Chapter 155
Ye Lan closed his eyes, not daring to look at himself in the bronze mirror.
Ye Lan could only feel what Tang Ru did to his face by touch.
Eyebrows, cheekbones...
Basically, Tang Ru did all the things that female cultivators usually like to dress up on his face.
Before he knew it, Ye Lan fell asleep due to Tang Ru's tossing and turning.
Tang Ru saw that he had fallen asleep, but did not wake him up. She just continued with what she was doing.
When Ye Lan woke up, a red veil was already covering his head.
Being a bride is so tiring. No wonder there are fewer and fewer women willing to get married nowadays. Even if he were in her place, he wouldn’t want to get married, Ye Lan thought.
After thinking about it for a long time, an older woman's voice came from outside the house.
"Miss Tang, the auspicious time is almost here. You can wake up the lady."
"It's okay. It's okay to wake him up when my cousin comes."
Ye Lan felt warm in his heart. This girl was so thoughtful, and his help to her was not in vain.
The good thing about no one coming up to talk to him was that Ye Lan was still planning where he should hide after this matter was resolved.
Not until he had thought it all out did he hear the festive sound of suona outside the house.
Tang Ru also gently pushed him at this time, "Senior Sister Ye, my cousin is here, it's time to wake up."
Ye Lan hummed lightly, "I understand."
Outside the house, the sounds of congratulations from the disciples of Wanfa Pavilion filled the air, making it extremely lively.
Hao Wen was wearing a red wedding dress. He walked to the door and knocked gently with his hand.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
Perhaps it was because of the hustle and bustle around him, but the palms of his hands that knocked on the door were slightly sweaty.
Even though he knew all this was fake, he still felt inexplicably nervous.
"The auspicious time has arrived, please invite the bride out~"
The older woman shouted in agreement as Hao Wen knocked on the door.
"Squeak——"
The door was opened from the inside, and Tang Ru appeared in front of the door with a smile on her face, supporting Ye Lan.
Almost as soon as the door opened, there was a cry of surprise from outside.
"Wow! So beautiful!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, Senior Brother Hao Wen is so lucky! Look at that waist! So thin~"
"And look at the proportions! They're simply perfect!"
"Where on earth did this fairy come from? I really want to know if she has any sisters!"
Various voices of praise floated into Ye Lan's ears continuously, and his hands hidden in his sleeves tightened slightly.
It's really shameful!
God bless! Let this all end soon!
Just when he was extremely nervous, he heard a voice of regret from below: "What a pity, such a beautiful bride has such big feet..."
"Bah, what do you know! Does Big Foot Wangcai know?"
"Brothers, fight!"
Ye Lan: ...
He is a man, so his feet are naturally bigger than a woman's. Ye Lan silently lit a candle for the brother who had learned the truth.
Hao Wen was actually shocked. When Ye Lan appeared in his sight, he clearly felt his heart beating violently in his left atrium.
He knew it was just a deal, but he couldn't seem to control his heart.
Suddenly, his mind flashed back to what his cousin Tang Ru had said in his ear: "Fake play becomes real! How much better to just make it a done deal."
Hao Wen took the big red flower handed to him by the matchmaker. He slowly walked towards Ye Lan and put the other side of the red silk tied with the big red flower into his hand.
While Ye Lan was still daydreaming, he found something in his hand. He looked down and saw that it was a piece of red silk.
Cheers from the crowd could still be heard in his ears, and Ye Lan saw Hao Wen beside him move, and he slowly walked forward.
Ye Lan, whose vision was blocked by the veil, could only hold the red silk tightly in her hand and hurriedly followed Hao Wen's footsteps.
He didn't know where he would go or how far he would go, he only knew that he had to follow Hao Wen.
The journey was not far, but Ye Lan felt as if he had walked a century.
It's so hard to bear.
He lowered his head and stared at the surface of his shoes. The red silk in his hand was already wet with sweat.
Ye Lan watched Hao Wen lead him across the threshold, across the brazier, and then walked for a while before slowly stopping.
Ye Lan knew they had arrived.
The matchmaker was shouting congratulations beside him. She said a long string of words, but Ye Lan didn't hear any of them.
He only heard the laughter of Hao Wen's parents, who were in high positions, saying, "Okay, okay, okay."
"The auspicious time has arrived~"
"Newcomer, bow to heaven and earth——"
Following the matchmaker's voice, Hao Wen and Ye Lan slowly turned towards the back, leaned slightly, and bowed towards the outside of the house.
"Two bows to the parents—"
The two turned back, leaned slightly again, and bowed to Hao Wen's parents who were sitting in front of them.
When I stood up, it was very strange.
A gust of wind blew from somewhere in the airtight house. When Ye Lan stood up, the red veil covering her head was lifted up in an arc.
Only half of his face was revealed, but he attracted envy and praise from the people around him.
Ye Lan became even more nervous after hearing these flatteries, but the matchmaker beside him was very experienced.
She quickly spoke again: "Three bows, husband and wife bow to each other——"
Hao Wen turned to the right, and Ye Lan also turned to the left.
Hao Wen took the lead, and Ye Lan was stunned for a second before following.
But just at this second, an extremely discordant sound appeared.
“Wait!”
Just as Ye Lan was about to bend down, he was suddenly supported by a force, preventing him from bending down.
When Ye Lan heard those two words, he felt as if his whole body was trapped in an ice cellar, the biting cold making him unable to move.
The arm hidden in the red cuff was extremely stiff.
Hao Wen looked up and saw a man leaping from the eaves and flying towards them.
When the figure appeared in front of him, Hao Wen's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
Is it him?
He recognized that when he wanted to give the compass to that person as a souvenir, he was stopped by the person in front of him.
Thinking of this, Hao Wen's good temper also became a little irritated.
"What are you doing here?" Hao Wen asked unhappily.
Leng Qingqiu stroked the hem of his clothes in front of him, and his eyes inadvertently passed over the bride in front of him who was covered with a big red veil.
He looked at Hao Wen and said, "I came here...of course I have something to talk to you about."
Leng Qingqiu deliberately dragged out the sound, and his action made everyone present very dissatisfied.
Hao Wen's parents stood up from their seats. Although angry, they still maintained their noble demeanor and asked, "I wonder which sect your master is from? Today is my son's wedding ceremony. I hope you can discuss it later."
They spoke politely and tactfully, but was Leng Qingqiu the kind of person who would play by the rules?
Ye Lan heard the traitor who shouldn't be here say with a smile: "It's about that person. Do you want to know? If you want to know, then follow me."
Everyone was confused. Before they could figure out what was happening, they saw the groom Hao Wen abandon his bride and follow the troublemaker away!
