Chapter 171: In the Red Chamber
"Are you hungry?" Yu Nianzhen suddenly asked.
Jiang Yue touched his stomach, and a sly look flashed in his eyes.
"I am very hungry." He said with a wretched voice, and Yu Nianzhen’s ears turned pink.
When he saw that, Jiang Yue chuckled and pulled the other to return to the ancient palace.
’I will settle this account with you later.’ Yu Nianzhen thought, and Jiang Yue inexplicably shivered.
He looked at the other but didn’t see any difference in his expression or emotions.
’Did I imagine it?’ He wondered.
’Either way, it doesn’t matter. What is to come will come.’ He thought and resigned himself to his fate.
A short while later, they arrived at their room on the third floor.
"I didn’t realise this low table and two mats are made of jade." Jiang Yue admired as he took his seat.
"I don’t know what kind of jade is used, but it has a mind-clearing and body-refreshing effect." Yu Nianzhen informed.
"Now that you mention it..." Jiang Yue closed his eyes and enjoyed the effect.
He didn’t notice it before, but his mind and body felt a little refreshed compared to before.
"Is it okay to accept this ancient palace from master Yang?" Jiang Yue asked.
No matter how he looked at it, this ancient palace was not a simple abode treasure. The identity of the previous owners should also not be simple.
"It’s okay." Yu Nianzhen assured.
When his master gave him the ancient palace, Yu Nianzhen was reluctant to accept it.
After all, good things should be kept for personal use, and his master would soon marry his fiancee from the Ice Palace.
However, Yu Nianzhen later found out he didn’t need to worry.
Although the ancient palace was a good thing, master Yang had two more. One of the remaining two was even better than the one he gave to his disciple.
After hearing Yu Nianzhen’s explanation, Jiang Yue sighed in admiration.
"Master Yang’s luck is quite good." He said.
These kinds of ancient treasures could only be met and not sought, but master Yang had found three. This could only mean that he was loved by the heavens and his luck was not ordinary.
"Luck is one part, but the biggest part is that master was always on adventures before he was injured." Yu Nianzhen said, and his face turned a little gloomy.
"Don’t worry." Jiang Yue took the other’s hand and held it in his own.
"Although the leaves you left behind are not enough to heal his damaged origin, they are enough to let him advance to the core formation realm. When we see him next time, he should already be in the core formation realm."
"You are right." Yu Nianzhen squeezed his lover’s hand, and his mood lightened.
He then waved his hand, and many food plates appeared on the jade table.
"Did you cook all these?"
Jiang Yue looked at the more than thirty plates and couldn’t help but be surprised.
After they returned to the sect from the secret realm, they spent most of their time refining resources. It was a shock to discover that Yu Nianzhen had squeezed out so much spare time to prepare everything.
"Are you happy?"
"I am happy." Jiang Yue nodded, and his answer wasn’t perfunctory.
Originally, today was a special day because it was their birthday.
However, Yu Nianzhen had made the day even more special and Jiang Yue couldn’t help but be happy.
He had never thought he was the kind to put so much heart into things like birthdays and weddings.
However, he now discovered that it was not about the events but the people involved.
"I am very happy." He said again and picked some spirit vegetables from one of the plates.
"As long as you are happy."
After that, they ate in companionable silence, and all the food plates were quickly emptied.
"I also have these." Yu Nianzhen said when they finished eating.
Jiang Yue looked and saw that the other had removed a plate of spirit fruit, a wine gourd, and two jade cups.
The exquisite wine cups were green, and each was etched with a sword and moon pearl.
’He really went out of his way.’ Jiang Yue thought as he looked at the wine cups.
A moment later, he thought of something, and his face turned red.
’After the wedding wine...’
"What are you thinking?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
His voice was unusually low, and the tone had a subtle teasing that Jiang Yue could not ignore.
"What could I be thinking?" He grumbled and glared at the other.
"If you say so." Yu Nianzhen chuckled and poured two cups of wine. He handed one cup to his lover and held the other in his right hand.
