Butler Fu brought over two bowls of soup with glutinous rice balls, dates, and lotus hearts in it. The soup was sweet and symbolized a sweet and harmonious union. However, the newlyweds had to feed each other the first mouthful of the soup.
Of course, Gu Jinglian started by feeding Chu He.
It was his first time drinking sweet soup. Not a fan of sweet food, he fiddled and poked at the ingredients in the bowl as he asked his bride, "What do you wish to eat in here?"
"I'll… have glutinous rice balls then!"
"Alright."
It was rare for Gu Jinglian to be docile, being one who was usually unruly. He rarely took the initiative to feed others, much less went as far as asking what she wished to eat, showing that he was actually seeking another person's opinion.
How rare!
Chu He was naturally happy to see this happen and indulged in the experience of being fed by him!
