Li Lanying laughed at the reaction of both children, “Do you take us as conservative old-timers? You’ve met each other’s parents and are about to get your marriage license. If we still separated both of you, it wouldn’t be our place to do so. Besides, don’t you share a bed when you’re in B City?”
Her bluntness made Wei Zilin blush slightly.
Xu Qingrui joined in the teasing with a slight smile, “I don’t really want to see an extra person in the living room when I get up at midnight to use the washroom.”
Wei Zilin, “…”
Even though Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying were okay with it, Wei Zilin still felt a little uneasy when he got into the room with Xu Moyan.
When night fell and they got into bed, Wei Zilin laid there respectfully without getting all over Xu Moyan.
Xu Moyan turned to look at him. She did not bother asking why he was being so good tonight as he might say something in return that would make her blush.
After a long while, she heard Wei Zilin sighing faintly.
He turned to lie down on his side and reached over to curl her hair with his fingers playfully. “I can’t believe mum and dad aren’t objecting to us sharing a bed. But how is it that I lose my spunk when I’m in your home?”
Xu Moyan was about to drift away to sleep when she heard what he said. She nearly choked.
She opened her eyes to look at him. She wondered if she was imagining it, but Wei Zilin’s eyes looked brightly green.
“I’m worried that if we make a commotion, mum and dad will hear us,” Wei Ziln sighed helplessly.
Xu Moyan knew that it was because he cared about how her parents felt about him, which was why he was so constrained.
She hugged him at the waist and nestled into his arms as she said quietly, “Go to sleep, it’s only one night.”
Wei Zilin kissed her on the forehead and closed his eyes as he hugged her, trying his best to fall asleep.
…
Before long, the day of Yan Beicheng and Lin Chu’s wedding came.
They did not have a huge group of groomsmen and bridesmaids, only Wei Zilin and Xu Moyan were there to serve as best man and maid of honor respectively.
Wei Zilin had brought Xu Moyan out to pick out her dress. The skirt was knee-length and looked pretty on her without taking attention away from the bride.
During the game segment, most would think of harmless games to have fun with the bride and groom. For example, getting the groom to carry the bride in his arms and walking from one end of a shiatsu sheet to the other to get the bride’s high-heels.
Some would also think up of games for the best man and maid of honor.
Someone from below the stage shouted, “Get the best man and bridesmaid to sing a duet!”
Everyone started shouting the same thing. So, Wei Zilin discussed it with Xu Moyan. It was a happy occasion and it would not be nice for them to reject the request.
Xu Moyan was tone-deaf, but she thought it would entertain the crowd if she ended up singing poorly. She started out by asking the hotel what songs were available and could be played on the speaker system.
In the end, Wei Zilin held her hand and said, “Let just sing Tied by Fate.”
Tied by Fate was the theme song for Massacre OL that was written for them by Zhezi.
Xu Moyan had practiced the song numerous times. Even the hardest portion of the song, which had been altered by Zhezi, had been conquered by her. There was no chance of her embarrassing herself.
Xu Moyan may not have minded getting a laugh or two from the crowd on a joyous day like this, but Wei Zilin did and was not willing to let it happen.
Even if those people laughed at her with good intent, he was still reluctant.
Unfortunately, the songs during the wedding were prepared by the event management and they did not have that particular song prepared.
Nan Jingheng walked over to them in curiosity. When he found out what song they wanted to sing, he took out his phone excitedly. “Big Brother, sis-in-law, you’re being too kind to me, singing Tied by Fate here. This is another opportunity to promote the online game again. Big brother, it doesn’t come as a surprise to me that you’re in the public relations business.”
Wei Zilin, “…”
Xu Moyan, “…”
They did not have the heart to hit him with the truth when they saw how happy Nan Jingheng was.
“I have the song on my phone. I’ll get it and connect it to the sound system in a while,” Nan Jingheng searched for Tied by Fate in his phone and left to work things out with the event management.
Wei Zilin and Xu Moyan walked up the stage. Not long after, the first notes of Tied by Fate could be heard playing.
When they were recording the song in the studio, there was only Nan Jingheng and Zhezi. Now that they were facing a huge crowd of wedding guests, Xu Moyan started to feel a little nervous.
She took a deep breath and looked at Wei Zilin and saw that he was giving her a light smile.
The lights on the stage darkened and the spotlights hit both of them. The bright lights made Wei Zilin’s features seem gentler. The tiny dust particles flying in the air could be seen clearly under the spotlights and gave the entire atmosphere a misty appearance. They floated lightly around him.
