Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Past Is Endless (2)
In the next few days, Nangong Shu was accompanied by Lian Chengxian and had a comprehensive understanding of the affairs in the villa. During this period, Lian Yan has always been by her side. Lian Chengxian only has two daughters, Lian Yan and Forsythia, and no sons. Lian Yan is smart and steady, with an easy-going personality, and is very loved and respected by Lian Chengxian. In addition, when he was dealing with affairs, he let Lian Yan participate, and it seems that he will hand over the villa to Lian Yan in the future.
Nangong Shu also created many opportunities for herself to be alone with Lian Yan. The more he got along, the more he found himself trapped in his love for her, and he couldn't extricate himself. Lian Yan is not only beautiful and generous, but also resourceful, and proficient in music, especially good at pipa. When they are together, they seem to have endless topics and the same interests, and the two fit together as if they were made in heaven, and they already have a tacit understanding without running-in.
Sometimes, expressions of love are silent, but they can also be answered.
Nangong Shu could feel it, and even Yan had a good impression of him. Indeed, an elegant and gentle son like Nangong Shu is also difficult to find in the world. No matter how calm and dignified Lian Yan is on the surface, she is a girl who is just beginning to fall in love inside. In the face of a perfect man like Nangong Shu, it was difficult for her not to be emotional.
The night before leaving the Hidden Sky Villa, Nangong Shu finally mustered up the courage to express his heart to Lian Yan. The two sat side by side in the most beautiful "Yunbo Pavilion" in the villa, watching the stars and admiring the moon. "Yunbo Pavilion" is built on the highest point of the whole Haoying Mountain, when the mist between the mountains is ethereal, gather in one place, stand in the pavilion as if in the sea of clouds, beautiful. The so-called mountains are high and vast, and this is the case. "Yunbo Pavilion" is Lian Yan's favorite place in the whole villa, she always likes to come and sit when she has nothing to do on weekdays.
Tonight is starry and the night is breezy. Sitting in the pavilion and looking at the sky, I only felt that the night sky was so close. It seems to be within reach. The moonlight is faint and starlight, reflecting the delicate side face of Lian Yan with a divine beauty. Nangong Shu stared at her stupidly and asked, "Ah Yan, are you willing to go to Tianshui Lake with me?" ”
"Huh?" Lian Yan turned her head, her eyes were bright and moving, and she even raced through the starry sky. She smiled. Asked. "Do you want to invite me over?"
Nangong Shu only felt that his heart was beating too fast, and he was about to be unable to bear it. Tonight was his last chance, if he couldn't say it. I'm afraid that I won't regret it: "No, it's not a guest, I want you to accompany me back to Tianshui Lake!" Yan, I like you. That said, it's a bit abrupt. But I'm serious. From the first time I saw you at the foot of Haoying Mountain, I fell in love with you, and now it is hopeless. I want to go back later. Send someone to the villa to propose. Would you like to marry me and live with me in Tianshui Lake? ”
Lian Yan's beautiful big eyes blinked and asked, "You mean, you want to marry me?" ”
Nangong Shu's face was so red that it looked like it was about to drip blood. But he always looked into Lian Yan's eyes, nodded seriously and replied, "Yes, Ah Yan." I want to marry you. And in this life, you alone are enough! Can you promise me? ”
Lian Yan heard this. Hung his head and said nothing. She was silent for a long time, never saying a word. Nangong Shu only felt that this silence was almost going to torture him crazy, could it be that Ah Yan didn't want to accept his affection?
Finally, I don't know how long it took, Lian Yan raised her head to look at him again. She opened her lips and smiled slightly, "I can't leave with you now." My father is very old, and he relies on me for many things. Ah Qiao is too young to take care of the affairs of the villa. I need to accompany Ah Qiao for two years to train her to be the new successor of the villa. Then I will be able to go wherever you want. ”
Two years later.
Lian Yan left Haoying Mountain, escorted by the people of the villa, all the way to the shore of Tianshui Lake.
