[In 3 days]
On the day of the wedding, I was in my room Xu Liqin was helping me with the dress I wear.
" Xu Xiang,"
I looked at her and was surprised. This was the first time she has ever called my name not miss. No matter how much I tell her to call me my name she never does.
" I will miss you,"
I patted her in her head.
" I will miss you too, take care of my mother,"
" Okay, I will,'
My mother comes inside.
" Mom,"
" Xu Liqin will follow you,"
" What?"
" You can't go to a strange place with no one you know is around, if Xu Liqin comes with you then you will find someone to talk to,"
Xu Liqin looks happy but I was against it. Who will take care of my mother? Is it that beast of a man they call my father?
" Mom, she can't,"
" Why not?"
"She has to stay to take care of you,"
My mother looked at me with an eye that seems caring.
" Why will she take care of me? My mind won't rest if I let only you go, if she goes with you then I will be able to calm down,"
" But-,"
She interrupted me before I finish speaking
" No, but, quickly prepare before your father comes in,"
" Okay,"
[A few minutes later]
I was done with dressing and I entered the carriage. I told my mom bye. I look back hoping that maybe I could see Chen You but he didn't come.
[A few hours later]
We arrived in the kingdom and I came down from the carriage. People were there welcoming me. I smile at them. I did not even know who I am marrying.
They told me to wait for him in a room.
" Xu Liqin, why do they want me to go to the room?" I whispered to her
" It is probably to consummate your marriage,"
I looked at her shocked.
" You should not be surprised because in every marriage you do that,"
A man looked at us.
" Please, who is she?" he pointed at Xu Liqin
" She is my maid who works for me,"
" Well if she is the one, let her go to the maid quarter so that I could take you to your room,"
I looked at Xu Liqin.
" Okay, I will be leaving,"
She left.
He took me there and I entered inside. No one was there.
I breathe a sigh of relief. I am so hungry, I didn't even get to eat this morning before I leave.
A door was opened and I looked up and saw a handsome man.
Who is he? He is very handsome but of course Chen You is more handsome than him. He was tall, he has light skin.
