In front of her eyes, there was a red veil made of mandarin ducks. Under the red veil, there were small pearl tassels swaying slightly as Chu Lian's body moved, drawing out beautiful arcs.

There was a light smell of agarwood in the room, as if it could calm people's hearts.

Chu Lian slightly lifted the red veil and looked at the decorations of the bridal chamber.

On the table, there was a dragon and phoenix candle as thick as a child's arm. In front of the candle, there was a 'wedding fruit'. Next to the table was an agarwood screen carved into the four seasons. There were also four square pieces of Lantian jade of the same size embedded on the screen.

Everything in front of her was exactly the same as described in the novel!

Chu Lian was overjoyed. This time, she was sure that she had transmigrated into the novel she had read before and became the female lead in the novel!

And right now, she was experiencing the scene described in the beginning of the novel.

When she thought about marrying such a good man, Chu Lian's heart was filled with anticipation!

She definitely wouldn't be like the female lead in the original novel, 'Chu Lian', who didn't follow the rules of womanhood. She wanted to be a good wife and live a carefree life with her husband. She wanted to manage her small family well and make up for her regrets in the modern world.

Unfortunately, when she transmigrated into the novel, she had only read half of the novel.

Just as she was lost in thought, there was the sound of messy footsteps and voices coming from outside.

Chu Lian hurriedly put down the veil and sat up straight.

Fuyan hurriedly walked in to remind her, "Sixth Miss, the matron of honor and son-in-law are here."

Xiyan hurriedly tidied up Chu Lian's wedding clothes, then respectfully stood to the side with Fuyan.

Chu Lian responded softly. Her heart was pounding. She was extremely nervous.

She felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

Outside, the matron of honor's loud congratulatory voice sounded, as well as the hearty laughter of a few men.

Suddenly, the quiet atmosphere in the inner room was disrupted, and the atmosphere became joyous.

"Sanlang, quickly lift the veil and let us see what kind of beauty sister-in-law has!"

"That's right, He Sanlang, we can't wait!"

The matron of honor also responded with a few teasing words. She cheerfully handed the golden scale from the tray carried by the servant girl beside her to He Sanlang. "Third Young Master, lift the veil and be satisfied!"

Everyone's gazes fell on the bride who was sitting by the bed, waiting to see how beautiful the He family's bride was.

Therefore, no one noticed the flash of sarcasm and contempt in the groom's eyes.

Chu Lian, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, was covered by a veil. She could only see a pair of black and red wedding boots in front of her. The boots were embroidered with complicated cloud patterns. It was very beautiful.

Then the golden rod appeared under the red veil. In the next second, the bright red world became bright. Chu Lian subconsciously squinted her eyes as if she couldn't stand the sudden brightness.

With curved eyebrows, red lips, almond-shaped eyes, and peach cheeks, the bride whose veil had been lifted had a bright and beautiful appearance. She was like a fresh lotus that had just bloomed, shy and charming.

Chu Lian only raised her head to glance at her future husband, He Changdi, before hurriedly lowering her head, not daring to look any longer.

But it was this unbearable shyness that added a new color to the beautiful bride in front of her.

Immediately, there were good friends who began to jeer.

"Sanlang, you brat, you're so lucky!"

Even the Second Young Master patted his younger brother's broad and strong shoulder in satisfaction.

He gave his approval to his new sister-in-law.

Very quickly, He Changdi was dragged out by his classmates and friends to drink.

A few matrons of honor stayed behind and exhorted a few words before leaving. The bridal chamber returned to its tranquility.

Chu Lian's heart was still thumping. Thinking of that hurried glance just now, she still couldn't believe it. Such a handsome and outstanding man would really be her husband in the future!

Immersed in joy, Chu Lian completely ignored the slight difference in the look in her eyes when they just met.

Gui Momo, who was tidying up at the side, frowned tightly. She was over thirty years old and had seen countless people. Just now, when everyone was paying attention to the bride's appearance, she was looking at the new son-in-law's expression.

Whether he was satisfied with the bride or not, one could roughly see it from the man's eyes.

