The beautiful bride lowers her head and says, "Zhou Jie Lun... I believe you shouldn't be here. What's past is past. The girl you knew is dead."
"I don't care what happened," JieLun is stubborn, but his voice is as calm as ever, "I'll still come and look for you whether or not she's dead."
JieLun was about to leave when he turns around and looks at the groom. "WeiFa?" JieLun says cooly, "Until she's married she's still up for grabs you know."
He remembers the first time he had seen her in the classroom.. She sat down beside him... And then he had told himself... "She's mine." "She's mine." "She's mine."
As he leaves it is so quiet he can hear a pin drop. But then he thinks to himself, the silence is not only from his surroundings... It's also from her heart.
He's frustrated that after so many years, her heart still seems like an empty void...
Void of hope...
Void of happiness.
But brides are supposed to be happy...
This one defies all stereotypes.

FLASHBACK:
"My goodness," MeiLing pulled JieLun by the collar awkwardly. "HeiLun, did you hear?"
His eyes lighten up, "Hear?"
"There's this kid from the top class.. Liu WeiFa."
"Ohh," JieLun nodded, "Rather smart kid."
"He told his class that he likes ShuMin."
JieLun almost choked, "You've gotta be kidding."
MeiLing couldn't help but smile... This would be interesting. "Yeah... that good-looking geek seems to have a pretty big crush on her."
JieLun kept quiet, but MeiLing could tell that he was grief-stricken.
"Smart too," She added, as though it would help. "He's perfect."
JieLun was silent.
MeiLing continued musing, "Nice face that boy's got..."
JieLun walked off without a second thought, leaving MeiLing to yell after him. As he caught up to the classroom, he noticed laughter coming from inside.
Without looking in he knew that ShuMin was laughing. Why?? Liu WeiFa's name came into his mind. But then stubbornly he refused to admit that anyone else had liked her too. Yes she was perfect in his eyes... But then she was his. His.
He walked into the classroom with downcast eyes.
"ZHOU JIE LUN!"
JieLun glanced at who had called him. It was Liu WeiFa. He sat on a chair next to ShuMin's desk... He was sitting on JieLun's sit. JieLun didn't appreciate that very much, but he didn't say anything.
WeiFa threw a basketball towards JieLun, who caught it swiftly.
"Heard you're good in basketball," WeiFa smiled, "I'd love to play with you some time... HeiLun."
ShuMin smiled as well, glancing at WeiFa. WeiFa had large dreamy eyes and with his boyish looks, almost every girl in school had a crush on him. He was the WonBin, ZaiZai or any handsome boy of that school period.
JieLun shrugged his shoulders coldly.
"How about now?" WeiFa stood up suddenly, and both of them realised they stood up to the same height. Their eyes met on the same level...
JieLun shrugged his shoulders again, "Shui Bian Ni. (Up to you)."
At the basketball court, JieLun kept losing...
Girls had gathered to see the famous HeiLun and their dreamboy competing... JieLun hated crowds but WeiFa seemed to attract them, and loved them.
Round after round, it seemed as though JieLun was on the losing end...
All he could think of was ShuMin laughing with WeiFa.
"JIE LUN!!!" Xiao T., his team-mate, shouted, "Ni Zhe Me Le??? (What's wrong with you???)"
JieLun shrugged his shoulders and walked off the court... He abandoned the game just like that.
As he walked past WeiFa, WeiFa smiled.
"Wo Shi Hui Ying De. (I WILL win.)" WeiFa murmured.
"Childish games," JieLun replied through gritted teeth, "Are for kids."
"We'll see," WeiFa threw the basketball neatly into the loop.
