Chapter 754: Chapter 755: Be Serious, I’m Proposing
Xia Yangyang felt both amused and annoyed.
Is Gu Qichen for real?
Under such circumstances, in such an environment, is he seriously proposing?
Xia Yangyang said, “Gu Qichen, that’s not how you propose. You don’t have a proposal ring, there’s no music, and you aren’t kneeling on one knee like they do on TV, I can’t accept this proposal.”
Gu Qichen replied, “Wait a moment.”
Then he opened the car door and got out.
Xia Yangyang had no idea what he was going to do.
After a short while, Gu Qichen came back.
He was holding a ring made out of some unknown wildflowers.
Then he moved the car seats back, and turned on the car’s music.
He knelt down on one knee, “Miss Xia, now we have the ring, the music, and the traditional one knee proposal you see on TV. Will you marry me now?”
Xia Yangyang was truly amused.
Gu Qichen could even make a ring out of wildflowers and grass! Surprisingly, it was quite beautiful.
Xia Yangyang said, “I really didn’t know that you had this talent.”
“Be serious, Miss Xia. I’m proposing to you.”
The song playing in the car was actually “Breaking Up Happily”.
Gu Qichen was infuriated.
He asked him to change his car playlist to some more sentimental songs, but he had ended up with this song instead.
Gu Qichen turned off the music and said irately, “Anyway, I have already locked the car doors. Until you say yes, no one’s getting out.”
“Mom, you might as well say yes.”
Xia Ye couldn’t stand it anymore: “We have a grown child, what else can you do?”
Giving Xia Ye a thumbs up, Gu Qichen cursed.
Xia Yangyang was surprised, “Why are you still awake?”
Xia Ye yawned, “I was about to fall asleep, but the sudden brake woke me up.”
Gu Qichen urged, “Our son has spoken, you might as well say yes.”
Xia Yangyang really admired Gu Qichen’s whimsy.
Suddenly acting out .
In the end, she had no choice but to extend her right hand.
Gu Qichen slipped the floral ring onto Xia Yangyang’s ring finger.
Then he announced: “Very good. Congratulations Mr. Gu, the proposal is successful, now the groom-to-be may kiss the bride-to-be.”
Having said that, he stood up, bending over to kiss Xia Yangyang.
Xia Yangyang pushed him, “What are you doing? Xia Ye is still here!”
Xia Ye obediently lay down and even closed his eyes, “Mom, don’t worry, this time I’m really going to sleep.”
Taking advantage of Xia Yangyang’s inattention, Gu Qichen lightly pecked her lips.
Then, satisfied, he returned to the driver’s seat to continue driving.
Xia Yangyang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
When did this guy become so childish?
However, Xia Yangyang looked at the ring on her ring finger and felt warmth in her heart.
She thought it was more valuable than any expensive jewelries.
But she deliberately let out a sigh.
Xia Yangyang commented, “When we got married before, there was no proposal. Now, just a simple proposal and I’ve sold myself cheaply again. It’s such a shame.”
Gu Qichen laughed and said, “Don’t worry, this is just a rehearsal. I will give you a memorable proposal and a grand wedding in the future.”
With Gu Qichen saying that, Xia Yangyang became worried, “Hold your horse, Gu Qichen. Don’t mess around anymore. I’ve already agreed. No need for another proposal or wedding. Let’s keep it on the low, I don’t want to attract media attention, as an old married couple, we don’t need to put on a show.”
Gu Qichen raised his eyebrow, “That won’t do. Plenty of people would still be coveting you without a proper wedding.”
In the end, Gu Qichen only agreed, after Xia Yangyang begged and coaxed him, to keep their relationship secret for now.
Actually Xia Yangyang understood that Gu Qichen was a very private person by nature, not fond of public attention on them.
Gu Qichen just had too much an insecurity.
Xia Yangyang gripped Gu Qichen’s hand and seriously said, “I’ve decided, I’m going to resign from my job in the United States, so we can live together and start over.”
Gu Qichen’s body froze noticeably.
For a long time, as the car drove on, Gu Qichen didn’t say a word.
Just as they were about to reach home, Gu Qichen suddenly said, “Yangyang, thank you.”
