Chapter 85 He May Really Like Her
Lu Jiangnian had heard before that one should not easily accompany a woman shopping.
He has a deep understanding of this today.
Yuan Wanru went to the cosmetics shop first, and it took her a full hour just to pick out small items like powder and rouge.
Only then did he realize that the materials used for makeup powder include rice powder, lead powder, pearl powder, and powder made from various plants. It is diverse and very particular.
There was a constant stream of women coming and going, and as a grown man, he felt out of place.
Helplessly, he could only wait quietly outside.
After finally waiting for her to leave the store with a lot of bags, she said that the indigo in this store was not good and went to choose from another store.
So they turned another street and found another rouge shop.
Here, picking and choosing spent another half an hour.
Seeing that the time for the banquet was approaching, Lu Jiangnian asked Shi Hai to take the things Yuan Wanru bought back to the mansion first, and the couple went directly to the Fifth Prince's mansion.
Sitting in the carriage, Lu Jiangnian said meaningfully: "You are tiring yourself out by running away like this. After the wedding banquet, we still have to go back home."
"When the time comes, you will be unable to avoid it."
Yuan Wanru has calmed down now.
"My husband, what do you mean by escape? I don't understand."
"However, I remembered that matter and need to set a time with my husband."
Lu Jiangnian raised his eyebrows: "What is it?"
She glared at him and said, "If you don't remember what you mentioned in Hongxiufang, then it doesn't count."
He laughed particularly happily, and his deep laughter echoed in the small carriage, making her ears a little red.
"So it's about some sweet talk with my wife."
"That won't do. If you regret it, don't blame me for being too presumptuous."
"My lady, you really don't understand romance. I, Lu Jiangnian, am a man of blood and spirit, and you don't have any feelings for me at all?"
He suddenly sat down next to her, stretched out his slender fingers, and stroked her earlobe, which was small and fleshy and very delicious.
"I've been thinking about my wife day and night lately."
Lu Jiangnian has now completely let himself go.
When the men in the military camp have nothing to do, they talk most about women.
I used to hear them say that when their wives were displeased and wouldn’t let them get on the bed, they would say anything shameless.
When a couple is together, practicality is the most important thing, and face should be put aside.
He is now putting this into practice.
If you want a woman, you can’t have shame.
The man who was usually serious, solemn and cold now had a hint of evil charm, which was really irresistible.
She suspected she had read a fake book.
The heroine is not as kind-hearted and righteous as described in the book.
The male protagonist is even more outrageous. He is supposed to be a calm and steady gentleman who can remain calm in the face of temptation, but recently he has suddenly become a playboy who steals ladies and teases women.
She felt a little powerless and pulled off his dishonest hand: "If you continue like this, there will be nothing tonight."
He paused, slowly withdrew his hand, and looked at her quietly with deep eyes.
Yuan Wanru's cheeks flushed, and she glared at him in dissatisfaction: "I declare here that this matter will not count after tonight, and you are not allowed to cheat. If you don't agree, then I won't admit it."
Lu Jiangnian blew a breath in her ear: "Listen to my wife, I will kiss you tonight."
The man's handsome face had perfect lines, thin lips and phoenix eyes. His dark eyes were ink-black, as if there was a whirlpool that was about to suck her in.
"oh."
She was silent for a while before responding faintly.
I feel tired.
She simply closed her eyes and stopped looking at him.
Lu Jiangnian took advantage of the situation and held her in front of him: "My dear, if you are tired, just lean on me and rest for a while. I will wake you up when we get there."
Yuan Wanru didn't want to pay attention to him and didn't struggle. The carriage was shaking, and she was tired from shopping today, so she actually fell asleep.
He looked down at her. The girl nestled quietly in his arms. Her dress was spread on the stool. It was exquisite and gorgeous, making her look even more beautiful.
There was some fatigue on her face and her breathing gradually became steady.
Fell asleep.
Only at this moment did he dare to place his fingertips on her cheek, so soft and warm.
At this moment, he began to believe what the prince said.
Maybe he really fell in love with her.
·
When Yuan Wanru woke up, she was still in a trance for a moment.
It's very quiet around, where is she?
A familiar voice came from above: "Are you awake?"
She looked up at him. She had just woken up, with misty eyes and an ignorant look that softened his heart.
Yuan Wanru stood up from his arms and calmly adjusted her dress without looking at him: "Call Liu Yan up and help me comb my hair again."
He didn't argue: "Well, no hurry, we are not too late."
It doesn’t matter if it’s late, the real fun hasn’t started yet.
Murong Ji will definitely not let him down tonight.
The fifth prince was deeply favored, and his wedding ceremony was held with exceptional grandness.
According to royal etiquette, the Ministry of Rites sent the proper betrothal gifts to the crown prince's wife. Lady Zhaohua had been favored for many years, so she deliberately gave her a lot more.
All kinds of silks, satins, gold, silver and jewelry were carried into the prince's palace like water. No wonder Sun Huanzhi said that it was comparable to the prince's wedding banquet.
Lu Jiangnian looked at the piles of dowry passing by in front of him like a long dragon, his eyes full of sarcasm.
Not only that, the ceremonial officer also personally brought the gifts bestowed by the emperor, which were obviously more than those for other princes. This favoritism was clearly displayed in front of everyone.
The road was covered with red silk, as if the entire capital city was celebrating.
The first time Yuan Wanru saw the Fifth Prince, he was riding his horse in front of the bridal sedan, his face full of joy, and he looked naturally good.
However, Yuan Wanru felt that she was still a little inferior to the Crown Prince and Lu Jiangnian.
Money was scattered everywhere, and people watching on the street were unable to pick it up quickly because there was so much of it.
In response to so much wedding money, everyone kept saying nice things and blessings were heard one after another.
The bride was taken out of the bridal sedan, wearing her wedding dress, which was dazzling.
It was quite far away and Yuan Wanru couldn't see clearly, but she knew that at this time, the Fifth Prince was already holding the bride's hand and preparing to enter the palace.
Seeing her stretching her neck to look around, Lu Jiangnian's eyes flashed with a smile. He came closer and asked, "Do you want me to hold you up so I can see more clearly?"
Yuan Wanru quickly shook her head. She didn't want to be in the spotlight like this.
He smiled, and looked through the layers of people at Murong Ji opposite him. The latter had a sneer on his lips and an inexplicable expression.
Lu Jiangnian guessed that the people from the Ministry of Justice should be here.
Sure enough, at this moment, a loud voice drowned out all the noise.
"The Ministry of Justice is arresting criminals. All irrelevant people, please leave immediately."
These words were like pressing the pause button, and all the excitement suddenly became quiet.
The place was clearly full of people, but everyone fell silent and looked at the newcomer.
Who on earth is so fearless that he would arrest people in such a situation?
Big guts, but no brains!
