Chapter 145: Wedding Day (3)

After some time passed, the MC announced it was finally the time for the married couple to dance together. Everyone dispersed from the main floor to give the couple some room. Li Caiyi was so nervous her hand became clammy.

"Relax. Don't look at anyone else. Just look at me. That way, you feel less nervous," Meng Renshu whispered beside her ears, making Li Caiyi's cheek heated up. She felt even more nervous now!

Meng Renshu put his hand on her waist, and his other hand was holding her hand. 

Li Caiyi was not that knowledgeable about dancing, but she learned it a bit once. It was awkward at first, but her movement gradually became more relaxed.

Meng Renshu led her flawlessly. Thanks to him, her body moved naturally throughout the song, and his cool hand felt so soothing. 

Li Caiyi looked up, and her eyes met with Meng Renshu's beautiful one. The sight mesmerized her, and she felt like a princess in a fairy-tale right now. Among all women in the world, she was able to get married to her dream prince. How lucky she could be?

"How is it? It's not so scary anymore, right?" Meng Renshu smiled while looking down at her.

"Yesh… I-I mean, yes!" 

"Haha, you got tongue-tied. It seems you are still a little nervous, after all."

Li Caiyi did feel nervous, but not for the reason he had in mind. There was no way she could tell him that, though.

They spun a few times after that, following the beat of the music. Li Caiyi was very careful not to step on his foot and make a fool out of herself, but she would occasionally sneak a peek at her dance partner's face just so she could etch this happy moment in her memory forever.

However, instead of his usual smile, Li Caiyi was greeted with a stiff look on his face this time. She noticed he seemed to stare at something out of the corner of his eyes, so she carefully followed his line of sight.

At the end of his gaze, Li Chunhua stood by herself with a bitter smile on her face. 

It immediately awakened Li Caiyi from her dreamland. 

For her, this sight was probably the most beautiful scene she had ever seen in her life, but how about Meng Renshu and Li Chunhua? She bet her sister must feel devastated right now, watching his beloved getting married and dancing with another woman. No matter how much she put on a tough front, Li Chunhua was a regular woman and not immune to this.

Meng Renshu also visibly looked distracted after that. His perfect sense of rhythm was disturbed, and their dance was out of sync a few times. He kept trying to steal a glance at Li Chunhua without making it obvious, but with a lousy dance partner like Li Caiyi, there was no way he could maintain his previous excellent pace anymore.

Li Caiyi stared at Meng Renshu's face for the last time before a small smile appeared on her lips. 

"Brother Renshu, my feet feel a bit hurt."

Meng Renshu, who was distracted a moment ago, finally regained her focus when he heard that. "Are you okay? Probably because you wore heels and stood for a long time."

"Yes. Would it be a problem if we stop dancing now?"

He shook his head. "No. Your well-being is more important. Shall we stop now?"

Li Caiyi nodded, so Meng Renshu waved his hand slightly to give a signal to the MC. The quick-witted MC caught his indirect order and immediately announced the next agenda. At the same time, Meng Renshu led Li Caiyi out of the main floor.

"Do you need me to call for someone?" Meng Renshu asked worriedly.

"No need. I'm sure I will get better after some rest, so can I take a rest for a bit in the other room first? I promise I will be back before the next agenda," Li Caiyi smiled.

"Good idea. Let me take you there."

Li Caiyi shook her head. "No need. Brother Renshu, you can stay here and talk with other guests. It would be bad if the bride and groom were gone for a long time. One of us should stay."

Meng Renshu thought for a bit before he nodded his head. "You're right. Be careful on your way, don't hurt yourself."

"Yes." Li Caiyi smiled. "In the meantime, you should also go talk to Xiaohua."

Meng Renshu was stunned for a moment. Then he shook his head with a forlorn look on his face. "I shouldn't."

"But you want to talk to her, right?" 

"Even so, how can I face her in my current situation? I have failed her." Meng Renshu said sadly.

"All more reason for you to talk to her. If you let this day end without saying anything to her, I have a feeling you will regret it later."

Meng Renshu was silent, but Li Caiyi could see something flickered inside his eyes. He only needed one more push.

She flashed the biggest smile she could muster as she pushed him from the back in the literal meaning. "Less worrying and act more! Don't think too much and just do it!"

Meng Renshu looked back at Li Caiyi, and his expression gradually changed into a determined one. "I will try talking to her. I can't just leave her like this, after all."

Li Caiyi nodded her head firmly. "En, I know. Go quickly, Xiaohua must have been waiting for you."

"Then I'll see you later." Meng Renshu said before he walked briskly toward Li Chunhua. His unsure steps eventually became faster and faster, and he didn't look back even once.

Li Caiyi's smile slowly faded as the delayed pain assaulted her. She turned around and walked out of the room while holding his skirt. 

She entered a VIP room in the back of the wedding hall, which had been transformed into a bride waiting room, and plopped herself down on the couch. There was nobody but her in the room right now because everyone was enjoying themselves in the hall. 

"Does every wedding always feel this exhausting?" Li Caiyi muttered as she gave her shoulder a massage. 

Actually, her feet didn't hurt at all. However, the pain she felt as she witnessed Meng Renshu's heart-wrenching face from up close was akin to slicing her heart. How could she bear to force him to continue doing something that would hurt him?

She felt like a hypocrite because she hoped that Meng Renshu wouldn't leave her for a second back there. Once that thought surfaced, she felt so ashamed and angry at herself.

"They are in love with each other, so it shouldn't be surprising anymore." Li Caiyi convinced herself, but the sourness in her heart couldn't be suppressed. "Stupid Li Caiyi. You are the one who told him to go, so what are you feeling disappointed about? Both of them have a harder time than you. Stop being so selfish."

Li Caiyi leaned her back against the backrest and covered her eyes with her arms. 

After resting for a good twenty minutes, she returned to the wedding hall and found Meng Renshu with a gloomier expression on his face. He was so out of it he didn't even notice Li Caiyi's arrival. She could tell immediately that their talk didn't work out. 

The wedding ended in such a heavy mood between the involved parties.. It left an unpleasant taste in the bride and groom's tongue and was an unforgettable wedding in many ways.
