Chi Jinze announced in front of all his friends that he was severing all ties with Sophia. Sophia's reputation was ruined, and she became the target of everyone's criticism, ultimately paying the price for her actions.
Chi Jinze held Yu Wan's hand, their fingers intertwined. They exchanged smiles filled with happiness and determination, knowing that the road ahead would be long, but they would walk it together, never to part.
Lu Ningyan patted Chi Jinze on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Well done, brother! I knew you would make the right choice." He turned to Yu Wan, his eyes full of blessings. "Yu Wan, congratulations on finding your happiness."
Yu Wan forced a smile and nodded gently. Chi Jinze's actions touched her, but a hint of unease lingered in her heart. She knew Sophia would not let this go easily, and Chi Jinze's past weighed heavily on her mind.
Noticing Yu Wan's unease, Chi Jinze held her a little tighter and leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "Wanwan, I know you have many questions right now. I will give you an explanation—one that will satisfy you." His tone was gentle yet firm, as if making a promise.
Yu Wan looked up into Chi Jinze's deep eyes, which were filled with sincerity and love, as if they could dispel all the shadows in her heart. She nodded lightly, choosing to trust him.
In the following days, Chi Jinze canceled all his work to focus on accompanying Yu Wan. He took her to amusement parks where they rode roller coasters and merry-go-rounds, playing carefree like children; he took her to the beach for strolls along the shore, watching sunrises and sunsets while feeling the vastness and tranquility of the sea; he even cooked for her, preparing various delicious dishes filled with love.
With Chi Jinze by her side, Yu Wan gradually began to smile again as her unease slowly faded away. She started to believe that Chi Jinze truly loved her and was willing to give everything for her.
On a night when the moon was bright and stars were few, Chi Jinze carefully arranged a romantic proposal ceremony. He brought Yu Wan to a meadow filled with blooming flowers, where heart-shaped candles were placed on the grass, and rose petals formed a path leading to happiness.
Chi Jinze knelt on one knee and pulled out an exquisite box from his pocket. Opening it revealed a dazzling diamond ring lying inside, radiating brilliant light.
"Wanwan, marry me! I will spend my life loving you and cherishing you, making you the happiest woman in the world." Chi Jinze's voice was gentle and heartfelt, with tears glistening in his eyes.
Yu Wan could no longer hold back her tears, which slowly streamed down her cheeks. She covered her mouth, unable to speak from the overwhelming emotion, and could only nod repeatedly.
Chi Jinze stood up, gently placed the ring on Yu Wan's finger, and then pulled her tightly into his embrace.
On the day of the wedding, Chi Jinze invited all their friends and family to witness their happiness together. The church was filled with guests, adorned with flowers, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.
Yu Wan, dressed in a pure white wedding gown, walked slowly towards Chi Jinze, holding onto her father's arm. A joyful smile lit up her face, though tears glistened at the corners of her eyes.
Chi Jinze gazed at Yu Wan with deep affection, slowly extending his hand to take hers as they walked together toward the sacred altar of marriage.
In the presence of the priest, they exchanged rings and made lifelong promises.
"I do."
"I do."
Their voices were firm and powerful, echoing throughout the church.
In the distance, Sophia stood alone in a corner, watching everything unfold with eyes full of regret and loneliness. She knew she had lost—completely. She had lost love and friendship.
Sophia slowly turned and left the church, disappearing into the crowd.
