I finally agreed to Xu Jiasheng's proposal.
That day, Xu Jiasheng got himself drunk and cried in my arms.
He told me he liked me and wanted to marry me.
He said he had liked me since the first time we met.
He thought that as long as I was happy, everything would be fine, but I was suffering because of He Li Yan's infidelity.
He wanted to give me a home.
I thought about it and realized he had a point.
He had given me a beautiful love, a happy family, and a lovely child.
I had to give him a title.
So I accepted his proposal.
On the day of the wedding, I received a message from an unknown number—
"Congratulations! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness."
I suspected this message was from He Li Yan.
After all, he was my ex-husband.
Although we hadn't been in touch since our divorce, I knew he had been keeping an eye on me.
After all, I used to be his wife.
We were married for six years.
Once deeply in love.
I once thought we would grow old together.
But now it seems we have both changed.
He Li Yan cheated, and I betrayed our marriage as well.
Although we ended things amicably, the feelings between us have vanished completely.
We haven't been in touch for years, and this text message is likely the last one I will receive from He Li Yan.
I did not reply to the message.
Instead, I continued preparing for the wedding.
Yet my mood felt heavy.
He Li Yan appeared outside the church.
He stood at the door, watching me from a distance.
His gaze held a hint of complexity.
I glanced at him and then looked away.
I didn't want to see He Li Yan at my wedding.
After all, we were divorced now.
We should each find our own happiness.
But He Li Yan still came.
I didn't know what he wanted, but I didn't want any contact with him anymore.
The wedding proceeded as planned.
Xu Jiasheng held my hand and solemnly declared, "I do."
My eyes brimmed with tears as I softly replied, "I do."
Thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the crowd below.
Amidst the blessings of those around us, Xu Jiasheng and I shared a kiss.
He Li Yan stood outside the door, quietly observing the scene.
A complex expression flickered in his eyes as he managed a bitter smile. "Li Li..."
He clenched his fists, pain flashing across his face. "Congratulations..."
He Li Yan left the church and drove aimlessly down the road.
His gaze was unfocused, his mind restless.
He didn't notice the red light ahead or the large truck approaching from the intersection.
By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late.
The truck collided violently with his car!
He Li Yan was thrown from his seat!
In mid-air, he traced a graceful arc before crashing heavily to the ground.
Blood streamed down from his forehead, blurring his vision.
He closed his eyes, and memories from the past seemed to echo in his ears—
"Li Li, will you marry me?"
"I am willing," Wen Li replied with a smile.
"Li Li, let's go get our marriage certificate today."
"Okay," Wen Li nodded with a smile.
"Li Li, let's hold our wedding today."
"Okay," Wen Li answered with a smile.
"Li Li..." He Li Yan's voice choked, pain flickering in his eyes. "I'm sorry..."
"He Li Yan, goodbye." Wen Li smiled as she bid farewell and turned to leave.
He Li Yan collapsed to the ground, blood blurring his vision.
He closed his eyes, his consciousness gradually fading away.
In a daze, he seemed to return to that day many years ago—
The day he married Wen Li.
Wen Li wore a pure white wedding dress, smiling as she married him.
