Liu Ping wailed and screamed. He really feared for his life now. If he lost half his life and still had to be handed over to Majesty Huang, he was really scared of what was about to happen to him. He cried, screamed, and even kneeled and bowed his head down several times, but he was still dragged away.

After Liu Ping was dragged out, An Yexuan slumped down on the chair, drained from energy. He began to see black spots and felt a little depressed. He stared at the night sky and thought about what Liu Ping had just said.

Did everyone know that he hated Yun Bixue and wanted to humiliate her?

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt. He felt that the house was too stuffy, so much that he could not breathe. He got up and opened the windows, feeling the cool night breeze on his face. Only then did he feel like he could breathe normally again.

It could be said that An Yexuan continued to live in the past, while everyone else moved on. He, however, had paused in his tracks.

Ning An City

After Yun Bixue fell asleep, Xie Limo kept looking at her. His exquisite eyes reflected a gentle and indulgent glow. It was intoxicating and capable of stealing people's hearts.

He just stared at her like this quietly. He did not feel sleepy at all, as though he could never see enough of her. Even his heart felt intoxicated. Even though there was a small blunder today, she had really become his wife, and his friends and family were there to witness it.

This was a strangely wonderful feeling, and the joy that he was feeling was as beautiful as the rainbow.

Yun Bixue did not know how long she slept. When she turned and opened her eyes in a daze, she met Xie Limo's gentle and warm gaze. She rubbed her eyes and yawned before asking, “Why are you still awake? What time is it?”

Xie Limo wrapped his hand around Yun Bixue's waist and pulled her into his embrace. He took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh scent of her hair as he said, “I can't sleep.”

“It's late already, and you can't sleep? Quick, go to sleep now!” As she said that, she yawned again and, as if she was coaxing a child, she patted Xie Limo's arm before closing her eyes to sleep.

Seeing how Yun Bixue was acting, Xie Limo did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said in a low voice, “My dear, shouldn't you keep me company?” If she did not wake up, he would not disturb her. However, if she woke up, it was a different matter.

Yun Bixue was half-awake when she replied, “What company? Am I not keeping you company now?”

The corners of Xie Limo's mouth twitched. He could only bend down and kiss Yun Bixue's ear, breathing delicately as he whispered, “My dear!”

Yun Bixue could obviously feel a certain part of his body burning with pa.s.sion. She widened her eyes and turned to look at Xie Limo, stuttering as she said, “Hubby, y-you…”

Xie Limo sighed softly and said, “It's exactly what you think.”

Yun Bixue suddenly remembered that it was their wedding night. It seemed like she was not fulfilling her duty as his wife.

The moonlight shone into the bedroom. Following the moonlight, she looked at Xie Limo and saw that his brows were knitted together, as though he was holding it in.

Her heart skipped a beat. Her thoughts whirled before she bit her lip and said, “Hubby, do you feel very uncomfortable?”

Xie Limo could only laugh in his heart. To be honest, if he was sleepy, he would have slept already. However, tonight was their wedding night. He could not fall asleep and even hugged his dear wife in his arms. If he was not moved, he would be considered a saint already.

Although Xie Limo only raised his eyebrows, Yun Bixue felt guilty enough. Her face blushed before she took the initiative to kiss him.

That one kiss became the spark that would ignite the flames of pa.s.sion, setting them both on fire.
