Chapter 298 Newly Married 3
Although Su Qingwan was tired after a day's sleep, she didn't sleep very deeply. She woke up when Lu Jing sat beside the bed. She had taken off her phoenix crown and pearl hairpins, and was wearing a heavy wedding dress. Her cheeks were red from sleep, as if she had applied the best rouge. Looking at a beauty under the lamp, she was even more beautiful and breathtaking. Su Qingwan blushed a little when he looked at her, "Didn't Zhou Jingming and Li An stop you from drinking?"
Lu Jing smiled at her, and Su Qingwan was a little dazed. How to say it? It was a bit like a fool who had lost his mind and was fooled by a string of candied haws to go home.
Su Qingwan raised a finger and shook it in front of him, "What number is this?"
"Madam..." Lu Jing opened his arms and held her in his arms, resting his head on her shoulder. The smell of alcohol and heat rose up, mixing into the melody of his heartbeat.
Su Qingwan touched his face and neck, which were a little hot. She smiled and said, "My Lord, are you a good drinker? Don't act crazy when drunk, or others will laugh at you."
"You're a good drinker!" Lu Jing said firmly, holding her tightly with his arms like a clamp, as if he was afraid that she would escape. Su Qingwan couldn't help laughing, and whispered to Qingyun to prepare hot water for him to wash.
Qingyun thought to himself that there were really no taboos on the wedding day of the prince and the girl. They didn't even drink the wedding wine, and there were no auspicious words. It would be fine if the girl didn't care, but the prince didn't care at all either.
Lu Jing was really a little drunk. Qingyun prepared hot water and Su Qingwan pushed him to wash up. "Stop pretending. You reek of alcohol. Go wash up."
Lu Jing, "..."
Seen through!
He was drunk, but he was not unconscious. When he thought that they had been married and Su Qingwan would be his wife from now on, Lu Jing felt a secret excitement.
He was urged by Su Qingwan to wash up, and when he came back quickly, he had changed into a thin red inner garment. Su Qingwan sat upright at the head of the bed. She really didn't want to wear the phoenix crown. Otherwise, she would have wanted to wear the phoenix crown, cover her head with a veil, and go through the wedding process.
Lu Jing looked at her and laughed. Su Qingwan blushed and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I want to laugh when I see you."
Su Qingwan also smiled, and Lu Jing's heart softened. He brought the wedding wine over. They were supposed to drink the wedding wine under the guidance of the matchmaker, but now the bridal chamber was very quiet, with the sound of a pin drop. There seemed to be no movement in the entire palace, only the sound of each other's heartbeats and breathing.
When they were drinking the wedding wine, Lu Jing's eyes were always on her, just like the rose branches that entangled on the wall that night, entwining the roots to absorb nutrients and nourish the beautiful flowers. Su Qingwan couldn't avoid his focused gaze, which was hot and there was no place to hide. She could feel his joy.
The joy of his long-cherished wish coming true was reflected in his eyes and conveyed to her. Lu Jing always gave people the impression of being cold and lonely, but when he was funny, his emotions were so contagious.
Just like that, I suddenly became happy.
"Xiao Wu, I'm very happy." Lu Jing held her hand. "Before the wedding, I was always worried and anxious, afraid of accidents, afraid that you would suddenly regret it, and afraid that fate would play tricks on me and something unexpected would happen. It was not until we bowed to our parents and watched you walk into the bridal chamber that I felt that we were finally married. Being able to marry you is my most dreamed desire. I have never been so happy for a moment."
His emotions were rarely revealed, and they were so passionate, as if he wanted to peel open his heart and carve her name on it, telling her how much he longed to hold her hand and grow old with her.
Su Qingwan had hoped to live with him with respect for the rest of her life, so she was particularly moved to hear his passionate and frank admiration for her. It seemed as if their fake play had really become real.
"I'm happy too!" Su Qingwan leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, "Lu Jing, I'm also very happy to marry you."
This was her truth, she had never denied it and she had never lied about it.
A kiss as light as a feather brushed across her cheek, like a soft, sweet fragrance blowing towards her face. Lu Jing's eyes changed instantly, becoming hot and intense. He put his arms around Su Qingwan's waist, pulled her towards him, and kissed her deeply on the lips.
Sealed with a kiss, lingering and passionate, Su Qingwan could still smell a faint scent of alcohol. She thought the concentration of the wedding wine was too strong and she was a little drunk. Lu Jing pressed her tightly into the soft quilt, as if she was wrapped in clouds, light and floating.
The complicated wedding dress fell on the bed as the nimble fingers shuttled through it. The sound of their blending was vague and ambiguous in the night. The dragon and phoenix candles burned all night long.
…
The next day, Su Qingwan slept until noon and still felt a little dizzy when she woke up. Her body felt as if it had been crushed by a heavy object and the discomfort was extremely strong. Lu Jing was not in the bridal chamber. There was only a rose bud lying beside the pillow, with morning dew still on it. Su Qingwan smiled slightly, he was quite romantic.
But when she thought of the wolf-like plundering at night, Su Qingwan frowned slightly, and forgot everything her aunt had told her. She couldn't even remember that she had indulged him in mischief, and now she was the one suffering.
"Girl, are you awake?"
Su Qingwan was a little shy. After she put on her inner clothes, Qingyun brought a maid to help her wash and dress, and put on her newly made palace dress. She didn't like overly bright colors, but as a newlywed, she wore something very gorgeous and eye-catching.
"Where's the prince?"
"Li An came to see the prince, apparently on official business."
"Oh no, at this time..." Su Qingwan's face changed slightly, "I should serve tea to my mother, what time is it?"
Qingyun smiled and said, "The prince has official business to attend to. He said he has no time to serve tea, so he postponed it to the afternoon."
Su Qingwan, "..."
This was obviously an excuse to help her out. Su Qingwan's ears turned red as if they were bleeding. This was too embarrassing. How could a bride sleep so well at this time and not get up to serve tea? If this got out, people would criticize her. How busy could Lu Jing be with his official duties? He didn't even have time to serve tea. It was obvious that he was trying to fool his elders.
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
"The prince has told us not to disturb you, and we dare not do that!" Qingyun smiled playfully and ambiguously, "Miss...oh, you should call me princess now. I have sent someone to inform the prince, and he will be here soon. It doesn't matter if you serve tea a little later. Since you are marrying the prince, Zhang will definitely be able to drink the wife's tea.
As soon as Qingyun finished speaking, Lu Jing came back.
He had an upright posture, a jade crown on his head, and was dressed like an elegant gentleman. He did not look as intimidating as he usually did when he wore the prince's clothes. He looked several years younger and full of vigor and vitality.
The two looked at each other. Su Qingwan felt a little hot on her face as she thought of last night. Lu Jing was frank and sat over. "If you are tired, we can serve tea during dinner."
Su Qingwan, "?"
Do you want me to be stabbed in the back?
How dare you say that!
Lu Jing also noticed Su Qingwan's dissatisfaction from her resentful eyes. He lowered his head and smiled, took her hand and walked out, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
