Ming Zhiyan did not have any objections, he entered the guest room and lay on the bed. Listening to the movements on the other side of the wall, he felt extremely happy and fell asleep unknowingly.
She did not deliberately hide the fact that Jian Qingqing and Ming Zhiyan were together from anyone, but it seemed that no one had thought about it in that direction.
In the next two months, the two of them were busy with their own things. When they had nothing to do, they would meet up. Sometimes they would go shopping together, sometimes they would ride horses to the suburbs and climb mountains to look at the mountains, rivers, and flowers. Sometimes they would just sit together and stare blankly. They felt that doing nothing was also a happy mood.
However, although Jian Qingqing did not deliberately hide it, she did not let Ming Zhiyan publicize it. After all, the two of them were not officially engaged, and it would not be good if it was spread.
Ming Zhiyan frowned in dissatisfaction. “Then let’s get engaged first. I’ll go ask His Majesty for his blessing in this marriage.”
“No,” Jian Qingqing firmly refused. “I don’t want to get engaged so early.”
“Why?”
Looking at Ming Zhiyan’s angry face, Jian Qingqing wanted to pinch it, but Ming Zhiyan was still angry, so how could he let her pinch it?
He dodged twice. Jian Qingqing said helplessly, “I want to wait until I’m of marriageable age before we get engaged. Do you see how young I am? I’m only 11 and my birthday was not long ago. How will others see me if I’m already engaged?”
Ming Yan still could not accept this reason. “But I don’t care.”
Jian Qingqing pressed on his shoulder and said, “But I care. I care about what others say about you. You’re such a good person. I like you so, so much. If others say anything about you, my heart will ache.”
After she finished speaking, she kissed the man’s face and said, “Be good and listen to me, okay?”
The man’s anger was magically soothed by this kiss. He fidgeted and said, “Alright then…”
It was Liu Jiaojiao’s birthday in the middle of October. This was the first time Jian Qingqing had witnessed a wedding of this era.
Before dawn, the bride was called up to dress up. Group after group of madams and young ladies came into the bride’s room to give their blessings.
Jian Qingqing only went in to see a few people. There were so many people that
she did not even get to talk to the bride before she came out.
When there were fewer people, she went in again and stuffed a bottle of perfume into Liu Jiaojiao’s hand. “This is the wedding perfume I specially made for you. You must try it!”
Liu Jiaojiao smiled shyly and nodded, “I will.”
Only then did Jian Qingqing go out with relief. She did not put anything strange in this bottle of perfume. It just smelled very sweet and lasted for a long time. It could increase one’s happiness when they were newly married.
The guests invited by the bride would only eat at the bride’s house and would not follow the groom’s house.
When it was almost noon, Wu Zhenghui came to pick them up in a red robe. Ming Zhiyan had come with him. When he saw Jian Qingqing, his eyes were glued to her again.
Jian Qingqing glared at him and motioned for him to restrain himself. Only then did Ming Zhiyan look away and casually followed Wu Zhenghui to pick up the bride.
As everyone’s attention was on the newcomers, no one noticed the two’s movements.
However, although Wu Zhenghui was the main character of the day, he still paid some attention to Ming Zhiyan.
Ming Zhiyan and Wu Zhenghui were not relatives, and the two were not very familiar with each other, so Wu Zhenghui was extremely surprised that he wanted to come with him to pick up the bride. However, due to his status as Crown Prince Ming, he could not refuse.
He’d been wondering why Crown Prince Ming would do this. That guy had a reputation for being a cold-blooded person. However, now he realized that he probably had other intentions..
