Chapter 14: The Crimson Wedding Dress in the New Room

  Such luxurious extravagance is something I've never seen before, yet it's also something that fills me with dread. At this moment, a clear and loud voice tells me that I'm about to be sent into the Song family.

  Looking at her own phoenix coronet and flowing cloak, she merely felt dazzled by them.

  I tore off my red headscarf and walked over to the nearby copper mirror, only to discover that I had already been heavily made up.

  Everything came too suddenly, and it was ridiculously sudden that I was dressed in a wedding dress so easily. I frantically wiped off the makeup on my face, but found that everything was in vain. I supported my chest, gasping for cold air.

  I won't get excited, I won't get angry, and I definitely won't let them have their way!

  What should I do? Jump out the window? Yes, keep jumping out the window. That day wasn't I jumping out the window when I met Yiqian Xun? I pounced on the windowsill like a wounded beast, but couldn't open it again. The window was covered with red paper cutouts, and poking through that layer of paper revealed a tightly nailed window frame.

  Looking at my phoenix coronet, I ruthlessly tore it off. The fine silk tassels under the hammer were imprinted with candlelight flashing out tiny shadows, which was beautiful, but those lights and shadows could not be connected, just like my life would never be perfect forever.

  I am not reconciled.

  Just as I was racking my brains for a plan, the door creaked open. A beautiful figure slipped in quietly and closed the door behind her. It was none other than my lovely sister Su Yu. She had also dressed up specially today, looking enchanting and alluring, with beauty beyond measure.

  Compared with this, I, as a bride, am also nothing special.

  "Sister, let me out quickly." I rushed up and grasped Su Yu's hand, making a pitiful face.

  Su Yu looked around and anxiously said to me: "Su Er, you must marry him, the Song family's people are already at the door."

  My heart sank slowly, tears streaming down: "Save me, sister, let me out, I don't want to marry, I don't want to marry..."

  Su Yu supported me, who was wandering and helpless, with tears in her eyes that seemed to be more turbulent than mine. She said firmly: "No way!" Seeing that her voice startled me, she sighed again and said softly: "Now the people of the Song family are all outside, if you leave, our family will be finished."
