With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"Then we'll leave the palace now. Farewell."

Qi Ziyang and Xi Langhua bowed to them and took their leave, then departed together.

"Nangong Wu, I want to ask you for something." Bei Chenyan said with some difficulty.

Nangong Wu nodded. "What do you want? As long as I have it."

He keeps many of his things in her space and rarely asks her for anything.

"Fireworks!" Bei Chenyan looked at her. "The kind of beautiful fireworks you set off at the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion these past few years."

The children just asked me if there would be fireworks to watch tonight while staying up to welcome the New Year. I don't want to disappoint them; we didn't even let them see fireworks during the Lunar New Year.

There are fireworks in Nanqi Kingdom, but they are not as beautiful as the fireworks in Nangong Wu's space.

"Sure, it's just a few cigarettes. I'll get them for you later." Nangong Wu, thinking of the things he had stored in his spatial storage, asked, "When are you taking your things?"

They had been together for several years and had stolen a lot of ill-gotten gains. Moreover, he was the one who did all the hard labor. They had agreed to give him half of what they owned, and the things in the Wan family's underground palace should also be returned to him.

As for the treasures of the Fan family, and the items taken from the Prince Jing's residence, she wanted them all.

"Just put it in your space." Bei Chenyan took her hand, his eyes sparkling with a subtle light. "Nangong Wu, we are now engaged and have three children. My things belong to you and the children."

Nangong Wu looked up and saw that he was very close, his eyes sparkling with a captivating light. Startled, she took a step back, almost falling off to the other side.

Bei Chenyan hugged her tightly, bringing them even closer. "Nangong Wu, are you afraid of me?"

"Speak properly, don't stand so close..." Nangong Wu tried to push him away.

Bei Chenyan hugged her even tighter, his warm breath brushing against her cheek. "Nangong Wu, I really want us to get married soon."

"Then what are we doing so quickly?" Nangong Wu blurted out.

Bei Chenyan blinked his eyelashes. "I will only feel at ease after I marry you."

"Childish." Nangong Wu pushed him away. "Let go of me."

"I won't let go." Bei Chenyan shook his head, picked her up and put her on his lap. "Keep your voice down, don't wake the children."

"Bei Chenyan, you're becoming more and more shameless and shameless." Nangong Wu glared at him; this man wasn't like this before.

"People say you have to be shameless and shameless to get a wife. For you, I'm willing to be shameless." Bei Chenyan brought his face closer to hers, his eyes filled with tenderness. "How about you kiss me, and I'll let go."

"You..." Nangong Wu's face flushed red instantly.

"Nangong Wu, let's bind our fortunes and destinies together, and never be separated for all eternity, okay?" Bei Chen Yan's voice was gentle, as if he were coaxing a child.

"Are you serious? If fortune and destiny are bound together, it will be difficult to break free later. As the crown prince, the heir apparent of the country, you can't have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines," Nangong Wu reminded him.

"You know my personality; I'm not a gentle and considerate woman. If one day you can't stand it and want a divorce, you can find someone suitable for you."

Otherwise, breaking the bond would backfire on both of us, and I won't let myself get hurt. If you ever regret it or find another woman, I'll cripple you and torment you every day. Think it through first.

"What 'three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines'? There are countless women in the world, but I only want you. Moreover, I have already sworn to the heavens that I will never regret it!" Bei Chenyan's eyes were firm.

"Alright." Nangong Wu nodded. "Give me your birth date and time, and we'll be bound by marriage on our wedding day."

"I want to get married right now." Bei Chenyan was afraid that things might change if he delayed, and that she might suddenly change her mind and not want to marry him anymore.

"Now?" Nangong Wu frowned. Was this man in such a hurry?

"If possible, let's do it now. Keep our compatible birth dates and times on me." Bei Chenyan released her and took out a piece of red paper from his pocket.

Nangong Wu took it, opened it, and saw that it indeed contained the birth dates and times of the two of them.

She asked疑惑地问道, "Why do you carry our birth dates and times with you for no reason?"

"I'm just waiting to form a bond with you." Bei Chenyan blinked again.

"..." Nangong Wu felt that this man was seducing her.

"We pledge our lives to each other, hoping that in this life, the next, and the life after that, we will be together forever." The man's voice was deep, resonant, and magnetic.

Nangong Wu stared at him blankly.

In her past life, she had never cared about such cloyingly sweet words of love, but now, she felt a touch of emotion.

"Alright, then you're mine from now on. You won't have a chance to regret it."

"I'd be delighted!" A smile appeared in Bei Chenyan's eyes.

"However, this paper won't be written on like this." Nangong Wu placed the red paper on the table, took out two more red papers from her spatial storage, and a small dagger, handing them to him.

"Use your own blood to write down our names and birth dates on that piece of paper."

"Okay." Bei Chenyan picked up the dagger, cut his finger without hesitation, and wrote the two people's names and birth dates on the red paper.

Nangong Wu did the same, writing down her and Bei Chenyan's names and birth dates in blood.

After writing it down, she took out two band-aids and used them to stop the bleeding for both of them.

She placed the two pieces of paper together. Then she took out a small pair of scissors, cut off a strand of her hair and Bei Chenyan's hair, separated their hair, and tied them together, placing each strand on the two pieces of birth date and time paper.

"Is this considered a hair-tying ceremony?" Bei Chenyan asked.

"I suppose so." Nangong Wu took out another Bagua tortoise shell, quickly made a few hand seals, and silently recited a few incantations.

Suddenly, the names and birth dates of two people on the two pieces of paper lit up.

After the light faded, the words became even more vivid.

Bei Chenyan was astonished when he saw it.

The moment their fortunes and destinies aligned, a unique feeling welled up within them.

That's because we feel a deeper sense of intimacy with each other.

"Nangong Wu".

"Um."

"I feel like I can't live without you anymore, is it because of our bond?"

"It should be." Nangong Wu took out two more identical small pouches and put the marriage contract and hair-tying document inside.

This purse was made by the original owner, the one who lacked the Heavenly Soul.

After putting away the marriage contract, one of them kept one in their spatial storage, and the other was given to Bei Chenyan. "Here you go, let's each keep one safe, it would be troublesome if we lost them."

"Don't worry, even if I lose my life, I won't lose our marriage contract." Bei Chenyan carefully placed the small purse against his heart.

Nangong Wu stood up. "I'll go to the side hall and get the fireworks ready."

Bei Chenyan grabbed her arm. "Are you leaving now?"