As Wei Zilin started singing, everyone went silent.
Those who knew Wei Zilin were aware that he had a very nice voice, but they did not expect his singing voice to be significantly more mesmerizing than when he was speaking.
With the delicate tune accompanying his voice, it did not matter how many people were listening in. The way Wei Zilin sang, it felt like he was alone with Xu Moyan as he confessed his love for her. His clear, elegant voice caught the hearts of every person listening to him.
A young girl sitting below the stage suddenly covered her mouth and called out quietly, “Oh my god, it can’t be!”
Her hands trembled as she took out her phone to film the stage excitedly.
When Wei Zilin finished his portion of the song, Xu Moyan’s quiet, sweet voice filled the hall. She may not have the technique of a professional, but her voice sounded surprisingly sincere and was filled with emotion, captivating everyone’s attention.
The young girl who was recording a video could not help shouting out again, “Oh my god!”
“What’s wrong with you? You’ve been causing a commotion since just now,” a middle-aged woman by her side turned to ask. It was her mother.
The young girl placed her index finger on her lips to hint at her mother to be quiet for a while.
The young girl was here to attend the wedding with her parents. She had never expected to bump into Yu Linling and Silent Words during such an occasion!
She was a fan of Silent Words and loved watching her cooking. When her videos showed something simple, the young girl would try making it at home. If it was something too complex, she would still enjoy watching the video even if she could not replicate it herself.
Whenever Silent Words would upload a cooking video, such as teaching everyone to make their own Chongqing hotpot soup base, she would fry the meat and make fishballs, shrimp paste, exploding beef balls, and shrimp dumpling. The whole process would make the young girl crave for hotpot and she would immediately give her friends a call to hang out for a meal of spicy, hot Chongqing hotpot.
It was because of Silent Words that she got to know about Yu Linling. She had even listened to their voiceovers of Qing Siyu and Qi Shaofeng, as well as their duet.
Yu Linling’s voice was highly recognizable and when they sang on stage together, there was also the familiar voice of Silent Words, which made her recognize them immediately.
The young girl was so astounded that tears came to her eyes. She had never expected she would one day meet Yu Linling and Silent Words in person, much less have the chance to listen to their live duet.
She had always thought of their love story as romantic. It was one of the few relationships in the two-dimensional world that she thought to be true and sincere.
However, both personalities were really low-profile, and they never had the intention of revealing themselves. The sole reason why they worked on the voiceover and recorded the duet together was to help a friend out.
There were many people who wanted to work with them due to their online popularity alone. This young girl was very up to date on things happening in the two-dimensional world. She had found out from her friends that many corporations tried to reach out to them. None of these businesses had their contact numbers so they could only use Weibo’s private messaging system to get in touch with them.
There were invitations for comic cons all over the country, as well as branding and advertising offers.
However, none of their messages got any response. It was obvious that neither of them really checked their private messages or that they had ignored these offers. They had no intention of taking up any event offers other than Massacre OL.
Silent Words continued uploading her cooking videos and managed her own Weibo as usual. She had no intention of delving into the online voiceover industry nor recording cover songs.
According to Silent Words’ past photos in Weibo, the young girl could tell that both Yu Linling and Silent Words lived in B City, the same city she stayed in.
However, the young girl had never imagined ever seeing them both in the flesh.
She could not believe that Yu Linling was actually Wei Zilin!
Those who attended the wedding were people who had dealings with the Yan family. It was either personal friends or business partners.
The young girl’s family belonged to the latter. It meant that she did not come from an ordinary family if her family was able to do business with the Yan family.
When it came to Wei Zilin, she was aware of who he was even if she had not met him before.
No wonder Han Zhuoli and all his friends had come out to defend Yu Linling and Silent Words during their controversies online.
When so many big names had come forward to stand on their side during the Mo Xiaoqing issue, the internet had guessed that Yu Linling must come from a powerful background.
She never thought it was this powerful.
The young girl lifted her phone while her hand slightly trembled.
When the chorus came on and they sang that particular part together, the man’s voice was filled clearly with love. There were no excessive emotions but there was a magnetic allure to his voice. It might be because he was singing the duet with his girlfriend that his voice possessed a natural emotion.
When she zoomed in on her phone, she realized that Wei Zilin was looking at Xu Moyan with love whilst he sang. There was a loving twinkle in his eyes.
