Perhaps because of her uncertain mentality, Ye Lingyue also "worked" in the coffee shop as if nothing had happened today, watching the group of high-end people in suits coming and going, doing her best to play the role of a small waiter .

After a busy day, it will soon be afternoon.

Lu Yuqian thoughtfully sent someone to pick her up. At her request, he went back to Lu's house to change clothes before setting off for the western restaurant.

According to what Lu Yuqian said, she deliberately chose clothes that looked more formal. After all, she had been in this class for a long time, and she gradually knew that sometimes, what clothes needed to be matched with any occasion.

After all, it is against the rules to enter a western restaurant in casual attire without being greeted in advance.

Although she knew that Lu Yuqian would definitely let her in, Ye Lingyue consciously chose a nice little dress because of the so-called "do as the Romans do in the country".

The water pink dress looks very elegant, and the whole person looks smart and cute. When people put their eyes on it, it is difficult to move away.

The car drove to the agreed western restaurant, but unexpectedly no one found her, only the two waiters at the door were waiting to receive her.

Considerately took her to the middle seat and sat down, looking at the candles on the table that had burned to one third and the surrounding warm-colored lights, Ye Lingyue realized that Lu Yuqian probably booked the place, otherwise, how could it be possible? so quiet.

The worldview of the rich is beyond her comprehension.

Ye Lingyue shook her head and felt that it was a waste, while secretly sighing in her heart.

After a while, the uniformed waiter came and bowed.

"what happened?"

Seeing his formal appearance, Ye Lingyue thought that Lu Yuqian was suddenly unable to come due to something else, otherwise why would she have been waiting for so long?

"Mr. Lu said that the meeting is over now, and he is on his way here. May I ask if you are serving red wine now?"

This is the usual way of handling western restaurants, and Ye Lingyue has seen it before.

It is said that red wine should be fully awakened before it tastes good, and it should be in proper contact with the air, so before opening the bottle, it is completely sealed, and after opening, there is a special container to load it and let it react .

Ye Lingyue nodded lightly, as time passed by, she couldn't help but start to look down at her phone, feeling more and more strange, why did Lu Yuqian let herself come first since she knew she was going to be late?

——Da da da da!
There was the sound of brisk footsteps behind her, and Ye Lingyue subconsciously turned her head to follow the sound, and saw a cute little girl with blond hair and blue eyes stumbling towards her, holding a balloon in her hand.

"Are you a little fairy?"

The little girl's childish voice was very pleasant, and she asked her with a childish voice.

"I'm not, you are the little fairy."

A smile unconsciously appeared on Ye Lingyue's face, she stretched out her hand to shave her cheeks, and chatted with her gently.

Broken Chinese, with a soft and pleasant voice, kept entangled in the same problem, and after forcing Ye Lingyue to admit that she was a "little fairy", she ignored the greeting, put the balloon in her hand, turned around and ran away.

On the way to run, she almost fell down, and Ye Lingyue almost ran over to help her.

As soon as he received the balloon, Lu Yuqian came. He was wearing a handsome black retro suit. Today he looked extraordinarily formal. The hair on his forehead was styled, looking very handsome.

"sorry I'm late."

Lu Yu smiled very nicely, put his hands on his stomach, nodded to her gentlemanly, and then sat down.

--Da da da!

Footsteps sounded again, Ye Lingyue thought that the little girl had come back again, but when she turned her head, she found that it was a little boy miraculously, holding a delicate envelope in his hand, obviously there were also delicate things inside.

Standing still in front of Lu Yuqian, while asking questions, he also looked towards Ye Lingyue, as if to confirm whether she was listening carefully.

"Are you the little prince?"

"I am a prince, but not small, give it to me."

Lu Yuqian was just as gentle. After speaking to the little boy, he snatched the envelope from his hand. The little boy was taken aback, looked left and right, and ran back pouted.

"What the hell are you doing?"

No matter how stupid Ye Lingyue was, she guessed that there was something tricky about it now, and moved closer to Lu Yuqian, asking in a low voice, not forgetting to look left and right, with embarrassment and shyness on her face.

"This is an invitation, open it and have a look."

Before getting any answer, Ye Lingyue was handed the contents of the envelope he just took in front of Ye Lingyue, a dark blue card with lace trims of the same color as embellishments, and a lavender plant inserted in the middle , looks very delicate.

Ye Lingyue, who was full of doubts, opened the invitation blankly, opened it, and then suddenly realized what happened today.

On the dark blue paper, with a silver paint pen, there was a passage written clearly. It was written by him at first glance. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, yet beautiful. It was domineering but restrained at the same time.

—Will you marry me?

Ye Lingyue stared at the paper in her hand, her nose soured, she almost burst into tears, it was as if every frame of the past flashed before her eyes miraculously, it was not particularly exciting, but it seemed very moving.

He raised his head and looked at the man in front of him. He had a handsome face, which was a bit more noble than the prince in the TV series. The rare corners of his mouth were curled up, revealing dimples. The contrast was a bit cute.

