He definitely did it on purpose!
Xiao Rong'er had already fallen asleep by his side, but Ye Jinxiu still had her eyes open as she thought about the previous scene.
When she closed her eyes, she could picture his face.
In the deep, chaotic night, Ye Jinsu had a beautiful dream. She dreamt that Ning Yunyin had come to pick her up. Everyone was urging her to change into a wedding dress. She got on Ning Yunyin's bridal sedan and bowed to him.
The host's voice was extremely loud, and the couple bowing together was exceptionally loud.
Red candles were flickering everywhere, and sounds of celebration could be heard everywhere. Her head was covered, and all she could see was a naked red. The red color in the dream continued to spread.
Suddenly, the surrounding voices stopped.
Terrifying silence.
Ye Jinxiu suddenly became flustered. She tore off the top of her head, but all she could see was a patch of red …
Ye Jinxiu sat up suddenly as beads of cold sweat the size of beans oozed out of her forehead.
Xiao Rong'er sat in front of the mirror and turned around to look at Ye Jinsu. ”You had a nightmare?”
Only then did Ye Jinxiu regain her senses. She released the hand that was tightly clutching the blanket, and lowered her head with a lingering fear in her heart.
A second before she woke up, she saw a blinding red patch of blood. Ning Yunyin was lying in that patch of red.
She got up and washed her face with cold water. Only then did she completely calm down.
Xiao Rong'er was still dawdling in her room.
Ye Jinsu walked in and saw that Xiao Rong'er was fiddling with her face. Some rouge powder was placed on the stage, and little Rong'er was holding her cheeks as she tried to figure out how to use it.
”You're not married yet and you're thinking of dressing up?” Ye Jinsu laughed and walked over to close the box. ”That's why I'm here to propose. Why are you in such a hurry? If you want to dress up, you might as well wait for the day of the wedding.”
Xiao Rong'er became angry from embarrassment and pushed Ye Jinsu away.
Ye Jinsu stood on the spot and smiled helplessly.
As expected, people from the Xu Family arrived on time. The two parents wore their betrothal gifts as they came smiling. They had agreed on it previously, but now, it was just a formality for a auspicious occasion.
As Xu Lianhai followed behind his parents, the happiness on his face couldn't even be concealed.
Ye Jinsu sat at the side, watching Xiao Rong'er and Xu Lianjing sit opposite each other. The two of them lowered their heads, not even daring to look at each other.
Ye Jinshu nudged Little Rong'er and teased her, ”I'm not watching right now. When your dad accepts the betrothal gift, you won't be able to meet each other again until the day of the wedding, right?”
Xiao Rong'er's face became anxious. She couldn't care less and raised her head to look at Xu Lianchai.
After reading it, he hurriedly lowered his head.
She really looked like a young girl in love, really shy. Ye Jinsu couldn't help but think of her usual shameless appearance with Ning Yunyin and felt deeply ashamed.
What little Rong'er was wearing on her head today was the hairpin Xu Lianshan had given her. Naturally, Xu Lianhai also saw it and was so happy that the corner of his mouth never dropped. He stuttered as he looked at Xiao Rong'er: ”You …” ”You're so beautiful …”
Xiao Rong'er lowered her head and smiled, her heart was jumping with joy.
Ye Jinxiu shook her head and sighed.
”See that? Beauty is useless.” Ye Jinsu nudged Ning Yunyin with his elbow as he spoke, secretly smiling.
”As long as it's useful to you.” Ning Yunshu replied smoothly without the slightest bit of embarrassment.
Ye Jinsu harrumphed.
She thought back to last night, and it really was …
Useful for her.
