“We’ve been here for ten days, and in those ten days you’ve never once said you wanted to marry me. No matter how I hinted at it, you remained unmoved. Lord Mingjin, tell me the truth, do you regret it?”
Runling at this moment was no longer the same as before.
She was no different from those resentful women in the world.
She feared not being loved by the one she deeply desired, feared he wouldn't marry her, feared he would betray her... This is the reason why she harbored hatred when she couldn't have what she wanted.
"If you regret it, you can just tell me. I, Runling, am not so bad that I can't let go!"
Did Ming Jin not understand Run Ling's hint?
No!
It wasn't that he regretted it, nor that he didn't want to marry Runling.
He just felt that with his divine power, which had not yet fully recovered, it would be insufficient to protect her after their affair was exposed and Heaven punished them.
If loving someone doesn't mean you can protect them, Mingjin thinks such useless love is better off gone!
He wanted to wait, to wait until he had fully recovered, before publicly promising her a wedding that would satisfy any woman in the world.
But given the current situation, we really can't wait any longer.
What she wanted and what he wanted to give were completely different. In fact, because of this 'mistake,' she had already developed the illusion that he had no feelings for her.
If left unchecked, it will most likely spiral out of control.
And Mingjin must not let that happen!
"Little Ling'er," he called her name gently, "I have never regretted it since I fell in love with you. The reason I am not marrying you for the time being is because now is not the best time. I want to wait a little longer."
"Wait a little longer? Ha~" Runling murmured Mingjin's words, then laughed for a while as if she had heard the funniest joke before asking him again, "Wait until when? Until you stop loving me?"
"I will love you forever," Mingjin said firmly.
Runling, however, did not believe it at all.
She didn't believe in vows of forever or for life; she had read too many tragic stories in folk tales.
She has her own set of theories.
She simply believed that love and marriage were linked.
"But I feel that only when you come to greet me with a grand wedding procession and marry me can it be true love."
Ming Jin's hand clenched involuntarily at his side!
He loves her.
That deep affection is witnessed by heaven and earth.
If marriage is what she wants, then he is willing to compromise. No matter what happens in the future, he will bravely stand in front of her.
Even if... it requires sacrificing him!
Once you've thought it through, you'll naturally agree readily!
“Then let’s get married,” he said.
Runling was taken aback.
Her beautiful eyes looked at his face, a face that could eclipse even the most beautiful scenery in the world and captivate all beings, with a look of doubt. "Aren't we going to wait for your so-called good opportunity?"
Runling's sarcastic tone would probably upset anyone, but Mingjin didn't seem to care at all.
He looked at her with a doting smile, "If you wait any longer, the wife you've already got will be gone."
This is the first time Mingjin has said "wife" and has linked "wife" with Runling.
People in the mortal world often call each other "husband" and "wife," so Runling didn't find it strange. But because these two words came from Mingjin's mouth, they made her heart flutter.
A blush, as radiant as the morning sun, crept onto her face.
She said softly, "You need to think this through. By following the will of Heaven and Earth, you and I are truly husband and wife. You can't go back on your word later."
"I will never go back on my word!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking those four words, Ming Jin waved his hand, and the surroundings were transformed into a wedding night decoration.
Red sheets and blankets, red lanterns, red double happiness characters, red curtains... everything in sight is red, very festive.
Outside the house, there was a continuous expanse of red stretching for dozens of miles, with red rose petals fluttering in the air, just as Runling had described as a ten-mile-long red bridal procession.
Oh, and it's even more romantic!
Seeing this scene, Runling was so moved that she burst into tears.
(Note: At this time, Runling is somewhat love-struck, but she is also able to let go easily.)
"Ah Ming, you...you want us to get married today?"
Ming Jin hummed in agreement, then placed his hands on Runling's shoulders, looking at her tenderly. "Whatever you desire, I will grant. A grand wedding procession, a bridal chamber filled with candlelight. In accordance with the will of Heaven and Earth, we will marry you with proper ceremony."
Runling got very angry when the other party refused.
Now that they've agreed, she's starting to worry about the trouble that might follow.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly. "Ah Ming, what if..."
Before Runling could finish speaking, Mingjin solemnly accepted the order, saying, "From now on, you, Runling, are my wife, Mingjin. Even if the heavens are ruthless, I will protect you."
Runling's heart was overflowing with sweetness.
She didn't say anything, but her thoughts were exactly the same as Ming Jin's.
…
Wedding night.
A fleeting moment of pleasure.
Both the Netherworld God Lord, who is hailed as the ancestor of all gods, and the Netherworld King Runling, who holds the power of life and death over all beings in the underworld, are completely ignorant about matters of love between men and women.
That night was really long and tiring.
That night, she became pregnant with his child.
When she found out, she was overjoyed. "Ah Ming will be so happy to know. I have to find a good day to tell him."
…
Since their wedding night, Ming Jin had been secretly investigating matters concerning sexual relations between men and women.
When he discovered that what he and Runling did would most likely result in her getting pregnant, he was devastated.
He is a god, extremely noble.
