The Correct Strategy to Approach the Yandere Supporting Male Lead - Chapter 19.2

Substitute Marriage (5) – “The newlyweds are giving out wedding candy, can I eat one too?” (2)

The red cover was lifted and Li Ruo Shui, who had been bored all morning, was finally able to see the light of day.

The relatives of the Zheng family looked at the two newlyweds in the hall and could not help but applaud and laugh.

“What a talented man and a beautiful woman!”

Li Ruo Shui hooked up a commercial fake smile, and when she turned her head she finally saw what the unlucky second son of the Zheng family looked like.

His face was delicate and harmless, his body was thin and his skin was pale, and it was obvious that he was not in good health.

When this Young Master Zheng captured Li Ruo Shui’s gaze, he only nodded his head in greeting and smiled gently, giving the impression that he was very quiet.

They were then taken by the maid to sit in the middle of the hall, where a tray of paper-wrapped crispy candies was placed in their hands respectively. The candies were piled up like a small mountain, waiting for them to finish handing them out one by one.

Li Ruo Shui sat there and when someone came, she gave a candy with a smile and casually said some random words of blessings.

She didn’t feel like a bride, but more like a shop assistant in a supermarket selling candies. When someone came to try it, she sold it with a smile.

A little girl ran up to her with her skirt up and cupped her hands.

Li Ruo Shui grabbed a few more for her and uttered those words under her expectant gaze.

“Study hard.”

As soon as the little girl heard that, she deflated her mouth and ran away.

Not only did Li Ruo Shui laugh, but Zheng Yan Qing, who had been absent-minded beside her, also laughed.

As the two laughed without saying anything, a flash of white slowly arrived in front of them.

Li Ruo Shui’s eyebrows jumped, and the look in Lu Zhi Yao’s eyes took on a bit of expectation.

Quickly say some sour words, say some sour words……

“The newlyweds are giving out wedding candy, can I eat one too?”

Lu Zhi Yao arched his eyebrows and held out his palm to her, the white jade Buddha beads on his wrist reflecting the red candles around him, tinged with some warm red colour.

Damn it. Was it really useless after all the suffering she had gone through before? Wasn’t there anything that touched his heart?

Li Ruo Shui sank into that slight disappointment, took a deep breath, and forgot to give out the candy.

Seeing this, Zheng Yan Qing immediately grabbed a handful of crispy candies and tried to put them in his hand but was dodged.

He raised his eyes to look at the man in white and inexplicably felt a slight chill.

Lu Zhi Yao didn’t seem to notice Zheng Yan Qing’s movement and continued to speak.

“Can’t you give me one?”

Only then did Li Ruo Shui come back to her senses and pour most of the plate for him, and then began to recite.

“I wish you……”

He didn’t seem to be very interested in academics, careers and love.

“I wish you can walk without a blind stick in the future, have someone to serve you food at dinner, and have someone to warm your bed when you sleep.”

That was what she had observed for so long, and she was also reminding him of one thing —

She had done all of these things, so hurry up and get attached to her, quickly fall in love with her, and let her go home earlier!

“Thanks a lot.”

Lu Zhi Yao pursed his lips and smiled, walking out of the hall with the small pile of crispy candies.

……

He still didn’t get her hints today.

Li Ruo Shui sighed and continued to be a relentless candy dispensing machine in the hall.

Lu Zhi Yao took the small pile of crispy candies back to his seat, completely unaware that Jiang Nian was looking at the candies in his arms with a sympathetic look.

With a smile on his lips, Lu Zhi Yao placed the candies on the table, peeled one open and ate it.

Sensing Jiang Nian’s gaze, he casually picked one: “Brother Jiang wants to eat this?”

Jiang Nian shook his head like a rattle, and then asked hesitantly.

“What are your thoughts on Li Ruo Shui’s marriage?”

Lu Zhi Yao was playing with the candy wrapper in his hands, his face still had that smile that made it impossible for people to tell his true thoughts.

“Thoughts? It’s just a marriage.”

Jiang Nian moved over, looking like a good student: “What does that mean?”

“Marriage is just about two people going through a ceremony, covering the fact that each of them is living their own lives separately.”

“……” Jiang Nian was silent for a moment: “Who told you that?”

“No one told me, I found it out on my own.”

Jiang Nian shook his head: “Only people who don’t love each other will do that.”

Lu Zhi Yao laughed out in a low voice: “Maybe.”

Just like his mother, just like his master, what was the point of becoming married when it was nothing more than pain when it was just torturing each other.

However, if she and Zheng Yan Qing were to torment each other and fight, according to his physique, he would most likely be beaten down by Li Ruo Shui, so he didn’t need to worry about it.

Jiang Nian got up and looked around, whispering, “Brother Lu, I’m going to find Fei Yue. We’re going to explore the Zheng Mansion today, so you eat first.”

Lu Zhi Yao nodded casually, not caring what they were going to do, and just leaned back in his chair, eating the crispy candies one by one.

“Blessings spread to all families, a hundred years of harmony, the bride enters the bridal chamber!”

The high tone came from the hall, the sound of blowing gongs and drums sounded again, and Li Ruo Shui was led to the bridal chamber.

He peeled the candy wrapper and suddenly felt inexplicably annoyed.
