Chapter 187 (You Didn’t Even Ask Me How I’ve Been All These Years!) Reunion after Six Years

While running forward, Chen Yuanxi was embraced by Zhao Yuan from behind and dragged to the back of the stage.

Before Zhao Yuan could say something, Zheng Kai grabbed his collar with anger. “Zhao Yuan, You b*stard!” He shouted. Zhao Yuan did not say anything but turned his head and looked at Chen Yuanxi. Chen Yuanxi raised his head, looking at Zheng Kai, his eyes as calm as water.

“F*ck! It’s you, Wenxi!” Zheng Kai slowly let go of Zhao Yuan. He looked at Chen Yuanxi with hesitation.

“My name is Chen Yuanxi.” Chen Yuanxi corrected Zheng Kai coldly. He was extremely calm as he looked at Zheng Kai.

Zheng Kai gave him a hug and shouted, “Cut the crap! Where have you been all these years? You look even more handsome!” He then pushed Chen Yuanxi away and gave him a heavy punch. “I’ll deal with you later!” With that, he hurried to the stage.

Everything became quiet. After a short while, Zheng Kai’s voice rang out on the stage, “Everyone, please calm down. Something seemed to have happened to Wanxin’s brother, so Wanxin asked her groom to find her brother just now.” The host just came back to himself and he hurried to cooperate with Zhen Kai to explain the reason for the groom’s sudden missing.

“Wenxi!” Zhao Yuan held Chen Yuanxi firmly, pressing his chin against Chen Yuanxi’s shoulder. He did not know what to say, but only wrapped around him tight with his arms, as if as soon as he loosed his arms, the person in front of him would disappear like the wind and would never be found again.

Chen Yuanxi did not answer.

“How have you been these years? Are you okay?” Zhao Yuan began to choke. He gave Chen Yuanxi a heavy punch, and then touched him gently. He clenched his fists, but did not know what to do.

Chen Yuanxi stood still, like a statue.

“You finally belong to her, right?” After a while, Chen Yuanxi asked.

“Wenxi, Wanxin and I didn’t apply for the marriage license!” Zhao Yuan sobbed and continued, “Wenxi, you’re so cruel! You didn’t even ask me how I’ve been and what I’ve suffered all these years! No... that’s enough. You still care about me, don’t you?”

Chen Yuanxi’s shoulders suddenly drooped.

He had thought of Zhao Yuan every day and night for the over 3000 days of the past six years, and he had never forgotten how miserable his father looked before death.

He had thought that the first time he saw Zhao Yuan after his returning to China would be on a business occasion. Or maybe Zhao Yuan had gone back to his hometown, Yangzi County. Or maybe Zhao Yuan had become a lecturer of the Jifu University after graduation. Chen Yuanxi had not been eager to find Zhao Yuan after returning, because he was clear why he had left a few years ago.

However, the other day, he saw Zhao Yuan in dark-color sport suits under a birch when he was at the governmental compound which would be demolished. That man stood under the lush foliage, looking calm, restrained and mature.

He could not tell whether they would be enemies or friends.

Six years had passed, and many things had changed.

The closer he was to home, the more nervous he became.

The moment he got a call from Shu Xiaoman that Zhao Yuan and Chen Wanxin were getting married, he could no longer stay calm. He just wanted to see Zhao Yuan before Zhao Yuan became his brother-in-law.

“Wenxi, say something! It has been six years. Why did you leave me so long time? Why?” Zhao Yuan seemed to have lost his mind. He shook Chen Yuanxi’s shoulders crazily.

“Kiss me.” Chen Yuanxi raised his head, looking at Zhao Yuan quietly.

Zhao yuan was obedient. He kissed Chen Yuanxi passionately, their love lingering between lips and teeth.

“Hold me tight.”

Zhao Yuan hugged him tight and almost rudely. It nearly choked him. The feeling was so familiar. Zhao Yuan had never been rude to him, and he was gentle even when he kissed him. However, he had always been so aggressive and dominating when he held him in his arms, making him feel that he could not even belong to himself, but only to Zhao Yuan.

That was enough.