"What kind of wine is this? It’s so fragrant." Jiang Yue said and took a deep breath of the wine fragrance.
"I made it myself."
Because he had always been thinking about marrying Jiang Yue, Yu Nianzhen began to prepare early.
This wine was brewed before they entered the thousand herbs garden and had been fermenting for more than a year.
Although it couldn’t compare to the exquisite wines that could be bought in wine shops at Sea Cloud city, it was his heart.
"It smells good." Jiang Yue nodded in approval.
"Do you want to feed your husband some wine?" Yu Nianzhen teased, and Jiang Yue rolled his eyes.
He hooked his arm around the other’s and they sipped from each other’s cups.
"It’s delicious." Jiang Yue said and blushed.
"It is." Yu Nianzhen agreed.
Maybe it was because their lover fed them, but the wedding wine tasted unusually delicious.
"XiaoYue..." Yu Nianzhen called in a low voice.
His voice was hoarse, and the eyes that looked at his lover were darker than usual.
"I..."
Yu Nianzhen didn’t wait for the other to continue. He unhooked their arms and placed the wine cups on the jade table.
He then leaned across the table and kissed Jiang Yue.
Unlike before, this kiss was filled with subtle emotions that neither had dared to express since arriving in the Cangxing world.
"XiaoYue, I can’t wait any longer." Yu Nianzhen said.
Rather than answer, Jiang Yue wrapped his arms around his lover’s neck, and Yu Nianzhen didn’t hesitate.
He lifted him in his arms, stood up and hurriedly walked toward the bed covered with red beddings.
When he approached the bed, the room darkened, and the dragon and phoenix candles suddenly lit up.
In this semi-dark room with only candles for light, the feeling between the two became more ambiguous.
"Kiss me." Jiang Yue demanded as soon as his body landed on the bed.
For some reason, he didn’t feel any inhibitions. All he wanted was to become one with his lover.
"Okay."
With that, Yu Nianzhen leaned down and kissed the other.
At first, the kiss was light and lingering, but soon after, his tongue stole into Jiang Yue’s mouth. Their tongues danced together, and both felt like all their pleasure nerves were ignited.
"XiaoYue..." Yu Nianzhen mumbled, and his hand fumbled with the tie of Jiang Yue’s robe.
He desperately wanted to possess the silver-haired beauty, and his hands moved faster with the urgency.
However, this was their wedding night.
No matter how his body ached, he couldn’t be hasty.
With such thoughts in mind, he broke free from Jiang Yue’s lips and calmed himself down.
"You are so beautiful." He said and leaned down to shower kisses on the flushed face.
At the same time, his hands removed Jiang Yue’s outer wedding robe.
When the silver-haired beauty was naked, Yu Nianzhen looked at him and groaned in desire.
"Do you like what you see?" Jiang Yue asked with a smirk.
His tone was teasing, but he couldn’t hide the desire in his voice.
"I like it." Yu Nianzhen said and leaned down.
His hot mouth captured a pink bud, and Jiang Yue moaned in pleasure.
As a man, he didn’t expect to have a reaction when his nipple was sucked, but he was clearly wrong.
"Azhen..." He called, feeling a little desperate.
Yu Nianzhen answered by sucking harder while his left-hand pinched Jiang Yue’s right nipple.
’He seems to like this.’ Yu Nianzhen thought.
It wasn’t just Jiang Yue’s reaction, he could also feel a burst of pleasure through their soul contract.
This second-hand pleasure shouldn’t have affected him, but he felt especially stimulated.
The rod between his legs stiffened and strained against his underwear, causing him to involuntarily rub against his lover’s crotch.
In response, Jiang Yue reached between their bodies and touched the other’s hardened member. At this, Yu Nianzhen pushed himself against the wandering hand, and Jiang Yue wasn’t shy.
He gripped Yu Nianzhen through his clothes and tightened his hand around the unbearably hard cock.
At the touch, Yu Nianzhen felt a burst of pleasure, and the feeling was transmitted through the soul contract causing them to tremble.
