Chapter 462 Puzzle

"You look very beautiful," Li Shanshan's eyes started to tear up as she eyed Lily. "Are you ready?" she asked.

"Of course, I am. Why are you crying?"

"I don't know." Li Shanshan said. "Zhou Jingren is coming and I will ask him to eat Wasabi before he could get you. I also prepared a really spicy sauce." In a traditional Chinese wedding, the groom will have to undergo some tests before he could get to the bride. This is where the groom has to haggle with the bride's friends so they will give him his beloved.

This is also where the funny games and test begins. In the end, the groom will give the bridesmaids some red packet that contains a certain amount of money.

"I also have some knives here. He has to hit the target three times before he would be able to pass me." Yang Mi said showing a set of knives to everyone. For the first time, Yang Mi showed a smug smile.

Li Shanshan and Lily eyed each other before they started laughing. Who would have thought that Yang Mi would have such a cute side?

"Well… that is exciting?" Lily said. She had full confidence that Zhou Jingren would be able to pass all this test and get her. She smiled at the woman next to her before she eyed the golden embroideries in her red gown.

"This is a very unusual wedding." Li Shanshan noted. "The tea ceremony is supposed to be after this. But.."

"I am already married. This is… just so I could experience the joy of being wed."

"I know…" Li Shanshan wiped away the tears in her eyes as she held Lily's hands. "Ah Li. I am so happy for you."

"If you keep on crying, your husband might think I bullied you," Lily said before she pulled Li Shanshan for a hug. "You are really ugly when you cry so…"

"How dare you!" Li Shanshan playfully slapped her arms. "I am not ugly."

"Oh wait… is that snot?"

"What? Where?" Li Shanshan immediately glared at Lily when she realized that she and Yang Mi are already laughing at her. She rolled her eyes before she eyed her vibrating phone. Li Shanshan immediately opened her phone and smiled. "They are downstairs." She uttered and stood. They are currently in a suite in one of the famous hotels in Hong Kong. "Now… you wait here."

Lily smiled while shaking her head. Her eyes sparkled with anticipation as she thought of seeing Zhou Jingren wearing his red suit.

........................

Li Shanshan immediately beamed at the sight of Zhou Jingren and his groomsmen. "Well? We prepared something for you." She clapped her hands and three women in a black suit arrived with plates on hand.

"Wasabi?" Fernando's face immediately contorted.

"Wasabi is not spicy." Yang Mi said, the smugness on her face didn't falter.

"Why is she smiling like that?" Secretary Go leaned towards Bei Tian. "Is she planning to kill us?" In response, Bei Tian elbowed him as he busily glared at Li Shanshan.

"Do you want us to eat Wasabi?" Zhou Jingren asked. He knows that not one of them likes the taste of wasabi. He swallowed his non-existent saliva and eyed the other plates. "What are those?"

"Sauce? We are so kind as to prepare some meat for you. Wagyu steak. But you have to finish both the Wasabi and the chili's on the plates. All of you!" Li Shanshan said. "After that, it is Yang Mi's turn!"

"What?" Fernando's eyes widened at the chili's then into the Wasabi. "But… what if we faint?"

"Can you believe them?" Li Shanshan ignored her husband's question and asked Yang Mi. "How cowardly. Who faints from having this delicious meal?"

"Well… if one of them faints then… there is no wedding!" Yang Mi beamed. "Alright. Thirty minutes. That should be enough?"

"You —" Secretary Go said, his face started to lose color. Before he cleared his throat. "Well… we have to do this… for the bride."

"Wasabi is actually not that bad compared to Lily's cooking," Fernando noted. Both Bei Tian and Secretary Go immediately nodded at his words. However, they quickly shook their heads when Zhou Jingren glared at them.

"Good! Now… time starts — now!" Li Shanshan's cheeks dimpled as she watched the four men started eating. Seeing their faces turned red, her eyes seemed to sparkle with glee.

After what seemed like forever, the four of them finished the food with no complaints. Their faces red, eyes watery as they glared at the giggling Li Shanshan.

"Next is… this throwing knife set!" Yang Mi excitedly said. She clapped her hands and the three women arrived with target boards. "You have to hit the center at least once or… you lose."

"All four of us?" Fernando asked.

"Yes!" Yang Mi knew that all four of these men were trained in martial arts and weapons. It should not be that hard for them to hit the target. As expected, Zhou Jingren quietly approached the knives and grabbed three. With no warnings, he throws the knife in all three targets.

"Whoa!" Li Shanshan said, her eyes wide. "He is good!" She nodded before she shouted on the second floor. "Good Job Ah Li!" Seeing this, Fernando immediately followed and once again hit the target.

"Ai… Yang Mi! They are good. You should have chosen something more difficult!" Li Shanshan grumbled as she watched both Bei Tian and Secretary Go hit the bull's eye of each target board.

"So we passed?" Zhou Jingren calmly smiled before he handed each of them red packets.

"Well… there is still the last test." Li Shanshan said.

"What test?"

"Well… that test is…"

"Me!" Everyone lifted their heads to see Qin Yuanfeng on the stairs. He was calmly walking towards them, a large box was in his arms.

"I thought it's only the bride's friends that will stop us?" Fernando immediately asked Zhou Jingren.

"He is her twin brother." Zhou Jingren said. He does not have any knowledge about Qin Yuanfeng being here. However, when Lily told her that he won't be joining his groomsmen, he already had a hunch that this will happen.

"Is that some computer? You know that we are not hackers, right?" Bei Tian asked warily. If this man would tell them to hack a software, he was sure that they are screwed.

"No." Qin Yuanfeng shook his head as he opened the box. "It's a five hundred pieces jigsaw puzzle. Just Zhou Jingren and me. If he finish first, he wins."

"What kind of puzzle is that!?"

"Really? I didn't know that a puzzle like that exists!" Both Bei Tian and Fernando said at the same time. They then shifted their gaze at Zhou Jingren.

"Oi, Yuanfeng! Are you crazy? This is too difficult, ah!" Bei Tian complained. "There is no way that a normal human can solve this in one day! Do you think Lily will like it if her wedding won't happen today?"

"She gave me her approval." Qin Yuanfeng answered as he laid the puzzle on the table.

"But… it will take some time! This is impossible! Who could solve this puzzle without cheating?"

"Less average people can't. Me and Jingren are not less than average."

"Is he trying to insult us?"

"He is trying to insult you." Secretary Go butted in.

"Alright… I'm ready when you are." Qin Yuanfeng interrupted the banter as he smiled at Zhou Jingren.
