With a creak, everyone's eyes turned towards the source of the sound.
Ye Lisheng stood at the door, her face deathly pale.
Their plans also came to an abrupt end.
"Sixth Brother!"
"On what day did they get married?"
"Has Your Highness not given up yet? She treated you like that!"
Ye Lisheng glanced at her coldly: "I know what I'm doing!"
"She sent us an invitation!"
He gave a cold laugh: "I should go and offer my congratulations!"
I feel like a caged bird, sitting by the window watching the snow outside paint the world spotless, while several maids brave the cold to stand guard outside for a long time.
Feeling utterly bored, I tried to strike up a conversation with them: "Aren't you cold?"
But they acted as if they hadn't heard a thing.
I asked again, "I can't run away, and it's getting dark. How much longer are you going to stand here?"
Apart from the sound of the wind, there was no other sound. Recalling the scenes from her dream, her heart gradually clenched, and painful thoughts surfaced in her mind. Tears streamed down her pale cheeks.
Startled to realize I was crying, I asked in confusion, "What's wrong with me? It was just a dream!"
With a loud "Boom!", a series of dazzling flowers bloomed in the sky.
Red, blue, yellow, they're so beautiful!
The maids jeering, "Who set off those fireworks? They were so beautiful!"
Suddenly remembering that I had mentioned to Ye Lisheng that I wanted to see fireworks, I boldly guessed that this might have been set off by Ye Lisheng.
Thinking this way, the tears flowed even more uncontrollably, and the longing in my heart overflowed, leaving me feeling helpless and hating myself.
"Tomorrow is the total solar eclipse, Ye Lisheng, if you don't come soon, you won't see me!"
But the thought of Murong Kui impersonating him made him probably hate himself to the core.
The more I think about it, the more upset I get. The fireworks are dazzling, but they vanish in an instant, turning into a wisp of smoke.
The snow seemed endless, blanketing Lingqi in a white expanse. In the dim candlelight, the world appeared peaceful and serene.
Fireworks collided with the sky, and Ye Lisheng's eyes remained fixed upwards, gazing upwards.
He muttered to himself, "She must have seen it!"
After holding back for a long time, Ling Ran finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Your Highness, is it worth it?"
He sighed inwardly. This was the first time Ling Ran had heard him sigh, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"It's not a matter of whether it's worth it or not, it's just a matter of whether you're willing to do
"Perhaps I owed her in my past life, and I must repay that debt in this one!"
He let out a long sigh and laughed, "But she'll be leaving tomorrow, so she won't get anything from me!"
Ling Ran was completely bewildered by what he said. If he hadn't been following him the whole time, he would never have believed that the person in front of him was Ye Lisheng himself.
"Your Highness, it's windy, and you're still not fully recovered. Let's go back!"
"This is a gift from me to her; I must accompany her to see it!"
He looked at his retreating figure, so frail, and couldn't understand why love could cause such a change in a person.
Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on his lips. Wasn't he just like that? The thought of Ling Shuang always made his lips unconsciously curve into a smile.
Tianyang had been hiding for several days, and finally poked his head out this morning.
Sunlight streamed in through the window, filling the room with a peaceful and serene ambiance.
The door was pushed open, and a group of maids in blue jackets walked in in an orderly fashion, carrying something in their hands.
"Young lady, today is your wedding ceremony with the Imperial Advisor. This servant will now help you undress and change into your wedding gown!"
I disgustedly tossed the wedding dress aside and coldly said, "I'm not wearing it!"
It felt as if a knife was held to her throat. The men knelt at my feet in fear and said, "If you don't wear it, Miss, the Imperial Preceptor will punish us!"
"How can there be such a perverted person!" I gritted my teeth and said.
Unable to bear seeing anyone suffer because of her, she said, "Bring me the clothes!"
"yes!"
A touch of rouge on her brows, like snowflakes falling between them; her eyebrows arched like willow leaves; her skin was like solidified cream; her lips were red and her teeth white.
This was the first time I'd ever seen myself like this, and I couldn't help but feel a little narcissistic.
"Greetings, Celestial Master!"
As Wangqiaochuan approached from outside, I nodded slightly to him.
He looked me up and down, as if he were seeing an old acquaintance: "You really look alike! Especially those eyes!"
I was completely confused: "Like whom?"
Instead of answering me, he asked in return, "Do you believe in reincarnation?"
I smiled slightly, and instead of answering directly, I asked, "I've heard that the Celestial Master has the ability to understand the secrets of heaven. I wonder if I could ask the Celestial Master to explore the secrets of heaven for Okra!"
Everyone has their own destiny; why rush to know? You'll know when you reach your destination!
He then added, "The day the spider lily bloomed in your hands, I knew you were extraordinary!"
"You flatter me, Celestial Master!"
"Crackling and popping!" The streets were filled with the continuous sound of firecrackers, making it look extremely lively.
Everywhere was decorated in red, perfectly fitting the occasion.
Ye Xuanling had been watching over him since the beginning, pacing back and forth beside him, worried about him.
He would ask every now and then, "Sixth Brother, aren't you really going to go and take a look?"
He frowned and impatiently tossed the book into his lap.
He coldly dismissed her, saying, "Looks like you're quite free. Should I arrange something for you to do?"
Startled, he ran to the bookshelf at the back and hurriedly said, "No rush, look at all the books I have to read and study, I'm really not in a hurry!"
Although it's called marriage, in my opinion it's more painful than being slowly sliced to death.
After today, Ye Lisheng and I will never see each other again.
I stood at the door for a long time, but I still didn't see the person I longed for.
Suddenly the world went dark; it turned out the matchmaker had placed a veil over my head.
