Chapter 201 Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing's Wedding (2)
Since Shen Yao has said that, what can Gu Jinxing do?
Of course, we have no choice but to comply.
Gu Jinxing looked at Lu Hanyi beside him but didn't say anything.
It means: Teach me quickly.
Lu Hanyi suppressed a laugh.
"Brother Xing, shall I sing a line, and you sing a line?"
Gu Jinxing nodded.
Lu Hanyi, on the other hand, was not intimidated at all and spoke fluently without hesitation.
"If you patiently wait for the day when you finally meet the love of your life..."
Although Gu Jinxing couldn't sing, he still had basic appreciation skills. As soon as he heard Lu Hanyi's tune, he felt that something was wrong, but he had never heard the song before, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and sing along.
"If you patiently wait for the day when you finally meet the love of your life..."
While Lu Hanyi was singing, Ye Ningshuang and her bridesmaids were already trying hard to hold back their laughter.
When Gu Jinxing sang the line that sounded like it was from outer space, everyone completely lost their composure and turned around to burst out laughing.
Shen Yao had never heard this song before, but judging from Ye Ningshuang and the others, she knew they must have sung it wrong.
Shen Yao asked with a smile, "Didn't you say your Lu Hanyi can sing?"
Ye Ningshuang covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "I didn't know he would react like this after changing the song."
Ignoring the people laughing, Lu Hanyi continued singing another line.
"Who cares that our relationship keeps encountering unexpected events?"
Gu Jinxing, however, did not follow and spoke to Shen Yao.
“Singing one line is still singing, but singing too much will pollute your ears. Please, ladies, let us pass.”
Listen to that tone, it's like a plea.
Cai Xinyi thought to herself that she had never seen her cousin speak to anyone like that before, let alone to girls like them.
Sure enough, only by siding with his cousin's wife can he turn the tables and become the master of the house.
Cai Xinyi boldly said.
“That won’t do; singing just one line won’t be sincere.”
Shen Yao reached out and put her hand on Cai Xinyi's shoulder, showing her support for what she had said.
"Did you hear that? If you're not sincere, you can forget about getting in."
Liang Muchao stepped forward and gave the bridesmaids and her friends several more stacks of red envelopes.
"Although the singing is not pleasant to listen to, there are plenty of red envelopes. Please be kind, ladies."
"I'll accept the red envelope, but I'll still block the door."
"Find a different instructor and start over."
Gu Jinxing remained silent for a minute or two before asking.
"Can I sing nursery rhymes by myself?"
Can you imagine Gu Jinxing, with his aloof and serious demeanor, singing a children's song?
No.
The bridesmaids had reached a consensus.
Even Liang Muchao and Lu Hanyi, who were standing next to Gu Jinxing, showed expressions of surprise.
Shen Yao smiled and said, "It's not impossible, you can sing."
Cai Xinyi hid behind Shen Yao and loudly requested a song, "Singing children's songs is fine, but how about 'The He Family's Rooster, The He Family's Guessing Game,' which we all know?"
Ye Ningshuang chimed in, "That's good. All the kids in Hong Kong can do it. I won't make it difficult for you."
Gu Jinxing mentally prepared himself, his expression growing colder.
After a minute or two, he began to sing under the expectant gazes of the crowd.
"How bizarre and interesting... Brother Monkey, Mr. Bear, Sister Squirrel, Uncle Cow..."
"He sang very well! I'm twenty years old, and this is the first time I've heard my brother sing a children's song. It was worth it."
Liang Muchao laughed so hard he could barely stand while Gu Jinxing was singing that he clung to Lu Hanyi, clutching his stomach.
But after Gu Jinxing finished singing, he still remembered to cheer loudly.
Both of them were trying their best to hold back their laughter.
Shen Yao clung to Cai Xinyi, who chuckled and whispered to her, "My cousin has always been very serious. I didn't even know he knew nursery rhymes. I don't know when he secretly learned them."
