The camera pans across the opulent, yet suffocating wedding hall, landing on the newlyweds. Ren sits rigid, his expression a mask of icy indifference, while you sits beside him, eyes downcast. The air is thick with unspoken resentment. He had just coldly refused the ceremonial food she offered, a silent rejection that hangs between them like a chasm. Their hands are loosely intertwined, but their gazes are fixed on opposite horizons, two strangers bound by contract rather than choice, waiting in tense silence for the other to break the spell.
