Jiang Huatong was originally thin, and his figure looked very thin, with a slender waist that was not even tight.
At this moment, Su Liancheng suspected that a gust of wind would blow her away.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he no longer suppressed himself as before. He adhered to the etiquette, stretched out his long arms, and took her into his arms.
His lips covered hers, tenderly and lingeringly.
There were some tears rolling down her lips, and there was a little bit of bitterness in the softness. After the bitter taste dissipated, he tasted a little bit of sweetness.
His behavior was beyond Jiang Huatong's expectations and was something she had never experienced before.
Her body was a little stiff, and she subconsciously wanted to push him away.
But when she pressed her hand on his chest, she suddenly didn't want to push him away.
All the pain in her life came from Jiang Mansion, and all the happiness came from meeting Tang Miaoxin.
When she first came to the First City, she did not expect to meet Su Liancheng, nor did she expect that she would be attracted to him.
This time she came to the First City, she actually came just for him.
She knew what she was thinking right now, and she knew what she wanted.
Now that he was holding him in his arms and kissing him like this, she knew clearly that she didn't resist at all in her heart, and she was even a little happy.
So she did the most daring and disrespectful behavior in her life:
She wrapped her arms around his neck.
When Su Liancheng kissed her, he was actually a little nervous. He knew that this behavior was too rude, and he was afraid of being rejected by her, and even more afraid of being scolded by her.
When her hand wrapped around him, his heart dropped.
He hugged her tighter and deepened the kiss.
Two people who were usually the most polite and well-behaved people were inseparably close to each other on this night, under this elm tree.
This may be the most daring thing Jiang Huatong has ever done in his life.
After a long time, Su Liancheng let her go, and she leaned against his chest and gasped softly.
She heard his frantic heartbeat and rapid breathing.
The corners of her lips raised slightly. It turned out that he was just like her, and he couldn't help himself.
Su Liancheng said softly: "Huatong, would you like to marry me?"
Jiang Huatong's face turned red unconsciously. She wanted to agree directly, but the etiquette engraved in her bones told her that it would be too unreserved to agree to him like this.
But she also knew how happy she felt when he said these words.
Su Liancheng didn't hear her answer and could vaguely guess her worries.
He said warmly: "I have been looking for you since you left the First City last time."
"I really didn't expect that you would go to the wilderness alone, nor did I expect that you would become the leader of the Qi Rebel Army."
"I have been waiting in the First City for you to come back after you figure it out. We have missed it for two years."
"Life is short, and youth is even more fleeting. We don't have too many two years to miss."
"So Huatong, don't reject me, okay? Give me a chance to take care of you."
"As for my parents, they have always respected my ideas and never made things difficult for me when it comes to marriage."
"Besides, you also know that my mother likes you very much."
Jiang Huatong raised her eyes to look at him. He was also looking at her at this moment, and the tenderness in his eyes seemed to overflow.
In the past two years, he has been working hard on the affairs of the First City, and there are already thin lines in the corners of his eyes.
There really can't be any further delay between them.
She said softly: "Okay."
Su Liancheng's hanging stone finally fell to the ground, and there was a smile in his eyes.
He hugged her tighter and said softly: "I'm so happy that you can agree to marry me!"
Jiang Huatong leaned on his chest and said, "Actually, I'm also very happy."
In the past two years, she had suffered a lot in the wilderness alone.
It's just that when she dreams back at midnight, she always dreams about him.
When she almost couldn't hold on anymore, she would think of him in her heart.
At that time, she didn't know how deep his feelings for her were, and she was also worried that the not-so-deep feelings in the first place would be worn away by the years.
Simply put, she is lucky.
When she was thinking of him, he was also thinking of her.
When she rejected all kinds of men around her, he also rejected the marriage arranged for him by his parents.
She lamented the wonder of this world more than once.
To put it into perspective, she didn't spend much time with Su Liancheng, and even less time alone.
Because he is a gentleman, she also abides by etiquette.
It is difficult for some people to develop affection when they are together every day.
And some people can know what the other person is thinking just by looking at each other, but they can't control their own heartbeat.
Su Liancheng said softly: "I will tell my father and mother about our affairs tomorrow."
"It's just that now that you have no family, and no elders around you, you will be somewhat wronged."
"This matter still needs to be formalized, and the betrothal gift I prepared for you must be delivered to you."
The smile in Jiang Huatong's eyes came out. She put her arms around his waist and said, "Okay."
When the two of them hugged each other under the tree, they didn't see two heads poking out from behind the colorful windows of the corridor not far away.
Hua Xinyu stretched out her hand and pushed Su Yan to the side: "You squeezed me."
Su Yan moved to the side and said, "I have been urging this kid to get married, but he refused to agree."
"I always thought it was because of the first marriage that the bride ran away and he didn't want to marry again."
"But I didn't expect that this silly boy has been waiting for Miss Jiang."
Hua Xinyu rolled her eyes at him: "You only care about the official affairs of the First City. When have you ever cared about your son?"
Su Yan was squeezed and became a little embarrassed: "I am the lord of the first city, and I have my responsibilities."
"In the past few years, there has been no peace among the countries. The First City is not only in turmoil, but it has been affected to some extent."
"If I don't make the First City stronger, how can I stop the wind and rain outside?"
Hua Xinyu glanced at him and said, "I didn't say it was wrong for you to be obsessed with official duties. I just think you can pay more attention to your son when you are free."
After she finished speaking, she sighed and said: "This kid in Liancheng is most like you, he has a boring temper."
"Although I had seen some signs of his liking for Miss Jiang before, I didn't know that his love for her was so deep."
"I really thought he would be a bachelor for the rest of his life. I also thought that after Lotte and Changping got married, I would have more children and adopt one to him."
"Now it seems that there is no need for it. He finally got the idea. It's really good. I'm very happy."
While they were talking, Su Liancheng and Jiang Huatong had separated over there. Judging from their posture, it seemed that Su Liancheng was going to send Jiang Huatong back to his room.
The old couple immediately stood up from the window, holding hands and quickly returned to the room.
After the two returned to the room, they smiled at each other.
