Before everyone could even put their best into it, Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu had already taken the initiative, moving among the tables.
Qin Jiyuan walked briskly, warmly toasting with the guests at each table. His bold drinking style instantly enlivened the atmosphere.
Qin Qianyu, on the other hand, was all smiles and her eyes were full of warmth. She always knew how to chat with the guests at just the right time, making everyone enjoy themselves.
These two men had an amazing capacity for alcohol. They accepted every toast from the guests, chatting and laughing as they downed glass after glass of wine.
After several rounds of intense drinking, the officials and their families who originally wanted to get the newcomers drunk were now flushed red like ripe tomatoes.
Their steps were unsteady, and they could barely stand. Some even had glazed eyes and began to speak incoherently.
Lin Ruoqing watched all of this quietly from the side, taking in everyone's state of mind.
Seeing that Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu were also drunk and staggering, she immediately ordered the servant beside her to summon several strong servants.
Before long, the servants stepped forward quickly, one on each side, and steadily supported Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu, slowly walking them towards the room.
The drunken guests, supported by their attendants, staggered and swayed as they left the Prince Zhao's residence.
The moonlight shone on them, casting long shadows.
They kept muttering words of blessing, and although their steps were unsteady, everyone's face was filled with heartfelt joy.
The Emperor also had a few drinks at this lively banquet, and was now slightly tipsy, with a hazy look in his eyes and a faint blush on his face.
The Empress stood to one side, dressed in magnificent attire, with dignified bearing and eyes full of tenderness and affection.
She gently took the emperor's arm, her movements soft and natural, and led him away slowly.
The moonlight, like water, quietly shone on their departing figures, bringing a warm and beautiful end to this grand and perfect wedding.
With smiles on their faces and sincere blessings, the guests took their leave one after another, their steps slightly tipsy.
Inside the Prince's mansion, the lively noise gradually receded like the tide, leaving only a gentle evening breeze that drifted leisurely through the courtyard.
It rustles softly through the lush treetops, as if whispering the tranquility and gentleness of the night.
The two walked slowly back to their room along the familiar corridor. The moment the door closed quietly behind them, it was as if an invisible barrier shut out all the disturbances of the outside world.
Inside the room, the candlelight flickered gently, and the dancing light and shadows danced freely on the walls, illuminating the surroundings in a warm and hazy way.
In the quiet space, only the rapid beating of their hearts could be heard more clearly in the silence.
As if guided by fate, they slowly turned around, their gazes meeting in the air, their eyes overflowing with deep affection.
Shyness, like the thin mist of a spring morning, spreads quietly and imperceptibly.
An ambiguous atmosphere, like the rising fragrance of sandalwood, drifted freely through the room, blending with the flickering candlelight to create an even more tender and alluring ambiance.
Su Jinyun was the first to break the silence, her eyes slightly red, filled with unconcealed love.
She raised her hand, her movements as gentle as if she were touching a rare treasure, her fingertips trembling slightly as she lightly stroked Qin Qianluo's cheek.
Her voice was as gentle as the warmest spring breeze, "Qianluo, you look so beautiful today, so beautiful that I can't take my eyes off you."
Qin Qianluo's cheeks flushed instantly, like the magnificent clouds dyed by the setting sun on the horizon. That captivating red quickly spread from her cheeks to her ears.
She lowered her head slightly, her long eyelashes fluttering gently like butterfly wings, her voice soft and sweet like the most touching murmur in spring, with a touch of girlish coquettishness.
"Sister Su looks beautiful today, the most beautiful I have ever seen in my life. My heart and eyes are filled with joy, the joy of being able to spend the rest of my life with you."
The light inside filtered through the thin, misty red curtains, casting dreamy and hazy shadows, making the ambiguous atmosphere even more intense and palpable.
The two seemed to be drawn together by an invisible red thread, unable to resist slowly drawing closer.
Their heartbeats were rapid, like a dense war drumbeat, pounding against their burning hearts.
Their cheeks grew redder and redder, as if ignited by the most ardent love in the world, burning like flames.
Until their warm breaths gently brushed against each other's cheeks, those wisps of warmth, like feathers, stirred their heartstrings.
Su Jinyun slowly moved her hand away from Qin Qianluo's cheek, her fingertips gently tracing her delicate temples.
The delicate touch made her pause slightly, her movements filled with deep affection and longing.
At the same time, she tilted her head slightly, filled with endless longing and yearning, and her lips gradually pressed against his, gently touching him.
In that instant, time seemed to stand still, the whole world seemed to disappear, leaving only their intense heartbeats and burning love.
(The rest will be updated tomorrow. The author has a mischievous idea up his sleeve, hahaha.)
