She wanted to marry, and he was anxious
Chapter 2 Proposing a Marriage
Early in the morning, Ji Hanzhou, who had hardly slept the whole night, stood in front of the wardrobe, frowning and in a dilemma. For the first time in his life, Ji Hanzhou disliked the fact that his clothes were few and monotonous.
Ji Hanzhou had walked this road to Lancheng countless times, but this time, he could finally appear in front of her openly. His heartbeat quickened with anticipation.
Lancheng Ye Family
The sun was hanging high in the blue sky, occasionally hiding mischievously in the clouds for a moment. There was no wind, and the leaves were drooping, listless, but in the flower room of the Ye family, the flowers that were carefully nurtured were in full bloom. Hundreds of flowers competed with each other in beauty, and each one was full of vitality and vigor.
On the rattan chair in the flower room, a young girl sat upright. She was just quietly reading a book, and she was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes away. The girl's slightly curly long hair was like layers of waves, hanging softly around her slender waist. Her white fingers turned the pages of the book in her hand from time to time, making a rustling sound.
At this time, Aunt Wu knocked on the door of the greenhouse: "Miss, the master and the mistress want you to meet the guests."
Ye Zhihan did not stop turning the pages of the book, and a gentle and pleasant voice rang out softly: "Who is coming this time? Can Lancheng find someone who can catch my parents' eyes?"
Aunt Wu was very excited: "Today's guests are different. They are from the Ji family in Beijing. The old man and Mr. Ji are here. Mr. Ji is really handsome and a perfect match for Miss!"
The fingers that were turning the pages of the book paused for a moment, and Ye Zhihan said coquettishly, "Auntie Wu, if you tease me like this again, I won't go."
"Okay, okay, it's all Auntie Wu's fault. Now go change your clothes with Auntie Wu."
After changing her clothes, Ye Zhihan listened to the conversation coming from the living room not far away. The voices became clearer and clearer as they got closer. The man's voice was deep, rich, and full of magnetism, as if it carried an invisible magic.
He wore a well-cut black suit that perfectly outlined his straight and slender figure. The exquisite tie and cufflinks just added a touch of bright color to the black suit, highlighting his elegant quality.
Ye's mother Su Jinhe called out gently, "Hanhan, come here quickly."
Hearing his mother's call, Ye Zhihan walked slowly and calmly under the gaze of everyone, bowed slightly, and said politely and elegantly: "Hello, Grandpa Ji."
Grandpa Ji's eyes were full of joy and he hurriedly introduced his grandson.
Ji Hanzhou stood up and took the lead in extending his hand. "Hello, Miss Ye. I'm Ji Hanzhou. Nice to meet you."
Ye Zhihan smiled lightly and nodded slightly: "Hello, Mr. Ji." Her every move showed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
For some reason, Ye Zhihan saw endless tenderness in the eyes of this man she met for the first time. That tenderness seemed to be able to attract people deeply, making people want to immerse themselves in it.
After the greetings, Mr. Ji said, "I heard that Mr. Ye and his wife are interested in finding a marriage partner for Hanhan?"
Ye Qinghua, Ye's father, bowed slightly, and said modestly: "Mr. Ji, you are too serious. I do have such an idea, and I am also afraid that the children will be deceived. So I feel relieved after selecting them. In the end, it depends on the two children's own wishes."
Old Master Ji: "That's right. There are many people out there who are interested in a girl as good as Hanhan, so we have to choose carefully. Uh, I wonder if you two think my grandson is a good match for Hanhan?"
Knowing that the little girl was shy and didn't like this kind of occasion, Ji Hanzhou stood up and said earnestly, "Uncle and aunt, I've heard from Xichen a long time ago that your lotus pond is unique, but I've never had the chance to see it. Now that the lotus is in full bloom, could you trouble Miss Ye to lead us on a tour?"
"The weather outside is just right. It's getting close to evening and the lotus pond has a unique charm. Xichen is already on his way back. When you finish seeing the scenery, it'll be time for you to come back for dinner. Go ahead." Ye's mother, Su Jinhe, is as her name suggests. Her voice is soft and gentle, like a spring breeze.
After the two left.
Ye Qinghua, Ye's father, turned to Old Man Ji and said, "Han Zhou is undoubtedly a promising young man, outstanding and outstanding. The Ji family is a century-old prestigious family, but my daughter has been spoiled since she was a child..."
