Teacher Li shook her head to decline his offer. “I am not worthy enough to be the wedding witness. It was merely just a hunch that both of you would be a couple, and I only had the opportunity to meet both of you today. I just want to be a guest at your wedding.”

“Who else other than you is worthy to be our witness?”

Yan Rusheng’s words cemented Teacher Li’s status in their hearts.

Getting his hands on the present wasn’t the entire reason he had offered Teacher Li to be their witness. He had been searching for a suitable one recently.

But no one was satisfactory. However, when he saw Teacher Li today, his eyes lit up.

Who else could be more suitable than Xuxu and his cla.s.s teacher?

“Teacher Li, don’t decline anymore.”

“Yeah! You are their cla.s.s teacher, and you’re definitely worthy and suitable.”

All the other teachers began to encourage her.

Teacher Li glanced at Xuxu.

Xuxu pressed her lips and winked at Teacher Li.

She smiled and said, “Then I shall accept it graciously.”

She bent and opened her handbag to retrieve a pink envelope. With a benign smile, she pa.s.sed it to Yan Rusheng.

“This is my present for you. Remember to open it when no one is around,” said Teacher Li as she stole a glance at Xuxu.

Xuxu had an urge to intercept that envelope when she was pa.s.sing it to Yan Rusheng.

But she wasn’t as daring as Zhou Shuang, so she could only sit there and watch them with her heart in her mouth.

Yan Rusheng nodded as he received it. “Thank you, Teacher Li.”

How he wished he could tear the envelope right then. But Teacher Li had reminded him to open it when he was alone.

He hesitated before standing up. “I need the gents.”

He had drunk a considerable amount tonight and he needed the gents.

When he stood up, giddiness seized him and he almost lost his footing. Fortunately, he managed to hold on to the table for support.

Xuxu hastily stood up and grabbed his arm. “Ah Sheng, what’s wrong? Are you drunk?”

Yan Rusheng shook his head. “I’m fine.”

He gently pushed Xuxu’s hand and said, “I’m going to the gents. Wen Xuxu, you’re not allowed to follow me.”

Xuxu snorted coldly. ”

Hmph!

I thought you were drunk, so I wanted to support you. Who wants to take a peek at your present!”

Xuxu sat down in a huff and turned her face away from Yan Rusheng.

Yan Rusheng grinned before walking to the exit.

He really drank too much that night. He felt that his head was getting heavier as he stumbled clumsily out of the room.

Xuxu sneaked a glance at Yan Rusheng. She really wanted to follow him but she couldn’t.

Yan Rusheng came out of the cubicle and walked to the basin.

He leaned against the basin as he excitedly tore the envelope. An aged-looking paper with a drawing was inside.

He was feeling really giddy that he was already seeing double.

“Ah Sheng…” Yan Rusheng mumbled when he saw the words on the paper.

Ah Sheng… wasn’t that him?

He beamed widely and he was delighted.

He shook his head in a bid to clear his mind. There were two children in the drawing: a girl and a boy.

Yan Rusheng was grinning from ear to ear as he bent to sniff the paper.

“Xuxu.”

That drawing was hypnotizing him like a drug and he couldn’t resist it. He closed his eyes and Xuxu’s face filled his mind.

Her smile, her tears, her anger, her gentleness…
