Zhao Shu returned to the Zhao Mansion the next day. Originally, she didn’t want to go back so soon, but Xie Jin said that if she returned one day later, he would have to marry her one day later. So early the next morning, he packed her up and sent her back to the Mansion in a carriage.

Matching horoscopes, agreeing on auspicious dates and proposing marriage, everything was going on in an orderly manner.

Zhao Xueying, whom she hadn’t seen since she returned home, appeared in her yard today for the first time ever, looking awkward and reluctant. She didn’t know if she was seeing things, but she always felt that she walked towards her with a bit of shyness on her face.

Zhao Xueying stood in front of her and muttered awkwardly: “What are you looking at!”

Zhao Shu wanted to take her into the house to sit down, but she didn’t want to: “No need to go in, I’ll be leaving in a moment!”

Zhao Shu didn’t force her: “Okay.”

Zhao Xueying was a little embarrassed: “Well, I heard that there is a new jewelry store in the east of the city. Do you want to go with me to have a look?” After saying that, she explained, “I am not inviting you. I just feel so sorry for you staying in the house all day long, so I want to take you out!”

Zhao Shu: “Okay.”

Zhao Xueying was confused: “Ah?”

Zhao Shu: “Aren’t we going out? Let’s go.”

Zhao Xueying couldn’t believe it: “You agreed so soon? Why don’t you take this opportunity to make some small requests?”

Zhao Shu: “You took me out because you felt sorry for me, how can I have the nerve to make another request?”

Zhao Xueying felt a little uncomfortable: “That’s true, but…”

Zhao Shu: “But what?”

Zhao Xueying murmured quietly: “But if you make some reasonable requests, I think I will agree.”

Zhao Shu smiled and said, “Forget it. One should not be too greedy.”

Zhao Xueying: “Oh.”

Zhao Shu: “Let’s go.”

“Hey, let’s go!” The tone was so light, so light that it made Zhao Xueying feel shy.

In order to save face, she took two big steps to overtake Zhao Shu and said in a mature voice: “Slow down, why don’t you catch up!”

Zhao Shu smiled and looked at her back, and replied, “I’m coming.”

The two had never been out together alone before, and when they suddenly got together, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Fortunately, there were many people on the street and the atmosphere was lively. This noisy atmosphere diluted the strangeness between the two.

The two of them were walking not far from each other. Zhao Xueying thought that Zhao Shu didn’t notice. In fact, the person she stole a glance at from time to time had already noticed her actions and was just pretending not to know.

Perhaps because of Zhao Shu’s “ignorance”, Zhao Xueying’s gaze became more and more presumptuous, staring at her face endlessly.

But the gaze beside her was too intense, and she couldn’t ignore it even if she wanted to, so she could only turn her head away helplessly.

The moment Zhao Shu turned her head, Zhao Xueying immediately turned her head and looked away.

Zhao Shu asked gently, “What’s wrong?”

Zhao Xueying’s face was a little stiff, and she said stubbornly: “Nothing!”

Zhao Shu: “Yeah.”

Zhao Xueying waited for a long time but she didn’t continue to ask, feeling a little unwilling: “Don’t you have anything else to say?”

Zhao Shu: “Hmm?”

Zhao Xueying rolled her eyes: “What on earth does Cousin Jin like about you? You’re so stupid!”

Zhao Shu: “Maybe he has a unique taste and just likes me being stupid.”

Zhao Xueying was about to speak when she was interrupted by a voice behind her.

“What you said is so shameless!”

Zhao Xueying turned around and glared at You Yurong: “You said it was shameless!”

“I’m talking about whoever stole someone else’s fiancé!”

“you”

Wang Yujin, who was standing next to You Yurong, stared at Zhao Shu and said, “I heard that you and Brother Jin are going to get married soon?”

Zhao Xueying glanced at Zhao Shu and heard her say, “Well, it’s almost time.”

Zhao Xueying felt her scalp tingling as she looked at the two of them. One was her old friend, the other was her sister. They were both engaged to the same man. It was a suffocating atmosphere. Why did she choose this day when she could have chosen to come out?
Zhao Xueying laughed and said: “Yu Jin, you are out shopping too, what a coincidence, we are also…”

“Unfortunately, I came here to find you. Oh, to be precise, I came here to find her!” Wang Yujin interrupted her, staring at Zhao Shu.

