and tears.
Did this count as an effortless victory?
Everyone paused for a moment before breaking out in cheers, looking at Zhan Mingyan, even those who didnât catch the bouquet didnât lose heart and clapped and cheered as well.
âMingyan, I hope you find your true love soon and become a beautiful bride!â The bride, in her white wedding dress, said with a radiant smile on her face.
âThank you!â Zhan Mingyan shook the bouquet towards her, smiled and replied, âI wish you happiness for a lifetime.â
The bride and groom looked at each other, responding to everyoneâs blessings with a kiss.
Zhan Mingyan held the bouquet and exited the crowd to a quieter spot. She looked down at the fragrant bouquet in her arms, a white silhouette gradually taking form in her mind.
The handsome face, slightly uplifted peach blossom eyes, deep and magnetic voice, all were still clearly etched in her mind.
She shook her head slightly and bit her lip.
Zhan Mingyan, why are you still thinking of that bastard, donât think, donât think.
âMingyan, why are you standing here all alone?â The bride, dressed in a glorious wedding gown, approached, affectionately linking arms with Zhan Mingyan.
âEveryone is having fun over there, why donât you join them? Are you preoccupied with something?â
âNo, not really. Sanny, congratulations,â Zhan Mingyan said with a smile.
âYou caught the bouquet, so I guess I should be able to attend your wedding soon,â Sanny joked.
Zhan Mingyan exchanged a laugh with her, âLetâs hope itâs a good omen.â
âBy the way, after the wedding, weâre having a party at one of Gersonâs bars tonight, you should come too. You never know, you might meet your destined one. Gerson and I actually met in a bar,â Sanny said with a laughing, âI and Gerson actually met in a bar.â
Zhan Mingyanâs lips curled into a smile, âSanny, while such things happened to you, they may not occur to me, as luck doesnât come to everyone.â
âCome on, we havenât gathered in a long time, regardless of whether or not thereâs a destined one, it would be fun to meet. It wonât hurt to meet some friends,â Sanny, held onto her hand, fervently inviting her.
âAlright, I promise, if you continue shaking my hand like this, Iâm going to get dizzy,â Zhan Mingyan said, pressing down on Sannyâs hand with a light laugh.
Sanny, âThat sounds more like you, letâs go and join the others.â
Sanny took Zhan Mingyanâs hand and led her towards the company of bridesmaids and groomsmen.
The night erased the last trace of the afterglow of the sunset, the lights, glowing brightly, illuminated the bustling city.
The powerful beats, explosive music, marked the beginning of the night party.
Under the colorful lights, the warmth from the wedding spread to the nighttime party. On the dance floor, a group of young people twisted their bodies wildly, indulging in revelry.
To host this party, Gerson had reserved an entire floor to ensure his friends would have a great time.