Gui Momo was very confident in Chu Lian's appearance but when the new son-in-law saw this bright and beautiful young female, there was not even a little bit of surprise in his deep eyes. It was like an ancient well, calm and without any ripples.

Thinking of this, Gui Momo turned back to look at Sixth Young Lady who was sitting at the bedside and could not suppress the smile on her lips. Her heart was restless and she secretly hoped that her eyes were playing tricks on her.

Unless one had a heart of stone, which man would not be willing to dote on such a beautiful wife?

Chu Lian reached out her hand wanting to take off the phoenix coronet on her head but was stopped by Xiyan at the side, "Sixth Young Lady, just now the matrons of honor had instructed that this phoenix coronet must be left for Third Young Master to personally come and take it off for you."

Chu Lian helplessly put down her hand and twisted her sore neck before giving up.

Xiyan looked at Sixth Young Lady's appearance and found it somewhat funny, "Sixth Young Lady need not be anxious. It will not be long in front. With Old Matriarch holding down the fort, the son-in-law will come back from time to time."

Xiyan's teasing words made Chu Lian's face turn red.

"You talk so much. Why do I see you as a taciturn gourd on normal days?"

Chu Lian rebuked her with a glare before calming down. She got up and instructed a few maids to tidy up the things that she brought. In less than an hour, a young maid outside reported that the son-in-law had returned.

There were peanuts, longans and other things scattered all over the wedding bed. Chu Lian let Gui Momo clean those up and He Changdi also entered the outer room at this time.

This time there was no one by He Changdi's side and only a matrons of honor who came to teach the rules.

When He Changdi entered the inner room, the matrons of honor smiled and let the maids bring the nuptial wine that was prepared earlier.

"Third Young Master, Third Grandmother, after drinking the nuptial wine, in the future you will be husband and wife who will share weal and woe together!" The matrons of honor handed the nuptial wine over with a face full of smiles.

He Changdi's posture was tall and straight, like an indomitable pine tree that made people look up to him.

He took his own cup but still stood in front of the bed and did not move a single step. The matrons of honor suddenly felt that the atmosphere of the bridal chamber was depressed and gloomy. She secretly wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and giggled as she handed the other cup of nuptial wine to Chu Lian.

"After Third Young Master and Third Grandmother drink the nuptial wine, Third Young Master must personally remove the phoenix coronet from Third Grandmother's head. In the future, husband and wife will definitely be harmonious and beautiful."

Just as the matrons of honor's auspicious words finished, He Changdi coldly opened his mouth, "Alright, you can withdraw."

Ha?

That matrons of honor had not regained her senses and subconsciously opened her mouth, "Third Young Master, you have not drunk …"

"But did you not hear what I said?"

He Changdi's voice suddenly became serious, causing the warm and fragrant air in the room to have a trace of coldness.

The matrons of honor was only born as a servant so how would she dare to argue with the Third Young Master of the He family? She answered in fear and trepidation and left behind two auspicious words before leaving with the young maids in a fluster.

Racking her brains, she did not know why this Third Young Master of the He family suddenly went crazy and could only lament that she was the first matrons of honor to be chased out of the bridal chamber.

Chu Lian who was waiting to drink the nuptial wine with her head lowered was also stunned for a moment as she did not understand what was wrong with He Changdi.

Why was this scene different from what was described in the novel?

While her eyes were still confused, He Changdi called out to Gui Momo, Xiyan and the rest to be chased out.

Chu Lian raised her head to look at He San Lang. His eyebrows were like a painting and the outline was clear. After seeing the real person, his facial features were like beautiful jade and Chu Lian felt that he was even more handsome than what was described in the novel. But what was with that uncontrollable frost in his eyebrows?

Why was he looking at her with a cold and mocking gaze?

For a moment, Chu Lian was stunned by that cold and arrogant face and was somewhat at a loss.

According to the development of the novel, even though He Changdi did not consummate the marriage because of the female lead's rejection, but He Changdi treated the female lead warmly in the bridal chamber.

But the current situation made her have a bad premonition.

