Happy Spring Every Year

The two of them were sitting across from each other at the table, but they couldn't help but lean closer to each other, their eyes locked on one another, and in the silence, they seemed to have said a thousand words.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the hall, followed by a cautious voice:

"Sir, it's almost midnight."

When the hour of Hai arrives, everyone should leave the Imperial Garden and return home.

Shen Jiasui was suddenly frightened when he heard Nanfeng's voice and stepped back, sitting up straight in an instant.

But her face was flushed, and her drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, making her look very guilty.

Jiang Xun couldn't help but raise his lips.

He no longer wanted to restrain himself in front of Shen Jiasui, so he let a smile creep up to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, revealing an unprecedented cheerfulness and unrestrainedness.

"Wait a minute."

Jiang Xun turned his head and raised his voice, instructing Nanfeng outside the hall.

Upon hearing this, Nanfeng immediately responded with a "yes" and consciously retreated under the eaves outside the hall.

When Jiang Xun withdrew his gaze, he saw Shen Jiasui's shoulders obviously relaxed, and he felt relieved.

"Miss Shen."

He called out softly again, and now, he didn't know whether it was because the remaining medicine had not yet worn off or because his emotions were too strong, but his breathing was a little hot.

"To boldly confess my feelings to you in private today is extremely rude and presumptuous."

"Xiuzhi doesn't dare to break the rules again, so I'll ask Miss Shen if he's qualified.

From now on, I will be with you day and night, through the cold and heat, and we will see each other often."

This was the deepest hope and expectation hidden in Jiang Xun's heart all these days, and tonight he finally expressed it in front of Shen Jiansui.

As soon as he said this, he clenched his hands on the low table tightly, but he suppressed all his anxiety and uneasiness, raised his eyes and looked directly at Shen Jiasui, and continued:

"If Miss Shen is willing to show her favor to Xiuzhi, then Xiuzhi should choose an auspicious day to personally visit General Shen and Madam Shen."

"Miss Shen, I'm in a difficult situation, and my family background... Perhaps General Shen and Madam Shen would find Xiuzhi too difficult to entrust with their affairs."

"But Xiuzhi won't give up. I'll shamelessly visit them a few more times and make sure General Shen and Madam Shen see my sincerity."

"After obtaining the consent of my parents, Xiuzhi must prepare the three matchmakers and six rituals, respectfully inform the heavens, the earth, and the ancestors, and choose an auspicious time to respectfully marry Miss Shen."

"From now on, you and I will live together, and we have a long future ahead of us—"

At this point, Jiang Xun's face flushed, and he was so nervous that his mouth was dry.

Shen Jiasui turned her head slightly, and Jiang Xun's words sounded like thunder in a spring night to her ears.

She...she had never thought that one day she would become husband and wife with Lord Jiang...

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Shen Jiasui felt her chest beating violently. She was so scared that she quickly raised her hand to touch her chest. A blush instantly spread from her ears to her neck.

Will she?

Shen Jiasui hadn't figured it out yet, but her heart seemed to have already agreed for her.

bang bang bang-

It felt like it was about to jump out of my chest, just to get closer to the person on the opposite side.

Jiang Xun has been waiting for a long time.

But he didn't dare to urge her. He just sat there obediently, looking at Shen Jiasui eagerly, like a good child waiting for candy.

Shen Jiasui bit his lower lip lightly. At this moment, countless images flashed through his mind. His past and present lives were intertwined, and the light and shadow flowed, finally all frozen on that crimson figure.

She raised her eyes slightly, even though she was really shy and flustered at the moment, she still chose to look directly at Jiang Xun.

In just a moment, she fell into a pool of spring water, which was the hot yet gentle gaze of Lord Jiang.

Shen Jiasui's heart suddenly softened, and endless joy burst out of his chest without any hesitation.

She is an honest and brave woman. Once she makes up her mind, she will never hesitate or retreat.

"Master Jiang."

Shen Jiasui called him softly.

Jiang Xun suddenly sat up straight, and saw Miss Shen's eyes curved, tears in her smile, like a warm light pouring down on him, illuminating him.

"If that person is you."

"From now on, I wish to be with you through thick and thin, through thick and thin, year after year... always by your side."

"So, go ask my parents for marriage, Lord Jiang. I'll be waiting for you."

Every word Shen Jiasui spoke was firm and clear, and all of it fell into Jiang Xun's heart.

