Jin Yu’s expression remained calm, although her eyes flickered. “Nothing will happen. Don’t be nervous.” She was nervous herself; in her previous life, marrying had cost her dearly. This time, marrying her beloved, she wouldn’t let tragedy occur.
Xu Yi heard distant drums and gongs, sensing the festive atmosphere.
“I wish I could see what it’s like outside. When I saw my sisters getting married at the Xu family, the entire mansion was bright red, with loud firecrackers and drums, and people celebrating…”
Jin Yu listened quietly and replied, “Here, there are many people too. The mansion is red, with firecrackers and drums. Our bridal chamber is almost entirely red. I’ve hung the double happiness character everywhere. Do you like it?”
Xu Yi’s eyes sparkled with joy as she lowered her head shyly, “Yes… I like it…”
After the commotion, Xu Yi was blushing, but her previous nervousness had mostly dissipated. Jin Yu covered her with the red veil, straightened her clothes, and led her outside, “It’s almost the auspicious time now. Do you know what we’re going to do next?”
“……I know.” Under the big red veil, Xu Yi’s cheeks were burning red.
The passage features an intimate romantic narrative between two characters.
“Mu Xi, if there is a next life, will you still let me stay by your side?” The man’s beautiful eyes reflected anticipation. He hesitated slightly before continuing, “I don’t want much, just to stay and look at you.”
She smiled, her eyes brightening, “The person I want will naturally stay by my side.”
The man’s eyes dimmed slightly, “Am I the person you want?”
Gently stroking her smooth skin, she sensed his rapid breathing and smiled faintly, “You are the first man I wanted to keep by my side.”
His eyes sparkled, and he smiled, brushing away a tear. He nestled closely in her embrace, holding her tightly.
Contentedly, she embraced him; he was someone she would always keep close.
As the night deepened, their breathing calmed.
Hearing sounds of clashing weapons and battle cries from outside, she raised her eyebrows, preparing to look.
Suddenly, a cool sensation spread in her chest. Sensitive as she was, she immediately recognized the feeling of a weapon piercing flesh, blood flowing profusely.