As if seeing the puzzled look in Chu Lian's eyes, He Changdi took a step forward and bent down slightly. His cold eyes did not have a trace of gentleness or joy and were as cold as a few feet of ice. He stared intently at the flowery young lady in front of him, as if trying to find something from her eyes.

After seeing the young lady's panic, He Changdi's lips suddenly hooked up and revealed a smile that made one's entire body turn cold. He was obviously a handsome and extraordinary man with a righteous aura but when he smiled like that, there was a trace of extreme evil charm.

Chu Lian was momentarily bewitched by He Changdi's appearance and could not react.

But following that, He Changdi raised his hand slightly and slowly poured the nuptial wine in the wine cup onto the floor …

Chu Lian looked at his action in disbelief as she watched the small cup of nuptial wine leave a dark wet mark on the red Persian carpet.

Subconsciously, she murmured, "What are you doing?"

Before Chu Lian could react, the cup of nuptial wine in her hand was also slapped away and the wine spilled on her red wedding dress. The next second, her wrist was tightly gripped by someone and a bone-chilling voice sounded in Chu Lian's ear, "Can't you see what I'm doing?

My wife! "

Damn, what the hell is going on? Why is he not acting according to the script? Chu Lian wailed in shock and anger in her heart. But before she could speak, He Changdi rudely pulled off the phoenix coronet on her head and threw it on the ground. The phoenix coronet was tied to her black hair bun and it made her scalp hurt.

He Changdi suppressed his voice and roared, "You don't deserve this phoenix coronet!"

Chu Lian reached out to push the man's chest in front of her, but her strength was too weak. Scratching the man's body was like a cat's paw, without any power at all.

Seeing her resistance, He Changdi's anger surged. His eyes turned red and he strangled Chu Lian's slender and soft white neck. The blue veins on his slender hands were bulging and his eyes were full of hatred!

Chu Lian could clearly feel his murderous intent!

Poor Chu Lian had never seen such a scene before. She could only feel the pain from the man's tight grip on her neck. Tears streamed down her face and she couldn't breathe. It was as if she was going to die in the next moment!

Her slender and fair face had already turned purple. He Changdi felt that if he exerted a little more strength in his grip, he would be able to get rid of this' vicious woman 'in front of him forever!

But when he thought of his expectant grandmother, his brothers who were always thinking of him, and the reputations of the Duke of Ying and Duke Jing 'an, he glared at her hateful eyes and could only slowly loosen his grip. He would let this' sl * t 'live for the time being!

After her neck was released, Chu Lian's face was deathly pale. She touched the bruise on her neck with both hands. Air rushed into her throat and she couldn't help but cough violently.

If she was really strangled to death by her newlywed husband, she would be the most pitiful transmigrator in the world.

Chu Lian's throat was dry and unbearable. She couldn't even speak and could only hold her chest as she panted heavily.

He Changdi's expression darkened even more. He sneered coldly and said, "Sixth Young Miss Chu, don't think that you're the only smart person here!"

Chapter 219: Wedding Night

Chu Lian frowned as she stared at He Changdi's slender figure. Her dark brows furrowed tightly as she looked at He Changdi with an inquisitive gaze.

She was very confused. In the novel, He Changdi was clearly a tolerant and magnanimous person. He was a rare great gentleman. However, the person in front of her was exactly the same as described in the novel. His personality was completely different.

If the He Changdi in the novel was a noble and pure moon, then the He Changdi in front of her was a gust of cold wind that blew in the dark night. He made her shiver!

What exactly went wrong?

Chu Lian couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought about it. Apart from He Changdi getting into an accident, everything else was exactly the same as in the novel!

The groom, He Jiasan, who was standing to the side with his hands behind his back, looked as if he would go blind if he took another look at the beautiful woman lying on the ground. He flung his sleeves heartlessly and strode out of the bridal chamber!

Nothing was left behind!

After He Changdi left, Gui Momo and Chu Lian's few maids who were chased outside rushed in.

When she saw Chu Lian lying on the ground with her hair in a mess and the phoenix coronet on the ground, Gui Momo's eyes turned red as she imagined the scene in the bridal chamber.

"Sixth Young Lady, quickly get up. The ground is cold. Be careful of your body."