Judging from the situation, it must be related to Xie Jin. Ah, bah, this will only bring trouble to her love life!
Zhao Xueying thought of the time when Zhao Shu was bullied and didn’t say a word, and felt that Zhao Shu would definitely not be able to handle such a tense situation, so she quickly spoke for her: “Why are you looking for her? You’re looking for me. We haven’t seen each other for a long time.” Then, she walked to Wang Yujin and was about to take her hand, “Come on, let’s go, let’s go for a good walk.”

Wang Yujin dodged her hand and said, “You don’t have to come here to play around. I came here to see her today. I want to ask her why she wanted to steal my fiancé!”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xueying quickly glanced at Zhao Shu’s expression. Seeing that she didn’t show any strange expression because of these words, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then her expression turned cold, and when she looked at Wang Yujin again, she no longer had the initial enthusiasm: “Yujin, aren’t you saying too much!”

“When cousin Jin and my sister got engaged, they were completely innocent and had no marriage contract. Their marriage was done according to the rules and procedures, with the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker. Every step was reasonable and logical!”

Wang Yujin suddenly became excited: “Is it really reasonable? Then who was the person who secretly met with Brother Jin and told him not to marry me when Brother Jin and I were still engaged? Who was it?!”

Zhao Xueying frowned and was about to speak when Zhao Shu said, “What you call a meeting was just a chance encounter.”

“Since you know about this, you must have been there at the time. You should also be aware of what my cousin Jin and I said and did. Our behavior was reasonable and we didn’t overstep the line at all.”

That day she just wanted to make things clear with Xie Jin and not have any more contact with him in the future.

Wang Yujin’s expression suddenly turned sad: “Zhao Shu, Sister Shu’er, can you return Brother Jin to me? I can’t live without him. He and I love each other. You are good-looking and have a good family background. Even if you lose him, you can find a better husband. Shu’er, please return him to me.”

Zhao Xueying: “How can you say that? What do you mean by return it to you? What do you mean by you and Xie Jin love each other? You, you can’t say that!”

Wang Yujin ignored her, walked a few steps to Zhao Shu, and held her hand: “Shu’er, my cousin Jin and I love each other. At the beginning, he was going to the war, and he was afraid that I would marry him after he came back, so he insisted on getting engaged to me on such a hurried day. Shu’er, he has me in his heart, so please help us!”

As soon as these words were spoken, people around began pointing and talking about Zhao Shu.

“This girl looks like a good person, but how could she be so evil? The couple is in love and have been engaged, but she has to interfere. Isn’t this clearly ruining their marriage?”

Wang Yujin: “Shu’er, if, if you really can’t bear to leave Brother Jin, it’s fine, you can still marry Brother Jin as your main wife, I, I won’t fight with you, just allow me to be a concubine, so that I can accompany Brother Jin quietly.”

“Look at how low the girl’s attitude is. As her wife, you shouldn’t be so jealous. She’s just a concubine, and you just agreed.”

“Yes, girl, just accept it.”

A few words came intermittently from the crowd.

Zhao Shu looked indifferent. She let go of Wang Yujin’s hand and said, “Although Xie Jin and I are engaged, I haven’t married yet. You shouldn’t ask me about this. It’s not in accordance with the rules. You should ask Xie Jin. If he agrees, I have nothing to say.”

“I, Xie Jin, will only have you in my life, and there will be no one else.”

Suddenly, a clear male voice was heard from the crowd.

Zhao Shu glanced at him indifferently.

Xie Jin walked towards Zhao Shu, came to her side and glanced at her, then looked at Wang Yujin and said, “Miss Wang, please respect yourself.”

The tone was neither light nor cold, yet distant, and it was totally unlike what Wang Yujin had said, that the man was in love with the woman.

Someone in the crowd was puzzled: “Didn’t they say they were in love with each other? Why do they look like they don’t know each other well?”

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s not appropriate for this guy to express his love for that girl in front of his wife?”

“What you said does make some sense, but I still think that as a child of a noble family, he doesn’t need to care about these things. If he has someone he likes, he will marry her. Why would he care about other people’s feelings?”

Xie Jin naturally heard what those people said. He looked at Wang Yujin coldly, not knowing whether he was speaking to those people or to Zhao Shu: “The only person I love is Shu’er, and the only person I want to stay with forever is Shu’er. There is only room for Shu’er by my side, and no one else. Do you understand what I mean, Miss Wang?”

