Withered Broken Ice Blue

Chapter 287 Wan Wan Lei Qing

At an engagement party, it is often the elders who talk incessantly, while the younger generations mostly sit quietly on the sidelines, appearing a little restrained and unable to get a word in.

The elders were either discussing the details of the wedding arrangements or reminiscing about the growth of their two children.

After discussing the marriage, the two families took a group photo after dinner.

Everyone stood up, put their clothes in order, and had smiles on their faces.

As the protagonists of the engagement banquet, Chi Feiwan and Jiang Huaixu naturally stood in the center.

No wonder Jiang Huaixu took her to get her hair done, it turned out to be preparation for a group photo.

The elders supported each other and stood behind Jiang Huaixu and Chi Feiwan. The younger generations gathered around them with different postures, some slightly sideways, some with their backs straight, all trying to show their best side.

The photographer kept adjusting the angle and directed everyone to look at the camera, "One, two, three, eggplant!"

With the shutter button pressed, this warm and precious moment is frozen forever.

This was a rare occasion where everyone saw smiles on their faces.

At the same time, the official websites of the Chi family and the Jiang family announced the marriage between the two families and posted photos of the engagement party online.

In just a few minutes, it quickly ranked among the top three hot searches on Weibo.

In the photo, Chi Feiwan is wearing a low-key and luxurious champagne-colored dress. The waist-hugging design on the side highlights her beautiful and slender figure under the light, and the necklace on her neck is even more eye-catching.

In the camera, Chi Feiwan pursed her lips and smiled, with the smile gently rippling on her lips, making her flawless and extraordinary face look like a peach blossom on a branch.

Jiang Huaixu next to her was wearing a light blue plaid shirt, black suit pants, and a pair of canvas shoes.

Jiang Huaixu was not wearing a suit, but he held on with his face.

She has thick and long eyelashes, an enviable high nose bridge, and a cold and noble temperament that makes people stay away from her.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, but the smile did not form a big arc at the corners of his lips. In his dark pupils, there was a different kind of gentleness, which did not seem to belong to his usual personality traits.

Contemporary netizens all use a microscope to look at details, and the emotions in Jiang Huaixu's eyes were captured by netizens.

The internet is flooded with news about how well-matched Chi Feiwan and Jiang Huaixu are.

What kind of novels and wealthy families shine into reality.

Words like "childhood sweethearts" and so on.

However, some netizens thought of Song Jinan, and people were speculating online about who Chi Feiwan loved between Jiang Huaixu and Song Jinan.

One netizen commented: [I think Song Jinan is Chi Feiwan’s first love, a brave chapter she wrote when she was young, while Jiang Huaixu is her husband who she will stay with for the rest of her life.]

So who does Chi Feiwan love more?

No netizen can come up with the correct answer. Only the parties involved know that Chi Feiwan’s only love in his life is Song Jinan.

When the engagement of the Jiang and Chi families came out, Chi Yizi, who was unwilling to face it, finally heard this "good news" from Zhu Yu.

Chi Yizi went to the bar to drown his sorrows in alcohol.

Alcohol has always been the best vehicle for venting emotions.

Even though he has been trying to numb himself over the years, desperately trying to bury those feelings that shouldn't exist and don't belong to this relationship deep in his heart, those feelings still come flooding in like a tide.

He thought time would be the best medicine, and that day after day of intoxication would make him forget everything.

However, every time he picked up the wine glass, those deliberately suppressed emotions would break free and occupy his heart unscrupulously.

It was an unspeakable pain, an inextricable tangle that made him sink deeper and deeper into the whirlpool of emotions, unable to extricate himself.

Unrequited love is the most painful, especially when it is taboo.

Chi Yi drank glass after glass of wine. The strong alcohol stimulated his stomach and roared wildly, as if it was going to burn all his internal organs, but he had no intention of stopping.

Those cups of spicy liquid were like an outlet for the unspeakable pain in his heart. He just wanted to use them to escape the troubles of reality.

If the bar hadn't been closed, Chi Yizi would probably have continued drinking without restraint.

He was like a man lost in darkness, desperately trying to grasp that glimmer of hope that would allow him to forget everything.

He wasn't terribly drunk, just sick enough that his vision was blurry.

The world before his eyes began to shake and the lights became blurry, but the figure that broke his heart kept appearing in his mind.

Zhu Yu had just returned from the supermarket when he ran into the drunk Chi Yizi by chance.

Chi Yizi was seen staggering, his body unstable, and his whole body exuding an aura of despair and helplessness.

As Chi Yi got out of the car and looked up, he met a pair of blue eyes that were extremely similar to Chi Feiwan's.

At that moment, he really mistook Zhu Yu for Chi Feiwan, and kept repeating Chi Feiwan's name.

Zhu Yu was somewhat overwhelmed by this sudden situation. She looked at the man in front of her with a face full of pain, her heart filled with confusion and sympathy.

"Wanwan, please don't leave me, okay?" Chi Yizi grabbed Zhu Yu's arm tightly, his eyes full of pleading.

Zhu Yu tried to break free from his hand and said, "Brother Yizhi, you got the wrong person. I am not your sister."

The Chinese accent was obvious, but the drunk Chi Yizi couldn't make it out at all.

Moreover, from Chi Yizi's perspective, Zhu Yu was facing away from the light, with half of his face covered by shadows. The pair of blue eyes fell into Chi Yizi's blurred vision, making it even more difficult to distinguish.

This world is a huge genie. Even if you meet someone who looks like her on the road, you will stop and pay more attention.

Of course, the prerequisite for being like Wanwan is that you don’t have it.

Just the look in Zhu Yu's eyes that looked like Chi Feiwan was enough to make Chi Yizi's heart skip a beat.

The evening breeze gently brushed across Chi Yizi's face, dissipating some of his drunkenness.

The moonlight shone on Zhu Yu's face, finally allowing Chi Yizi to see that face clearly.

Chi Yizi retracted his hands: "Sorry."

Zhu Yu stared at his profile and said, "Brother Yizhi, come to my house. I'll make you some hangover soup."

Chi Yizi nodded.

Zhu Yu helped Chi Yizi home, poured him a cup of warm water, and went to the kitchen to cook sobering soup.

Chi Yizi sat on the sofa, rubbed his temples with his hands, trying to wake himself up.

Zhu Yu came out of the kitchen with some hangover soup and said, "It's too late today, Brother Yizhi should sleep here."

Chi Yizi opened his eyes and took in Zhu Yu's expression at the moment.

A pair of blue eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, with a faint smile.

The girl's blush said it all.

Chi Yizi had also had this kind of look before.

He was just trying his best to restrain himself.

Chi Yizi stared at Zhu Yu's shy face calmly and said slowly: "Do you like me?"
