Ch. 780 519: Sleeping Together

So, with some effort, he reached down, grabbed Yaoyao's leg, and tossed it to the side.

Instantly, Chen Yuan felt a lot lighter.

He let out a breath.

The aftermath of a hangover was, without a doubt, miserable. His stomach felt empty, and his whole body ached as if it had been taken apart. But it didn't matter. For a true man, the most practical approach was to get used to this kind of pain, because getting this drunk was simply unavoidable—especially in Huaxia society.

Chen Yuan only felt miserable for a moment.

His thoughts soon turned to the two sisters.

First, he helped Jiangg Yao adjust her sleeping position. Then he turned his head to face Jiangg Ning, watching her sleep soundly and feeling her warm breath on his skin.

'Just like that... we're married?'

Chen Yuan thought to himself.

From telling his adoptive parents he wanted to get engaged, to the elderly couple going to Lanjing, and everything that happened afterward... until he finally won over Jiangg Ning, plotted with Jiangg Yao, settled down in Mingzhu City, chose a wedding dress, took wedding photos, and the three of them started sharing a bed.

It felt as if all those things had happened just yesterday.

And yet, the days had rushed by like a torrent of water.

He had somehow endured those incredibly agonizing days, those nights spent struggling in torment, unable to sleep.

Now, the wedding was over.

He had married the two women he loved most in his life, who also happened to be the two women who loved him most.

And they had the exact same face...

Chen Yuan couldn't suppress the emotions welling up inside him. He had never felt this sentimental before. Not even during the wedding ceremony. Yesterday, his mind had been completely focused on getting through the entire event without a hitch. He hadn't had a single second to rest; he'd been in a state of high tension with no opportunity to indulge his feelings.

A few fleeting feelings had rippled through his mind for just a moment before vanishing.

And now.

In this moment.

Here, in this quiet room, on this bright and sunny morning.

Countless memories flooded his mind.

The stories that had unfolded between the three of them, stories that were impossible to put into words.

So many... so many emotions, and all those moments when they had resolutely made their choices for each other.

All that they had been through...

Chen Yuan suddenly felt...

'It wasn't easy...'

He remembered the beginning of their story, how the three of them, filled with a mix of fear and curiosity, had fallen into an ambiguous relationship, unable to pull away.

Even though they knew they were on the wrong path, they still sank deeper into it.

After they met, there had been endless probing, hints disguised as casual remarks. They were desperate to know how the others felt, yet they never dared to reveal their own feelings plainly.

The climax of the story began the moment he saw Jiangg Ning and Jiangg Yao with his own eyes, the twin sisters standing right in front of him.

Both of them were expressing their love in their own way.

Perhaps some words were blurted out uncontrollably, without a second thought. Or perhaps, other words were kept bottled up inside, words they would risk everything to tell the one they loved.

Forgive a woman in love. Forgive her for her constant chattering, for her countless little schemes, for deliberately showing off her innocent charms. And most of all, forgive her for always wanting to be just a little bit closer to the one she loves.

Many, many years ago, when she was sixteen—perhaps during an afternoon piano practice, or while sitting by the windowsill at her desk—she would subconsciously picture a figure standing far in the distance, separated from her by many years. That, she would say, was her beloved.

He would love all of her.

He would be willing to treat her as an equal, his heart matching hers.

So, until they met, neither should give their heart away easily.

They would change for each other, using every last bit of their strength.

And she had no idea how long she would have to wait for this person who seemed a world away. She just held on to the fantasy, hoping he would appear soon, become the light of her life, and illuminate her timid self, just like in a fairy tale.

This beloved didn't need to be exceptional or have any worldly status. He just needed to share her conviction, to not be the kind of rotten person who just goes with the flow. Then, the wait would be worthwhile.

This was her Love Letter to Chen Yuan.

And now, Chen Yuan felt he was qualified to return a Love Letter of his own.

This Love Letter was a grand wedding and the long years of companionship that lay ahead.

Chen Yuan reached out and brushed the soft hair from his lover's cheek.

