At this moment, he was wearing a red wedding gown, and his room was covered with the words "double happiness" and red cloth. This was personally arranged by his grandfather Xiao Lie and Little Aunt Xiao Lingxi last night. This was the room he usually stayed in, and also the bridal chamber.
The door was pushed open at this moment, and a lithe figure hurriedly walked in. Xiao Che immediately stood up, and shouted with a smile. "Little Aunt, is grandfather back?"
Xiao Lingxi was the daughter of Xiao Lie's middle age. Although she was Xiao Che's Little Aunt, she had only turned fifteen this year, and was one year younger than Xiao Che. His profound strength had already stepped into the sixth level of the Elementary Profound Realm. Although it couldn't compare to Xia Qingyue's, it was still quite good, and was highly valued by the Xiao Sect.
"Hehe, Che'er, you're awake."
Xiao Lie slowly walked in and looked at the Xiao Che who had already gotten off the bed. His expression was not bad either. Behind him followed two people. One was the housekeeper Xiao Hong who took care of him, and the other was the number one physician that everyone in Cloud Flowing City knew — — Situ Yun.
"It's good that you're awake. You don't look too ill, but let Master Situ inspect you. Today is the day of your wedding; you cannot afford even the slightest mistake." Grandmaster Situ, sorry for the trouble. " Xiao Lie said as he stepped aside.
After placing the medicine box that he had been carrying in his hand on the table, Situ Yun sat in front of Xiao Che and pressed a finger on his pulse. A short while later, his hand moved away from Xiao Che's body.
"Master Situ, how is Little Che's condition? Is it serious? " Xiao Lingxi asked anxiously, her nervous and worried expression clearly showing on her face.
Xiao Lie looked at Situ Yun. Even though he did not speak, his expression still carried a trace of seriousness … How could he not sense that Xiao Che's sudden coma was abnormal?
However, Situ Yun slowly stood up and lightly smiled, "Elder Xiao, you don't have to worry. Your grandson's condition is exceptional; forget about getting seriously ill, he doesn't even have a small illness. After all, today, your grandson is going to marry the first daughter of Xia Family, the most beautiful woman in our Cloud Flowing City, hehehe. "
Although Situ Yun tried his best to conceal it, his tone still revealed traces of regret. It was really unacceptable for a proud daughter of heaven to marry a good-for-nothing with no future.
"That's good." Xiao Lie heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "It's really hard on Master Situ to be pulled here by me so early in the morning. Old Hong, escort Master Situ to the reception hall to rest."
"No need." Situ Yun waved his hand and lifted up the medicine box, "Since your grandson has nothing to do, I shall not keep you any longer. Congratulations to Elder Xiao." Who knows how many people will be envious of the most outstanding daughter-in-law in Cloud Flowing City. Hehe, farewell. "
"Remember to come and have a cup of wine. Old Hong, send Grandmaster Situ off. "
"Che'er, are you really alright? "Is there anything wrong with it?" The moment Situ Yun left, Xiao Lie frowned, and still couldn't calm down as he asked. Previously, when Xiao Che had fainted, his body's temperature had plummeted and his vitality had dissipated. However, looking at Xiao Che's current appearance, he was indeed safe and sound, which made him suspicious in his heart.
"Don't worry Grandpa, I'm really fine." Xiao Che said with a relaxed expression. Looking at Xiao Lie's worried expression and his head full of white hair, the tip of his nose couldn't help but feel a little sore.
The Xiao Sect had a total of five Great Elder s. Although Xiao Lie was the Fifth Elder, he was the Xiao Sect's most powerful profound strength, and had already entered the tenth level of the Spirit Profound Realm five years ago. Now, he had even reached the peak of the tenth level of the Spirit Profound Realm.
Xiao Lie was only fifty-five years old this year, and despite possessing the strength at the peak of the Spirit Profound Realm, his hair was already completely white. Every time he saw his head of white hair, Xiao Che's heart would always feel sour.
The reason behind Xiao Lie's white hair was known by everyone in Cloud Flowing City. His only son, who was also Xiao Che's father, Xiao Ying, could be said to be the number one genius in the Cloud Flowing City back then. At the age of seventeen, he broke through the Elementary Profound Realm, reached the fifth level of the Profound-entering Realm at the age of twenty, and directly broke through the Profound-entering Realm at the age of twenty-three, reaching the True Profound Realm. Almost everyone believed that Xiao Ying, after reaching middle age, would definitely be the person who had the most qualifications to inherit the position of Xiao Sect's Clan Master.
A month after Xiao Che was born, Xiao Ying suddenly suffered an assassination attempt. Coincidentally, just a few days before that time, in order to save the daughter of the Xia Family, Xiao Ying's profound strength was greatly exhausted. When he encountered that assassination, he could not even bring out half of his true strength, and in the end, he died. His wife, too, died in grief. Under such a huge blow, all of Xiao Lie's hair turned white overnight. Nine months later, Xiao Lingxi was born, and her wife, tormented by the pain of having lost her son for a long time, died in depression one month after Xiao Lingxi was born.
His wife would also leave him for good after he lost his son. It was easy to imagine how Xiao Lie came to this place in those years. In her snow-white hair, there was an indescribable pain, sadness, and hatred.
Even today, Xiao Lie still had not found out who killed Xiao Ying all those years ago.
After that, he placed all his hopes on Xiao Che … But the cruel fact that he was born with profound veins damaged had once again become a bolt out of the blue.
However, facing this hopeless grandson of his, Xiao Lie had never once displayed any disappointment or anger. On the contrary, she was extremely concerned about him, almost to the point of doting on him. Because in his opinion, being born with damaged profound veins meant that fate had been unfair and that he should not be condemned because of such injustice. All these years, he had been constantly thinking of ways to find all kinds of pellets that could repair profound veins, but now that his profound veins was broken, it was as if his life vein had been damaged, so how could it be so easy to repair it?
