Chapter 27 Drugs, Lies, and Pranks (8)
Zhen Ai turned to look at her, but didn't answer immediately.

Jasmine was upset for no reason.Such a slow reaction is because she is afraid that she will bully her?
Seeing Zhen Ai's calm and watery eyes, Jia Simin's smile faded a bit.Even if she is jealous in her heart, she has to admit that Zhen Ai is beautiful.

Just as Zhen Ai was about to answer, Yan Su nudged her slightly with his elbow: "If you don't want to go, don't go. There is no one you know there."

Zhen Ai said: "There is no one I know here."

Yan Su turned his head, his eyes were not friendly: "I'm not human."

"That's not what I meant," Zhen Ai pursed her lips, "Did I stick to you all the time for today's wedding?"

"Why not?" Yan Su took it for granted, "You don't like strangers, so just follow me."

Zhen Ai lowered her head, her heart beating violently.

She pulled her fingers up and down, deliberating whether to say "Okay", but Jia Simin called her again: "Zhen Ai, come and see the bride!"

With this shout, Haili and grandma both looked this way.

Zhen Ai couldn't refuse, so she answered.

When he got up, he patted Yan Su's arm pretending to be complacent: "Humph, I have a friend, so I won't play with you!" At the end, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She didn't even know why she was in such a good mood at the moment, as good as the bright sunshine on the grass.

Yan Su ignored her, the corners of his lips curled, and he continued to brush the fence.

Zhen Ai trotted over to take a look. Annie was wearing a snow-white spring wedding dress, very beautiful.The seven bridesmaids were dressed in colorful little dresses, like lively candies.

She congratulated Anne stiffly and sincerely.Anne, like Spencer, is very caring, hugging Zhen Ai to express her gratitude.

Jasmin stood aside, staring at Zhen Ai not very friendly.The cold snap returned today, although the sun was out, the temperature was a bit low.Zhen Ai was wearing a white coat, with a large hat piled on her shoulders, against which Yingying's small face was very beautiful.

Jasmin remembered what Yan Su said, "The cold will weaken people's psychological defenses", and the corners of her lips curled up: "Zhen Ai, the dresses that all the ladies wear, may I find you a dress?"

Zhen Aiben thought it was appropriate to wear a skirt, so she was very grateful to Jasmin.

When I went into the fitting room, I opened the pocket and found that it was not a spring style but a summer style, and the material was very thin.Zhen Ai hesitated for a moment, but it was a stranger's wedding after all, she only knew Yan Su, so it's not easy to pick and choose.And her coat can remove the hat, it looks like a small dress, and it will be warm when you put it on.

Just after leaving the fitting room, Jasmine bumped into her accidentally, and the red wine in her glass spilled onto her coat.Jasmine hurriedly apologized, and asked someone to take Zhen Ai's coat to be washed, and then ordered to bring a small dress like the bridesmaid's.

Jasmine smiled: "Zhen Ai, we were discussing the best men just now, have you seen it outside before?"

Zhen Ai nodded.

"We all think the blonde with the blue eyes is the most handsome, what do you think?"

Zhen Ai took a look, then nodded again.

"His name is William. He is Spencer's classmate at Cambridge University. He is from England and has the same name as the prince."

One of the bridesmaids laughed: "Jasmin, you want to match again? But Miss Zhen Ai is the female companion brought by SA, so you don't need to introduce it."

Jasmine concealed a trace of displeasure in her eyes, and replied: "SA brought Zhen Ai here by the way. You don't know SA? He doesn't like girls like Zhen Ai."

Zhen Ai's eyes flashed, her face paled.

"He's so weird, Zhen Ai won't like him, right?" Jasmin stared at Zhen Ai, her words were soft and her eyes were aggressive.

Zhen Ai's heart skipped a beat.

The question unexpectedly pushed her into an awkward and strange angle, and she had to look inside herself.

In fact, she never thought he was weird.

Day after day, she felt that he was upright and awe-inspiring, true and reliable, principled and persistent, full of humanistic feelings, very warm and caring.

Why can't she like such a person?
She actually liked such a person.

Zhen Ai's heart was beating violently, she didn't avoid it, and met Jasmin's gaze directly.