“Six years ago, you had two choices—forget the hatred and stay away from here with me, or nurse your strength and bide your time. Yuan, you chose the latter, so I couldn’t stay here with you. I want you to be safe from all this. Leave the rest to me, okay?” At the moment, Chen Yuanxi suddenly saw Zhang Dong’s figure flashing outside. He immediately let go of Zhao Yuan and was about to leave, but Zhao Yuan firmly grabbed him by the hand. They were Like two tangled ivies, and nothing could separate them.

“Wenxi, I can do everything you want. But promise me that you will talk to me every day, and you will show up in front of me every day! Do you know how I feel? I’m going crazy!” Zhao Yuan said in a harsh voice.

“You’re more like a little girl!” Chen Yuanxi chuckled. “You won’t let me down,” he said.

“I will guard you in the nearest place to you. That’s enough.” Zhao Yuan smiled inwardly.

Just now, a discussion rose among the guests. Although everything was still in order, some media reporters waiting outside the university heard the news and tried every means to come in. Hearing Zheng Kai’s explanation, the guests fell into a moment’s silence. Mo Qian asked Luo Yang to play the wedding photos on loop behind the stage. After that, the guests calmed down.

Chen Wanxin was filled with anger, but the moment she saw Zheng Kai, her tears welled up. Zheng Kai walked down from the stage and sat next to her. At the same time, he taught his men how to prevent the media reporters from coming in, and how to evacuate guests in case of chaos. Apart from this, he did not say anything with a serious look. He did not even talk to Chen Wanxin.

When the groom strode onto the stage, the crowd roared again.

“Where is my bride?” Zhao Yuan asked loudly on the stage.

Chen Wanxin raised her head, tears streaming down. Zheng Kai smiled at her all the time. After the beautiful figure hurried to the stage, Zheng Kai felt his heart stop beating for a second. He then turned around and returned to his working position.

“Your brother questioned me why his sister’s wedding was so simple. I told him that I was not wealthy yet, and when I made a fortune in the future, I would hold a big wedding for his sister. Your brother also told me that his sister’s favorite fruits were cherry and carambola, and she did not like to eat something both sour and spicy. Besides, he said his sister did not like to sleep with a high pillow or too soft mattress.” With that, Zhao Yuan walked to Chen Wanxin. He held her tight and kissed her deeply.

The guests broke into prolonged and continuous applause.

Outside the Jifu University...

“Zhang Dong, what did you see?” Chen Yuanxi asked in a low voice.

“Nothing. But I’m not sure if Luo Yang saw something. I just wanted to remind you,” Zhang Dong said with a smile.

Chen Yuanxi’s heart sunk. “What on earth do you want to do?”

Zhang Dong took out a cell phone and showed him a video shot from a top view angle. In the video, Chen Yuanxi saw what he had just done with Zhao Yuan at the back of the stage.

“It will be dangerous if you can’t control your feelings,” Zhang Dong said with a serious look.

“How dare you shot the video?” Chen Yuanxi could not help but fly into a rage.

“See whose phone it is!” With that, Zhang Dong took out his own cell phone and dialed Luo Yang’s phone number. Then the phone in his hand began to vibrate.

“You can decide for yourself what to do with this video.” Zhang Dong smiled, looking at the distant grounds. Luo Yang had just dressed his wound, and now he was standing there, his face black and blue. Mo Qian stood by his side, face darkened.

“What do you want from me?” Chen Yuanxi asked.

“Mo Qian asked me to monitor you and report to him at any time. Mr. Chen asked me to protect you,” Zhang Dong answered.

“Then what are you actually doing?” Chen Yuanxi asked slowly.

“I’m doing what I want to do.” Zhang Dong said seriously, “I regard you as Lin Wenxi.”

Chen Yuanxi thought for a while and then took Luo Yang’s cell phone from Zhang Dong. There was neither call record nor short message inside. He only saw the video shot just now in the album, and he had no idea if it had been sent to anyone else.

Chen Yuanxi suddenly slammed the cell phone onto the ground and crushed it with his foot. Such cell phones had been specially treated, and once the video was deleted, nobody could restore it. However, Chen Yuanxi was still afraid that in case this video was seen by Chen Tianjiao, it would cause another storm.
