Chapter 2099 - 497: Wedding Night

There are clear traces of red on the white handkerchief.

At this moment, Chen Jie silently approached her from behind. She turned around and immediately saw Chen Jie, startled and then blushing.

Chen Jie said, "What are you hiding?"

Zhao Ya replied with a blush, "Didn’t you already see it all?"

Chen Jie responded, "Haha, I saw it, indeed. But I wanted you to say it out loud."

Zhao Ya replied, "Why are you such a rogue? How did I not know before?"

Chen Jie said, "Haha, before winning over a beauty, shouldn’t I act a bit more refined?"

"Not acting anymore?"

Zhao Ya gave Chen Jie a sideways glance, and Chen Jie said, "It’s so tiring to keep pretending. I prefer being straightforward with my wife."

Zhao Ya replied, "Did you say that to the other two wives as well?"

Chen Jie responded, "Hahaha, no, I’ve only ever said it to you."

Hearing this, Zhao Ya replied, "I don’t believe you."

Then, Chen Jie said, "Come, let me comb your hair."

Zhao Ya replied, "Okay."

Chen Jie picked up the comb on the table and gently combed Zhao Ya’s hair. In this silent room, they both felt the peace of time.

When Chen Jie finished combing Zhao Ya’s hair, Zhao Ya spoke, "It’s getting late; we should go out."

Chen Jie replied, "Yes, after a busy night, I need to eat something to replenish."

Zhao Ya glanced at Chen Jie and said, "You really are such a rogue."

Chen Jie heard this and smiled without speaking, thinking to himself that being called a rogue by his wife was no big deal. The more of a rogue you are with your wife, the better.

With that thought, Chen Jie stood up and said to the door, "Come in."

Upon hearing this, Molan and Qing Zhu, who were waiting outside, immediately entered with basins for washing and started to help the couple freshen up.

Soon after washing up was finished, Chen Jie and Zhao Ya went out and just at the door, they saw Hong Mei waiting outside saying, "Master, Mrs. Zhao, my lady has prepared breakfast in the front courtyard, please come over."

Chen Jie said, "Let’s go."

Saying this, Chen Jie led Zhao Ya to the front hall, where Su Yunjin greeted them.

"Husband."

She first greeted Chen Jie, then immediately took Zhao Ya’s hand and said, "Sister Zhao, yesterday you got married. I haven’t had the chance to chat with you properly. Today there are fewer people, perfect for us sisters to talk in private."

Saying this, she naturally held Zhao Ya’s hand.

Zhao Ya was initially a bit embarrassed, but being taken by Su Yunjin felt very natural. She followed her to the table.

Wan’er also spoke, although she had thoughts of vying for favor with Zhao Ya, with Su Yunjin mediating in between, the two soon got along happily.

Su Yunjin might seem easy-going, yet she was crucial; having her around was like having an adhesive that made everyone get along smoothly.

Just like this, the three women chatted, laughed, and enjoyed their breakfast.

Chen Jie felt quite relieved and, while eating breakfast, thought about the pleasant moments of yesterday, feeling really good at that moment. After breakfast, Chen Jie was going to return with Zhao Ya to the Reception Hall to meet the Ruyang King.

Su Yunjin was well-prepared with plenty of gifts, making sure everything was perfectly arranged.

Outside, Chen Jie saw Chen Xiaohu and inquired if the guests from yesterday had been settled well. Chen Xiaohu replied, "They are all settled."

Chen Jie suddenly realized that during the wedding yesterday, there were many guests, but his third brother, Sea Dragon King Fang Guozhen, didn’t come. This made Chen Jie somewhat worried; considering his relationship with his third brother, unless something was preventing him, he certainly wouldn’t miss it. But he did not come.

This surely means something has happened!
