Li Qiyang glanced at the other three players before finally whispering to the "matchmaker" next to him, "Sister, what did you do before?"
“A psychological counselor.” “The matchmaker” took a deep breath. “Now I need to prepare myself mentally.”
The matchmaker looked Li Qiyang up and down, then lowered her voice and asked, "Why did you just give the identity of 'the boss's groom' to that person? Are you two very familiar with each other?"
Li Qiyang replied somewhat awkwardly, "Actually... we're not particularly close, he just saved me before."
"You're quite generous, giving him the groom's position right away? Isn't it good to have a wife?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qiyang waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no! I'm straight! Besides... that person is awesome."
The matchmaker nodded thoughtfully: "I see... no wonder he seemed so confident."
Just then, a cold wind blew by.
The once gloomy courtyard was suddenly brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, with large red lanterns hanging everywhere, and cheerful music coming from all directions.
Dozens of "guests" stood neatly on both sides of the red carpet, with stiff smiles on their faces.
"The groom has arrived!" a shrill voice shouted.
Li Yuheng squinted and discovered that these "guests" were all paper effigies, with exaggerated facial features painted on their pale faces, and traces of bamboo strips could be seen at their joints.
“Master…” Li Qiyang stammered as he leaned closer, “These…these…”
"That's pretty eco-friendly." Li Yuheng casually patted the shoulder of a paper figure. "Recyclable materials, low-carbon wedding, it's worth promoting."
The paper figure's head snapped 180 degrees, staring at him with empty eyes.
Li Yuheng turned its head back without changing its expression: "Stop fooling around, today is my big day."
Paper doll: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Li Yuheng continued walking along the red carpet, as if he were truly a groom coming to fetch his bride.
Li Qiyang and the other three players followed cautiously behind, fearing that the paper figures might suddenly attack and hurt them.
However, strangely, these paper figures simply stood there quietly, with eerie smiles on their faces, watching them walk by.
“Master…” Li Qiyang lowered his voice, “Do you know something?”
Li Yuheng didn't even turn his head: "I know."
He's getting married.
"Then...can you tell us?"
"cannot."
Li Qiyang: "...?"
Li Yuheng suddenly stopped and turned to look at them, his face serious: "Ladies and gentlemen, today is my big day. As guests, shouldn't you show your appreciation?"
The four players looked at each other in bewilderment.
Li Yuheng sighed: "Forget it, I can't count on you guys."
He turned and continued walking, muttering to himself, "Can't even afford a red envelope, and they still have the nerve to come to a wedding banquet..."
The four players: "..."
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the music suddenly became more urgent.
A tall, slender figure slowly walked out of the hall ahead.
The man was dressed in a black wedding robe, with a large red silk flower pinned to his chest. His face was handsome but gloomy, a grown-up version of Shu Bai.
The matchmaker gasped, quietly tugged at Li Qiyang's sleeve, and whispered, "Look, that should be the boss... which is your wife."
Li Qiyang, looking completely bewildered, repeated, "This...is my wife?"
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but just loud enough for Li Yuheng, who was walking in front, to hear clearly.
Li Yuheng stopped abruptly and slowly turned his head: "Say it again?"
It was Li Yuheng's oversight; he should have had Black Impermanence arrange a special eighteen levels of hell experience package for Li Qiyang when he made the "long-distance call."
Li Qiyang's face turned deathly pale, and he frantically waved his hands, shouting, "No, no, no! It's not my wife! Master, please let me explain!"
Li Yuheng narrowed his eyes, a dangerous smile playing on his lips: "Oh. Not your wife? You're quite disappointed?"
"No, no!" Li Qiyang exclaimed anxiously, sweating profusely. "I'm not disappointed at all! Really! I'm homophobic! Extremely homophobic!"
Li Qiyang finally recognized him.
The man's profile is exactly the same as the one Li Yuheng carried that day, the one he wouldn't let him see!
It turns out that the "wife" Li Yuheng was talking about was actually the boss in front of him!
Holy crap!
As expected of the protagonist, she actually dares to date the boss!
Li Yuheng snorted coldly, turned around and strode towards Shu Bai, wearing an expression of first meeting on his face: "This must be the bride, right? It's an honor to meet you."
Shu Bai was somewhat speechless, but she played along with his act: "...You're the player who drew the groom's lot?"
"It is indeed I," Li Yuheng said with an exaggerated bow. "May I ask the bride's name?"
"...Sparse and white."
"Great name!" Li Yuheng clapped his hands in praise. "It sounds perfect for me as my wife!"
Everyone: "..."
Shu Bai watched Li Yuheng's exaggerated performance with a blank expression, but a barely perceptible hint of indulgence flashed deep in his dark eyes.
…
Li Yuheng grabbed Shu Bai's wrist, grinned, and stood in front of the hall. He bowed to the void and said, "Heaven and earth bear witness that we are married today. From now on, I will be the most handsome man in the world, and my wife will spoil me the most!"
Shu Bai remained expressionless, but did not pull her wrist away, letting him hold it, and said coldly, "...Just bow then, stop with the nonsense."
On the second bow, Li Yuheng looked around.
Shu Bai glanced at it and said indifferently, "No parents, just worshipping thin air."
Li Yuheng immediately pulled him to bow to the empty seat, saying, "Don't worry, father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will definitely love him. Although I am incredibly handsome, he is the only one in my heart!"
Shu Bai: "...Shut up."
On the third bow.
Li Yuheng turned around with a smile, standing face to face with Shu Bai, and deliberately leaned closer to whisper, "Wife, it's not too late to back out now, is it?"
Shu Bai raised her eyes, reached out and pressed down on the back of his neck.
"Bang!"
Their heads collided violently.
Shu Bai looked at Li Yuheng's slightly upturned upper lip and said softly, "If the cycle is broken... what I want most is... for you to still be by my side."
Li Yuheng was taken aback for a moment, then his smile widened: "Of course, wouldn't it be a huge loss if I didn't accompany you?"
Shu Bai remained silent.
He knew perfectly well that everyone on the plane was already dead, and even if the cycle was broken, they would all just be wandering ghosts.
Let this serve as the answer to the question Yu Heng asked back then.
It is unrelated to life and death, reincarnation, reality and illusion, beginning and end.
