The matter of elopement relies on the right timing, location, and harmony among people. Now that the timing and location were perfect, it was a pity that Yao Niansi had developed a stubborn streak and refused to leave with Yun Sheng.
The reason was simple. Whether it was Yun Sheng's nature or his newfound penchant for playing the fool, he continued to act like an idiot in front of Yao Niansi.
Aside from the occasional glimmer of intelligence in his eyes, he was no different from before. If there was any change, it was that Yun Sheng's persistence had grown even stronger.
After Yun Sheng had wrapped his arms around Yao Niansi's waist for the one hundred ninety-eighth time, she could no longer tolerate it and shouted angrily, "If you keep touching me like that, I’ll divorce you!"
Yun Sheng feigned a look of grievance and muttered softly, "No wonder everyone says you’re a tigress."
"What did you say?"
Yun Sheng immediately put on a smiling face and clung to her like a plaster: "You are my Wife; it's only natural for me to touch you."
Yao Niansi rolled her eyes skyward, feeling helpless. "How did I never realize you were such a rogue before?"
He chuckled smugly, "That's because beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
Yao Niansi was somewhat speechless and couldn’t help but doubt whether this person, who was laughing so heartily, was truly the renowned and composed Grand Master Yun.
Seeing that Yao Niansi remained silent, Yun Sheng sighed, putting away his playful demeanor. His expression turned serious as he said, "I’ll help you deal with the Bai Family issue. In exchange, you will obediently come with me." The matter concerning Yao Erzi could not be delayed any longer.
Yao Niansi had always been someone who repaid grudges. When Bai Huahua and her daughter had treated her so poorly before she left, she had vowed to settle the score.
Clearly, Yun Sheng's words struck a chord with her inner calculations. Yao Niansi's face lit up with joy as she readily replied, "Deal."
Yun Sheng seized the moment and kissed Yao Niansi's lips, whispering, "There's still the wedding chamber."
"… Let's discuss it later." Yao Niansi cleared her throat, trying hard to suppress the smile tugging at her lips, while secretly thinking, hmm, the sensation is quite nice.
Before Yun Sheng could finish speaking, Yao Niansi jumped up excitedly. "Are you serious?" She never imagined that Bai Huahua would fake a pregnancy just to secure the position of head of the family.
Yun Sheng shrugged innocently. "What do you plan to do?"
A mischievous glint flashed in her eyes as she placed her hands on her hips and laughed heartily. "A child must have a father, right? I want her to experience the bitterness of having no one to confide in."
Chapter Nine: Do Not Waste This Auspicious Time
While the Yao Family Inn was filled with joy, chaos reigned at the Bai Family Courtyard.
Yao Niansi impatiently pulled off her red veil and was about to take off her bright red wedding dress when she was interrupted by a voice from outside.
Leaning against the doorframe, Yun Sheng wore a smile but spoke with feigned grievance, "Wife, are you trying to run away from the wedding?"
Yao Niansi tossed the red veil at Yun Sheng and complained, "Why does it have to be today!" She had originally wanted to witness the drama involving Bai Huahua. Just thinking about the scene outside the Bai Family's gates, where a line of burly men awaited to claim Bai Huahua's unborn child, made Yao Niansi's heart race with excitement.
Yun Sheng quickly caught the veil and stepped forward to place it back atop Yao Niansi's phoenix crown. "The veil should be lifted by your husband," she said gently.
Yao Niansi rolled her eyes beneath the veil and muttered, "These ancient wedding customs are so annoying!"
Yun Sheng raised an eyebrow in a place where she couldn't see, teasing softly, "Are you really thinking about going back to your time to get married?"
Yao Niansi rolled her eyes and replied mischievously, "Well, it’s not impossible."
Looking at the woman in front of him adorned in a phoenix crown and bridal attire, a hint of spring warmth appeared in his gaze. He secretly thought that the Dragon Pearl had long been destroyed by him. In this lifetime, she would never escape from his side.
He reached out to adjust the veil on Yao Niansi's head, then turned to glance at the sunset outside the window. After a moment of contemplation, he quickly turned back and firmly closed the door.
Hearing the noise, Yao Niansi curiously asked, "Why did you close the door?"
Yun Sheng led Yao Niansi back to the big red wedding bed, his eyes curved with a smile. "Let’s not waste this auspicious time."
"In broad daylight, what auspicious time is there?"
"We're eloping early tomorrow morning, Wife. We should rest up," he said. Yao Niansi tried to struggle but found her body unexpectedly immobilized. Panicking, she shouted, "You scoundrel Yun Sheng! What have you done to me?"
He bent down and gently kissed her lips through the veil, whispering softly, "Just doing what I want to do..."
Outside the window, the sunset blushed and quietly hid behind the green mountains.
"Lift your veil so I can see your face; let me see how rosy and round it is, just like an apple in autumn."
