359 Then, You Agree?
The moment Zhang Li Xue heard that question, it felt as if everything around her had stopped. The flowers all around her were no longer as vibrant. There was only Bai Qi was in her eyes. The anxious face on his face told her that he was nervous.
She wondered if Bai Qi was worried that she would say no to it?
Just the thought makes her want to laugh. Therefore, she could not understand why her eyes were stinging and her nose felt sour.
Zhang Li Xue placed a hand over her mouth. To her surprise, she could feel tears, streaming down her face.
It was very strange.
Her heart surged with a warm feeling of happiness, but she could not stop from crying.
At this time, Zhang Li Xue recalled the story of how they got together.
According to Bai Qi, he already liked her when she was very young. But, she only come to like him when they met again as a grownup.
She had never thought that she would fall for him. But his attentiveness towards her as well as his unwillingness to give up despite everything that happened to him attracted her. Gradually, she fell in love with this man.
.....
Bai Qi said that he had tugged at her hair when they were younger because he wanted her attention. But being with him, Zhang Li Xue noticed that Bai Qi always had his eyes on her whenever they were together.
Her eyes shifted to the diamond ring in that box. In her opinion, this ring was the most beautiful diamond ring she had ever seen.
As she looked at it, the diamond twinkled, as if winking at her, coaxing her to accept this proposal.
Zhang Li Xue was very tempted to take a good look at this ring, but her hand was not moving.
She was still getting over the shock of finding out that her brother had joined Bai Qi to trick her into coming to the park when Bai Qi suddenly gave her another surprise.
What should she do? She was really touched.
Meanwhile, the smile on Bai Qi’s face began to feel a little stiff. He thought that his little fairy would be happy, but seeing her tears made him feel distressed.
However, Bai Qi kept his calm and continued to wait for her reply.
He did not know what was going on in her mind, but he figured out that Zhang Li Xue would need some time to compose herself.
After a while, Zhang Li Xue dabbed the corner of her eyes with her fingers. She looked at Bai Qi and forced a smile. “Look at how you have ruined my makeup. I took time to put them on today.”
Seeing the smile on her face made Bai Qi more at ease. Since she was in her mood to joke around, he could at least tell that this girl was not upset by his sudden proposal.
“I’m sorry.”
Once the tears in her eyes had dried, Zhang Li Xue looked at the man again and smiled. “Then, why don’t you help me by putting that ring on my finger?”
His eyes lit up. “Then, you agree?”
“You fool.” Her brow furrowed. “If you don’t hurry, then I might change my mind.”
Hearing her words, Bai Qi quickly reached for her hand. His breath was a little unsteady and his movement was too clumsy that he almost dropped the velvet box in his arms.
It was only when Zhang Li Xue held his hand to steady her movement that Bai Qi managed to take out the ring from the box. Then, he held her hand gently and the ring in another. Slowly, Bai Qi slid the ring onto her finger.
A breath of relief finally escaped her once he saw that the ring fit her finger perfectly. He rubbed her hand a few times, admiring her slender finger. Just as he had thought. The ring would look beautiful on her.
He leaned over and pressed his lips against hers for a kiss. “Zhang Li Xue, I promise you that I will never disappoint you in this life.” He lowered his head slowly and kissed the back of her hand. He wanted to hold the girl in his arm and kissed her again. However, it was a little difficult to reach her while she was still in her wheelchair.
“It’s a good fit,” Zhang Li Xue commented as she admired the ring. “How do you know my size?”
“I have been measuring your fingers. Of course, I would know your size.”
Zhang Li Xue suddenly recalled the way Bai Qi would tug and play with her fingers recently. It turned out that he was secretly measuring her fingers.
At this time, Zhang Li Xue suddenly recalled something else.
“That day, you told me that you wanted to give me a surprise.” Her eyes twinkled. “Is this the surprise you mentioned?”
Bai Qi chuckled. “Mmm... Do you like it?”
“Un. I like it.” The smile on her face widened. It was now that Zhang Li Xue understood why this man has been very secretive with her.
“Then, what about that person you were meeting?”
Bai Qi did not know whether he should laugh about it. It seemed that this little fairy had not forgotten about his meeting. “Why do you still remember about it?”
“It was rare for you to be very secretive about who you are meeting,” Zhang Li Xue spoke. “Of course, I’m going to remember about it.”
Bai Qi held her hands tightly. “On that day, the person I met was your father.”
Zhang Li Xue could not hide her surprise. She did not know that Bai Qi has been meeting her father privately. Her father had not mentioned this matter to her as well.
“Since I am planning to propose to you, of course, I will have to ask for his permission first.”
“My father agreed?”
“Mmm... Otherwise, it would be really difficult for me to marry you.”
Her heart warmed. Zhang Li Xue had never thought that her father would agree to it.
The couple continued to chat under the tree. Zhang Li Xue had a lot of questions and Bai Qi patiently answered them one by one.
What they did not realize was that Zhang Yi Hai and Fang Su Jin were busy recording this scene.