Gui Momo secretly wiped her eyes and helped Chu Lian up with Jing Yan to let her sit at the bedside to rest.

She asked Xiyan to go to the washroom to fetch some hot water. Gui Momo asked softly at the side, "What happened to Sixth Young Lady and Young Master just now?

Did Sixth Young Lady suffer any grievances? "

Chu Lian regained her senses at this time. She still couldn't understand how He Changdi's personality became like this.

She raised her head to look at the wet nurse who had been with 'Chu Lian' since she was young and the few senior servant girls who came with her when she was married. Chu Lian endured the pain in her neck and the confusion in her heart. She tugged at the corners of her mouth to make herself look less miserable.

It was because she knew that these few people beside her were sincere and they were really thinking for Chu Lian.

"Nothing much. Momo need not worry.

Let Fuyan and the rest prepare some hot water. I will go take a bath and change this cumbersome wedding dress. "

She deliberately diverted the topic and it seemed that she had the intention to hide it. Gui Momo did not ask anymore.

She only reminded her worriedly, "Sixth Young Lady, remember that there are still Momo and a few maids by your side!"

Chu Lian nodded her head absent-mindedly and this made Gui Momo worried.

On this side, when Fuyan was serving Chu Lian in the bath, she discovered the bruise on her fair neck and jumped in shock. But she was also a quick-witted one and did not open her mouth to ask Chu Lian what was going on. Instead she avoided Chu Lian and told Gui Momo about this matter.

After taking a hot bath and changing into a light red pajamas, the relaxation of her body finally dispelled the fear that He Changdi suddenly brought to Chu Lian.

When Chu Lian came out from the washroom, Ming Yan had already tidied up the wedding bed. Fuyan helped her to the dressing table and helped her to put on some perfume.

Chu Lian drank another cup of tea and it was already the time of the night.

Logically speaking, the groom should be returning to the bridal chamber at this time.

Although Chu Lian did not understand why He Changdi's personality changed so much, she still patiently waited a while.

In the end, she only waited for a green clothed servant girl …

The green clothed servant girl passed the message, "Third Young Mistress, Third Young Master was forced to drink a few cups by several Wangye and classmates at the banquet earlier. He drank too much and was afraid that Grandmother would be suffocated. Thus, he has already been settled in the study to let Grandmother quickly rest."

When Gui Momo and the rest heard the green clothed servant girl's words, they were instantly dumbfounded!

He Sanlang actually did not intend to enter the bridal chamber!

If this was spread out, how would their Young Lady be able to face others!

"Sixth Young Lady, what should we do? Why not this old servant send someone to invite Third Young Master?"

Gui Momo could not understand why He Changdi was not even willing to enter the bridal chamber. It was impossible for Sixth Young Lady to offend Duke Jing 'an's residence or He Sanlang if there was any grudge between the two families.

Both of them had never met before their marriage, so how could there be any grudges?

Chu Lian shook her head and dismissed the green clothed servant girl.

"There's no need, Momo. You all go to sleep. There's no need for us to invite He Sanlang back to the bridal chamber."

The reason why Chu Lian said this was completely because of what had just happened. Since He Changdi had inexplicably said those words to her and almost strangled her to death, yet he still left a way out, how could he not come to the bridal chamber because she was drunk? When he came in earlier, she did not smell any trace of alcohol on him.

He was clearly doing this on purpose to humiliate her!

Since he did this on purpose, how could she invite him back? Wasn't this just asking to be humiliated?

Moreover, which couple would have a wife asking her husband to enter the bridal chamber when they were in the bridal chamber!

"Sixth Young Lady!"

Fuyan stubbornly refused to go to sleep. How could Third Young Master be like this? Sixth Young Lady was his official wife!

"Alright, alright. Quickly go wash up and rest. You still have to wake up early tomorrow. It's useless even if you all stay here."

Gui Momo helplessly brought a few senior servant girls out, leaving Chu Lian alone in the bridal chamber.

She sat on the edge of the bed and went over everything that had happened before. She recalled the plot of the novel.

