Listening to Xi Jin’s panicked and incredulous voice caused Shen Yunya to shed tears uncontrollably. She said in a voice choked with emotions, “You’re not dreaming. It’s true. I’m Ya’er.”
“Ya’er.” Xi Jin suddenly embraced Shen Yunya. It was a very tight embrace as if he were afraid of her disappearing.
Feng Tianlan followed over and saw the two people hugging each other. She frowned. Was Big Brother Jin so drunk that he hugged Shen Yunya?
But next, she saw Xi Jin reach out and he seemed to put something into his mouth. Then he moved Shen Yunya away. With one hand holding the back of her head and another hand embracing her slender waist, he bowed his head and kissed her.
Seeing this, Feng Tianlan frowned even deeper. He actually kissed Shen Yunya? Had he fallen for her?
Feng Tianlan wanted to step out to stop it but realized she was in no position to. And she felt that Xi Jin seemed very strange today. She’d better wait and see to find out what was going on.
The sudden kiss made Shen Yunya’s body go rigid. Her head instantly went blank. She widened her eyes and looked at the face zoomed in right in front of her. She thought of nothing except one thing—Was Big Brother Jin kissing her?
It used to be hard for Big Brother Jin to even hold her hand, let alone kiss her like this.
And Big Brother Jin’s kiss was extremely sweet. It was so sweet that she thought it was a dream.
Xi Jin gave her a deep kiss to pass the item inside his mouth into Shen Yunya’s mouth, letting her drink every single drop before he released her. Then he stooped to the side and violently threw up.
Disgusting!
He had never been so disgusted before!
If Shen Yunya were not an Alchemist and sensitive to the taste of medicine, why would he need to give her the medicine in such a way?
Shen Yunya came back to her senses from that sweet kiss and looked at Big Brother Jin who was violently throwing up at the side. She was suddenly distressed and hurried to help him, patting his back. She asked, “Big Brother Jin, you drank too much. Are you all right?”
Xi Jin only felt disgusted. He vomited till there was nothing left to throw up and then he stood up. He looked at Shen Yunya with a sober expression. As if he were drunk, he held her hand and asked, “Ya’er, why did you call off the wedding?”
“I…” Shen Yunya found it hard to speak.
“I used to like Dai’er in the past. But since I experienced that life-and-death situation, I know that the person I really like is Ya’er. I only deceived my own heart because of Dai’er’s death. But it’s too late,” he said.
Shen Yunya was pulled into his embrace all of a sudden. She smelled a hint of wine on his body and fingered the bridegroom’s suit he was wearing. She listened to his words, and her tears could not help but fall. She said, “It’s not too late. Not too late at all. I like Big Brother Jin.”
As if he did not hear her, Xi Jin continued to speak his own words, saying, “Ya’er, do you know that I prepared this banquet for you today? But you didn’t want it. You rejected it and you don’t like me. Do you know how pained my heart is? It’s as if I can’t breathe. If you had agreed, today should have been our wedding night.”
Listening to his crying and those words, which sounded so grieved as to wish one were dead, all of Shen Yunya’s thoughts and reason had long been thrown out unimaginably far away. She said, “Big Brother Jin, I’m sorry. I regret it.”
“You said you won’t marry me in this lifetime, so I conferred a secondary consort. I even prepared a wedding ceremony for you, but…”
Listening to Xi Jin’s words as he cried and talked, which were also the truth he spat out after drinking, Shen Yunya regretted everything so much that her stomach hurt. She long knew that these were all prepared for her. She had agreed at the time.
Big Brother Jin liked her. He really gave a lot of thought to it, but she did not know anything.
Not only did she not know these things, but also she still did not know that Xi Jin was talking about being so in pain as to not want to live. But in the circumstances, which she could not see, that gentle face was actually full of ruthlessness and murderous spirit, as well as disgust.