Seeing that she was looking straight at her calmly, the latter felt bad in his heart. Seeing that Zhen Ai was about to answer, he immediately rolled his eyes and spoke first:
"Sorry, I almost forgot. William is the Sir of the Cavendish family in England. These classical aristocratic families pay attention to birth and education. There must be no result with you. After all, not everyone is like Anne. Only Anne This kind of background can really help Spencer in life and career!"

Her voice was very low, only Zhen Ai could hear it.

No matter how dull Zhen Ai was, she could hear what she meant.

Yan Su's family, no matter from the perspective of their father or mother, came from a noble family.Like his older brother Spencer, only Anne of the Addams family could match him.

Jia Simin comforted Zhen Ai with kindness: "But it doesn't matter, William is so handsome and stylish, it's good to play with him. Zhen Ai, you won't lose."

Zhen Ai's face turned pale, and she didn't say a word.

In this life, she has had too little communication with ordinary people, and she doesn't know how to deal with ordinary people.Even though she had encountered bigger storms, it was the first time in her life that Jasmine had encountered such an insidious trick.

Apart from her usual indifference, she didn't know how to respond.

She really felt guilty in her heart, how could she say she liked a person whose identity was false?
At this moment, she really wanted to run away from the wedding, disappear from now on, hide in her laboratory and never see anyone, never come out again.But she is not such a willful person after all.

Since she was a child, she has not been a person who does whatever she wants.

She calmly calmed down the sadness and sadness in her chest, and smiled lightly at Jasmine: "I know, you don't need to worry about it."

Jasmine smiled mischievously, and hugged the bride together with other bridesmaids and went out.

The wedding was about to begin, and Zhen Ai was left alone in the lounge.

The person who found her a coat never came.

Zhen Ai stood where she was, and gradually became cold.The veil skirt was too thin, and it was still wrapped around her chest, and she shivered as soon as she walked to the French window.

She glanced at the guests who were sitting outside one after another, and dared not go out.She was the only one wearing summer clothes, and going out like this would definitely attract the attention of the audience.

She doesn't care what everyone thinks, but she is still sad, she will definitely embarrass Yan Su.If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have come to the wedding with him.

The prosperity that doesn't belong to you in the first place, why come here to join in the fun?
Still thinking, a person flashed in the light and shadow, with picturesque eyebrows and burning eyes, it was Yan Su.

"Why are you in a daze again?" Yan Su opened the white gauze curtain and walked in, frowning, looking rather critical, but when he saw Zhen Ai's empty expression, he froze, pretending to be disgusted Cleanly, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "What's wrong?"

Zhen Ai stared at him blankly, unable to answer.

Yan Su lowered his eyes and glanced, his eyebrows furrowed deeply: "Who changed this messy clothes for you? It's not cold..."

He habitually raised his hand to touch her shoulder, but this time, he stopped halfway.Zhen Ai's white and slender shoulders are very pretty.With such light exposed, he would feel uncomfortable.

He froze for a moment, a blush flashed across his cheeks, and he withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

Zhen Ai didn't understand what he meant, and her heart sank.

Not wanting him to take off the suit jacket in the next second, Zhen Ai suddenly woke up, and just about to shrink back, he couldn't help but put the suit on her body.

This is more eye-catching, Zhen Ai wants to break free, but Yan Su tightly clasped the collar of the suit.No matter how she struggled in her clothes, she was like a fish caught in a net, and he easily controlled her firmly with both hands.

Yan Su didn't know why she was so awkward, he didn't understand it at first, but she was twisting and twisting in his large suit in a panic, unable to get out like a caterpillar wrapped in a chrysalis, she was angry and funny at the moment, guess she It was shy, and he clenched his hands even more tightly, bluffing her:
"Now go to the back row and take a seat, or I will carry you out after everyone is seated. Let everyone not look at the bride, but look at you."

Zhen Ai really didn't move, her black eyes stared at him incredulously, she couldn't figure out why he was so abnormal.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Yan Su out.To sit in the last row, no one noticed her.

Zhen Ai's heart gradually relaxed, her calf was a little cold, but her chest was warm.Yan Su's suit was too big for her, and it was empty on her body, but it felt like a child secretly wearing an adult's clothes, novel and fun.

