Amu glared at him and slapped him hard on the head. "Don't make a sound, or His Highness will hear you."
At this moment, Yuanshan was just as sad as Chiyan. "I understand."
Inside the room, Chi Yan was crying his heart out, and Leng Qingning sat by the bed waiting for him to finish crying.
After a cup of tea, the room gradually quieted down.
Leng Qingning turned to face him, her words softening slightly as she spoke, "Have you cried enough?"
"Mmm." She took a deep breath, stopping her tears, but her eyes were frighteningly red. Her voice was hoarse and low, pleading in a coquettish tone, "Ning'er, can you hug me?"
"Hehe." Leng Qingning was instantly amused by these words.
"Ning'er, please have some pity on Ayan, okay?" The tentative plea sounded surprisingly natural coming from Chi Yan's mouth.
She inexplicably evokes pity!
In an instant, as if possessed, Leng Qingning leaned forward and gently embraced him face to face, her head naturally resting against his neck, her warm breath spraying onto his sexy Adam's apple.
As if out of control, the beautiful memories of the past flooded her mind like a slideshow the moment she leaned close to him, and the two of them were both immersed in the moment.
Chi Yan's reddened cheeks instantly turned even redder, spreading to his ears. The sudden action filled him with immense joy, and a huge surprise flooded his mind.
Chi Yan's lips trembled; he wanted to say something but was afraid of shattering the beautiful scene before him.
The thought arose in my mind, and the words turned into action. I lowered my head slightly and gently kissed the cherry lips I had longed for day and night.
There was no resistance, no rejection, just going with the flow, like lips and teeth, inseparable, full of tender affection.
The heat beneath the golden curtains was unbearable; deep affection transformed into a powerful tiger, and after a few breaths, their clothes gradually fell away...
Lost in a hazy, dreamlike state, a whisper, as soft as the chirping of insects, reached Chi Yan's ears, "Ah Yan, I broke my promise..."
Chi Yan paused for a moment, knowing exactly what the woman in his arms was saying. She had repeatedly and firmly promised him that she would only touch him after they were married, because at that time she loved him extremely.
And now...
Recalling this, a pang of heartache flashed through his heart, but he quickly concealed it. He lowered his eyes and smiled gently at her, "Ning'er, I don't care. Even if you never marry me in this life, I will still be willing to stay with you. I love you." Then he kissed her deeply.
Amu Yuanshan quietly withdrew...
………
In the Crane Sleeping Garden, the husbands gathered together.
As soon as Leng Qingning stepped into Tingfeng Pavilion, the young men, understanding each other without words, all came to the master's courtyard to ask Wen Yanche to send someone to investigate the situation.
Changfeng didn't return until 9 PM.
Changfeng nervously observed the reactions of the young men. Seeing their tense expressions, he stammered awkwardly, gritting his teeth as he reported, "Gentlemen, His Highness has already stayed at Tingfeng Pavilion. His Highness and Young Master Chi... they have already..."
With a bad feeling, Cang Yuanyou stood up abruptly and asked urgently, "Already what?"
Changfeng: "We've...we've already consummated our marriage."
"What?" Cang Yuan couldn't believe it.
The young men present all frowned upon hearing this.
Meng Xu's face darkened with anger. "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
“Reporting to Your Highness, I saw everything clearly from the rooftop. It seemed that Young Master Chi had been poisoned. Your Highness was by his side, and he was crying his heart out. Your Highness felt sorry for him and took the initiative to hug and kiss him. And then the two of them…”
Wen Yanche raised his hand in time to interrupt him.
Changfeng bowed respectfully, hoping he had misread the situation.
“This Chi Yan…” Meng Xu was furious.
Lu Shiyi asked Changfeng with a dark expression, "Did he say anything else?"
"How did he win the mistress's favor? Tell me in detail," Cangyuan pressed Changfeng.
"yes."
"From their conversation, I gathered that Young Master Chi seemed to have been poisoned yesterday. His Highness and Young Master Chi already knew who poisoned him, but His Highness told Young Master Chi to let the matter rest and not to pursue it any further. Young Master Chi took the opportunity to ask His Highness to compensate him and to visit Tingfeng Pavilion more often in the future."
The first part of his words puzzled the husbands, but the last part only fueled their anger.
"Anything else?" Jin Yan asked in a deep voice.
"And... Young Master Chi repented and apologized to His Highness, crying his heart out and looking so pitiful. His sincere appearance would make anyone feel sorry for him, let alone His Highness. That's all..."
Changfeng omitted Chi Yan's heartfelt confession, which he had overheard on the roof beam and found utterly cringe-worthy, deciding it was better not to say it and annoy the young men.
"Changfeng, you can go down now," Wen Yanche ordered him.
"yes."
Changfeng led all the servants out, and apart from Wen Yanche, all the husbands inside the room had dark faces.
Even Gu Nanshu found it hard to accept that the two had performed the rites of marriage before they were even married.
Cang Yuan sneered. His wife had clearly told him…
Why would you need to perform marital relations with someone you're using?
"Ha, what a Chi Yan." Cang Yuan was furious at this moment, and did not consider any other possibilities. He was convinced that Chi Yan had deliberately seduced him.
Lu Shiyi coldly mocked, "Young Master Chi is indeed skilled; he is adept at bewitching people."
Wen Yanche said calmly, "Now that Young Master Chi has entered the manor, it's only natural that the two of you would consummate your marriage, isn't it?"
The husbands were discouraged, but Lu Shiyi replied, "Ever since my wife kept him, I had guessed that Young Master Chi would eventually win back her heart, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
“In the end, my wife still cares about him the most,” Meng Xu said sadly.
These words really provoked the group of young men, and Jin Yan frowned with some annoyance.
Since entering the manor, perhaps influenced by the words of the young masters, everything she saw and heard showed that Chi Yan was unique in her lover's heart.
