How can I describe that feeling...?
Although waking up early in the morning to see a handsome young man smiling at her was a wonderful thing, Shen Qiyin felt inexplicably uneasy when she thought of Xiao Yan's unpredictable nature.
"You..." Stop laughing.
She felt inexplicably uneasy.
As soon as Xiao Yan saw her get up, his dark eyes lit up instantly. He helped her sit up from the bed with great interest, and his voice was tinged with a smile.
"Did you sleep well, Yinyin?"
“…Hmm.” Shen Qiyin nodded hesitantly, looking at him suspiciously, “Why did you come so early in the morning?”
A thought struck her, and she suddenly stopped: "You didn't stay here all night, did you?!"
They never left at all?
Xiao Yan shook his head: "They've left."
I just came back after I finished what I was doing.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiyin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Looking at the faint dark circles under his eyes, she gently advised, "If you are not busy in court lately, you should take a good rest."
Seeing Xiao Yan's blank expression, she raised her hand and tapped below his eyes, saying, "You must not have slept well to look so haggard."
She was just being concerned, but the person misunderstood and asked her, "Doesn't it look good?"
"...No, that's not it."
"That's good."
He still thought that she didn't like him because of his appearance.
Shen Qiyin got out of bed to wash up, and asked him absentmindedly, "You haven't said anything yet, why did you come over so early in the morning? Is there something important?"
"Yes, it is quite important."
"What's up?"
"I will marry you."
Shen Qiyin had just washed her face and hadn't even had time to dry it when Xiao Yan's words startled her so much that she froze on the spot.
A drop of water slid down her forehead, past her brow bone, and hung on her thick eyelashes.
She was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to finally find her voice: "W-what?!"
Xiao Yan seemed amused by her dazed expression, took a handkerchief and wiped the water from her face, then replied, "We'll get married."
Shen Qiyin was completely stunned and subconsciously asked, "Who?"
"You and me".
"when?"
"immediately."
"..."
Miss Shen stood quietly in place for a long while before finally blurting out, "I must be sleeping too soundly and haven't woken up yet. It's a dream, it must be a dream."
Xiao Yan found it increasingly intriguing: "Then I wonder if this dream is a pleasant one or a nightmare for Yin Yin?"
"In terms of content, it is naturally a pleasant dream, but in terms of the level of fright, it is undoubtedly a nightmare."
"Okay, I admit I was too impatient."
But he quickly changed the subject: "But Yinyin has to understand me. After all, I'm already this age. Other people my age already have children running all over the place."
"If the wedding date is postponed any longer, it's just for those empty formalities, and you know I've never cared about those things."
"Except for the time, I have already prepared everything else."
After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and Xianglan led a group of maids in single file.
When Xianglan pressed her in front of the mirror to do her makeup, Chen Qiyin still felt a sense of disbelief and unreality.
Was it that sudden?
Is Xiao Yan planning to marry her in the blink of an eye?
She glanced at the man behind her through the carved mirror again and again, and finally couldn't help but ask him, "Aren't you leaving?"
Where to?
This question stumped Shen Qiyin.
But anywhere is fine, as long as it's not here.
Although she had never been married, as the saying goes, even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run. What kind of groom sits by and watches while the bride is getting ready for her wedding?
"Aren't you going back to the manor to greet the guests?" They got married so suddenly; he probably didn't send out invitations beforehand. I'm afraid no one will come.
