On How To Defeat Dr. Qing Leng Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Let’s get married

“Let’s get married.”

Pei Yan’s words suddenly rang out and struck Wen Yelan’s heart, causing violent ripples in circles.

“…Marriage?”

Wen Yelan muttered and repeated it, as if he didn’t understand.He raised his eyes and looked straight into Pei Yan’s eyes.

Time seemed to be stretched out.The sound of wind brought distant laughter and the crackling sound of firewood.Wen Yelan felt that his heartbeat was so loud that it hit his eardrums.

Pei Yan was stunned for a moment when he looked at Wen Yelan. His always cold eyes were now covered with a dazed glint, and his lips were slightly open, but no sound came out.Every second of waiting seemed to be stretched infinitely, and the hot impulse in my heart gradually calmed down.Was he…too hasty?Too sudden?They had just reconciled, and they hadn’t even fully talked about their past issues before he brought this up…

Loss is like a fine needle, piercing into the heart that was filled with passion and hope just now.Pei Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, trying to make his expression look more relaxed, but his voice lowered involuntarily, with a hint of unnoticeable harshness:

“Scared you? I…I just suddenly thought…it was a little thoughtless.” He looked away and looked at the dark night in the distance, his Adam’s apple rolled, “Don’t worry, this…we will think about it slowly after we go back. Just…act like I didn’t say it.”

The last few words were so light that they were almost blown away by the wind.

Wen Yelan moved at this moment.He didn’t speak, he just stretched out his hand and gently hooked Pei Yan’s fingers that were curled up at his side.The cold fingertips touched the warm back of Pei Yan’s hand.

Pei Yan froze and looked up.

Wen Yelan was looking up at him. The golden-red light of the bonfire danced on his face, giving his usually too pale cheeks a warm color.His eyes were very bright, reflecting the firelight and Pei Yan’s somewhat embarrassed face.Then, the corners of the lips, which were always pursed, curved upward very lightly and slowly in a slight arc.

“Then…” Wen Yelan said, her voice low and slightly hoarse as if she had just regained consciousness, “Who is wearing the wedding dress?”

Pei Yan was stunned.

His mind went blank for a moment, and then, a huge ecstasy that could overwhelm everything exploded in his heart like an explosion, spreading to all his limbs!He could even hear the blood roaring in his ears.

“You…you agreed?!” Pei Yan’s voice suddenly rose to a broken note, and his fingers turned away from him. He suddenly squeezed Wen Yelan’s hand tightly, with such force that it almost crushed his phalanges.He took a step forward, his eyes widened with incredible ecstasy and eagerness, “Wen Yelan! What did you just say? Say it again!”

Wen Yelan’s hand hurt from his grip, but he didn’t pull back, but the smile spread from the corners of his lips to his eyes, making those eyes that were always too calm look incredibly vivid.”Let me tell you,” he raised his voice slightly and said each word clearly, “who is wearing a wedding veil?”

“Anyone can do it! You can wear it, I can wear it! Let’s make two custom-made suits! No, you can wear whatever you want! It’s okay if you don’t wear anything!” Pei Yan spoke incoherently, his voice trembling with excitement. He suddenly pulled Wen Yelan into his arms, holding his arms tightly, as if he wanted to rub him into his own flesh and blood.He buried his cheek into Wen Yelan’s neck and took a deep breath. His nose was filled with Wen Yelan’s scent, mixed with the smell of campfire smoke and the smell of the prairie night.

Then, Wen Yelan felt a little wetness on his neck.

He was slightly startled, raised the hand that was not hugged, and touched the side of Pei Yan’s face.My fingertips touched a patch of warm moisture.

Pei Yan…cryed?

This realization made a corner of Wen Yelan’s heart feel sour and weak.He gently pushed Pei Yan away, and by the firelight, he saw Pei Yan’s red eyes and the traces of water that he couldn’t wipe away in time.The face that was usually flamboyant or domineering was now filled with unprepared excitement and vulnerability.

“Idiot.” Wen Yelan whispered, gently wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes with the pads of his thumbs.The movements were so gentle that even he was a little surprised.

Only then did Pei Yan realize that he had shed tears. He was suddenly embarrassed and turned his head to hide, but Wen Yelan held his cheek in place.He looked at Wen Yelan who was close at hand, his clear reflection in his eyes and his undisguised happiness, and his heart ached with pain and was so sweet that he panicked.

“I…I just…” Pei Yan wanted to explain, but his mind went blank. He simply hugged the person tightly again, hid his face, and said in a low voice, “I’m happy. Wen Yelan, I’m so happy that I’m going crazy.”

Wen Yelan let him hold her, resting her chin on his broad shoulders, looking over his shoulders towards the direction of the bonfire.The piece of frozen soil in my heart that had been barren for a long time was completely melted by Pei Yan’s hot body temperature, giving birth to unprecedented warmth and vitality.

It turns out that this is what it feels like to be loved so passionately and unreservedly by someone and look forward to spending the rest of your life together.

“Yes.” He responded softly, closed his eyes, and hugged Pei Yan back.Wrapping your arms around his tight waist, you completely surrendered yourself into this embrace.

The surrounding noise was silent for an unknown moment, and then erupted into louder cheers and whistles!Saihan was the first to clapped his hands and jumped up, shouting something loudly in Mongolian. The surrounding herdsmen, as well as Senior Brother Zhou, Ling Yue and other members of the project team, all followed suit with bright smiles.

“It’s done! It must be done!” Ling Yue excitedly grabbed the arm of the team member next to her and shook it.

“The two of them are really…” Senior Brother Zhou shook his head with a smile and raised the milk tea bowl in his hand, “Come on, come on, respect the newcomers!”

