C697 Apprehensive Proposal
He walked in softly and saw Xi Li wiping her long hair with her back against the dressing table. The lace nightgown outlined her slender figure and her long wet hair carelessly rested on her snow-white shoulders. This scene … Faang Cheng felt that it had been a long time since he last saw her.
Resisting the throbbing in his heart, he gently walked over and took the towel in Xi Xi's hand to help her wipe her hair!
Xi Ri was obviously shocked, she turned and saw that it was Faang Cheng. She then heaved a sigh of relief.
"You scared me, so I didn't say anything …"
She gently rebuked him, but there was no anger in her tone.
"Turn around, let me help you wipe your hair dry. Otherwise, if you don't, the weather will be cold and you will catch a cold …"
Faang Cheng said softly. The whole room was filled with beautiful things that he was unwilling to part with.
"Alright!"
Tian Xi obediently turned her head, allowing Faang Cheng to wipe off her long hair, she then picked up her pipe and started to blow.
"Day and night …"
Faang Cheng looked at Xi Xi Xi's fair neck from behind and said softly:
"Hmm?"
He did not turn back as he replied in a natural manner.
"This year... Come to my house for the new year! "
Faang Cheng's voice fell, he pondered for a moment, then nodded his head.
"Alright, I'll tell grandpa and mom later!"
"En!"
Faang Cheng nodded, and after thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said.
"Come back after the new year …" Let's get engaged! "
After a long while, Faang Cheng felt that a century had passed … No, it was even centuries before he turned his head slowly,
"You … Is this proposing to me? "
She looked a little wronged, probably because she felt that Faang Cheng's proposal was too insatiable.
"Propose to me …" None of them have presents? "
Looking at Faang Cheng's empty hands, he could not help but feel disappointed. As a girl, it was normal for her to yearn for a romantic proposal.
"Who said I didn't bring any presents? I did. I stayed for a long time, so I left them downstairs!"
Faang Cheng said in all seriousness.
"Really?"
There was a little hope on his disappointed face.
"Come, let me show you. Your jacket is a bit cold downstairs!"
Faang Cheng softly said to her:
"Alright!"
After putting on a coat, she pulled Faang Cheng along as she ran downstairs!
"Here, look …" So many gifts! "
Arriving at the living room, Faang Cheng pointed at the huge pile of gifts he brought with him on the table.
"There are sea cucumber, deer antler, swallow nest, winter insect and summer grass, as well as natural pearls, and Tian Yu's pieces, and …"
Before he could finish his words, Xi Meng, who was standing off to the side, flung his hand away and glared at him angrily.
"Are you going to propose with these gifts? You … Faang Cheng, tell me, are you really an Earthling? Are you from another planet? "
Xi Ri's lungs were about to explode from the anger, but when Faang Cheng saw her angry look, he could not help but want to laugh.
"You're still laughing? What are you laughing at? "
Seeing him laughing, Xi Meng became even angrier. She raised her little fist and punched him.
"Laughing …" "I'll make you laugh …"
"Day and night …"
Faang Cheng suddenly grabbed Chao Xi's fist, and looked at him with serious yet deep feelings.
"You … Why are you suddenly looking at me like that? "
Chao Xi suddenly felt guilty under Faang Cheng's passionate gaze, and asked anxiously.
"Daylight, the reason why you're so angry is because I proposed to you, or because... I didn't buy you a present, or... My preparations weren't romantic enough? "
Faang Cheng asked seriously. His serious look actually made Xi Ri feel embarrassed.
"I'm not really angry either …" That is … I just think that your proposal is a bit too perfunctory! "
"Then you don't reject my proposal, do you?"
Faang Cheng's tone was a little excited as he rolled her eyes at him. He couldn't help but laugh and look around.
"Why do you reject it? You are the man I chose … "Besides, all relationships that don't have the goal of marriage are all about hooligans, I never play the role of a hooligan …"
Although her voice was light, every word was loud enough for Faang Cheng to hear clearly. He grinned from ear to ear.
"Day and night …" "I have something to show you, come with me …"
Faang Cheng suddenly held onto Chao Xi's hand and walked towards the door.
"What is it? Is it a gift? "
The present was still entangled in his mind!
The two of them walked out of the Chao Family old residence's gate and arrived in the courtyard.
At this moment, the sun was high up in the sky and the blue sky was almost transparent. Clouds were floating in the air!
"The weather is really good today!"
Faang Cheng took a deep breath and looked at the fresh, simple, and elegant morning sky. Then, he lightly smiled and snapped his fingers.
Chao Xi instantly widened her eyes in shock. The previously clear sky instantly darkened and millions of clouds quickly gathered, forming a large area of white, as if … Just like the curtains in a movie theater, what happened next … This was going to be a good show!
That really was like a movie, the scene … It seemed to be an ancient wedding, with an antique carved corridor and a red muslin curtain that was unique to the wedding. The spacious courtyard that was filled with people walking in and out was bustling with noise and excitement.
Soon after, the scene changed to a bridal chamber. A graceful bride dressed in bright red wedding clothes sat in the middle of the bed, a slender white hand holding onto a bamboo pole as she gently lifted the red veil covering her head … What was revealed was Xi Ri's face.
"That's me, how is that possible? Then … "That groom is …"
Zhao Xi looked at Faang Cheng in shock. Faang Cheng turned his head and gave her a light smile, and then indicated for her to continue watching.
The two of them held a jade cup in their hands as they drank together. The groom slowly turned around and as expected … That was Faang Cheng's look!
"How could this be …" Faang Cheng, how did you do it? "
Before the surprised voice of Chao Xi could even reach her ears, the scene changed abruptly. The sky outside the window immediately became pitch black, and the bridal chamber became extremely dark. The groom fell at the bride's feet, his body in a mess. Tears fell drop by drop onto the ground. Suddenly, she stood up and pulled out a sword from the scabbard hanging by the side of the bed, and slashed at her neck without hesitation …
"Ah …"
Chao Xi was so frightened by the bride's sudden action that she retreated a step back. Faang Cheng immediately reached out to hug her, and then slowly raised his head to look at Faang Cheng. He was filled with disbelief.
"This is …" Is this us? "
She was smart like her, how could she not think of it? Faang Cheng had mentioned their past lives before.
"Didn't you say that … Were we very happy in our past lives? I have six children and you have been bullied by me until you are in your seventies and eighties. Could it be that … Is that all a lie? "
As she spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes!
