"This is Deng family's RMB 500 million. Take care of it." Jude Zhu smiled and pulled out a bank card.
"I told you already that I don't lack money. Take this money. You can use it for your family's business." Finn Chen refused.
"Finn, I don't care, but I must return the money. You have helped us repay the Zhu family's RMB 500 million loans. I can't take the money." Jude explained.
"It's not my money. It's Jos Deng's money."
"Finn, stop it. I know better than anyone else that Jos would not have done that if it wasn't to respect you."
"Jos would have let Zhu family go bankrupt."
"Well, Finn, let's not talk about it anymore. You have to take the money today. Otherwise, you will disrespect me." Jude said with a straight face.
"All right, I'll take it." Finn took the card with a wry smile.
Seeing Finn accepted the card, Jude became jubilant instantly: "Hey, now that's my brother."
Finn shook his head and laughed, but he didn't know what to say to Jude. Even he couldn't stay calm in front of RMB 500 million.
"Kiss! Kiss!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall.
Finn turned his head and looked in the direction of the commotion.
A crowd had formed under the circular stage in the center of the hall. They were watching the groom and the bride.
The bride in the white wedding dress closed her eyes shyly. Then, the tall groom in the black suit presented her with a deep kiss.
The crowd roared again, applause thundering across the room.
Finn couldn't help but take a look at Jude. Jude was smiling, but deep in his eyes, there was indescribable loneliness.
"Do you still like her?" Finn smiled.
"Not anymore." Jude shook his head, still maintaining a smile on his face.
Finn nodded softly.
Although he didn't know what happened between Jude and his ex-girlfriend, Finn knew that we might long for some people for the rest of our lives.
After the bride and groom kiss, they began to toast.
The hall was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Only Finn's table was dull.
After saying that he didn't like her anymore, Jude poured a glass of wine silently, drank it down, and poured another glass.
At this time, Finn didn't say anything to comfort him.
As a friend, the only thing he needed to do was to drink with Jude.
Soon, the groom and bride came to their table.
Seeing Jude's reddish face, the bride seemed reluctant to talk to him.
But there was a certain chill in the groom's eyes.
"Fat ass, what are you doing here?"
The groom asked while staring at Jude.
