Huo Chen’s words reassured her yet Wen He still could not believe it. It remained as if she would wake up from this memorable dream the moment she accepted the ring. Her world blurred out as she stared at Huo Chen, her emotions flooded her eyes. The man whispered, “Yes, this always belongs to you. Always.”
Wen He decisively reached out her arm.
He’s right. I should hesitate no more. I had waited this long enough.
It was a silent “yes” but it caused an uproar among the crowd as they applauded vigorously.
“Congrats!”
“Congratulations!”
“Woohoo!”
Wen He’s hand stopped moving at one point. She was not sure if it was because of anxiety or excitement. It felt like a rite of passage, another chapter completed in her life yet it felt like a ritual at the same time.
The cautious look brought a smile to Huo Chen’s face as he held her armwanting to put the ring on her.
*RIIIIINGGGGGG*
His mobile phone vibrated in his pocket suddenly causing Wen He to withdraw her arm in shock.
“Hahahaha!” The crowd laughed out loud.
Wen He frowned, “Pick the call first. Get up.”
Huo Chen raised his brows, “So was that a ‘yes’ from you?”
It was another moment of silence as Wen He felt drowned by the gazes from the crowd. “Give me that!” She gasped, rolled her eyes and snatched the ring, “Now—can you get up?”
It was a blatant “yes” from her.
Huo Chen smiled.
The rare smile from the cold man was charming so much so that it became the ride to wonderland for the ladies on the floor including Wen He who blushed.
“Hello.” He took the call, “Yes~”
“Sir! Something’s going on! About your wif-”
“We’ll talk about this after I get back.” And he hung up.
“Give the ring back to me.” Huo Chen reached out his hand as Wen He returned the ring with scowling eyes. “Take out your right hand.”
And Huo Chen put the ring over her ring finger. The pink diamond glittered upon the spotlight as they slowly crossed fingers together, “Now I’ve got you, Wen He. Whatever happens, you are not allowed to leave me, ever!” His eyes were solemn as his uniform.
Wen He gave a cutesy salute, “Yes, sir!”
Of course. I’ll never leave again. Unless you want me to…
Huo Chen chuckled, grabbed her to lift her one round before landing her in his embrace. Wen He wrapped herself upon his waist. It was tight. Very tight. It felt warm. Warmer than the fireplace in the lobby.
“Kiss him! Kiss him!” The crowd shouted again.
She felt extremely embarrassed as her face rubbed against his solid chest. She felt the need of oxygen as she breathed in deeply while taking in every bit of his scent.
It was satisfying as she reached for his lips.
The crowd hurrahed.
“Let’s go home.”
“Okay.” And both of them left the place.
But Wen He stopped by the door as she seemed to have forgotten somebody. Looking back, there was Lu Bai giving off a look of disdain as if criticizing her being man-blind.
She giggled before giving Gu Jinzhi another look.
