Chapter 62: Blush
"Yes." In a monotone, uncaring, and freezing cold voice. Then, she closed the gate again.
This made Hu Ye freeze in his place for several minutes before he told the Earl Qing residence's gate guards to bring the gifts inside.
Their wedding date got scheduled to happen in two months' time.
The Hu sisters in addition of Zhi Yu and Zhi Shao Yao came again on their wedding day to see and congratulate the bride, they were delighted to see such a beautiful bride. She was so beautiful that they, except for Hu Zi who can't see the perfect blend of her cherry red lips and perfect white skin, froze for a long time, before they happily gave their blessings.
Qing Bo who was waiting outside the courtyard moved to see his sister in a red wedding dress. His deep dark unfathomable eyes showed deep emotions when he saw her.
"Big brother..." Qing Guang was sad because she needed to separate from her brother and this residence so soon.
Qing Guang was told about the deal by her brother just before Hu Ye came with the gifts. She was shocked, but she understood it was unavoidable for her. Making a sad expression, she hugged her one and only brother before he hugged her back.
Qing Bo hoped she will be safe from their father and the imperial family claws in the great general estate. This girl that shared the same fate and hardship with him, the only one who always stayed beside him. He was unwilling to let go, but the thorny road he chose wouldn't spare this little girl even if he begs heaven and earth.
For the first time in his memory, he felt tears falling from his eye.
While waiting for the groom to come and pick her up, Qing Guang covered herself in a red veil and went inside the bridal chair. He came shortly after she went in, when she sized up the male groom in of her, she realized that this boy was not the same brat who stubbornly asked her to teach him archery a long time ago.
"What's wrong Guang, are you nervous?" Hu Ye could feel Qing Guang's stare from behind the veil.
"No."
"Then do you feel uncomfortable with those wedding getup?"
"From the rest of my life, I will probably only wear such a getup once. No matter how annoying it is, I will do it for this day."
"Is that so?" Hu Ye titled his head. "Then, why are you staring at me like that?"
"Ye…" Qing Guang asked seriously. "Why do you want to marry me?"
"Why are you asking something like that now?"
"I just want to make sure that my husband hasn't gone crazy since you still propose even though you know all of my bad sides. You know I am an unfeminine girl that is crazy about meat."
"Don't worry, we have a lot of meat at home."
"I can't cook."
"My mother trained a team of chefs so they can cook anything anytime." Hu Ye chuckled.
"..." Qing Guang frowned. "My hair, I cut it myself, don't you feel embarrassed for marrying someone as shameless as me?"
"Oh, you really know yourself well, Guang."
"Damn you brat…"
"I think you look exquisite with that short hair." He gently smiled.
"But…"
"Guang, if it disturb you, I will cut my hair too." He lightly glanced over. "So that every time someone were to say that you are shameless, means that I am shameless too."
Qing Guang jolted. Except for people like Shou who had a special case, both man and woman here kept their hair long and were proud of it. Yet, the weight he will carry if he did that will be heavier than hers because he is the only heir. "No, no need…"
Hu Ye chuckled.
She stopped staring at his face and sized him up. He was all grown up, taller than her, stronger than her, and even more cunning now.
"Really a troublesome brat, ah."
That day, Fei Ying flew all around the imperial city, giving blessings to the new couple.

"Xiao Zi." Shou broke a cold sweat. "What are you doing?"
Hu Zi was sitting on the Four Season courtyard pavilion, her legs are folded, hands on top of her thighs, back straight. She was focusing herself, Shou wondered what she wanted to do by taking this kind of position.
"I'm peeping." Hu Zi said calmly.
"Peeping? Peeping on what… Oh…" One by one, veins popped on Shou's forehead. He called forth the wind and blurred Hu Zi's radar.
Hu Zi's eyes suddenly opened. "Stop master, I can't see anything, I can't see, ah!"
"No! To think that my disciple is using the wind power to check your newly wed brother's bridal room, I won't let you have your wind vision until the sun rise!"
Hu Zi could only sense blurred surrounding, she trembled and tried to catch her master. Shou was faster, he jumped to the back as soon as Hu Zi moved. "Master!"
"Heh, catch me if you can." Shou smirked.
"Shou, the show will start soon, please don't disturb my wind vision, ah!"
The Two of them played chase in the pavilion, Shou made hu Zi go rounds along the pavilion edge until both of the were tired.
Hu Zi and Shou fell to the floor, both panting and sweating. Even though he didn't run around much like Hu Zi, he used too much energy to stop her from peeping. Shou looked and saw the the moon was still on top of them, he could not let Hu Zi have her power yet.
"Shou?" Hu Zi searched for his where about in the dark, she was out of breath. Shou's wind moving was far stronger than her which is why she couldn't fight back when he is using it right now. The winds surrounded them and circled randomly. To Hu Zi, the whole world was so dark and blurry to her. "Where are you?" She panicked. It's been such a long time since she felt like this.
"Where are you Shou? Please answer…" She hated this feeling, this darkness, she was afraid and lonely.
Shou's eyes widened, he caught Hu Zi's hand right away and brought himself closer. "I'm here, don't be scared, Xiao Zi." He gently put Hu Zi's dainty white hand between his.
"..." Hu Zi clenched her fist, she couldn't believe that, after so long, she was still panicking when she saw the darkness again. Suddenly, she jolted.
"Xiao Zi?" Shou worriedly looked at her. Not long after, she blushed. "Eh?" Shou's eyes widened. "Don't tell me that…" He accidently stopped blocked Hu Zi's wind vision. "Oh, heaven…"
