Chapter 95 Yu X Xu
When did you break up...?
Maybe it’s because death has made the memories blurry, or maybe Yu Qian is just too forgetful. Now when she thinks back on it, the images that emerge in her mind are all hazy.
It must have been a summer afternoon, maybe sunny, or maybe not so good, anyway, it was just an ordinary day.
Not long after Xu Weiyi got up, she was wearing a suspender pajamas and sitting on the sofa in the living room eating.
She had just finished washing up, and her long hair draped over her back was a little messy. Her small face, the size of a palm, was not made up, and her complexion was fair and moist. At first glance, she looked like a pure girl.
But Yu Qian felt that Xu Weiyi had nothing to do with the word "pure".
There was a popular variety show on TV with many guests and it was very noisy.
Yu Qian listened for a while, then suddenly walked over and turned off the TV.
Xu Weiyi was dissatisfied, "What are you doing?"
Yu Qian said, "Let's stop here."
There were no signs or foreshadowing, it was straightforward and unexpected, just like how they started.
Xu Weiyi's expression paused for a moment, then he tilted his head and said "Oh".
"I have a fiancée and I'm getting married."
Yu Qian pulled out a group photo from her phone, waved it in front of Xu Weiyi, and then quickly put it away.
Afterward, she felt a bit regretful, feeling it was unnecessary. Seeing Xu Weiyi's calm reaction, it seemed she didn't need to explain anything.
The air fell silent. Yu Qian couldn't think of anything else to say. "Do you have anything else to say?"
Xu Weiyi thought for a moment, his eyes sincere, "Can you let me finish this month? Otherwise, I'll have to forget about the salary."
Yu Qian's mouth twitched, "No need, I'll give you perfect attendance."
He had compromised in front of her for money in the past, and now he came to this hellhole for money. After being apart for such a long time, Xu Weiyi really hasn't made any progress at all.
What about salary and full attendance? It's a good thing they could say them at the time. They really treated it as a job.
"Yeah, I never thought this day would come." Yu Qian glanced at the girl next to her and said sarcastically, "It's my bad luck to meet you."
Xu Weiyi didn't answer, but the curve of her lips clearly told her that she must be in a good mood.
Maybe Xu Weiyi will be happy as long as he can make her unhappy.
What an ungrateful person! At least she helped her once.
Yu Qian thought casually.
In the church, sunlight shines through the colored glass windows, casting a soft light on everything around.
Soft music coming from somewhere echoed in the air, like the song of an angel.
Rows of wooden tables and chairs were empty, with no one around. On the tables were fragrant flowers, their petals damp with moisture.
The red carpet spread out from under the feet and extended all the way to the podium in the front.
"What is that?"
Xu Weiyi stared at the figure next to the podium, with a hint of panic in his voice.
Even from a distance, one could tell there was something strange about the man: pale skin, an overly thin figure wrapped in a black robe, and blood-red lips stretched almost to his ears.
It's like Satan wearing priest's clothes, luring humans into his trap.
"Who knows, our emcee."
Now it was Yu Qian's turn to be in a good mood. Looking at Xu Weiyi's formidable look, she felt that she had finally turned the tables.
Her tone was cold, as if it had nothing to do with her. "But, it doesn't look like a human."
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a human or a ghost. As a dead person, how could she be afraid of ghosts?
Xu Weiyi became even more nervous. "Should we go over there?"
She shrank back unconsciously like a frightened cat, her fingers holding up her skirt tightening slightly, causing a few wrinkles to appear on the cloud-like hem.
"Of course I have to go, otherwise how can I get married?"
Yu Qian found it increasingly amusing, but remained indifferent on the surface. "If you're really scared, just follow me."
"Who's scared?" Xu Weiyi curled his lips and forced himself to remain calm. "Let's go."
Perhaps because her wedding before her death was not satisfactory, Yu Qian had no good feelings about weddings and did not want to experience it again and bring back those unbearable memories.
Fortunately, the wedding was much simpler than I had imagined.
Without parents from both sides, there will be no speeches; without guests, there will be no blessings; without bridesmaids and groomsmen, even the bouquet throwing process will be omitted.
There was only a slightly lonely couple standing in front of the strange master of ceremonies listening to him read the wedding vows.
"Ms. Yu Qian, are you willing to marry Miss Xu Weiyi?"
The emcee had a strange face and a hoarse voice, but he didn't embarrass them. He just went through the process in a strict manner, "Whether you are rich or poor, healthy or sick, love each other and never leave each other, until death do you part."
He paused, his stiff eyes turning to Yu Qian, "Are you willing?"
Yu Qian simply said, "I do."
The emcee read the oath again and asked Xu Weiyi the same question, to which he also received an affirmative answer.
"Well, congratulations, both of you." He slowly smiled and reached into the pocket of his robe to pull out a small box. "Well, please exchange rings."
The small white velvet box lay in his bony hands like a rose among thorns. The lid opened automatically, revealing two rings with a soft luster.
Yu Qian picked up one of them, but found that it was different from ordinary wedding rings.
