Chapter 925: Chapter 924: Will You Marry Me?

“What a beautiful sky.”

“The glimmer on the sea looks nice too. That bridge is like a sword, splitting the sea on both sides.”

“This isn’t exactly a sunrise over the sea, but watching the sunrise in the city from the outskirts is also amazing. The feeling of awakening a city is so incredible.”

“It’s so stunning. It’s like not just watching the sun rise from the east, but accomplishing something amazing, a big event that will often be remembered in the future.”

The chattering continued incessantly, as Mu Qiu leaned on Cheng Zhirang’s shoulder, staring dazedly into the distance.

The main camera that had been filming them switched to the drone, buzzing overhead, capturing the magnificent sunrise from their perspective.

They only showed their upper bodies, as the camera encompassed the beauty of the distant scenery and the six heads resting against each other. When the unkempt hair strands swayed slightly, the sky completely transformed into radiant daylight.

The scene in the camera didn’t look like six glamorous celebrities filming a variety show. Instead, it resembled six young people at eighteen, sitting on a rooftop in another space-time, looking toward the future, leaning carefree against the railing, enjoying the breeze, discussing the path they want to take, and promising to meet in the same timeline with different accomplishments.

This was their imagined future, and indeed, they reunited.

The drone flew away, leaving only a trace of their silhouettes.

“Qiuqiu.”

“Hmm?”

Cheng Zhirang suddenly left the sofa, knelt on one knee in front of her, holding a pink velvet box in his palm.

Assistant Liang handed over flowers from behind, which were received by Shi Yuhuai and Guan Yu on the other side, then passed to the closer Li Yang and Shu Ran.

Two vividly red bouquets of roses surrounded them, and Mu Qiu looked at the person kneeling in front of her, somewhat stunned.

Cheng Zhirang was somewhat nervous, his Adam’s apple moved as he opened the box, solemnly, seriously, and gently said, “You said, if I propose again, you would take it seriously. You also said you’re always ready. So, may I ask—”

“Will you marry me now?”

Guan Yu and the others suppressed their excitement that felt like their blood vessels might burst, covering their mouths yet couldn’t control themselves from screaming and cheering.

“Say yes to him!”

“Say yes to him!”

“Beautiful lady, you should be answering ‘I do’ now!”

The screams, distorted by distance, were caught by the drone’s recording equipment.

Mu Qiu tightened her lips, looked at the ring styled like intertwined vines with a blue diamond blooming at the top, didn’t reply but softly asked first.

“What does this ring mean?”

“The story of Lan An and the bird. Originally, I also had the Little Prince and the rose custom-made, but later you told me the story of Lan An and the bird, so I brought this one today.”

Mu Qiu: “Do you want to be my Lan An?”

Cheng Zhirang shook his head, looked into her eyes, and said, “I want to be the bird more.”

Lan An kills surrounding plants, but allows only one type of bird to come near. I believe my tenderness is now only for you, so I boldly pray for your tenderness to be only for me.

Her heart felt unbelievably soft, her chest felt like honey was flowing in, so sweet it made her limbs numb.

She extended her right hand, nodded softly, “I do.”

He took the ring from the box, which Shi Yuhuai carefully took and held.

The hand in front of him was slender and fair. He cautiously slid the ring onto her ring finger, and this short distance seemed to make them feel, as the ring gradually moved closer, they too grew closer, their shared future got closer, happiness and sweetness got closer.

Until the ring rested at the base of the ring finger, Mu Qiu clenched her fist, showed off the diamond ring, and said, “Fits perfectly, looks great, I love it.”

Their future was bound together.

The tension in Cheng Zhirang’s heart finally subsided, he stood up from kneeling by the sofa’s edge, tightly hugged her.

Red roses were stuffed into their embrace, beside them Guan Yu and others’ cheers sounded again.

“This is way too much for single folks to handle!”

“In this scenario, isn’t a kiss necessary?”

“Kiss her!”

“Kiss her! Kiss her!”

“Quick, kiss her! I’m getting so excited I wanna set off fireworks for you two!”

The cheering mixed with excited screams, as well as applause from surrounding agents, assistants, and program staff. Mu Qiu felt her heartbeat speeding up, the corners of her mouth uncontrollably lifted, a kind of indescribable emotion running through her veins, making her blush, and couldn’t help but want to scream out loud.

Just like getting ready for a high-speed descent on a roller coaster, this urge surged through her body, if she couldn’t scream to let it out, then it could only be expressed in another way.

Cheng Zhirang bent down to kiss her.

The hand that just put on the ring hooked around his neck, as the two kissed obliviously.

The cheers and screams grew more intense, Guan Yu screamed until her voice broke, grabbing others and shaking them vigorously.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh is this really a scene for us single people to watch ahhhhhhhhh!”

“Let me go!”

The drone showed no sign of returning. Only Cheng Zhirang’s initial call of “Qiuqiu” and other people’s faintly hoarse cheers could be heard in the live stream.

The camera caught glimpses of red rose shadows swaying. But that was already enough to make the audience boil.

[What’s happening?]

[I knew not many people would get up early to watch the sunrise with them]

[First check-in, I’m so sleepy]

[Could it be a wedding proposal?! I saw red roses!]

[What’s going on?! What proposal?! Who’s proposing to whom?!]

[What are they screaming about? What red roses?]

[Oh my God, I’m suddenly wide awake]

[What?! Brother Huai’s proposing to someone?!]

[… Shouldn’t it be Brother Cheng proposing? Where are Brother Huai’s potential partners for a proposal?]

[My mind isn’t quite clear right now, let me ask: was it really a proposal?]

[I have to wake my entire Cheng Zhi group!]

[I saw two huge red roses flash by!]

[And heard “Say yes to him,” if it’s not a proposal, what is it?! Could it be a fight]

[… This is indeed a bit sudden, my mind is blank right now]

[My Brother Cheng, is stepping into marriage]

[I’m absolutely stunned by this distant view, then outside the camera this group is proposing!]

[Did they plan this with Guan Yu yesterday? Why else would Guan Yu suddenly suggest watching the sunrise]

[Cheng Hui! Shouldn’t proposals happen in very formal occasions? Aren’t you afraid of being rejected this way? / Eighteen-year-old me worrying like an eighty-year-old.jpg]

[I’m so excited I twisted myself into a caterpillar in bed!]

[Waaaah I’m reluctant, but as long as you’re happy, Brother]

[Begging the program team, please release the proposal footage!]

[Calm down, it’s not over yet, let’s see if it’s really true later, if there’s no proposal and we hollered this much, it’d be awkward]

[Damn, for future edits, please show Cheng Zhirang holding roses kneeling down! I want to use it as a wallpaper!!!]

[Feeling an indescribable complexity, I want to cry, don’t know why]
