The next day, Leng Yixuan's team arrived. Upon seeing Xin'er, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Xin'er learned from everyone that Xuan had been searching for her tirelessly and hadn't had a good night's sleep in quite some time.
Hearing this, Xin'er felt an overwhelming sense of concern for Leng Yixuan.
As for the matter regarding Cold Charm Chen, Xin'er had already discussed it with Leng Yixuan the day before.
Leng Yixuan understood that Cold Charm Chen treated Xin'er well; however, the man’s directness also indicated that he had his eyes on Xin'er as well.
Thus, he knew he had to protect his woman diligently.
Unexpectedly, when Leng Yixuan's team arrived, Cold Charm Chen chose to stay behind instead of leaving with them.
Upon learning this, Xin'er was taken aback.
She hurried over to Cold Charm Chen and asked, "Brother Su, why are you staying? Aren't you coming back to the capital with us?"
"Well, I always thought I would spend the rest of my life here, so I'm not going back to the capital with you," Cold Charm Chen replied without turning around as he fished by the riverbank.
Hearing his words, Xin'er furrowed her brow slightly.
Watching this man quietly fishing, she realized how much she had relied on him during this time. She had long regarded him as a big brother. Now that she knew he intended to stay here and they would be parting ways, Xin'er felt a deep sense of reluctance in her heart.
Perhaps sensing the reluctance in Xin'er’s heart, Cold Charm Chen stood up and turned to face her.
Looking at this petite and stunning young lady, he never truly wished to part ways with her.
However, he was afraid.
If he returned to the capital with her, his love for her would deepen, leading him to do things he could no longer control.
So, seeing her happy now, he chose to let go.
At this moment, as he watched the reluctant expression on the young lady's face, Cold Charm Chen felt a stir in his heart.
A wave of joy surged within him.
Although he knew that this young lady did not love him, seeing her reluctance proved that in her heart, he held some significance after all, didn’t he?
With that thought, Cold Charm Chen’s deep black eyes flickered before he spoke up.
“Xin'er, as we are about to part, can you promise me one thing?”
“Sure, Brother Su, what is it?”
Hearing Cold Charm Chen’s words, Xin'er immediately nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing this, Cold Charm Chen couldn’t help but extend his arms toward Xin'er and said, “Can you let me hold you properly just once?”
Xin'er was momentarily taken aback by Cold Charm Chen's request.
However, in the next moment, she smiled and walked up to Cold Charm Chen, allowing him to embrace her tightly.
With her face buried in his broad chest, Xin'er couldn't help but say with a smile, "Brother Su, you must take good care of yourself from now on. I am really so happy to have met you in this lifetime!"
"Hehe, me too. Meeting you in this life is the happiest thing for me," he replied, recalling it as one of his most cherished memories.
Thinking of this, Cold Charm Chen tightened his hold on Xin'er.
His dark eyes sparkled with a kind of affection and obsession that Xin'er could not see.
However, in the next moment, Cold Charm Chen released her and said, "Alright, you can go now!"
"Okay, Brother Su. I promise I'll come back to see you!" she replied.
"Alright!"
Hearing Xin'er's words, Cold Charm Chen's red lips curled into a smile.
The smile was gentle and, under the sunlight, it seemed as if the Eternal Ice was melting away—so tender...
...
Four days later, Xin'er and her companions arrived in the capital city and headed straight for Cold Manor.
When they returned to Cold Manor, Cold Consort and Cold Prince were all there waiting for them.
Due to Xin'er's disappearance, the news spread widely, and the wedding could not take place. Everyone dispersed to search for Xin'er.
At this moment, Xin'er returned to Cold Manor and saw Cold Prince and Cold Consort. A sense of worry and fear welled up inside her.
This time, it was all her fault; she had fallen into someone else's trap. The wedding being canceled would surely make everyone laugh at her.
Moreover, Xuan had been injured because of her...
Thinking of this, Xin'er felt increasingly anxious.
She wondered if Cold Prince and the others would come to dislike her because of this. However, her worries were unnecessary.
As soon as they saw her return, Cold Consort rushed over to her, showering her with concern and warmth.
Finally, Cold Consort took Xin'er's hand and gently patted the back of it, speaking softly.
"It’s good that you’re back. Xuan has already informed me about everything. I know this is not your fault; you love Xuan too much and didn’t want him to get hurt, which is why you chose to leave. Now that you’re back, that’s what matters. Good child, don’t leave again. You have no idea how much Xuan loves you. No matter what happens in the future, we will always be here for you! And now, you carry our Cold Manor's bloodline. Haha, good, good! You truly are a good child. For now, just focus on taking care of yourself and the baby!"
Hearing Cold Consort's words—filled with concern but devoid of any blame—Xin'er was both shocked and surprised.
"Consort, you don’t blame me at all!?"
"Haha, silly girl, how could I blame you? By the way, now that you're back, there's someone who has been clamoring to see you!"
"Who!?"
