Su Banxia went to the Lou family several more times after that. Every time she went, she could feel Jiang Zhi's meticulous care. She felt warm in her heart and felt that she was becoming more and more integrated into this family.

However, time flies, and the final exams of the school are soon here. She needs to devote herself to writing papers and preparing for exams. She is surrounded by various materials and books every day, and is so busy that she doesn't have enough time and energy to go back and forth to the Lou family frequently.

Jiang Zhi was always thinking about Su Banxia, ​​and was afraid that she wouldn't eat well in the school cafeteria. She would always carefully prepare all kinds of delicious dishes, and then said to Lou Jiyun with anticipation: "Jiyun, bring these to Banxia to nourish her body. Don't let her get tired."

Lou Jiyun smiled and nodded every time, taking it carefully, thinking about how happy Su Banxia would be when she ate these delicacies.

Lou Jiyun knew that it was not easy for Su Banxia to look up information for her thesis, so she took the initiative to help.

Not only that, he even collected and organized the exam review materials for her and thoughtfully marked the key points.

Su Banxia's roommates were forced to feed them dog food all day long after seeing this. One of the roommates who already had a partner sighed sourly, "Boyfriends are really incomparable. Comparing yourself to others is so frustrating. Look at Professor Lou, and then look at the one at home..."

Su Banxia faced a busy week of review and exams. After meeting Lou Jiyun's parents, her relationship was finally settled.

She rushed between the library and the dormitory every day, concentrating on her papers and exams.

Time flies. Su Banxia, ​​who finally finished the exam, sat lazily on the chair in the dormitory like a lazy kitten.

She stretched herself, picked up her phone, and prepared to send a message to Lou Jiyun to share her joy at the end of the exam.

However, when she opened the chat interface, she was suddenly stunned.

Her eyes widened in disbelief: For three consecutive days, she and Lou Jiyun had not met, called, or even sent messages. This was too abnormal!

Su Banxia sat blankly in the chair, staring straight at the WeChat chat history. The record stopped three days ago, as if silently telling of the estrangement between the two.

Her brows gradually furrowed, her mouth pouted slightly, and her face was full of loss and confusion.

Su Banxia's roommate saw her like this and came over curiously to ask, "Xia Tian, ​​what's wrong with you? Your exams are over, why don't you go meet up with Professor Lou to relax?"

When Su Banxia heard this, she felt a surge of resentment. Her voice unconsciously rose a few notches as she spoke with a hint of anger and grievance, "What's the point of making an appointment? He hasn't contacted me for three days, and I'm just now realizing it! How can a professor like him be as busy as I am with his final semester? He didn't even take the initiative to contact me, and is he waiting for me to contact him? Do you still consider me his girlfriend?"

Another roommate quickly stepped forward to offer comfort, whispering, "Could it be that you were so busy with something else that you forgot? Professor Lou likes you, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it!"

Su Banxia snorted coldly and said angrily, "Hmph, he'd better be like this. If he deliberately ignores me, then we'll break up when we meet!"

She folded her arms across her chest, her face full of stubbornness.

"Okay, don't think about it. The holidays are coming up soon. There's plenty of time for a date with your professor Lou. Let's go out for a walk together today."

"Oh!" Su Banxia responded listlessly and was dragged out of the dormitory by her roommate.

Like a puppet, she mechanically followed her roommate's footsteps around the school. As she walked, she wondered what Lou Jiyun was doing. She didn't care where her roommate took her. She would look down at her phone from time to time, hoping that a message from Lou Jiyun would suddenly pop up...

Su Banxia was dragged listlessly along by her roommate, lost in her own thoughts the entire way, uninterested in everything around her. She would periodically glance down at her phone, eagerly anticipating a message from Lou Jiyun, but the screen remained silent.

"Xia Tian, ​​don't overthink it. Professor Lou might have something urgent to deal with."

"Yeah, you two have such a good relationship, how could there be any problems because of such a small thing."

Su Banxia forced a smile: "I know, but I can't help but imagine it. He has never been like this before."

