The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 817 - 784 Wedding Banquet (2)

"I knew it long before. You must have really put them in their place before," Xiao Muli said dotingly as he tapped Situ Xin’s nose.

"Hmph. Who do they think they are, trying to scheme against me? Am I that easy to manipulate?" Situ Xin pouted.

Seeing Situ Xin’s childish demeanor made Xiao Muli’s heart itch. He wished he could just hold Situ Xin tightly in his arms right then, as he was seriously unsatisfied. After all, the first time they were intimate due to an aphrodisiac, he finally tasted the forbidden fruit.

But he never expected to be so potent; he hit the bullseye on the first try. Just when he had tasted the forbidden fruit, he was forced to switch to a vegetarian diet again. Now, whenever he was with Situ Xin, his body reacted, but given Situ Xin’s current physical condition, he had to endure it.

As soon as the newlyweds Situ Xin and Xiao Muli showed up, the group of people who got along well with Xiao Muli started to tease: "Look, the bride and groom have finally come out. We were just saying that normally, one would think the groom is too eager for the wedding night, but given the bride’s current condition, the groom might as well become a monk!"

It was Ruan Yanbing who spoke. Normally, he wouldn’t dare to joke like this with Situ Xin, knowing full well her protective brothers could throw a mean punch, but today was different since it was Situ Xin and Xiao Muli’s wedding day. Even if her protective brothers were displeased with him, they wouldn’t really hit him, so he was unabashed. And Ruan Yanbing, the daredevil, after saying this, gave Situ Che and Loo Jie a provocative look as if to say, "You guys can’t beat me up today."

Situ Xin saw Ruan Yanbing’s small gesture and wasn’t bothered by his jest. However, his last little move made her smile grow wider. She knew what Ruan Yanbing’s look meant. She also wanted to remind Ruan Yanbing that while her brothers might restrain themselves today because of her big day, they might not hold back once the wedding banquet was over.

At the moment Ruan Yanbing’s words fell, everyone around who heard him laughed good-naturedly. But before Xiao Muli and Situ Xin could respond, Loo Jie was the first to react. He glared at his childhood friend, stood up with his glass of wine, and said, "Alright now, watch your words. Do you think we were too lenient during your last wedding banquet or what? Next time you get married, we brothers won’t be so merciful." After speaking, Loo Jie addressed everyone at the table, "Come on, stand up everyone. Haven’t you seen the bride and groom coming to toast?"

Ruan Yanbing quieted down after Loo Jie brought up his embarrassing past, no longer trying to trouble Situ Xin and Xiao Muli. He lifted his glass towards them and said, "Alright, I was just joking with you guys. Here, this cup is from me to you. You are the hope of everyone here, so you must always stay together, growing old together. Oh, and by the way, Xiao Xin, when your baby comes out, you have to let me be the godfather." Ruan Yanbing couldn’t help showing a longing expression as he mentioned the baby in Situ Xin’s belly, "Ah, thinking about what a cute baby Xiao Xin and Muli will have!"

"Enough, if you like children so much, go find a woman and have your own. Don’t set your sights on our Baby’s baby," Situ Che glared at Ruan Yanbing as he spoke. Doesn’t he know how popular our Baby’s little one is? The baby isn’t even born yet, and the three families are already bickering over it. This guy is still trying to butt in.

"Cough cough. Brother Che, Brother Yanbing, don’t you think it’s a bit too early for this talk? The baby in my belly is just over two months old. It’s still a while before they’re born. Let’s talk about this later, haha." Situ Xin felt a bit awkward. What a situation; they were actually discussing the baby in her belly right at her wedding. Plus, she could feel a few jealous and resentful gazes on her, making her quite uncomfortable.
