Li Zong knew that Ruan Bai loved him, but not as much as he loved her.
Therefore, in order to prevent the proposal from being unsuccessful, after thinking about the proposal at noon, he asked his parents to pick up his grandparents, aunts and uncles.
There are more than a dozen people, including the elderly and children.
After following the Li family's parents upstairs, Ruan Bai was shocked the moment the Li family's door opened...
Li Ni looked at the room full of relatives and children as if she had seen a ghost.
"Come on, come on." It was Li Zong's second aunt who spoke. When she saw the girl who looked the same as in the photo standing at the door, she immediately went to help her mother and said excitedly: "Xiao Zong's girlfriend, Ruan Bai,
We're at the door. There's a beauty here. Mom, please come over and take a look..."
Ruan Bai was shocked.
"Come in." Li Zong looked at her gently and took her hand.
Out of politeness, Ruan Bai had to try hard to smile to all his relatives.
Li Zong's grandmother held Ruan Bai's hand from beginning to end, holding it in her palm, and patted it gently every time he said a word.
A premonition that was neither good nor bad came over Ruan Bai's mind.
Searching for Li Zong's figure, Ruan Bai found that he was leaning on the balcony smoking, with his hands in his pockets, looking tense, as if he was carrying something heavy in his heart.
The dinner was particularly sumptuous.
Li Ni said: "I have never had such a good meal during the Chinese New Year..."
Sitting at the main table were Li Zong's grandparents and parents.
Li Zong and Ruan Bai also took their seats.
Others are at another table.
During the dinner, we just chatted about some household matters.
Ruan Bai had almost finished her meal and was about to put down her chopsticks when Li Zong suddenly stared into her eyes and called her: "Come with me."
The two of them came to the second bedroom.
Li Zong's room.
"What's the matter?" Ruan Bai asked in a very gentle voice, like the soft sunshine in the middle of the morning but not yet noon.
Li Zong looked at her with firmness and tenderness in his eyes. He held her hand and said with a trembling voice: "I want to apologize to you. My behavior this morning was my fault."
"I don't care about it anymore."
Ruan Bai said.
"Thank you, thank you for understanding my fear." Li Zong reached out and took her into his arms, closed his eyes, and said feebly: "You don't know how afraid I am of losing you."
Ruan Bai was silent.
Li Zong added: "You know, I fell in love with you very early, from the first time you came to my house, when you were only in the first year of high school... I feel guilty for liking such a young person.
Girls. I also tried to like other girls, but I didn't feel it. They always made me bored. Then I thought, you will grow up one day, I just wait quietly."
"Finally, when you grow up, we have the opportunity to study abroad together."
"The bad past you experienced, when you frankly told me about it, to be honest, it gave me a big blow..."
Hearing this, Ruan Bai's body trembled uncontrollably.
He still cares after all!
"Listen." Li Zong hugged her tighter and said, "This blow is not that you are unclean, but that I blame myself. I hate that I didn't enter your life from the beginning, and I hate that I didn't protect you.
Good for you and your life will be worry-free."
"Xiao Bai, you have to understand that there is no other man in this world who fell in love with you earlier and loves you more firmly than me..."
Perhaps because he was really afraid of losing, Li Zong's voice gradually turned from trembling to choking when he spoke.
It would be a lie to say that I was not impressed at all.
Ruan Bai felt soft in his heart after hearing this.
God does not disappoint her, there will eventually be someone who treats her sincerely.
Ruan Bai is trying to forget everything in the past. This is what the powerful and mysterious man wanted back then.
I still remember that the housekeeper once said to her: "I wish you happiness for the rest of your life."
Afterward, Ruan Bai thought, after what he had gone through, would it really be possible for him to be peaceful for the rest of his life?
But you have chosen the path you have taken, and you will not regret it. You are lucky to be happy for the rest of your life. If you are not happy, you cannot blame anyone.
Ruan Bai's idea of peace is not that she wants to be rich and powerful, but she just hopes to have someone who loves her, understands her, has the same three views, takes care of each other, and grows old together like this.
This person is undoubtedly Li Zong.
Ruan Bai came out of his arms, looked at him and said, "Don't be insecure. I'm ashamed of you. I'm not good. No man will notice me."
Li Zong couldn't help but think of the bouquet of flowers flown by air.
"Even if there is, I can still control myself." Ruan Bai said seriously.
Li Zong gained confidence and took her hand again.
The two of them went out.
Ruan Bai was about to walk towards the sofa, but Li Zong held her in his arms and stopped in the middle of the living room.
"What are you doing?" Ruan Bai raised his head and asked Li Zong, whose expression suddenly became strange, with his eyes.
At this time, facing many relatives and elders, Li Zong took out a black velvet jewelry box from his trouser pocket and opened it towards her!
"Wow, it's so sudden!" Li Ni couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed.
No wonder I called so many relatives, it turned out that I was proposing!
Li Zong knelt down on one knee in front of Ruan Bai, and in front of the whole family and elders, he begged: "Marry me, Ruan Bai, and truly become my beloved relative and my closest lover like my parents and family...
…”
Ruan Bai: "..."
She had never imagined the scene of being proposed to, and she even felt that she was still some distance away from getting married.
"Promise, son!" Li Zong's mother became anxious when she saw Ruan Bai's delay in making any move.
Li Ni went to poke Ruan Bai.
There is no choice.
From the day he nodded and agreed to fall in love with Li Zong, Ruan Bai knew that if nothing unexpected happened, it would only be a matter of time before he married Li Zong...
…
After chatting with Li Zong's grandparents until around nine o'clock in the evening, Ruan Bai was able to escape and go home.
Li Zong drove the car to the door of her community.
Ruan Bai got off the car.
"Just send it here, I want to walk by myself."
She had gone through too much this day, with ups and downs, and she needed to be alone for some quiet time.
"Okay, get some rest early." Li Zong didn't push her too hard.
After the two said goodbye to each other, Ruan Bai watched his Audi Q5 drive away.
The street lights in the community were on and it was not dark. Some people exercising were still walking slowly around the community.
Ruan Bai walked towards the building where he lived. When he reached the door, he reached into his bag to find the key to the door of the building outside. At this time, a boy's soft and expectant voice rang out: "Auntie!"
She turned back and looked where the sound came from.
This sight made Ruan Bai freeze on the spot.
Behind the street lamp, two people, one large and one small, were standing solemnly.
Mu Shaoling's three-dimensional facial features were hidden deep in the extremely dim light, and he stared at her with an unattractive expression. In his cold eyes, he seemed to be holding back a lot of temper.
The little guy bit his lip, looking pitiful. He was no longer as arrogant as the last time he saw him in the hotel in City H. He looked at his father and then at Ruan Bai.
"What...are you doing here?" Ruan Bai asked confused.
