316: Su Qingge's proposal: "Lin Xuan, will you marry me?"

“Xiao Xuan, we’re taking Xiao Ling home now.”

“If you’re free right now, why don’t you come to our place for a visit?”

“You… you haven’t been to your uncle’s house in a long time, have you! That kid Tang Chuan misses you a lot too! You two cousins can catch up!”

“…”

In the hospital room.

After a while of pleasantries, Tang Guoan got up to leave, inviting Lin Xuan before he left.

Beside him, Xu Shuyun also chimed in repeatedly, her face full of anticipation.

To eavesdrop on his thoughts, the couple went to great lengths, wanting to keep their Nephew by their side.

o(￣ヘ￣o＃) Unfortunately, Lin Xuan waved his hand in refusal.

“Tomorrow! Uncle, I have something to take care of this afternoon.”

…【(ˉ▽￣～) Cut~~~ My Great Uncle is really talking nonsense with his eyes open!】

【Who doesn't know how much my foolish Oudoudou~~~ despises me because of that Fake Heiress?! He'd rather I disappear, so how could he miss me?】

【Speaking of which, that kid once broke my nose bridge! (≖‿≖) I’ll get him back for that sooner or later…】

【But my foolish Oudoudou’s chrysanthemum is almost in danger! Tsk tsk tsk, it’s quite pitiful when you think about it…】

…(꒪ꇴ꒪(꒪ꇴ꒪ ;) What???

What is Oudoudou (⊙_⊙)???

Does it refer to Tang Chuan?!

It seems I’ll have to warn and lecture my son a few more times after we get home, telling him to show less hostility towards Lin Xuan, and even to stay as far away as possible from his dangerous cousin… Because this Nephew is toxic, and he holds grudges especially well. →_→

But what’s with the ‘chrysanthemum in danger’?!

Could it be that Tang Chuan doesn’t like women? That his sexual orientation is a bit abnormal???

Recalling how every time they mentioned setting him up on a blind date, or introducing him to someone… Tang Chuan would show extreme resistance, a violent reaction of absolute refusal.

Tang Guoan and his wife’s hearts simultaneously sank, and they had a bad premonition.

(ÒωÓױ)！No way, no way!!!

Their son couldn’t really be gay, could he?!!!

…【Strange! Didn’t they say they were taking Chu Ling away? What are these two standing around for, dazed?】

【Hurry up and leave! Don’t they know I have good news at home?!】

【Qingge and I are going to get our marriage certificate this afternoon. Who has time to waste here with you two old farts?】

【Ah, it’s really making me anxious! Question: “How do you subtly get rid of a clingy relative?”】

【ε＝ε＝ε＝(＃＞д＜)ﾉ Waiting online, urgent!!!!】

…Lin Xuan appeared calm on the surface, but in his heart, he kept chanting expulsion spells:

“Hurry up and scram”, “Hurry up and scram”, “Hurry up and scram”, “Hurry up and scram!”… At this moment, Lin Xuan’s heart was joyful, with a sense of accomplishment and surprise.

He hadn't expected that not long ago… Su Qingge would suddenly suggest getting their marriage certificate with him.

Of course, Lin Xuan’s mouth curved into a slight smile, and he readily agreed.

On the other side.

Hearing his thoughts, Tang Guoan and his wife realized they were so disliked, which made them feel awkward.

At the same time, they glanced at the girl in the wheelchair, a hint of surprise flashing in their pupils.

It had to be said… their Nephew certainly had good fortune with women!

But such a cold, stunning beauty didn't look like someone their ordinary Nephew could handle… Recalling some rumors he had heard… Tang Guoan’s lips involuntarily curved into a schadenfreude-filled smile.

In his imagination, with such a strong woman and weak man dynamic, Lin Xuan must be living a very suffocating life daily.

After all, as a ‘lucky’ son-in-law, his status in the woman’s family was usually very low.

Lin Xuan might not even dare to breathe loudly at home, and would have to be responsible for daily chores like unclogging toilets, bringing foot-washing water, laundry, cooking, and so on… Hmph hmph! ╭(╯^╰)╮

This brat, still trying to trick me into getting cauliflower ears?!

(*^▽^*) Now he’s getting his just deserts, isn’t he!!!

Just imagining his Nephew squatting miserably by the toilet, diligently scrubbing it… the mental victory made Tang Guoan's lips curl, and a brilliant smile, comparable to a blooming chrysanthemum, blossomed on his face, instantly making him feel much better.

“Alright then! Xiao Xuan, you go ahead and be busy! We’re taking Xiao Ling home now, and Great Uncle will wait for you there tomorrow!”

Immediately, the couple led the somewhat anxious Chu Ling out of the hospital room and hurried home… When the annoying Great Uncle and his family finally disappeared from his sight, only Su Qingge and he remained in the hospital room, which became incredibly quiet.

“Qingge, what you said this morning… were you serious?”

Lin Xuan rubbed his hands, squatting beside the wheelchair, looking a little nervous.

Upon hearing this.

The girl turned her head, silently gazing at the man’s well-defined face.

To Lin Xuan’s surprise, she suddenly reached out and gently stroked his features, not answering directly but asking instead:

“Then are you willing? Are you willing to accept my proposal and marry me?”

