“Let’s go! Get the bride!”
The sight of the rowdy crowd rushing into the villa was a grand scene. As the men hurried into the house, Yun Jian paused slightly before she grabbed Si Yi’s hand instinctively to run in as well.
It had always been quiet at night but right now, it was infused with bliss and delight, spreading the joy to everyone awake.
When Yun Jian ran into the villa holding Si Yi’s larger hand, Ge Junjian’s comrades had already come downstairs with the bride in tow, cheering and hurrahing. Ge Junjian himself was involved as well; he was not snatching the bride but stopping his comrades from getting her. Ultimately, his comrades managed to carry Qin Yirou downstairs in good spirit.
With her mother being snatched to be carried downstairs, Yun Jian did not move a single muscle. It was all fun and games, just to add to everyone’s joy, so she would not interfere with it.
“Jiejie, I got a big pillow!”
“Me too! I got a big tumbler!”
“I got… I got a slipper…”
Yun Zhu, Duan Li and Duan Ya held their loot and ran over when they saw Yun Jian. It amused the latter. Qin Yirou and Ge Junjian were married, so this was their house; nobody would rob their own house. Despite that, Yun Jian did not expose them.
“That’s awesome,” Si Yi extended a hand to pat Yun Zhu who was the nearest to him and praised the boy dutifully.
“Heh heh, Si Yi-gege is awesome too!” Yun Zhu replied bashfully.
The boy then padded to Yun Jian and pulled her hand to drop it in Si Yi’s palm.
“Si Yi-gege says I’m awesome so I’ll give jiejie to you,” Yun Zhu said and ran off with Duan Li and Duan Ya before Yun Jian could get even with him.
Yun Jian winced on the spot, not noticing Si Yi who arched a brow next to her.
…
The banter ritual ended merrily. Those who were involved went home with their “loots”—some wedding treats, cigarettes, bed linens and whatnot.
The night returned to its peace and silence soon.
Logically, Yun Jian should stay in Ge Junjian’s place since Qin Yirou was already married to him. It made sense that she stayed together. Despite that, Si Yi tugged Yun Jian by her hand and left Ge Junjian’s house in his Lamborghini.
Qin Yirou was not worried at all that Yun Jian was going out with Si Yi.
As Yun Jian got seated in Si Yi’s car and the young man drove out of Ge Junjian’s place, he stopped swiftly at a villa that was very close to Ge Junjian’s house that looked even more luxurious before pulling Yun Jian into it.
“Do you like it?” The interior of the villa was sparkling new when Si Yi brought Yun Jian in through the door. It was obvious that the house was freshly renovated.
“This is…” Yun Jian raised a brow.
“We’ll stay here from now on, only the two of us.” Si Yi took Yun Jian into the house after opening the door.
He paused before continuing, “You only need three minutes to walk to Uncle Ge’s place from here, so you can go over anytime.”
So Si Yi had planned to buy the land around here and sent workers here to do the renovation a long time ago? Yun Jian’s gaze lingered on Si Yi.
The surrounding was quiet. With the dim yellow glow from the light on the ceiling that engulfed Yun Jian, it encased her in an exceptional enticement.
The door was already closed tight. With parched throat, Si Yi grabbed Yun Jian’s hand before the girl said anything and threw them on the couch nearby together, landing with him on top of her.
