Chapter 702: Chapter 704
Wang Xiangxiang could no longer pretend upon hearing how Chu Lian had so patiently restrained himself for her sake.
For the sake of their being together, he, the Eldest Young Master so high above all else, was willing to humble himself so deeply. If she were to continue to push him away coldly, she dared not imagine what would become of him.
By now, she was already crying her heart out, wanting to respond to him, to warm his heart at this moment.
Tell him that she loved him, deeply, dearly; she couldn’t be without him.
She reached out and pried his fingers open one by one.
Seeing Wang Xiangxiang still pushing him away, Chu Lian felt his heart plunge into the abyss. Was he unable to retain her affection even after all this?
His arms fell limply to his sides as he stood there in defeat, as if his soul had been lost, feeling disappointment, helplessness, agony!
At that moment, he saw her turn around suddenly, throwing herself into his embrace. She sobbed uncontrollably, crying as she spoke, "Wuu wuu, how can you be so foolish? How can you be so good? How can you? I don’t deserve you doing all this for me, really don’t know... I’m bad, very bad."
Such a reaction made Chu Lian ecstatically surprised. He raised his drooping hands, patting her head as though comforting a child, "You do deserve it. For you, I would gladly climb mountains or plunge into raging seas."
These words deeply moved Wang Xiangxiang, who felt his strong and forceful heartbeat and wept even more, "I won’t let you climb mountains or plunge into seas; you mustn’t do such dangerous things, you mustn’t."
"Alright, I won’t, whatever you say, as long as you stay by my side, whatever you say is fine."
The two immersed themselves in their mutual love, with both of their hearts filled with sweetness, so very sweet!
After a long while, the two finally let go of each other. Chu Lian used his hands to wipe away Wang Xiangxiang’s tears, coaxing her, "Stop crying, today is our day of great joy, you should smile, you know? You look the most beautiful when you smile."
"Yes, I won’t cry anymore, I’ll smile." Wang Xiangxiang halted her tears, she couldn’t cry anymore, not just for the sake of the child within her. A smile broke through her tear-stained face.
Seeing Wang Xiangxiang had stopped crying, Chu Lian looked into her eyes and asked earnestly, "Then now we..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes widened in shock. What were they about to do?
Suddenly frightened by a thought, she lowered her head, her face blushing, "No..."
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Chu Lian walk over to the table, then with two cups filled with wine in his hands, he handed her one, "Let us drink the wedding wine. You’re pregnant now, so just a symbolic sip is enough."
In an instant, Wang Xiangxiang’s face turned beet red. What had she been thinking just now? She took the wine cup, and they completed the sacred ceremony.
Chu Lian took the wine cup from Wang Xiangxiang’s hand and placed it on the table. Looking at her under the light of the candles, she indeed looked beautiful.
He moved closer slowly until he was standing in front of her, his head gradually lowering.
In this moment, how could Wang Xiangxiang not understand Chu Lian’s intentions? She closed her eyes slowly.
The two savored their mutual feelings and the intense love they had for each other.
"Gurgle."
Suddenly, a gurgling sound interrupted them, but they did not open their eyes.
"Gurgle, gurgle."
But the continuous gurgling sounds forced them to pull away from each other.
There stood Wang Xiangxiang, embarrassingly shy. She lowered her head, not daring to look at him. Her stomach chose this beautiful moment to betray her with such noises, and she felt incredibly embarrassed.
