Feng Tianlan went forward and took a close look at her. She then nodded seriously as she said, “You look good. You’re the prettiest bride.”
Hints of shyness could be seen on Gu Nansheng’s face. She had a rather anticipatory look. “He’ll like me, right?”
“Silly child, Wu Yuan would definitely like you.” The Beiqi Queen Mother looked at her with affection. Her eyes were brimming with tears. She felt reluctant to let her go but was looking forward to it at the same time.
She didn’t have much time left in her life. Her biggest wish was seeing her daughter starting her own family. Now that she had her own family, she could leave more peacefully when the time comes.
Gu Nansheng looked as if she had thought of something. She was smiling brightly, like the sun rising from the east. She looked confident and dazzling. “I think so too. Forever is a long time — he’ll like me at some point.”
Even if he didn’t like her now, he would do so one day. If she played her part well, Wu Yuan would like her, right?
After all, it was not necessary for a person to only like one person in his or her life. She believed that Wu Yuan would discover her merits and like her.
Looking at Gu Nansheng’s smile that was filled with bliss and anticipation, Feng Tianlan couldn’t help but smile as well. People who were easily contented would feel blissful easily. She didn’t have much demands as well. Once she got her revenge, if her relationship with Mobai was sturdy as always, she could also get married, have children and live a peaceful life.
“Tianlan, looking at me, are you thinking about how you’ll look when you’re getting married to the wargod?” Gu Nansheng was sitting in front of her dressing table while looking at her through the mirror, while her bridesmaid was fixing her up.
Feng Tianlan was thinking about her earlier thoughts. She then giggled and nodded. “I believe getting married with the person you love is every girl’s dream.”
“Isn’t it blissful?” Gu Nansheng looked at herself dressed in red with an embroidery of doves sewn at the side of her dress. The word ‘Joy’ was sewn on her red bridal veil. She couldn’t help but pucker her lips when she imagined Wu Yuan lifting up her bridal veil. “Even if… I’ll still be blissful.”
Even if the person Wu Yuan that liked wasn’t her, getting married to him was blissful enough.
“If there’s only one person in his heart, I’ll be very blissful indeed.” However, if he were to have many wives, she wouldn’t want to have that kind of life. She wouldn’t be able to take it no matter how much she loved him.
However, everyone had their own opinion. Therefore, she wouldn’t let Nansheng do the same. After all, having many partners were normal to these people. If the man only married one wife, his wife would be blamed for jealousy.
Maybe because she was nervous and excited, Gu Nansheng was forcing a conversation with Feng Tianlan. She talked a lot, but they were mostly trivial matters. However, her tone revealed that she was filled with hope and bliss towards her future life.
The sky was slowly turning bright. Gu Nansheng was almost ready. As she was a princess marrying to a faraway place, everything was very strict.
“Tianlan, I’m very nervous.” Gu Nansheng put on her red veil. Everything turned red in front of her eyes. She could only see her exposed legs. She was extremely nervous when she thought about getting married in just a few moments.
Feng Tianlan remembered Gu Nansheng’s first time meeting Wu Yuan. She then giggled. “Think about whether he’s a gay. Maybe you won’t feel as nervous anymore.”
“Seems like it.” Gu Nansheng laughed as well.
The bridesmaid ran into the room. “Princess, it’s time. We should leave now.”
Gu Nansheng, who had just become relaxed, was nervous once again. “Tianlan, hold my hand when I walk out, or else I’ll be very nervous.”
Feng Tianlan deepened her voice. “This is against the rules. This is a grand wedding, a lifetime event.”
Gu Nansheng pouted helplessly. “Alright then. But I’ve a lot of things to tell you. I’ve a lifetime of stuff to talk to you about.”
