I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

I...I called your name!

Before he could finish speaking, Lana, tears streaming down her face, grabbed her clothes and ran out.

Seeing this, he quickly got out of bed to chase after her, but when he reached the living room, Lana had already locked herself in the bathroom and refused to open the door no matter what he did.

Clark stood in the doorway, apologizing profusely and trying to explain that he had simply forgotten to take his medication and was still half asleep.

He had no idea who this woman named Louise was.

Everything he said was true.

Lana inside remained silent, and Clark could only stand there blankly at the door, not daring to knock loudly...

Because he was afraid of scaring Lana.

After an unknown amount of time, until Clark's legs began to ache unbearably from standing, the bathroom door was finally opened.

Before Clark could react, a fragrant breeze caressed his face, and a soft, warm body appeared in his arms.

Lana hugged his neck tightly, pressed her face against his not-so-broad chest, and said in a tearful voice:

"I...I'm just scared,"

I'm afraid that one day you'll suddenly leave me.

Clark's heart clenched as he felt the warm, moist touch on his chest.

He then hugged Lana tightly, wishing he could meld her whole being into his heart, and gently stroked her smooth back with his hands.

"I won't, I won't leave you."

forever…

Never.

His tone was extremely gentle.

Yet they were incredibly determined.

Seemingly sensing the deep affection in Clark's words, Lana raised her head, her deep gaze meeting his.

The two then embraced and kissed.

After a long, long time,

Near the end, Clark quietly slipped a hand into his pajama pocket.

He took out the ring he had carried with him for years.

Then, amidst Lana's complex expression of both surprise and delight...

Get down on one knee.

He looked into Lana's eyes with the most sincere gaze of his life, and spoke to her in the gentlest tone in the world:

Lana... I love you.

If you wish,

Will you marry me?

At this moment, Lana was already in tears, her hands tightly covering her face...

Clark knelt before him, his gaze sincere and expectant.

She suddenly turned around.

Just as Clark couldn't see her expression,

A deep sense of guilt welled up in Lana's eyes.

But in the end,

She turned back with a smile, tears of joy streaming down her face, and said the words Clark most wanted to hear at that moment:

"I am willing!"

In an instant, Clark's eyes also welled up with tears. Suppressing his excitement, he used trembling hands to precisely and quickly slip the ring onto Lana's ring finger.

I was afraid she might change her mind at any moment.

He then quickly stood up, hugged Lana in his arms, and excitedly spun her around...

He now feels like the happiest man in the world!

After a while, Lana patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to stop.

"what happened?"

Clark, still excited, laughed and said, seemingly not having had enough of turning around.

"I also have a surprise for you!"

Lana said mysteriously, then turned and ran into the room.

With a puzzled look on Clark's face, she took something out of the drawer, then quickly ran back and presented it to Clark.

That was a pregnancy test.

The two red bars above are particularly eye-catching.

You're going to be a dad!

Lana smiled and said those words to Clark's almost stunned gaze.

Next second

His expression visibly changed from blank to joy.

Joy turned into ecstasy.

"Am I going to be a dad?"

I'm going to be a dad!?

I'm going to be a dad!!!

"Oh!!!"

Clark could no longer contain his excitement and let out three shouts followed by a loud cheer!

He suddenly opened his arms, wanting to give Lana a big hug.

But the next second he quickly stopped and gave her a gentle hug instead.

Then, like a mental patient having an episode, he kept running around the room, sometimes grabbing his hair and muttering to himself, sometimes clutching his chest and taking deep breaths...

Finally, he even ran barefoot into the street in his pajamas, running around like a madman among the neighbors, spreading the news.

"Hey! Hey! Mr. White! Did you know? I'm going to be a dad!"

"Kant! Kant! I have great news for you!"

I'm going to be a dad! Hahaha!

"Mrs. Lawson! I'm going to be a father!"

You absolutely must come to my wedding!

"..."

Lana slowly walked to the door, watching Clark running and leaping joyfully through the street like a child, unable to contain his excitement.

Instead of stopping her, she felt a surge of impulse within herself…

I want to go 'crazy' with him.

But then, as if she had thought of something, the corners of her mouth gradually disappeared...

His gaze dimmed as well.

Clark, oblivious to her unusual behavior, continued excitedly handing out wedding favors everywhere.

One happy event after another came, as if he had been overwhelmed!

He wants to take back what he just said…

Because he felt that he was the happiest man in the world right now.

After running around for quite a while, he finally headed towards his home…

He ran back towards Lana.

And judging from his appearance, he was quite tired before he thought of going home.

Lana smiled again and opened her arms to greet him.

But Clark carefully bypassed her, then went straight into the house, picked up the phone, and while dialing a number, explained to Lana:

"I'm going to tell Jonathan and Martha..."

They're going to be grandparents!

As Clark dialed the telephone dial, his face practically radiated joy…

Lana's lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

But as the call was connected, Clark held up one finger to signal Lana to wait a moment.