Two years ago, Nangong Shu got Lian Yan's promise for a period of two years. Soon after he left the Hidden Heaven Villa, he sent people to the villa to propose marriage. Lian Chengxian is very optimistic about this family business, and he has always been good friends with the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, and this time he can become an in-law, which is really a beautiful thing. Besides, Lian Chengxian loves Lian Yan very much. He felt that his eldest daughter was outstanding, beautiful and intelligent, and ordinary men could not match it at all. And Nangong Shu aside, regardless of his appearance, he is a good man who is difficult to find in the world. How can such a wonderful person not be proud of his daughter when he falls in love with him?
For two years, Lian Yan carefully taught Forsythia. Regardless of martial arts, talent, strategy, or personality, she taught them one by one and did her best. Forsythia is over 15 years old, and although she is still a little naughty, she has matured a lot more than she did two years ago. The date for her appointment with Nangong Shu has arrived, and now, she can be his only wife in this life without any worries.
Nangong Shu led the crowd to wait by the lake early, with an irrepressible look of happiness on his face. Watching the group gradually approach, his mood became more and more uncontrollable. Until the person he was thinking about came out of the green sedan chair, Nangong Shu only felt that time stood still!
She is still as beautiful as when she first saw her, wearing a light gauze skirt with blue water, beautiful and slender, as clear and moving as the lake water of Qinglingling. The expression on her face was calm and gentle, and compared with two years ago, there was a faint sense of maturity. The beautiful woman in front of her is about to become his Nangong Shu's wife.
It's just that Nangong Shu was too immersed in the joy of reuniting with Lian Yan and didn't notice the strangeness of the person next to her. In addition to him, there was another person who was also fascinated by the fairy-like woman. It's just that he can't look directly at that woman like Nangong Shu. He could only stare at her secretly, thinking that she was going to be his mistress, and secretly hurt himself.
Lian Yanlian moved lightly and walked in front of Nangong Shu. She bent her knees slightly and said, "Lian Yan has seen the young master. ”
Nangong Shu stepped forward to support her: "Ah Yan, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" ”
Lian Yan smiled: "Well, I'm here." In the future, I will not keep you waiting, nor will I leave you. ”
According to the rules of the Nine Heavens Shrine, foreign women who marry into the clan can only enter Tianshui Lake on the day of marriage. One is that foreign women can't live at the bottom of the lake for a long time. Although there is a huge barrier between the Nine Heavens Shrine and the lake, if you enter the shrine through the secret passage, you can breathe as if you were on land for a short time. However, in order to live at the bottom of the lake for a long time, it is necessary to practice the art of water repellent; Second, only when you worship the dragon god and perform the husband and wife ceremony when you get married, you can be regarded as a person in the clan and be blessed by the dragon god. Therefore, Lian Yan needs to live in the mountain palace by the lake for a period of time and practice the secret art of water removal in the clan. And Nangong Shu is going to return to the clan to prepare for the wedding. Until the time of the wedding, Nangong Shu took her to the lake bottom shrine.
Although the scale of the mountain palace is not very large, it is very thoughtful and exquisite. Nangong Shu chatted with Lian Yan for a long time before reluctantly leaving. Before leaving, he left some people in the palace for Lian Yan, including two maids, four maids, and a number of chamberlains. There is also a calm girl, named Lixiang, who is the sister of the high priest who died from the sky, and is also one of the new protectors, responsible for protecting Lian Yan's safety. There is another man, who is also a member of the Nangong royal family, named Nangong Xi, the son of Nangong Shu's aunt, who has been taken care of by Nangong Shu's parents since he was a child. He can be regarded as a marriage envoy, and he stays in the palace to take care of a qiē affair.
Nangong Shu is one year older than Nangong Shu and is Nangong Shu's cousin. Although they are the same age and grew up together, their personalities are completely different.
Nangong Shu is bright, free and easy, and has thousands of favors, and naturally has a little arrogance and nobility; Nangong Xi is calm, humble, and always polite, but people can't guess what he's thinking. After getting along for a few days, Lian Yan always felt that she couldn't see through this person. However, he managed the affairs in the palace in an orderly manner, and took good care of Lian Yan. Sometimes Lian Yan encountered problems while practicing the water repellent technique, and he was always patient to help her answer. (To be continued)