Xie Jin said mercilessly: “Miss Wang, I don’t know if you have any hobbies. You keep wanting to go to someone else’s house and become someone’s concubine. Since this is your ambition, I have no right to stop you. But please don’t say these weird things to my future wife in the future, so as not to destroy the relationship between me and my future wife.”

Wang Yujin took a step back with a pale face: “Brother Jin, do you really not like me at all?”

Xie Jin shook his head gently: “No,” he turned his head to look at Zhao Shu, “From the beginning to the end, there is only Shu’er in my heart, no one else.”

This sentence completely brought Wang Yujin to the bottom. She murmured while looking at Xie Jin, “No, no, I don’t believe you have never liked me.”

She suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Xie Jin’s arm: “Brother Jin, was it Zhao Shu who forced you, was it Zhao Shu who forced you, so you said you didn’t like me,” she lowered her head and murmured to herself, “It must be, it must be like this,” she grabbed Zhao Shu’s hand fiercely, “It’s you, you bitch, you stole Brother Jin, give Brother Jin back to me!”

Xie Jin frowned, grabbed her hand tightly, and said coldly: “Miss Wang, your patience is limited. If you continue to be so unreasonable, don’t blame me for being rude!”

As he said this, he pushed the person back and looked at Wang Yujin’s maid with a cold expression: “Go back and tell your master, if your daughter still doesn’t know how to restrain herself and keeps harassing my future wife, I will personally go to your house to ask for an explanation. By then, it won’t be a simple apology that can get away with it!”

The maid was frightened by Xie Jin’s words, and hurriedly helped Wang Yujin, who was obviously mentally unstable, away.

Seeing Wang Yujin leave, Xie Jin’s cold expression improved. When he looked away, he glanced at You Yurong and his eyes turned cold again: “Miss You has good family education. Does Lord You know that?”

You Yurong was stunned at first, then she turned around to look at the people around her who were pointing at her, her expression filled with shame and anger, and she turned around and ran away!
Seeing this, everyone understood that this was just a girl who couldn’t get the love she wanted. She was so foolish that she couldn’t get the love she wanted and she was so shameless that she was pestering her future wife.

Everyone felt a little embarrassed for a moment. They had just accused the girl of being vicious and heartless and breaking up the lovers. Now the situation was reversed and the man who had shamelessly harassed the girl was the one who wanted to break up the lovers. Their usually thick skins suddenly felt awkward.

An old lady mustered up the courage to say to Zhao Shu, “Miss, I’m sorry for what happened just now. It’s also your fault that you didn’t understand the situation and made a random comment. Don’t take it to heart.”

Someone took the lead, and others followed suit to apologize: “Yes, girl, I’m really sorry for what happened just now.”

“Girl, you and your husband look so well matched. What’s that thing called? What’s it called?”

“Whether you are educated or not, you are a perfect match!”

“Yes, yes, that’s what I mean, girl. I wish you a long and happy life with many children and grandchildren!”

Every word he said was an apology and a blessing.

Zhao Shu also knew that they had no ill intentions, but just did something bad with good intentions. She did not blame them and smiled at them one by one.

After the misunderstanding was resolved and the truth came to light, the crowd dispersed.

Xie Jin reached out to hold Zhao Shu’s hand, but after noticing his move, Zhao Shu avoided his hand without leaving a trace and walked towards Zhao Xueying.

Zhao Xueying naturally saw this scene. Under normal circumstances, she might have taken the initiative to step forward to ease the atmosphere, but today she really disliked Xie Jin. Even though she had liked this man before, she still disliked him!
Zhao Xueying held Zhao Shu’s hand and secretly glared at Xie Jin, then held her head high and pulled Zhao Shu towards the east of the city.

Xie Jin looked at the empty seat beside him and frowned slightly, but still followed the two girls in front.

Zhao Xueying naturally knew that Xie Jin had followed her, so she snorted and pulled Zhao Shu to walk faster.

The jewelry store in the east of the city might have been newly opened, so there were girls constantly coming and going in the shop, making it quite lively.

Before the two of them entered the shop, they could already feel the girls in the shop looking at them shyly from time to time.

Zhao Shu was secretly suspicious and recalled her makeup today. There was nothing wrong with it.

