Long Tingxue broke free from his grip and said.
If her people really hurt Jiang Yan, Ouyang Siyun dared not imagine what Jun Shen would do in his madness. Seeing that Long Tingxue was determined to go to the black market, he grabbed her hand and said, “I’ll help you, I’ll make Jiang Yan disappear from the capital, but you have to promise not to send anyone after Jiang Yan privately. As for Jun Shen, if he still doesn’t like you after this, we’ll drop the matter.”
He couldn’t bear to see her in trouble.
Nor did he want Jiang Yan to be harmed.
Long Tingxue agreed.
Ouyang Siyun returned and started making arrangements.
Jiang Yan and her group were naturally unaware of this, they were busy decorating the new room at that time.
Once the room was decorated, in the evening, with the oil lamps lit, looking at the brightly lit room, Jun Shen embraced Jiang Yan and said, “I really wish I could marry you right now.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yan laughed, she reached up to embrace Jun Shen’s neck and said, “Then marry me.”
She kissed him.
The little girl was actually teasing him!
Perhaps thinking that they would soon be married, all of Jun Shen’s previous reservations were gone. He swept Jiang Yan into his arms and said, “You’ve stirred me up, you have to take responsibility.”
Chapter 118: Jiang Yan Disappears
Jiang Yan regretted teasing Jun Shen, but it was too late to say anything.
Before she could speak, Jun Shen had already silenced her.
That night was destined to be sleepless.
When Jiang Yan woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. She now understood the feelings described in novels, and at this moment, she just wanted to grab Jun Shen and give him a beating.
But she didn’t even have the strength to leave the bed.
Jun Shen came in to find Jiang Yan awake, he immediately went out to have food prepared, then came back in, “Awake?”
“Hmph!”
Jiang Yan turned away, not looking at him.
Jun Shen knew he had been too intense the previous night, he sat beside her and said, “I was wrong, I’ll take it easy tonight, not so…”
“You still want tonight? No way!”
Jiang Yan covered herself completely with the blanket.
“Yan’er…”
“Wife…”
“Darling…”
Jun Shen called out to her softly.
These words reminded Jiang Yan of last night, how he made her call him ‘husband’ using all sorts of tricks.
“Shameless!”
Jiang Yan peeked out from under the blanket to scold him.
Jun Shen reached out to ruffle Jiang Yan’s hair and said, “I only want you!”
The food was prepared in advance.
It was brought in quickly.
Jun Shen didn’t let the serving maids in; he took the tray into the room, closed the door, set out the dishes, and then called Jiang Yan to eat.
A person is iron, food is steel, one meal missed makes you feel weak.
Smelling the aroma, Jiang Yan was even hungrier. She didn’t continue to be angry with Jun Shen, tidied up a bit, rinsed her mouth, and sat down to eat.
Jun Shen served her a bowl of chicken soup.
He had instructed the kitchen to simmer the soup for a long time, and now, this soup was much tastier than if it hadn’t been cooked for so long.
Jiang Yan tested the temperature, found it not too hot, and started drinking.
It tasted quite good after drinking. Handed the bowl to Jun Shen.
He likes serving soup for her, so let him do it again.
Jun Shen was extremely happy; he served another bowl for Jiang Yan.
During dinner.
Jiang Ling and the others finally saw Jiang Yan.
As soon as she saw Jiang Yan, Jiang Ling asked, “Sis, what did you do last night that you slept so late? And got up so late today?”
“I…”
Jiang Yan didn’t know what to say for a moment, so she stepped on Jun Shen’s foot.
Jun Shen laughed and explained, “It’s all my fault. I couldn’t sleep last night, so I dragged your sister out for a walk, which is why she got up so late.”
Why did he need to get up early if his sister got up late?
Jiang Ling still wanted to ask.
Jiang Wan put a chicken leg in her bowl, “Third sister, didn’t you want to eat chicken legs? Hurry up and eat, otherwise it won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
“Oh, right.”
Jiang Ling started to work on the chicken leg.
Jiang Ran was also eating, don’t underestimate her small size; she ate quite quickly.
…
It was said that once the wedding room was ready, they would get married.
But since Big Brother Su and the others hadn’t arrived yet, how could they possibly get married?
Luckily, Jun Shen had already sent someone to fetch them overnight.
So, they didn’t take too long to arrive.
Just before the end of the month.
Big Brother Su and his group arrived in the capital.
Jun Shen had chosen the date of the eighth day of the second lunar month, which was just a few days away from the wedding.
After their arrival,
Jun Shen and Jiang Yan accompanied them to explore the capital.
It was on this day that Jiang Yan encountered Jiang Dahai.
Upon learning that Jiang Yan was to marry Jun Shen, Jiang Dahai wanted her to return home to get married.
But Jiang Yan, how could she agree, directly refused him.
Regarding this matter,
Jun Shen had already made arrangements for Jiang Yan to get married from his villa in the capital.
Jiang Dahai felt quite uncomfortable but didn’t say anything in the end. When he got home, Ji Ye noticed his odd behavior and upon inquiry, learned that Jiang Yan was to marry Jun Shen.
Ji Ye said brightly, “Fourth brother, this is a good thing! You’ve said that Jun Shen is the son of the Prince, what’s wrong with Yan marrying him?”
“I asked Yan to come back to marry from home, but she was unwilling. She doesn’t consider me her father.”
Jiang Dahai voiced his thoughts.
Ji Ye didn’t mind at all, “No worries, you just need to treat them well in the future. They are your daughters; they can’t ignore you. Remember, they even gave you money to come find us?”
To improve relations with Jiang Yan and her siblings,
Ji Ye helped Jiang Dahai prepare betrothal gifts and sent them to Jun Shen’s villa the morning before the wedding.
Jiang Yan initially didn’t want to accept them, but they left the gifts and walked away.
“Let’s keep them for now, we can return them later.”
Jun Shen said beside Jiang Yan.
The wedding was imminent, and he didn’t want any issues at this juncture.
What he didn’t know was,
Ouyang Siyun had already taken action. His people, disguised as servants of the villa, had returned with others while buying groceries.
During dinner,
his people put the colorless and odorless drug he provided into Jiang Yan’s food.
Initially, no one felt anything.
After half an hour,
they all started feeling sleepy.
Including the guards.
Soon after,
Ouyang Siyun’s other men arrived at the villa and took Jiang Yan away.
They then exited through the South City Gate.
Ouyang Siyun had been waiting outside. Seeing Jiang Yan brought to him, he confirmed she was unharmed, then took out a box from his pocket, hesitated, and fed her a pill.
“Jiang Yan, don’t blame me, I’m doing this for your own good.”
“Take her away! Protect her well!”
Ouyang Siyun watched them leave before returning to the capital.
After handling everything,
he went back home.
The people at the villa were still in deep sleep, unaware that Jiang Yan had been taken.
When Jun Shen came to pick up Jiang Yan and saw no movement in the courtyard, his heart sank, and he rushed in only to find chaos.
He woke up Qing Yi and the others.
He interrogated, “Where is Yan?”
Qing Yi and the others were all dumbfounded.
Jun Shen was furious enough to kill them; as his shadow guards, they were utterly useless.
He ordered them to find Jiang Yan immediately.
Jun Shen went to the palace to confront Long Tingshen, “Did you have someone take Yan away?”
“What are you talking about? I didn’t!”
