Lu Chaochao was stunned. She covered her mouth and stared blankly at the banquet.
He actually proposed to her?
Or use that priceless treasure to propose to her?
Lu Chaochao clutched her chest, her heart telling her that she felt inferior.
At this moment, she clearly understood the gap between her and Ji Yanli.
If she agrees to his proposal, will Ji Yanli's family support them and like her?
Looking at him kneeling on one knee, Lu Chaochao sighed in his heart, how could she be able to meet such a good quarterly banquet?
Is there something shining about her that he likes?
Lu Chaochao began to doubt himself. Facing such an outstanding man, no woman would be uneasy.
She is no exception.
Lu Chaochao looked at Ji Yanli again, as if he was quietly waiting for her answer.
There is no urging, no impatience, only gentle waiting.
Yes, his eyes are as gentle as moonlight, with tentativeness and caution in his eyes.
There seems to be some fear.
He was at a seasonal banquet, how could he be afraid?
Are you afraid of her rejection?
Lu Chaochao also asked himself repeatedly in his heart, is he sincere?
Do you really like her as a person? Or is it because of the child in the belly?
She was so afraid that the reason why he proposed was not just because of her.
Lu Chaochao stretched out his hand tentatively, and then couldn't help but retracted it.
Ji Yanli also saw that his Chao Chao was afraid.
Since he had seen her hesitation and fear, he did not stand up, but squatted directly in front of her, looking at her gently with his eyes.
"Chaochao, what are you worried about?"
Lu Chaochao shook her head. She didn't want to refuse the quarterly banquet, nor did she want to see a disappointed expression on his handsome face.
She didn't know whether to ask the question in her heart, and she was a little hesitant.
"Chaochao, if there's something I didn't do well, you can tell me directly."
The banquet ceremony was not angry or discouraged because of Lu Chaochao's refusal.
It is normal for girls to think seriously about their marriage.
When he was studying abroad, many of his friends proposed to them 99 times before they succeeded.
If he succeeds the first time, then God really loves him.
Ji Yanli's eyes were so sincere that Lu Chaochao rehearsed in his mind for a long time before saying the question she wanted to ask.
"Brother Ji, do you like me?"
The banquet was surprised. Didn't what he did every day express his deep feelings?
During this business trip, many opponents were already asking him if good things were coming.
At that time, he also asked his opponent why he asked such a question.
The opponent smiled and replied, "My God, because of the quarterly banquet ceremony, the decision you made this time is much gentler, and my heart feels much better."
Other outsiders have noticed his change, so why does Lu Chaochao, the person involved, still doubt his feelings.
"Chaochao, I thought I made it very obvious, but I still have to tell you, I like you, I like you very, very much, or 'I like you' cannot fully express my feelings. I think, I should have changed the word."
Lu Chaochao grasped the sheets tightly with his little hands and asked nervously, "What?"
Ji Yanli reached out and smoothed the broken hair on her forehead, "It should be because I love you."
The tower that Lu Chaochao spent twelve years building in his heart collapsed at this moment.
"Brother Ji, why do you love me!"
Twelve years later, Lu Chaochao still doesn't know what advantages he has that make others like him.
"Chaochao, this is a good question." Ji Yanli held her hand and asked her to interlock with him.
"I like how strong and brave you are, but I also like how weak and crying you are."
“我爱你霸气挥着巴掌举着拳头揍人的一面……好好好，不说这个。”
The quarter banquet ceremony was punched by Lu Chaochao who was blushing.
He surrendered and continued.
"Besides this, I also like the way you cry in my arms, the way you chat, the way you dance in the video, the way you look at the sky, the way you eat, and you are so cute even when you are asleep."
"Chaochao, no matter you love to laugh, cry, make trouble, or even roll around, I love you all."
"In my heart, you are the most dazzling little sun."
"Who doesn't like the warm sun? Chaochao, do you think I'm right?"
Mom, how could anyone in this world speak so sweetly about love?
Lu Chaochao had long been defeated by the attack of such love words. Fortunately, there was still a last line of defense that allowed her to ask another question.
"Brother Ji, did you propose to me because of... the baby in your belly?"
After she finished speaking, she didn't dare to look into Ji Yanli's eyes, and she was also afraid of hearing a different answer.
Sure enough, Ji Yanli's expression changed, and he showed an angry expression for the first time in front of Lu Chaochao, but in order not to scare her, he tried his best to hide it.
But the eagerness in his tone betrayed his emotions, "Chaochao, you can't misunderstand my feelings for you."
"I told you at your doorstep that I wanted to take care of you."
"It's because I fell in love with you that I thought about proposing to you."
Lu Chaochao avoided Ji Yanli's somewhat hurt eyes.
She's just... not sure.
The little girl's personality was like this. Ji Yanli sighed in his heart, blaming the Lu family for causing his little sun to be like this.
He took a deep breath, reorganized his words, softened his tone a little, and raised Lu Chaochao's head with his hands to make her look into his eyes.
"Brother Ji..."
Lu Chaochao was a little uncomfortable and wanted to hide.
"Chaochao, listen to me." She stopped moving.
"Chaochao, I know you may be a little scared, and I won't deny it. It is indeed because of the arrival of the baby that I proposed to you in advance."
"But you can't doubt my feelings for you just because of this."
"Ah?" Lu Chaochao was still a little confused, like a cute idiot.
The banquet couldn't help but tap her forehead with his fingers.
"Lu Chaochao, think about it for yourself. Did I treat you badly before the baby came?"
She blinked a little guiltily. The quarterly banquet was not bad for her, but it was very good.
She asked Aunt Wang to make delicious food for her every day, and she gained five pounds in half a month.
When it snowed, someone would pick her up from school, and she was still chattering on the phone about how to pay attention to safety and not to fall.
So, before the baby came, he was doing very well.
"Little guy, I feel guilty." Ji Yanli pulled her cheek.
"Don't misunderstand me like this in the future."
"But...we haven't known each other for a long time, so we can't get married so early."
Lu Chaochao said this with a big tongue.
Is she right? They have not known each other for a long time. If they get married so soon, what if they regret the wedding ceremony in the future?
Ji Yanli sighed and continued, "But the baby is here. How can we get a birth certificate for the baby if we don't get married? Do you want the father to be unidentified as soon as the baby is born?"
The old man continued to pretend to deceive the little white rabbit.
