Addicted: Book Two - The Raging Flames of Passion

Chapter 99 - Discussing, details of the wedding

There was not a sound from Gu Hai after that.

Bai Luo Yin then gave him a glance, "Don't pout your lips. It's useless no matter how much you pout them!"

With no other choice, Gu Hai could only turn his attention to the topics at hand.

As for Bai Luo Yin, he remained stern on how 'escorting the groom' should be handled by him.

This time, Gu Hai changed his tone of speech. "You actually think that 'escorting the bride'[2] is a good thing? As a groom, one has to endure all kinds of adversaries. Things like giving out red envelopes are fine and all, but what if they make you do awkward and embarrassing things? How degrading would that be for you as a military officer! These types of dirty and tiring job should be left for me. Since I'm used to being shameless, I can definitely endure even the most despicable demands."

"Bullshit!" Bai Luo Yin did not listen to his deceit, "Don't give me that 'I'm doing this for your own good' type of speech. My psychological endurance is quite strong! You should be worrying about yourself! You want to escort me? I'll surrender to you if you can find three men on your side! An army of all-around women- have you ever heard of a groom having to be accompanied by a horde of bridesmaids to escort the bride?"

"That is what you don't understand." Gu Hai was hanging onto a piece of string as he refused to back down. "Think about it, is it easier to create difficulties for the bridesmaids or the groomsmen? Of course, it's the groomsmen! If I bring a group of beautiful women to escort you, the soldiers from your end will obediently open the door. However, if you were to come and escort me instead, the bridesmaids on my side will surely take you down and make you suffer without relenting. Those soldiers won't be able to deal with these women, and if you don't get it right, you might not be able to escort me away."

Bai Luo Yin waved his hand, "If I can't even escort you away, then I don't want you. Whoever want you, can have you."

"What did you say?" Gu Hai poked Bai Luo Yin's waist angrily.

Bai Luo Yin laughed as he tried to avoid him. The two fooled around for a while before they finally stopped and decided to let luck decide on the victor for them.

"Rock - paper - scissors!"

At the first round, both showed rock while for the second round, Gu Hai continued on with rock only to be sourly met with Bai Luo Yin's paper.

As a result, Bai Luo Yin shouted and jumped for joy.

"Best two out of three!" Gu Hai acted shamelessly.

Fine, then let it be best two out of three. Bai Luo Yin still won when he showed his hand.

Raising his thick brows, Gu Hai persisted. "Best three out of five!"

"Fuck off!" Bai Luo Yin became enraged, "How shameless can you be?"

Gu Hai bashfully moved in closer before he held Bai Luo Yin's hands and pleaded in a nice manner. "How about this, let's not distinguish who is marrying whom, we can each take turn to escort one another. What do you think?"

Once Gu Hai put it that way, Bai Luo Yin thought about it very seriously. Asking Gu Hai to be the bride and wait for me to escort him is unrealistic-to put it bluntly. After all, his status and family background are pretty good... even better than mine. There is no reason for him to marry into my family. But at the same time, asking Bai Luo Yin to marry into the other family will not make him happy either, no man would be happy honestly.

"Alright, let's do it that way."

Having settled that matter, the two high-fived and checked that off their list of things to do.
