After hearing Jiang Mingzhu's question, Zhou Li finally adjusted his thoughts.
The lights in the yard shone on her face, making her delicate face even more alluring, and her seductive eyes seemed to have the magic power to drive people crazy.
The scene in front of him was something Zhou Li had never dared to dream about before.
He never thought that Jiang Mingzhu would propose to him one day.
She said the ring was ready.
Zhou Li looked into Jiang Mingzhu's eyes and gave the answer: "Yes."
Although my thoughts have been sorted out, my voice is still hoarse. Even if there are only two words, I can't hide the hoarseness.
Jiang Mingzhu smiled even brighter after hearing the answer.
Looking at Zhou Li's left hand: "Then give me your hand and I'll put the ring on you."
Zhou Li's left hand happened to be holding the cake. He placed the cake directly on the table next to him and obediently stretched his left and right hands towards Jiang Mingzhu.
Soon, her soft fingers wrapped around the back of his hand.
Zhou Li felt a cold metal covering his ring finger.
"I knew I was right." Jiang Mingzhu smiled proudly when she saw that the ring fit so well.
After Jiang Mingzhu put the cutoff on Zhou Li, the crowd of people watching began to applaud.
Xiao Zuo and Xiao You didn't know where they learned to cheer: "Kiss one, kiss one!"
Zhou Li: "..."
He ignored the shouts of the two naughty children and took Jiang Mingzhu's hand with his backhand to help her up from the ground.
After Jiang Mingzhu stood up, Zhou Li subconsciously knelt down to check her knees.
Her skin was delicate, and when she knelt down like this in a skirt, her knees turned red.
Zhou Li frowned: "Does it hurt?"
Jiang Mingzhu shook her head, "It doesn't hurt, I'm super happy."
Zhou Li wanted to say something else, but Xiao Zuo and Xiao You ran up.
"Kiss me, kiss me!"
Zhou Li: "...Don't make trouble."
It was rare for him to be so serious with his two nephews.
Zhou Li was quite scary when he was serious, but it had no deterrent effect on Xiao Zuo and Xiao You.
After all, they came here on a mission from Zhou Ren and Ming Yue, and they had someone to back them up and be very tough.
So the booing never stopped.
Under the night, Jiang Mingzhu saw that the tips of Zhou Li's ears turned red.
She pursed her lips and laughed.
After all this time, he is still so easily shy.
Then she can only take the initiative.
Jiang Mingzhu wrapped her arms around Zhou Li's neck and leaned in front of him as usual.
Her sudden movement startled Zhou Li, and he subconsciously stepped back, even in a hurry.
Zhou Li: "Don't make trouble."
Jiang Mingzhu: "If they want to see it so much, why don't you just kiss one and show it to them? It's not like you haven't been kissed before, so why are you so shy?"
Zhou Li coughed.
He played many tricks with Jiang Mingzhu in private, but he was always very restrained in front of others.
But Jiang Mingzhu said so, and with so many people watching, it was impossible for him not to give Jiang Mingzhu this face.
So I finally agreed.
When Jiang Mingzhu came closer, Zhou Li held her waist, and their lips touched each other.
Xiao Zuo and Xiao You started clapping and cheering the moment they saw them kissing.
The rest were busy taking photos and videos to record the moment.
This kiss was carried out very restrainedly, completely different from the state when they were lingering in private.
But Jiang Mingzhu enjoyed it so much that she couldn't bear to let go of him.
Finally, Zhou Li reminded her in her ear, and Jiang Mingzhu reluctantly let go.
After the two people separated, the people around them came up to talk.
Fu Xiaozhi and Fang Qinyang came here together. As soon as Fu Xiaozhi came over, she patted Zhou Li on the shoulder and said, "Our Zhuzhu will be left to you. You'd better be nice to her, otherwise..."
She stopped here and clapped her fingers, as if to hit someone.
Zhou Li was so used to it that he had only one word to respond: "Oh."
Fang Qinyang was not that familiar with Zhou Li, so his words were a little more polite, but the main idea was the same: "I hope you treat Zhuzhu well, I'm looking forward to drinking your wedding wine."
Zhou Li: "Yes."
As soon as Zhou Li finished responding to Fang Qinyang's words, Jin Rou and Zhou Zhang called him away to talk alone.
The family of three came to a corner of the Yushuiwan courtyard and stopped. Jin Rou glanced in Jiang Mingzhu's direction out of habit.
Then he began to "teach" Zhou Li: "How can you let a girl take the initiative to propose? You must make up for Mingzhu's proposal later."
Zhou Zhanghui also said: "You must make up for it. The relationship between you is deep. Mingzhu may not care about this, but her parents must give an explanation. They cannot let them feel that their daughter has suffered a loss."
Zhou Li nodded, "I understand."
He himself had no intention of letting Jiang Mingzhu take the initiative to propose to him, but he didn't have any ideas on this matter for the time being.
After responding, Zhou Li asked them: "Have you known this for a long time?"
Jin Rou: "I just found out last night that Mingzhu called your sister-in-law and said she wanted to propose to you. She asked us to be witnesses. Actually, she just wanted to save face for you."
"Mingzhu is so considerate to you, you'd better cherish it. If you dare to apologize to her and make her sad, your father and I will not have a son like you!" Jin Rou made her position clear to Zhou Li very forcefully.
Zhou Li: "..."
——
Because today was a special day and Jiang Mingzhu had just successfully proposed to Zhou Li, no one continued to disturb them and just joined in the fun and left.
Leave the two of them alone.
After seeing them off, Jiang Mingzhu immediately turned around and picked up the cake Zhou Li bought for her.
"It's so beautiful." Jiang Mingzhu looked around carefully, and the more she looked, the more she liked it.
Zhou Li took her hand and entered the house with her.
After coming in, I discovered that the home had been carefully decorated by her.
Along with the flowers and balloons, there was a row of postcards written by her.
Zhou Li walked up and read the words on the postcards one by one.
Basically, it's Jiang Mingzhu's usual sweet-talking style, with each sentence followed by a cute expression.
Her handwriting is very neat, one stroke at a time, like a primary school student.
Zhou Li took off a piece of paper and it said -
【You must have been a lighter in your last life, otherwise why would you have been lit on fire as soon as I got close to you (≖‿≖)✧】
Zhou Li: "..."
It's tacky and gross.
When he was holding the postcard and reading it, Jiang Mingzhu had already changed into slippers and walked over.
After she stopped, she came to hug him, squeezed his left hand, and carefully looked at the ring on her ring finger.
Zhou Li: "When did you buy it?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "When I return to Hong Kong City during the Spring Festival."
Zhou Li paused for a moment: "Is this why you've been so sneaky lately?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "What's so sneaky? I want to give you a surprise."
She shook his arm and smiled slyly, "Isn't it a surprise? Are you happy, brother?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Then... the proposal has been successful. Isn't it too much to ask you to call me wife?"
Zhou Li pursed his lips.
Just when Jiang Mingzhu thought he was going to be coy as usual, he suddenly said "hmm".
Then his deep and slow voice came to my ears: "Wife."