Before they knew it, they arrived at the school's auditorium. The door was closed and the surroundings were silent.

Su Banxia looked at the building in front of her doubtfully, her confusion growing even worse. "Why are we here?"

The roommate smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll know when you get there." Then he pulled her and opened the door of the conference hall.

It was pitch black inside. Su Banxia subconsciously clutched her roommate's hand and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why is it so dark?"

At this moment, the lights suddenly came on and the entire conference hall was instantly illuminated.

Su Banxia subconsciously squinted her eyes to adapt to the sudden light.

When she saw the scene in front of her, she was stunned.

On the stage, Lou Jiyu was looking at her from afar with a gentle smile on his face.

There were flowers beside him, and a path made of rose petals on the ground, extending all the way to Su Banxia's feet.

What surprised her even more was that she saw the Su family and the Lou family were present. They stood in the audience, their faces filled with blessing smiles. Su Zeqi and Su Jingmo winked at her, Jiang Zhi's eyes were full of love, and Lou Chuanqiong also rarely smiled.

In the crowd, Su Banxia also saw Qu Qingdai and Huo Jianqiu, who were also looking at the scene in front of them with envy.

Su Banxia's hands unconsciously covered her mouth, her eyes full of surprise and emotion. She stood there blankly, not knowing how to react for a moment.

"Silly girl, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and go upstairs." Her roommate smiled and pushed her.

Su Banxia finally woke up from her dream and walked slowly towards the stage along the path of petals with trembling steps.

With every step she took, her heart beat faster and the tears in her eyes accumulated more and more.

Walking up to Lou Jiyun, Su Banxia raised her head and looked at him, her eyes full of love and attachment. However, the grievance and uneasiness in her heart made her unable to help but ask, "You have ignored me these past few days. Do you want to end our relationship?"

"Yes!"

This short word, like a thunderclap, instantly exploded throughout the audience. Everyone widened their eyes in surprise and looked at each other, completely confused as to why Lou Jiyun answered like that.

The Su and Lou family members in the audience also showed puzzled expressions.

Qu Qingdai frowned and couldn't help but whisper to Su Jingmo: "What the hell is Lou Jiyun doing? Why would he say such a thing?"

Su Jingmo also looked confused and shook his head to express his confusion.

Su Banxia felt her heart suddenly shrink, a sharp pain hit her, and her eyes instantly moistened. She held back her tears and continued to ask in a trembling voice, "Because you don't like me anymore, right?"

"Correct!"

The atmosphere in the whole venue froze instantly, from surprise to disbelief. The people below were in an uproar, whispering and talking to each other, no one knew what was going on. The two people who were so sweet and loving a few days ago seemed like strangers today.

The Su family and the Lou family also began to discuss quietly. Anger began to appear on Su Liuxing's face. "What else does this brat say? I'll beat him up!"

Yu Wantong pulled him, shook her head gently, and a worried look appeared on her face.

Lou Jueming laughed and teased: "This kid, he didn't do it on purpose, don't make Banxia cry."

Lou Chuan Gu also smiled and nodded: "Maybe there will be some surprises."

After hearing these two answers, Su Banxia only felt a buzzing in her ears, and all other sounds disappeared. The two words that Lou Jiyun answered her kept lingering in her ears.

These two short words were like two huge mountains, pressing her down so hard that she couldn't breathe and making her completely despair of this relationship.

She tried hard to hold back her tears, and pulled a smile that was uglier than crying, pretending to be strong and said, "Okay, I understand."

After she finished speaking, she could no longer hold back her tears, turned around and ran off the stage crying, running desperately towards the door.

"Su Banxia! You fool! Big fool!" Lou Jiyu shouted at her back, his voice filled with affection and helplessness.

When Su Banxia heard the shout, she stopped abruptly and turned her back to everyone.

At this time, her face was already covered with tears, and the tears kept flowing like a faucet that couldn't be turned off, and couldn't be stopped. Her shoulders trembled slightly, and her whole body was immersed in great pain.

