Chapter 1851 - 1854: Engagement (Part 3)
As they released their embrace, Hua Hua’s eyes were a bit misty, and to his surprise, Gu Shaocheng’s eyes were also moist. The relief after all the vicissitudes made them both laugh, and Gu Shaocheng patted his shoulder: "You’re about to start a family; you can’t be too willful in the future."
Ling Yin walked over to Hua Hua’s side, and Gu Shaocheng took Hua Hua’s hand and placed it in Ling Yin’s palm: "He’s the only brother who worries me. Although he has a lot of annoying habits, I can’t bear to let him suffer at home. I hope you won’t let him suffer in the future. From now on, I entrust him to you."
Ling Yin held Hua Hua’s hand tightly, and some glances were understood only by the three of them.
Ling Yin’s gaze was full of determination: "I’ll live up to the trust."
Gu Shaocheng raised his wine glass, feeling conflicted with the reluctance and comfort of seeing a precious gem he had carefully nurtured about to be lost: "I wish you both happiness together till old age."
Hua Hua held the wine glass in both hands, and the three of them raised their glasses together for a toast.
They drank it all up.
They exchanged smiles!
Hua Hua poured himself another glass of wine, specifically to toast Chenxing, saying: "Chenxing, I toast to you."
Chenxing giggled: "I can’t drink alcohol; Shaocheng doesn’t allow it."
"I’m your brother; it’s my engagement, and you won’t drink? Are you not giving me face?" Hua Hua raised his eyebrows playfully.
Chenxing pursed her lips and decisively raised her glass to clink glasses with Hua Hua. She was just about to say her blessing when Hua Hua spoke first, saying a bunch of words that Chenxing couldn’t understand.
"Maybe you don’t know, but at one point, I really thought of a hundred ways to kill you."
Chenxing exclaimed "Ah" in confusion, not understanding what Hua Hua meant by this. She nervously said, "Although you cheated me out of a lot of money, I didn’t chase you to pay it back, so why be so malicious? I’m your real sister!"
Hua Hua laughed heartily, and as he laughed, a tear rolled from the corner of his eye. He casually wiped it away and spread his hands, saying: "Luckily, I didn’t do it, or I’d regret it for life. Come, my dear sister, let’s toast, and in the future, you must grow old together with my brother, and don’t forget to wish me and Ling a long and happy life."
"Alright, I wish you and Brother Ling a long and happy life together."
At this engagement party, Hua Hua toasted with everyone, with Ling Yin standing silently beside him, his lifelong partner.
During the exchange of engagement rings, Hua Hua appeared especially solemn, making it seem like a wedding vow, as he asked himself.
"Mr. Ling Yin, I solemnly ask you, do you wish to be my partner, through wealth or poverty, health or illness, loving me forever, cherishing me, considering me as your only partner, and guaranteeing never to become straight?"
As the last sentence fell into the eyes of the crowd, Chenxing covered her mouth and buried herself in Gu Shaocheng’s arms, laughing until her stomach hurt.
Hua Hua scanned the room with his radiant gaze: "What are you laughing at? I’m very serious and earnest, okay?"
Ling Yin’s lips lightly curled up: "I do."
Then he thought for a moment, whether he should ask the same question, but before he could say anything, Hua Hua eagerly replied: "I do too."
"Hmm?"
Hua Hua blushed slightly: "I promise to regard you as my only partner and never become straight!"
Ling Yin smiled and hugged his neck, giving him a kiss.
In front of Wang Fengtong, Gu Shaocheng, Nightingale, Bai Wuqing... and all the family members, they exchanged engagement rings with each other.
At that moment, champagne and ribbons flew together, heightening the atmosphere to its peak.
