After I transmigrated, the cold king clung to me every day.

Chapter 260 Enjoying Wine and Chatting: A Happy Scene in the Restaurant

When Su Yao'er saw Su Wan'er, a bright smile instantly bloomed on her face. In her excitement, she forgot the difference in rank and cheerfully called out, "Sister~ You've come~" Her voice was clear and melodious, full of affection.

All eyes turned to Su Wan'er, following the direction of the voice. Su Wan'er felt a surge of disdain and didn't want to acknowledge her, but with everyone present, she forced a smile, her lips curving upwards to reveal a seemingly gentle one. Then, adopting a lecturing tone, she said softly, "Yao'er, although we are sisters, it's fine to be affectionate in daily life. However, the Prince is here, so you mustn't forget etiquette and must be mindful of it."

Upon hearing this, Su Yao'er blushed slightly, realizing her lapse in composure. She immediately bowed slightly, her voice tinged with nervousness and apology: "Greetings, Ninth Prince and Ninth Princess."

Murong Yi nodded slightly and said in a calm tone, "Get up!"

Lin Qianqian stepped forward with gentle steps, a tender smile on her face, her eyes full of concern and kindness. She gently helped Su Yao'er up and said softly, "We're all family, no need to be so polite! You're pregnant and it's inconvenient for you to move around, so please take good care of yourself and the baby in your womb." Her voice was like a spring breeze, making people feel warm.

Looking at the Ninth Princess Consort before her, Su Yao'er felt a surge of warmth in her heart and said tremblingly, "Thank you... Ninth Princess Consort!"

Then, Lin Qianqian turned to look at Zhao Xiong, a slight smile playing on her lips, a playful glint in her eyes, and teased, "Big brother, you are the happiest person in the world."

Zhao Xiong was slightly taken aback, a look of confusion on his face, and subconsciously asked, "Huh?"

Lin Qianqian covered her mouth and chuckled softly, then continued, "You have a smart and beautiful younger sister who is about to get married in a grand ceremony and find a good husband; and a beautiful, gentle, and virtuous wife who is about to give birth to your child. Such blessings are not something everyone can have. Don't you think you are the happiest person?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiong blushed slightly, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, and chuckled.

Everyone present was amused by Lin Qianqian's words and burst into laughter, filling the restaurant with a joyful atmosphere.

Only Su Wan'er stood quietly to one side, a stiff smile on her face, her hands unconsciously clenching her fists, a bitter feeling rising in her heart.

But she still tried to remain calm and maintain a facade of composure, not wanting others to notice her emotions.

Lin Qianqian moved gracefully to Shen Wanqing's side, a gentle and affectionate smile on her face, and gently took Shen Wanqing's hand.

Her eyes were full of sincere blessings, like the warm sunshine of spring, warming Shen Wanqing's heart. Lin Qianqian said softly, "Wanqing, congratulations."

Shen Wanqing nodded slightly and responded softly, "Mmm~" Overwhelmed with emotion and shyness, she couldn't say anything more. She could only convey her feelings to Lin Qianqian with her eyes full of gratitude and happiness.

Seeing this heartwarming scene, Zhao Xiong quickly greeted everyone warmly, his face beaming with a hearty smile: "Oh, you've come all this way! Come, come, sit down! We'll treat you to some good food and drinks. This meal is on me! Let's drink until we drop!"

Everyone echoed in agreement, their faces beaming with joy, and the atmosphere grew even more lively.

Just then, a series of steady and powerful footsteps came from behind. One of the main figures in this marriage, the Tenth Prince Murong Feng, was attracted by the lively atmosphere and stepped into the restaurant.

He wore a dark blue brocade robe, his posture upright and imposing, a carefree smile on his face, and his eyes revealing undisguised joy. Murong Feng said loudly, "How could I, the king, not participate in such a joyous occasion?"

Everyone turned to look at him, their eyes filled with surprise. Zhao Xiong hesitated for a moment, a hint of nervousness on his face, and stammered, "Tenth...Tenth Prince~"

Shen Wanqing lowered her head instinctively, her cheeks flushed, and she looked shy.

Su Yao'er saw through her thoughts and couldn't help but chuckle. She gently put her arm around Shen Wanqing's shoulder, pursed her lips, and showed a doting smile on her face.

Murong Yi frowned slightly, looked at Murong Feng, and said, "Tenth Brother, what brings you here!"

Murong Feng's lips curled up in a teasing smile as he deliberately raised his voice, "Ninth Brother, why wouldn't I come! I'm the groom-to-be!" His voice was filled with barely suppressed joy.

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanqing became even more shy and lowered her head even further.

Murong Yi shook her head helplessly and said, "Oh dear, the two parties cannot meet before the wedding, that's the rule. But since you're here, it's not right to send you away. But please don't tease your betrothed anymore, or you'll embarrass her."

Murong Feng laughed and said, "Ninth Brother is right, I'll remember that. But on such a joyous occasion, I just couldn't resist coming over to join in the fun and meet everyone." As he spoke, he looked tenderly at Shen Wanqing, his eyes full of love.

Inside the restaurant, the bright lights cast a warm glow on everyone's faces.

Murong Yi and Murong Feng sat facing each other, the two brothers occasionally raising their glasses to clink, chatting and laughing, their eyes revealing a deep affection between them.

Lin Qianqian sat beside Murong Yi, gently pouring him wine, her eyes full of concern and love. She occasionally chatted quietly with Su Yao'er, sharing interesting things in their lives. The two looked at each other and smiled, as close as sisters.

Su Yao'er gently stroked her swollen belly, her face beaming with a happy smile—a smile that reflected both anticipation for the new life and satisfaction with the lively scene before her.

Zhao Xiong stood to the side, bustling about and greeting everyone, a kind smile always on his face. He kept pouring wine and serving food, saying, "Eat and drink well, everyone, don't be shy!" His warm manner filled the entire restaurant with the cozy feeling of home.

Shen Wanqing sat next to Su Yao'er, feeling a little shy, but she was also infected by the joyful atmosphere.

She occasionally looked up and met Murong Feng's gaze. The two smiled at each other, their eyes filled with shyness and sweetness.

Su Wan'er sat in the corner. Although she felt a little lonely, she was also moved by the lively scene. She forced a smile and raised her glass to drink with everyone.

Wuming, Xiaodie, and the other servants stood aside, keeping a close eye on their masters' needs and ready to serve them at any time.

Throughout the restaurant, laughter and chatter filled the air, the clinking of glasses creating a cheerful melody.

The aroma of wine and food mingled with the laughter of the crowd, filling the air and creating a delightful and joyful atmosphere.

Everyone's face was beaming with smiles, a testament to their longing for a better life and their appreciation for this rare friendship.
