"It's so late, let's rest."
Before she could get up, Zhao Shi'an stopped her.
"My wife, have you forgotten something?"
"Um?"
Fang Qing looked at Zhao Shi'an's face in the candlelight.
The weather warms up in March, but it's still a bit chilly at night.
Zhao Shi'an's cheeks were a little red at this moment, it was hard to tell whether it was from the cold or from drinking.
"We haven't had our wedding banquet yet."
Fang Qing almost forgot about this.
Bring over the wine pot tied with red silk, and Fang Qing poured a cup for each of them.
After finishing her drink, Fang Qing looked at him.
"Isn't that better now?"
Zhao Shi'an responded in a muffled voice.
Fang Qing had already gotten up to wash up.
Zhao Shi'an only returned after she had fallen asleep in bed and finished washing up.
"Good night."
He blew out the candles, realizing that his long-awaited wedding night was over, and he lay down next to Fang Qing in frustration.
But just as he pulled the covers over himself, he heard a commotion coming from Fang Qing's side.
Fang Qing crawled into his bed.
Zhao Shi'an felt neglected, but at this moment his heart suddenly stirred.

Fang Qing silenced him with a kiss.

Under the cover of darkness, Zhao Shi'an couldn't see Fang Qing's flushed cheeks, but he could feel her enthusiasm and her slightly trembling voice.

Fang Qing was startled awake.
She didn't sleep well all night, so she nudged Zhao Shi'an, who was in the bathroom, to signal him to get up.
Zhao Shi'an didn't even open his eyes before turning around and pulling Fang Qing into his arms, where he could hear her even breathing.
Fang Qing gently pushed him, but to no avail.
I guess I haven't been sleeping well these past few days because I've been busy with wedding preparations.
The two didn't get up until the maid knocked on the door again.
They washed up and ate without saying a word, but they would occasionally look up at each other, their eyes filled with a love that would make others envious.
After breakfast, Fang Qing went to the storeroom to check yesterday's gift list with the housekeeper. Zhao Shi'an glanced at it and then left with Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu led Zhao Shi'an to an empty room in the front yard.
The door opened, and a woman rushed out of the room.
