Chapter 413: Consummation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After a simple ceremony, Mu Yangling was sent to the bridal chamber. Qi Xiuyuan did not appear, but Li Jinghua walked around with a smile. However, everyone saw her slightly red eyes, so they tacitly did not stay any longer.
Qi Haoran was very lucky. When he reached the front, he was only let go after symbolically drinking two glasses of wine. Then, the Qi Manor sent all the guests away early.
Only then did Qi Xiuyuan get off the bed and say to Qi Haoran, who was sitting in the room, “It’s been hard on you two. Go back and accompany Ah Ling.”
Marriage was a major event in life. In order to put on an act this time, the liveliness of the wedding was greatly reduced. Indeed, it had been hard on the two of them.
However, Qi Haoran felt that it was all good as long as his family was happy. Hence, he did not mind at all and ran to the bridal chamber to look for his bride.
Mu Yangling was still sitting on the bed. When the nanny saw Qi Haoran enter, she pursed her lips and smiled. She went forward and tugged at him. “Fourth Young Master, you’re here. Quickly lift the bride’s veil.”
Qi Haoran only stared at Mu Yangling. He casually picked up the scale beam on the plate and lifted Mu Yangling’s veil. Mu Yangling looked up at Qi Haoran, her face rosy and her lips red. Although her face was so thickly covered with rouge that it was impossible to see her original appearance, Qi Haoran could not help but grin.
Mu Yangling couldn’t help but purse her lips and laugh. The duo’s hearts brimmed with joy as they gazed at each other.
This being the first time the nanny had seen a pair of newlyweds so devoid of shyness, she couldn’t help but comment “Geez”. After seeing the two of them lower their heads with red faces, she smiled and brought a bowl of dumplings over from the table. She asked Qi Haoran to sit beside Mu Yangling and pick up a dumpling for her. Seeing that she had bitten half of it, she asked, “Is it raw or not©?”
“…Raw.”
The nanny happily picked up two small wooden gourd ladles and filled them with wine. “You have to drink it in one gulp. After drinking the nuptial wine, you’ll be husband and wife from now on, and share in joy and hardship. May you live in wedded bliss!”
There was a string connecting the two wooden gourds, so she had no choice but to move over a little to reach it. Their foreheads almost touched as they finished the wine. The nanny kept glancing at them. As soon as they finished drinking, she snatched the wooden gourds and threw them to the ground. The two ladles spun twice on the ground and slid to the head of the bed.
Qi Haoran craned his neck and asked anxiously, “How is it? How is it?”
The nanny clapped her hands and said, “It’s a success! One facing up and one facing down. Congratulations, Fourth Young Master! Congratulations, Fourth Madam!”
The room was filled with congratulatory cheers.
Qi Haoran immediately shouted happily, “Reward!”
Mu Yangling looked at the overjoyed Qi Haoran and felt very ashamed. Then, she couldn’t help but smile.
After the ceremony, Mu Yangling removed the jewelry and crown on her head. “Eat something first. I’ll go wash up.”
Mu Yangling turned to look at Qi Haoran, and saw that he was about to climb onto the bed. She leaned over and sniffed him. Realizing that he reeked of alcohol, she nudged him and said, “Go wash up too. You reek of alcohol.”
Qi Haoran didn’t want to take a shower, but he remembered that it was their wedding night today, so he should be more accommodating towards Mu Yangling. Hence, he nodded and agreed. When Mu Yangling went to the bathroom, he ran out and casually splashed water on himself. Then, he changed into a fresh set of clothes and ran back.
When Mu Yangling came out with her wet hair, he had already swept the jujube, longan, and other things on the bed onto a large plate.
Mu Yangling wasn’t used to being served by a servant girl, and Qi Haoran didn’t like the fact that there were other people in the room, so he sent the servants out early. At this moment, there were only the two of them in the room. Qi Haoran supported his chin and watched as she sat in front of the dressing table to dry her hair. The orange light made her look extremely gentle. Qi Haoran couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. Before he realized it, he went behind Mu Yangling and gently touched her cheek with his lips.
Mu Yangling’s face instantly burned. She pushed him and said in a low voice, “We’re still young. Why don’t we wait another two years before consummating the marriage?”
Qi Haoran’s eyes turned red. “I’m already 17. How am I young?”
Mu Yangling burst out laughing and chuckled softly. “I’m talking about me. I’m only 14.”
“You’ll be 15 after the new year. How is that young? Other girls become mothers at 14.” Qi Haoran grabbed the towel in her hand and threw it on the table. He picked her up and strode towards the bed, placing her on the big red wedding blanket. Before she could react, he pressed her down.
Qi Haoran said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll listen to you for everything else, but not this matter.”
Without waiting for Mu Yangling to reply, he covered her mouth. Mu Yangling only struggled slightly. Seeing that he was holding her hand tightly, she slowly relaxed her body.
Sensing her softening, Qi Haoran was delighted. He let go of her hand with his right hand and tugged at her clothes…
Mu Yangling said in a soft voice, “Put down the bed curtain…”
The red candle could not be blown out, but the bed curtain should at least be lowered.
As long as Mu Yangling was willing, Qi Haoran was happy to do anything. Hence, he raised his head and waved his right hand, applying his internal energy towards the hook. Right away, the bed curtain slid down to cover the bed tightly.
Only then did Mu Yangling realize that internal energy could be used like this. Indeed, it was suitable in all kinds of scenarios.
How could Qi Haoran know that the person under him was still thinking about these things? He only buried his head in her neck and nibbled on it. Although his big brother had educated him on this and he had seen the pictures himself, he had no practical experience at all. Besides, Qi Haoran had long forgotten what he had heard and learned. He could only rely on his instincts to rub and move. His body was so hot and uncomfortable that he felt like he was about to die.
He removed all clothes from Mu Yangling and kissed her from head to toe. However, he only felt more and more uncomfortable. Mu Yangling did not feel good either. She barely managed to maintain her rationality and move her body down. Enlightened, Qi Haoran could not wait to squeeze in and begin his journey of conquering.
The next day, when Mu Yangling opened her eyes, she saw a pair of big black eyes. When Qi Haoran saw that she had woken up, he grinned. “You’re awake? Do you want to sleep a little longer?”
Mu Yangling turned to look outside. Qi Haoran hurriedly said, “It’s still early. Big Brother and the others definitely haven’t woken up yet.”
As he hugged Mu Yangling, Qi Haoran’s hands began to move under the blanket. Mu Yangling only felt sore all over. It was even more tiring than riding a horse for two days. After slapping Qi Haoran’s hand away, she tried her best to squeeze out of his arms. She whispered, “Don’t move.”
Qi Haoran’s breathing gradually became heavier. He pressed her against his chest and said, “If I don’t move, you shouldn’t move either.”
Mu Yangling also sensed that something was wrong and nestled in his chest without moving. However, Qi Haoran’s breathing was still getting heavier and heavier. She immediately felt that something was wrong, but Qi Haoran had already flipped over and pressed her down. He bit her earlobe and said in a muffled voice, “It’s still early. Really, the sky is dark…”
Mu Yang pinched his waist and Qi Haoran moved even more violently…
It was foreseeable that they would be late for breakfast today. Mu Yangling ignored Qi Haoran with a straight face. Qi Haoran followed Mu Yangling obsequiously and helped her find her clothes and shoes. If Mu Yangling hadn’t slapped his hand away, he would have helped Mu Yangling put on her clothes.
After the two of them were dressed, Qi Haoran opened the door and called the servants in.
In front of the outsiders, Mu Yangling gave him face and revealed a slight smile at him.
