6 The Wedding Nigh (1/2)

After drinking the wine, they stared at each other, not knowing what to do. It was supposed to be their wedding night. Yao Ying cleared his throat, trying to compose his thought. Yao Ling just looked down shyly.

What should they do? Both lost in their own thought. They didn't dare to look at the other. The atmosphere became really weird.

Yao Ying remembered his promise not to touch her for six months. He didn't know what he felt about her at the moment, but still… he's a man. To say he didn't have any desire then that would be a lie. Truthfully, today has been really tiring. They did all their preparations on their own. After finishing the whole ceremony, the tiredness started to get to him.

He wanted to sleep, but he didn't know how to express his opinion. If he asked her to go to bed with him, would she think he wanted to eat her? She probably would misunderstand him, so he decided against it. He just stayed silent.

Yao Ling indeed said that she didn't want to consummate their marriage first, but the last conversation about it indeed made her angry. He said I am just a kid? Hmpf! That sentence gave a blow to her. She made up her mind, teasing him a little would be fine, right? She was busy thinking about her plot, not realizing Yao Ying sat like a block of wood and glancing at her once in a while.

He wondered what's inside her head at the moment. Her expressions kept changing, First, furrowing her eyebrows, then she smiled evilly. After that, she shook her head, then nodded her head. He was helplessly looking at her. He knew when she was like this, it means she was planning something.

A few minutes felt like a long time because of the dreary silence. Yao Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so he cleared his throat to break the silence. ”Ling-er, what are you thinking about?”

Yao Ling jumped in surprise because of the sudden question, fortunately, her plan has been formed in her mind. She smiled shyly and shook her head, ”Nothing.”

After a few moments, she talked again. ”I want to take off my phoenix coronet and tidy up myself for a bit. Do you want me to help you take off your robe?” Wasn't that what she supposed to do as a wife? Her mother didn't have the chance to tell her what to do after marriage, so she only knew bits and pieces.

”No need. Just do what you want to do.”

Yao Ling nodded and stood up. She went to a small table near the bed and sat there. She slowly took off the phoenix coronet and opened her hair knot. She let her hair slowly falling down and then combed it. Yao Ying saw that from behind and somehow it made him gulp. She looked so delicate and womanly. For the first time, he saw her as a real woman. He knew she's beautiful and all that, but he previously only saw her as a little sister. Now… she's his wife. It changed his opinion a little bit.

Yao Ling didn't know a simple movement from her could affect him that much. Actually, this wasn't even a part of her plan. She truly felt tired and the coronet made her neck feel like it was going to break. She took a long time combing her hair, feeling indecisive. Should she really do her plan? After thinking what she would do next, she blushed in embarrassment.

Yao Ying looked at her in puzzlement. Was a woman always needs a lot of time to comb hair? He felt so tired and wanted to go to bed, but he didn't have the heart to sleep first on their wedding night. They… should sleep together, right? He decided to call Yao Ling, ”Ling-er, are you… finished?”

”En… I'm finished.”

Yao Ling turned around and let her back facing Yao Ying. She stood up and slowly opened her outer robe, letting it slide down to the ground. Then she bravely opened her wedding dress. She tried to hide her embarrassment, but under the soft candlelight, her blushing face looked endearing.

Yao Ying… could only gulp. He couldn't move his gave from his wife. His untouchable wife. It was going to be a very long night for him.

Yao Ling didn't stop there. She only left her soft pink inner garment. It was thin, but not see-through. However, the material clinging on her body and accentuating Yao Ling's body. You could say that it was seductive, but still appropriate. For Yao Ying… it was frustrating.

When Yao Ling turned her body around – facing him, he could feel his blood boiling. For the first time, he felt a desire to Yao Ling. How could he not? She looked absolutely beautiful and ravishing.

Her body was quite mature for 15-year-old. He admitted he wanted her, but he was also a man of his words. Six months… he would bear for six months. He made a promise and he would never break it. He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down.
