“Oh.” Wei Ting regained his senses in a second and straightened his clothes. He cupped his hands and bowed to Madam Li. “Second Sister-in-law, take care.”
Madam Li smiled and glared at him. After sending the three little ones to Matriarch Wei, she carried the sleeping Wei Xiyue back to her courtyard.
From time to time, babbling and singing could be heard from the stage in the front courtyard. It seemed to be close and far, making one’s heart itch in the night.
Wei Ting entered the room and instructed the maidservants, “Go out. There’s no need to keep watch tonight.”
The maidservants looked at Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao said, “Listen to Master.”
“Yes.”
The maidservants left.
Wei Ting came to the bed and looked at her in her red wedding dress. He asked softly, “Are you hungry?”
“I’m not hungry.”
After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the room fell silent.
“Aren’t you going to remove my veil?”
“Yes, I will.” Wei Ting smiled and picked up the jade ruyi on the table. He gently lifted her veil.
Their eyes met, and their gazes flickered.
His clothes were mostly dull dark and rarely so bright. Su Xiaoxiao was dazzled and felt that this man was too handsome.
After all, he had drunk alcohol. His eyes were slightly blurry, as if he was drunk.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t even blink.
Wei Ting’s lips curled up. “Wife, it’s time to drink the wine.”
Su Xiaoxiao came back to her senses. “Oh, drink. Let’s go!”
Wei Ting was speechless.
Wei Ting poured the wine and the two of them intertwined their wrists before drinking it.
“What did you call me just now?” Su Xiaoxiao realized belatedly.
Wei Ting smiled and said in a magnetic voice, “Wife.”
Su Xiaoxiao pulled her numb ears. “You… I’m not used to being like this today.” This was the truth.
Ever since Wei Ting was picked up by Su Cheng and brought back to the Wei family, the two of them had been interacting almost every day. Other than being separated for a month on the way to the capital, there was no change to Wei Ting.
Unlike tonight.
Wei Ting had been instructed by Matriarch Wei. After the wedding, he had to put away his bad temper and was not allowed to argue with the heavens or give Su Xiaoxiao attitude. Otherwise, Matriarch Wei would skin him alive…
Unexpectedly, the little fat peacock did not fall for this.
Wei Ting brought the wine glass over in amusement and placed it on the table. He said playfully, “You just married into the Wei family. Grandmother instructed me to treat you better.”
Su Xiaoxiao was instantly enlightened. She narrowed her eyes and looked at him. “Oh, so if Grandmother didn’t remind you, you won’t treat me well?”
Wei Ting was speechless.
How did he suddenly become inhumane?
“Hmph! Jerk!” Su Xiaoxiao grabbed the wide wedding dress and stood up. She was about to remove her hair accessories when Wei Ting grabbed her wrist.
“What are you doing?”
Su Xiaoxiao scolded him.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “So what?” Wei Ting said seriously, “There’s still a rite that hasn’t been completed.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked casually, “What rite?”
Wei Ting said, “The bridal chamber.”
Su Xiaoxiao glared. “You still want to eat meat? Dream on!”
This girl said strange words again, but Wei Ting understood.
Who could not wait to set this wedding date?
Who asked him to come back earlier?
Wei Ting looked unrestrained on the surface, but when it came to certain things, a person who valued rules would definitely not go overboard when he should not touch them. When he should touch them, he would insist on following through to the end.
This was the Wei family’s ancestral teachings.
Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly, “Let go.”
Wei Ting did not let go.
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to yank her wrist out of his grasp, but he pulled her back gently and threw her into his arms.
Wei Ting carried her and rolled onto the red wedding bed. The wind from his palm stirred the tent hook, and the veil slowly fell, surrounding this small world tightly.
He placed his arms on her sides and pressed down on her. His manly aura enveloped her domineeringly.
The room was very quiet.
An operatic voice came from the stage far away.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked at him.
He was like an emperor who was about to attack a city. His entire body emitted an aura of conquest.
His dark eyes clearly reflected his passionate expression.
Su Xiaoxiao’s inner thoughts were: Wait, why is this a little different from what I thought?
Wei Ting gently lifted the hair on her forehead with his jade-like fingertips and rubbed her slightly hot cheek. “The dragon and phoenix incense can’t be extinguished, but if you’re shy, you can close your eyes.”
“I… um…”
Su Xiaoxiao was about to speak when he leaned over her.
He grabbed her soft waist and offered her all his piety.
Before Su Xiaoxiao completely fainted, she muttered, “I just want to say that it’s really difficult with the phoenix crown on, you could have let me take it off first..
Click.
The hindering phoenix crown was thrown out.
Their clothes were also thrown out of the curtain one by one and scattered on the ground.
Tonight, Wei Ting was different.
In the past, when they held hands, he had treated her as a ferocious beast. At that time, she had wondered if Wei Ting, who was conservative, could only barely rub his clothes after consummating the marriage.
As it turned out, she was wrong. Very wrong.
The last undergarment embroidered with pink lotus tips and mandarin ducks playing with water was thrown out and gently landed on a pile of messy clothes.
A breeze blew past, shaking the tempting sweat and incense on their bodies.
The crescent moon hid in the clouds bit by bit. Wuhu on the branch also shyly covered its head with its wings..
