Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 503 - Can You Feel It?

In the wedding hall, Sheng Li was shocked to see the Emperor, the Empress, and the Consorts. His three Elder Brothers, their wives, and Weng Yu were also present.

Sheng Li greeted them and looked at Lei Wanxi, who shook his head. The First Prince came towards Sheng Li and informed him that he was the one who called everyone.

"A marriage is empty without the blessings of the Elders and the Family," Sheng Li heard the words of Han Wenji and nodded his head. "You should have told me. I was not going to stop you from doing marriage for the second time," Han Wenji stated.

"Forgive me, Father," Sheng Li apologized and glanced at Deng Hui. She was the main reason that he refrained from inviting his own family.

The Priest told the Crown Prince to come forward at the family altar and also told to bring the bride. Sheng Li stood in front of the Jade Emperor idol and looked towards the door for Ying Lili to come. After five minutes, Ying Lili entered the wedding hall. Sheng Li felt how his heart started to beat upon seeing Ying Lili. He was already married to her, but this feeling was special.

Ying Lili, on the other hand, saw Sheng Li through the red veil over her face. With each step, her heart felt contended. She halted and stood by Sheng Li.

The Priest handed them the wine glasses, and the ceremony started with giving three bows. The first was to Heaven and Earth; the second to their elderly, and the third bow was for each other by kneeling down and bowing. While doing so, both Sheng Li and Ying Lili took their respective vows in their heads for each other.

The Priest took the wine glasses from them. Court Lady Xu and the four maidservants came forward to take Ying Lili to the wedding bed-chamber while Sheng Li had to attend the banquet. It was surprising for him that the First Prince had also prepared for all this.

The Emperor and his wives after eating with the Crown Prince left for the Imperial Palace while the Princes stayed behind and the three Princesses too.

"I cannot drink wine today," Sheng Li told Rong Zemin, who laughed a little.

"Brother, take one sip for us," requested Rong Zemin. Sheng Li could not refuse him and took a sip of the wine. Sheng Li desperately wanted to leave, but Lei Wanxi stopped him.

"Brother, it is wrong to leave the banquet in the middle. You have an entire night with Sister Lili," Lei Wanxi stated and grinned. "At least give an hour to your lovely Brothers," he stated.

"I cannot let her wait for me. She is also hungry. Can't you understand today's situation?" Sheng Li asked Lei Wanxi.

"Last time, Brother Sheng was not ready to go to the Bridal Chamber. It is a great change in Brother Sheng," Yongzheng remarked and forwarded the wine cup to Sheng Li. Lei Wanxi stepped back while Sheng Li took the cup from Prince Yongzheng. He sipped the wine and put it down on the table.

"You all shall enjoy the meals. I am leaving," Sheng Li asserted and walked away.

He happily went towards the bridal chamber. As he reached outside the chamber he felt nervous, and he did not know the reason behind it. The maidservants bowed in front of him. Sheng Li walked in, and with his step towards the bridal chamber, his heart skipped a beat. He saw Ying Lili was on the bed, waiting for him. He smelled the scented incense sticks, probably, the aphrodisiac incense sticks, to increase his sexual urges.

"Your Highness, please pick the veil of the Crown Princess with this stick and then--"

"I know, Court Lady Xu. Leave and no one should be outside the bridal chamber today. Keep this in mind," Sheng Li sternly said. Court Lady Xu bowed and took the steps backward till she reached the door and walked out. The maidservants closed the door, and upon the instructions of Court Lady Xu, they left the sight.

Sheng Li picked the wooden stick on which some beautiful carvings were done. He slowly moved it towards Ying Lili's veil and gently removed it from her face. Sheng Li was mesmerized to see her. Every day he used to get, but today it was something more.

Ying Lili had lowered her eyes, and there was a tiny smile on her lips. Sheng Li's heart thumped crazily against his chest. He saw how beautifully she got ready today. Even the make-up was perfect. Her long eyelashes, arched brows, and red lips were enough to enchant him.

"How long are you going to stare at me?" Finally, Ying Lili spoke, and it brought him out of his thoughts.

Sheng Li passed her smile. "I do not know," he answered. He sat beside her and saw the table on which wedding cups were placed, tied with a red string. He carefully picked them up and handed one to Ying Lili.

"Just like this red string, our hearts and souls are bound with each other now," Sheng Li told Ying Lili, who finally lifted her eyes and looked into his eyes. "You are looking pretty. No… today you are looking prettier than the other days," Sheng Li told Ying Lili, who smiled and looked at the wine cups. They brought the wine cups closer to their mouths and drank that at the same time.

Sheng Li took it from her and put it on the table. "Come! Let's have dinner first," Sheng Li grasped the hand of Ying Lili. He brought it closer to his lips and kissed her knuckles. "Your scent is driving me crazy," Sheng Li said while inhaling the perfume on her hand.

"You always say this," Ying Lili stated. Sheng Li pulled her up along with him and made her sit around the table on a chair.

He leaned down, closer to her ear, and whispered, "But today it's special, Lili." He could not help but kiss her earlobe.

Ying Lili closed her eyes. "I will control a little more until the dinner," He whispered and leaned back. Pulling the chair out for himself, he sat on it and handed the chopsticks to Ying Lili, who took it. The two started to eat and finished soon.

Sheng Li brought Ying Lili towards the bed which, was decorated in red color. The bedsheet, the pillows, and the curtains surrounding the bedpost were all in red color.

Ying Lili sat on the mattress when she saw that Sheng Li was on his knees. He lifted her skirt and removed the shoes she had worn, followed by the socks. His fingers touched her feet, and she curled her toes because of Sheng Li's cold touch.

Sheng Li stood up and sat on the mattress. He removed his shoes and socks and peered at Ying Lili, who was smiling at him. "Will you only stare at me? Even at the dinner table, you were eating less but staring at me more," Ying Lili asserted and rested her hand on his chest.

"What can I do? My mind and heart were somewhere else," Sheng Li replied.

"Somewhere else? Where?" Ying Lili intentionally asked.

"Don't you know?" Sheng Li asked her back.

Ying Lili shook her head.

"Playing with me?" Sheng Li grinned at her.

"No," Ying Lili refused while suppressing her giggle.

Sheng Li could not wait any longer and leaned down to kiss her. As he kissed her, Ying Lili closed her eyes to feel it fully; wanted to immerse into it fully. Sheng Li brought her hand on his left chest while moving his lips synchronously with her. They pulled back as their foreheads touched each other.

"Can you feel it?" He asked her.

"Hmm." She opened her eyes and gazed at him. "Mine is beating the same way," Ying Lili stated. "It's a wonderful and an ecstatic feeling," she affirmed. New ᴄhapters are published on No(v)elFire.net

Sheng Li again brought Ying Lili's hand near his mouth. He kissed her fingers individually while peering at Ying Lili. She yanked his hand away and pulled him closer for a kiss. Sheng Li dominated the kiss and slurped his tongue in her mouth, yearning for a moan from her. Their tongues danced synchronously with each other, both fighting for dominance. Sheng Li had opened the knot of her dress and slowly pushed it down her shoulders.

They pulled away from each other, gasping for air.. "I Love you, Lili."
