She slowly raised her hand, the ceremonial talisman in her hand carrying her anticipation and nervousness, and gently lifted the red veil from Qin Qianluo's head.
In an instant, Qin Qianluo's exquisite and flawless face came into view.
The flickering candlelight illuminated her exquisite features; beneath her arched eyebrows, her eyes held deep affection, and her skin, as white as snow, was as smooth and lustrous as mutton fat jade.
Su Jinyun, whose face was already veiled by a light gauze, caught her breath and felt her heart pounding like thunder when she saw this scene through the hazy red veil.
She felt as if everything in the world had lost its color at that moment, and all that remained before her eyes was Qin Qianluo's stunningly beautiful face, so beautiful that she almost dared not breathe, for fear of disturbing this dreamlike beauty.
The red candles flickered, reflecting the glow of the character for "double happiness." As the auspicious symbol was gently lifted, the rich and vibrant red before Qin Qianluo's eyes slowly faded.
It was as if a mysterious scroll had been unveiled, revealing Su Jinyun veiled in red gauze.
The red veil, thin as smoke, perfectly obscured her eyebrows and features.
Beneath the red veil, Su Jinyun's slightly lowered eyes could be vaguely seen, like two tranquil autumn pools, concealing shyness and anticipation.
Her delicate nose tip glowed with a faint pink hue in the candlelight; and her slightly pursed lips resembled the first blossoms of a flower in spring, naturally rosy without any adornment.
This half-concealed appearance outlines endless grace and tenderness, making it impossible to look away.
Looking at the dreamlike scene before her, Qin Qianluo's throat tightened instantly, as if something was choking her, and she subconsciously swallowed.
Hot blood rushed to her cheeks, burning them into a vibrant crimson.
Her hands trembled slightly uncontrollably, causing the ceremonial plaque in her hand to sway gently, revealing the turmoil deep within her heart.
Scenes of his past interactions with Su Jinyun flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern: the first time they met, Su Jinyun's stunning glimpse amidst the blooming flowers.
It was the gentle smile she unconsciously revealed when they were together. Now, these memories intertwined with the beautiful woman before her, making Qin Qianluo's heart burn even hotter.
Awakened from her reverie by the maid's gentle, spring-like reminder, Qin Qianluo took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
Her fingertips turned slightly white as she tightly gripped the ceremonial plaque. She slowly raised her hand, her movements filled with tenderness and care, as if she were touching the most precious treasure in the world.
As the red veil was gradually lifted, Su Jinyun's dreamlike face became clearer.
The candlelight danced on her exquisite and elaborate phoenix coronet and wedding gown, reflecting a dazzling brilliance. Every sway of the pearls and jade ornaments was crisp and melodious, as if cheering for this grand union.
Each thread is exquisitely detailed, as if telling a story of sweetness and happiness at this moment.
The two sat quietly, gazing at each other, their eyes meeting, a thousand words unspoken.
The surrounding noise, the laughter of the guests, and the festive music all seemed to quietly disappear.
The whole world was reduced to the other's face, and to two hearts beating wildly with love.
A mix of nervousness and excitement caused their Adam's apples to bob slightly involuntarily, and their breathing to become rapid.
The ceremonial plaque slipped from his hand without him noticing, tracing a brief arc in the air.
Fortunately, the maid was quick-witted and nimbly reached out to catch the falling wedding ceremonial tablet. She then gently reminded the prince and princess, "Your Highness and Your Highness, it's time to drink the nuptial wine."
The warm yellow candlelight flickered gently in the new house, the leaping flames reflecting the large red "double happiness" characters on the wall, filling the room with a warm and sweet ambiance.
The two slowly snapped out of their deep, affectionate gaze, as if waking from a beautiful dream, and a shy yet happy smile appeared on their faces.
Like flowers blooming on branches in spring, bright and beautiful.
They exchanged a glance, their eyes meeting with a tenderness and unspoken understanding that flowed in the air. Then, in perfect unison, they reached out and accepted the glass wine cup respectfully offered by the maid.
The glass wine vessel gleamed with a warm luster under the flickering candlelight, as clear and translucent as their pure love at that moment.
The fine wine in the goblet was crystal clear, and its rich and mellow aroma wafted through the air, instantly filling the entire new house and captivating the senses.
The two men gently raised their wrists, tilted their long necks back slightly, and drank the wine in one gulp.
The spicy yet mellow liquor slid slowly down their throats, the warmth spreading all the way to their hearts, just like the overflowing happiness they felt at that moment.
According to the Chengxiao custom, it is an essential part of the wedding night for the newlyweds to enter the bridal chamber and for relatives and friends to make a lively scene.
Just as the two stepped into the bridal chamber hand in hand, Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu quickly stood in front of the door, like two dignified yet approachable door gods.
Qin Jiyuan was tall and upright, with broad shoulders that seemed capable of supporting the sky. He stood there with his posture upright, his face bearing his usual cheerful smile, but his eyes were firm and powerful.
Qin Qianyu, on the other hand, is graceful and has a lively and clever look in her eyes. Although she has a smile on her face, she exudes an aura that makes it difficult for people to approach her.
They steadily stopped the guests who were eager to cause trouble.
Qin Jiyuan clasped his hands together and repeatedly bowed to the crowd in apology, his smile sincere and earnest.
Qin Qianyu cooperated from the side, sometimes nodding and sometimes making soothing gestures. After a lot of patient maneuvering, she finally managed to dissuade everyone from making a ruckus in the bridal chamber.
When the two changed into comfortable casual clothes, walked hand in hand out of the bridal chamber, and came to toast the guests, the lively atmosphere of the banquet was reignited.
The guests gathered around, their faces beaming with blessings and their hands holding wine glasses. The "plan" of getting people drunk was once again stirring in everyone's hearts.
