Zhan's pov :

"Bring those flowers"
"The white candles..."
"It's not white wine- Bring the Red one"

I was looking here and there only dumbfounded. What's going on?
The servants are preparing for some celebration as much as I can understand. But no one is involving me. I asked a few maids what the occasion was. No answer.

So now i am minding my business, which means preparing the art piece i was asked to do. It was the art of peonies.
I just don’t understand what goes on in their mind to give me these works.

Zhang as usual watching over me.
Standing tall with his obnoxious appearance.

"Can't you wear anything else?"
"Why?  What’s wrong in this?"
"Dude... You are always wearing black. It’s obnoxious. It gives me bad vibes. Don't you feel that you should try other colours also?"
"I like this colour. And it looks professional."
I sighed. It's useless to talk further with him.

"By the way Zhang... What’s the occasion?"
For a second i saw a glint of anxiousness in his eyes, like a dread. But it was only for seconds then it was gone.
"You will know"
"When"
"At the ceremony"
Now i got really angry. This guy is too much.

He went from there leaving me cursing at him.

After two hours a maid came
"Mother, you should head inside. It's time for you to get ready."
Now my mind got fired up.

"How many times i have to say? Don’t call me that. Huh!!!" i shouted.
She just bowed "please head inside or Master would be angry"

No one even listens to me in this house. In anger I threw the paint brushes and stormed out from there.

Inside my room, more than 14 people were waiting for me.
I huffed "Let's get ready"

"Oh my G... Mother, you look beautiful" the maids were crying - adorning my face..

 Mother, you look beautiful" the maids were crying - adorning my face

What's there to cry?
Like seriously!
I am feeling dumb.. In this dress..

"Is it necessary to wear this?"
"You look like the fairy"
I tuned off my ears - not wanting to hear more.

At first they didn’t even like me, some of them treated me less than a servant. Now they are behaving like i am the Supreme. But i just want to go from here. The first chance I am getting I will run away.

"Mother, It's time." two maids came to take me.
"Time for what?"
They didn’t answer me.
Outside a palanquin was waiting for me - with lots of people surrounding the area, the whole crowd was cheerful : throwing flowers.
It looked like a festival.

I was stunned.
From where did these many people come?
Where are we going?
I turned around to ask those two maids but they took me inside the palanquin, not listening to me.

"No....no..listen to me....what's going on? Where are you taking me? No..i Won't go?" i kept shouting but no one listened. They forced me inside the ride.

Throughout the whole path, I screamed loudly but no one listened to me.. Everyone was celebrating, some were singing, some were playing drums, some were dancing. It was a whole mess.
They avoided my screams like I avoid the dead cockroaches in the road.

The maids were laughing.
I started crying at one point.
Why was no one helping me?

At some distance the palanquin stopped. This means we have reached.
With fear in my system, i looked out.
It was beautiful.
Those large stairs were covered in flowers, ancient music was playing in the background. The sky was bombered with flower cannons.

A hand approached me.
I looked up to see Zhang standing there in a beautiful hanfu.
"Let's go"
"Where?" i whispered.
"To up there" he pointed at the top of the stairs.
"No..I won't go"
"Stop resisting. Come with me silently or He will drag you. He is already impatient."

Even if he doesn’t speak clearly, I could understand 'he' meant Master.

With hesitance, i took his hand.
He guided me to the top.
The people were cheering so loudly.
But I didn’t understand for what?

"Zhang?"
"Yes"
"What’s going on?"
"You will see soon"

He stopped and forwarded me towards Master.
I was amazed with with beauty.
He is the epitome of handsomeness.
So perfect.
I was drooling at his sharp jaw.

He stretched his hand for me to take

He stretched his hand for me to take.

"You look beautiful, my bride"
"What?"
"Today is our wedding "

What!?
