GLIHBN Chapter 117
by VolareChapter 117: Final Chapter: Proposal
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. Su Shi noticed that Chi Ye had been acting mysteriously lately, as if secretly planning something.
Not that Su Shi thought Chi Ye would do anything to betray him, but Su Shi simply didn’t like changes in his peaceful life, so he grabbed Chi Ye and asked directly, “Chi Ye, what have you been doing behind my back lately?”
The most taboo thing between lovers is suspicion. With endless guessing, hearts grow distant.
Chi Ye knew Su Shi’s personality, so he took his hand in his own and patted it soothingly. “Don’t worry, it’s nothing bad. You’ll find out when the time comes.”
Su Shi finally felt relieved. “Okay, then tell me as soon as possible.”
Two days later, Chi Ye said he wanted to take Su Shi somewhere and that they needed to dress formally. They both changed into custom-made new suits.
After Su Shi changed, he came out and saw Chi Ye already waiting for him.
With broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs, Chi Ye was very suitable for wearing a suit.
Although young, he didn’t look immature, and he had the air of a wealthy young nobleman.
Su Shi was very satisfied. This person belonged to him.
He looked Chi Ye up and down several times with his eyes, his mouth open in admiration.
Chi Ye lowered his head and adjusted his clothes. “How is it? Does it look good?”
Su Shi nodded vigorously. “Super good-looking.”
Chi Ye’s suit was black, while Su Shi’s was white.
Chi Ye also looked at Su Shi. Su Shi was tall and slender with delicate features, and he had a unique charm in a suit.
“You look good too.”
Su Shi couldn’t help but ask, “Where are we going tonight?”
“A banquet.”
“What’s my role?”
Chi Ye extended his arm, inviting Su Shi to take it. “My lover.”
Apart from family and friends, Su Shi and Chi Ye’s relationship had not been made public. This was the first time they would appear in public as a couple.
Su Shi was both nervous and excited.
No one wouldn’t like to make their relationship public with the person they loved, to be acknowledged and blessed by everyone.
Before getting out of the car, Chi Ye took out a ribbon from his pocket. “Tie this on. I’ll lead you in.”
So mysterious. Su Shi vaguely guessed something.
It seemed that he was probably the protagonist of this banquet.
Considering Chi Ye’s recent behavior, an idea was about to emerge.
Thinking of this, Su Shi became even more nervous.
Chi Ye tied the ribbon over Su Shi’s eyes, knotting it behind his head.
He reached out and took Su Shi’s hand. “Don’t worry, just follow me.”
Su Shi got out of the car. With his eyes unable to see, his senses of hearing and smell became more acute.
He followed Chi Ye’s steps for a while, then stopped. He smelled a fragrance.
Not the scent of perfume, but the sweet, natural fragrance of flowers, as if he were in a garden of a hundred flowers.
Su Shi tightened the hand holding Chi Ye’s, making a judgment in his mind. “Chi Ye.”
Chi Ye reached out and untied the ribbon behind Su Shi’s head.
The ribbon slid across Su Shi’s cheek, and light returned to his eyes.
The source of the floral fragrance was two flowerbeds.
The flowers were bright and vibrant, delicate and beautiful.
And they were now standing in front of a brand new villa.
At this moment, people began to come out from inside.
Song Qingyan, Qiao Yu, all the employees of the Studio, Chen Zihan and the members of the computer club, Chi Ye’s grandmother, Chen Cheng, Jiang Hui—all these people had actually come.
Song Qingyan spoke first. “Su Shi, the big house Chi Ye gave you is so beautiful.”
So this was what Chi Ye had been preparing for so long. He had really put in a lot of effort.
Chi Ye took Su Shi’s hand and said softly, “This is our marital home. I planted all the flowers myself. Do you like it?”
Before Su Shi could speak, suddenly, a cat jumped out from behind the crowd.
It gracefully walked towards them. It was actually Jiu Jiu from the pet shop.
Chi Ye stepped forward, bent down, picked up Jiu Jiu, and stroked its head. He said to Su Shi, “From now on, we’ll raise it together.”
Su Shi was so excited that he couldn’t speak.
Chi Ye handed the cat to Su Shi to hold and conjured a velvet box from somewhere. When he opened it, there was a pair of rings inside.
These were much more extravagant than their original pair of rings, with bigger and more dazzling diamonds.
Gasps of amazement rose and fell around them.
Chi Ye knelt on one knee. “Su Shi, I will love you forever. Will you marry me?”
The people around them cheered and chanted rhythmically, “Marry him, marry him.”
Su Shi didn’t like surprises, but he couldn’t resist such a grand surprise.
Chi Ye had prepared everything Su Shi wanted: a cat, a house, flowers, and Chi Ye himself.
Su Shi had no reason to refuse.
So, he reached out his hand.
Chi Ye put the ring on his ring finger, then stood up and extended his hand, letting Su Shi help him put on his ring.
For some reason, Chi Ye’s hand was shaking slightly. Su Shi had to try twice before he could get it on.
After exchanging rings, Chi Ye said, “The house is in both of our names, the cat belongs to both of us, and I am yours.”
Only then did Su Shi understand that people really want to cry when they are happy.
“Kiss, kiss!”
Led by Song Qingyan, a unified chant formed.
Su Shi was a little embarrassed because his grandmother and Jiang Hui were elders.
Chen Cheng was already crying his eyes out.
But Chi Ye didn’t care. He pulled Su Shi close and kissed him deeply.
In the corner, Xu Chongming leaned against the wall and watched quietly, a relieved smile on his lips.
Su Shi had never thought he would get married one day, and Chi Ye was still in college and far from being in a hurry to get married.
But Chi Ye was very anxious about it.
Although still very young, Chi Ye had wanted Su Shi for too long and didn’t want to wait any longer. He couldn’t wait to use this method to become even closer to Su Shi.
Not only that, but he also planned to go with Su Shi to pick up Su Qing at the end of the year and get their marriage certificate there, which would make everything complete.
Song Qingyan was even more excited than if he himself was getting married, his eyes filled with tears.
Qiao Yu hugged him. “If you like, we can also have a ceremony.”
Song Qingyan shook his head. “No need.”
Chi Ye and Su Shi accepted everyone’s blessings, feeling that this moment was perfect.
Su Qing gave Su Shi a video call. Seeing Su Shi in the camera, she praised him for being handsome.
Su Shi then realized that Su Qing had known about Chi Ye’s proposal for a long time, and Song Qingyan had even recorded the proposal process and sent it to her.
Su Qing teased Su Shi, “Brother, do you feel especially happy now?”
Su Shi said honestly, “Yes, very happy.”
“That’s good. Mom will be relieved to see it in heaven.”
Before Su Shi could talk to Su Qing for a few more words, Song Qingyan pulled him away to dance.
The banquet continued until twelve o’clock before people gradually began to leave.
As everyone departed, only Chi Ye and Su Shi were left.
Chi Ye hugged Su Shi and lay down on a lounge chair next to the flowerbed.
“Planting so many flowers must have taken a lot of effort, right?” Su Shi asked.
Chi Ye played with his fingers. “It’s okay, I had a gardener teach me.”
The moonlight was bright, and the stars twinkled in the sky, blinking their eyes.
The two people on the lounge chair kissed under the starry sky. At this moment, in their hearts, it was eternity.
