After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

It's approaching evening.

Lu Shiyi and his wife returned from outside.

I'm quite tired after playing all afternoon.

Before returning, they were snuggling together on the beach watching the sunset, but they only watched the first half of the film.

In the second half, Fu Cheng suggested watching the game from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa.

It was getting late and the wind was getting strong at the beach.

Of course, this was the reason Lu Shiyi heard.

Fu Cheng declined to reveal the real reason at this time.

The weather was perfect; today's sunset was especially breathtaking.

At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun was streaming into the villa through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and combined with the meticulous decorations inside, it was absolutely beautiful.

……

When the young couple entered the house, Fu Chen and the old man were sitting on the sofa, whispering to each other with their heads close together. When they saw the couple return, they quickly separated.

"Sister-in-law, brother, you're back."

Fu Cheng gave a faint "hmm," and said, "Didn't you say you were going to stay in your room? Why are you sitting in the living room?"

Fu Chen: "..."

He just said it casually, but my brother took it too seriously.

At this moment, the old man stood up, pulled his eldest grandson Fu Cheng to his side, and whispered to encourage him, "Cheng, don't be a coward later. Confess and you'll be treated leniently. The sooner you confess, the less you'll suffer."

Fu Cheng: "..."

Grandpa knows how to "encourage" people; if this were an athlete before a competition, they might just drop out.

Fu Cheng frowned and gave a perfunctory "hmm".

He should have firmly resisted his grandfather and that brat Fu Chen coming over back then...

Well, that's it. He had prepared himself mentally and was very calm on the way back, but after his grandfather encouraged him like that, his heart started pounding.

Especially when he turned around and saw Lu Shiyi not far away.

"Don't back down later. Confess and you'll be treated leniently. The sooner you confess, the less you'll suffer..."

His grandfather's words were like a spell, lingering in his ears...

After encouraging his eldest grandson, Grandpa Fu turned around and secretly gave his second grandson an OK sign, meaning: Don't worry, the mission is complete, we can take our final bow now.

The two of them were just whispering to each other, discussing this very topic.

The old man's encouragement was a result of their mutual agreement.

To be precise, it was Fu Chen's forceful suggestion that thwarted the old man's plan.

He knows his older brother best; under pressure, even the bravest man will emerge. His brother is like that at work, and he must be like that in his relationships as well.

Fu Cheng turned around and pulled Lu Shiyi upstairs.

"What did Grandpa just say to you?" Lu Shiyi asked with concern.

Because she noticed that her husband's expression seemed a bit off.

How should I put it? His eyes were a little unfocused, and he seemed a bit guilty?

Fu Cheng paused for a moment, then spoke after a brief silence, "It's nothing. Grandpa scolded me for not bringing you back sooner. It's windy at the beach in the evening, and you're more likely to catch a cold."

Lu Shiyi chuckled, "Is that all? Don't you often get scolded by Grandpa? You should be used to it by now."

Fu Cheng: "..."

The couple returned to the second floor of the villa.

At this moment, the view in front of the floor-to-ceiling window is just as beautiful and tranquil as I imagined. Standing in front of the window, looking at the boundless sea that shimmers with golden light, I feel a sense of peace and tranquility, which makes me feel relaxed and comfortable.

Beside the window was a candlelight dinner that Fu Cheng had specifically instructed someone to prepare in advance.

Otherwise, neither Grandpa Fu nor Fu Chen could have accurately predicted Fu Cheng's plan to be revealed tonight.

Lu Shiyi wrapped her arms around Fu Cheng's neck and offered him a sweet kiss.

It's rare to see this romantic side of her husband; she should definitely encourage him.

After this back-and-forth exchange, the two finally sat down at the table.

Lu Shiyi picked up the red wine on the table, clinked glasses with her husband, took a small sip, and said jokingly, "We just came to the beach for a vacation, but you've really gone all out. A villa, decorations, and a candlelight dinner. Come on, is there anything you've done wrong that you need to confess?"

It's no wonder she suddenly decided to make this joke; isn't that how it's always portrayed in TV dramas?

Fu Cheng, who had just taken a sip of red wine, almost choked upon hearing this.

He was unsure whether to go along with it or deny it...

Lu Shiyi accurately captured the man's momentary panic. "What's with your reaction? Did I really hit the nail on the head?"

Fu Cheng steadied himself, his expression turning serious. "I do have something I want to tell you."

Looking at her husband, who had suddenly become serious, Lu Shiyi was unsure whether he was just putting on an act or if he really had something to confess.

She was just saying it casually, just making a joke.

"Confess? Confess what?" Lu Shiyi stared intently at Fu Cheng with bright eyes, very curious about what her husband was hiding from her.

Or perhaps, what kind of show is this guy up to now?

Fu Cheng lowered his eyes, as if he was preparing for something.

He had never been so nervous before, especially when he thought of his grandfather's encouraging words.

A moment later, he slowly got up and walked to Lu Shiyi.

Seeing Fu Cheng slowly bend down and kneel, Lu Shiyi was so frightened that she quickly reached out to support him.

"Hey, hey, it's not that serious, it's just admitting something, there's no need to make such a fuss..."

Fu Cheng was halfway to taking something out of his pocket when he heard his wife's words and froze instantly.

Is there something wrong with the procedure he followed?

Um, this is really my first time, and the fact that I'm being honest about this makes me a little nervous.

The key issue is that I really don't have much experience.

Fu Cheng's initial plan was simply to have the butterfly diamond ring, which carried his grandmother's expectations, worn by him personally on his wife's hand, and to do so only after Lu Shiyi knew his true identity, without any concealment.

Therefore, he planned to kneel down on one knee to reveal his identity to his wife, and then confess his love and put a ring on her finger.

In TV dramas, this is usually how it goes: the man kneels on one knee to put a ring on his partner's finger.

Unexpectedly...

"October 11th, actually I wanted to..."

Fu Cheng tried to struggle a little more, but Lu Shiyi pulled him to his feet.

“Let’s stand up and talk this out. If you keep acting like this, people will think I’m a tigress, especially since Grandpa and Fu Chen are still downstairs.”

Lu Shiyi is now certain that her husband really has something to tell her.

Fu Cheng: "..."

He truly hadn't expected things to escalate to this point before the main issue even began.

"Eleven, actually I am..." Fu Cheng gripped Lu Shiyi's shoulders tightly, ready to get to the bottom of it.

"Buzzing..."

The phone on the table suddenly vibrated, and the sound was particularly jarring.

The two looked over at the same time.

It belongs to Lu Shiyi.

She glanced around, turned back, and discussed with Fu Cheng, "Why don't you pause for a bit, I need to take this call, and then we can continue?"

Fu Cheng nodded silently.

Perfect timing, give him some time to organize his thoughts...