She slowly opened her eyes.

...

"You're awake?"

Jiangg Ning woke up in a daze, only to see that Chen Yuan's eyes were slightly red. "What's wrong?"

Her eyes were still heavy with sleep, but she gripped his hand.

Her palm covering his.

"It's nothing. I just feel so happy looking at you."

"If you're happy, why are your eyes red?" Jiangg Ning pressed her lips together and said softly, "I don't believe you. Tell me."

"Because I'm incredibly happy that I finally married you."

As he spoke, Chen Yuan pulled her closer. Jiangg Ning was already in his arms, but now he enveloped her completely.

"I miss you so much," he whispered.

"But I'm right here beside you. Not just now, but from now on, I'll always be by your side. Even if you get tired of me one day, I'll still be here. That's what marriage is, you know."

"How could I ever get tired of you... Come on, a kiss." His hands began to roam.

Feeling Chen Yuan's movements, Jiangg Ning's cheeks grew hot.

A moment later.

She took the initiative, lifting her face to kiss him on the lips.

"It's so early. What are you up to?"

"I told you, didn't I? I miss you."

"Even if you do, we can't. There's a baby in my belly, after all. Just touching is okay, though."

Before she could finish, Chen Yuan's hands had already climbed onto her.

"Ah, right. You're pregnant."

His tone was filled with regret.

Last night was supposed to be their perfect wedding night, but unfortunately, he had been dead drunk.

Even a little intimacy would have made for a beautiful memory, but now, even that was off the table.

Chen Yuan could only hold Jiangg Ning tightly, his cheek pressed against hers, a faint melancholy spreading through his heart.

It seemed she could sense his mood.

After a moment of hesitation and internal debate, Jiangg Ning suddenly lifted her head.

"How about..."

"What is it?"

"How about you... try with Yaoyao?"

"She's asleep," Chen Yuan replied, stunned for a moment.

"It's fine. She can go back to sleep when you're done. Besides, it's not good for you to be so pent-up..."

"I don't know... it's so early."

Although that's what he said, Chen Yuan was already itching with desire. And on top of that, it was Ningning's suggestion. He had to respect the wishes of Ningning, the most precious member of his family, especially now that she was carrying their baby.

So, he turned and looked at Jiangg Yao.

She slept with a charming innocence. Her long, pale legs were exceptionally eye-catching. Her fair skin and delicate figure seemed... to have matured a little more.

The slip she wore revealed the snowy-white valley of her cleavage.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

"Then, you'll..." Chen Yuan hesitated.

"I want to watch," Jiangg Ning said suddenly, her eyes lighting up.

"Huh?" Chen Yuan was dumbfounded.

"There's nothing wrong with it. The three of us are married. This kind of thing will probably happen in the future, right? I'm a little curious..."

"Ningning, should you really be saying things like that?"

If he didn't know his two wives so well, Chen Yuan would have suspected that the Ningning before him was actually Yaoyao in disguise. But that was impossible.

Even if he were blindfolded, Chen Yuan could tell Ningning from Yaoyao with a single touch.

He was that familiar with them.

Not just with their personalities, but with their bodies, too.

"What's there not to say?" Jiangg Ning pouted, a rare sight. She pressed close to his ear and whispered, "I didn't dare say it before we were married, but now that we are, I can tell you... every time I imagine you being intimate with Yaoyao, I get really excited... I get this tingling sensation all over my body."

"You really feel that way?"

"Let me help you." Jiangg Ning kissed him on the cheek.

Her soft little hand came to rest on him.

Instantly.

Chen Yuan's face burned, and his heart pounded wildly.

A moment later.

Following Ningning's sacred command, he wrapped his arms around Jiangg Yao, lowered himself onto her, and gently kissed her.

"Mmm... Mmmh?"

Her eyes were still closed, but Jiangg Yao's brow furrowed slightly. Her peaceful dream had suddenly started to turn amorous.

Suddenly.

She opened her eyes, biting the edge of her lip.

A soft moan escaped her lips.
