Jing Jiaren was suddenly lifted up by a force while she was sleeping. What happened, running away? No more marriage?
"I can't marry a woman other than you?" Only an outline of his face could be seen in the darkness, "I will take you away."
"Ximen Longting, wait..." Jing Jiaren was dragged away by him before she could do it in time.
They fled into the forest, followed by countless bright torches.
Jing Jiaren was injured while running and fell hard to the ground, but was picked up by Ximen Longting.
"Ximen Longting, have we forgotten something?"
"..."
"Ximen Longting, wait! We forgot the most precious thing in the castle..." Jing Jiaren shouted desperately, wait, that thing must be taken away... What is it, she racked her brains.
…
Suddenly, Jing Jiaren was covered in sweat and woke up from her dream. She remembered that it was SUN that had been forgotten.
Jing Jiaren wiped the sweat from her forehead. If SUN knew that she dreamed of running away with her father but left him behind, she would be very upset.
Jing Jiaren shook her head bitterly. She was very tired, exhausted, and hungry.
I thought she would have insomnia last night, but she didn't expect to fall asleep soon after lying on the bed, and it was dawn.
Today is Ximen Longting’s wedding, right?
Jing Jiaren looked at the time and saw that it was still early, so she washed herself and went out.
Unexpectedly, Leng Lintian got up earlier and sat on the hanging basket chair in the courtyard.
"woke up?"
Hearing her footsteps, he didn't look back. He put out the cigarette lightly and waved away the smoke.
I remember he said he would quit smoking for her before, but at least he never smoked for her again after that...
"Master Ximen invited me, and we all have to go to this wedding." Jing Jiaren darkened her eyes, "In other words, he prepared this wedding for me."
"..."
"Can I not go?"
Even if she knew it was false, she didn't want to see Ximen Longting marry Ji Zihan.
Leng Lintian turned the hanging basket chair around, and behind him was a sea of enchanting flowers. The corners of his mouth curled up into an even more enchanting and wanton smile: "Miss Jing, could you please tell me what day it is today?"
"……What's the meaning!?"
"You slept for three days and three nights."
Jing Jiaren was stunned, how could she sleep for so long?
"There was something wrong with the aromatherapy oil you ordered while I was sleeping last night?"
Generally speaking, pregnant women should not smell these. Leng Lintian said it was okay, harmless to pregnant women, and helpful for her insomnia.
Leng Lintian corrected: "To be precise, it was three nights ago."
Jing Jiaren sat down in the hanging basket chair next to her: "Was it his idea?"
She remembered that he said that to avoid Mr. Ximen's punishment on Sun, he had to let Sun fall asleep.
"So, during the three days I was asleep, the wedding was over?" Jing Jiaren stared blankly ahead, "Was it a grand event? Are all the 13 elders here? Did Mr. Ximen have someone come and take me there?
"
Leng Lintian was about to speak.
Jing Jiaren refused again: "No need to tell me, I don't want to know."
"..."
"I don't want to know about his marriage to another woman at all." Although she was very curious about the wedding process!
Leng Lintian's eyes were very deep: "I didn't expect you to be so cowardly sometimes."
"Is it safe to talk here?"
"Don't worry, even if there are surveillance cameras outside, they won't be able to record any sound."
