☆、114、The Acting Skills at the Wedding (2182 words)
Li Yaxi and a few others sat at a table, along with Zhou Yang, whom Li Yaxi disliked intensely.
Li Yaxi ignored Zhou Yang, and because of the Feng family incident, the relationship between Zhan Xiaoyu, Zhao Yi, and Zhou Yang had eased considerably, so the two of them pretended not to feel awkward and started chatting by themselves.
Li Yaxi sat quietly, occasionally eating the candies and melon seeds that Feng Zihao handed her.
I ran into Zhou Yang in the restroom, but he ignored me.
Zhou Yang blocked him, and Li Yaxi looked at him coldly.
"What? You want to cause me trouble?"
Zhou Yang looked at him with a forced smile and said, "Believe it or not, Zihao will definitely be mine in the end."
I don't believe it.
Li Yaxi smiled and wiped her hands. "You've dealt with the Han family, saved the Feng family, and won over the Yan family. How hard do you think it would be to crush you? Besides, your self-inflicted injury scheme didn't work last time. What, what other tricks are you planning to play? Your parents are still alive, aren't they!"
Zhou Yang looked at him coldly, "Why are you bringing family into this between us?"
"What, scared? You're nothing special. I thought you were going to declare war on me!"
"you!"
"Kid, you're still too green to mess with me."
Zhou Yang pinned Li Yaxi against the wall. "Tell me, if Brother Zihao finds out we've done this, who will he blame?"
"Zhou Yang, you're really bored. You're not satisfied with just one time and want to do it again?"
As she spoke, Li Yaxi punched Zhou Yang in the face, followed by a knee kick to Zhou Yang's abdomen.
"Well, you don't need to provoke me. Go ahead, go tell your brother Zihao that I hit you, and that it hurt a lot!"
Zhou Yang was bent over and couldn't breathe for a long time.
"Li Yaxi! You fucking bastard! Why did you even show up! I've been with Zihao for so many years, why is it that as soon as you arrive, Zihao completely ignores me! What's so great about you! Besides that face, what's so good about you!"
"Even without me, Feng Zihao would never be with you! What can I say about me? And what about you! You're not as good-looking as me, your family background isn't as good as mine, you're not as smart as me, and you're not as capable as me! Don't tell me that relationships aren't about survival of the fittest; even if they were, you'd still be the loser!"
Zhou Yang looked at him coldly. "Loser? Fine, I'll see who the ultimate winner is!"
Li Yaxi gave a cold laugh and returned to the hall.
Feng Zihao looked at him with concern, "Why did it take so long? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Don't you even realize who else is missing besides me?"
Feng Zihao glanced over; he hadn't noticed when Zhou Yang had left.
"Did he cause you trouble?"
Li Yaxi smiled and said, "He's just challenging me to a declaration of war."
Feng Zihao frowned, and took Li Yaxi's hand under the table.
"Ya Xi, don't worry, I'll explain everything to him."
"What's there to explain? Feelings are the hardest thing to explain. I'll be at ease if you stay away from him in the future!"
Feng Zihao smiled and nodded, "Okay, stay far away from him from now on."
The two looked at each other and laughed. Zhou Yang's eyes turned even more sinister as he looked at the glaring scene.
As the music began, the newlyweds walked arm in arm down the red carpet to the front of the stage.
The emcee was spouting a bunch of nonsense, and Li Yaxi leaned back in her chair and watched.
"Lu Wei's acting is really good. If you didn't know better, you'd think he was really eager to get married!"
Feng Zihao smiled but didn't say anything.
Just as they were about to exchange rings, the screen behind them, which had been showing their wedding photos, suddenly switched to a video.
The bride, dressed in a wedding gown, leaned against a man's chest, but that man was not the groom.
Ruwei, surprised and incredulous, slowly withdrew his hand to look at her.
"This isn't real, is it?"
Xu Jie'er shook her head frantically, "That's not how it is, Awei, no, let me explain."
A group of people were busy turning off the screen, but they were stopped by the Lu family.
The large screen was still playing footage of the couple being affectionate, and what was supposed to be a romantic wedding song had turned into a jarring conversation.
"It's all my fault for being useless. If I weren't so useless, you and the child wouldn't be able to..."
"It's not your fault, it's all my dad's fault. Don't worry, I'll wait for you, and my baby in my belly will wait for you too."
"I'm so sorry to have wronged you. The thought that my son and my woman have to marry someone else and call him 'Dad' makes me...!"
The audience erupted in uproar, mostly among politicians.
Yan Baisong glanced at Xu Jie'er's father, glared at him angrily, and turned to leave.
Some of Yan Baisong's followers saw that he had left and hurriedly followed him.
Gradually, people dispersed in twos and threes, until only the Xu and Lu families remained.
Zhan Xiaoyu patted Lu Wei on the shoulder. "Call us if you need anything."
Lu Wei nodded with a smug look on his face, but still pretended to be indignant.
As soon as Li Yaxi got back into the car, she burst into laughter, "Did you see that old man Xu's face? It was more radiant than my 64-color paintbrush! I was dying to see him like that! Great, things are resolved perfectly!"
Feng Zihao helped him fasten his seatbelt. "Who said it was perfect? A single misstep in the aftermath could result in a lose-lose situation. Okay, let's go to the bowling alley and wait for Lu Wei to come and report on the situation."
Li Yaxi nodded, leaning back in her chair and yawning repeatedly.
As soon as they arrived at their destination, Li Yaxi couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep in a chair. Feng Zihao took off his coat and covered Li Yaxi with it.
"How passionate were you two last night? You're so sleepy."
"Ya-Xi takes a nap every day, it's time."
Zhan Xiaoyu took a running start and threw a ball; one of them landed upright, not completely flattened.
"What a pampered young master! He was spoiled by you when he was little, and now he's spoiled by you, his dad, and his brother. This kid is really lucky!"
Feng Zihao's eyes darkened, and he didn't reply.
When Ruwei arrived, they were all exhausted and sat down to rest.
"How did things go?"
"Everything is going smoothly. As long as he doesn't marry Xu Jie'er, everything is fine. They're in negotiations now, so I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Ya Xi, give me that kid's address."
Li Yaxi was woken up by Lu Wei and looked at him groggily. Feng Zihao glared at Lu Wei.
"It's okay, sweetie, keep sleeping."
Li Yaxi rubbed her eyes and sat up. "What?"
"fine"
Li Yaxi yawned widely. "Oh, I'm going to the restroom."
