Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

Chapter 115 The Ruthless and Disabled Crown Prince (19)

Lu Liruan felt the change in light through her veil, her mind still not clear, when she heard Ji Shumin's voice: "Go down."

"Your Highness...this is against the rules!"

The wedding attendant's anxious voice could be heard nearby. Lu Liruan couldn't see what Ji Shumin was doing, but she could sense it:

He definitely didn't do anything good.

"Oh! You!"

The matchmaker's footsteps moved closer: "This represents good fortune, how could you tear it?"

Lu Liruan recognized the sound coming from the doorway and remembered the red silk that had blocked the entrance when she entered the house; she had stepped over it.

Lu Liruan didn't understand either; was it probably for the same purpose as a brazier?

Ji Shumin, who was in a wheelchair, was probably stopped because his own legs were fine.

Sure enough, the next moment, Ji Shumin's mocking voice continued, "Auspicious? What auspiciousness is there in killing me?"

"Oh dear... How can you mention the word 'death' on your wedding day?" The matchmaker exclaimed in shock, turning her gaze to the person serving her.

It was discovered that not a single person dared to speak out.

I don't know if they dare not disobey His Highness the Crown Prince in the slightest, or if they've simply gotten used to it.

Lu Liruan analyzed that, based on her first encounter with his demeanor, the people around her must have been tired of hearing about him.

The matchmaker's loud, exaggerated voice sounded lonely and helpless in the room.

"I'll listen to His Highness the Crown Prince," Lu Liruan said.

The matchmaker was already apprehensive. The Crown Prince looked sinister and didn't even smile on his wedding day. Just one glance from him made her heart pound.

Now that the Crown Princess had spoken, the matchmaker hurriedly bowed and left the room, disregarding the remaining etiquette.

On the very first day Ji Shumin moved from the Crown Prince's residence to this courtyard, he ordered all the thresholds of every room to be leveled.

All the steps were turned into ramps, so that it would be easier for people to move around.

Lu Liruan appreciated this action; after all, being comfortable was more important than anything else.

There's no point in being stubborn; those who are inflexible will only suffer in the end...

In Lu Liruan's view, this is also a way for him to accept his current situation.

Many people cannot accept the inevitable changes they will undergo. This mindset will not change the status quo; it will only make them dwell on the past and fall into various negative emotions.

Before even getting to know Ji Shumin, Lu Liruan had already analyzed his personality to some extent.

only……

The sound of a wheelchair approached.

"The Crown Princess is already giving orders to me," he said sarcastically.

Lu Liruan: ...

A faint aroma of wine wafted over, and Ji Shumin was already very close.

Lu Liruan couldn't see and unconsciously moved to the side, but the next moment, Ji Shumin pressed down on her knee: "Why are you hiding?"

"You are now my Crown Princess, what, you won't accept your fate?"

Ji Shumin's slender fingertips lightly touched Lu Liruan's wedding dress, casually tracing the beautiful embroidery: "Wasn't this your own choice?"

"Do you regret it?"

Lu Liruan thought to herself: I haven't said a single word yet, but you've already said everything that you've earned and everything that's wrong.

This is a classic case of "I just did a basic attack, how did you use your ultimate?"

"Why don't you speak?"

"Your Highness, could you please lift my veil?" Lu Liruan sighed; her neck felt like it was about to break...

Ji Shumin snorted softly. He had just been forced to face all sorts of people, each with their own ulterior motives, probing and scrutinizing him, and he was quite annoyed.

Originally, she intended to use this as an excuse to make a fuss, but who knew that her own wife, the Crown Princess, wouldn't even acknowledge her.

Ji Shumin was fully aware of what he had done to himself.

But whether he understood it or not had absolutely nothing to do with whether or not he should do it, or whether or not he should say it…

Lu Liruan remained silent, and the two were silent for a few moments.

Lu Liruan sat there, since she couldn't see anything anyway, until Ji Shumin reached out and lifted the veil.

Unable to adjust to the light for a moment, Lu Liruan's eyes welled up with tears as she looked ahead, her vision blurry, and met Ji Shumin's gaze.

Today, His Highness the Crown Prince is dressed in red, and his face is not dimmed by the bright color; on the contrary, it makes him even more handsome.

At this moment, his brows furrowed slightly. His dark eyes were fixedly scrutinizing Lu Liruan.

Then he saw his newlywed Crown Princess, and a tear slowly rolled down her cheek...

The Crown Princess closed her eyes and slightly raised her chin, as if in a state of detached despair.

"What? Marrying me is causing you such heartache?" Ji Shumin frowned even more deeply.

With a flick of her wrist, the veil slammed against the wall.

Because it was made of thin fabric, it did not make a sound.

Lu Liruan had her eyes closed and didn't see what was happening. Xiao Xizi, who was following behind, had already collapsed to her knees.

Those who came to serve him had long heard of the Crown Prince's current reputation for being gloomy and tyrannical.

Normally, no one else is allowed to enter this courtyard, but today is the Crown Prince's wedding day, and they have been ordered to serve the Crown Princess.

As soon as they saw the attendants beside the Crown Prince kneel down, they all quickly followed suit and knelt down in unison.

The scene was spectacular, and Lu Liruan saw this when she opened her eyes again.

Feeling completely bewildered, she looked left and right... Ji Shumin, seeing this, raised his hand and pinched her chin, forcing her to look only at him.

Ji Shumin used some force as his cool fingertips brushed against the wet tear stains.

"Snap." A crisp sound.

"You're hurting me." Lu Liruan slapped his hand aside.

I really don't know what's wrong with His Highness the Crown Prince.

Lu Liruan touched the spot where he had pinched her earlier; it was still throbbing slightly.

“You…” Ji Shumin raised an eyebrow.

"I haven't even said anything yet, and you're already putting on a whole show. The lights in this room are too bright; they're making my eyes water. Don't you have any use for your eight hundred schemes?" Lu Liruan said irritably.

I was already feeling sore and achy from sitting here all afternoon.

Although Lu Liruan had thought before her marriage that the Crown Prince might cause trouble somewhere.

But I never expected it to happen so suddenly, so quickly, and so without giving anyone any time to prepare...

The people kneeling behind them were completely silent, as if there were no other living beings in the room besides the two of them.

Who dares to speak up?

On their wedding day, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were at odds—this was a royal secret!

Everyone hunched their shoulders, afraid of being seen as the one who sticks out.

To everyone's surprise, the expected rage from the Crown Prince did not materialize; instead, a rather pleasant chuckle was heard.

Ji Shumin seemed amused by Lu Liruan's words: "Does the Crown Princess really think I have eight hundred schemes in my heart?"

Lu Liruan: ...

Your smile makes me wonder if I just complimented you, but honestly, I really didn't...
