Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

The next day,

Yu Ru woke up in Yun Jixing's bed.

She sat up slowly, looked around, and saw the clothes she had worn yesterday, placed on the chair next to her, each piece neatly folded.

After looking for a while, she withdrew her gaze and looked at her body again. Her body was wrapped in the same blanket as yesterday. There was no change. The only change was that the lipstick on her lips was completely removed.

In front of the bed stood a curved screen with a fairy mountain pavilion that was out of tune with the modern decoration. Yu Ru put on her clothes and went behind the screen to check. It turned out that the person behind the screen was Yun Jixing, who had made a bed on the floor and was sleeping on it.

Yu Ru squatted down, moved down, and sat down next to him very quietly to observe him carefully. He slept very quietly, and only very light breathing could be heard. He was breathing evenly and was still sleeping soundly. There were two dark circles under his eyes, and it seemed that he must have tossed and turned last night.

She couldn't help but stretch out a hand towards him, to gently stroke his head and ears, and to touch his fingers slightly exposed outside the quilt. His fingertips were warm, but the floor was probably not warm.

Yu Ru tucked the quilt in for Yun Jixing, stood up, then walked to the bed, picked up the quilt and covered him with it.

After doing this, she tiptoed out of the room.

Yun Jixing felt uncomfortable after seeing the scars on Yu Ru's body last night. His complicated thoughts forced him to stay awake until five o'clock the next morning. He fell asleep at around half past five.

But even if he went to bed so late, he couldn't rest well today. He had some work to do at three o'clock in the afternoon and had to prepare in advance.

It was eleven o'clock in the morning when he suddenly woke up from his sleep.

"Aru!"

He sat up and looked at the extra quilt on himself. He remembered that he had covered Yu Ru with this quilt. Thinking that Yu Ru might have left, he quickly lifted the quilt and went around to the bed to check. Sure enough, the person was gone. The remaining thin quilt was neatly spread on the bed, and there was no sign that anyone had slept there.

He hurriedly picked up his coat and put it on while walking out.

"Aru."

He walked around the house, looking around, looking for Yu Ru and calling her.

Yu Ru did not leave. She went back to her own home, washed up and came back. She was now cooking in the kitchen. When cooking in someone else's home, she was not so particular. She did not set up a camera, nor did she wear the same protective equipment as the medical staff. She just wore an apron.

Yun Jixing successfully found her, and when he saw her busy in the kitchen, he could not believe his eyes.

"Aru..."

Yu Ru turned around.

Seeing that it was him coming, she took a look and then looked away, cutting vegetables at a much slower pace.

"Aru."

Yun Jixing called her again, then walked forward and gently hugged her from behind. He didn't stick to her, but just put his hand on her coat. As soon as he put his hand on her, he felt that this was not good, so he let go of her hand and stepped back half a step to stand still.

"Aru, it's great that you didn't leave, it's great... You were tired from crying yesterday, so don't cook. I'll do it and you can rest."

Yu Ru stopped what she was doing and tilted her head slightly to look at him.

Yunjixing also looked at her.

Yu Ru lowered her eyes, shook her head, and turned back to continue cutting vegetables.

Seeing this, Yun Jixing walked up to her and leaned close to her, "Aru, I have to discuss something with the supplier this afternoon. I will come back at six o'clock. At nine o'clock in the evening, I will propose to you, okay? I have been thinking about this for a long time. Let's get married. No matter how many scars you have, I don't mind. There will always be a way to remove them. Let's find a way to remove them together, okay?"

Yu Ru did not respond. She just cut the vegetables quietly and slowly. After a long time, she nodded.

Nine p.m,

Yun Jixing chatted with Yu Ru on the phone on time.

Yunjixing: Ah Ru, can I come pick you up? I have arranged the proposal location at home.

Yu Ru: I’ll go there by myself.

Yunjixing: Okay.

After finishing the conversation with Yu Ru, Yun Jixing took a deep breath. He looked around and confirmed that there were no major problems with his arrangements, then walked to the door to greet Yu Ru.

After a while, the doorbell rang and he opened the door immediately without thinking.

At the door, Yu Ru stood there, dressed up beautifully. She wore a red round-neck, double-breasted, narrow-sleeved long gown, a silver-gilt double-phoenix enamel necklace, a pair of gold bracelets inlaid with gemstones and pearls, and a jade pendant on each ear. The Hanfu was a restored style, imitating the style of the Empress Dowager Cisheng in the Ming Dynasty, and the clothes of the woman standing in the center of the scroll of the ancient monks, Taoists, and Confucianists, three generations of donors, scholars, farmers, merchants, and workers. It was beautiful and noble, and you would never get tired of admiring it.

She combed her hair into a bun, decorated it with a pearl bun, put on the hairpin he had given her, and pinned a few crabapple flowers of different sizes. As for her makeup, she did not restore the ancient style, as she was not very good at makeup, so she only put on some lipstick.

Even so, she was as bright as the clouds and as beautiful as jade. When Yun Jixing saw her new look, he felt like a fairy from an ancient painting had walked out, and he was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses.

"Aru, you are so beautiful..."

Yu Ruwei lowered her head. After hearing what he said, she slowly raised her head, glanced at him, then slowly lowered her head, turned her eyes to the side and nodded, "You are also very beautiful."

Yun Jixing also dressed up very well tonight. He didn't wear Hanfu, but a suit and leather shoes. This was the best-looking outfit he had thought of so far, but when he saw Yu Ru's look, he regretted it. He should have worn Hanfu as well, so that they would look better together.

He sent several dresses to Yu Ru in advance, thinking that she would pick one to wear, but unexpectedly she didn't.

He should have thought that Yu Ru was a sentimental person, so she would definitely attach great importance to the hairpin he had given her before. In order to match the hairpin, she would definitely wear traditional Chinese clothing.

He was a little annoyed, but it was too late. He didn't want to wait too long, nor did he want Yu Ru to wait too long.

"Aru, follow me."

Yun Jixing took a corner of Yu Ru's sleeve and walked slowly with her forward, stopping only when they reached the restaurant.

He did his best to decorate the restaurant. The theme was Yu Ru's favorite, nature and flowers. Even the dining table and chairs were covered with flowers. On the table was a Chinese candlelight dinner he had prepared, with three dishes, one soup, two desserts and one cake.

He turned off a few of the lights here, but the light was still bright because he used several lights to project a full moon as tall as a person on the wall. This moon was bright enough to support the entire room.

The moon was surrounded by flowers, and the floor was also covered with flowers. In a corner outside the flowers, there was a pile of neatly arranged exquisite boxes. These were not decorations, but his proposal gifts to Yu Ru.

He used hundreds of electronic candles to make a circle inside the flowers, which would be the center of the proposal.
