Chapter 1092

~5 min read 895 words

The hesitation in her eyes gradually faded.

But before she could say anything,

the lovely-looking Miss Miss Xiaolei had already walked over gracefully.

Smiling prettily, she said:

"Son-in-law, Jun Zhu Yi Jing is ready. This servant will take you to change."

Under Gu Gu Hanyuan's instructions, Miss Miss Xiaolei had previously escaped the palace.

After evading the chaos within the imperial palace,

she only returned after receiving a message from Gu Gu Hanyuan.

She learned that Gu Gu Hanyuan and Wu Wu Wu Xingyun—who was disguised as Li Li Qinglu—were to be wed.

She, the bedchamber maid, was about to become so in truth.

Recalling the attentions she had given Gu Gu Hanyuan before,

she naturally grew all the more bashful.

No sooner had she finished speaking than she lowered her gaze.

Yet her pretty face had already flushed to the tips of her ears.

Gu Gu Hanyuan had no intention of keeping Wu Wu Wu Xingyun waiting long.

He had no mind to tease the charming maid.

Leaving Li Qiu behind with her thoughts growing ever more tangled,

he followed Miss Miss Xiaolei away.

Under Miss Miss Xiaolei's ministrations, he donned the groom's robes.

Though they were not as splendid as the set Gu Gu Hanyuan had prepared on Taohuadao,

the result of Wu Wu Wu Xingyun's careful selection was nonetheless exquisite and fitting.

The effect could be seen plainly from Miss Miss Xiaolei's already-stunned expression.

She only came back to herself when Gu Gu Hanyuan reminded her.

Naturally, her pretty face flushed crimson once more.

This shy, bashful maid had absolutely no resistance whatsoever before Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Led by Miss Miss Xiaolei, Gu Gu Hanyuan soon saw Wu Wu Wu Xingyun again.

She too wore a bright red wedding gown, now adorned with many Western Xia ethnic elements.

Tailored to perfection, incomparably exquisite.

It set off Wu Wu Wu Xingyun's graceful figure, making her all the more slender and enchanting.

Even the flatness at her chest was flawlessly concealed.

Instead, it accentuated the delicate curve of her slender waist.

A pity the bright red bridal veil hid her matchlessly beautiful face.

Gu Gu Hanyuan stepped forward and took her soft hand.

In a gentle voice, he said:

"I've kept the Junzhu waiting."

Wu Wu Wu Xingyun felt the warmth passing from his palm.

She could not help but give a delicate shiver.

Suddenly, she rather regretted borrowing Li Li Qinglu's identity.

But things had already come to this.

No amount of regret would help.

She drew a deep breath.

Steadying her turbulent emotions,

she said tenderly:

"No matter how long, I'm willing to wait."

If she were not currently playing the role of Li Li Qinglu,

given Wu Wu Wu Xingyun's originally proud and tsundere nature,

such heartfelt words could never have been spoken to Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Gu Gu Hanyuan chuckled softly at her words...

He tightened his grip on her hand a little more.

Yet his gaze, full of playful interest, drifted toward the distance.

There, Li Li Qinglu was watching from afar.

When Li Li Qinglu saw Gu Gu Hanyuan suddenly look her way,

she started at first.

Then she cutely wrinkled her little nose.

Expressing her displeasure.

After all, Wu Wu Wu Xingyun had stolen an important moment of her life.

She had originally thought to simply keep out of sight and out of mind.

Yet in the end, she still could not resist sneaking over to watch.

Fortunately, she had already tasted sweetness in the ice cellar.

And Gu Gu Hanyuan had also made a promise to make it up to her in the future.

Still, a twinge of sourness in her heart was unavoidable.

Li Li Qinglu and Gu Gu Hanyuan exchanged a knowing look for a moment.

Her mood immediately improved considerably.

Li Qiu, however, did not notice Li Li Qinglu.

Or rather, her mind simply could not wander anywhere else.

She had already been shaken by what Gu Gu Hanyuan had said earlier.

Now, looking again at Wu Wu Xingyun in her bridal gown.

The jealousy in her heart only grew.

Especially with Gu Gu Hanyuan beside her—devastatingly handsome enough to dazzle the eye and steal the soul.

It made it all the harder for her to look away.

The thoughts in her heart naturally grew more and more intense.

Originally, a princess's grand wedding was extremely elaborate.

All the various rites were enough to give one a headache.

But Gu Gu Hanyuan and Wu Wu Xingyun both decided to keep everything simple.

Therefore, they omitted those complicated rites.

Li Qiu, looking utterly fed up, served as the stand-in for Wu Wu Xingyun's parents.

Finally came the bow between husband and wife.

Hearing Miss Miss Xiaolei chant "Escort them to the bridal chamber."

Wu Wu Xingyun's heart stirred.

Was she finally about to have her wish fulfilled?

But just at that moment.

The noon sunlight shone down.

Wu Wu Xingyun's delicate body trembled violently.

She nearly failed to keep her footing.

Fortunately, Gu Gu Hanyuan was beside her and caught her in time.

He asked with concern:

"What is it, my lady?"

Today was precisely the day Wu Wu Xingyun's "Eight Wastes, Six Directions, Sole Dominance Art" reached completion in Circulating Qi.

She had also prepared herself mentally for being affected.

She just hadn't expected it to be more severe than she had imagined.
