Inside the courtyard, only Sikong Jing and Su Yuexi remained.
The cold wind blew gently, and although their wedding tonight was simple, it was also warm—yet it ended up in this current state.
Sikong Jing felt somewhat guilty, not because he had crippled Su Yang, even if given another chance he would do the same.
His guilt stemmed solely from causing Su Yuexi distress.
"Yuexi, being able to be married off by the Lord of Yunzhou proves that I am not an ordinary person. Trust me, I will win in ten days," Sikong Jing said, not knowing how else to comfort her.
He actually wanted to say that he was the Invincible God General spoken of in legends of the Great Shang Dynasty.
But he held his tongue at the last moment.
Knowing his true identity would benefit no one.
