Chapter 412: Wedding Day (2)
Before Lin Jiage began speaking, his lips had already curled into a smile, and he said, “Today is the wedding day between me and Yaoyao.”
As he spoke, he took out his phone, tapped into the game, opened up his profile page, and showed the indication that he and s.h.i.+ Yao were already in a lover status to Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai, saying, “There, the evidence.”
Xia Shangzhou could vaguely hear the sound of a knife plunging deep into his chests, “…”
Boss, you aren’t treating our sorrows. You’re just worsening things here…
Lu Benlai could clearly hear his gla.s.s heart falling to the ground and shattering into fragments, “…”
I was wrong. I shouldn’t have told him to tell me. I should have covered his ears and rejected his offer vehemently.
It took a while before Lu Benlai finally managed to piece together the shattered fragments of his heart. Holding onto a sliver of hope, he asked, “Boss, are you telling us all of this to give us some red packets so as to cure our sorrows?”
Those words from Lu Benlai snapped Xia Shangzhou out of his dazed state too, and he quickly added on, “Or boss, are you intending to bring me and Little Lailai to Golden Resplendence to celebrate the occasion so that we can forget our sorrows?”
“The two of you are really thinking too much into it…” Lin Jiage said as he took his phone back. He lazily leaned back on his chair before adding on, “… Isn’t the words that I have said earlier more than enough for you?”
Xia Shangzhou clutched his chest and squeezed out feebly from his mouth, “Boss, aren’t you just showing off to us?”
Lu Benlai rubbed his chest to soothe his heart as he agreed with Xia Shangzhou, “You aren’t healing us but whipping our battered corpses.”
Showing off? Whipping battered corpses?
Hearing those awful words, a furrow formed on Lin Jiage’s forehead as he asked, “You don’t think that the words I’ve just said are healing enough for you?”
He thought that such good news should be enough to put anyone in good mood… It should have parted the darkness in their hearts to shower resplending radiance before their eyes…
The perplexed Lin Jiage thought about the matter again and again before saying, “If that isn’t enough for you, I guess I can only continue healing you all. Earlier, when we were playing today, Yaoyao praised me. She said that I’m a handsome doper.”
Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai exchanged glances with one another before turning to look at Lin Jiage together. They blinked their eyes in confusion, “???”
Boss, are you sure that she was praising you?
Still drunk on the nickname s.h.i.+ Yao had given him, Lin Jiage didn’t notice the slight expression on the faces of the duo. There was a proud arch on his eyebrows as he spoke with a tone that looked almost as if a child showing his most precious treasure to his good friends, “Say, don’t you think that this nickname sound particularly impressive? Handsome doper… Is there a better nickname than that in the world?
“That’s not all. Yaoyao also praised my looks too. She said that she had never known what the word ‘handsome’ entails till she finally met me.”
After finis.h.i.+ng his piece, Lin Jiage looked at the two of them smugly as he asked, “How is it? Do you feel healed now?”
Xia Shangzhou shook his head and said, “I don’t know what your definition of healing is, but I do know that I feel like a livestock being butchered callously.”
Lu Benlai nodded in agreement as he said, “Same here too. I think like there might be some misunderstanding as to what healing means over here, but I feel like my corpse is being violated…”
“If that still isn’t enough for you, I guess I have no choice but to use my trump card then…” Before Lin Jiage even began speaking, an embarra.s.sed tinge had already colored his cheeks, and he said, “… Yaoyao said that I’m so handsome that it enrages the G.o.ds, and she’s so beautiful that all are jealous of her, so we’re both a match made in heaven…”
Lin Jiage paused for a moment over here. Even though what he said subsequently had all come from him, Soft Bun didn’t deny it, so it should be safe to a.s.sume that she shared the same sentiments as him. So, he added on, “… a fated couple, made to complement one another… Do you get it now? Yaoyao is trying to say how much we’re meant to be together…”
