Taming Tyrants I

Arc 3: Prince Daddy (82)

Ying Wenxiang cleared his throat and removed her embrace. He faced her with his expression colder than before. "Princess, this is not something funny. We are both in a dilemma right now." Hong Cha still acted oblivious. She knew he worried for the consequences of their accident but she cant help making him worry more.

"Humph! Why don't we just marry? You have no wife, I have no husband. We are both free right now. All I have to do is cancel the engagement. And, hey, you didn't even show up to check on me yesterday." Hong Cha pursed her lips. She returned her flirtatiousness and placed her hand on his chest while slightly pressing her index finger to trace shapes. "Ying Wenxiang, say, can you stay a widower forever? Yes we have an age gap of nine years and you are afraid to love again but can you give it a try with me? However, not as your late wife but your new wife."

"We cant." Ying Wenxiang held her wrist to make her stop. "From now on, we will not see each other again. Take what happened as a dream and what is real is you being Xiao Huai's princess consort. This is the last time we get to meet privately. I am sorry Your Highness but I do not wish to continue this."

"What, what do you mean?" she frowned. Ying Wenxiang looked away. From that moment on, she knew he is really serious. "Fine! If you want it like this then I will treat what we have as a nightmare rather than a dream! You are so heartless! You are not a deity at all like they said!"

Ying Wenxiang took her insult silently. She left in fury as he remained standing on his place, seeing her figure disappearing unsteadily. His flickering red eyes became black and his hand reached out for her.

"Xiao Cha..." his tone became different. The same voice that had tormented Lou Fencha.

The wedding is in two days time. Empress Ling of Ji came but the king of Ji didn't come. With the wedding this close, Hong Cha's day became even busier. She have to check her wedding dress with Empress Ling and Mi Yan. Empress Ling wasn't satisfied and kept asking for it to be changed. The catered foods, they tried to taste Qin's best cuisines while Empress Xin and Ying Huai have to try Ji's. It was a hectic day.

A day before the wedding, Hong Cha have to try out the bridal dresses that Empress Ling picked. And for the final night, early before dusk, Empress Ling gave her a book for her to study. Her face went beet red when she received an adult book portraying many positions. She tossed it behind her pillow and slept early. Tomorrow, she will get married to the male lead which never happened to Mi Cha's life.

Everything is ready. Red fabrics hanged in every corner of Qin. It was like a feist or the lively New Year. Hong Cha sat silently inside the bridal sedan. She had expected she will experience a marriage during her transmigrations but this is just a bit of sacrifice on her part. Besides, she can stay loyal to Ying Huai since she had officially ended her affair with Ying Wenxiang. Things are going her way, except that she noticed the female lead being annoyed at her for no reason.

[Host, Second Master Gu is ready. He is only waiting for Host's confirmation.]

"Are you sure he can last until tonight?" she nervously asked. It will be a big disaster if Ying Huai get to know his bride was...ehem!

[Yes Host. I offered Second Master Gu's system an assistance for keeping the male lead unconscious until the next 24 hours. However, since I lend a hand, Mi Cha is a bit unguarded. There is a 50% chance she can break the restraint.]

Before she can speak, the sedan stopped and she heard the matchmaker speaking loudly. The sedan's door was opened as Ying Huai reached his hand for her. He donned in a red silk robe completely framing his slim body with the golden embroideries matching her wedding dress's design. Ying Huai, for the first time, get to hold her slender hand. It was soft and fragile. Clearly pampered. He forced his smile down and helped her out the sedan.

The first ceremony completed with the wife stepping inside Ying Huai's manor through the main door. The next ceremony finished after they arrived in front of their parents holding the red bow together. The final ceremony done with the three filial bows. All guests cheered for their union. Except for one person, Ying Wenxiang. He felt his chest becoming heavy by watching their wedding proceed. The cheers and applause from the high officials were a mock for him, completely ridiculing him in secret.

"Prince Brother, quick! Lift the veil!" the youngest ninth prince said in excitement. His brothers agreed as Ying Huai picked the ceremonial golden rod. He carefully used the hook to remove the veil blocking his wife's face. The rest of the princes sucked in their breath and the young ones didn't hide their awe.

Mi Cha have an exaggerated beauty as if the gods created her to perfection. Her eyebrows were willowy, her nose small but pointy. The thick curls of eyelashes framed her enchanting amber brown pupils. Her face is round and cute. Her lips painted in red as if an irresistible dessert. Hong Cha shyly lowered her head, her pink blushing caused them to adore her even more.

"Ai, Third Brother have a great wife."

"I agree."

"I doubt anyone can resist such beauty."

"Third Brother, you will surely have a good time tonight."

"Shush! Little Eighth and Ninth are here!"

"Eh, no worries Elder Brothers. I also envy Third Brother having a wife like this!"

"Third Brother, did you marry a goddess?"

With his siblings getting noisy, he still kept his gaze on Hong Cha. Ying Huai recalled, she looked almost the same as Ying Wenxiang's wife six years ago. However, the difference is that Hong Cha is younger and she seemed to have blossomed today than before. Little did he know, women can become more attractive after copulating with a man.
