Chapter 391: Chapter 142: The Green Tea Female Supporting Character in a Period Novel (29)

He lowered his head, using his height to his advantage as he turned to the side and quickly stuffed something into Chi Yun’er’s hand. "Look at it when you get home," he whispered.

"Comrade Chi Yun’er, what is your answer?" He stepped back, his gaze fixed intently on her. "I’ve never planned on spending my life with any woman. My unique physical condition is part of the reason, but the other part is that I had never met the one I was destined for."

"I don’t want to make a bunch of empty promises, but it absolutely has to be you!"

Some people are just that magical. Before she entered your world, everyone else was just a passerby, coming and going. But when she arrived, the world instantly transformed from a silvery winter-scape to the warmth of a blooming spring.

If this maiden of spring were to leave, his world would simply return to the way it was before.

’But after seeing such a brilliant world, could he ever return to his old, dull life?’

Chi Yun’er pursed her lips, a soft smile playing on them. "Are you sure? Once we’re engaged, we’ll be together for a lifetime. You’ll have to accept all my good points and my bad. No complaints and no lies!"

Jiang Yihua smiled and nodded. "The same goes for me. People think I’m capable of anything, but I’m only human. I wonder, will Comrade Chi Yun’er feel let down later and come to regret her decision?"

At this, they both couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Chi Yun’er stood ramrod straight and held out her hand. "Comrade Jiang Yihua, the future is long and full of uncertainties. I don’t think we need to waste our time testing each other."

Jiang Yihua reached out, his fingers brushing against hers before he restrained himself from taking her hand. He quickly pulled back, stuffing his hand into his pocket.

It was as if a kitten were playfully scratching inside his heart.

’He desperately missed their days on the farm, when everyone else was at work and he could enjoy his girlfriend playfully throwing herself into his arms...’

"I will give it my all," he said solemnly.

The Jiang Family, terrified their new daughter-in-law might get away and knowing their son was short on time, discussed the engagement with the Chi Family that very evening. They decided to hold it the next day, which would still leave the young couple one day to go out and have fun together.

While the adults were engrossed in a heated discussion downstairs, Chi Yun’er was upstairs, book in hand, trying her best to eavesdrop. She was incredibly busy, one moment pressing her ear to the door, the next lying on the floor, and then trying to use a cup as a listening device.

Aside from the two ladies cackling like ducks, she couldn’t hear a thing.

Chi Yun’er wanted to use "getting a glass of water" as an excuse to sneak downstairs and check on the situation, but her cheeks were burning hot. She was tiptoeing around, terrified of making a sound and alerting the people below.

The shadowy figure outside had been watching her for who knows how long. ’My little wife is certainly lively,’ he thought with a private smile. When he saw her turn toward the bed, he quickly ducked out of sight. A moment later, he reached out and knocked gently on the window twice.

Chi Yun’er froze for a second, then a smile touched her lips. She knelt on the bed and looked toward the window, where she indeed saw a man clinging to the drainpipe outside like a monkey.

She hurried to open the window and beckoned him inside in a hushed voice.

The man remained in the shadows, sighing softly. "Turn off the light first," he said. "Otherwise, I’m afraid there will be nasty rumors about you flying around by tomorrow."

Chi Yun’er nodded again and again, rushing over to switch off the light.

The room was instantly plunged into darkness. She blinked, trying to let her eyes adjust before searching for him.

Just then, she heard the bed creak softly. He must have jumped inside. He then reached back to close the window, keeping the mosquitos out.

Then, he swept her into a passionate, tight embrace, pinning her against the door...

The ache of longing in their hearts finally seemed to ease. It was a long while before they reluctantly pulled apart, their breaths mingling in the bright moonlight that streamed through the window.

"Yun’er," he murmured, kissing her forehead tenderly. "I almost regret letting you come back." The thought that they would be separated again in two days made him pull her close and start teasingly kissing her once more.

Chi Yun’er could barely breathe. She clutched his shirt, unwilling to push him away. "Brother Hua, did your trip to Mongolia go smoothly?"

Jiang Yihua suddenly went rigid. A cold sweat broke out on his back, a mixture of relief and lingering fear.
