Chapter 327 He collapsed onto the soft couch.
Chapter 327 He collapsed onto the soft couch.
When Madam Xie saw her like this, she immediately felt disgusted.
Here we go again! Every time you get angry, you act so petty!
But since it concerned a major life event like marriage, Madam Xie still patiently offered a few words of advice.
“Wan Ning, a proper marriage is more reliable than anything else. As a girl, it’s important that you can live a peaceful life after marriage. Those with high positions and bad tempers may not really love you.”
Xie Wanning pursed her lips and fell silent, but she clearly didn't quite agree.
Qin Jiuwei glanced at her, not wanting to say another word.
Don't want to get married? You'd better not get married.
The He family also escaped a calamity.
Having finished speaking, Qin Jiuwei's mission was considered complete. She immediately stood up, bowed, and left.
As night deepened, when I returned to Qinglan Courtyard, it was already quiet.
Once inside, the maidservant helped her take off her outer garment.
Turning around the screen, one could see Xie Yanli leaning against a soft couch, holding a book in his hands and reading it.
He had already finished washing and grooming; his long, flowing hair was as smooth as ink, with a few strands falling over his shoulders, casual yet exuding a touch of arrogance.
In the candlelight, his features were clearly defined, his eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, and he exuded an innate nobility.
She wore a light-colored, slightly loose-fitting inner garment with the collar slightly open, revealing a small patch of skin and collarbone. The lines were clear and smooth, exuding a touch of unintentional languor.
Hearing footsteps, he looked up, his dark pupils flashing in the candlelight, like a deep, calm pool.
He raised his hand to close the book. "Have you told Grandmother about this?"
"I'm done talking." Qin Jiuwei walked to the soft couch and sat down. "Grandmother is very satisfied with this marriage, but Third Sister doesn't seem to be willing."
Xie Yanli chuckled upon hearing this, "It would be strange if she agreed."
He believed he knew his younger sister quite well.
Their lives are as high as the heavens.
She naturally looked down on families like the He family.
Qin Jiuwei didn't say anything more. If Madam He hadn't approached her about this matter, she wouldn't have wanted to pay any more attention to it.
But when it came to marriage, Qin Jiuwei couldn't help but recall the scene when she married Xie Yanli.
Do you remember how we drank the nuptial wine?
Qin Jiuwei reached out and patted Xie Yanli, looking into his eyes and smiling.
“You looked like that back then…” She raised her hand and gestured to Xie Yanli’s face.
"Just like that, his eyebrows didn't move at all, his eyes were half-closed, and his mouth was tightly clenched, like a piece of wood."
Xie Yanli quietly looked at Qin Jiuwei and saw that her eyes were curved and her lips were slightly smiling.
My heart suddenly softened.
He didn't speak, he just stared at her intently.
The candlelight danced on her face, the flickering light softening her features and adding an indescribable gentle and moving quality.
For some reason, the scene of their wedding night also appeared in his mind.
The red candles inside the room were burning brightly that day, making the entire room almost blindingly bright.
On the wedding bed, Qin Jiuwei sat upright, with a spotless red quilt spread out behind her.
She wore a bright red wedding dress with golden phoenixes embroidered on the sleeves, and the skirt was layered like clouds, so bright in the candlelight that it seemed to be burning.
When the veil was lifted, the gold hairpin on her head made a crisp sound with her slight movements.
As Xie Yanli pondered this, a strange feeling suddenly flashed through his mind.
No, how could he remember it so clearly?
Qin Jiuwei was smiling when she suddenly noticed that Xie Yanli was lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about?" She leaned her hand on the soft couch and moved her body slightly closer to him.
Xie Yanli snapped out of his reverie, looked up, and his gaze fell on her face.
He stared at her intently, a dark glint in his eyes.
It was like a sudden surge of waves somewhere deep in the ocean.
Qin Jiu chuckled softly, but before she could speak, he grabbed her wrist.
Then, with a gentle pull, she fell onto the soft couch.
"You..." Her cheeks flushed, but before she could speak, Xie Yanli had already leaned down and pressed down on her.
His arm was propped up beside her, his gaze lowered, and the darkness in his eyes grew even deeper.
"I have not……"
She had just opened her mouth when he forcefully shut her up.
His lips lightly covered hers, without the slightest hesitation, and without giving her a chance to react.
When the warm touch came, she froze for a moment, even forgetting to breathe.
From the moment the two began to speak, the maids in the room very skillfully withdrew.
got used to……
If we don't leave now, it will be too late!
Xie Yanli stared intently at Qin Jiuwei, the darkness in his eyes gradually swallowing up the last trace of indifference.
He lowered his head and captured her lips once more, with greater focus and force than before.
Qin Jiuwei felt his hand slowly climb up her waist, pulling her closer into his arms.
"Husband..." she finally whispered.
Xie Yanli paused for a moment, then kissed her neck with even more affection.
His breath was hot, urgent, and possessive.
His hand slid down to her shoulder and gently caressed it.
He used his fingers to pull open her outer robe with a little force.
