Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: You Are My Wife

Daybreak.

Soft light filtered through the window screen, illuminating Qin Tianxuan’s handsome face.

His arm subconsciously reached out to his right for an embrace, but he found only empty space.

He snapped awake!

Qin Tianxuan sat up with a jolt.

His gaze wavered. He rubbed his head, trying to recall the events of last night.

Only a few blurry fragments remained.

But he was certain—he had been with Weiwei!

They had consummated their marriage!

Qin Tianxuan smacked his forehead and gave a wry smile.

”I drank too much, way too much! I shouldn’t have... Ugh!”

He threw back the covers and was immediately greeted by the sight of a crimson blossom on the sheets.

Qin Tianxuan’s handsome face flushed red.

’Looks like I was a little wild last night!’

He quickly gathered the bedsheet, then took a shower and changed his clothes.

The situation was now a bit awkward.

No, it was very awkward.

Once he had composed himself, Qin Tianxuan went to the room next door and knocked softly.

After a long pause, a soft voice came from inside. ”I... I’m not feeling well. You... you don’t need to worry about me. If you have things to do, go do them. I’ll be returning to Su City soon. We can... talk then.”

Qin Tianxuan took a deep breath and pushed the door open, entering directly.

Inside, Han Biwei, who was frantically changing her clothes, grew furious out of shame and embarrassment. ”What... what are you doing coming in here?”

Qin Tianxuan’s expression gradually grew resolute.

”Weiwei, my original plan was to wait until Niannian’s situation stabilized, then give up my status as your husband. After all, we only had a sham marriage for the sake of our child.”

Han Biwei’s face was as red as an apple. ”D-don’t say any more.”

Qin Tianxuan walked right up to her and took her hand. ”But things are different now. We are truly husband and wife. You are my wife!”

Ah!

’So direct?’

Han Biwei tried to say something, but Qin Tianxuan didn’t give her the chance. ”I’m not going to beat around the bush with useless words. From now on, I am your husband, and Niannian is our daughter. I will make it up to you with a real wedding. And don’t talk about losing your memory! That memory doesn’t matter!”

Han Biwei was at a complete loss.

Qin Tianxuan gently hugged her. ”I have to admit something to you. There’s a place in my heart that will always belong to Shuanghua. If you mind, all I can say is I’m sorry.”

”I... I don’t mind!” Han Biwei blurted out.

Qin Tianxuan, who had been incredibly nervous, was now overjoyed.

He let go of her and watched, speechless, as she shyly burrowed under the covers. He turned around. ”Someone, attend me!”

Lingsu appeared, looking at the scene in astonishment.

Qin Tianxuan pulled back the covers and scooped Han Biwei up in his arms.

Ignoring her struggles, he said in a deep voice, ”Lingsu, inform everyone that I have formally decided to be wedded to Weiwei. Have Prince select an auspicious date. We will hold a proper wedding ceremony when we return.”

At this, he took out his wallet and pulled out all the cards inside.

”I want all my assets re-evaluated as soon as possible, and everything put under Han Biwei’s and Niannian’s names!”

”Well, there is a portion of my assets specifically reserved for Ah Xue. Keep that separate.”

Lingsu was too shocked to speak.

She had assumed that with Han Biwei’s memory loss, her relationship with the Master would take a long time to mend.

She never expected their relationship to suddenly advance by leaps and bounds!

Wait!

’Could it be that the Master drank too much last night, and then...’

Lingsu’s face turned red as well.

”Lingsu, what are you spacing out for?” Qin Tianxuan frowned.

Lingsu snapped back to her senses and hurriedly answered with a resounding ”Yes!”

”Remember this!” Qin Tianxuan said, ruffling Han Biwei’s hair. ”From now on, this woman is Empress Ye Di!”

From now on!

This woman is Empress Ye Di!

These words instantly spread throughout the Five Palaces and Nine Armies.

That very morning, all the leaders of the Five Palaces and Nine Armies, led by Wutian, came joyfully to the villa to congratulate the Master and his new wife.

Han Biwei felt strange and a little lost, unable to put her feelings into words.

But Qin Tianxuan was being incredibly serious. He even invited Han Qian Jun and Jiang Wan Jun over.

He explained the whole situation to the old couple.

The old couple were so happy they nearly fainted.

Qin Tianxuan then formally paid his respects to his two elders again.

This kept them busy until the evening of the next day.

Once everything was settled, just as Qin Tianxuan was thinking about the wedding ceremony, someone from the Intelligence Hall came in and reported in a low voice, ”The Southern Domain’s Heaven-Suppressing King, Cang Bufan of the Canglan Family, has arrived quietly in Jin City by private jet. He requests an immediate audience with you, Master!”

’The Heaven-Suppressing King?’

There had been a misunderstanding in the past, and he had once challenged Qin Tianxuan face-to-face, only to suffer a crushing defeat.

But the misunderstanding was later cleared up, and Qin Tianxuan had even funded the declining Canglan Family. Their relationship was now quite good.

”Show him to the back garden and prepare a pot of fragrant tea.”

In the back garden, under the setting sun, the Heaven-Suppressing King, Cang Bufan, approached with a grim expression.

”Brother Bufan, you’ve come all this way, looking so travel-worn. What brings you here?” Qin Tianxuan asked, his face beaming and his tone teasing.

The Heaven-Suppressing King, Cang Bufan, was taken aback.

’How has the Night Emperor become a completely different person?’

In the past, he always had a grim, chilling aura about him.

But now?

Qin Tianxuan seemed several years younger, absolutely glowing with vitality!

The Heaven-Suppressing King Cang Bufan’s own mood lightened considerably. He walked over with a loud laugh. ”Master, did you take an Immortal Pill or something? You’re practically bursting with youthful energy.”

Qin Tianxuan handed him a cup of fragrant tea and smiled. ”Ha, ’bursting with youthful energy,’ you say? I suppose I must have been pretty lifeless before.”

Cang Bufan chuckled. ”Well, that first time I foolishly challenged you, the impression you gave off was bone-chillingly cold!”

Qin Tianxuan roared with laughter.

The two drank a cup of tea, and the atmosphere between them grew a little warmer.

”Brother Bufan, you came in such a hurry. It must be about the Martial Arts Arena challenge, right?”

The Heaven-Suppressing King, Cang Bufan, sighed. ”I came in secret. I’m facing a lot of resistance from the family. The Canglan Family only escaped its predicament thanks to your funding, but damn it all, those old bastards are all betting on Luo Qilin!”

Qin Tianxuan was in an excellent mood, so he paid it no mind. ”It doesn’t matter. As long as you, Brother Bufan, stand with me, nothing will happen to the Canglan Family.”

This was a promise.

A promise from the Night Emperor!

The weight in Cang Bufan’s heart was lifted.

He stood up and thanked him solemnly, then said in a low, serious voice, ”There are two things I must tell you!”
