Unmarried wife and children
"Can't you change your request? Asking a seven-foot-tall man like me to embroider flowers! This is simply too absurd!"
Yun Qianye's face changed colors from red to white to green to purple, and then she grasped the fine embroidery needle in her hand and shouted angrily.
"If you're unwilling, then this young master will take his leave! Isn't it just embroidery? You can't even accomplish such a small task, yet you still want to buy something from me, this is truly absurd!"
A soft and gentle woman's voice, soothing and lingering, with a hint of playful freshness.
Just by listening to her voice, one can guess that the woman behind the golden snow-like curtains must be as gentle and warm as her voice, full of elegant and refined charm.
"You——"
Yun Qianye's anger was burning like a fire as he pointed at the woman behind the curtain, but she was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
"Sir, our Dream Weaving Workshop is only open to those who are destined to be here. All transactions are based on mutual consent. You may leave now!"
Ruan Qincheng couldn't help but smile as she pulled the corner of her mouth, rarely seeing Yun Qiye look so embarrassed. Looking at him holding the embroidery needle was actually quite interesting!
However, she knew that Yun Qianye's extreme male chauvinism would make him feel like he was trampling on his long-held beliefs if he were to do needlework.
He is absolutely impossible to do!
Lan Mingxuan was also somewhat stunned, not expecting the owner of Weaving Dreams Workshop to make such a request! He too wanted to see what kind of embroidery Wang Yunqian would create, what would it be like?
"Good! I'll embroider!"
Yun Qianye looked deeply at Ruan Xinzhen, as if to prove his determination, grasped the needle and thread with a death-defying grip, and said in a decisive tone.
"Haha, then please do!"
The host of Weaving Dreams Workshop smiled lightly and her eyes looked through the gauze curtain towards Yun Qianye.
Ruan Qincheng's eyes were filled with incredulity, as if she had been greatly disillusioned. She really hadn't expected that someone as proud as him would actually put aside his stubborn and arrogant personality, using the hands that commanded the three armies and held the power of life and death to embroider flowers.
Lan Mingxuan's originally indifferent and apathetic expression changed to a serious one when he saw Yun Qianye pick up the embroidery needle and thread. Looks like this guy is serious! He must raise his guard and absolutely cannot let him succeed in his sinister plans!
"Girl, standing for too long is tiring, come sit down and rest for a while! If there's some snack to go with it, that'd be even better! What does girl want to eat?"
“……”
Yun Qianye looked at Lan Mingxuan pulling Ruan Qincheng, who was ready to watch the play with a serious expression, and felt an urge to vomit blood. Lan Mingxuan, you're absolutely ruthless! It's simply infuriating!
How did he not discover earlier that this seemingly dignified guy had the ability to kill without spilling blood?
"Suit yourself!"
Ruan Qincheng sat in a chair beside him, her eyes shining like moonlight, casting a faint glance at Yun Qianni.
It was the first time I saw him so serious, the light passing through the fluttering gauze, bringing a touch of mystery and radiance, slowly falling on his cold face. A head of ink-colored hair, half tied up high with a golden crown, the other half flowing freely down.
Distinctive contours filled with wild domineering aura, at this moment in the light, those cold lines softened a bit. Healthy wheat-colored skin, tempered by wind and rain.
A majestic purple robe with golden python patterns embroidered on the edges, exuding a brilliant and noble aura. As he raised his arm, the sleeve slid down along his wrist, revealing a gemstone cuff.
Swipe
Yun Qianye's hands moved with the embroidery needle, his agile fingers dancing across the fabric in front of him. Probably only he could make the act of embroidering look so domineering!
Ruan Qincheng intently watched his movements, and couldn't help but recall the day he treated her poisoning with acupuncture, his needlework swift, decisive and accurate.
Lan Mingxuan leaned on one hand, his eyes gazing through the white gauze of his hat at Yun Qianye. At the same time, he didn't forget to instruct Zhuo Yan, who had flown back to his side, to buy some watermelon from Yu Jin City.
"Looks like you still have some skills!"
A voice came from behind the silk curtain, carrying a hint of surprise and admiration.
Ruan Qinchendings gaze fell on the fabric in front of Yun Qianni, and he was shocked to see that it had been embroidered with a pattern identical to the one on the bottom plate beside it. In such a short time, he had actually finished embroidering such a complex pattern, and it was indeed a gift for embroidery.
