"Thank you children." Zhao Xinyuan was very touched.
"Hey, where did daddy go? Why didn't he see anyone?" Gong Ruochu asked.
Su Yunnuo sent a message to Jun Shaoqing to indicate that they could come back.
Ten minutes later, Jun Shaoqing came back, but Gong Chengyu did not come back with him.
"Husband, where is dad?" Su Yunuo asked.
"We're going to prepare a surprise. Let's look forward to it together?" Jun Shaoqing leaned close to Su Yunnuo's ear and whispered.
"Surprise? What surprise?"
Jun Shaoqing made a shushing gesture, signaling Nono to keep her voice down.
After a while, Gong Chengyu came in from outside, holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand.
He was planning to propose to Zhao Xinyuan. In fact, he had wanted to propose to her for a long time, but he had never found a suitable opportunity and was worried that Xinyuan would refuse.
The children were all here today, and she happened to be sick and needed someone to take care of her. Gong Chengyu thought this was an excellent opportunity.
Zhao Xinyuan saw that he was holding flowers in his hands, and she probably knew what he wanted to do. He made a fuss and called all the children over, but it turned out that he had an ulterior motive.
Su Yunnuo was very excited when she saw her father holding flowers. Just now she was thinking about how she should give her father some advice to get him to marry her mother as soon as possible, but she didn't expect that her father didn't need to give him any advice at all.
"Xinyuan, twenty-four years have passed since we met today. We have missed twenty-one years, which takes up a quarter of our lives. In the remaining time, I want to love you well."
Gong Chengyu knelt down on one knee in front of Zhao Xinyuan and took out a blue box from his pocket. Inside the box was a diamond ring.
The diamond ring was prepared twenty-one years ago and has been kept until now. The style is relatively simple, but it exudes eternal light.
Gong Chengyu took out the ring, and Zhao Xinyuan was so excited that she shed tears. She recognized this diamond ring, it was her favorite one at the beginning, but at that time, Gong Chengyu had no money to buy it for her.
Unexpectedly, he bought it secretly and still keeps it to this day.
"Xin Yuan, will you marry me and let me take care of you? Let's buy groceries and cook together, watch the sun rise and set, and travel around the world together."
"Wow, so romantic."
"Marry him! Marry him!"
"Mom, for the sake of Dad's proposal, just agree to it."
A group of children cheered for their father.
Xiaotuanzi came in from nowhere, and one person shouted the loudest: "Agree, agree! Grandma, agree!"
Zhao Xinyuan was so excited that she didn't know what to say. Besides agreeing to him, what else could she say?
Zhao Xinyuan nodded slowly, Gong Chengyu put the ring on her, and a group of people cheered.
"It's great, I can finally call mom openly." Gong Canyang, a grown man, was so excited that he almost cried.
"Mommy, will you love me as much as you love Nono?" Gong Ruochu also asked with red eyes.
"At the beginning of the meeting, we were all a family."
Su Yunnuo was so moved that she cried and leaned in Jun Shaoqing's arms to secretly wipe her eyes. It was not easy for her father and mother to be together. They had missed each other for twenty-one years, and now they were finally able to stay together for a long time. She felt really sorry for her.
They feel happy.
"Mom and Dad, when are you going to get the certificate?" Su Yunnuo asked with a smile.
"I think it's better to choose a day than to hit it. Let's do it tomorrow. Tomorrow is Monday, and the Civil Affairs Bureau happens to be at work." Jun Shaoqing also expressed his opinion.
"There are a lot of people on Monday. Let's get up early tomorrow and go over and help them line up." Gong Chengyu also said.
Gong Chengyu: "..."
Zhao Xinyuan: "..."
The two parties involved were not in a hurry, but the children were so anxious that they wished they could get married where they were.
Her mother was fine, and Su Yunnuo was relieved.
"Baby, who did you come with? Where are your grandparents?"
"Grandpa, grandma, are outside."
Jun Shaoqing's parents didn't know who they heard about Noonuo's mother being hospitalized, so they quickly brought Tuanzi to the hospital. They happened to see Gong Chengyu and Zhao Xinyuan's proposal outside, but they didn't go in to disturb them.
Hua Mingying is a very emotional person. When she saw Gong Chengyu proposing to Zhao Xinyuan, she felt envious.
"Jun Zhanxi, you have never proposed to me. I was so stupid. I married you out of nowhere."
Jun Zhanxi: "..."
Jun Zhanxi was not as romantic as his son, and prepared all kinds of surprises to please his wife. They were not as open-minded at that time as they are now. He could hold Hua Mingying's hand and be excited for several days.
What Hua Mingying liked was his sincerity, unlike other men's rhetoric. She was the one who proposed it when they received the certificate.
"My mother-in-law, my father-in-law, I really congratulate you. It's really not easy." Hua Mingying wished them all the best from the bottom of her heart.
"In-laws, you are here too." Zhao Xinyuan smiled, and she was even a little embarrassed with so many people watching.
"Are you feeling well? What did the doctor say?"
"It's nothing serious. He could have been discharged from the hospital. Gong Chengyu really alarmed everyone." Zhao Xinyuan gave Gong Chengyu a complaining look.
"Your health is important, but your happiness is more important. We are all waiting to drink your wedding wine."
Zhao Xinyuan was discharged from the hospital that night. Gong Chengyu wanted her to move in with him, but Zhao Xinyuan refused, so Gong Chengyu had to come over to stay with her.
When a group of children saw their father proposing, they were naturally embarrassed to disturb their world.
In the evening, Gong Chengyu cooked himself a sumptuous dinner for Zhao Xinyuan.
When they first got together, Gong Chengyu didn't know how to cook, so Zhao Xinyuan cooked and Gong Chengyu washed the dishes every time.
Gong Chengyu adopted two children, so he learned all kinds of skills.
"Does it taste okay?" Gong Chengyu asked with a smile.
Zhao Xinyuan nodded, Gong Chengyu's craftsmanship was clearly better than hers.
After dinner, Zhao Xinyuan wanted to clear away the dishes, but Gong Chengyu didn't let him.
"Just rest and leave these things to me."
Every time Gong Chengyu came over to eat, he was the one who cleaned up the dishes, which made Zhao Xinyuan feel very uncomfortable.
"Let me do it. You are a grown man and let you do this."
"Xin Yuan, I am your man. Men exist to protect their women. What does it matter if I wash the dishes?"
Zhao Xinyuan didn't speak, but her heart felt warm. Gong Chengyu also said similar things in the years when they were together. Moreover, he didn't just talk.
After dinner, the two took a walk in the yard for a while. Gong Chengyu had no intention of leaving, and Zhao Xinyuan did not rush him.
There are his clothes and toiletries at home, and this is not the first time he has spent the night here.
"Xinyuan, are you ready with your household registration book?"
Zhao Xinyuan didn't speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.
After taking a shower in the evening, Zhao Xinyuan went to bed first.
After Gong Chengyu took a shower, he wanted to lift the quilt and go to bed, but Zhao Xinyuan didn't let him get up.
"Honey, we have to get the certificate, do I still have to sleep on the sofa?"
Zhao Xinyuan didn't speak, and Gong Chengyu said again: "Honey, the sofa is too cold, so let me sleep on the bed."