With such a grandfather, even though Xiao Che was ignored by others and even grew up under their mocking gazes, he still felt that he was lucky.
Looking at Xiao Lie's pale white hair, Xiao Che's gaze gradually condensed … Since the heavens gave me a chance to be reborn, and even gave me two lifetimes' worth of memories, even if it's to make grandfather feel a little more gratified, I still want to live a vigorous and vigorous life! So what if your profound veins is damaged! As long as I find the right medicine, in a short span of three weeks, I can completely restore my profound veins back to normal.
"It's good that you're fine." Seeing his expression, Xiao Lie was finally relieved. He took a glance at the light outside and said: "The time is about up. Che'er, get ready. By the way, do you want to ride, or. A sedan chair? "
If it was Xiao Che from yesterday, he would definitely have answered "sedan chair". Although he was the grandson of an elder, other than his identity, he had nothing else. The difference between him and Xia Qingyue was like heaven and earth. On the way to the wedding, he would undoubtedly encounter countless numbers of fingers pointing at him and endure countless amounts of jealousy and ridicule for pity. If he showed his face in front of others, the taste of it could be imagined. However, the current Xiao Che was smiling slightly: "Riding, of course! Grandfather, don't worry. No matter how noble Xia Qingyue is, she has long been our Xiao Family's daughter-in-law. I will be fair and square and marry her back. I will never lose Grandfather's face. "
Xiao Lie's expression suddenly froze, as if he didn't expect him to say such words. Following which, his face revealed a gentle smile, and he nodded slightly. "Okay."
It was a simple word, but it was filled with the joy that he hadn't heard of in a long time. Xiao Lie walked out of the room and closed the door gently.
The moment Xiao Lie left, Xiao Lingxi immediately stood in front of Xiao Che. Her lips curved upwards, a little unhappily in her eyes: "So it was because I fainted from excitement, causing me to worry for so long. You and Xia Qingyue obviously haven't met each other many times, but it turns out that you have always liked each other so much … That's true, she is the most beautiful woman in our Cloud Flowing City, hmph! "
Xiao Che quickly waved his hand, "How is this possible!? Although Xia Qingyue was very beautiful, Little Aunt was much prettier than her! If I had fainted because of her, then Little Aunt would be by my side every single day. I don't even know how many times in my life I would have fainted. "
"Hee …" Xiao Lingxi's face, which had finally tensed up with great difficulty, immediately collapsed as she smiled sweetly: "I knew you would say such words to make me happy. After all, Xia Qingyue was so beautiful, and was even recognized as the number one genius in Cloud Flowing City. Xia Family was also the number one wealthiest in Cloud Flowing City, so it was unknown just how many people dreamed of taking her as their wife. However, in the end she still married my Little Che. "
As she spoke till here, a proud expression appeared on Xiao Lingxi's face. Following after, the expression in her eyes gradually drifted away, and her voice became softer, "It's just that I feel that it's too fast … Little Che is going to get married soon … "
"Knock knock." The sound of knocking on the door, followed by Xiao Hong's aged and calm voice: "Young Master, the time is right, we should go to Xia Family to escort the bride."
"Ah... "So fast?" Xiao Lingxi took a glance at Xiao Che's attire and immediately became somewhat anxious, "Uncle Hong, please wait a little longer, it's almost done."
After she finished speaking, she had already arrived in front of Xiao Che and a pair of soft and soft clothes were quickly starting to be arranged for him. "This set of clothes is so troublesome, and after what happened just now, it's all messed up again. Stand still for a moment.
A pair of snow-white, delicate hands began to hurriedly smooth the turned up collar and tie back the loose straps … Her movements were very rough, but she was extremely focused. Xiao Che silently looked at her, and his eyes gradually became misty …
He was going to marry Xia Qingyue today, but he was very clear in his heart whether Xia Qingyue was truly willing to marry him or not. If it wasn't for the agreement between his father, Xiao Ying, and Xia Qingyue's father, Xia Hongyi, back then, Xia Qingyue, let alone marry him, he might not even have bothered to spare him even a glance. The only people who were truly good to him in this world were his grandfather Xiao Lie and the Little Aunt Xiao Lingxi in front of him.
When he was young, Xiao Lingxi would stick to Xiao Che like a piece of candy. Wherever he went, Xiao Lingxi would follow him wherever he went. When Xiao Che was ten years old and was confirmed to have damaged her profound veins, it was as if Xiao Lingxi had grown up overnight. She knew the consequences of having damaged her profound veins, and also understood the concept of her identity as a "Little Aunt".
After experiencing Blue Cloud Continent's twenty-four years of "dreams", Xiao Che had an incomparably clear feeling of just how much of a luxury and treasure Xiao Lingxi had given him.
Although Xia Qingyue was about to become his wife, she would only be like the sky's coldest moon;
If he could marry a girl like the Little Aunt, how perfect would that be … This thought uncontrollably appeared in Xiao Che's mind.
After he finished tidying up the complicated wedding dress, Xiao Lingxi heaved a small sigh of relief. She stood up on her tiptoes and stretched out her hands to tidying up the hair on Xiao Che's forehead that was slightly messy. As she stood on her tiptoes, her jade-carving-like tender face and Xiao Che's face were immediately within reach. Her eyes and expression were clearly imprinted with a tender and weak look that only a young girl could possess.
As if possessed by a god, Xiao Che's head suddenly tilted down as her lips lightly touched Xiao Lingxi's pink lips …