Where the diamond should have been, there was only an open ring setting, like a tree without leaves in winter, which looked a bit funny.
The MC said, "The wedding ring is a symbol of love. Please take good care of it. Love can overcome any difficulty. Maybe one day, it can save your life."
This is a fresh line I haven't heard before. Is it implying that the ring is a life-saving prop?
The incomplete ring in front of me makes me feel insecure. Can a diamond ring without a diamond still play its role?
Yu Qian looked at the host and asked tentatively, "Where's the diamond?"
The emcee maintained a stiff smile and said, "Sorry, no comment."
Yu Qian and Xu Weiyi asked a few more questions, but the emcee kept repeating the same thing, and they couldn't get any more answers. So they gave up and honestly put the rings on each other's fingers.
"The wedding is over. I wish you two happiness forever and a lifetime of companionship."
"Now, please leave the church."
When he was about to reach the door, Xu Weiyi suddenly muttered something in a low voice.
Yu Qian didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"
"I say," Xu Weiyi rolled his eyes at her, "you're not suitable for wedding vows at all."
Yu Qian was so angry that she almost laughed, "Same here."
Yes, she is not suitable, but how can Xu Weiyi have the nerve to say that about her?
To sum up their previous ill-fated relationship, one was after money and the other was after sex, and neither of them was much better than the other.
"Don't talk nonsense." Xu Weiyi immediately retorted, "I'm not like you."
Yu Qian felt that Xu Weiyi might have a negative personality, or she might be simply targeting herself, otherwise why would she be rebuked for every word she said?
She sneered, "What's the difference?"
Xu Weiyi muttered something again, but Yu Qian didn't hear it, but she didn't ask any more questions.
Because Dina's figure suddenly appeared at the door of the church.
The light from the sky poured in from the open door. She stood against the light, the expression on her face dark and unclear.
Dina's voice was very sweet, "Happy wedding."
Yu Qian said, "You're not just saying this, are you?"
"Of course not." Dinah curled the ends of her hair with her slender fingers, looking interested. "Remember what I said about the test of love?"
Yu Qian: “Remember.”
In the dim light, Dina's lips curled up. She raised her arm, and suddenly a bulging cloth bag appeared out of thin air in her hand.
"Love needs money as its foundation. If you think love is enough to satisfy you, that's all deception."
Dina weighed the bag in her hand, making a metallic clang. "Here are gold coins, which will greatly help you in the upcoming trials. However, the gold coins cannot be shared. They belong to one person and can only be held by one person."
Xu Weiyi: "What do you mean?"
"That is, you now need to decide who owns these gold coins. The owner of the gold coins can use them at will. The other party may not raise any objections, nor may they use any means to destroy or consume the gold coins."
Xu Weiyi now understood, "Simply put, who will manage the money after marriage?"
Dina: "Almost. You can understand it that way."
Yu Qian was listening to the conversation between the two, and suddenly the wedding vows just now popped up in her mind, which were the words "whether poor or rich".
Could what Dina said have anything to do with this oath?
If the person who gets the gold coins is "rich", then the person who doesn't get the gold coins is "poor"?
Yu Qian asked: "What are the gold coins for?"
Dina didn't answer directly, "You'll know in a moment."
She placed the cloth bag on the ground. "The first person to touch the gold coin will be the owner. Please decide within fifteen minutes who the gold coin belongs to and leave the church. Otherwise, the challenge will be considered a failure."
"I have another question," Yu Qian said, "What good will it be for us to successfully pass the test? Can we leave here?"
"You'll know when the time comes." Dinah was still vague, but emphasized one point, "But you have to remember that death here is real, so please cherish your life."
After saying that, Dina's figure flashed and slowly disappeared into the morning light without a trace.
Both eyes looked at the cloth bag on the ground at the same time, but no one moved.
Just now Dina said that the gold coins can help them later. According to common sense, if it is a really useful item, it is obviously better to keep it in one's own hands.
After a moment, Xu Weiyi spoke first, "What are you looking at? Just take what you want."
This person spoke as if he had taken some medicine, but at the critical moment, he was humble. He knew that he might die in the upcoming test, but he still dared to say such words to her?
She really wanted to open Xu Weiyi's head and see what her brain was made of.
Yu Qian looked at Xu Weiyi in surprise and felt very uncomfortable.
She said with a stern face, "Take it. Don't you like money the most?"
It’s not that she is selfless, but she feels that she is already dead and there is no need to fight with Xu Weiyi anymore.
From what Dina said, if she failed the test, the worst result would be death, so what was there for her to be afraid of?
After hearing this, Xu Weiyi did not move and stood there silently.
She was bathed in sunlight, her gorgeous wedding dress was shining brightly, but her slightly lowered eyes were dim.
Yu Qian had no patience and urged her, "What are you standing there for? It's already been at least three minutes. Do you really have to drag it out until the timeout?"
"Yu Qian." Xu Weiyi turned around and asked a question she hadn't expected. "Did you say I wasn't as good as her because I loved money too much?"
