Chapter 1402: Chapter 1406: But He’s Too Cold
Qiao Zui draped his arm over her shoulder, his beautiful peach blossom eyes looking even more enchanting and bewitching, “Today is our big day, how can we drink plain water? We must drink alcohol!”
“You really are…” Mi Sheng looked at his victorious arm with concern, “What if your arm hurts again?”
Qiao Zui chuckled, “Then it will be a painful yet joyful experience!”
Mi Sheng chided him: “Fool!”
Ye Xingbei said, “Drink water tonight, no more alcohol. After the banquet, there’s still the wedding room to be teased.”
Mi Sheng nodded and said to Qiao Zui, “You have to listen to little aunt this time!”
Qiao Zui agreed, “Fine, I’ll listen to my wife and little aunt!”
Hearing the words “my wife,” Mi Sheng’s originally delicate cheeks turned even redder, her eyes rippled, and her alluring charm intensified, tickling Qiao Zui’s heart.
Because of the little treasure in her belly, he and Mi Sheng hadn’t been intimate for a long time.
Tonight was their wedding night.
It was such a special day… With extra care, he thought there would definitely be no problem!
After the banquet, the guests dispersed, and the groomsmen returned to the Gu Family compound with Qiao Zui and Mi Sheng to carry out the last part of the wedding—the teasing of the bridal chamber.
That evening, Qiao Zui indeed refrained from drinking.
In the afternoon, under the arrangement of Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, he and Mi Sheng managed to get a little break, and despite being busy all day, both he and Mi Sheng were still in good spirits.
Qiao Zui first took the initiative to toast his buddies, “Brothers, I’ll toast to you first. Please go easy on me later!”
Qiao Jieran, holding a wine glass, looked at him mockingly, “Xiao Qiao, it’s no use trying to make amends at the last minute! There’s only one such occasion in a lifetime, of course, we’ll take our revenge if there’s any grudge. Right, brothers?”
The crowd unanimously agreed, enthusiastically.
Mi Sheng bashfully snuggled up to Qiao Zui, smiling.
Gu Junzhu was leaning on Ye Xingbei’s shoulder by the window, a smile hooking his lips, in a good mood as he watched the lively scene involving his nephew.
Ning Huaijing rubbed his hands together, eager, “Come on, come on, a moment in the spring night is worth a thousand gold pieces, don’t waste time, hurry up and bring over the props we’ve prepared.”
A bodyguard immediately complied, bringing over a tray.
The tray was covered with a thick layer of flour.
Qiao Zui was perplexed, “What is this?”
Sheng Xicheng placed his arm on Qiao Zui’s shoulder, “Nephew, since Xiao Mi is pregnant…”
Qiao Zui gave him an elbow, “Get lost! If you take advantage of me again, I’ll have my little cousin treat you to Mantis Fist!”
Xiao Shumiao was sitting on their new bed, munching on candy while enjoying the commotion.
There is an ancient tradition of having a beautiful child roll on the new bed.
The idea is for the couple to catch some of the child’s good fortune, so they may have a healthy and plump baby in the future.
Xiao Shumiao was dressed in a small red Tang suit today, the vivid flame red making his fair skin even whiter and his large, watery, and lustrous eyes, along with his flawless and exquisitely carved little face, made him irresistibly cute and beautiful. Everyone who saw him wanted to touch him and even hug and kiss him.
Lingyue was also dressed in a Tang suit today.
But while Xiao Shumiao’s Tang suit was red, his was blue.
His eyebrows and eyes were just as delicate, his features just as handsome, not falling short of Xiao Shumiao’s.
But he was too cold.
Just an eight-year-old child, yet cold as ice, making people only want to admire him from a distance, not daring to play with him.
He and Xiao Shumiao were together the whole time.
Familiar people who wanted to touch Xiao Shumiao’s cheeks could do so, like Qiao Jieran, Sheng Xicheng, and Ning Huaijing. He knew they were very close to his master, like brothers, so hugging and kissing Xiao Shumiao was alright for them.
