The first surprise…
Could there be a second one as well?
Nian Xiaomu lifted her head and looked at him in astonishment . Yu Yuehan merely smiled and did not say anything as he pulled out the chair before her like a gentleman and invited her to take a seat .
He sat across from her .
Very quickly, the waiter brought a very special candle holder to them .
After that, he carried a bouquet of freshly cut roses . As he walked forward, he inserted the roses one by one into the vase on the table .
Roses were still sent to their table at a steady flow even after he was done putting roses into the vase .
This carried on until all the tables and railings of the outdoor restaurant were filled with red roses .
The candlelight flickered and vied with the roses for brightness; it made one feel that they were situated in a sea of flowers…
"5,200 red roses are the second surprise . " The waiter who was in charge of placing the flowers handed the most brightly colored rose to Nian Xiaomu .
"…"
As Nian Xiaomu stared at the rose in front of her, her heartbeat started to speed up uncontrollably .
She tried very hard to steady herself .
"These steaks are for the both of you . Please enjoy . " The waiter brought two covered sets of steaks up and placed them neatly on the table .
Following which, he removed the metal covers .
Two steaks that were shaped in the form of a heart were laying silently on the white plates .
Even the petals that were used to decorate the dish were from a rose…
Pink bubbles seemed to pop out incessantly from one's heart as one watched on .
Was this the third surprise of the night?
How many surprises had he exactly prepared?
All of a sudden, a strong premonition formed in Nian Xiaomu's heart .
However, she had been disappointed a few times already . This time around, what if she was overthinking it again…
Nian Xiaomu took in a deep breath . Picking up the silverware, she prepared to cut into the steak .
She heard a sound the moment she sliced it .
It was so shocking that she paused in her movements .
Just when she was wondering if there would be a hidden ring in her steak, she suddenly realized that the sound did not come from her plate .
Instead, it came from the foot of a mountain that was very close to them…
Boom!
An explosion of splendid-looking fireworks rang out loudly in the night sky .
Rose designs blossomed in midair .
Boom!
The second salvo of fireworks followed closely and rose into the sky .
It was a double heart design this time .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Round after round, bright and resplendent fireworks erupted in the night sky .
Just like shooting stars, they lit up the entire evening sky .
By the end of the show, Nian Xiaomu could no longer make out the designs clearly, and all she could see was a sea of bright lights among the fireworks . As she rose calmly from her seat, she walked toward the man in front of her .
Just when she was so surprised that she couldn't utter a single word, he took out the Queen's Ring from his pocket .
Then, he knelt down on one knee slowly .
As he held the ring up, he said with a pause after every word, "Nian Xiaomu, marry me . From today onward, you will be my queen!"
"…"
Biting her lips, Nian Xiaomu willed herself to tilt her head upward and to restrain her tears from flowing down .
Her vision had already turned blurry .
After she heard what he said, everything that she had mentioned previously about how she would stay calm when he proposed was nowhere to be found .
She extended her hand out toward him and nodded her head violently, saying, "Yes, I do! I do!"
The corner of Yu Yuehan's mouth curved up; a rare, child-like smile that was filled with joy lit up his extremely handsome face .
As he slid the ring onto her ring finger, he stood up and stretched out his arms .
"Nian Xiaomu, I love you!"
"I love you too!" Nian Xiaomu had failed to control herself a while ago and was drenched in tears . As she dove straight into his embrace, she hugged him tightly and refused to let go .
At this point in time, the environment around them seemed to have vanished .
He only had eyes for her .
"Nian Xiaomu, I will never ever let you leave once you have entered my world . "
As he cupped her face with his hands, he planted a deep kiss on her lips…