The wind from the sea rustled the balloons and roses on the white fence.

Zhen Ai looked at Yan Su.Except for his suit jacket, he was only wearing a shirt. The wind blew around, like sweeping the hall, suddenly bulging his shirt, and then clinging to his body again.

He had short hair and a cold face, and Zhen Ai guessed that he might be cold.

But she didn't give him the coat back because she knew he never would take no for granted.

Her heart was as usual, inexplicably warm and peaceful, indescribable.But this time, it brought a very slight pain.

She looked at the strange crowd, suddenly lost in thought.

These days, she completely forgot about her situation, and no longer lived in seclusion and trembling like before.Instead, she followed him calmly and expectantly, walking towards a world that shouldn't belong to her.

When did it start?

Just because he said "When I'm with you in the future, I won't walk so fast", so she wanted to follow in his footsteps, even if he was immersed in his own world, only giving her a peaceful and comfortable profile.

Just because he held her hand once, gave her a hug, gave her a hug, and put on a dress for her, she unconsciously forgot herself.

Thinking back suddenly at this moment, such a little daughter's slightly sad mood is really not suitable for her.

Sitting among the flowers, Zhen Ai took a deep breath of cold air, and said to herself rationally, it's just that no one like this has ever treated you well, that's why you are at a loss.

As if saying this, the unrealistic fantasy in my heart was discarded by reason with a sneer.

She settled down and looked at the bride and groom who were taking oaths on the oath platform holding the Bible.

After watching silently for a while, I couldn't hold back the question in my heart after all, and whispered to Yan Su next to me: "When you are your brother's age, will you marry like him?"

"No." With clear eyes, he looked at the newcomers on the stage, his voice was very low, without hesitation.

Zhen Ai was speechless.

She quietly raised the corners of her lips.

Indeed, it was hard for her to imagine him falling in love and getting married.For a perfect person like him, the shadow in his heart should also be perfect.How hard to find that!
He should not be tempted by anyone, let alone be with him for life.

Even if tempted, it won't be her.

Zhen Ai tightened her suit jacket calmly, tilted her head slightly, and rubbed the stiff neckline, a very faint manly fragrance lingered on her cheeks.How reluctant she is, how attached she is.But she thought, it's time to go back to the past, it's time to leave this unforgettable journey.

She is the child of the devil, he is the light of hope.

After all, not all the way.

But she forgot that Yansu’s understanding has never been extraordinary. The point of her question is,

Will he be "married" like him?

Instead of
Will he marry "like this".

Therefore,
Yan Su thought strangely: I don't believe in Catholicism, so of course I can't get married holding a Bible like Christians.

After the ceremony is the wedding dinner.

Zhen Ai changed her clothes, walked to the table with the seat card, and saw the water sign AI ZHEN with her name on the round table, placed next to SAYAN.

She froze, and then remembered that in the house in Manhattan, she was sitting by the kitchen eating a sandwich, while Yan Su and Hai Li were talking by the elevator.It must have been that time when he asked Haley to add her name to the guest table.

Zhen Ai suddenly felt relieved, and looked around for Yan Su's figure.

He was standing by the flower stand not far away, with his family.Haili and a man were hugging and talking, Jasmin was laughing, only Yan Su was sullen, looking like he was on a errand.

Zhen Ai didn't wait for him, and went to get the buffet.

Every meal of the wedding was exquisitely prepared. Zhen Ai looked left and right, and her gaze first fell on the colorful cheese. Just as she was about to pick it up, a familiar and forbidden voice fell on her ears:

"Too much fat is bad for your cardiovascular system."

Zhen Ai bit her lip naturally, besides Yan Su that spoiler, who else?
After he finished speaking with a blank face, he found it funny to see her slightly disappointed and reluctant expression staring at the cake.She is clearly an adult, but sometimes she inadvertently reveals her thoughts as a simple and ignorant little girl.

He wanted to laugh in his heart, but on the surface he condemned: "You didn't wait for me."

"Aren't you busy?" Zhen Ai said indifferently, she felt weirdly sour when she said the words, so she hurriedly turned her head away to pick up the cake.

