Chapter 596 - Wedding night (1/2)
When the wedding ended, the guests started to leave.
However, Lu Meili's friends had drunk quite a bit and wanted to have more fun. As the groom wanted to enter the bridal room, the bunch of girls blocked his path.
”I'm sorry young master Mu. If you want to enter this room, you will have to hand us red packets and pass our test.” Lu Xian Li spoke, her expression proud like she had an invaluable treasure in her possession.
”That's right.” Small Xixi went along. It's not going to be easy to take my Sis Meili away.
”Agreed.” Katy was here too.
Mu Zhichen took a look at the bunch of girls, including Lu Xian Li, Shen Yue, Small Xixi, Katy and a few of their friends.
He understood what they were playing at, but accomodated them because it was his big day.
He called his assistant and asked him to bring red packets for all the girls.
The girls were amazed by the generous amounts and grinned happily.
”Before the test, you have to do a task first.” Shen Yue said. ”We cannot skip this.”
”Okay. What's the task?”
”Do ten push ups... shirtless.”
”Eh?!”
Let alone Mu Zhichen, even the girls were shocked. She was asking the groom to strip and do push ups?
Mu Zhichen racked his brains. He couldn't possibly do that. But thinking about it, it was exactly why Shen Yue gave such a task.
In the next moment, he grabbed one of the groomsmen who was just passing by and minding his own business.
”What is it?”
”Take off your shirt and do ten push ups.” Mu Zhichen said, his tone allowing no room for negotiation.
The poor groomsman was confused. What was this all about?
”I'll owe you.” Mu Zhichen said, making the man quickly strip of his shirt and do push ups.
They were on an island. No one would mind him anyway.
As he did his push ups, he thought he felt a particular scorching gaze on him or to be exact, on his chest.
He looked up just in time to see a pair of eyes look away quickly. He laughed and went on.
Only when he was done did Shen Yue snap from her daze. ”Hey! I said do ten push ups shirtless, not drag a friend to do them.”
Mu Zhichen smiled slyly. ”You only said to do push ups. You didn't say they were exclusive for me.”
He was forcing logic, but Shen Yue couldn't do anything about it.
Besides, the girls felt it was candy to their eyes and didn't want to waste the groomsman's effort.
”Fine. You pass.”
And now for the test.
Mu Zhichen knew that this kind of test wouldn't possibly be won by him on his own so he dragged more of his friends to help him out.
Lu Xian Li coughed when she saw the new group of men. ”Ahem... each of us is going to ask you a question. If you pass, you go to the next. If you fail any question, the test starts all over.”
”What?”
”You're kidding, right?” Mu Zhichen's friends couldn't believe they had been dragged into this. It was going to be impossible to win against girls!
Small Xixi rolled her eyes at their shock. ”What's wrong? The woman inside that room is the nation's little beauty and you want to have her to yourself. Do you think it's supposed to be easy?”
The men were speechless.
Fine, she made sense.
”Bring it on.”
Katy was first. ”If you didn't marry Lu Meili today, who would you marry?”
Mu Zhichen was rendered speechless. What was the difference between this and asking him to strip and do push ups?
Katy predicted an answer and crossed her arms. ”I will not take 'no one' for an answer. I don't believe you would remain single forever.”
Mu Zhichen didn't need to think too much about this. ”Meili and I got married, there is no such thing as 'if'. We are destined to be together and that's it. Even in our next lifetime, we can only belong to each other.”
Katy was speechless. Couldn't you answer that without force-feeding us dog food?
The other girls proceeded to ask questions, but because they didn't know Lu Meili that well, their questions were easy to find answers to.
”Who is Meili's closest cousin?” Small Xixi asked. ”You have to get this one right on the first try.”
Of course if it wasn't restricted, he could simply guess the names of everyone in the Lu and Lin families.
”Lu Shihan.”
Mu Zhichen wasn't the one who answered, Lu Xian Yu did. He had just joined the group for fun and didn't expect to be of use.
His action earned a glare from his second sister. ”Xian Yu, shouldn't you be on our side?”
He shrugged his shoudlers. He was on his eldest sister's side, and his eldest sister wanted to have fun with the groom.
”At what age did Lu Meili debut?”
