CH 5.1
Chapter 5.1- Choice
Xie Yu and his team arrived at Su's house at 10.30 a.m. on the wedding day.
As Su Zhan said earlier, he eagerly helped four beautiful bridesmaids block the door to keep Xie Yu and four batsmen out of his sister's bedroom. So Xie Yu had to stuff red envelopes into the room through the crack of the door. Su Zhan always said "Please, brother," but he never opened the door when Xie Yu handed him a red envelope.
He didn't deliberately make things difficult for Xie Yu, but he refused to let him enter the door because once he was allowed to enter this room, his sister would leave with him. As long as she walked out of this door today, she would become a member of someone else's family. So even though he was reluctant, Su Zhan finally opened the door and let Xie Yu and his lackeys in.
After they had done the wedding rituals, the bride was taken away by the bridegroom.
Before going to the reception at the hotel, the bride had to follow the groom home.
Although Xie Yu's mother, Shen Rong, didn't like Su Yan, it was his own son's wedding, so she didn't cause any trouble.
As the Xie family was a rich and underclass family, twenty Rolls Royce cars were prepared as wedding cars, and then, In addition, Xie Yu had many friends, all of whom drove their luxury cars to help.
On the way to Xie's house, all kinds of expensive vehicles lined the entire street, causing many passers-by to look sideways, and many even took out their mobile phones to record small videos.
Su Yan and Xie Yu sat side by side in the Rolls-Royce Phantom at the front of the team.
Su Yan was very excited along the way, her heart was beating fast, and she was a little embarrassed to look at Xie Yu, so since she got in the car, she kept her head down and her cheeks flushed, staring at the bouquet in her hand.
It was very quiet in the car, and Su Yan wanted to talk with Xie Yu, but she became hesitant because she was shy. After waiting for a while, she raised her head and looked at the man beside her quietly; then she was stunned.
Xie Yu's eyes were not on her, but he was looking out the car window. He was frowning, his thin jawline was tight, and his expression looked a little tired and depressed.
Actually, Xie Yu was fighting a battle inside his heart. In the morning, because of the wedding atmosphere, he didn't have time to think about yesterday's incident. But now, the feeling of unease that lingered in his heart came back again in the silent car.
"If you cancel the wedding, I will reward you with a heart that matches your father; otherwise, you will be punished, and your Xie's family will be ruined." That was the first sentence of the strange call he received last night. The man's voice that called him was low, calm, and without any emotion, but the words were full of threats and oppressive. He didn't say much, but they accurately caught his death points: the wedding and the heart.
The first reaction that popped into his mind at the time was: a prank. So he roared and asked, "Who the hell are you?"
However, the other party didn't speak or hang up the phone. That man just kept silent and listened to his rapid and frightened gasps, as if he was torturing him. He was still admiring his terrified expression, like abusing a powerless goat. In the end, he couldn't hold his breath, and asked again: "Who are you?" His ears were filled with the sound of the other person's fingers drumming on the table, which was like the sound of a butcher's knife rubbing on the ground in the pitch-black night, suffocating.
The knocking sound eventually stopped, but before Xie Yu could exhale a sigh of relief, the other party said softly and playfully, "I don't like to force others, Mr. Xie chooses for himself. Do you like to bear the infamy of 'thin lover', the infamy of 'father-killing'?"
"..."
'His love or his father’s life?' Xie Yu was torn between loyalty and filial piety.
Suddenly, Xie Yu felt as though he was being firmly squeezed by an arm: "Why? Why should I believe you? Is it interesting to make a joke like this?"
"Mr. Xie, you don't have much time." The other person hung up the phone.
Xie Yu became very confused and dialed that number, but the phone was already turned off.
It was like having a brief nightmare, chaotic, and there was no distinction between true and false. Only the sound of his erratic breathing lingered in the pitch-black bedroom as the night passed by, like a drowning person who had just been pulled from the water.
He was no longer sure it was a mean prank, but he wasn't sure it wasn't either.
His father was a heart patient, and he needed a heart transplant, and they had been waiting for a long time. Even if there was just a one in 10,000 chance that he could succeed, he would attempt it because if he did not conduct the procedure, his father would undoubtedly pass away.
‘But who can be sure that that person was telling the truth? What if he fabricated a heart out of thin air?’ Am I going to give up the girl I love because of some empty words from a stranger?’
Besides, the wedding was about to start in a few hours. Now that all the relatives and friends of the two families had gathered in Dongfu, how could he cancel the wedding suddenly?
Reasonably, he couldn't do what he said.
He dismissed that person's threats and just treated the phone as a prank, moving forward with the wedding step by step. He would rather act on the established facts than pay attention to the threats of a stranger he didn't know.
However, there was always a slight unease in his heart—that man's heartless voice would occasionally appear in his mind, hovering over him like a sword and preventing him from fully devoting himself to the joy of marrying his beloved girl.
"What's the matter with you?"
Xie Yu abruptly regained consciousness after hearing Su Yan's words, which brought him back to reality: "No, it is nothing."
She scowled slightly and remarked, "You seem to have something to be concerned about." She didn't believe what he had said.
Xie Yu subconsciously avoided her gaze: "Don't worry, nothing is wrong."
Su Yan was hesitant, and slightly pursed red lips, and she gave him a worried glance.
When Xie Yu saw Su Yan’s worried expression, he suddenly felt a little guilty. Today was a day of great joy, but he couldn't make her happy. What kind of man is he?
He quickly adjusted his mood, held her hand, interlocked his fingers, and assured her: "It's really fine, I'm just a little nervous."
Su Yan was startled, with a surprised expression on her face: "Are you still nervous? "
In her impression, Xie Yu was a fearless young man who was not afraid of anything. She had never seen him nervous and even wondered if this person couldn't even write the word "nervous."
Xie Yu and his team arrived at Su's house at 10.30 a.m. on the wedding day.
As Su Zhan said earlier, he eagerly helped four beautiful bridesmaids block the door to keep Xie Yu and four batsmen out of his sister's bedroom.