Lan Mingxuan saw her shocked expression, and a sense of crisis suddenly rose in his heart. The little girl shouldn't have been moved by this soft attack, right?
"What a pity he didn't become a woman!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and sighed.
"Hmmph!"
Lan Mingxuan heard her words and splashed beautifully. Okay, he admitted that he was worried about being white! However, as long as it was something related to her, he admitted that he would be like an ordinary person, worrying, nervous, afraid, and having all kinds of emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
If Xiao Yu was so easily moved, then she wouldn't be the Xiao Yu he knew!
The young girl he knew was sentimental and righteous, dedicated and loving, lovely and shy, mischievous and dark-bellied.
Once she has made up her mind about someone, she will never change it!
Your heart remains unchanged, your zither's heart does not regret.
"Puff puff——"
Luoyan grabbed a basket of clean fresh fruit and came back, Lan Mingxuan picked out a decent-looking fruit and handed it to Ruan Qincheng.
Two people sat down and leisurely started eating fruit, this carefree skill made Yun Qianye feel ashamed.
"Actually, I wanted to tell you that as long as you finish embroidering the leaf on the other side, it would be enough! However, I didn't expect you to work so quickly and finish the entire peony and peacock embroidery!"
The voice of Zhuang Meng Fang's owner is warm and elegant.
"Ding Dong!"
A tinkling sound of gold and silver, accompanied by the rustling of silk curtains, heralded the arrival of a woman. With slender hands, she lifted the golden silk curtain, revealing her elegant figure, which slowly emerged before the crowd.
Ruan Qincheng raised her eyes to size up the woman in front of her, and saw that her face was adorned with a colorful veil, revealing a pair of enchanting phoenix eyes that seemed to capture one's soul. The pupils were like vines entwined, shining with a seductive icy blue color. In the middle of her eyebrows, golden mandalas spiralled outwards, while the corners of her eyes glowed with a bewitching red that gradually turned into a dreamy pink, creating an eerie beauty.
Grey-blue long hair, loosely coiled into a cloud bun. The cloud bun is adorned with three branches of hollow gold hairpins, and underneath is a row of dark red agate beads woven into a tassel. A large pink peony flower is pinned to the side of her head. She wears a low-cut, dark red velvet cheongsam dress with golden trim, embroidered with golden threads, and a red sash around her waist. Over this, she wears a sea-blue silk cloak, intricately embroidered with cloud patterns.
A golden red bangle on her wrist gave out a crisp jingling sound.
"The blue lotus brocade is yours, young master! Considering you've finished embroidering the peacock and peony picture, I won't charge you the 100 gold coins labor fee!"
The owner of Weaving Dreams held a complete piece of Qinglian brocade in his hands and walked to the front of Yun Qianye.
The embroidery in her hand, although similar in color to the ones displayed outside, is more exquisite. Every stitch and every thread exudes a kind of delicacy. It can be said that it is the best among the best.
Lan Mingxuan looked at the celadon brocade in her hand, feeling a little familiar. The texture of this brocade looks very special, he seemed to have seen it somewhere!
Yun Qianye handed over the Qinglian brocade, a hint of joy floating in her eyes, and presented it to Ruan Qincheng. I don't know if she will accept it or not?
"Thank you, Your Majesty War King! This is your hard work fee!"
Lan Mingxuan quickly took over the Qinglian brocade from Ruan Qincheng, not forgetting to find a copper coin and put it in his hand. Looking through the bamboo hat, he couldn't see what expression was on that immortal face of his.
"Girl, I've sent you off! And it cost me a pretty penny to buy you out!"
Ruan Qincheng couldn't help but glance at him with a smile, and it was impressive that he could come up with such a hurtful remark.
Yun Qianye looked at the copper coin in his hand, his forehead bulging with rage, his tightly clenched fist itching to give this scoundrel a good thrashing. However, he remembered that "The Art of Picking Up Girls" said that women disliked men with violent tendencies, so he had to maintain his gentle and elegant demeanor in order to win the heart of a beauty.
"That's really expensive!"
Yun Qianye gritted his teeth and said, his heart was so angry that he wanted to die, but when he saw Ruan Qindeng put away the Qinglian brocade, he still felt a little joy. At least she didn't abandon the things he had worked hard to get, even if it was through Lan Mingxuan's hands, he felt unspeakable happiness.
One day, he would also be moved by every nerve for a woman!
