Infinite happiness filled Mo Beihan's heart immediately and he was so overwhelmed that he did not know what to say.
This little girl was timid. Although they were reborn and they had already decided to get married in the previous lifetime, he thought that in this second lifetime, she would lead a life of her own and spend it with her family!
Yao Yao from the previous lifetime really worried her family. During that period of time, the entire Gu Family was affected because of her and Yao Yao felt very guilty toward them.
He planned to wait for a year more when she was seventeen before mentioning the engagement. This way, they could get married once she was of age at eighteen!
Anyway, Yao Yao was always at home and always before him. He could wait. As long as Yao Yao was willing to marry him, he would be willing to wait for however more years.
He did not expect Yao Yao to personally tell him to get engaged right now!
A laughter escaped Mo Beihan's mouth instantly; His elation truly could not be contained.
“HAHAHA! You said it. I will go to the Gu family to ask for your hand in marriage right now! Let's get engaged immediately. You can't go back on your word. HAHAHAHA!”
This was an earnest laugh from his chest. Gu Qingyao was in his arms and could clearly feel the vibration of his chest.
Gu Qingyao laughed as well!
That's right. She wants to be his fiancee!
In the previous lifetime, they were already going to be married but were unexpectedly harmed by Bai Youran.
What was there to hesitate now that they were reborn?
Mo Beihan had been accompanying her since the start as he continuously comforted her, doted on her and wanted to marry her. He had always been the one taking the initiative so she might as well take the initiative this time!
She did not want to wait any longer. She wanted to let everyone know that Mo Beihan was hers!
No one shall think of s.n.a.t.c.hing him away!
Mo Beihan was disoriented from the excitement. After staying in the inters.p.a.ce with Gu Qingyao for a while, he immediately led her to buy items for their engagement once they were out of the inters.p.a.ce.
Gu Qingyao laughed as she watched his gleeful expression. “What do you need to prepare for an engagement in this period? Many people don't even have anything when they get married!”
“How can that be?” Mo Beihan disagreed. “That's the case for other people. Engagement is a once-in-lifetime event. I want to buy things for my wife, what about that?”
“Let's go to the department store in the city. We were going to go to the city anyway. Let's go now, shall we?”
They came out specially to get some items seeing that the year was coming to an end. He had given all his items to Chen Jin but he knew that Gu Qingyao still had many items on her hands, including those dumplings and wontons.
Comparing the department store to the black market, they could get even more good stuff from the black market, thus he had originally planned to bring Gu Qingyao to the market.
And all the more they had to go there now!
Mo Beihan excitedly got his bicycle over and had Gu Qingyao wrapped tightly in a big coat. With Gu Qingyao seated on the front, he sped along the roads at top speed. How he wished he could immediately fly to the city to get all the items for the engagement and return to the Gu family to ask for her hand in marriage!
Gu Qingyao was amused by the situation.
The roads were covered in snow which made it difficult to walk. However, Mo Beihan reached the city in just two hours.
Since the new year was about to come, the market was relatively more bustling and there were slightly more people in the departmental store. After parking his bicycle, Mo Beihan dashed into the city with Gu Qingyao in hand.
Resources were scarce in this era and even if people from the upper-cla.s.s got married, there weren't any good items and everything was extremely simple.
Much less a village like theirs.
The four coveted items were the trendiest items for weddings in this era but only big households possessed most of these items and small village households sometimes did not even have an article of new clothes.
Plenty of people borrowed shoes and clothes for their wedding!
