Chapter 1306: Wedding Night
There were men guarding on the outside of the closed door.
Madam Sikong put her hand on the doork.n.o.b and turned her head to instruct Uncle Foo gravely. “I will go in alone to check things out. You all continue guarding this place. Don’t allow even a single fly to enter, or my Sikong’s reputation and integrity might be compromised.”
Uncle Foo nodded so vigorously that his head nearly dropped onto the ground. “Don’t worry, Madam, I won’t let anyone in!”
Madam Sikong pushed open the door and entered.
…
The windows to the room were completely closed. Madam Sikong was greeted by an overpowering smell the moment she entered.
Sikong Heng was sitting on the huge bed which was in a mess. His smooth, handsome back was propped lazily against the head of the bed, with one long leg stretched out while the other was bent at the knee. An expensive watch was wrapped around the wrist of his slender hand, a cigarette clasped between his long fingers.
He was already dressed. The clothes of the obsessively clean Doctor Sikong would always be ironed perfectly smooth. But the white s.h.i.+rt and black pants he had on now were completely wrinkled. His white s.h.i.+rt wasn’t even tucked into his pants, while his black belt was left dangling off the side of the bed with the buckle drooping onto the floor.
“Aiya Sikong, my dear son. Why did such an unfortunate thing happen to you?”
Madam Sikong rushed up and gazed at Sikong Heng with deep concern. “Sikong, tell Mom now. Did that rapist hurt you? Ahh, what are we to do now? You’ve lost your virginity. How am I to account to the Young Mistress of the Bai Family?
“Never mind, I think the Young Mistress of the Bai Family doesn’t like you anyway. You can’t handle her. I don’t request much of you. Just marry that rapist. Tell me honestly, that rapist is a woman and not a man, right?”
“…”
In the face of the barrage of questions from his mother, Sikong Heng’s head ached tremendously. He lifted his lids and glanced at his mother before getting off the bed.
Madam Sikong tugged at his sleeve. “Sikong, now that things have come to this, just take it in stride. You already belong to this rapist. How can that vicious criminal be so heartless, to dump you after raping you?
“Don’t worry, I have already a.s.signed some people to look at the surveillance records of the hotel and the roads outside. We will definitely capture that rapist back for you.
“But…” Madam Sikong twisted her hands and asked softly in a voice full of antic.i.p.ation. “Did you two use protection just now? I wonder if she will get pregnant? Will I be carrying a little baby soon?”
“Mom!”
Sikong Heng halted her eager musings in a low and annoyed voice.
Startled, Madam Sikong pursed her lips and muttered grumpily. “Uncle Foo was already carrying his grandson last month. Those friends I play cards with are always boasting about their grandchildren. I am the only one who has nothing. Now that you finally lost your virginity, you still don’t allow me to voice my hopes. What sins have I committed in my past life to beget such a son like you!”
“…”
Sikong Heng pretended not to hear her and extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray. He picked up the belt with his long slender fingers and nimbly buckled it around his waist, before turning to leave.
“Boss.” His subordinate respectfully followed behind him.
Sikong Heng walked briskly down the corridor, his clear voice full of a chilly vibe. “Pa.s.s down my command. From now on, put in all efforts to capture the Black Rose. Don’t hurt her. I want her captured alive and delivered to me.”
“Yes.” The subordinate nodded.
The doors to the elevator opened and Sikong Heng stepped in.
The elevator door closed again.
Sikong Heng leaned against the elevator wall and tucked one hand into his pants pocket. His brows furrowed. That woman left just like that after ravis.h.i.+ng him.
Didn’t she steal the man in black because she wished to create a new medical vaccine?
But it would be extremely difficult.
He didn’t believe she had the ability!
His large hands hanging by the side of his body slowly clenched into fists as he planned on how to catch her. She had a tattoo and would not be able to escape his clutches.
No one knew that the Black Rose had a tattoo of a coldly seductive black rose on her body. And she had actually tattooed that black rose on her…
Sikong Heng slammed his eyes shut as his Adam’s apple started to quiver again. He recalled how she had whispered close to his ear. “Do you like my… rose?”
His abdomen area went numb as an intense sensation surged throughout his body.
Shameless!
She was truly shameless!
He had to capture her!
…
Half a month later.
Sikong Heng’s pristine, handsome face was completely black. This was because, since that night, the Black Rose had disappeared without a trace. It was as if in this entire world, there was never such a person.
“Boss.” His subordinate hurried over at this point.
“Speak.”
The subordinate wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. “We received the latest news that the Black Rose has successfully come up with a new vaccine. The entire medical world is shaken.”
Sikong Heng’s icy black pupils narrowed. How did she manage to come up with a new vaccine within such a short period of time?
Yes, he had truly underestimated her previously.
Hot blood coursed through his veins. Whenever he shut his eyes, the image of her pus.h.i.+ng her little tongue toward him to kiss him would come to mind. And… at the moment of penetration, her cold eyes had suddenly misted over with a dewy sheen from the pain. She had looked down at him in a pitiful manner, totally melting his heart.
He never forgot that moment.
It was as if he couldn’t forget.
A proud and arrogant man, he never imagined meeting a woman who was his match in the medical field. He was truly shocked.
The desire to find her only intensified.
Black Rose.
He silently mulled over the name.
…
Country A, the Palace.
Today was the grand wedding of Lu Yeming and Dongfang Ruoli.
Dongfang Ruoli had woken very early to do her makeup, while Lu Yeming stood before a floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the expanse of red peas growing behind.
At this moment, Fan Men entered. “My Lord, I just received news that today is the coronation of President Jun Xiqing. The entire Country Z will be celebrating.”
Lu Yeming’s profound, slanted eyes flashed. What a coincidence. She was holding her coronation on the very same day as his grand wedding. Both their lives have resumed their original course and there was no longer any cause for concern.
“Got it,” he answered blandly.
The auspicious hour for the wedding ceremony had arrived. The groom retrieved his bride, and the two of them carried out the traditional wedding rites.
The entire Palace was immersed in the joy of the wedding celebrations.
Thereafter, Lu Yeming personally held up Dongfang Ruoli’s hand and led her step-by-step up to the royal platform. From this moment onwards, Dongfang Ruoli had officially become the Empress of Country A, a benevolent and maternal figure to all.
That night, the new bride, Dongfang Ruoli, was escorted to their new bedroom to await the long-antic.i.p.ated wedding night.
A maid’s voice sounded out from outside the door. “Your Highness.”
Dongfang Ruoli had already bathed and was wearing a flimsy red gauze dress, her long, silky hair spilling down her shoulders. It was apparent that she was trying to emulate… Tang Mo’er, who had previously worn a similar red gauze dress and had her hair worn down the same way.
The more she thought about what was about to happen, the more Dongfang Ruoli’s heart raced. She was going all out to win this wedding night.