All he needs is just a little bit of her treasuring him and he will feel so fulfilled.
If someone had told him this before, he would have sneered at the idea that a man could go crazy for a woman. Some things can't be understood without experiencing them personally.
Love is an unreasonable thing, with a magical power that can overthrow everything.
"Girl, don't you need to order a dress? What's the fabric for?"
Lan Mingxuan saw Ruan Qincheng put away the Qinglian brocade and asked with some confusion.
"Let's not bother, after all we don't have much time to linger here, let this fabric be for now! No rush!"
Ruan Qincheng remembered the appointment with Yun Qianni in ten days, and the idea of staying here was dispelled. From Yu Jin City to the border of the two countries, although the time is not short, there will definitely be many checkpoints on the road, and it won't be smooth sailing.
"Three slow walks!"
The owner of Weaving Dreams Workshop saw them about to leave and said faintly.
"Hmm..."
A gust of wind blew into the house, and the mosquito net flew up. The bamboo hat on Lan Mingxuan's head also flew up in the wind. Yu Jin City often had strong winds, so Lan Mingxuan wasn't surprised. He simply turned his head, bent down, and picked up the fallen hat from the ground.
When he lifted his head, he saw the elegant and noble owner of Weaving Dreams Workshop in front of him, with tears in her eyes, gazing at him excitedly.
"Xuan gege! Are you Xuan gege?"
The Dream Workshop owner's trembling excited voice successfully stopped Ruan Qindeng and Yun Qiuye's footsteps.
"Who are you?"
Lan Mingxuan's voice was unusually cold and detached, making people feel a chill when they heard it. When facing others, he never had any tenderness in him.
"Xuan Gege, I'm Yan Luo! Meng Yan Luo! Have you forgotten me?"
Meng Yan looked at Lan Mingxuan with a pitiful expression, and when she heard his indifferent voice like that of a stranger, she couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
Her brother Xuan has forgotten her!
She thought day and night about growing up quickly so she could marry Xuan Gege who was like a heavenly god.
Mother said that as long as she grew up, Brother Xuan would marry her.
But after she grew up, Xuan Ge never came to see her again.
She sneaked into the mortal world just to find Xuan Gege, but unfortunately, in this vast sea of people, she didn't know where to look for him and could only temporarily reside in Ruijin City.
"Who would have thought that even the National Preceptor had a romantic debt!"
Yun Qianye said with a smile of good fortune and bad luck, his hands clasped together, the corners of his mouth raised high. This retribution has come quickly, now let's see how this dignified guy will get out of this situation!
Ruan Qincheng's gaze swept over Meng Yiluo and Lan Mingxuan with a calmness like clear wind, and in his dark eyes, a deep and profound light shone through.
Lotus Lian poked her head out of her bosom and saw Meng Yiluo, she couldn't help but feel a little flustered. How did this woman find her way to the mortal world! She's really a lingering ghost!
Lian Yu stopped on Lan Ming Xuan's shoulder, looking at Meng Yan Luo, and suddenly felt a dark cloud pressing down. This is terrible! If the young lady of the Meng family were to confront her mistress head-on, it would be disastrous! How could their master explain things clearly then?
"Ribbon!"
Lan Mingxuan's expressionless face swept a glance at Meng Yiluo, his gaze cold enough to make one's heart skip a beat. Meng Yiluo, the youngest daughter of the Meng family, the jointly appointed Demon Queen by the Demon Temple elders, a pure yin spirit girl born in the year, month, day and hour of yin. He had only seen her once when she was young, never expecting that she would grow up to be so big now!
"Xuan Gege, you still remember me, right? Lian Luo knows that Xuan Gege must remember me!"
Meng Yanluo looked at Lan Mingxuan with a shy and timid gaze, Brother Xuan was still the same as before, his divine face made her blush and her heart skip a beat.
"Mingxuan, won't you introduce us?"
Ruan Qin's lotus steps moved lightly, her green lotus long gown dancing in the night wind, solitary and unrestrained. One stroke, one stroke, extremely enchanting. The black silk that reached her ankles half covered the silver butterfly-shaped facial ornament, a faint smile on her lips, exuding the splendor of a prosperous era.
"You must be Xuan Gege's friends, I'm really sorry about earlier. If I had known you were Xuan Gege's friends, Yan Luo wouldn't have made any requests!"