Yan Su was also stunned, seeing her absent-mindedly going to get something, he didn't know what to think, he grabbed her hand and ordered: "Eating too much of this is not good for your health."

Zhen Ai gently broke away from his hand, not wanting to be willful or rude, silently put down the trap, and walked forward.Yan Su chased her like an idiot, and told her, "Choose carefully and eat more."

Zhen Ai ignored her, walked a few steps, saw colorful grilled fruit meat skewers, and was about to ask the chef for two skewers;
Yan Su coughed lightly: "Well, that's right. Barbecued fruits and meat are rich in carcinogens."

What Zhen Ai wanted to say stuck in her mouth, she took a pitiful sniff of the fragrance of fruits mixed with barbecue, then turned her head and left listlessly.

I saw fresh crab meat in sauce again, just as I was about to pick it up, Yan Su forbade it again: "Crabs are too cold, do you want to freeze to death next winter?"

Zhen Ai withdrew her hand and said angrily, "You said you want me to eat more, liar!"

"I didn't know that you didn't have the slightest level of food selection," Yan Su exchanged his plate with hers, "Eat this."

Zhen Ai was taken aback for a moment, not knowing when he had already packed a plate full of dishes, beef, lamb chops, vegetables, fruits, salads, sashimi, all kinds of them were neatly arranged in a very stylish way.

Zhen Ai held a plate of dishes, and went back to her seat listlessly.

It wasn't until she sat down that she realized that the dishes Yan Su had picked for her were all for supplementing Yang Qi. Thinking of this, Zhen Ai's heart warmed up.

Suddenly there was another glass of milk in front of him, plus a small plate with two small pieces of brownie and blueberry cheese: "Dessert after dinner."

He deliberately added "after the meal" once, which means that no cake is allowed until the meal is finished.Like coaxing a child.

Zhen Ai took it obediently, a gleam of joy flashed in her jet-black eyes.

Seeing it in Yan Su's eyes, she suddenly remembered that she was in Wenbo's bookstore about a month ago, and she said indifferently and regretfully that she had grown out of candy.

Oh, little liar.

He curled the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly, and stopped talking.

Jasmine on the opposite side looked at it, feeling very angry in her heart.Even she seldom sees Yan Suxiao, and in her memory he has always been indifferent, and there are very few other emotions.

Today, Yan Su's various expressions in front of Zhen Ai are too rich.Pretentious disdain, contempt, dissatisfaction, forbearable ease, private smiles...all challenged her endurance.

He actually gave her clothes to wear, that person who forbade anyone to touch anything as if he would die if he touched him, actually gave Zhen Ai clothes to wear.

Jasmin bit her lips and smiled, and suddenly said to Zhen Ai: "Zhen Ai, didn't you say that in the waiting room just now..." She thoughtfully omitted the following words, leaving people with countless imaginations, "I introduce William to you I know you." As she spoke, she touched the blond British gentleman beside her.

Zhen Ai was puzzled: "What am I talking to you..."

Jasmine interrupted: "Zhen Ai, William."

William politely smiled and nodded at Zhen Ai, he was indeed a gentle man, nodding and smiling, full of classic tone.

Zhen Ai didn't want to be rude, so she nodded to William.

Originally, Jasmin hoped that the two people introduced would have a conversation.But William's demeanor was limited to the category of a gentleman, and he didn't take the initiative, and Zhen Ai didn't answer.

The atmosphere turned cold.

Jasmine pretended to be enthusiastic: "Zhen Ai, you are a student of journalism and mass media, right? William knows a lot of people from newspaper offices. If you want to do an internship, you can ask him for help."

This kind of greeting was beyond the scope of casual acquaintance, William's polite smile restrained, and he gave Zhen Ai a strange look.

In everyone's eyes, Jasmine is an elegant girl.Her behavior today is different from usual.It couldn't be more obvious.Zhen Ai wanted to get to know William through Jasmine, so Jasmine was rude to match the two of them.

Even the sluggish introspection in this kind of twists and turns, also noticed that something was wrong.

Zhen Ai didn't find any problem and said, "Thank you, but there's no need."

"But I said I would help you." Jasmine muttered in a "soft voice".

Zhen Ai was puzzled, but Yan Su said indifferently: "She said no need."
