Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-1796

Everyone fixed their eyes on the arrival of the couple. They were surprised to see The Lord carrying his bride in his arms. All three emperors were present, including their officials of all ranks. Every other clan's leaders and their followers were present as well. The place was extensively decorated with bouquets and piles of brocades. There was a sea of faces swamped at the venue.

These great leaders were all present at the same time, spread out in every corner and waiting patiently for the arrival of the couple. There was no way to tell who was the noblest among them all, for many overlords were there.

The overlords were considered as people who had traveled far and wide enough to have a breadth of knowledge, but none of them had ever seen a groom carrying his bride out their bridal carriage before.

The protocol officer would definitely emerge and censure them for behaving so inappropriately, but it was the wedding of the Lord and the National Celestial Master. No one dared to express their disapproval. None of them could find the guts to do so.

Many of them were present with their wives. A multitude of feelings surged up when they saw The Lord carrying his bride in his arms. Certainly, they were married to their husbands in an open, correct manner with a huge wedding celebration. However, their weddings were incomparable to what The Lord had done for his bride today.

To their surprise, they would never have expected to see a man, as superior as The Lord, carry his own bride to their wedding ceremony. The gesture was very lovely, like he was holding something so precious in his arms that he carefully cherished.

The intimate interaction did not set the world on fire. Instead, they thought that it was rather lovely for The Lord to attend the wedding ceremony with his bride in his arms.

They fixed their eyes upon the couple as they walked. Long Siye was amongst the people present. He was immediately filled with complicated feelings when he saw them.

Once upon a time, he pictured how he would hold his wedding when he finally reunited with Gu Xijiu. He knew how weddings were like in the modern days, so he knew exactly what Gu Xijiu wanted. He had even considered if he should carry her in his arms on the day of their wedding, but he was worried that such an act would arouse criticism.

He tended to overthink and was overly concerned with too many trivial things. The more he was concerned, the more losses he had to suffer. Some things were not meant to be.

He turned and looked at Gu Xijiu fixedly. She lay happily in Di Fuyi's embrace, with her arms tightly locked around his neck. He could not see her expression with the red veil covering her face, but he could tell that she trusted Di Fuyi wholeheartedly from their interaction.

She would not easily put her trust in anyone. In fact, Di Fuyi might be the only one that she trusted. To his surprise, he also noticed that Gu Xijiu did not feel awkward under the many judgmental eyes. Instead, she nestled her head so naturally against his shoulder, as though he was the only one that mattered even when the whole world was collapsing on them.

Long Siye thought about what Gu Xijiu had once told him before, that he should not put his trust in anyone. If anything were to happen to the one he cared about, he would definitely be emotionally devastated. There was only one person that he should trust, which was himself.

It was once her principle. Had she given up her own belief? Di Fuyi had let her down so many times. Had she forgotten all of that? Long Siye could not help it. He had to remind Gu Xijiu when he finally had the opportunity.

Regardless of what Long Siye had in mind, Gu Xijiu was indeed a very happy woman at that moment.
