"Angry?" Xie Wan Ning looked at her hands for a while and said calmly, "I think I should be the one who is angry."

Pei Yuqing didn't say anything for a moment. He found that whatever he said now seemed to be wrong.

The room fell silent, the two of them were so close that they could hear each other's breathing.

After a long while, he spoke with difficulty, "I was wrong about this matter."

He shouldn't be so self-righteous as to think that doing so would make Lu Ziyan give up completely, which would be good for the three of them.

Pei Yuqing raised his arm and wanted to hold the hand of the girl beside the couch, but she gently raised her hand to avoid him.

He froze for a moment, then withdrew his hand with a wry smile and said, "I expected a lot, but I didn't expect him to be so stubborn."

Given Lu Ziyan's usual external image, who would have thought that he would be so shameless for a girl.

Even after she clearly refused, he still refused to let go.

"Now not only do you know, but everyone in the capital knows everything that should be known," Xie Wan Ning said in a mocking tone, "My ex-fiancé made a scene in the bridal chamber. How can I face your parents and relatives tomorrow?"

When the bride gets married, she will have to offer tea to her parents-in-law tomorrow morning and meet many relatives of the Pei family. What will they think of her?

Their marriage was granted by the emperor, and they had to go to the palace to express their gratitude.

Thinking of this, Xie Wan Ning couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

Where does he put her by doing this?

She trusted him so much, but he totally ignored her feelings. How was that different from stabbing her in the back?

The little girl's eyes were misty, as if she would cry in the next second. Pei Yuqing's heart suddenly tightened, feeling sore and painful. He reached out to hug her in his arms, but as soon as he raised his hand, Xie Wan Ning moved aside.

For the first time, Pei Yuqing understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.

He began to regret why he did this.

Tonight should have been their wedding night. If Lu Ziyan hadn't come back, this girl wouldn't have refused to let him hug her...

Thinking of this, he was even more annoyed, but he still patiently comforted her, "Don't worry about that. You are my legitimate wife, no one will say anything to you. As for my parents...

He paused and carefully expressed his feelings: "You are the girl I like. They will only treat you well and will never make things difficult for you."

If it were normal times, if he said something like this, Xie Wan Ning would definitely be very happy, but at this moment, she just said "oh" lightly.

"Make way."

Pei Yuqing was stunned and moved in obediently.

Xie Wan Ning lifted the quilt and lay down on the bed.

The person who warmed the bed was right beside her. The place where she lay was filled with his body temperature, and every breath she took was filled with his scent...

Apart from those bizarre dreams, this was the first time she shared a bed with a man.

It was not until this moment that Xie Wan Ning truly realized what getting married meant and what decision she had made.

If nothing unexpected happens, from now on she will sleep in the same bed with the man beside her for the rest of her life, surrounded by his scent forever, and they will live and die together.

Thinking of this, Xie Wan Ning felt a little lost.

However, Pei Yuqing's heart was beating wildly. His beloved girl was lying in the same bed with him so legitimately. She did not regret it in the end. Facing Lu Ziyan's kneeling begging, she still firmly chose him.

He took a deep breath and eventually fell asleep as well.

The two of them lay there quietly for a while. The fragrance of the girl's body kept rushing into his nostrils. Pei Yuqing swallowed and looked at the girl's face.

The beauty in the tent is as white as jade, with her lips slightly pursed. Just half of her profile can make people's heart beat irregularly. There is a hint of red under her eyelids. She is a baby who has been wronged and is waiting to be coaxed.

This is his wife...

This realization made Pei Yuqing's heart feel soft and hot. He just wanted to hold the person in his arms and love him with all his strength.

But I couldn't tell whether the girl was still angry or not, and I didn't dare let her get angry with me again.

In the silence, he couldn't help himself and tentatively reached out to touch her shoulder, but just as he did so, the little girl suddenly turned over to avoid his touch, lying on her side with her back to him.

“…” Pei Yuqing’s gaze fell on her delicate neck, his eyes dark.

This was the third time she rejected his approach tonight, and it was after Lu Ziyan showed up...

The house fell into complete silence.

…………

No matter how long the night is, it will eventually pass. The sky will gradually turn pale and the morning sun will peek out little by little.

Xie Wan Ning opened her eyes and saw a smooth chest.

She was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised her head and met a handsome face.

Pei Yuqing was still sleeping, her thick eyelashes drooping on her eyelids, casting a shadow, her nose was straight, and her chin was faintly blue.

His face, with some stubble, still looked very clean, and he didn't look like a man in his twenties at all.

Xie Wan Ning looked at him for a while, then her gaze slowly slid down to his chest.

...She unbuttoned her clothes last night, but this person didn’t button them up?

She was very angry at the time, and all she could think about was that he made her so angry, so he should have been there with her.

Driven by anger, he actually did something like taking off someone's clothes...

Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips, and when she raised her eyes again, she met a pair of deep eyes.

Seeing her looking over, Pei Yuqing's eyes suddenly softened and he smiled, "Did you sleep well?"

The smile was as gentle as before, just as if last night was calm and there was no barrier between them.

But in reality, they didn’t even consummate their marriage.

Xie Wan Ning looked at him steadily, somewhat confused as to why this man could still smile when they had not consummated their marriage.

Doesn't he like her?