Zhao Xueying looked at her expression and rolled her eyes, intending to let her see the truth for herself. She pulled her to the side, revealing the person behind her.

The people behind were completely exposed to everyone’s sight, and the girls’ eyes became more shy and coy.

Zhao Shu finally came to her senses and glanced at the clear and clean man indifferently.

Xie Jin noticed the gazes of those girls, and also noticed Zhao Shu’s gaze, and looked back at her deeply.

Just as Zhao Shu was wondering what his gaze just now meant, she saw the people who were the center of attention among the girls walking towards her step by step.

He stood in front of her, lowered his head and looked at her with a smile: “There are too many people inside, you wait here, I will buy it for you?” Zhao Shu glanced at the group of girls who were staring at her eagerly, and nodded obediently: “I want two hairpins, one for Xueying and one for me.”

Xie Jin’s eyes were full of her, and the corners of his mouth smiled gently: “Okay.”

Because Xie Jin had his back to the shop, the girls couldn’t see clearly what he and Zhao Shu said when he was talking to them. But looking at Xie Jin’s tall and thin back, they couldn’t help but look at Zhao Shu with a little envy in their eyes again.

Xie Jin walked into the shop. The girls’ eyes followed his figure carefully. They saw him standing in front of a transparent white jade orchid hairpin for a long time, then he took it in his palm with his knuckles and walked towards the checkout counter.

But halfway through his walk, he turned around and walked back, glanced casually at the other hairpins, picked one up at random, and then walked towards the checkout.

The shopkeeper handed him two wrapped hairpins. Xie Jin reached out to take them. Zhao Shu saw that just as he was about to leave the shop, a pretty girl stopped him.

Zhao Shu only saw Xie Jin lowering his head and saying something to the girl, and the girl looked over to her anxiously. After seeing Zhao Shu’s face clearly, her face froze and she made way with a red face.

Xie Jin walked up to Zhao Shu and handed her the wrapped white jade hairpin, and then handed the other hairpin in his hand to Zhao Xueying.

Zhao Xueying pursed her lips and opened the package without any expectation. Her eyes lit up when she saw the style of the hairpin, but when she glanced at Zhao Shu’s hairpin, she pursed her lips again and reluctantly accepted the hairpin in her hand.

Zhao Shu liked this hairpin very much. Seeing her delighted look, Xie Jin’s eyes flashed with a smile, and his lips curved slightly: “I’ll help you put it on?”

Zhao Shu looked up at him and nodded after a while: “Okay.”

Looking at the two people’s behavior as if no one was around, Zhao Xueying asked with a malicious intention: “Brother Jin, what were you talking about with that girl just now? The girl’s face was red.”

Xie Jin carefully inserted the hairpin into Zhao Shu’s hair. After it was inserted properly, he slowly answered: “The girl wanted me to help her choose a hairpin.” He lowered his eyes and looked at Zhao Shu, “but I refused. I told her that if I helped her choose a hairpin, my wife would be unhappy.”

Zhao Shu’s cheeks flushed, she lowered her eyes and said nothing, but Zhao Xueying snorted: “What a shame! You haven’t even married yet!”

Xie Jin: “It’s all the same, she will be my wife in the end.”

The time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day for their wedding.

The Zhao Mansion was hung with red silk and red lanterns, and every corner showed the festive atmosphere.

When Xie Jin came to pick up the bride, everyone stopped the door and let him go to the main hall.

Zhao Shu was wearing a red veil and a red wedding gown. The red veil covered the bride’s face, so her features could not be seen clearly. She walked towards Xie Jin with a graceful figure and elegant steps.

Xie Jin handed the wedding band to Zhao Shu and whispered, “My lady, I’m here to pick you up.”

The two of them each held one end of the wedding belt and walked hand in hand towards the Xuanping Marquis and his wife who were sitting in the main hall.

Xie Jin and the other person offered tea to the two people in turn. Zhao Yao felt very complicated at the moment. The little girl who always sat at the door with her chubby hands supporting her chin waiting for him to buy her candy when she was a child has grown up all of a sudden. She grew up alone under his neglect. In the future, she will be someone else’s wife. She will be very good to her children. She will be a very good mother. She will accompany and love her children as they grow up.

