The line between love and obsession

The Wedding

Jin's wedding looked exactly how Wei Ying had imagined it would look- Grand. Lavish. Extravagant. Little Tacky. It was taking place in one of Jin's villas, located on the outskirts of the city, close to their private beach, just an hour's drive from the city.

Wei Ying was wearing a grey suit, his hair tied up in a messy ponytail. He was carrying a gigantic beige tote bag.

"Do you really have to carry cave of a bag?" Mian Mian had asked.

"It's a fashion statement. You wouldn't know stuff like this," Wei Ying retorted.

His main goal today was to sneak out as much food as possible in his purse; he was planning to cover at least two meals out of it. Mian Mian frowned a little and ignored him.

"This is beautiful. I'm loving this whole gold and red theme. I am inspired," Mian Mian said, looking around.

"Did you guys find the venue for your wedding?" Wei Ying asked.

Wen Qing and Mian Mian were engaged since last year and were planning to wed this year.

"We want to get married at the same place we met for the first time. So, we are desperately trying to book a wedding date at koi Tower hall," Mian Mian said.

Wei Ying snorted a laugh upon hearing that, which earned him an angry look from her.

"What is it, Wei Ying?" Mian Mian asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Why are you lying? You guys met at that seedy bar in the southeast, where Wen Qing kissed you and vomited right after, and then you asked her to be your roommate. You guys didn't meet at Koi Tower Hall,"

Mian Mian looked outraged.

"So, now you know our meeting story better than we? Wen Qing didn't vomit because she kissed me, she vomited because she was drunk, okay?" Mian Mian said incredulously.

"Okay. Alright," Wei Ying sighed a breath out.

"Technically, it's Koi Tower hall. That's where we first saw one other. We were sixteen, and both of us were there to see our favorite boy band. We didn't talk to each other, of course. Wen Qing was with her friends, and I noticed her because she looked so cool. Apparently, Wen Qing had noticed me there as well. She thought I was really pretty. So now, we want to get married there," Mian Mian said with heartful eyes.

"Oh! So sweet," Wei Ying said dramatically, clutching his chest.

No sooner had he said that than he caught sight of Lan Wangji chatting with Jiang Cheng, which made him freeze. Mian Mian followed his line of sight and exclaimed,

"Oh! So, that is Lan Wangji! Looks quite similar to his older brother. I must say,".

An elderly lady behind them, who heard Mian Mian, came closer towards them and whispered,

"They came here together. I think they are dating. Quite a match, don't you think? Both are rich, and handsome and come from good families. I couldn't have chosen someone more perfect for either of them. Maybe next year, we get to see another Jiang wedding," The blabbermouth elderly lady blabbered on.

Wei Ying's stomach twisted violently upon hearing those words. It had been just two weeks since he last saw Lan Wangji, and now he already has a boyfriend. Maybe he already had one, he just didn't tell Wei Ying about it.

"Excuse me. I have to use the restroom," Wei Ying said.

Wei Ying felt like he was hyperventilating. He steadied himself as he laid both his hands on the sink, staring at himself in the mirror, taking deep breaths.
