Stepping on the red rose petals, Wu Muqing held Xia Kezhi's hand and walked across the long carpet. Xia Kezhi's hands were slightly cold, but Wu Muqing's hands were covered in sweat.
The guests stared at the handsome him and the beautiful her. Some wished him well, some felt sorry, some envied him, and some were jealous. That was why people were a combination of contradictions.
In the eyes of others, they were a man and a woman, a match made in heaven. Who could see the haze and uneasiness hidden behind their happiness?
The emcee, who was wearing presbyopic glasses, held a thick stack of oaths. His expression was serious and his footsteps were steady. Happiness was as heavy as the emcee's face.
"Thank you, guests, for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend Mr. Wu Muqing and Miss Xia Kezhi's engagement ceremony. Today, we will witness the promise between the newbies…"
The emcee's words continued, and Xia Kezhi's heart was no longer calm. Her pale fingers revealed her worries and uneasiness. She was afraid. She was not confident that she could put the past behind her and participate in Wu Muqing's future without any distracting thoughts. What if time could not fade those deeply buried memories? What if his heart, which had been filled with someone's memories, could not free up any space? Previously, Xia Kezhi thought that she could forget about it, or at least not think about it. However, recently, she kept thinking about the past and their agreement at the airport.
Wu Muqing reached out to hold Xia Kezhi's pale fingertips and whispered in his ear with a firm and gentle voice,""Don't worry, don't think too much about it. Just hold my hand and I'll do the rest.”
Xia Shi's restless heart slowly calmed down. She tried her best to tell herself not to think about anything and just follow in his footsteps. She had long woken up from her dream and should cherish the person who was always by her side.
There was always a place that he would never mention or forget in his life. There would always be someone who would say sorry to make your heart ache and be engraved in your bones. There was always a part of the past that lived in her heart, but it was said goodbye in her life. What he couldn't forget was his memories. What he could continue was his life. What he missed was just passing by. There were a lot of people coming and going, and there was always a position that had not changed. There was always someone who could be replaced but could not get into that position.
"Now, the bridegroom and bride will exchange their engagement rings.”After the long speech, the emcee's face became even more solemn.
Wu Muqing held Xia Kezhi's hand and walked to the center of the guests. He stood facing Xia Kezhi and stared at her deeply."I really want to hold your hand and grow old together. I want to grow old until my teeth fall out and my hair turns white, but I don't want to let go of your hand.”The engagement ring was very light, but his promise was very heavy. Some people said that the ring finger was connected to the human heart, the closest place to the heart. The ice-cold ring slid onto Xia Kezhi's ring finger bit by bit, and his heart seemed to be trapped layer by layer. So the ring finger was really connected to the heart.
The ring was on her finger? Or her heart? Or her entire life?
Xia Kezhi picked up the man's ring with a trembling hand. His hand seemed to be out of control. It was shaking so hard that he could not find his direction. He kept moving Wu Muqing's ring finger away.
"We agreed that when you grow up, we will get married. Doesn't it count?" It was an unfamiliar yet familiar voice. Xia Kezhi reflexively turned around and stared at him. Then, his face turned pale, his eyes became blurry, and the world went blank, leaving him behind.
The ring fell to the ground, rolled across the long red carpet, and disappeared. It shattered all of Wu Muqing's fantasies. Some of the beautiful and heartwarming scenes were shattered, scattered, and could no longer be pieced together. It turned out that the ring did not trap her heart. Her future was only trapping Wu Muqing's sinking.
He still appeared. When Wu Muqing was closest to Xia Ke, Han Ge appeared. Not a second earlier, not a second later, just right. As long as it was a little later, Wu Muqing would be able to grab his happiness. It was said that happiness that passed by was the most beautiful, but Wu Muqing believed that happiness that passed by was the cruelest. It was not something that could be obtained and could not be forgotten.
Han Ge stood at the door blankly, looking at Xia Kezhi from afar, afraid that he would disappear like in a dream if he got close. Fifteen years ago, the skinny little beggar had already grown up. There was another him standing beside her, and her ring finger still had the warmth of this other person. Han Ge felt like he was just a passer-by in her life and could only watch. Was he supposed to say," Long time no see " or " I wish you happiness "? No! Han Yi couldn't give up on the past or the present. He couldn't do it no matter what. Her future could only be written by him.
The red wedding invitation in Han Yi's hand slowly fell to the ground. That was the debt that Ren Ting 'er had paid.
He approached her step by step, and she panicked a little. Han Yi and Xia Kezhi could not see Wu Muqing's pale face and the shocked expressions of the guests. Only the disguise was collapsing and the memories were making a comeback. The people and things that he thought he had forgotten, the vows on the wooden chair that he thought he had erased, slowly became clear.
"I won't allow you to forget our agreement.”Han Yi used all his strength to hold Xia Kezhi's wrist and swore domineeringly," It's been five years. I've finally found you. I'll never let go again."”