Zhao Yao lowered his eyes and drank the tea they handed him. Then he put the cup down and said, “In the future, you two must support each other through thick and thin. You must spend more time with each other in life.” He looked at Xie Jin, “You are a few years older than Shu’er, and you are much more mature than her mentally. If she does something imperfect in the future, please bear with her. If it really doesn’t work, bring her back and I will teach her.”

Zhao Shu’s eyes moved under the veil, and then she was calm again after a moment.

Xie Jin clasped his fists and bowed: “Don’t worry, father, Shu’er is fine. I will respect her, love her, and protect her, and will never let her suffer any grievances.”

Zhang Lanyin looked at Zhao Shu in her wedding gown, the tears in her eyes wet and dried, dried and wet again, and finally uttered: “You must be well in the future.”

Xie Jin knew that these words were not spoken to him. He turned to look at Zhao Shu, and saw his bride bowing weakly towards the main seat.

Xie Jin took Hong and Zhao Shu out of the door and put them into the bridal sedan. He then mounted his horse and took his bride home in high spirits.

Arriving at Xie’s house, the bridal sedan stopped, and a large hand with distinct joints reached in from outside the bridal sedan. Xie Jin said softly, “Shu’er, we’re here.”

Zhao Shu put her hand in his and let him lead her out of the bridal sedan.

Under the red veil, there are steps one after another, walking through the courtyard, through the corridor, all the way to the main hall.

The guests in the room looked at the newlyweds as they came in. They stood in front of their parents and as the shouts rang out, they both bent their waists towards them.

“Worship heaven and earth!”

“Two thanks to the high hall!”

“Couple greetings!”

“Send to the bridal chamber!”

The already festive hall suddenly became excited, and Zhao Shu was taken to the bridal chamber by Xie Jin amidst the cheers.

A few good friends and some relatives and elders gathered in the bridal chamber. A maid scattered longans, dates, peanuts and lotus seeds on the bridal bed, and then asked the two newlyweds to sit on the bed.

Xie Jin took the wedding scale and lifted Zhao Shu’s veil. The face under the veil was as rosy as a peach, and her eyes were sparkling.

Xie Jin looked at her deeply, and Zhao Shu couldn’t help blushing because the look was too wanton.

Amid the crowd’s cheers, a maid brought a bowl of dumplings to Xie Jin, who picked up a dumpling and fed it to Zhao Shu.

Zhao Shu took a bite and frowned.
Mammy looked at Zhao Shu’s reaction and asked with a smile, “Will you have the baby?”

Zhao Shu: “Life!”

A new wave of booing sounded again. Zhao Shu was slow to react to the booing. She lowered her head for a moment, too embarrassed to raise it.

After the process was completed, Xu Ping and others started to half-dragged and half-carried Xie Jin out of the bridal chamber. The bridal chamber returned to silence again, and Zhao Shu sat upright on the bed, motionless.

When the footsteps faded away, Zhao Shu’s tense back finally relaxed slightly.

Looking at the room hung with red silk and satin, Zhao Shu felt like she was getting married, and her already rosy cheeks became even hotter.

Zhao Shu waited quietly in the house. Outside the house was the noisy and lively sound of guests. After an unknown amount of time, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Zhao Shu quickly sat up straight and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing who was coming.

“You scared me to death, I thought it was someone else!”

Xie Jin closed the door, walked towards her, and said with a smile, “Are you that nervous?”

Zhao Shu rolled her eyes at him: “You don’t understand!”

Xie Jin sat down next to her and asked in a gentle voice, “I asked the servants to cook some shredded chicken noodles. Eat a few bites later to fill your stomach, or you won’t be able to make it through the night.”

Zhao Shu did not notice anything strange in his words. She just felt that what he said made sense. If she didn’t eat something now, would she wait until she woke up hungry in the middle of the night and asked the servants to cook for her? But how could a bride wake up hungry in the middle of the night and ask someone to cook for her on the first night after marrying into her husband’s family? If that was the case, would she still have the dignity to lose?

Zhao Shu nodded repeatedly, very grateful for his thoughtfulness.

The noodles were served quickly. Zhao Shu took the bowl handed to her by Xie Jin and couldn’t wait to pick up a bite with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.

This noodle may not look eye-catching, but it tastes very delicious!
Xie Jin noticed that Zhao Shu’s eyes had just lit up for a moment, and smiled, “In the past, if I came back late and couldn’t make it to dinner, I would ask the servants to prepare a bowl of shredded chicken noodles.”

