He will be back next time for Zhenbao's wedding. With their separation imminent, he wants to spend more time with his great-granddaughter.
But it's already past noon, and he still hasn't seen Zhenbao today.
Shi Yan said helplessly, "Grandfather, you made an appointment for the afternoon."
It's still early, what are you waiting for?
Besides, he was anxious himself. According to the customs of the Great Wei Dynasty, couples could not meet for three days before the wedding, so he would not be able to see that woman starting tomorrow.
He wanted to spend more time with her today.
Marriage is a major event in a woman's life, and she certainly hopes to be a beautiful bride.
His sister-in-law was willing to do it herself, and he naturally hoped that she would do so, so he could only wait patiently.
Shi Yu ignored him, found a rattan chair and sat down to rock slowly. As soon as Ye Zhen came out, he immediately ran away with her.
Then Aunt and Madam Wang and others came out. When they saw Shi Yan, Aunt smiled and said, "Ah Yan, it's just in time for you to come. Go and see if there's anything that needs to be changed in Jing Hong's makeup. Let me know when you get back."
Shi Yan felt like a boy experiencing his first crush, eager to see his sweetheart but caught by an adult. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay."
But when he saw people, he stopped breathing and couldn't remember anything else.
Feeling a little embarrassed by his direct stare, Ye Jinghong asked, "Is it pretty?"
Shi Yan nodded.
In his memory, Ye Jinghong was already very beautiful without makeup, but now that she's made up, she's even more captivating.
His somewhat dazed expression amused Ye Jinghong.
Sunlight streamed through the window onto Shi Yan's bright, smiling face. Shi Yan felt that if he didn't do something, he would be letting down all these years of waiting.
After the kiss, Ye Jinghong looked at herself in the mirror and said with some regret, "The lip color is gone. My sister-in-law put so much effort into it."
Shi Yan swallowed hard. "I'll make it up to you."
Most of the Shi family couples were very loving. Shi Yan grew up in this environment and even imagined the elegant lady-like scene of him drawing eyebrows for his wife after he got married.
Now that he finally had the chance, he took the lip gloss Ye Jinghong handed him and carefully applied it to her lips.
The glossy lip gloss made her already full and delicate lips even more alluring, while Ye Jinghong whispered in her ear, "Do you want to kiss me?"
I was thinking about it.
Ye Jinghong's hand rested on his chest. "Can the past be left behind?"
Shi Yan felt he was being blackmailed, but he was very unambitious and willingly accepted the threat.
"Um."
"So, will you treat me the same way you used to?"
Shi Yan said with a hint of resentment, "Aren't we pushing our luck?"
But then the woman said, "Don't you want to love me the same way you used to? But I want to love you even more than before..."
Okay, that's enough.
He agreed to everything.
Shi Yan lingered in the room for a long time before leaving, and when he came out, his lips were swollen.
Her heart was full, and the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.
But when the palace servants peeked over, he quickly reverted to his usual aloofness and returned to the Regent's Palace.
Now that he no longer needed to be regent, he naturally did not want to live in the palace anymore. After bringing Ye Jinghong back, he moved back to the Regent's Palace.
The new house is also located in the Prince's Mansion, so he has to go back and check what else in the mansion hasn't been arranged yet, and hurry up and make sure everything is in order.
Ye Jinghong had been living in the palace with Ye Zhen these past few days. After Shi Yan left, she stared blankly at herself in the mirror.
Although her daughter has been by her side these past few days, and Shi Yan has come to see her every day, she still feels like she's dreaming.
So much so that she always wanted to do something outrageous to prove that it was all true.
Shi Yan continued to indulge her unreasonable behavior and her overreaching demands as before, which made her feel increasingly guilty.
Tears streamed down her face, and she started to laugh as she cried.
"I must have saved the galaxy to deserve your kindness."
This was a phrase she heard on the internet in her later life. Feeling inspired, Ye Jinghong got up and went to Yin Jiuniang's room. She borrowed some money from her and went outside to buy a fine piece of jade.
She returned alone, carrying nothing but a photo of Shi Yan. She wanted to carve two love pendants by hand as a wedding gift for them.
Before they knew it, it was the night before their wedding.
Shi Lingci finally brought Xie Tingzhou to the Great Wei.
"Great-grandfather, great-grandmother, father, mother, imperial uncle, your lovely children, your precious mother and Xuexue, are back!"
Upon entering the palace gate, Shi Lingci shouted loudly.
but!
No one came out to answer him.
"What happened?"
Shi Lingci found it unbelievable.
They used to treat him very well, so has he fallen out of favor now that his younger sister is here?
Gu Xuerui also found it strange and summoned the palace servants to ask.
The palace servant said, "A quarter of an hour ago, the old matriarch and the others went to the Regent's Palace to celebrate the Regent's departure from single life. Only the bride and Lady Yin are in the palace."
So, Xie Tingzhou was taken to the Regent's Palace by Shi Lingci and his wife.
