"Ruan, come on, be quick. We don't wanna be late on our own wedding day now, do we?" Asked a man in a very soft voice.
"Lin Lin, relax. I'm done, let me just grab the car keys okay?" Said Ruan a very deep voice making Lin Lin's heart beat faster.
Seeing the blush on his boyfriend soon to be husband's face, Ruan Nanzhu smiled heartily before disappearing in the room and coming back with the same speed.
"Come on, let's go." He said and they both left holding hands.
The garage door opened and one could see a whole showroom of supercars. Ruan Nanzhu looked at Lin Lin and asked, "Which one?"
"This one, please?" Lin Lin pointed to the Rolls Royce Phantom and looked at Ruan with a pout and puppy eyes.
Ruan couldn't hold back and immediately pulled in Lin Lin for a quick kiss, leaving him in a blushing mess.
"How did you know even I planned to take the same?" He asked while showing the keys in his hand to which Lin Lin just smiled.
They both got in the car and left for the court, to finally register their marriage.
Two hours later, after getting their marriage certificates, both happily got back in the car and started driving home, unknown to the horrors that were about to destroy their happiness and separate them for good.
Half way through, Ruan felt that something was wrong with the car, he turned to look at his lover, who was looking outside the window with a smile on his face.
Ruan realised he couldn't apply brakes for the car to slow down or rather stop it. None of the brakes worked. He slowly took Lin Lin's hand in his own while his eyes were still on the road.
"Lin Qiushi, I love you so much. In my whole life I have always loved you. You are my first and my last, my only love and there won't ever be anyone, remember that, Okay?" Ruan Nanzhu said with his deep as always but there was a certain kind of heartache.
"Ruan Nanzhu, we just got married. Why does this feel like a goodbye already? What is wrong? I only love you. Our families, who treat us like the apple of their eyes also got ready to send us away here so far just so that we can live together and get married." Lin Qiushi was feeling anxious now.
"Lin Lin, my baby... (sighs and takes a deep breath), the brakes are not working. I can't even stop the car. But it won't be long before we might crash and..." Ruan stopped and, "we could die anytime!" he completed the sentence is his mind.
By now his eyes were filled with tears. Lin Qiushi's hands went cold and Ruan noticed it. Qiushi had almost grasped what his now husband was trying to tell.
"Ruan, will we die?" Lin Qiushi asked, the last word in almost a whisper.
"I promise I won't let anything happen to you. I will protect you till the end of either my life or yours. But if anyone of us has to live, let's promise to live happily and not give up on life, okay?" Ruan asked Qiushi to promise.
Even though Lin Qiushi hesitated and didn't agree at first, later, he squeezed Ruan Nanzhu's hand a bit and said, "I promise, now your turn." Quishi said holding back a sob, while his body trembled.
"I promise." Ruan said and looked at Lin Qiushi one last time before letting go off the steering wheel.
Ruan Nanzhu took off his seat belt and leaned in front of Lin Qiushi, and kissed him on his forehead and then his lips while they both cried.
"I, Ruan Nanzhu, promise you, Lin Qiushi, if anyone of us has to survive this, it will be you. Let me be selfish and save you one last time. Hate me as much as you can, don't forgive me ever, but don't forget me, please. Please don't fall for anyone else. Live well and happily. I love you forever, my baby." Ruan Nanzhu promised silently and as he finished, the car went out of control.
It hit the side rails along the road and breaking through, collapsed down the bridge into the lake..
"I love you, Qiushi."
"I love you, Nanzhu."
They both said simultaneously as the car hit the rocks and then fell into the lake.