Jiang Xun felt his heart tremble, and a smile suddenly appeared in his eyes, but he could no longer hold back his tears.

Ten years of darkness, one day of clarity.

From then on, there was always warm sunshine above my head, and I walked in the light, with flowers blooming at every step.

"I couldn't ask for more."

"Year after year..."

----

Nanfeng was getting a little impatient and was hesitating whether to urge him again, but he was secretly glad that he was the one who came this time.

If Xifeng was the impatient person, he would have lifted the curtain and rushed in long ago, which would have ruined the young master's life.

Nanfeng was daydreaming when footsteps were finally heard from the inner room.

He was delighted and turned around to go forward, and saw Shen Jiasui and Jiang Xun coming out one after another.

Nanfeng's expression changed slightly.

You must know that Xifeng has explained in detail that it is not appropriate for the young master to stay at the hotel.

Although he thought so, he was not a talkative person after all, and looked at Jiang Xun as if asking for instructions.

Unexpectedly, before Jiang Xun could say anything, Shen Jiasui spoke up: "Nanfeng, I'll still leave through the secret passage. Please give me a torch."

"As for Lord Jiang, I have already advised him not to see me off. You can just take care of him yourself."

"Yes!"

Nan Feng responded crisply and loudly, then was stunned for a moment and couldn't help scratching his head.

Hey, the Master hasn't spoken yet, why is he listening to Miss Shen so much...

Ahem, maybe it’s because the young master follows Miss Shen obediently, which makes him feel that Miss Shen will be the one in charge of this family in the future.

Sure enough, the next moment, he heard his master say, "Nanfeng, do as Miss Shen says."

Nan Feng’s inner thoughts: Look, look!

Shen Jiasui took the torch, turned to Jiang Xun and said, "Master Jiang, time is running out, I won't ask for your resignation from Elder Lin. Please remember to tell him for me."

Jiang Xun nodded, his eyes fixed on Shen Jiasui's face, never moving away.

"Okay, it's dark in the secret passage, at least let Nanfeng take you there."

Shen Jiasui turned around and smiled at Jiang Xun, "It's nothing, no need to bother."

As she spoke, she jumped into the well quickly and the fire quickly disappeared into the secret passage.

The surroundings suddenly became silent.

The snowflakes are falling outside, and it is almost New Year's Eve.

Da da da--

The sound of brisk footsteps came from the corridor under the eaves and landed beside Jiang Xun.

"Did you get what you wanted?"

The one with the nonchalant voice was none other than Mr. Lin.

"I was afraid of disturbing you, so I waited until Miss Shen left before I dared to come out."

Jiang Xun did not look back, his eyes fell on the lanterns under the eaves, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly:

"Teacher, I'm so lucky."

"Look at you, you're so worthless."

Mr. Lin laughed, but if you looked at his expression, you could see relief and love in his eyes.

"Xiuzhi, Miss Shen is a very good girl. The teacher will not be wrong."

"From now on, for Miss Shen's sake, you must be more self-disciplined, cherish your life, and live a long and healthy life with Miss Shen until old age."

Jiang Xun tilted his head when he heard this, and vaguely saw a trace of melancholy on his teacher's face.

He opened his mouth, about to speak, but hesitated. Finally, he changed the subject and said with a smile, "Teacher, how about a game of chess?"

Old Lin suddenly came back to his senses and turned back into his old naughty boy self. He glanced at Jiang Xun up and down, even deliberately lingering on a certain part.

"Are you still interested in playing chess?"

Jiang Xun: “…”

Well, it seems that he wasted his time.

"Since that's the case, I'll go and rest."

Jiang Xun turned around and walked inside. Old Lin immediately came over and pulled his arm with a teasing look on his face.

"Come on, Xiuzhi, tell the teacher how you managed to win Miss Shen's heart just now."

"The teacher is either curious or worried that you're not good at speaking, so he's checking for your shortcomings and filling them in for you."

"Did you touch her hand? If you are so frivolous, Xiu Zhi, it's your fault."

"Hey Xiuzhi, why are you blushing?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, young man, you still have a long way to go..."

Wenhua Pavilion was noisy again, and one could faintly hear Jiang Xun's reluctant excuses and pleas for mercy.

The warm room is filled with light and fireworks are set off every year.

An old house where a treasure.

If Yu Jiangxun and Shen Jiasui are the bright sunshine and the redeeming love, then Mr. Lin is the gentle spring breeze and rain, the benefactor who recreates the soul.
