Chapter 2 - Arc I: The Sedan Chair Sent to The Wrong Bridal Chamber(2)

From this plot, it can be seen that the original owner was also a victim. She did nothing wrong. The only thing that she did wrong was, blocking the way of the female lead.

The marriage was hers, so it was okay to want to get it back. What’s more, the original owner had long liked Chen Yibo, so she was very angry when she saw the groom change to Chen Yichen.

However, she was not the female lead, and she did not have the female lead halo. The talented Chen Yibo was overjoyed on seeing his bride become the number one beauty, Tang Yujiao and the two soon fell in love. The original owner was just an ordinary boudoir girl, and the most courageous thing she ever did since she was young, was making trouble in the Chen Mansion. But with just such a gaffe, she gained a reputation for being unruly and willful. The original owner fought with the heroine for his love. She just wanted Chen Yibo to love her a little, even if it was only a little. But unfortunately, Tang Yujiao was the only one in Chen Yibo’s heart.

Since her mission target was Chen Yichen, Li Yuan certainly would not make a fuss in the Chen Mansion like the original owner did. Since Chen Yibo and Tang Yujiao made the best out of this blunder, she too had the plan to do the same. But she just didn’t know whether Chen Yichen, who was like a background board in the original plot, would be willing to cooperate with her.

Bang bang!

The door was pushed open, and a figure walked in.

From under the veil, Li Yuan saw a pair of man’s feet. As soon as her veil was lifted off, she was momentarily blinded by the lights. Her eyes flickered and closed instinctively.

Silence.

The other person did not speak.

She opened her eyes and raised her head. A fierce-looking man with a cold face stood before her.

Just as the rumors said, there was a hideous scar on his face. However, he was not ugly. She knew if there was no such scar, he would have been a very handsome man. Even with that scar, he still did not look ugly. It just made him look very fierce.

He was tall and strong, with eyes like that of wolves’. He looked very fierce and intimidating. In this era where weak and frail-looking men were preferred, he would not be considered a handsome man. However, she liked him.

“Are you going to stand like this all night? My neck hurts.” Li Yuan said softly. Her clear and bright eyes were full of grievances.

Chen Yichen raised his eyebrows and the ominous glint in his eyes dwindled a little.

‘Isn’t she afraid of me?’

Wasn’t she the one who said she didn’t want to marry him? But looking at this delicate charming appearance, she now doesn’t seem to be reluctant at all.

Chen Yichen didn’t know that the bride in front of him was not the one to whom he was betrothed. Even if his fiancée was known as the number one beauty, he had never seen her face. Occasionally he met her outside, but his colleagues teased him a lot, so he never looked at her. In his opinion, women were nowhere near as interesting as his sword.

For the first time, he looked at his bride very seriously and then found that she was very pleasing to the eye.

“Help me take off my phoenix crown, my neck is about to break.” Li Yuan knew that with Chen Yichen’s dull temperament, she would have to take the initiative to attack first. Otherwise, they would only silently look at each other all night.

Chen Yichen helped her take off the phoenix crown from her head and Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Much more comfortable. Thank you, husband.”

Chen Yichen was stunned for a moment.

Husband…

This title was very foreign to him.

However, he didn’t hate it at all.

Li Yuan stood up and looked at Chen Yichen shyly. Her cheeks were flushed.

“Husband…Should we drink a cup of wine?”

Chen Yichen’s eyes darkened. He stood up with her and strode to the table. The corners of Li Yuan’s mouth rose in a victorious smile.

Chen Yichen poured two glasses of wine and handed one to Li Yuan. Li Yuan shyly took it in her hand and blushed while drinking.

After drinking the glass of wine, she felt a wave of heat spreading throughout her body. The nuptial wine for the newly-weds was spiked with aphrodisiacs to liven things up a little. What’s more, the people behind the scenes who urged this marriage were desperately wishing for the wood to be made into a boat1. Because of this, the temperature inside the room increased greatly.

Looking at the woman whose flushed cheeks were as beautiful as the rosy dawn, Chen Yichen’s eyes were full of complex emotions.

The title of legendary number one beauty was indeed well-deserved. Her face was as beautiful as a bright moon and her figure as graceful and charming like a siren. Her eyes exuding tenderness and love hooked his soul completely.

He swallowed.

So hot.

So dry.
