Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

667 You still miss everyone [Bonus chapter]

Mingquan removed the veil from Lin Jiao's face and saw her smiling at him. "So, how does it feel to be my wife?" he asked as he gently pulled her up by placing his hands on her arms.

"Why doesn't Prince Mingquan answer me first?" Lin Jiao wrapped her arms around him and locked them on his nape. "How does it feel like to be my husband?" She lowered her hand and tapped his chin with her pointer finger.

"How should I explain it?" Mingquan mumbled. "A part of my soul feels completed," he said and touched his forehead with hers.

"I was always scared of marriage, but it feels incredible," Lin Jiao stated and she tip-toed to kiss him. Mingquan securely wrapped his arm around her waist and kept his other hand on her neck.

"You got an incredible life companion, that's why it feels that way," Mingquan said with a smile before claiming her lips. They kissed for a long time before withdrawing. After catching their breaths, Lin Jiao told her they should drink the wedding wine.

"Sure," Mingquan handed her the wine cup from the bedside table and then picked another for him. They crossed their arms with each other and drank the wine.

"It tastes sweeter," Lin Jiao said and put the wine cups on the table.

Mingquan caressed her cheeks with his hands and showered butterfly kisses on her face. Lin Jiao giggled and asked him to stop.

"You look so pretty in this dress, Lin Jiao," Mingquan said.

"You too. I could not take my eyes off you when you come in the evening," Lin Jiao stated and brought her hand to the shoulder buttons of the round-collared red outer robe. She opened them when Mingquan asked her about them.

"I am undressing my husband," Lin Jiao said and took a step back from him. She took it off him and put it away. "Ye Xin told me it is important on the wedding night," Lin Jiao said.

"So, you discussed with her already what you need to do on the wedding night," Mingquan asked in a teasing tone.

"Women do talk about all this," Lin Jiao said and hooked her fingers on the knot of the second robe. He caught her hand and moved toward her. She took backward steps while he took forward steps.

Her calf muscles hit the bed and her eyelids flickered. Her heartbeat fluttered with the thought of what would happen next. "Don't you feel hot in this heavy dress?" He asked.

"I do," Lin Jiao replied and lifted her eyes to meet his gaze.

Mingquan removed the outer robe from her body and then moved his hands to the sash right above her waist. He opened it which made her upper dress lose.

He kissed her nose tip and then kissed her cheek.

"Prince Mingquan, will we do it tonight?" Lin Jiao asked.

"Pardon me, what do you mean?" Mingquan acted unaware of what she said.

"You kn-know what I mean," Lin Jiao stated. "I know it is important," she said and exhaled.

"I plan to hold you the entire night and talk to you," Mingquan whispered against her lips. "What do you say?" He asked while stroking her hair.

Lin Jiao smiled at him. "I would love to be in your arms," she said. Her nervousness slowly died as Mingquan made her feel comfortable. "I love you," she said, gazing into his eyes.

"I love you, Lin Jiao," Mingquan said and again kissed her. She sat on the bed and kept her hands on his face while bent down. She slowly leaned down; her back landed on the soft mattress.

They withdrew again when Mingquan sat up. He removed shoes from Lin Jiao's feet and put them on the floor. He already had taken off his shoes and then leaned down to remove the head accessory from her head.

"Lin Jiao, you are my moon. Do you know why?" Mingquan asked her.

Lin Jiao shook her head.

"Because you express me. The things I'm unable to express, you do that for me," Mingquan said. "Thank you for giving me the privilege to be your husband," he said and planted a soft kiss on the middle of her forehead.

Feng Lao was sitting under the moonlight outside his room, on the patio. He was troubled with numerous thoughts when a hand on his shoulder grabbed his attention.

Feng Lao tilted his head to look and found Xu Zifan there.

"Why are you still awake?" Feng Lao asked.

"You have not slept either," Xu Zifan answered.

"Your wife must be awake," Feng Lao opined.

"Jingfei was tired. She is asleep," Xu Zifan pronounced. "What did Miaoran say? Is she alright?" He asked.

"Miaoran tried to run away. I scolded her," Feng Lao said. "Chen Xiao should not have to do this. He tried to malign her image for no reason. I will not spare him, Xu Zifan," he said with a fit of anger in his tone.

"I agree with you," Xu Zifan stated. "By the way, Li Hua asked me to do something for you," he said.

"What?" Feng Lao asked.

"She wants me to find a suitable match for you. She cannot see you living such a life," Xu Zifan stated.

"What does she mean?" Feng Lao softly chuckled.

"Feng Lao, we know you since our childhood times. You may say to everyone that you are doing all well, but you are not. You still miss everyone, yet you pretend that everything is fine," Xu Zifan said.

"I don't think I will be able to adjust with any woman," Feng Lao asserted. "I think there is no harm in living an alone life," he muttered.

"Don't you want to lean on someone in the times when no one can understand except her?" Xu Zifan questioned him.

Feng Lao turned silent. However, after a few minutes, he said, "Unless my heart and mind allow me to let have a woman in my life, I will not be able to do it. This is definitely not the right time, I believe. I will tell Li Hua not to worry about me anymore," Feng Lao said.

"As if she will hear you," Xu Zifan said and told Feng Lao to come to him whenever he had strange thoughts. "I will always be present there for you. Don't hesitate a bit. This is a request of a friend to you," he affirmed.
