Chapter 103B: A starved wedding night

After searching around, he didn’t find Luo Qing Luan but the things in the room were neat and tidy without any signs of fighting or rummaging hence Nalan Ye knew that his impatient newly wedded wife had probably sneaked off to god-knows-where.

“This lass, running about during the newly wed night. If I find her later, I must teach her a lesson properly.” Nalan Ye shook his head as he gave a bitter smile but he had no choice. He didn’t alarm anyone, merely guessing where Luo Qing Luan might have gone off to.

When Nalan Ye found his way to the kitchen, he saw a floor full of chicken bones and he couldn’t help himself from laughing.

Just how hungry was this lass? She actually ate that much.

Listening attentively, he heard a slight rustling from behind the heap of wicker baskets which were filled with vegetables, as though someone was eating something. Hence Nalan Ye was even more sure that his disobedient young lass who didn’t stay in the marriage room was right here.

Slowly making his way in, Nalan Ye called out, “There’s actually a mouse in This Prince’s kitchen, and it even stole things, what a rare sight.”

With a flash, his silhouette swiftly moved behind the wicker baskets and he had indeed caught sight of a shocked Luo Qing Luan, her hand still holding on to a spoon with a circle of grease along the corner of her lips, apparently shocked by his sudden appearance.

“Nalan Ye, do you want to die, why did you scare me?” Luo Qing Luan reacted over and she stared at him angrily.

This man always appears and disappears unpredictably like a spirit. This was obviously his own residence but he didn’t make any sound while walking, scaring her so much that she almost spilled out the chicken soup which she was still savouring.

“Qing Luan, what are you doing here, have you forgotten what day is today?” Nalan Ye looked at her with a smile, which wasn’t quite like a smile.

Rolling her eyes at him, Luo Qing Luan finished the rest of her chicken soup with one big gulp and put down the bowl while using her sleeve to wipe her mouth, “What does it concern me on what day is today. I’m hungry so naturally I have to eat…. oh, I just remembered, isn’t today your wedding day, have you forgotten about it?”

He almost wanted to grab this heartless lass and kissed her fiercely. She actually said it’s his wedding and not their wedding?

Nalan Ye placed his hands behind his back as he took a tour around the kitchen while admitting Luo Qing Luan’s accomplishments as he said, “Today seems to be your wedding day as well, Qing Luan, it’s so coincidental, we actually got married on the same day, isn’t that worth celebrating?”

Looking at Nalan Ye’s teasing look, Luo Qing Luan knew that he was taking a dig at her, “Are you not happy? I know today is the day we got married, but I haven’t eaten anything for the entire day, surely you’re not intending to starve me to death right? I merely ate a few things, do you need to be so petty?”

“This Prince is not petty but as a bride, you didn’t wait in the room but actually ran out to the kitchen to pilfer food. If someone else saw you…..” Nalan Ye couldn’t stop himself from smiling as he laughed out, “That would be embarrassing.”

“So what if it’s embarrassing, I don’t mind anyway. Haven’t I been embarrassed enough today?”

After having her fill, Luo Qing Luan started to get a little sleepy as she couldn’t be bothered to haggle on with Nalan Ye and waved her hand, “Alright, I’ve taken my fill and I want to go take a bath and sleep so I won’t bothered to talk rubbish with you now. Prince Chu please do as you wish.” Saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

A silhouette flashed like the wind and appeared in front of her. Nalan Ye blocked her way with a smiling face, “Qing Luan, you want to take a bath? Then how about This Prince accompany you?” Looking at him, “We had written clearly in black and white that if you are up to any tricks, I will absolutely not stand on ceremony with you.”

Watching Luo Qing Luo leaving with quick steps slowly disappearing from his sight, Nalan Ye didn’t pursue after her. Instead he bore a smiling face without any irritated look. He naturally knew that Luo Qing Luan had gone to the bath but since she wasn’t willing to bath together, he wouldn’t force it upon her, just heading to another place. But later on it would not be up to her, who said the groom could not enter the bridal room? Surely he could not sleep outside right.

By the time Luo Qing Luo finished her guarded bathing in a hurry, she didn’t see Nalan Ue’s figure after she came out so she heaved a sigh of relief.

But when she pushed open the marriage room door and was just about to prepare to enter and rest, she saw Nalan Ye who had similarly just finished bathing and had already changed into his home clothes. He sat by the bedside as he placed a cup of wine.

On seeing Luo Qing Luo walking in, Nalan Ye smiled slightly and that good looking face revealed an intoxicating glamour as his sword shaped brows gave off an extraordinary demeanour.

“Qing Luan, come over here and take a seat.” He opened his mouth indifferently.

She was just about to reject when she heard Nalan Ye continue, “Today is the night of our wedding and this is the nuptial wine. Surely you will drink it right?”

Thinking about it, Luo Qing Luan walked over and sat down as she kept a firm watch over Nalan Ye, “Since we have an agreement first, we are also married so it is necessary to drink the nuptial wine. But after drinking this, we shall sleep on our own. You’re not allowed to come disturb me, do you understand me?”

The beauty who had just walked out from a bath was still bearing a faint shade of blush on her face as her heart started to pound upon seeing Nalan Ye. As though an obvious intoxicating smell whiffed over making one drunk not from the wine but from oneself. Their wedding night in the bridal room, for so many years, finally there was a young lady who made his heart beat wildly, and even became his wife.

His mood lifted up as Nalan Ye raised his cup, with an intoxicating faint smile curling up from the corners of his lips, “Alright Qing Luan, after we drink this cup of nuptial wine, I hope that we will accompany each other with our hearts and grow old together till the day our hair turns white.”
