The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush
Chapter 148: Wedding Bet the Finale.
Chapter 148
Jiang Yu ended up applying to Changwan University after all. He seemed to have quietly removed himself from everyone’s memories.
It was Yu Na who found him working at a café.
There, he had a part-time job.
During their conversation, Jiang Yu revealed that aside from this job, he was also giving basketball lessons to a child.
Jiang Yu was good at basketball, and the pay from that family happened to be quite high, enough for him to support himself.
Aside from supporting himself, he also set some of his earnings aside, planning to repay Xiao Chen all at once in the future.
When Yu Na mentioned this to Xiao Chen that night, Xiao Chen suddenly recalled something. "Oh right."
He took out a business card from the drawer. "Pass this to Jiang Yu."
"What's this?"
"A photographer friend of mine wants to do a shoot and is looking for talent. The pay is very high. I showed him Jiang Yu's photos and he was very satisfied. I had wanted to tell you about this a couple days ago but got busy and forgot. If you have time in the next few days, you can show this to him. It's much better than working at a cafe."
Yu Na recognized the name. This photographer was quite famous in the industry and had worked with many celebrities.
The next day, she hurried to the cafe again and passed the business card to Jiang Yu, saying he could contact the photographer if he was interested.
Jiang Yu accepted the card.
Yu Na was busy with wedding preparations these days and didn't have time to stay and chat. As she got up to leave, Jiang Yu suddenly called out to her, "Teacher Yu."
"Yes?" Yu Na turned back around.
Jiang Yu looked a little awkward, intentionally avoiding her gaze. But his tone was sincere, "Thank you."
Yu Na was in a good mood and patted him on the shoulder. "When you become a big star in the future, remember to treat me to a fancy meal. Otherwise..." She chuckled mischievously. "Be careful or I'll expose all the times you talked back to me in class. I'll have you become famous in the morning and chased out of the industry by the afternoon."
Jiang Yu: "..."
...
After taking care of all her students, it was finally time for Yu Na herself.
Although the wedding was handled by both sets of parents, she and Xiao Chen didn't need to worry about anything.
But Yu Na had her own small ideas. She didn't want Xiao Chen to see her in her wedding dress beforehand. She wanted him to see it for the first time at the wedding.
This was known as the "first look."
So whenever she went dress shopping, Yu Na always brought Lin Shuang with her.
Yu Na had a great figure and looks. She looked beautiful in any wedding dress.
During this time, Xiao Chen's parents and Yu Na's parents had all come to Changwan to prepare for the wedding.
The date was set for August 3rd, to be held in Luowei.
Luowei was where Yu Na and Xiao Chen first met and fell in love. Also, Luowei had a beautiful castle that was perfect for hosting a wedding.
The final custom-made wedding dress could not be seen by Xiao Chen beforehand. Even the bridal photoshoot used a different dress.
At the same time, Xiao Chen was with the man he feared most in his life—Yu Na's father.
The two men sat face-to-face in a tea house.
Yuna's father had a stern look. He wasn't one for sentimental words. In the end, he left with an imposing air and a threat: "If you ever make her cry, even once, I will make you pay."
Xiao Chen solemnly promised: "Dad, I will definitely treat Na Na well. If she cries, it will only be tears of joy."
Yuna's father sat with his arms crossed, looking at the young man's sincere expression. Eventually he nodded.
It wasn't that he didn't believe him. He did believe him. He just wanted to give his daughter some leverage before the wedding.
To let Xiao Chen know his daughter was not to be trifled with.
That night, Xiao Chen told Yu Na about what happened. They both laughed.
Yu Na said, "For life, the person you fear most is my dad. You definitely won't dare mistreat me in the future."
"Of course," Xiao Chen pinched her cheek. "But even without the threat, I would still treat you especially well."
Yu Na nestled her head against his broad chest. "I believe you."
"Then let me see a photo of you in your wedding dress."
"... "
Xiao Chen was dying to see a photo of Yu Na in that custom wedding dress. He tried every trick in the book to convince her, from pleading to threats, but she wouldn't even tell him the dress style, let alone show a photo.
...
August 3rd, Luowei, Sforza Castle.
Aside from close friends of Yu Na and Xiao Chen, some important relatives, the rest of the guests were industry elites.
The groomsmen, bridesmaids, and even the flower girls were big names.
A dedicated wedding photographer was present but photos were not allowed to circulate.
Xiao Chen arrived first, dressed in an expensive suit.
Yu Na arrived 20 minutes later, escorted in a wedding car.
Because they had not seen each other the previous day as per tradition, she was especially nervous now, though she didn't know what exactly she was nervous about.
Xiao Chen felt the same.
Though they couldn't meet, they had contacted each other on WeChat yesterday and made a bet.
Neither of them liked being overly emotional or crying in front of others. They always felt awkward about it and didn't know how to comfort each other.
So Yu Na suggested a bet—whoever cried first would lose.
The loser would have to grant the winner one request, no matter how unreasonable.
From the time Yu Na started getting her makeup done in the morning, she suppressed all her emotions.
...
Although Xiao Chen had prepared himself mentally, when the ceremony began and he saw Yuna's father walking Yu Na down the aisle, greeted by blessings from the guests, his emotions nearly spilled out in that instant.
It was his first time seeing Yu Na in her wedding dress. Elegant and beautiful, with crystals on her skirt sparkling under the lights, just like her, forever standing in the light.
From the moment Yu Na entered the castle, she also struggled to control her emotions.
Facing the well-wishes, surrounded by the romantic setting crafted just for her, it was like walking through a boundless sea of flowers.
Her love, the man she had liked since freshman year, was waiting for her arrival in that romantic floral sea.
They had thought crying at the wedding would be awkward, but after experiencing it themselves, realized it was just a normal expression of emotion.
Xiao Chen's eyes reddened but he desperately held back his tears.
When Yuna's father placed her hand into Xiao Chen's, he could no longer control himself.
As Yu Na came to stand before him and saw Xiao Chen's reddening eyes, she couldn't help but squeeze his hand to comfort him.
However, she mouthed: "You're about to lose."
Xiao Chen let the tears fall. "I concede defeat."
After exchanging vows and rings per the process, Xiao Chen's hands trembled as he slowly lifted Yu Na's veil.
With each bit he lifted, his heartbeat quickened.
Finally, the moment they both anticipated most arrived—the wedding kiss.
Xiao Chen lifted her veil and gently kissed her lips, the only softness amidst the grand ceremony.
"You've always said you really admired my life, right?"
"Mm."
"Now, I'm holding your hand and formally welcoming you into my life."
Yu Na had kept her emotions in check quite well, but hearing these words finally brought tears to her eyes.
That's right, she had entered into his life. A fairy tale-like, beautiful life, with speckled light, romantic floral seas, and his ardent love.
