Villain Lady - Chapter 346
– Yang Xian’s Residence –
The place was filled with festive atmosphere. Red decorated everything and there were some servants, who were actually Prince Ji Sheng’s servant busy distributing the meals and wine. Several people were dressed in bright colors and enjoyed the feast that was prepared. However, the main character, Yang Xian, was looking resentfully at the prince who was holding the wine glass.
“Your Highness, didn’t I tell you that I can’t drink too much?” Yang Xian asked with an annoyed tone.
Prince Ji Sheng laughed lightly. Right beside him, Gao Ling was holding onto his arm while drinking happily. She also had high alcohol tolerance which allowed her to drink more than what normal people could possibly drink.
“Today is the day of your marriage, how can I not drink?” Prince Ji Sheng reasoned.
Yang Xian got the urge to throw this prince out if not for the fact that he was the latter’s subordinate. He glanced to the side and noticed that Shi Yan was already sleeping with a wine glass in his hand. His sister and her fiancé was trying hard to wake him up.
The residence that Yang Xian had was not that big, but it was more than enough to fit all of them along with several other higher ranked soldiers. They were also trying to make Yang Xian drunk much to his annoyance. Unfortunately, he had to at least drink a sip for each toast he got.
‘It’s good that I switch the wine with water for mine.’
“Shan Yi, you haven’t toast with Yang Xian,” Prince Ji Sheng called out.
Shan Yi, who pretended to be a normal person to be able to attend this ceremony walked to their direction. Unlike his usual self who would wear casual clothing, he was wearing proper robe that would not make him looked like a bandit. In fact, he didn’t look much different from normal soldiers who attended the ceremony.
“Xian, let’s toast.”
“…You better prepare yourself.”
Seeing the dark smile on Yang Xian’s face, Shan Yi shuddered. He could guess that this black bellied strategist would have prepared some kind of retaliation for him. It seemed that he had to find a perfect excuse to stay away from Prince Ji Sheng’s City in the future or it wouldn’t end well for him.
Yang Xian was forced to drink a few more glass. His eyes started to stare unfocused when Prince Ji Sheng chose to let him go.
“The bride must have been waiting.”
“Don’t let her wait for long, Xian.”
“You’re all the one who held me back.” Yang Xian stood up as his body swayed to the side. His hand quickly held onto the table and he glared at Prince Ji Sheng. “Just you watch, I won’t let you off.”
Prince Ji Sheng looked at Yang Xian amusedly. In normal condition, Yang Xian would never provoke him openly in front of others. After all, they would usually act in accordance to their status to make sure no one could nitpick them.
“Come on, Xian.”
It took them some time before Yang Xian was sent away to the bridal chamber. Prince Ji Sheng and the others didn’t follow them, but some stayed not far from the door. Gao Ling looked at her husband and rolled her eyes. “Pervert.”
“I just want to know how he will perform,” Prince Ji Sheng replied.
“Shameless!” Gao Ling face turned red and she turned around, unwilling to be associated with this shameless prince. Even Yang Xian back then didn’t dare to peek on her and Prince Ji Sheng.
Shan Yi shook his head. “I need to pack up tonight, so I’ll leave first.”
“Yi, you’re going to help out moving some people tomorrow.”
“Your Highness, can’t you let me off this time?”
“Of course not.”
Hearing that, Shan Yi felt that his world collapsed. It seemed that he just had to enjoy himself thoroughly tonight because tomorrow, that black bellied strategist would surely take his revenge on them for forcing him to drink so much.
He walked in the direction of Shi Yan and chose to ignore the drunk merchant before focusing on the wine. Let him be drunk too so that Yang Xian would not punish him too much.
“Shan Yi! Stop drinking ah!”
“It’s fine Lu Wen, I have high alcohol tolerance.”
“You stink!”
Prince Ji Sheng was watching them and shook his head. His friends were really different from each other. He glanced into the room for the last time and smiled knowingly. While Yang Xian’s acting was good, it didn’t manage to fool him at all. Yang Xian had changed the wine with water with some underhanded method to prevent himself from getting drunk.
“Enjoy your night, Xian. Tomorrow you’re going to work again.”
“You don’t have to remind me,” Yang Xian’s voice was clear without any trace of drunkenness. “Also, make sure that you’re ready for overtime, Your Highness. There are a lot of work you need to do.”
Ah…
Prince Ji Sheng walked out with a light laugh. Only when he was with his friends and comrades he could relax and showed his true self.
Inside the room, Yang Xian sighed and looked at the bed decorated in red. In fact, the entire room was completely decorated in red color. A young girl was sitting there with the red veil covered her face.
“Sorry that I took so long, Ying’er. Sheng didn’t let me off until the end.”
After some time, Yang Xian had changed his way to call Wei Liuying to use endearment. At first, Wei Liuying was against it, but in the end, she just accepted it. As for herself, she was more used to call him with his name.
Wei Liuying chuckled. “It’s not long at all.”
“Let’s drink this first.”
Walking to the table, Yang Xian picked the nuptial cups. He handed one to Wei Liuying and the two of them crossed their hands against each other together before drinking the content. Afterwards, Yang Xian opened the veil.
Wei Liuying was dressed in red and wore makeup just for today. Of course, Gao Ling had to force her to sit down from dawn just to finish the preparation and completely tortured her body.
For a moment, Yang Xian couldn’t speak anything. Her face looked so beautiful and enchanting. No words in the world could ever describe what he felt right now. From now on, the two of them were husband and wife.