Meng Yanluo took off her veil, revealing a delicate face with a complexion as white as jade. Her small cherry lips accompanied her charming features, giving people an extraordinary sense of temptation. I suppose there are hardly any men in the world who can resist such temptation!
"I forgot to introduce myself, I am Meng Yanluo, Xuan Gege's fiancée!"
"There is no fiancée, I have already asked the elders to cancel this absurd marriage. There is nothing between us."
Lan Ming Xuan's voice was cold and detached, with a hint of anger rising. His marriage was not something that anyone could influence, if the elders of the Demon Temple had any objections, then they would have no need to exist!
"Xuan Gege, what did you say? You must be joking with Yan Luo, right?"
Meng Yanluo's face, originally flushed with excitement, suddenly turned pale. She couldn't believe that Xuan Gege wouldn't marry her, Mother had said so herself, Xuan Gege could only marry her. Because only her body could grant Xuan Gege unparalleled magical powers, helping him rise to greatness! In this world, only she was worthy of Xuan Gege!
The position of Demon Queen, no one can take it away!
Anyone who dares to rob her will never be spared!
"I don't want to repeat myself for the second time! You're on your own!"
Lan Mingxuan pulled Ruan Qincheng out of her daze and walked towards the outside. What if his demon queen was just an ordinary mortal?
He doesn't need her to sacrifice anything for him, he just needs to love and pamper her wholeheartedly!
Meng Yanluo was probably unaware that if she were to marry him, it would only be as a sacrificial offering. In the past, before meeting Ya Tou, he didn't care who the Demon Queen chose.
But now it's different, he wants nothing but Yatou for this life.
"Xuan Gege, you will definitely regret this!"
Meng Yanluo gazed at their receding figures, and her fingernails suddenly grew out rapidly.
"Whoosh——"
The silk curtains hanging on all sides suddenly turned into pieces of torn fabric and fell to the ground.
Yun Qianye had just thought of catching up with them when he received a secret report from the military. He looked at Ruan Xincheng helplessly, and his figure disappeared into the night along with the Bloodclothes. Only a patch of yellow sand remained, settling the gentle quietness of the night.
Ruan Qincheng and Lan Mingxuan walked along a quiet path, the moonlight in the sky seeping through the gaps of the intertwined grapevines.
"Xuan Gege——"
Ruan Qincen learned Meng Yiluo's tone and called out with deep affection.
"Wow, so sour! Girl, did you eat vinegar?"
Lan Mingxuan helplessly and indulgently pinched her small nose, a smile spreading to the corners of his lips. The way she was acting jealous was so cute!
"Hmph, I'm just eating vinegar, what's it to you? Got a problem with that?"
Ruan Qincheng leaned against the grape trellis, her eyes fixed intently on Lan Mingxuan's azure eyes, as if trying to see through his soul.
"Yātóu is willing to eat vinegar, I'm delighted and haven't had time to react, how could there be any opinion?"
Lan Mingxuan was looked at by her with a hint of embarrassment, his low and husky voice, softer than the night.
"What? You're happy I'm eating vinegar?"
Ruan Qinchun said with a clenched fist and rubbing his palms together, exuding an aura of murder, with a hint of gunpowder.
"Cough cough, girl, I was wrong! You're jealous, and it's really upsetting me! I'll never dare to do it again!"
Lan Mingxuan hastily shook his head and waved his hands, indicating that he was innocent.
"Hum! And then? How many more fiancées do you have?"
Ruan Qincheng raised an eyebrow, her cherry blossom-like red lips took on a silvery glow in the moonlight. Her red lips slightly pouted, looking adorable to the extreme.
"Silly girl, of course, my wife can only be you! Let me tell you, I'm going to marry you! You can't escape!"
Lan Mingxuan stretched out his long and powerful arms, tightly embracing Ruan Qincheng in his bosom, his gentle blue eyes gazing at her like the sea.
He bent down, his silver hair falling down. His plump lips took her pouting red lips in an instant, and the warm, smooth feeling made him sink into it.
He gently bit her red lips, and in the moment of her surprise, his agile tongue skillfully pried open her teeth and entered her mouth, the fiery tip of his tongue inviting her to a passionate dance.
Emerald green grapevines cascaded down around them like a silk curtain.
A faintly wandering ray of light, like jade, fell on them, and a misty halo rose. The scene of the two kissing was so beautiful that it took one's breath away.
