The wedding

Like my past life, I still had to marry Ye Wangxi. Today, my second sister would come and get mad at me. I should just have a nice nap and ignore her.

Everybody in the mansion was busy preparing for the wedding. Qingyun was sleeping until Xi'er started yelling, "Miss!" "What?" "The second princess is here." "Why so early? I still want my sleep, " whined Qingyun. Xi'er gulped and said, "She's making a fuss." "Is she breaking things?" "No." "Is she bullying you?" "No." "Then there's no problem." "But she is yelling bad things about you." "Fine."

Qingyun left her room and greeted Xuanyin. "Hello, second sister. What wind blew you here?" asked Qingyun. "What's wrong? I'm your second sister. Can't I come here to visit you?" asked Xuanyin with a glare. "Of course you can, but I am pretty sure you don't want to visit me." "Duh. I'm here to abolish your marriage arrangement with brother Ye." "Go ahead."

Xuanyin was shocked. "You don't want to marry him?" asked Xuanyin. "I don't want to marry him. I tried to reject the marriage proposal, but Empress Dowager said no, " said Qingyun. "Why would she even give you brother Ye. He is so perfect while you are trash. You are not good enough for him." "Yeah. I'm not good enough for him. You're the only one good enough for him, " said Qingyun with a sarcastic voice. "Yeah. I am the only one good enough for him."

What the? Did you not hear my sarcastic tone? Nevermind, you must have been in your imagination land, where you guys marry.

"Second sister, I don't agree with this marriage, so you should talk some sense with the Empress Dowager. I am still busy, so I have to go back. Goodbye." I went back to my room and went back to sleep.

I need to save my energy so I can have a better chance of winning when fighting a battle.

The second princess went to Empress Dowager to stop the wedding from happening, but she got refused. Empress Dowager grounded the second princess so she won't cause any trouble on the wedding day.

Two days passed, and it was the day of the wedding.

Ye Wangxi got picked up by the wedding procession and went to the Empress Dowager's mansion. Ye Wangxi and Qingyun did the wedding etiquettes, and Ye Wangxi went into the bridal chambers.

The wedding was over, and Qingyun was thinking of what to do next.

What should I do next? Last time, I didn't visit him, but in this life, I want to be a better person. So, maybe I should visit him. He must be hungry. No one can say no to food, right?

"Master Ye, the third princess said 'that she won't be spending the night with you.' So you don't need to wait for her, " said a maid.

Master Ye felt disappointed and sighed. He was about to blow out the candle until someone said, "When did I say that?" "Third princess. I'm sorry, I didn't mean that," said the maid. "Then what did you mean?" asked, Qingyun. "I meant that you were busy, so you probably won't visit him." "Huh. For punishment, you should go kneel outside for three hours." "Yes, third princess," said the maid.

Qingyun opened the door and went inside. Ye Wangxi was sitting on the bed with a veil covering his face, so Qingyun took it off in regards to the wedding etiquettes. "Hello," said Qingyun. "I pay respects to the third princess," said Ye Wangxi. "Skip the etiquettes. You must be hungry. Here's some food," said Qingyun. Qingyunput the basket of food on the table and Ye Wangxi stared at Qingyunin shock.

"What's wrong?" asked Qingyun. "Nothing, but why are you bringing me food?" asked Ye Wangxi. "Uh, the food is for you to eat. Why?" asked Qingyun. "I thought you were going to...nevermind."

Qingyun took out the dishes and placed them on the table. "Let's eat," said Qingyun. Ye Wangxi didn't move. "What's wrong?" asked Qingyun. Ye Wangxi pointed at the wine on the table. "Oh."

Based on the wedding etiquette, other than taking off the veil, the wife also has to drink a cup of wine with her husband. Qingyun poured each of them some wine, and they both drank it.

"Let's eat now," said Qingyun. "You're going to eat?" asked Ye Wangxi. Qingyun stared blankly at him. "Um, of course, I'm going to eat. I'm hungry," said Qingyun. "I thought you would have eaten a lot in the wedding banquet," said Wangxi. "The banquet food wasn't enough to fill my stomach." They began eating, and after a while, they finished.

"I'm full. Should I sleep or wait for a few minutes?" asked Qingyun. "I think you should wait for a few minutes," said Wangxi. "Yeah, good idea."

For a few minutes, Wangxi kept on staring at Qingyun with an eyebrow raised. "Why are you staring at me?" asked Qingyun. "I'm confused," said Wangxi. "With what?" "Why are you so nice to me today? I thought you hated me." "I don't hate you. I regard you as a friend." "Oh."

"It's time to sleep," yawned Qingyun. Qingyun grabbed a blanket on the bed and put it on the ground. "What are you doing?" asked Wangxi. "Preparing to sleep," said Qingyun. "Here?" "Uh, yeah. Are you feeling alright?" asked Qingyun. Qingyun felt his forehead and said, "You don't have a fever. Whatever," said Qingyun.

"You shouldn't be sleeping on the floor. You are a princess," said Wangxi. "So? I like sleeping on the floor," said Qingyun. "You do?" asked Wangxi. "Yep. Sleeping on the floor is good for your back," said Qingyun. "Oh." "Well, I'm going to sleep, so goodnight," said Qingyun. Qingyun blew out the candle and laid down on the blanket.

Why is Ye Wangxi acting so weird? He is asking so many questions than usual. Whatever he probably isn't used to the surroundings yet, so he doesn't feel safe. ~ Qingyun's thoughts

Why is the third princess acting so weird? She even came to the bridal chambers and sleeping in the same room as me. I thought she hated me. ~Wangxi's thoughts
