I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 425 My family, aren't they your family too?

"We...we do know each other, but we've only met once. She seems like a very nice girl. When I first met her, she seemed quite honest."

Yin Mengran thought of the girl she had met before. Although her memory of her was hazy, she still had a good impression of her.

"Why didn't her family come?"

Teacher Wang was also quite puzzled. It seemed that she hadn't seen any of her family members. She had seen Kong Yue's parents, but not Yu Jingwan's parents. This made people very curious about what was going on.

"this..."

Yin Mengran didn't know how to start the conversation. She had heard the reason before, from what Zhou Heng had told her, and learned about the girl's background.

After hearing this, I felt very sorry for her. I didn't expect her to be so pitiful; she also had no parents...

Fortunately, she met Zhou Heng, while she met Kong Yue.

Kong Yue must have treated her very well, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten married.

So Yin Mengran felt it was better not to say it; saying it was a bit inappropriate...

"Perhaps... they have some unique customs, I'm not sure."

"Really?" Teacher Wang didn't press further, looking at the photos of the bride and groom appearing on the big screen.

Especially when staring at Yu Jingwan's photo, I saw that this girl did indeed look very honest.

She looks very happy in the photo, with a sweet smile.

"I'll go give my gift first."

Zhou Heng took out two red envelopes from his pocket, stood up, and prepared to give the monetary gift. These were for him and Yin Mengran.

Although it wasn't much money for the two of them, it was still the thickest red envelope they received at the event.

Tang Zhi and Yu Lingxue also took out the money they had prepared as gifts and followed behind Zhou Heng to give their gifts.

At this moment, on the wedding car heading to the hotel

Kong Yue sat in the back, dressed in a suit and sporting a stylish haircut. Today was probably the most handsome day of his life.

He was gazing out the window, looking somewhat lost. Today was his joyous day.

Logically, he should be overjoyed, but instead, he was completely bewildered.

It was as if they hadn't even realized that they were actually getting married one day.

While he was still silent and lost in thought, a hand was placed on his hand.

Kong Yue turned his head and looked at his bride beside him.

Yu Jingwan looked stunning in her red wedding dress; her exquisite makeup perfectly complemented her气质 (qi zhi - inherent quality/temperament).

She was just an ordinary girl, but today she is the most beautiful.

Yu Jingwan looked at Kong Yue with a slight smile. She was genuinely happy today, and a smile remained on her face the entire time.

However, she could also sense that Kong Yue's reaction was a little different from her own; it was as if he hadn't quite caught on.

So she was also a little worried, wondering if Kong Yue would regret marrying her...

Over the years, Kong Yue has instilled a lot of confidence in her, helping her gradually overcome her inferiority complex.

They always stayed together. When Kong Yue went to school, she would rent a house near Kong Yue's school and live with him.

She took meticulous care of him, and Kong Yue didn't let her down; he proposed to her and wanted to marry her.

She still remembers the night of the proposal; she cried her eyes out.

"Honey, will you regret marrying me?"

Yu Jingwan took Kong Yue's hand and asked softly beside him.

Kong Yue paused for a moment, then smiled, took Yu Jingwan's hand, and said:

"Of course not! Marrying you is the happiest thing that has ever happened to me. How could I regret it..."

"I just..."

Kong Yue looked out the window and whispered, "I just never imagined I'd have a wedding day. Before... I never even thought I'd have a girlfriend..."

"I was disliked and isolated in class. Nobody wanted to play with me, and girls would keep their distance whenever I got close..."

He felt a pang of sadness when he thought back to his school days, but he was carefree and didn't care about such things back then.

They've taken shamelessness to the extreme; even if people dislike them, they still act nonchalantly.

Yu Jingwan had heard about Kong Yue's past, and every time she heard about it, she felt sorry for him and thought he shouldn't have been treated that way...

"They went too far, I know that perfectly well, honey, you're such a good person..."

"Yes, it's because I met you that I made changes, and my thinking gradually matured and I became more responsible. Looking back now, I was really annoying before, and I can't blame others for isolating me."

Kong Yue knew very well that it was after meeting Yu Jingwan that he was determined to give her a good life, to be responsible for her, and to cherish such a wonderful girl.

So I made changes to myself, became much more mature, and was no longer so childish and annoying.

"However, in my high school class at the time, there were only two people who didn't see me as such an annoying person, who didn't isolate me, and who didn't look down on me..."

Kong Yue suddenly changed the subject, remembering that there were still people who didn't look down on him when he was in high school.

"who is that?"

"One is our class monitor, Yin Mengran. As class monitor, she's very popular and takes care of every classmate. Everyone likes her, and she's always willing to help others. She doesn't discriminate against me at all..."

"There's another one, the one I often mention to you, Brother Zhou, Zhou Heng. He and Yin Mengran are a couple, and he doesn't look at me with that kind of disdainful look, nor does he keep his distance from me. Even though we had a small conflict before, he still treats me as a friend. When I invited him over, I didn't really have high expectations, as he must be very busy, but he still gave me face and agreed to come."

In Kong Yue's mind, during high school, only these two people were truly good to him; they treated him like a human being. Many others didn't treat him like one at all...

"Maybe they've already arrived."

"Yes, I hope they won't be in such a hurry to leave."

Kong Yue nodded and said with a smile.

He still wanted to have a good drink with Zhou Heng; after all, it had been a long time since they'd seen each other. He knew Zhou Heng's identity was now extraordinary, and he possessed considerable abilities.

He wanted to arrive early to arrange good seats for Zhou Heng and the others, but he knew Zhou Heng would refuse; he certainly didn't want to be treated specially...

Yu Jingwan murmured worriedly, "Do you think...a lot of people will gossip...saying that I didn't have any family members present..."

"How not?"

Kong Yue gripped Yu Jingwan's hand tightly, looked at her face, and retorted.

"Ok?"

Kong Yue smiled slightly, gazing at her with doting eyes, and slowly said:

"Aren't my family members your family too?"
