So shocked that he forgot what he was going to do and just stood there in a bit of a daze.
What’s this … about?
“Zoey …”
The radio in the square suddenly sounded a familiar voice, and Zoey felt a shiver in her heart as she looked up at the source of the voice, as if the man was standing there, looking at her from a distance.
She knew … he must be watching himself …
“When you got here, and heard my voice, you must have guessed what I wanted to say to you …” His voice, in the night, was so clear, so melodious. Zoey only felt that, at this moment, the whole world was quiet, and she could only hear his voice, the His breathing …
“Zoey , marry me.” Listening closely, his voice, surprisingly, trembled a little, and coming through those airwaves, Zoey could almost hear him tense, like a child facing an exam.
She rippled a smile, but the corners of her eyes were damp. Instead of drying her tears, she just waited for his words to continue …
“This is the second time I’ve proposed to you. Whether it was at first, or now, my heart for wanting to be with you has never changed …”
“The time we wasted, it’s already a lot. So we can’t afford to waste any more … At least, I do … In life whether you call it addition or I call it subtraction, the one person I want … to hold your hand and walk through it. Will always be me …”
Zoey’s tears were getting bigger and bigger. Tonight’s proposal was something she had been looking forward to for a long time. He couldn’t afford to waste time. She too! She didn’t want to miss a single second of it with him anymore. …
On the radio, there was a long pause.
Sparkling fireworks, suddenly rising at the fountain, accompanied by the colorful lights, rushed up into the night sky, blossoming into one sparkling heart after another. Clusters of rose petals, falling from the air, a romantic rain of flowers.
Zoey Cried red eyes, thinking that at this moment he must have already come down from the radio room, she eagerly searched for that silhouette. Instead, she heard the radio, once again, his long-brewing voice, with a strong sentiment, a little dark, “I love you …”
Zoey was so happy that she cried, and a piece of flower petal fell on her shoulder and between her hair. The fragrance of the flowers, so beautiful … The fireworks in the air, so bright, illuminating the whole eye …
She thought to herself that she must be the happiest one in the world at this moment …
Jerry Xiao hugged her deeply into his arms and kissed the top of her head so fondly that his lips were trembling. Originally, he wanted to wait for a good preparation before proposing. But once he came back, he realized that he had no patience to wait any longer …
He’s going to marry her! Marry her immediately! Can’t wait even a minute longer …
Zoey turned to look into those deep eyes and tears came to her eyes once again.
“Foolish …” he sighed helplessly, his heart, melting into a puddle amidst her tears.
====
“Let’s get ready and have the wedding next month …” He continued to kiss her and continued to make arrangements.
Next month? But wouldn’t it be too soon to prepare anything?
Her words, they couldn’t be said. He changed his tone again, “It won’t take a month, I’ll see that it’s done in half a month …”
A month is a bit long for him …
Has waited so long, his limit, should only be half a month left … if not afraid to do too hurried, and aggravate her, he should not hesitate to put the wedding on tomorrow.
“You’re so bossy …,” she finally whimpered in protest, annoyed enough to bite his lip. Shouldn’t the woman’s advice be sought for this kind of thing? How did it all become his decision when it came to him?
“Yes, I’m really so domineering, domineering and want to possess everything about you. But …” he paused for a moment, his eyes gazing deeply at her, the rich sentiment almost melting her away, and making her willingly sink into this dominance of his. “However, you no longer have the opportunity to back out …”
“Yeah?” She raised an eyebrow provocatively, “Well try it then.”
Her provocation caused him, who had just been full of confidence, to panic all of a sudden. She literally tried to break away from his arms, and he immediately dragged her to her feet in panic, “Zoey , no trying!”
Zoey laughed at the panicked look on her face, and her heart ached with the slightest bit of pain. As a matter of fact, the separation for such a long time had been an extreme test and torture for both of them. She wasn’t the only one who was afraid that he would leave her, he must have been terrified of leaving them as well …
Settling back into his arms, he let him wrap his arms around his waist. Because of the great uneasiness, his force is heavy, some pain. But Zoey didn t even bother to struggle a little, just looked at him with tears in her eyes, “Fool … I teased you.”
“I really don’t seem to have a way back except to marry you …” She smiled away and wrapped her arms around his neck, gazing at him emotionally.
There is no way back because … one never leaves oneself a way back …
Without him, it was like being away from the air. She, sooner or later, would not be able to live …
Rose petals in the air, dancing with the wind, falling from mid-air. Hot air balloons, floating in the air.
Sura grabbed a large handful of flower petals and desperately sprinkled them down. In her excitement, she even plopped down outside the hot air balloon, her big eyes jawing round, “Eh, do you think Big Brother Zhan’s proposal was successful?”