Uh (⊙o⊙)… Although he always said he was the ‘lucky’ son-in-law who married into the Su Family.

But when a woman actually said to his face that he should marry her, Lin Xuan always felt a strange… sense of humor?!

Pfft——

In this atmosphere of a “proposal” that should have been sacred and serious, Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh.

Then he reached out and pinched the girl’s smooth, pretty face, nodding and smiling:

“Marry, why not marry?! My stomach has always been a bit sensitive, and I’ve long wanted to live off your generosity, Qingge.”

“Qingge… Oh, no! Wife, from now on, I’m your little man.”

“ヽ(￣ω￣(￣ω￣〃)ゝ We’ll divide the work; you’re responsible for making money and supporting the family, and I’m responsible for being handsome and dashing, and together we’ll create our perfect little home.”

“؏ ؏ ♦ ᖗ Buddha ◡ Buddha ᖘ ♦ ؏ ؏. Wife, my happiness for the rest of my life is in your hands. You must protect this fragile man well~ ~ ~”

“And I will fulfill my duty as a husband, doing my best to carry on the family line for your Su Family, and to have children for you, Qingge. I’ve already planned the 12 Chinese zodiac animal project, and it can be implemented at any time. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧”

“…”

Looking at Lin Xuan’s smug, punchable expression, Su Qingge raised an eyebrow, her hand twitched, and she almost couldn't resist giving him a big slap.

(〃＞ dish＜) This guy, he’s as shameless as ever!!!

But considering that this little man would soon be hers… Su Qingge ultimately suppressed the urge for “domestic violence,” giving Lin Xuan an exasperated glare, signaling him to quickly push her away… “Let’s go! While there’s still time, let’s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get it done now.”

“Ah? Is that all? I thought in movies, after a successful proposal, ლ(°◕‵ƹ′◕ლ) the male and female leads always kiss? I don’t think this step should be skipped!”

“→_→ What? Getting greedy, are we? Say that again, let me hear it…”

“Ouch, ouch, ouch! Wife, you’re murdering your husband! Never mind, hitting is affection, scolding is love! Ծ‸Ծ Go ahead and hit me! Anyway, it hurts me, but it pains your heart!”

“…”

Lin Xuan spread his arms, striking a tragic pose of being at her mercy, which made Su Qingge chuckle.

Glancing at the closed hospital room door, the girl pointed to her cherry lips, a blush unconsciously creeping onto her pretty face.

She urged:

“Then hurry up! Kiss me and let’s go, I don’t want to be watched live.”

“Um… Qingge, you… you’re serious? I was just joking, I thought you wouldn’t agree…”

“You are my husband, I’m just… just doing what a wife should do…”

“Wife…”

Golden sunlight streamed through the window, scattering into the pristine hospital room, draping the couple, who were gazing deeply at each other, in a golden veil.

Lin Xuan squatted before the wheelchair, his gaze gentle.

He looked at the girl’s blushing cheeks, her face filled with anticipation and happiness, and for a moment, he was speechless.

Qingge called herself my wife… She personally admitted that I am her husband… Lin Xuan knew very well how proud the girl in front of him was, and how difficult it was for her to voluntarily say such “mushy” words… Once spoken, it meant she truly… truly accepted him from the bottom of her heart… At this moment, Lin Xuan completely ignored the constant car horns outside the window and the laughter of the medical staff outside the door… His world, as if in this instant, completely stilled!!!

In his mind, like a revolving lantern, flashed the entire process of them… meeting in that small room, to now, about to receive their marriage certificate… From initial strangers to later getting to know each other, and now to being in love, the two had spent countless unforgettable and happy moments together.

Marriage was simply a natural outcome, a matter of course… Recalling all the little moments of the past, Lin Xuan’s lips gradually curved upwards, revealing a warm smile.

He took Su Qingge’s small hand, feeling the warmth from the girl’s palm.

Then he slowly stood up, pulling Su Qingge into a tight embrace, feeling the girl’s rapid heartbeat and body temperature.

Lin Xuan whispered in her ear, his voice filled with determination and tenderness.

“Qingge, I love you.”

This short sentence made Su Qingge feel as if she had been struck by Cupid’s arrow, her whole body going soft, feeling tingly and numb, instantly losing all ability to resist.

At this moment, all her surprise and shyness vanished, replaced only by overwhelming joy and anticipation for the future… “Mm, I… I too…”

Hearing Su Qingge’s faint, mosquito-like response, the tenderness in Lin Xuan’s eyes deepened.

They embraced for an unknown duration, then slowly parted, smiling at each other, their eyes sparkling with happiness, letting the sunlight from outside stream over them, bathing the young couple in a golden glow.

“Wife, you are truly beautiful.”

Lin Xuan’s large hand gently caressed the girl’s exquisitely beautiful half-face, praising her from the bottom of his heart.

In his eyes, Su Qingge at this moment was breathtakingly beautiful.

Her two bright, large eyes, like the brightest stars in the night sky, sparkled with shy yet happy light… “…”

Su Qingge remained silent, or rather… she was already too shy to know how to respond, her face so red it looked like it could drip blood, she could only slightly tilt her head up, gazing at the handsome man in front of her, her eyes filled with trust and love….