Before Ye Qinghua could finish her words, Old Master Ji hastily expressed his opinion: "Girls should be pampered, even if they are a little spoiled. Besides, your daughter is well-educated, well-mannered, and beautiful. I think it's too high for Han Zhou to marry. Don't worry, I promise that I will never treat Han Han unfairly in the future."
Mr. Ji gave the Ye family enough face and was very humble, leaving Ye Qinghua unable to refute for a while.
"To be honest, we are very satisfied with Han Zhou. But I only have this one precious daughter. Her mother and I are just supervising her major events in her life. The main thing is to respect her wishes." Father Ye said with a chuckle.
Mr. Ji only hopes that his grandson can do better: "Well, the children's wishes are the most important, so let's give the decision-making power to the young people."
Ji Hanzhou looked at the girl walking lightly in front of him. Her waist-length hair fluttered gently in the breeze, and her skirt swayed with her steps. The scene that had appeared in his dreams countless times was now before his eyes. Before he knew it, he had arrived at the lotus pond.
Ye Zhihan turned around and said in a voice as clear as an oriole: "Thank you, Mr. Ji, for helping me out just now."
Ji Hanzhou's eyes were as deep as the sea. He leaned forward slightly, and spoke in a gentle and low voice, looking into Ye Zhihan's eyes as clear as lake water: "What do you think about the question Grandpa asked just now, Miss Zhihan?"
Ye Zhihan raised his head slightly. The sun was setting. Ji Hanzhou was extremely gentle under the afterglow. The breeze seemed to be mixed with their breath: "Ah? What did you say?" Ye Zhihan, ah Ye Zhihan, it's so embarrassing. It's not like she hasn't seen handsome guys before. Why did she get distracted just now?
Looking at the girl in front of him with red ears, Ji Hanzhou chuckled, with a hint of joy in his voice: "Let me introduce myself again, I am Ji Hanzhou from the capital. I heard that Miss Ye from Lancheng is interested in marriage, so I would like to introduce myself to you and hope to marry Miss Ye and share prosperity with you."
If she was surprised just now, then Ye Zhihan was completely dumbfounded now. She thought that this prince of the Beijing circle was dissatisfied with the marriage and pulled her out in order to warn her to give up the idea of marrying into the Ji family. But what is the situation now, ah ah ah!
Even though her heart was already filled with turmoil, Ye Zhihan remained calm. She walked to the other side of the lotus pond and spoke slowly, "With President Ji's current achievements, he should not need a family marriage. Besides, Kyoto has never lacked aristocratic families. Why did President Ji choose me?"
Ji Hanzhou walked to a point half a step away from Ye Zhihan and stopped, his eyes firm and ardent: "I heard that Miss Ye from Lancheng is gentle and graceful, kind-hearted, and has excellent appearance and character, so I came here to ask for her hand in marriage."
Listening to the other party's praise, Ye Zhihan didn't take it seriously and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Mr. Ji, don't you know that rumors are not credible?"
Ji Hanzhou took another small step forward, leaned forward and approached, his voice low and magnetic: "But I have taken it seriously. Since you want to form a marriage alliance, why don't you give it a try with me?"
This gentle and lingering look again, like a couple in love, but isn't this their first meeting? Why did she have this illusion? Ye Zhihan felt her heartbeat speed up. She raised her eyes again and regained her usual dignity: "Then why should I marry you?"
Ji Hanzhou raised his lips, full of confidence: "A talented man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
Seeing that the woman in front of him was unmoved, Ji Hanzhou said, "After marriage, I will not interfere too much in your private affairs and will respect all your choices. Alternatively, Miss Ye can raise any request you have.
Ye Zhihan turned around and thought for a moment: "If it's just a marriage, and we don't interfere with each other's lives in the future, I can consider it."
The tenderness in Ji Hanzhou's eyes faded a little: "I promise that after marriage you will still be free and will not be bound by the identity of a wealthy wife. You can do whatever you like. However, you are my wife Ji. We will spend the rest of our lives together. I do not accept a marriage of convenience."
Ye Zhihan looked at the elegant man in front of him. He had a serious attitude and there was no perfunctory look in his eyes. Ye Zhihan thought, perhaps, it would be good to spend the rest of his life with someone who treats him with respect.
Without giving her too much time to think, Ji Hanzhou immediately asked, "What do you think, Miss Ye?"
At this moment, the servant happened to come over and call for dinner, but the man in front of her did not let her go and insisted on getting an answer.
