On the mural, a girl was smiling sweetly. On the table was a stack of portraits of men. She picked one up. There were still many below it.
Su Yanyu looked at the next mural and said, “He appeared. From the moment she saw him, she knew that if she had to choose someone to spend the rest of her life with, it would be him. She took his portrait and handed it to her mother happily.”
On the mural, the girl had already chosen a portrait and handed it to her mother. She lowered her head and smiled shyly. 𝑛𝔬𝑽𝓮𝒍𝑵𝐞xt.𝑐𝑶𝓂
Next, it was time for the two families to meet. The girl hid in the back hall and glanced at the person she liked behind the screen.
Looking at the mural, Su Yanyu felt as if he was in that place and had seen the shyness on the girl’s face with his own eyes.
Su Yanyu’s mood seemed to be affected as he watched the murals.
They began to prepare for the wedding. The family was jubilant. Her parents and relatives were helping to buy dowry. The girl was very happy. The boxes of dowry filled the entire house. Gold, silver, and jewelry shone. The girl had a smile on her face.
In the red bridal sedan, the girl entered the man’s mansion. On the red wedding bed, the girl sat there and waited for her husband to come.
Su Yanyu could feel that kind of excitement. He opened his eyes and realized that he was actually the person in the mural.
He was wearing wedding clothes. As far as the eye could see, there was red color. His heart beat uncontrollably fast, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He was filled with anticipation for the future.
There was a footstep approaching. Su Yanyu took a deep breath.
A hand lifted the red veil. However, what she saw was her husband’s cold expression.
The joy in her heart seemed to have been splashed with a basin of cold water. Uneasiness and trepidation occupied her heart. Even her hands could not help but grab the wedding clothes tightly.
“I don’t like you. My family forced me to marry you. I don’t want to lie to you. My parents like your generous dowry, but I don’t like it. 1’11 bring the person 1 love back home. I hope you won’t make things difficult for her.”
The man’s voice was extremely cold. Su Yanyu looked into his eyes in a daze. From his eyes, he saw a frightened girl. She was uneasy, afraid, and did not know what to do.
Su Yanyu felt extremely uncomfortable. He did not know why he entered the life of the woman in the tomb. He could not get out. He was feeling everything the woman felt.
Su Yanyu knew that he was definitely bewitched, but he did not know how to get out.
After saying that, the man took off his wedding clothes and climbed into the bed to sleep.
As for Su Yanyu, he felt a chill run down his spine. His hope for the future had been extinguished by the man’s coldness. At this moment, his heart was down and heavy.
Tears fell silently. She missed home and her parents. She felt aggrieved. She did not know what she had done wrong to deserve this. If he did not like her, why didn’t he say so earlier?
The man she was looking forward to had ruined her life.
After an unknown period of time, Su Yanyu stood up numbly. He took off the headdress, wiped off his exquisite makeup, and slowly walked back to the bed to lie down. The wedding night passed just like that.
The next day, when he went to greet his in-laws, Su Yanyu felt dizzy. His in-laws said something auspicious, but the old nanny beside his mother-in-law whispered into her mother-in-law’s ear, “Madam, Young Master and Madam didn’t consummate their marriage.”
Su Yanyu heard it, but his mother-in-law smiled and said to her, “1 hope you can love each other and grow old together.”
Su Yanyu felt very numb, as if he was trapped in an invisible cage.
Even his in-laws’ blessings were extremely fake.
Su Yanyu only wanted to go back and rest. He was too tired, making him want to sleep for a few days.
However, he did not have the chance because he heard a thud. The man knelt down and said, “Father, Mother, now that 1 married the woman you wanted me to marry, can 1 bring back the girl 1 really like now?”
Su Yanyu felt his head swell and tears fell drop by drop. He felt suffocated.
He knew that this was what the woman in the tomb had experienced in her life. Now, he was just trapped in her illusion and experiencing everything she had experienced. The more pain the innocent girl suffered, the more pain he would suffer.
When his in-laws saw him crying, they said some twisted logic like it was only right for men to have concubines.
Su Yanyu felt an extreme headache. His vision darkened and he lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, the man had already brought his beloved back. He said coldly, “We’ll mind our own business. If you feel aggrieved, you can leave. It’s impossible between us. I only have her in my heart. 1 don’t want to lie to you.” Su Yanyu felt a lump in his throat. He had too many things to say, but he did not say anything.
Su Yanyu was so angry that he wanted to curse. What kind of a scum this man was? He was a scum, but he still acted like he was in the right. What did he mean by not wanting to lie to her? If he really didn’t want to lie, then he shouldn’t have married her.
He hated such people the most. They coveted many things, but they were unwilling to admit their greed.
Su Yanyu wanted to curse, but he couldn’t because the girl was timid and taciturn by nature. She endured all the grievances.
She stayed in the courtyard alone while the man and the concubine stayed together.
The girl was forced to grow up and be in charge of the household. She said that since she was the madam, she should manage the family well. However, the man was a spendthrift, so the girl could only take out her own money to support the family.
She never complained, as if she had accepted her fate.
Su Yanyu felt extremely uncomfortable, and his anger was about to explode. For countless times, the girl wanted to cry but she forced it down. This feeling made Su Yanyu depressed.
How long did he have to live like this? He couldn’t take it anymore.
Su Yanyu was depressed to the point of numbness as he watched the girl’s life. He experienced it himself how the girl turned from a young girl into a woman. Her in-laws had already passed away, and her husband and his concubine had children. The man was still cold and treated her as if she did not exist. He lived in the same courtyard as the concubine..
