Chapter 376 - Will You Be My Only Woman Forever???
At Half-past one...
After strolling the city for a whole day, Xiao Li and Shen Yi returned to the villa late at night.
The lights were turned off and there were no workers or guards around, which Xiao Li naturally failed to notice as she was too tired.
The moment she opened the door and stepped inside, she heard a loud bang, almost kicking her soul out of her body.
With a look of fright, she looked at the golden confetti shot at her.
Standing behind, Shen Yi rubbed his temples helplessly when he saw his bodyguard's arrangements.
No wonder those guys were still single. The way they made the arrangement might not only not impress the girl but it might probably scare her away.
Well, now that he has come to this stage, he could only sigh helplessly and move forward.
Stepping forward, he circled his arms around her waist. Looking at his frightened girlfriend, he nodded his head and signaled to move forward.
With Shen Yi right next to her, Xiao Li was no longer scared. Inhaling a deep breath, she followed Shen Yi with a look of curiosity.
After passing through the stairs, Shen Yi brought her to the back garden.
The moment they reached the back garden, Xiao Li's widened in shock.
A floor below, on the ground, several candles were lined in the shape of 'I heart You' with rose petals scattered everywhere.
Light lamps were installed on the vast garden, brightening the whole garden.
Seeing the arrangement, a thought flashed in Xiao Li's mind. Nervousness flashed out of nowhere, making her sweat and increase her heartbeat.
Standing at the side, Shen Yi took in all the expressions that flashed on her face.
Though they were already together, he was still nervous, afraid that she might suddenly not want him. But he couldn't drop the things just because he was nervous.
Taking in a deep breath, he grabbed Xiao Li's hand gently and motioned her to follow him.
Pulling her arm gently, he led her down the stairs to the garden and walked towards the center, right before the heart.
Too nervous about what was going to happen next, Xiao Li did not dare to look at Shen Yi and averted to her gaze, pretending to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
But who knows, Shen Yi would use her inattention to grab a bouquet from somewhere.
Just as she did not get any response, Xiao Li turned her head only to see Shen Yi kneel on one leg right before her.
Shocked, it was too late for Xiao Li to react. Under her nervous and shocked gaze, Shen Yi held the rose bouquet in his hand and confessed.
"Little Sunny, sorry for not being at your worst time. Sorry for abandoning you and leaving you all alone to face this cruel world. Sorry for not protecting you when you were bullied, when you met with danger when you needed me the most. To atone my sin, will you give me the chance to take good care of you, to pamper you, to protect you, and to treat you like my queen? Will you be my only woman forever?"
tears rolled down her eyes as past events flashed in her mind. Yes, she had once hated Shen Yi for abandoning her, leaving her alone to face this harsh world but since she grew up and started to think deeper, she knew that she had no right to hate him because he had never once promised to do that and he had no obligations to do that. But he still did a great favor to her.
When she lost her mother, when she felt abandoned and was in despair, it was him who walked into her life like a candle and lit her once dark world.
To make her happy, he even had to sell his toys without his grandma's knowledge just to buy her candies. To not let her get bullied or tarnish her character, he did not mind when those little boys thought of him as a girl. When she was ill after losing her mother, he stayed by her side the whole night to take care of her even though he was in poor health.
the little Shen Yi, even though wasn't obliged to do or never promised her anything still took care of her soo well, and now with him promising to treat her better, she knew he would fulfill his promise no matter at what situation.
Tears of joy rolled down her eyes as she covered her mouth and cried. With her eyes brightening with joy, Xiao Li nodded her head and answered with a trembling voice "Y-yes" and reached for the bouquet.
Finally hearing the answer he had dreamed of for very long, there was a burst of happiness in his heart.
Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a small jewelry box. Inside the box lay a customized platinum ring with diamonds inlaid. Though it looked simple, it costs a great deal.
Pulling out the ring, Shen Yi held it to his right and stretched his left palm open.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Li stretched her hand and placed it on his palm.
Sliding the ring into her left finger, Shen Yi held her hand and kissed the ring gently.
Standing up, he pulled Xiao Li into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Right at the moment, several orange lights appeared in the sky
When Xiao Li and Shen Yi looked up at the sky, they saw numerous lanterns appearing in the sky, decorating the dark sky like little stars.
There was a smile on Shen Yi's face when he saw the hard work his subordinate had done for his love life. Inwardly he decided to award them beautifully.
turning back to Xiao Li whose eyes was shining bright as she watched a lantern, there was a loving smile on Shen Yi's face.
Feeling his piercing gaze, Xiao Li turned her head to meet his loving gaze. Feeling bashful, she smiled brightly.
Slowly raising his hand to hold her rosy cheeks, Shen Yi gently ran his thumb across her eyes to wipe off the tear stains before bowing down to kiss her lips.
Raising her head, Xiao Li closed her eyes and readily accepted his kiss.
The kiss was gently filled with love, then it started to grow intense slowly. As the kiss turned passionate, Shen Yi moved his hands from her face to the back of her head while his other moved to the back of her waist and pulled her closer. Tightening his grasp around her waist, he parted for a moment and gasped for breath before bowing his head again to continue the kiss.
the initial gentle kiss slowly started to turn passionate and then it intensified until a raging fire started to burn in Shen Yi's heart.
Gasping for breath, he tightened his grip around her waist. Lowering his head until his forehead touched hers, he looked into her eyes with his eyes filled with a burning desire and asked hoarsely "Can I?"
