Zhang Zhaodi said to Su Yaoguang next to her, "When you two officially marry, we need to make the event even grander and definitely surpass them."
Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu exchanged glances.
Both of them felt somewhat guilty.
Everyone thought they were a couple, but only they knew about their initial agreement. They feared they would never reach that day, as she never intended to spend a lifetime with a man.
She had endured everything in a past life, and marriage, apart from being messy, held no meaning. If she continued to treat Zhou Wangshu as a brother, they might even maintain a closer family-like relationship.
"If it comes to it and we can’t delay any longer, I’ll go along with you and hold the wedding banquet, just to set her mind at ease," Zhou Wangshu said.
"Do you think it ends there? After the banquet, there’d be pressure to consummate the marriage, and then pressure for children. Knowing my mother, she would probably keep a close watch until we had kids to be satisfied."
"..." Zhou Wangshu replied awkwardly, "At that point, we could find an excuse to travel for a year or so, then adopt a child and claim it as our own. Would your mother really be able to check?"
Su Yaoguang touched her nose thoughtfully and nodded, "Makes sense."
Indeed, his mind was sharper.
After all, when the boat gets to the bridge, it will naturally go straight.
The festivities across the street were lively, and Taoyao Square wasn’t willing to be outdone either; they were soon closing up shop to dine at a restaurant.
Late at night, Xiao Yanci finally escaped from his classmates who were urging him to drink and stumbled into the new room.
He pushed open the door, lifted the bridal veil with the wedding stick, and looked at Jiang Yihuan sitting there shyly.
"Huan’er..." Xiao Yanci exclaimed, "It really hasn’t been easy to marry you!"
Over two lifetimes, he finally welcomed her through the door. From now on, she was rightfully Mrs. Xiao, and their children would also have a legitimate name, no longer suffering the injustices of the past life.
Although his heart felt somewhat empty, he couldn’t quite understand where that emptiness came from. In any case, the regrets of the past and present life were finally fulfilled.
"Brother Xiao, I’ve finally married you. From now on, I’m yours, so you’d better cherish me and stop bullying me," Jiang Yihuan said passionately, gazing at him.
"Silly girl, I’ll cherish you too much to even think of bullying you," Xiao Yanci said, stroking her cheek, then suddenly smirked, "No, I will bully you, and I’ll make you cry."
"Brother Xiao, you’re supposed to be a scholar, how can you be so wanton? It’s embarrassing," Jiang Yihuan said.
Xiao Yanci looked at Jiang Yihuan, as charming as a flower, and felt a tickle in his heart.
Ever since regaining memories of his past life, he had been a little restless, after all, Jiang Yihuan had known well how to please him in that life, and he was quite enamored with her body.
If he didn’t have memories of a past life, he would still be that gentle and polite ’Brother Xiao’. However, with those memories, his mind was filled with passionate images of them together, and his desires grew stronger.
Now, they were married, and he could rightfully quench his desires.
On the street, Zhou Wangshu was carrying Su Yaoguang.
Su Yaoguang had drunk a lot today and got herself drunk.
Zhang Zhaodi and others went to the night market, leaving Su Yaoguang in Zhou Wangshu’s care. Zhou Wangshu carried her, but she was restless, one moment touching his ear, another his nose.
Zhou Wangshu put her down and directly lifted her, saying, "If you keep moving, I’ll toss you down."
Su Yaoguang held onto Zhou Wangshu’s neck and bit his ear.
"Ah..." Zhou Wangshu shouted, "Su Yaoguang, you are not allowed to drink ever again."
Last time she said he couldn’t hold his liquor; he really wanted to shake her awake to see who really couldn’t handle their drinks.
Su Yaoguang smacked her lips and said, "No taste, not tasty."
"You’re acting strange today. What’s going on?" Zhou Wangshu asked.
Su Yaoguang, clutching his neck, began to wail, "He’s married! Boo hoo..."
Zhou Wangshu frowned, "He’s married, and you’re upset?"
Didn’t she previously claim to hate him, not wanting to see him at all? Was she just pretending?
"He’s married!" Su Yaoguang spread her arms and shouted loudly.
Zhou Wangshu stopped, covering her mouth, "It’s late, don’t disturb the neighbors. Someone might just throw out a bucket of dirty foot-water and drench you."
"Wangshu, I’ll tell you a secret," Su Yaoguang whispered in his ear.
"Hmm, go on," Zhou Wangshu coaxed.
"Actually... I really, really, really hate Xiao Ci," Su Yaoguang shouted out loud.
Zhou Wangshu: "..."
"He’s married, and I’m thrilled. This means he and I have no ties; this life can be different."
Zhou Wangshu covered her mouth, "Okay, I understand. Now, stop shouting."
Su Yaoguang had more to say, but Zhou Wangshu kept her mouth covered. Annoyed, she bit his finger; in pain, he released his grip, and taking advantage of this, she went to bite Zhou Wangshu...
on the neck.
"Hiss..." Zhou Wangshu winced in pain, pushing her head away. "Su Yaoguang, if I ever let you drink again, I’ll be a fool."
Su Yaoguang was pushed, landing on the ground with a thud.
She looked up with tear-filled eyes at Zhou Wangshu.
"You’re bullying me."
Zhou Wangshu touched the spot where she bit him, feeling the burning pain, attesting to how hard she had bitten.
He picked her up, throwing her over his shoulder, and swiftly walked towards Taoyao Square.
For the sake of his life, he needed to get her to sleep as soon as possible. As for the nonsense she spouted, whether real or not, he couldn’t bother arguing with a drunk.
It seemed she had mentioned something important earlier, what was it again?
Zhou Wangshu focused only on whether she’d puke or fall, not paying much attention to her words. That odd sentence flashed through his mind without giving him time to ponder it.
"Wangshu..." Su Yaoguang patted Zhou Wangshu’s shoulder. "Did Xiao Ci get married today?"
Zhou Wangshu frowned, "You said you had no interest in him, yet you keep bringing it up?"
"No, I just think that since he’s married, we haven’t given them a gift yet!" Su Yaoguang said, "Marriage is a joyous occasion; we should celebrate with fireworks."
"What other gift are you thinking of giving?" Zhou Wangshu’s tone was dangerous.
"Come closer, I’ll secretly tell you. This gift is significant and can’t be overheard by others," Su Yaoguang said, beckoning.
Zhou Wangshu snorted, leaning closer to hear her speak.
To prevent her from biting again, he held his ear.
Su Yaoguang whispered a few words in his ear.
Zhou Wangshu’s expression turned strange after hearing her words, "You really want to give him such a big gift?"
Su Yaoguang nodded, "Of course, since we’re from the same town and shared the same village, we’re closely connected. How could we not give a gift?"
Zhou Wangshu’s lips twitched, "Alright then, since you’re so enthusiastic, I’ll help you with it. Hopefully, the newlywedded couple will appreciate it."
