Chapter 1628: Everything’s Fine
Hexi’s face was flushed. She smiled and pushed him away, “Nangong Yu, you’d better get out quickly. Otherwise, they will probably rush into the room.”
Sure enough, Zeng Shouyue’s angry voice sounded outside the door again, “Do you think you can just easily marry away our Miracle Healer Academy’s girl? Nangong Yu, you’d better come out quickly. I will make you drunk today.”
Nangong Yu had a look of reluctance and anger, with a hint of childish grievance.
Hexi pursed her lips, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, “Go quickly. I’ll wait for you to come back and tie the knot.”
Nangong Yu’s heart fluttered, the fiery pa.s.sion within him intensifying. Taking a few deep breaths, he smiled and gently tapped Hexi’s forehead, saying, “You naughty girl!”
Then, he turned around and left the bridal chamber.
…
Just after midnight, the Old Lady Nangong, still dressed in her extravagant attire, slowly made her way toward the bridal chamber. She was accompanied by two ordinary-looking mammies.
Guarding the entrance to the bridal chamber were Qing Luan and Wu Nian, as well as the two guards Hexi brought from Sealed Dragon Domain, Xi Jia and Xi Yi.
Seeing Old Lady Nangong, Wu Nian and Qing Luan both showed respectful expressions, “Greetings, Old Lady Nangong.”
Seeing her walking to the bridal chamber, Qing Luan couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Old Lady Nangong, what can I do for you?”
Qing Luan was a little surprised but had no doubts.
Old Lady Nangong had always been kind to the master. Even when she thought that the Miss was a man, she never opposed the marriage. There was no reason for Qing Luan to doubt the old lady.
However, Xi Jia was baffled. Why did the heirloom have to be given to the young miss on the wedding night? Couldn’t it be given during the tea ceremony the next day?
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Old Lady Nangong continue, “In our Nangong Family, when a newcomer enters, they have to pay respects to our ancestors the next day. If Yu’s bride doesn’t wear this jewelry during the ceremony, I’m afraid the others might have some thoughts or reservations.”
Old Lady Nangong said so. Although Xi Jia was suspicious, she didn’t say anything.
The door of the bridal chamber was slowly opened. After the three people entered, it slowly closed again.
Xi Jia frowned and glanced in the direction of the bridal chamber from time to time.
After 15 minutes, Old Lady Nangong walked out of the bridal chamber with a relieved smile on her face. Following behind her were the same two inconspicuous mammies.
After instructing the two to take good care of Nangong Yu and Xi Yue, Old Lady Nangong gracefully took her leave.
“I’m fine. What happened?”
Peering through the crack, under the soft glow of the firelight, sat a woman dressed in bridal attire. The Phoenix Crown was still on her head, and the beaded veil hung down, concealing her face. However, one could vaguely see the stunning beauty beneath it.
Seeing Xi Yue sitting there unharmed, Xi Jia breathed a sigh of relief, chiding himself for being overly suspicious. If the people of the King of h.e.l.l Mansion trusted Old Lady Nangong, then it naturally meant she was trustworthy.