Saihan had already led several young herdsmen girls and boys to dance a traditional dance around the bonfire.Upbeat music played, and someone played a tambourine.Soon, more people joined in, holding hands, forming circles, spinning around the bonfire, stepping, singing and laughter spread far across the open grassland.

Saihan danced and came to the two people who were still hugging each other tightly. He smiled and shouted in Chinese: “Mr. Pei! Dr. Wen! Don’t just hug! Come and dance! Today is a good day!”

Pei Yan then let go of Wen Yelan, but still held his hand tightly.His eyes were still a little red, but there was a big smile on his face, and there was something unprecedentedly practical and satisfying in that smile.He looked at Wen Yelan with questioning eyes.

Wen Yelan looked at the lively and joyful scene in front of him, the sincere smiles on people’s faces, and the burning eyes of those around him.

He nodded.

Pei Yan’s eyes lit up, and he pulled him to join the crowd.Wen Yelan couldn’t keep up with the rhythm at first and stepped on Pei Yan several times.Pei Yan didn’t care. He smiled and held his waist, half hugging and half leading him, swaying and spinning in circles with the rhythm of the crowd.

The firelight reflected every smiling face and their snuggling figures.Wen Yelan gradually relaxed and kept up with the simple pace, hearing Pei Yan’s smiling guidance and the good-natured laughter of the people around him.A strange, pure joy, like warm spring water, slowly flowed into his heart.

After dancing twice, Wen Yelan’s cheeks turned red and he was breathing slightly.Pei Yan saw his discomfort, so he pulled him out of the dancing circle and walked to the place where food and drinks were placed nearby.

Someone immediately handed over a filled wine glass.

“Mr. Pei, Dr. Wen, you must have a drink! Celebrate!” A cheerful herdsman uncle held up a bowl.

“Yes! Have a drink!”

Everyone agreed.

Pei Yan took one bowl, handed one to Wen Yelan, and picked up another bowl himself.”Thank you, everyone!” He said loudly, his eyes scanning everyone present, and finally landing on Wen Yelan’s face, his voice was low and clear, “Today, I, Pei Yan, am here to ask everyone to be a witness.”

The noise became a little lower, and everyone looked over with smiles.

Pei Yan raised the bowl and faced Wen Yelan: “Wen Yelan, from now on, you are mine. For the rest of your life.”

It was simple, crude, and unadorned, but it struck Wen Yelan’s heart more powerfully than any gorgeous oath.He looked at Pei Yan’s extremely determined eyes under the firelight, and there were indescribable emotions in his chest.He also raised the bowl and touched it lightly with him.

“Yeah.” He responded, his voice not loud but clear enough.

The two of them raised their heads and drank the wine in the bowl.The clear and slightly spicy liquid slides down the throat, bringing a sense of warmth.

“Okay!”

“Congratulations!”

Cheers sounded again.More people came over to toast, with simple blessings from herdsmen and friendly ridicule from colleagues in the project team.Pei Yan didn’t refuse anyone who came, and he was in an extremely good mood.Wen Yelan also drank a lot. He had a poor drinking capacity. After several bowls of kumis, his fair cheeks quickly turned crimson and his eyes became a little blurry.

While dealing with the toast, Pei Yan was distractedly paying attention to Wen Yelan.Seeing that his steps were a little shaky and his eyes were wandering, she knew that he was really drunk, so she brought him to her side and put her arms firmly around his shoulders.

“Pei Yan…” Wen Yelan leaned against him, raised her face, and her breath, smelling of sake, brushed warmly on Pei Yan’s chin.

“Huh? What’s wrong?” Pei Yan lowered his head and moved closer to him, his voice softening unconsciously.

“I… feel a little dizzy.” Wen Yelan frowned and told the truth.He rarely drank so much. This feeling was not uncomfortable, but his body was light and his thinking became sluggish, giving him a strange sense of relaxation.

“Then let’s go back and rest?” Pei Yan said immediately.

But Wen Yelan shook his head, and glanced at the still lively bonfire and crowd, then looked at Pei Yan, with a childish stubbornness and excitement in his eyes: “Stay a little longer… it’s fun.”

Pei Yan couldn’t help but feel soft in his heart.”Okay, stay a little longer. But you can’t drink anymore.” He took away the half-bowl of wine that someone had shoved into Wen Yelan’s hand and replaced it with a bowl of milk tea.

Wen Yelan nodded while holding the milk tea and sipped it in small sips, looking at the dancing crowd with bright eyes and a slight smile on her lips.

Seeing him like this, Pei Yan’s heart surged with love, and he couldn’t help but place a kiss on the top of his hair.

After more than half an hour of fussing, Wen Yelan became even more drunk, almost leaning against Pei Yan, and his eyelids began to tremble.Pei Yan himself also drank a lot. Although he had a good capacity for drinking, he couldn’t stand this kind of drinking and his head felt a little dizzy.

Just as he was thinking about how to take Wen Yelan back to the tent quietly, Saihan came over with a smile, holding a wine bowl in his hand: “Mr. Pei, have another bowl! I won’t go home until I’m drunk today!”

Pei Yan smiled and waved his hand: “I can’t help it. Yelan is drunk. I have to take him back.”

“Hey, what time is it!” Several young herdsmen nearby shouted, “Dr. Wen should sleep here first when he is drunk! Mr. Pei, continue!”

Seeing that someone else was coming around, Wen Yelan suddenly tugged on Pei Yan’s sleeve, leaned into his ear, and whispered in a vague voice: “Pei Yan… let’s run.”
