Chapter 294: I Do!

“Miss, would you be willing to marry me?”

Jiang Xiao, as everyone expected, took Song Qiuyu’s small hand wearing the diamond ring and gazed at her with deep affection as he spoke.

“Hmph.”

Song Qiuyu suddenly stopped cooperating.

She looked at the several phones raised in the air and the flashing flashlights, and belatedly realized that tonight’s proposal was probably going to circulate through various QQ groups!

‘She thought it would be better to just pass out.’

But the light of the diamond ring on her finger was impossible to ignore, so she steeled herself and gave a very quiet “mm.”

“What?”

Jiang Xiao acted as if he hadn’t heard.

Whether he really heard or not, Song Qiuyu knew she definitely wouldn’t let him lose face, so she bit her lip, took a shallow breath, and squeezed the words out from between her teeth.

“I said…”

The click click sounds were incessant.

She really felt like she was about to faint.

Even after three years, she still couldn’t get used to it.

She forced down the heat rising from deep inside her body, looked straight into Jiang Xiao’s eyes, her gaze firm.

“I do!”

After the graduation dinner ended, most people went to KTV to sing, but the three who had rushed back from the night couldn’t go.

They had to get back to the film set immediately. Plane tickets had already been prepared; they just needed to be there.

Song Qiuyu had contacted Xia Qi as quickly as possible and ended up going with her to see the three of them off at the airport.

“You really are something—sneaking back even keeping it from me!”

Xia Qi pulled Lin An aside and scolded him. As she spoke, she patted him up and down.

“How’s the food on that set? Are you starving?”

“Don’t worry. The director is pretty nice, and the meals are really good. No… actually, they’re too good.”

Lin An said it seriously.

Xia Qi looked at him suspiciously.

“Now that you’ve graduated, do you want to come to the set and check it out?”

Lin An tried to tempt her.

Xia Qi raised an eyebrow.

“There are plenty of good-looking actresses on that set, all around 16 or 17 years old…”

Lin An gave a sinister smile.

Successfully tempting her.

Seeing his roommate successfully lure his wife to the set, Xie Zhuran felt complicated.

If there were intimate scenes with actresses, this kind of behavior would most likely be asking for trouble.

He turned his head and saw another roommate being kissed on the cheek by his cute girlfriend—who was also another roommate—in what she thought was a very hidden move.

His eyes immediately reddened a little.

But only that much.

He took out his phone and looked at the chat page with Jiang Li, which hadn’t been in contact for a long time.

He lowered his eyes and let out a soft sigh.

Then he heard that other roommate do the same thing Lin An had done: “Xi’er, you don’t have anything to do next, right? Want to come to my set and take a look?”

Xie Zhuran raised his eyes.

Then Song Qiuyu glanced at the diamond ring on her finger and snorted lightly.

“I’d better not. I’m super sleepy right now. I just want to go back to bed.”

Jiang Xiao smiled helplessly.

Xie Zhuran silently praised Lao Song for being steady.

Soon, the four of them headed to the boarding gate.

Song Qiuyu took a cab alone back to the rental apartment. She went to the balcony.

Gazing at the starry sky, she raised her small hand to admire the diamond ring, recalling Jiang Xiao’s proposal. Slowly, she curled her small hand into a fist.

Now she had truly gotten Jiang Xiao, right? She belonged to him too. Nice, really nice… This was something she had been thinking about for almost four years. Her eyes grew a little wet.

She wiped the corner of her eye, leaned on the clean balcony railing, and stared blankly at the crescent moon high in the sky. Even though they were in different places, they would both see the same moon.

But how could the girl she was nine years ago have imagined that one day she would cry tears of joy because she was finally about to marry Jiang Xiao?

She closed her eyes and imagined for a moment.

The next time they met, they would prepare for their engagement.

Then she would put on a beautiful wedding dress and stand with Jiang Xiao, taking wedding photos.

The great photographer Aider said that if possible, he would like to help take their wedding photos. She really looked forward to how good they would look under his lens.

Carrying beautiful imaginings of the engagement, she rummaged out clean change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.

Over these three years, her body had developed fairly well—average and moderate.

But as her body gradually matured, she suddenly felt a bit nostalgic for her former small frame for some reason.

Even though it was flat as a board, walking was very easy.

She stared at her flawless self in the mirror, dazed for a moment.

Two seconds later, a smile curled at the corner of her mouth.

‘What a… perfect girl, right?’

‘In the future, she would also become a good mother! But just being a wife and mother wouldn’t satisfy her. There were so many things she wanted to do!’

‘Hmph hmph~’

After carefully washing her body, she skillfully dressed.

She dried her hair, lay down on the bed, and closed her eyes, trying to get sleepy.

But the events of tonight kept popping into her mind. Not only could she not sleep, she was even a bit excited.

She tossed and turned on the bed until she was tired, then stopped, picked up her phone, took a photo of the diamond ring, and posted it on her Moments.

With the caption: “Jiang Xiao, you belong to me!”

Her Moments naturally caused a stir.

“Finally not hiding it anymore!”

“Congratulations, congratulations! Wishing you a baby soon!”

“Huh? For real?”

“666.”

“When are you planning to get married?”

In response to the reactions on Moments, she directly switched back to Jiang Xiao’s chat page, her lips curving up as she continued editing.

So when Jiang Xiao, who had just arrived at the set by plane and was getting his makeup touched up, stole a moment to check his phone, he saw this message:

“Jiang Xiao, from today on, you truly belong to me!”

Seeing Song Qiuyu’s declaration of love for her husband, Jiang Xiao struggled not to laugh.

That was exactly what he wanted to say, so he unhesitatingly returned the same words.

Even though they had just parted, he was already missing Xi’er.

He wanted to go back and get engaged, get married, and then… consummate the marriage.

But not now.

Although after three years of hard work, they were much closer to the two-billion-dollar bride price, they were still far off. They both needed to work even harder.

The makeup artist’s expression was also helpless.

Though she was moved by Jiang Xiao’s consideration, being moved couldn’t fill her stomach.

“You might as well just laugh directly.”

“Thanks.”

With a ding, Song Qiuyu sent another new message.

Jiang Xiao glanced down.

[Wife C]: Hey, why haven’t you liked, commented, and shared yet? Hurry up, hurry up!

Because she had already attended Lin An and Xia Qi’s wedding, she thought she was familiar enough with the wedding process.

All she needed to do was follow the steps.

But what Song Qiuyu didn’t expect was that even just the wedding photo session would stump her.