“He might have cried when he was a child and even threatened the nanny not to tell anyone.”
"Then, I need a nanny to sing nursery rhymes to lull me to sleep."
Shen Yao was already laughing heartily, and upon hearing Cai Xinyi's words, she laughed even harder, leaning on Cai Xinyi's shoulder.
Ye Ningshuang said with a smile, "I hope I can sing like this to soothe the baby in the future, and take on all the tasks of putting the baby to sleep."
Gu Jinxing actually nodded, "Okay, I will."
Ye Ningshuang gave Gu Jinxing a thumbs up, "I've approved it for you. Come in and see your beautiful bride."
Not easy.
We finally got through those eighteen hurdles.
Gu Jinxing straightened his tie before striding into the new house.
Shen Wancheng was in the new room when she heard continuous laughter outside, so she got out of bed and put her ear to the door to eavesdrop.
She also heard Gu Jinxing singing a children's song, and she couldn't suppress the upward curve of her lips.
The groom's meeting with the bride isn't the end of the story; he also needs to undergo a challenge of tacit understanding in love and find the wedding shoes.
Shen Wancheng didn't pay much attention to the final part about finding the wedding shoes, but she was quite nervous about the challenge of tacit understanding in love.
If Shen Wancheng put herself in Gu Jinxing's shoes, she would know absolutely nothing if asked about Gu Jinxing's hobbies and habits.
Moreover, Shen Yao and Ye Ningshuang prepared these tests in the two days prior without telling Shen Wancheng, so Shen Wancheng didn't know what Shen Yao would ask.
The final result of the test of tacit understanding surprised Shen Wancheng greatly.
Although Gu Jinxing wasn't exactly fluent in answering all the questions, he answered about 80-90% of the questions about Shen Wancheng correctly.
Shen Yao reluctantly said that it was just so-so, barely meeting the standard.
Shen Wancheng, however, felt that this was a perfect score.
She knew very well what the actual situation was between her and Gu Jinxing. At first, it was just about cooperation, but after spending more than a month together, Shen Wancheng felt Gu Jinxing's sincerity and affection for her. Shen Wancheng herself also had feelings for Gu Jinxing.
But Shen Wancheng thought that her feelings for Gu Jinxing were still very lukewarm, and could not be described as love.
However, Gu Jinxing's understanding of her today touched her heart again, making her realize that Gu Jinxing's feelings for her were not simply good or affectionate.
And she seemed to be happy about it after realizing this.
Shen Wancheng sat on the bed, watching Gu Jinxing let Shen Yao and the others do whatever they wanted, cooperating with all their requests.
A sweet feeling lingered in my heart.
After the test, the process of finding the wedding shoes went exactly as Shen Wancheng had predicted. Gu Jinxing saw through Shen Yao and the others' little trick at a glance, and they found both shoes in less than two minutes.
But Shen Yao jumped out again during the part where the groom was putting shoes on the bride.
"You can't just take my sister away like this, I don't agree."
Liang Muchao chuckled and sighed, "Little sister-in-law, is there anything else you want? You're driving us crazy."
"Hmph, didn't you know she wasn't someone you could easily marry before you married my sister? Anyway, you're not letting her leave until you clear all the levels today."
Holding the wedding shoes in his hand, Gu Jinxing first looked at Shen Wancheng with deep affection before speaking to Shen Yao.
"What other tests are there? I'm determined to pass them all."
Ye Ningshuang then took out a card and a pen.
"Please have the groom write down three promises to the bride, sign them, and read them aloud in public."
Gu Jinxing readily agreed, "Okay."
Gu Jinxing took the card and paper and pen, then knelt on one knee in front of Shen Wancheng, placing the card on the bed to write a promise.
Shen Wancheng looked down at Gu Jinxing, who was intently looking at the card. He had pondered over each promise for a while before writing it down.
It makes one inexplicably believe that this is a solemn promise made by Gu Jinxing after careful consideration, rather than a perfunctory formality.