Her heart was beating like it was about to explode, and she bit her lips tightly, not knowing what to say.

I thought that the scenes I saw in movies, TV shows, and novels were just fictional plots written by the writer for the atmosphere, but when I was really in this environment, I really had the uncontrollable urge to cry.

At this second, Ye Lingyue understood what the so-called warmth surrounded by happiness in the novel feels like, as if the air is full of sugar, sweet and suffocating.

"I know it might be hasty, but... I hope you can accept it. I won't force you to do anything, but this way, your wish can be fulfilled."

Although Lu Yuqian had a smile on his face, the words he said were extraordinarily sincere, and at the same time, he would believe them unconsciously. Even if he was not sure what he said and the exact meaning, he would still think to trust.

"my wish?"

Ye Lingyue took the tissue from him, pressed the corners of her eyes twice to wipe away her tears, and then asked in a trembling voice.

"Study in graduate school."

When he said this, Lu Yugan felt inexplicably guilty on his face.

I still feel a little uncomfortable about the fact that I can't fully make up my mind and can't directly satisfy her wishes.

But it was the best compromise he could think of.

She stayed at home in the morning and did not leave, just to talk to Yu Jieyun after she left. Anyway, what mother wants is the name for starting a family and starting a business. As long as she is married, the rest will not be too forceful.

After promising to have a child as soon as possible, Yu Jieyun finally reluctantly agreed to Ye Lingyue's request to go to graduate school.

In fact, it was useless to strongly oppose it, but Lu Yuqian was used to listening to his mother's arrangements, and it was already a great improvement to be able to resist to this extent.

"Sorry…"

Ye Lingyue knew very well what was in his eyes. After hearing the conversation in the morning, she had been thinking about it all day today, or if she told Lu Yuqian directly, it was just a casual statement, so don't pay too much attention to it.

Although she had selfish intentions to stay by Lu Yuqian's side at that moment, when she really woke up, she actually had many other thoughts.

The world views of the two are so different, and she is carrying such a big secret. To be honest, if it weren't for Lu Yuchang's existence, she might have left the Lu family by now.

After all, college completion certificates just take time to earn.

Her purpose is only here.

But what he never thought was that what he said casually was just a small extravagant wish, and Lu Yuqian actually regarded it as a big deal the next day, went to Yu Jieyun to talk about it, and was dismissed sharply.

"No need to be sorry, what I need is that you come to me first no matter what you have."

Lu Yuqian didn't feel troublesome or anything, on the contrary, he was very happy that Ye Lingyue came to talk to him about it.

He knew very well in his heart that in fact, it was very difficult for Ye Lingyue to accept a sudden man as her husband.

So I don't expect to be completely liked by her while I like her, even if I just rely on her, there will always be feelings slowly.

When I first came into contact with Ye Lingyue, I didn't really have so many thoughts in my heart. I just thought of it as a tool for getting married and having children, a prop arranged by my mother.

As long as the mother's expectations can be fulfilled, everything doesn't matter.

Since when did it change?
When she chatted with herself on the rooftop for the first time?

Or when she was reprimanded helplessly by Yu Jieyun, but didn't say a word?
Or... earlier than these remembered things?

Maybe, as early as the moment we met, all thoughts have changed.

He was willing to let go of his heart and like a woman, which was something that he couldn't even imagine back then.

Not to mention other.

Ye Lingyue is as clean as a piece of white paper. In her eyes, he can't see any desire, so she feels very comfortable.

Perhaps it was because of those eyes that were as clean as water, but also had thoughts that even many mature people didn't have, that made him fall into it unknowingly.

"I didn't think too much about the coffee shop. Now that I know it, you should take it back."

Ye Lingyue pursed her lips and lowered her head, feeling as uncomfortable as a knife.

She understood that what she said next might really make the whole situation irreversible.

She didn't dare to raise her head, didn't dare to look at Lu Yuqian more, because she knew that she would be shaken again, but the matter had already developed to this point and could not be undone.

Even living in the Lu family, spending time with Lu Yuqian every day, pretending to be in love with outsiders, acting as a couple in front of the media, everything is fine, but getting married...

It represented too many things, even if she wanted to stay with him again, Ye Lingyue asked herself, she would only get deeper and deeper, and she couldn't let it go.

Otherwise, everything would really turn into what she was afraid of.

"What is given to you is yours, and no one in the store will harass you."

Lu Yuqian gradually sensed something was wrong, his eyes were a little darker, and when he looked at her, he felt vaguely uneasy.

Why, there is a feeling that although she is sitting next to him, it seems like the end of the world?

"It's not a matter of harassment or not, Lu Yuqian, I have my own life, you know? No matter what we pretend, I will always have my own life."

Ye Lingyue clenched her fingers into fists, resisting the pain in her heart, and said to him.

"What do you mean?"

Lu Yuqian finally turned cold. He probably guessed in his heart what he would hear later, but he still wanted to be lucky, at least not to say it out of her mouth.

"I cannot accept your marriage proposal."
