Jiang Se had never been so sure of her feelings before. She asked Pei Yi to kneel, and he knelt down without even asking "why".
Throughout her life, there will never be another man who can love her, indulge her, accompany her, take her so seriously, enter her heart, and make her feel distressed like he does.
She reached for the bag behind her, unzipped it, and pulled out a box.
The sun poured in through the large transparent windows, illuminating the church gently. The figures of the devout believers in the front row bowing their heads in prayer looked particularly holy under such circumstances. The faint sound of the choir came from afar. Jiang Se opened the box, revealing two red diamond rings.
She looked at Pei Yi's handsome face with a smile. As he grew older, his edges and corners became more distinct. The childishness and rebelliousness on his face were replaced by calmness and determination. He was not particularly delicate, but surprisingly to her liking.
"Mr. Pei Yi."
Her voice was neither hurried nor slow, and at this moment it sounded soft and melodious:
"Will you marry me? No matter what I look like, no matter my status, rich or poor, will you marry me?"
As she asked this question, she reached out and took out a lady's ring from the box and handed it to Pei Yi.
He was stunned, his whole body tense, his hands holding her legs were a little tight, his palms were still shaking slightly.
This fearless boy was now at a loss, and was so excited that he could not speak.
"Shither..."
His lips trembled as he held the two words on his lips, feeling an overwhelming sense of surprise coming towards him.
Pei Yi could hear the sound of flowers blooming in his heart at this moment, and the occasional 'cooing' of pigeons above the church was as beautiful as the sound of nature.
The exquisite relief on the wall witnessed the scene of him being proposed to. When the believers sitting in front heard Jiang Se's words, they all turned their heads in surprise.
When he saw Pei Yi kneeling on the ground and Jiang Se sitting on a chair holding a ring, this foreign man with a high nose and blue eyes could understand the situation at a glance, even if he didn't understand what Jiang Se said before, and a blessing smile appeared on his face.
"Shither..."
Pei Yi was so excited that he didn't know how to react. Even when he walked into this solemn and dignified church, he was thinking deep in his heart about how to propose to her and how to give her an unforgettable proposal ceremony.
She is the ray of sunshine he keeps in his heart and deserves his best treatment.
But when he was still hesitating about how to start the conversation, he didn't expect Jiang Se to suddenly propose to him.
This huge feeling of happiness overwhelmed him, and he felt a little sore in his eyes.
"Will you marry me? No matter what I look like, no matter what my status or position changes, no matter if I am poor or rich, will you marry me?"
Pei Yi was speechless, so Jiang Se asked again.
The believers sitting in the first row stood up and looked at this romantic scene. Seeing Pei Yi just staring at Jiang Se infatuatedly, he showed a look of understanding and started to applaud.
"Sir, your lover is waiting for your answer, promise her."
The sunlight refracted through the colored window shone on the diamond ring, emitting a dazzling luster, but at this moment Pei Yi's eyes could not move away from Jiang Se's face.
She was still waiting for his answer, and that gentle face overlapped with his impression of Feng Nan.
No matter how her name, appearance, or identity changes, in his heart she is still the gentle girl she once was.
"You know, in my heart, no matter what you look like, no matter who you are, whether you are rich or poor, healthy or sick, beautiful or ugly, you are my girl."
His expression was so serious that it was moving, no less than the believers who had prayed to God before, and it seemed as if tears were about to fall from his eyes.
"I should be the one proposing."
He lowered his voice, like the strings of a cello, and the tail note was still trembling when touched lightly:
"I want to marry you, I want to wake up with you in my arms every day, I want you to see me in your eyes, I want to keep you in my heart."
He held Jiang Se's hand with the ring in his palm and wrapped it tightly:
"Although there are no flowers and candles, there is applause as a witness. In this church, in front of the gods, I beg you to marry me."
He is an atheist, but at this moment Pei Yi felt that there must be a god in the world, so he sent her to him so that his heart could be more fulfilled.
He even hoped that a god would appear at this moment so that he could take out his heart and show it to her.
Pei Yi said this, and put Jiang Se's hand to his lips, his voice full of nostalgia:
"I will stand in front of you when there is wind and rain, and I will not let you feel sad. I will never hide anything from you. Everything I have belongs to you, Sese, including me and my heart."
Even if she wanted his life, he would give it to her without hesitation.
"Please marry me. I look forward to having you by my side in the future."
Having said that, he took out the ring from Jiang Se's hand. Pei Yi could see that this ring was the red diamond from Honghua that the two of them had chosen.
In fact, he was a little annoyed. After he chose the diamond, Hong Kong China was very slow in handling the matter. Although he also hoped that the important items related to his life should be treated more carefully, Pei Yi felt a little regretful that when he proposed, he was missing a pair of rings that he had personally selected.
But he didn't expect Jiang Se to bring the pair of rings.
The small ring held on his fingertips seemed so light and almost weightless, but he looked solemn, as if he was holding a thousand-pound object.
He raised his face and his eyes met Jiang Se's. Her eyes were pure and ethereal, as if all the beauty was taken in those two glittering eyes. At this moment, they were covered with mist, appearing hazy.
The believers were still applauding, and Jiang Se had already stretched out her hand. Her fingertips were delicate and white, and the skin at her joints was flawless and soft, like young bamboo shoots. Pei Yi took two deep breaths, then tremblingly took the ring and gently put it on her ring finger.
This scene was so beautiful that it stimulated his senses. He held Jiang Se's face with both hands, stood up and wanted to kiss her, but Jiang Se pushed his shoulders with her hands and put some force on his half-squatting knees.
"Shither..."
Pei Yi was a little at a loss, but Jiang Se's face was slightly red, with her hair hanging down on both sides of her cheeks. Pei Yi held one of her hands, and with the other hand he put the ring box on his lap and took out the other ring from it:
"Put your hand out."
Her rosy cheeks were filled with longing, the corners of her pouty lips were smiling as sweet as honey, and beneath her delicate eyebrows were a pair of warm and silent eyes. Pei Yi was stunned by the sight.
"Don't look stupid."
Her face turned even redder, and she stepped on Pei Yi's knees with a little force, hoping to bring him back to his senses as soon as possible. (To be continued)
