264 Are You Ready, Wife? (1/2)

Watching as her husband pranced around her, Mingyue did not know how to react.

It took Yang Yun one night to register that he was going to become a father. The next morning he woke up, Yang Yun started to treat Mingyue more careful. It was as if his wife was made of porcelain, and she was going to break soon.

”You don't have to act too careful,” Mingyue said.

”Didn't they said that the first three months were crucial for expecting mother?”

Mingyue went forward and put her hand on Yang Yun's mouth. Then, she looked around. Once she was sure that there was nobody around, Mingyue let out a relieved sigh.

”Don't say it out loud. Didn't we agree to keep this a secret?”

Yang Yun could only smile helplessly.

A few days ago, Mingyue had made her decision to keep her pregnancy a secret from her adoptive parents and her sister. In a few days, the two of them will make a trip to the mountain to open a portal for them to return to Da Cheng.

Mingyue knew how much the Lin's family loved and cared about her. In the end, Mingyue chose not to say a word to them because she knew that they would only worry.

”The reception will begin soon,” Mingyue said as she glanced at the clock. ”I should go to my parents and help them to greet the guests. You should go and get to Brother Xue's side.”

Yang Yun nodded. ”Mingyue, if it gets too tired, don't forget to take a break.”

”Un, I know,” Mingyue smiled. She kissed her husband on his cheek and turned around. In just a few steps, Mingyue paused and turned around.

”What's wrong?” Yang Yun asked. He closed the distance between them and held her hand.

”Nothing,” Mingyue shook her head. ”I forgot to tell you that you look good.”

Yang Yun laughed. This was not the first time that he had to wear something formal as suit and tie. The first time Xue Yi Ming had brought him to the Lin's residence to let him meet Mingyue, Yang Yun was forced to wear something similar as well.

”Well, you look beautiful, too,” he complimented. He scanned his eyes on the gold rose dress on Mingyue's body and smiled. Suddenly, he thought that perhaps, he should not let her go out and greet the guests.

”Well, I'm going,” Mingyue said before Yang Yun could voice out his mind. In the end, Yang Yun could only watch as his wife entered the hall to look for her parents.

…

When Mingyue entered the hall, she found her father at the corner of the room, entertaining a few military officials, while her mother was at a table, talking to a few of her friends. Once her mother saw her, she gestured Mingyue to come over before she introduced Mingyue to her friends.

As her mother continued her conversation with her friends, Mingyue took the chance to look around. Mingyue thought that the wedding ceremony in this world was fascinating. However, some customs were a bit similar to the one from her world as well.

Though the wedding ceremony in this world was lively, it was not as loud as the wedding in Da Cheng. On her wedding day, the neighbors and family members gathered around to help with the preparation. Even Yang Yun's mother had personally cooked a dish. However, in this world, her parents hired caterers!

The food prepared by the caterers looked tasty and lavish. Mingyue thought that some of the foods here were worthy of being served in the palace.