Then she took out the Yuan Handkerchief hidden under the bedding and found a silver needle. She pricked it on her ring finger and dripped the blood on the Yuan Handkerchief. Finally she put away the disguised Yuan Handkerchief.

In the modern era, both her parents had died early and her family was poor. After a period of hard work and deception in the workplace, she was able to have a better life.

So Chu Lian was not simple. She was very smart and tenacious and knew how to judge the situation.

Although she had always looked forward to a beautiful and sincere relationship, it did not mean that she was ignorant.

Everything that had happened previously was enough to make her ponder deeply. She even started to suspect if the current He Changdi was like her and not the original goods.

Chu Lian was confident that she was not a soft persimmon that anyone could pinch.

The most important thing now was to understand the situation clearly.

Thinking of this, Chu Lian was glad that she had read the novel and had the ability to predict the future.

The current situation was not clear, but she would not lose her face for nothing!

If He Changdi was still the original He Changdi, of course, she wouldn't mind treating him well and treating him as the closest husband. But if He Changdi had changed and become a scumbag, then she wouldn't allow him to play her in the palm of his hand.

After thinking of all this, Chu Lian lifted the warm mandarin duck red brocade quilt and burrowed into it. Not long later, she had already entered the land of sweet dreams.

"How is it over there?"

Under the dim candlelight, a tall and thin figure coldly asked an unremarkable little servant girl behind him.

"Replying to Third Young Master, Third Mistress has already gone to sleep."

"What!" He Changdi's right hand that was hanging by his side suddenly clenched so tightly that his white knuckles could be seen.

Chu Lian's reaction was completely out of He Changdi's expectations. He did not go to the bridal chamber because he wanted to humiliate Chu Lian, but he did not expect that this slut could still sleep!

Thinking of all that had happened in his past life, He Changdi only felt that it was difficult to dispel his hatred. He could not change his marriage, so he would not let this woman who occupied the position of his wife live a good life. Otherwise, how could he repay the pain she had caused him in his past life!

Other people's love was worth a thousand gold, but He Changdi could not wait for this night to pass as soon as possible. He wanted to see his good wife's ugly expression the next day when she could not hand over the yuan handkerchief.

Sure enough, before dawn, Chu Lian, who was sleeping soundly, heard the soft rustling of clothes being taken off by the bed. There were still dragon and phoenix candles lit in the bridal chamber, so she could clearly see who was taking off clothes by the bed when she opened her eyes slightly.

He Changdi's figure was tall and slender, but he did not make people feel that he was thin or weak. He had long eyebrows and deep eyes, and his facial features were handsome and heroic. Under the hazy light, his face did not have the gloomy and cold aura he had during the day. He was as handsome as a god.

He was truly worthy of the title of "He Family's Yu Sanlang".

At this time, He Sanlang matched the description in the book.

However, when she thought of He Changdi's changes, Chu Lian rolled her eyes, closed her eyes, and continued to sleep.

He Changdi sat in the study for most of the night, feeling restless. It was currently the beginning of winter, and even the hottest man would be freezing cold.

He casually took off his outer robe and threw it to the side. He lifted the large red curtains of the multi-tool bed, and the scene that entered his eyes extinguished a lot of his anger. It was as if he had been doused with gasoline, and in an instant, he was set ablaze.

He saw Chu Lian curled up in the warm brocade quilt. Her cheeks were red, her hair was messy, and her small mouth was slightly curved. She looked extremely comfortable, and there was not a trace of worry on her face!

Yet, he was frozen in the cold study. His heart was blocked, and he couldn't even eat dinner.

Suddenly, He Changdi felt that his actions of deliberately ignoring Chu Lian were like hitting cotton.

He took a deep breath and coldly looked at Chu Lian, who was curled up in the warm quilt. Then, he exerted force with his large palm, and was about to pull away the warm quilt covering Chu Lian's body.

In the past, Chu Lian was used to sleeping alone. When she slept, she liked to use the quilt to wrap herself up. It was warmer that way.

When He Changdi pulled at her quilt, not only did the quilt not get pulled away, but it also flipped Chu Lian over, taking up the other side of the multi-tool bed.
