Chapter 1215 - 1168: Together Through Life and Death (Part 3)
Meanwhile, guests seated on various floors who prefer not to move can also watch Lin Jie and An Kexin's wedding ceremony live on the large screens on the walls.Arriving here, Lin Jie was amazed to find that on the left side of the hall near the ceremony stage, there appeared a band of forty to fifty people.
The size of this group is enough to form a symphony orchestra.
Each person is dressed in formal performance attire, but the variety of instruments they hold is quite eclectic, including violins, cellos, clarinets, saxophones, trombones, as well as traditional instruments like guzheng, bamboo flutes, pipa, suona, and gongs.
Looking at these people, Lin Jie recognized them one by one: Tian Xiangyu, Xiao Ganghao, Yan Beichen, Song Licheng, Lu Xiaoyu, Wei Hongyang, Ma Hongmin, Zhao Fang, Gao Yanhong, Huo Guangheng, Guo Peng, He Yimin, Guo Peng, and others.
Besides Lin Jie's students, the other people are either doctors hired by Anlin Hospital, newly recruited interns this year, or exchange doctors from abroad.
At this moment, Lin Jie saw Fang Huanru, dressed in a black cocktail dress, holding a conductor's baton, smiling serenely as she walked over.
"Teacher, this is the congratulatory gift we meticulously prepared: live accompaniment and performance of the Wedding March, plus harmonies for your saxophone performance of 'The Moon Represents My Heart.'"
"Teacher, how do you feel? Surprised? Happy?"
Lin Jie chuckled, "Of course, I'm happy! And surprised, too."
"But..."
He pointed to the guzheng in front of He Yimin, then gestured towards the violin in Tian Xiangyu's hand, saying, "This kind of mix might end up sounding neither here nor there, don't you think?"
Fang Huanru confidently replied, "Teacher, we've invited famous musicians from Binhai to re-arrange the compositions to suit our situation. We guarantee a wonderful musical feast for you, your wife, and all the guests attending today."
Lin Jie, noncommittal, said, "Hearing is believing!"
At 12:08, the emcee announced the start of the ceremony.
Under Fang Huanru's direction, the mixed ensemble began playing soft and gentle music.
Upon hearing it, Lin Jie nodded with satisfaction.
Though it didn't reach professional orchestra standards overall, it was indeed pleasant music.
The emcee for this event didn't have much room for personal flair; both Lin Jie and An Kexin had specifically instructed him to proceed in a routine manner without quirks or jests.
As the emcee began his rather plain narration, the music suddenly transitioned into the cheerful and stirring Wedding March.
The bride had appeared.
The stunning An Kexin, dressed in a traditional wedding gown of gold and red, elegantly walked arm-in-arm with An Weize.
From her gaze, Lin Jie saw her surprise, knowing she too was unaware of the sudden appearance of the band.
He stepped forward, taking An Kexin's hand from An Weize, and together, they walked onto the flower-adorned ceremonial stage, facing each other.
"Now, the bride and groom will exchange their vows to spend a lifetime together!"
At this moment, the emcee felt somewhat frustrated.
Faced with such a grand wedding attended by nearly all the elite of Binhai, yet having no chance to showcase his abilities, he worried they would consider his skills inadequate.
Who would invite him to host events in the future?
However, the emcee dared not make a mess; the company had repeatedly instructed him not to cause any disturbances.
Lin Jie cleared his throat and began, "Kexin, I once said I would play 'The Moon Represents My Heart' for you at our wedding, so I will replace my vows with this piece!"
At this point, Lu Kaicheng, acting as the best man, hurried over to hand him the saxophone he was holding.
Lin Jie took the saxophone, gazed affectionately at An Kexin, gripped the mouthpiece, and began to play...
As the extremely familiar and beautiful sound rang out, Fang Huanru gently waved her conductor's baton, and the soft harmonizing sounds began to drift through the air...
Watching Lin Jie's body gently sway to the rhythm of the music and listening to the graceful and delicate melody, An Kexin couldn't help but recall the scenes she shared with Lin Jie.
Slender and frail, a handsome face, bright eyes—these were her first impressions of Lin Jie upon meeting.
"I can't truly guarantee it; I can only say there's some certainty..." This was the youthful-faced Lin Jie's response when she asked if he could ensure the success of her father's surgery.
"Alright, just like that! Kexin, you must remember, every time before a procedure, tell me beforehand..."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I take this opportunity to formally introduce my girlfriend..."
"I didn't think much at the time; I just knew that if I left you there, you definitely wouldn't survive..."
The past experiences, like scenes from a film, vividly flashed through her mind rapidly. Suddenly, An Kexin felt a cool sensation on her face.
She reached up to touch it, realizing her hand was wet.
Only then did An Kexin realize she had unwittingly started crying.
An Kexin wanted to smile but couldn't stop the tears from flowing, so she could only cry while striving to smile...
The song concluded!
An Kexin took the tissue handed to her by An Kemeng, whose eyes were also red, and wiped her eyes. Looking at Lin Jie standing before her, she slowly spoke, "I've thought of many drafts for my wedding vows before, and only now have I come up with the most fitting promise!"
She paused slightly before earnestly saying, "Ah Jie, whether in sickness, in health, or for any other reason, I will love you, care for you, respect you, and always be loyal to you until the end of my life."
Lin Jie also spoke, "Kexin, we will never part, living and dying together!"