Upon hearing Cold Consort's words, Xin'er became curious.
However, Cold Consort kept her secret and only instructed someone to take Xin'er back to her own courtyard.
When Xin'er saw the familiar little boy who had grown quite a bit, she was overwhelmed with joy and tears. The days were cold.
"Little Bao, Little Bao..."
"Woo woo, sister, I finally see you! Sister, Little Bao misses you so much!"
"Woo woo, Little Bao, I miss you too!"
Hearing Little Bao's words, Xin'er laughed and cried at the same time.
In the end, the two embraced tightly, both turning into teary messes.
...
After returning to Cold Manor, Leng Yixuan found the eccentric doctor Dongfang Manlou waiting for him.
Although Leng Yixuan's eyes were poisoned and he couldn't see anything, he felt no worry at all.
Because with his skilled cousin around, this little bit of poison was nothing to him.
Sure enough, under Dongfang Manlou's superb medical skills, Leng Yixuan was able to see again within two days.
This made Xin'er even more delighted.
At that moment, Cold Consort seized the opportunity to announce that since Xin'er was expecting a child, a wedding must be held once again.
Thus, preparations for the wedding began in full swing once more.
Due to the previous incident, everyone was even more protective of Xin'er than before.
Leng Yixuan had dispatched several skilled warriors to attend to Xin'er.
Meanwhile, the incident involving Aotian Xue was known not only to the Emperor of the Celestial Yuan Dynasty but also to the Emperor of Qi Kingdom.
This infuriated the Qi Emperor.
The Celestial Yuan Dynasty and Qi Kingdom had always maintained a good relationship, and now such a scandal had arisen.
Although the Qi Emperor favored Aotian Xue, he was more concerned about his kingdom. To appease Leng Yixuan, he sent over many precious items as an apology.
He also imposed a heavy punishment on Aotian Xue.
However, upon returning to her country, Aotian Xue showed no signs of remorse. Instead, she confronted the Qi Emperor, boldly declaring her love for Leng Yixuan. As a princess of noble status, she questioned why she should be inferior to that shameless woman.
Hearing Aotian Xue's words nearly drove the Qi Emperor to his grave in anger.
Unable to contain his fury, the Qi Emperor issued a decree to marry Aotian Xue off to the Emperor of Xiliang Kingdom.
It was said that the Emperor of Xiliang Kingdom was quite old, over sixty years of age.
This time, fearing that Aotian Xue would cause further trouble, the Qi Emperor decided to send her away immediately.
Rumor had it that once Aotian Xue married into Xiliang Kingdom, the emperor took a great liking to her and lavished her with affection every night...
June fifteenth was a bright and sunny day.
On this day, all the prominent families in the capital rose early and filled the streets with their presence.
Today is the day of the grand wedding of Leng Yixuan.
The procession to welcome the bride is adorned in vibrant red, making onlookers envious.
Riding a magnificent steed at the front of the welcoming party, the Groom stands tall and handsome, captivating the hearts of countless women.
However, in his heart, there is only one woman...
Because Xin'er is pregnant, everyone is considerate of her during this grand wedding, fearing that she might tire easily. Thus, after the ceremony, they quickly escort Xin'er back to her room.
Xin'er obediently stays in the bridal chamber, while Xiao Huan chats and jokes with her to keep her entertained. The Matchmaker continuously offers auspicious words, filling Xin'er with joy.
After waiting for a long time in the room, Xin'er, due to her pregnancy, becomes easily fatigued.
Unknowingly, she falls asleep.
When she slowly awakens, she finds herself nestled in a broad and warm embrace.
As she lifts her beautiful eyes and gazes upon the strikingly handsome face before her, Xin'er gasps in surprise and sits up abruptly from the man's arms.
At that moment, she realizes that her shoes have been removed and her red veil has been lifted; she has been lying in his embrace for an unknown length of time.
Seeing this, Xin'er can't help but feel frustrated as she exclaims, "Xuan, how long have I been asleep? How did I fall asleep like this?!"
"Hehe, it's nothing serious. You're pregnant, so it's natural for you to feel tired. Besides, we don't need these formalities between us; as long as you are by my side, that's all that matters," Leng Yixuan replies, his gaze toward Xin'er filled with deep affection.
As he leaned closer, his face gradually descended towards Xin'er.
Seeing this, Xin'er realized that Leng Yixuan was going to kiss her, and her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She couldn't help but close her eyes.
However, the anticipated kiss did not land on her lips; instead, she felt a gentle peck on her belly.
When she looked down, she met Leng Yixuan's smiling deep black eyes. Realizing she had been teased, her delicate face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
Her red lips pouted slightly, arching high.
Leng Yixuan couldn't help but cup Xin'er's face in his hands. He leaned down and pecked her high-arched lips, laughing as he spoke.
"Fool, I love you and our child!"
"Hehe, you're the fool. But I love you too..."
Upon hearing Xin'er's words, Leng Yixuan couldn't resist bending down to give her a passionate kiss...
The End
