"Qin Zheng..."
Ye Yun had so much to say at that moment, but the words just wouldn't come out, and she didn't know which sentence to say first.
Qin Zheng saw her excitement and misunderstood once again.
He silently pushed the plate on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) further in. The plate contained some fish and meat that he had carefully selected at the banquet, as well as a brand-new white steamed bun. Then, without saying a word, he turned and walked out.
I heard that brides get up early and don't get to eat, so the fish and meat should fill her stomach.
White steamed buns are a rare sight, and the fish is carefully deboned and arranged neatly on the plate. To make sure it doesn't look too appealing, it's drizzled with a tempting vinegar sauce, showing how meticulous the person who prepared this dish was.
Outsiders all say that Qin Zheng is a local bully, but only she knows how meticulous he is in private.
The creaking sound of the dilapidated wooden door being pulled open brought Ye Yun back to her senses. She looked up and saw the man's back as he prepared to leave.
Where are you going?
She asked hurriedly.
Qin Zheng paused in his action of pulling the door open, without turning his head, and said, "Toast."
He still had to go through the proper formalities, but he knew Ye Yun wouldn't accompany him.
Originally, he was happy to get married.
The Ye family owed them a debt of gratitude. His grandfather and the Ye family patriarch were old friends. He sacrificed himself to save the Ye family patriarch back then. Unexpectedly, his mother used this as leverage to force him to marry a young woman from the Ye family.
Before this, he only wanted his mother to go to the Ye family to ask about the situation briefly.
After all, such a big event as marriage is usually handled by parents and matchmakers. Who would have thought that his mother would take it upon herself to make the decision and set it off so easily?
When he saw Ye Yun enter the room dazed, he realized how unwilling she was to marry him.
Ye Yun has someone in her heart.
He only found out about this himself.
"Who doesn't bring the bride when toasting?" Ye Yun couldn't bear to let the man continue to misunderstand, so she hurriedly got out of bed, lifted her red dress, and rushed to his side. "Qin Zheng, where did you put me?"
The soft little hand touched the hardened large palm, and the man's tall body visibly trembled.
Qin Zheng seemed unable to believe his eyes, glancing sideways at Ye Yun, who was half a head shorter than him, his eyes filled with inquiry. Was she unwilling to marry him?
A cool breeze, carrying the scent of locust blossoms in May, blew in through the crack in the door, lifting Ye Yun's bangs.
Sunlight shone on her sickly pale face. With bright eyes and white teeth, she stared intently at Qin Zheng, a thousand words written in her clear eyes. In this life, she would never let this man down again.
"You don't have to do this." Qin Zheng's expression gradually dimmed.
He believed that Ye Yun was only trying to please him temporarily. He was a scoundrel with a bad reputation, and it was understandable that a girl like her, who was beautiful, had a good figure, and was well-educated, would not want to marry him. He guessed that she was afraid of him and was trying to appease him temporarily. He knew that she would leave eventually.
Thinking of this, Qin Zheng simply said, "If you show yourself less often, others will see you less often, and it will be easier for you to get married in the future."
He said he wouldn't bother her, and he didn't.
Even at this point, he was still considering her needs in every way.
Ye Yun couldn't hide the stinging in her nose. She lowered her head, grabbed the man's large hand, and whispered a complaint: "What nonsense are you talking about..."
"truth."
"Qin Zheng, do you not want to marry me?" Ye Yun couldn't get through to him, so she simply snapped and took the initiative.
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng's pupils contracted almost imperceptibly. "You..."
Clang!
The door was kicked open, but luckily Qin Zheng reacted quickly and pulled Ye Yun away.
His large hand enveloped her slender waist, which could be easily encircled. Through the thin dress, her delicate skin seemed to be able to feel the calluses on his palm. The hot breath that flashed past her ear made Ye Yun's face burn.
The next second.
The matchmaker rushed into the house in a panic. Upon seeing the two of them, she immediately widened her eyes and shouted, "Qin Zheng, come out quickly! That damned Zhao Wensheng is here to steal the bride!"
