Chapter 1572 - Success at proposing marriage
Xia Wan sipped the wine and felt extremely relaxed, as if her heart was floating.
"Xia Wan, can you tell me what happened that night six years ago?" Yi Xi begged in a low voice.
Xia Wan's taste of the red wine froze her body. She did not know if it was the wine, or what happened that night, making her blush deeply.
"That night, I drank too. I was a bit drunk, so I'm not sure." Yi Xi did not want to scare her, so her tone was so gentle and intoxicating, carrying a sense of antic.i.p.ation.
Xia Wan put down the wine cup, her gaze became a little blurry, and she held onto the hair on her forehead for a few seconds to recall.
"At that time, I was taking a course on perfume development. Your country is a big country that produces perfume, and it is also one of the top perfume production countries in the world. I wanted to come here to learn more about it."
Xia Wan said as she supported her chin with her hand. At that time, her dreams were still so beautiful when she was young.
Her eyes, under the dim light, revealed a layer of a blurry aura. Her red lips moved slightly, causing Yi Xi to feel a wave of thirst.
"And then? Did you find what you were looking for here? " Yi Xi asked curiously.
Xia Wan thought for a moment, then shook her head, "At that time, I did not ask my family for money, because my father left when I was ten, and I lived a life of mutual reliance with my mother. I earned some money from doing odd jobs in the country, and at that time, I did not contact my aunt, thinking that I could learn to return home on my own."
Xia Wan also felt comfortable being surrounded by this kind of gaze.
"I worked in a pizza store here. At that time, there were a few men who frequently came to the shop dressed in fas.h.i.+onable clothes. They also liked to tease me, so I ignored them at that time."
Hearing this, Yi Xi immediately asked worriedly, "Did they hara.s.s you or hurt you?"
Xia Wan laughed and shook her head, "No, but it's also because of them that happened that night."
Yi Xi slightly froze for a moment, but at the same time, he also let out a sigh of relief.
"Once, it was very late. You must be about to give up! My boss received an order from a pizza for take-out, and also asked me to deliver it. I was in the shop at the time, and the boss saw that it was a large order, so he insisted on me sending it over. "
A hint of pity could not help but flash past Yi Xi's eyes. He really wanted to get to know her at that time and prevent her from suffering so much.
Xia Wan said, then picked up the bottle of red wine and took a sip, because the thing that she was about to say, was rather shameful.
After she took a sip of the red wine, she looked at Yi Xi's antic.i.p.ating gaze and continued, "I took the pizza and rode a bicycle. The journey was long, and it was in front of a high-cla.s.s villa that I have never been to before, so I called the person who ordered the food and was sent in. I was helpless because of the pizza in our shop.
Yi Xi thought about how he would appear there one day because the person hosting the banquet was one of his university cla.s.smates. When he was young, everyone was very casual.
However, Yi Xi rarely attended such a crowded gathering, with his ident.i.ty, he was not suitable to come to this place. That night, he was toasted by a group of people, and when his friends saw that he was drunk, they arranged for him to rest in master bedroom.
Yi Xi was still looking forward to knowing what happened next, he asked: "Did they make things difficult for you?"
A hint of anger still flashed across Xia Wan's face, "When I brought the pizza in front of them, they said that as long as I drank the cup of wine in their hands, they would sign the bill. At that time, I was very poor, so I had no choice but to agree to drink the cup of wine, and they also signed the bill."
"Is there a problem with that gla.s.s of wine?" Yi Xi couldn't help but to tense up.
"Yes, that gla.s.s of wine was drugged. The moment I walked out, I was stopped by them and asked to play with them. I had a premonition that I had drunk something and started running. At that time, I would go up the stairs as soon as I saw a road and feel dizzy. Then, I would " Xia Wan raised her head, looking at the man opposite her with a bit of embarra.s.sment, "I ran into the room that you were resting in, and locked the door."
A smile flashed past Yi Xi's eyes, "At that time, I probably didn't know that someone had entered!"
"My head is dizzy and my body is very hot. I didn't turn on the light, but I know there is a bed. I want to lie down and rest, then " Xia Wan continued, her beautiful face blus.h.i.+ng red, "We'll... Together. "
Seeing her cute expression, Yi Xi reached out his slender hand, grabbed hold of the hand she placed on the table and guaranteed, "Xia Wan, I will take responsibility of you."
Xia Wan raised her eyes and looked at him. At this moment, when she heard this sentence, she felt a sense of relief from the nightmare six years ago.
However, she still smiled and tousled her long hair, "Speaking of which, it seems like I'm the one in charge!"
In order to ease the atmosphere, Xia Wan had even covered her mouth and chuckled softly, as if sleeping with him had become her achievement.
Yi Xi could not help but let out a pfft sound, and then laughed while looking at her: "Alright, then I'll make you take responsibility."
This time, Xia Wan's smile became somewhat awkward, she bit her lips and said, "How do you want me to take responsibility?!"
Yi Xi's deep blue eyes seemed dark and deep in the dim light. "I want you."
This sentence was better than any other word to express his thoughts.
Xia Wan was so embarra.s.sed that she held her hand and covered her face. She was cute like a child.
It was also because she had drank half a gla.s.s of red wine that she felt a little drunk.
"Will your parents accept me?" Xia Wan raised her head, she was worried about this matter.
Yi Xi smiled as he looked at her, "Don't worry, I don't even know how long my parents have been pus.h.i.+ng for this marriage, they can't wait to get a daughter-in-law. If I send two more grandchildren, I don't know how happy they'll be."
Xia Wan was startled. Looking at Yi Xi's current handsome appearance, she thought to herself, six years ago, how handsome and outstanding must he be when he was young.
Sure enough, she seemed to have earned it!
"Really?" Xia Wan blinked her eyes and asked in shock.
"Really, my mother is a citizen of your country. Furthermore, my parents do not have a good family background. They are very easy-going people."
As Xia Wan looked at Yi Xi, he knew that his parents were definitely a very warm and good person. Otherwise, how could they bring up such a gentle and courteous child?
"Xia Wan, marry me. Let us give our child a complete home." Yi Xi held her hand, suddenly stood up and picked up a rose from the table, then knelt down on one knee and proposed to Xia Wan.
Xia Wan was immediately stupefied. She covered her red lips, completely panicking and at a loss of what to do. No, she was so excited that she didn't know what to do.
Yi Xi thought of something and smiled, "Wait a moment."
Xia Wan saw him get up and enter his bedroom, then enter his cloakroom once more. Xia Wan took a deep breath, his face was already hot enough to boil an egg, and his heart was still a bit panicked.
At this moment, she saw that there was something hiding behind Yi Xi, thus, he once again knelt down on one knee, and held her hand solemnly. He raised his head slightly, and with a deep gaze that was filled with deep emotions and sincerity, he said, "Xia Wan, marry me."
At this moment, he took out his other hand. A diamond ring proposing marriage appeared on his hand. The diamond ring quietly placed in the velvet box flickered with a rainbow color under the light. It was very beautiful, and also very expensive.
Xia Wan was truly fl.u.s.tered. Looking at Yi Xi, she could not think of a way to reject him. No, it was because she could not bear to reject him.
Of course, the look in this man's eyes didn't allow her to reject him! Because it was too deep and enchanting, just like the sea, she was deeply immersed within it, unable to extricate herself from it.
Her eyes became hot as tears began to roll down her cheeks. As she slowly extended her hand to cover her red lips, she nodded.
Yi Xi's eyes shone with joy, he suddenly kissed his devoutly, and landed on her beautiful hand. As Xia Wan's mind was working, he took off the diamond ring and placed it on the ring finger of her left hand.
