  Shangguan Ning woke up before dawn the following day.

  Seeing that Jing Yichen was still asleep, she didn’t wake him up and tiptoed off the bed.

  She had wanted to visit the bathroom, but when she passed the wedding gown hung in the bedroom, she couldn’t help but cease her steps and caress the gown that symbolized her identity as the bride.

  The wedding gown was undoubtedly extremely beautiful and resplendent. It would make every woman look radiant.

  Jing Yichen opened his eyes and saw his wife looking at the wedding gown once again. He shook his head helplessly. Getting up, he carried her back to the bed.

  “Oh, you are awake? Did I wake you up?”


  “Yes, I had a dream about you staring at the wedding gown so carefully that even I was ignored. So I woke up.”


  Shangguan Ning chuckled in embarrassment and said in a sweet voice, “I like it so much that I wanted to hold it in my arms and sleep. But I didn’t want to spoil it, so I had to hold you, instead.”


  “So now I have been demoted? I am so sad that a wedding gown can put me in shadow.”


  Jing Yichen’s voice was low and hoarse, sexy beyond description.

  “You just can’t wait to put it on, can you?”


  Shangguan Ning nodded and then shook her head in laughter. “It is not about wearing it. I want to look at it because then I will know that I am marrying you and that makes me happy.”


  They talked for a while before getting off the bed.

  It was their wedding day and there were many things to do.

  Breakfast was delivered to their room. Fearing that Shangguan Ning would be starving, Jing Yichen forced her to take in some more food.

  When Shangguan Ning was eating breakfast, the makeup artist, stylist and the dresser were all waiting outside. They entered the room and helped her with the hair and makeup after she finished the food.

  Soon, her two bridesmaids, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun also came there. They had no idea of what happened the day before, so they came and greeted Shangguan Ning, happily.

  Although Shangguan Ning still had some lingering fear about the previous night’s events, seeing Zhao Anan laughing loudly and cheerfully in the room, she let the incident slip out of her mind. Instead, she started to get prepared to become the most beautiful bride.

  As Zhao Anan turned her head, she noticed Jing Yichen sitting on the sofa motionlessly and gazing at Shangguan Ning. She burst into laughter and said, “Cousin, what are you staring at Ning for? You are the groom and you need to receive those guests outside. Ning won’t disappear. Can’t you just give her some space? So annoying that you are showing off your love in public.”


  She, of course, did not know that Shangguan Ning had disappeared the previous day and that Jing Yichen intended to be with her through the next 24 hours.

  Although Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun were both dead, Yang Muyan was still alive and Jing Yiran didn’t seem to be giving up, either. What if they caused any more incidents to harm Shangguan Ning? Jing Yichen suspected that he would kill Jing Yiran this time, if something like that happened.

  Luckily, Lu would arrive in the UK today and with her next to Shangguan Ning, he would be assured.

  Jing Yichen turned deaf ears to Zhao Anan’s words and continued to be seated on the sofa, watching the stylist do Ning’s hair. A touch of joy flitted across his heart.

  Shangguan Ning, however, felt a bit shy. She turned to him and said, “Yichen, you can leave now. There are so many people here, don’t worry.”


  Jing Yichen knew what Shangguan Ning meant.

  But he still refused to move. He didn’t need to worry about what was happening outside. Jing Zhongxiu and Tiger were both there to deal with everything.

  The only thing he needed to do was to greet the masters or heirs of each family. That was the only fundamental etiquette.

  But Jing Zhongxiu had not sent anyone to summon him, so the time had not yet arrived.

  Shangguan Ning stopped trying to convince him any more when she found him being stubborn. Instead, she turned to talk with Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun.

  The two girls went to get changed in the room next door.

  Shangguan Ning had chosen the dress for them eventually.

  It was an A-line dress made with thin chiffon in light purple color, dreamy and beautiful.

  But Zhao Anan didn’t find it comfortable. She couldn’t even walk properly in it. Zheng Lun, however, fitted the dress perfectly. She looked simply like a fairy, innocent and pure.

  Zhao Anan threw a look at Zheng Lun and then at herself as she clapped her forehead and moaned, “How can there be such a huge difference between two girls with the same dress? I don’t want to wear dresses, it feels weird!”


  Shangguan Ning burst into laughter. “It is alright! You look beautiful in the dress. You have worn enough dresses before. Today’s dress is more comfortable than any of those, no?”


  Zhao Anan got very annoyed when she was reminded of this matter.

  At that time, Mu Qing kept her under the effect of needles so that she could not move or run away. Then he had started to toy around with her by forcing her to wear dresses and high heels to make her look sexy and charming. That had annoyed her a great deal!

  But it was Shangguan Ning’s special day today and she was also her best friend. So she had to bear it.

  Seeing her face flush, Zheng Lun consoled her with a smile. “Anan, I think you look very pretty in the dress.”


  She wore dresses on all possible occasions. There was not a single pair of pants in her wardrobe.

  Also, she found that Zhao Anan looked more feminine in this way.

  Most of the pants Zhao Anan wore were in a neutral style. With her short hair and a careless personality, she was no different from a handsome boy at the first glance.

  Had it not been for her plump breasts, many people would have thought of her as a boy, anyways.

  “Yes, I look like a pretty girl.” Zhao Anan wobbled to the chair and sat down as she shrugged. “But the point is, I am not a girl. I am a tomboy!”