Brother Zhan? This little ninny, she’s really self-conscious.
Owen Baker scooped her restless body in, “Don’t get on the edge. You’ll be sorry if you fall!”
“Oooh, should have brought a telescope! It’s got to work to live up to all the effort I’ve put in to sprinkle roses!”
“Sprinkling roses was your idea.” So it was a self-inflicted sin to go to any more trouble. And he, in fact, was going to follow along and sin. God knows, he was afraid of heights! But, there was no way to let this girl do this kind of hot air ballooning alone.
Sura smiled cheekily, “Isn’t it romantic? Girls love romance! Ya-san will definitely be taken.”
Owen Baker shook his head, “If Jerry actually read the confession as you wrote it, I’d say, hang on!”
Sura discontentedly nuzzled her little mouth, “The confession words are well written! Sentimental, imploring, romantic and not overly sentimental …”
Looking at the little face reflected in the fireworks, Owen Baker shook his head helplessly and grabbed a handful of petals to sprinkle down.
…
“Hey, we’ve already finished confessing, shouldn’t we pull out too?” By the fountain, crouching with shrunken heads were two figures. The two were pinching a lit cigarette in one hand.
Zac White was about to put out the cigarette in his hand when Sea Gu grabbed him, “Put the rest of it out. Saves us from having to be told to move it back again.”
“Fair enough.” Zac White nodded approvingly and followed Sea Gu to set off all the remaining fireworks.
“This Jerry Xiao is really stupid!” Sea Gu muttered as he put it on, depressed about him chasing Zoey away, it was only right to damage it twice. “In today’s high-tech era, I can’t believe he doesn’t know how to use technology to control it, letting us two idiots like us come here to put it in person.”
“He’s in a hurry to get ready.” Zac White in defense of the Deadheads.
“What’s the hurry? Afraid Zoey’s gonna run away?”
“It’s been such a long wait, and if we don’t marry him back, it’s a wonder he doesn’t suffocate.”
Zoey leaned round in Jerry Xiao’s arms and looked up at the sparkling night sky illuminated by fireworks.
The mood at this moment is as colorful as this night sky.
She thought … fortunately, this life met this man, otherwise, her life, will not become colorful.
“It’s a shame, it would have been perfect if the kids were here at this time.” Jerry Xiao exclaimed. KK should really be shown how his old man chases his kids and then he could learn from it.
“It was your idea for Sula to call and lie to me?” Zoey looked up at him. There was a smile in her eyes.
He shook his head hurriedly, “She took the idea.”
“The little gremlin. I’m so stupid for believing her skanky lies.” Zoey laughed out loud. How could Owen, who had so much sense of propriety, drink himself into a stupor?
“So all those roses, fireworks, all that romantic stuff, she got the idea?” Zoey narrowed her eyes.
In front of his own woman, Jerry Xiao really wants to take all the credit on himself, but … doing so seems to be really unrighteous.
So, just nodding meekly, “Uh-huh. She’s full of ideas. I was supposed to call Owen to discuss it, and when she found out, she took a bunch of ideas for it. And …”
He paused for a moment and fished a ball of paper out of his pocket, “The little girl even wrote me a confession to read.”
Zoey The corners of her mouth twitch as she looks at him sadly, “So all those words you just said to get me moving, you just read them off the top of your head?!”
Oooh, her tears, for nothing? “I’m not getting married, I’m not getting married! Not marrying!”
“Read it first.” Jerry Xiao was afraid that she would not marry. Jerry Xiao was afraid that she would not marry her, so he hurriedly hugged her and coaxed her gently in her ear. Zoey opened the ball of paper and squinted at the words on it in front of the bright spotlights.
Just see the paper ball, seriously written: “I sing to the ocean to listen to the song of longing, the ocean evaporated this wish to the sky, the sky and entrusted to the clouds, the clouds with the wind over the mountains, came to your door, turned into a small rain gently knocking on your window, do you know why the recent changes? All because I am thinking about you! I miss you miss you miss you miss you miss you …”
After that, there’s a long list of them. Zoey winced deeply, simply not daring to read any further, hurriedly handing the paper ball back, patting his chest exaggeratedly, “Luckily you didn’t read what this girl wrote …”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to wait to hear it and run away in fear. Jerry Xiao nodded his head in sympathy, “I think this little girl should be punking me!”
The seriousness of his speculation made Zoey laugh. Patting him on the shoulder, he reassured him, “I’m sure you won’t feel that way when you get to know her better later.”
Tonight.
Two people who had just proposed, eloped on the spot.
She didn’t go back, and neither did he. And didn’t bother a bit more with the man and woman in the hot air balloon and the two large men who were sprayed soaking wet behind the fountain.