Zhao Shu was busy eating noodles and had no time to pay attention to him. She only responded vaguely: “Yeah.”

After Zhao Shu finished the whole bowl of noodles, she felt a little bloated. Just as she was about to stand up and walk around, she was pulled back by someone next to her.

Zhao Shu looked at him suspiciously: “What’s wrong?”

Xie Jin: “Where are you going?”

Zhao Shu: “I’m full, let me stand up and walk around.”

Xie Jin: “No need.”

Zhao Shu: “What don’t you need?”

Xie Jin: “We have something to do later that will require a lot of energy, so there’s no need to digest the food now.”

Zhao Shu was shocked. Wasn’t today their wedding day? Why did they have to do manual labor?

She asked cautiously, “What are we going to do next?”

Xie Jin: “On our wedding night, with all the beautiful scenery, what do you think we will do?”

These words were too ambiguous, but it was also these straightforward and obscure words that made Zhao Shu suddenly realize.

Oh, that’s what it was!
Zhao Shu turned around and swept the things off the bed. She kicked off her shoes and climbed onto the bed swiftly. She lay on her back with her legs spread out, and said like a brave man going to his death, “Come on!”

Xie Jin stared at her steadily, and suddenly, a chuckle escaped from his mouth. Everyone thought he would stop in time, but he laughed louder and louder, and happier and happier, as if someone had poked his funny bone.

Zhao Shu was laughed at so hard that her face turned red and she became angry. She grabbed the quilt on one side and covered herself with it hastily. Her muffled voice came from under the quilt: “I’m very tired today. I don’t have the energy to do anything else. I’m going to sleep!”

Xie Jin also knew that he was a little too arrogant, so he quickly swallowed the laughter that was rolling in his throat, pinched the top of the quilt with both hands, and sincerely admitted his mistake: “My wife, I was wrong.”

As he said this, he wanted to pull the quilt off Zhao Shu, but Zhao Shu refused. She still held the quilt tightly with both hands and could not pull it off no matter how hard Xie Jin tried.

Xie Jin had no choice but to lean over the quilt and coaxed in a low voice: “Be good, open the quilt, I will listen to you tonight.”

After a long time, a voice came from under the quilt again: “Really? You will listen to me whatever I say?”

Xie Jin: “Really.”

Zhao Shu: “Well, let’s rest now.” Feeling the person outside the quilt pulling the quilt, she quickly explained, “Hey, I mean just rest!”

The movement outside stopped for a while before he said, “Except for this, I will listen to you on everything else.”

Zhao Shu rolled her eyes and muttered quietly, “Liar!”

Xie Jin: “Are you sure you don’t want to open the quilt?”

Zhao Shu responded firmly: “Sure!”

Xie Jin: “Okay.”

There was no movement outside the quilt. Zhao Shu was a little uncomfortable for a moment and thought, is it gone just like that?
So easy to talk to?
But she was too naive after all. The next second, her ankle was grabbed by a big warm hand, and then a strong force came from her ankle, and she was pulled over.

Zhao Shu screamed, and before she could react, she was pulled off the quilt. A black line covered her head, and she closed her eyes in fear.

Xie Jin’s face was only a finger’s distance away from hers. The hot air sprinkled on Zhao Shu’s face, causing her to shiver.

At first, Xie Jin was looking at her with a smile, but slowly the smile on his face faded, and he looked at the person under him with a knowing look.

Zhao Shu felt as if a thorn in her back. She mustered up the courage to open her eyes, but just as she opened her eyes a crack, a warm touch landed on her cheek.

Zhao Shu suddenly opened her eyes and stared blankly at the person above her head.

Xie Jin kept moving, kissing her from the cheek to the eye, then from the eye to the nose, and slowly down to the corner of the mouth, chin, neck
Zhao Shu raised her head and stretched her legs straight. She gently wrapped her arms around Xie Jin’s waist and whispered, “I, I’m scared.”

Xie Jin stopped and looked up at her. His eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

Zhao Shu thought unconsciously, I’m scared because you are here.

Xie Jin stood up, raised her hand to lower the curtain, and the wedding bed instantly became dark. Their bodies touched again, and Xie Jin’s lips were scorching hot!
The red candle shed tears and the curtains swayed.

It was dark, and the night was still long.
