"Not stupid." Xie Zhuzhou went over and grabbed the other person's hand. He thought his Little Yan was adorable no matter what.
After the afternoon swimming lesson, Xie Zhuzhou took everyone for a drive, or as he put it, "Letting the sheep roam freely."
Because Chu Yanzhang's curly hair makes him look like a lamb.
" Zhouzhou, can we date with marriage in mind? Of course, it's okay if we don't get married, I just want to be with you forever..." Chu Yanzhang said cautiously.
Xie Zhuzhou had just parked his car by the river when he heard Chu Yanzhang's words and couldn't help but cough violently.
Indeed, he had already asked Chu Little Yan to help him with that, they had kissed, and at the Great Yan, they had physical intimacy and even shared a kiss. They were definitely going to get married.
But things are different in modern times; Chu Little Yan and he are only twenty years old. He just didn't expect that in the two days he hesitated, Chu Little Yan would beat him to it all again!
how so?!
Xie Zhuzhou looked into Chu Yanzhang's expectant eyes, and his heart skipped a beat. He took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.
" Zhouzhou?" Chu Yanzhang's voice carried a hint of grievance, but his eyes remained firm.
Xie Zhuzhou quickly shook his head, "Wait, don't rush. I think... we're still young. Marriage is a lifelong commitment, and I don't want you to regret it later." Regret my foot! In his mind, there's only widowhood, not divorce!
However, he still played the role of a mature and steady partner in front of Chu Little Yan, so he couldn't speak too hastily.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yanzhang's lips curled into a slight smile. " Zhouzhou, I've never been so sure before. I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you." If he weren't worried that Zhouzhou might be scared, he would have immediately taken out an engagement ring!
Unfortunately, he had to play the role of an obedient and sensible partner in front of Zhouzhou.
Xie Zhuzhou's heart melted completely at those words. He reached out and ruffled Chu Yanzhang's hair. "Alright, since you insist, let's get married. However, the wedding can't be rushed, so let's get engaged first!"
Chu Yanzhang's eyes lit up instantly. "Really? Zhouzhou, you said yes?"
Zhouzhou is attracted to good looks and will only meet more people in the future. Chu Yanzhang lacks confidence and is currently only thinking about keeping Xie Zhuzhou firmly by his side.
Of course, he didn't want to restrict Zhouzhou's freedom to make friends, so he wanted a more defined identity.
He thought Zhouzhou would say she would think about it, but he didn't expect that Zhouzhou seemed to have the same thoughts as him.
Seeing Chu Yanzhang's excited expression, Xie Zhuzhou couldn't help but laugh. He reached out and pinched Chu Yanzhang's cheek, teasingly saying, "Are you in such a hurry because you're afraid I'll run away?"
Chu Yanzhang grasped his hand, his voice slightly lower, "It's not that I'm afraid you'll run away, it's that I'm afraid someone else will snatch you away. Zhouzhou, you're so wonderful, I have to strike first."
Recently, he discovered that the people surnamed Ling, Qin, and An were all looking for him. They now know he lives near Zhouzhou. He doesn't know what they'll do next. Although he can control the situation, what if...?
What if he gets tired of him Zhouzhou?
It's impossible for him not to be nervous; he's not that confident... Besides, he's surrounded by rivals!
Seeing Chu Yanzhang's nervous expression, Xie Zhuzhou felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He gently took Chu Yanzhang's hand and said softly, " Little Yan, don't worry, my feelings won't change. Now that I've promised you, I won't look at anyone else."
Chu Yanzhang lowered his head slightly, "But, Zhouzhou, I always feel like I'm not good enough. You're so outstanding, and I..."
Xie Zhuzhou lowered his eyes, concealing the smile in them. In truth, besides being good at fighting and possessing a little cleverness, what else was outstanding about him?
What should I do? I really want to laugh.
If sleeping in class and slacking off at work is considered excellent, then he is truly excellent.
Everyone has self-awareness; Xie Zhuzhou was almost flattered to the point of despair by Chu Yanzhang.
He coughed lightly and said seriously, "You are the best. Don't care about what other people think. I don't think I've officially said I like you yet."
I love you, I love everything about you. Even if you have a few ulterior motives, it's just a small thing to me. Your happiness and joy are incredibly important to me.
Xie Zhuzhou's words made Chu Yanzhang's cheeks flush slightly. He lowered his head, but couldn't help but smile. Finally, unable to resist, he reached out and gently lifted Xie Zhuzhou's chin, tenderly kissing him.
The kiss was tender and lingering, as if it wanted to infuse all promises and feelings into it.
Xie Zhuzhou closed his eyes, immersing himself in the loving kiss.
A night breeze stirred, ruffling their hair as if they were entwined.
After a long while, their lips parted.
Xie Zhuzhou looked at Chu Yanzhang and said softly, " Little Yan, my feelings for you are not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a well-thought-out one."
So don't doubt yourself, and don't doubt me either.
Chu Yanzhang raised his head, tears glistening in his eyes, " Zhouzhou, I'll listen to you, please be kind to me too..."
"It hurts, it hurts the most." Xie Zhuzhou hugged him tightly. He thought to himself that Ling Zhenyang and the others always said that his Little Yan was a little green tea, didn't he know that himself?
Those people are just jealous of his Little Yan and gentleness.
After returning home, Xie Zhuzhou lay in bed, lost in thought before sleep. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Why did he have this feeling that Chu Little Yan was the one in control?
That won't do. He's the head of the family, and if anyone's going to propose an engagement, it should be him first! We can't let Chu Little Yan rush to snatch it away!
Besides, Little Yan is his wife, so it's only right that he decides on the engagement arrangements. An engagement banquet is a must, isn't it?
I feel like I don't value Little Yan enough if I don't do it.
Let's make it a big one, shall we? Although he's no longer socially anxious, how can he avoid feeling awkward and shy while still maintaining a grand occasion?
Early the next morning
Xie Zhuzhou looked at his handsome and charming older brothers, trying to figure out how to start the conversation. It was a pity his father wasn't there; he wondered what he was up to.
It doesn't matter whether my father is here or not.
"Brothers, I've thought about it for a long time, and I feel that Little Yan and I have been dating for over two months now, it's time to get engaged..."
Upon hearing Xie Zhuzhou's decision to get engaged to Chu Yanzhang, Ji Wangyun nearly choked on her porridge.
Third Brother's face turned into a gloomy, ghostly expression once again.
The older brother, expressionless, took out a handkerchief and began wiping his hands, saying casually, "This isn't urgent; you two are still young."
Xie Zhuzhou thought to himself, if this were ancient times, at twenty years old, he would already have several children. Moreover, in modern aristocratic families, it is common for people to get engaged early.
" Little Yan and I have already been intimate. I don't want to be a scumbag, and Little Yan himself is willing too." Xie Zhuzhou's words were like a giant torpedo thrown into a calm lake.
