Feng Tianlan answered softly. She was currently in Huo Mingcheng’s private residence. At this exact moment tomorrow, Mobai would come to fetch his bride. Thinking about the wedding scene, she became nervous and excited. She was so excited that she couldn’t fall asleep.
To avoid taboos, Mobai didn’t come with her tonight. Without him by her side, she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.
Seeing her like this, Lapis Lazuli knew that she could not be persuaded, so she left and stood guard outside the door.
After a while, a voice sounded from outside the window, followed by a familiar gentle voice, “Lan’er.”
“Mobai.” Hearing the voice, Feng Tianlan immediately lifted the quilt and got off the bed. She ran to the window in a few steps and reached out to push it open. However, she could not push it open since it was blocked outside.
“Don’t open it. It’s bad luck. My fiancée can’t sleep, so I’ll accompany her.” Si Mobai looked at the window paper and saw Feng Tianlan’s figure cast on it. He raised his hand and touched it, “I’ll accompany you for a while. Sleep peacefully. In a few hours, the matron of honor will be here. You’ll be tired by then.”
Feng Tianlan did not push anymore. She only looked at the figure leaning against the window. Her nervous and uneasy heart dissipated with his arrival and she softly answered.
“Quickly go to sleep. Your future husband will accompany you for a while.” Si Mobai urged her, afraid that she would not listen to him. He continued, “If you don’t go to sleep, your eyes will be black and blue tomorrow, and your expression will be tired. You won’t look beautiful anymore. Lan’er wants to get married like this, and then consummate the marriage?”
The words “consummate the marriage” made Feng Tianlan blush, and her voice became even softer. “Then I’ll go to sleep. You should go back and rest early too. Otherwise, you won’t have the energy.”
After saying that, she jumped onto the bed and covered herself with the blanket, revealing only her small head. Looking at the figure outside the window, she curled her lips in satisfaction.
A low laugh came from outside the window, making her so shy that she hurriedly closed her eyes. She had been taught badly by him.
Si Mobai waited at the window like this until dawn. It was almost time. He had just left when the matron of honor came in.
Feng Tianlan was awakened by the matron of honor’s voice. She subconsciously looked at the window. It was already empty. Had Mobai left?
“He just left.” Lapis Lazuli knew what she was thinking, so she replied softly.
Feng Tianlan got up from the bed. After washing up, she first ate the breakfast that Si Mobai had specially ordered. Then she sat in front of the dressing table and let the matron of honor comb her hair.
The first comb for husband and wife’s love, the second comb for the couple growing old together, the third comb for hundreds of children.
These auspicious words made Feng Tianlan’s eyes turn red. She suddenly remembered in her Mind Mirror that the marriage that she had experienced with her mother gently and lovingly combing her hair. Beside her were Yun Zhu, sister Lin, Chuling, and those good friends.
Even though it was just a dream, it still became her precious memory.
“Miss, Miss Huo is here.”
As she spoke, Huo Ruojun had already entered. She held a small box in her hand and glanced at Feng Tianlan, who was currently putting on her makeup. “Very pretty.”
No matter how hard she tried, she could not say the words of blessing. She did not like to say things that went against her heart. If she could not say it, she would not say it.
“Thank you.” Feng Tianlan raised her eyes and glanced at Huo Ruojun. She quite admired her.
Ever since they arrived in the capital, Huo Ruojun had left on her own. She did not appear in front of them again and did not disturb them at all.
Huo Ruojun looked at the people around her who were busily going back and forth. At this moment, they were checking the beautiful wedding clothes. Even her eyes lit up.
