The scene in front of him is really not beautiful. A man with a delicate and heroic appearance knelt on one knee beside the bed and looked up at him with his fangs and claws on his head. Those eyes were still intoxicatingly crimson because of last night's madness, and the end of the eyes had an aura that had not yet faded away, and they had become red and swollen because of the crying just now, like a half-ripe peach.
The plain-colored ring was gently pinched by two fair and slender fingers, trembling visibly to the naked eye, showing how nervous the person holding him was.
Gu Peilang sat on the edge of the bed with an expressionless face, and lowered his eyes slightly to look at the man who was half-kneeling on the ground. The shadows of his long eyelashes concealed all the emotions in his eyes.
The room was so quiet that the silver needle fell to the ground, and even the wall clock on the wall seemed to stand still.
As time went by little by little, the hope in Su Jinyu's eyes was gradually shrouded in loss, and even the redness on his face faded away.
"You..." The vocal cords sounded hoarse and unpleasant as if they had been cut and forcibly glued together.
The man's silence gave him an answer he didn't want to hear. Su Jinyu almost trembled and said, "Aren't you willing?"
Gu Peilang looked at the despair that gradually filled his eyes, and knew that it was his silence that misunderstood the other party.
The fingers resting on his knees twitched nervously for a moment, and finally let go of the wrinkled fabric.
An inaudible sigh sounded in the room, and in Su Jinyu's wide eyes, the man sitting beside the bed got up and took a slight step forward, then knelt down in front of him in the same posture.
Su Jinyu blinked his eyes dully. Obviously, before he could recover from the shock of how the other party stood up, he heard Gu Peilang's low and cold voice softly ringing in his ears.
The man raised his hand and put his hand holding the ring into the palm of his hand. The upward curvature of the corners of his lips showed the gentleness that Su Jinyu was familiar with, and was somewhat helpless and doting.
"There is no one who doesn't want to propose to you the day before you originally planned to go home, but you are preempted by it. What do you say?"
Su Jinyu could understand every word that the other party said, but the meaning of the connection made him a little at a loss.
Gu Peilang saw that he still didn't return to his senses, sighed again, took the initiative to put the ring in the palm of his hand into the ring finger of his left hand, and then led the person to the reclining chair by the window and sat down.
Su Jinyu stared blankly at the man wearing a black nightgown walking around the room, and finally came to the two's suitcases and opened the black suitcase.
Gu Peilang's belongings and luggage were all packed by Su Jinyu himself. He was sure that there were no boxes inside until the zipper was closed.
But after watching the man take out a lake blue velvet box like magic, his brain couldn't think anymore.
Gu Peilang looked down at the box in his hand, and when he saw that the contents inside were intact, he slightly hooked the corner of his lips, and then turned around.
He was still kneeling on one knee, but this time he changed his identity.
Su Jinyu's eyes fell on his lap, and he blinked, and then the brain that was on strike resumed work.
"Your leg… "
"It's already recovered." Gu Peilang followed his gaze and glanced down, curling the corners of his lips, speaking calmly.
Su Jinyu: "..."
"I didn't tell you, I just wanted to surprise you."
The man opened the box in his hand, and Su Jinyu saw the ring lying quietly inside. It is also plain, but with some additional lake blue diamonds, which reflect a blurred luster under the light, like the stars in the night sky.
"I didn't expect that you gave me a surprise first," Gu Peilang took out the ring and held the hand of the person in front of him.
The warm palm made Su Jinyu shrink back subconsciously for a moment, and the next second he was held back by domineering.
Gu Peilang could feel the trembling of the other's hand, he lowered his head and lightly kissed on the back of the beautiful hand, and then raised his head to look at the other.
"I always feel that it is better for me to take the initiative to propose marriage."
Those dark and deep eyes were filled with so much tenderness and love, something that Su Jinyu once sneered at and abandoned like a shoe, and after losing it, he regretted it too much and yearned for it.
Such a bright love, warm and hot, Su Jinyu's eyes blushed hopelessly, tears blurred the handsome face in his eyes, he raised his hand in a panic and wiped it away: "I can also take the initiative..."
Gu Peilang smiled and said softly, "I know."
"After all, it's you who I liked first, and I should take the initiative in this matter."
Su Jinyu opened his mouth, he felt that the man's words were wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he could only stare at the other side blankly.
Gu Peilang raised his head slightly to look at him, his eyes were facing each other. While his eyes were burning with heat, the heart under his ribs was slightly sour.
He clearly had a lot to say, but at this time he realized that any language seemed too pale.
"I love you." Finally, the man said only these three words.
The three words, without any weight, fell heavily in Su Jinyu's ear.
It's not that he hasn't heard the other party say he loves himself, but that sentence has never moved him like this.
The hands in the palms trembled more and more violently, Gu Peilang met those red and steamy eyes, and gently, one by one, opened his fingers that were nervously curled up due to nervousness, and started to get wet and sticky sweat.
Su Jinyu was nervous and embarrassed, so he retracted it again, and Gu Peilang grabbed him.
"Hide what?"
"Sweaty..."
Gu Peilang looked at him so nervous that he couldn't even speak clearly, and the nervousness in his heart dissipated a little strangely.
"Ayu hasn't answered my question yet."
Su Jinyu: "Answer... what?"
Gu Peilang looked at him and said word by word, "I love you, what about you? Do you love me?"
Su Jinyu once said I love you countless times, facing the tombstone, facing the photo, in the early morning of a beautiful sunrise, in the evening of every sunset, but unfortunately men can no longer hear it.
Later, after being reborn, he also said many times about his likes and loves, but the man didn't seem to believe him. Even if he kept him by his side, the big reason was because of his last pity for him. Later, the two expressed their affection to each other. He said he liked it, and the man also said love. It seemed that everything was perfect, but there was always something missing.
Su Jinyu knows what it is. He has caused irreversible damage to the people in front of him. He believes that even if he holds a fresh beating heart and sends it to a man to say love, the other party will doubt him. He knows...
"I love... I love..." Warm tears fell along the eyelashes in clusters, Gu Peilang looked at him crying and said love, silently raised the corners of his lips, those dark and deep eyes In the eyes, there is the whole galaxy.