"I said, I want to end this relationship because I don't want you to be my girlfriend, I want you to be my wife, and belong to me forever!"

Su Banxia's tears stopped instantly after hearing these words. Her body shook slightly, and she slowly turned around and looked at him on the stage, her eyes full of shock and confusion.

"I said I don't like you because what I feel for you isn't liking, it's love. Do you understand? Silly boy! I love you!"

As Lou Jiyun spoke, he took out a carefully prepared ring from his pocket and slowly walked towards Su Banxia.

He knelt on one knee and held the ring in front of him, his eyes full of affection and expectation.

"Banxia, ​​from the moment we met, you have lit up my life. You are kind, gentle, and intelligent, and every smile of yours makes my heart flutter."

"These days, I have been planning our future. I know you are still studying, and I am willing to wait for you, until you graduate, until you are ready, and then I will marry you and take you home."

"I want to see your sleeping face every morning and sleep with you in my arms every night. I want to accompany you through every stage of life, whether it is sunny or rainy."

"I want to build a warm home with you, with our favorite decorations, pets we raise together, and our laughter."

"I know the road ahead may not be smooth, but as long as you are by my side, I will be fearless. I will use everything I have to protect you and prevent you from getting hurt."

Lou Jiyun looked at Su Banxia, ​​his eyes gleaming with determination. "Banxia, ​​marry me. Let me spend my whole life protecting and loving you."

Su Banxia looked at Lou Jiyun who was kneeling in front of her, tears blurred her eyes again, her lips trembled slightly, she wanted to say something, but she was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

After a long while, she finally calmed down and said in a tearful voice, "Do you know how sad I've been these past few days? I kept checking my phone, hoping for a message from you, even if it was just a simple greeting. I even started to doubt myself, wondering if I had done something wrong and annoyed you."

"My mind is filled with every moment we spent together, those beautiful memories. But in your silence these past few days, they've become so scary, as if they'll disappear at any moment."

Su Banxia sniffed and wiped the tears from her face with her hands. "I thought our love was over. I thought you didn't want me anymore."

"But now, you suddenly tell me this is all a misunderstanding, that you want to spend your life with me." Su Banxia smiled through her tears, her eyes gleaming with happiness. "Do you know how happy I am? This transformation from despair to happiness makes me feel like I'm dreaming."

"You're such a bad guy! Such a bad guy! You actually did this. Do you know how sad I was just now? I was already prepared to never have anything to do with you again in this life! You bad guy!"

"Yes, I am a bad guy, so are you willing to accept the proposal from a bad guy like me? Baby! Stop crying first and look at me. Are you willing to marry me?"

Su Banxia wiped her tears, then looked at Lou Jiyun with tearful eyes. She lowered her head slightly, a blush on her cheeks. "I do! I am willing to marry you, not because of this romantic proposal, but because you are Lou Jiyun, the one who understands me, loves me, and accompanies me. I will also love you with all I have and face everything in the future with you."

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity! My baby!"

Lou Jiyun stood up, gently put the ring on Su Banxia's finger, then stood up and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Don't cry, silly. It won't look good if you keep crying."

"Even if she's not good-looking, she's still your future wife!" Su Banxia burst into laughter and threw herself into Lou Jiyun's arms.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lou Jiyun responded lovingly, reaching out and hugging Su Banxia tightly.

There was an instant burst of warm applause and cheers from the audience. The Su family and the Lou family applauded, Su Zeqi and Su Jingmo cheered loudly, Jiang Zhi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes excitedly, and Lou Chuanqiong nodded with satisfaction.

Qu Qingdai took Huo Jianqiu's hand and said with envy, "Look at Professor Lou's proposal. It's so romantic. We got married too early and haven't had this kind of treatment."

Huo Jianqiu nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of longing: "Yes, I really hope that the one in our family can be so romantic for once."

Amidst the blessings of the crowd, at this moment, the whole world seemed to stop turning...
