273 The ring

Jiang se stretched out her hand and leaned on the sofa. She smiled as she looked up at him.

PEI Yi was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He looked around for his clothes.

“I’ll go buy it.”

The sky was still dark outside. It was not even seven o ‘clock yet. Most of the shops in the imperial capital had yet to open. Even if he could force Ling Ren to open their shops early, he was afraid that Jiang se would go back on her word.

He paused in the middle of putting on his clothes. He rolled his eyes and switched on the light in the study. Then, he squatted down in front of Jiang se.

“Sese, do you need a ring to propose?”

He had a pleading look on his face as he acted coquettishly towards her,

“Can you make up for it later? If I did it later, would you regret it?”

When he said this, he was a little afraid. After he finished speaking, he stood up and paced back and forth in the study room. He was very tall. It had been two months since they parted. Jiang se was not sure if she was seeing things, but he seemed to have slimmed down and grown taller.

Under the light, his shadow was elongated, covering her body.

PEI Yi’s gaze fell on the study table at the side. Behind the table was a row of bookshelves. The books on the shelves were all books that Feng Nan had read or liked in the past. He had a collection of every book.

There was a pen holder on the table, and his eyes lit up.

He took out a pen from the holder and licked his lips. Then, he sat down cross-legged in front of Jiang se. Her hand was still stretched out, and her fingertips were white and slender.

He removed the cover of the pen and held her hand with a little force. The heater in the room was on, but his fingertips were a little cold and trembling, clearly a little nervous.

“Sese, can you draw a ring and stamp it first?”

When he asked the question, he did not look up at her. Instead, he licked his lips and drew two lines on his hand. After making sure that the tip of the pen would not hurt her and color appeared, he tightened his grip on the pen and took a deep breath. The tip of the pen touched Jiang SE’s finger. His expression was so serious that it was close to sincerity. His lips were pursed tightly as he drew the ring. He still looked focused.

The tip of the pen was a little cold when it moved over her finger. She saw that he had drawn a ring on her ring finger. He held the pen tightly and looked at her finger with a silly smile. The ring was clearly drawn, but he felt that it was more beautiful on her hand than any jewelry she wore.

He lowered his head and blew on the dried traces. After it dried, he reached out and held her fingers.

“Sese, can you draw one first and add it later?” He was afraid that she would refuse, so he kept saying, ”

“When the time comes, we’ll do what you like. This is just a representative.”

He pulled their intertwined hands to his face and passed the pen in his other hand to Jiang se. He blinked. When he looked up at her, his long and narrow eyes seemed to be dyed with ink. They were clearly defined, and there was anticipation and nervousness in them. He was afraid that she would reject him, but he also hoped that she would agree to his request.

Actually, PEI Yi was not sure if she would really agree to it. He raised the pen in his hand and placed it in front of her, as if he was holding his heart and waiting for her to reply.

He did not know how adorable he looked right now. In Jiang SE’s heart, his intentions were more important than jewelry and diamonds.

She had seen too many luxurious clothes and jewelry and had owned them before. She really didn’t care about them anymore. However, the way he was holding the pen touched the softest corner of her heart.

“Alright,” he said.

She reached out to take the pen and nodded.

At first, PEI Yi was on tenterhooks. He felt that his heart was beating uncontrollably when he waited for her reply.

When she nodded in agreement, his heart started to beat wildly. It was so loud that it sounded like it was going to jump out of his throat. He let out a long breath and turned his face to kiss her hand that he was holding. Only this action could vent the excitement in his heart.

He looked at the ring that he had drawn as if it was a treasure. He clenched his fist and stared at it for a long time, not even willing to blink. He was very proud of himself.

The sky outside gradually brightened. After a while, it was already past seven. Jiang se went to change her clothes, leaving him to laugh in the study.

Even if it was a World of Ice and snow outside, at this moment, his heart was like a Hundred Flowers blooming.

He was filled with joy and couldn’t wait to share it with others. He picked up his cell phone and dialed nie Dan’s number. On the other end of the line, nie dan was still asleep. Once the call went through, he started to curse and swear. At this point, PEI Yi did not bother to argue with him.

To him, nie Dan’s curses were a compliment of envy and jealousy. He sneaked a peek outside, afraid that Jiang se would notice his childish act.

“Ah dan, I proposed to Sese.”

On the other end of the phone, nie dan was still a little unhappy about being woken up early in the morning. He grinned and said,

“Sese has promised me. Have you seen my ring? It’s in your message. Was it drawn? So what if it’s drawn? My wife drew it herself.”

He hung up the phone in a good mood. However, he could not calm himself down just from thinking about it. He called Cheng runing again. When Jiang se came out after changing, he had not washed up or brushed his teeth. He was sitting on the sofa with his upper body bare while making a phone call. He looked like a villainous person who had achieved success.

“Yi, it’s half-past seven.”

She reminded him.

She still had to visit Feng Zhongliang later. When he heard Jiang SE’s voice, he immediately agreed.

“Jie, coming immediately.”

“Oh, coming right up.”

Xiang qiuji, who had been woken up on the other end of the phone, mimicked him and said. PEI Yi was magnanimous and did not argue with him. He took his tone as a jealous villain and said, ”

“Alright, I’ll stop talking to you. I still have a lot of things to do today.”

He hung up the phone and jumped up from the sofa. He was very careful as he washed his face and brushed his teeth, afraid that he would wash off the ‘ring’.

Feng Zhongliang’s house was located on the south side of the imperial capital. It was not far from PEI Yi’s original house. It would only take about half an hour’s drive to get there. Needless to say, the houses on the east side of the imperial capital were places that money could not buy. On the south side was a well-known area for the wealthy. Before Jiang SE’s rebirth, she was already very familiar with this place. After her rebirth, she had thought about returning to this place countless times. However, she did not expect that she would need PEI Yi’s guidance when she wanted to return to ‘her’ own home one day.

At the thought of this, she could not help but tighten her grip on PEI Yi’s hand.

It was not even nine O ‘clock when the two of them arrived. Feng Zhongliang had always woken up early. When the car entered the Feng residence, PEI Yi tossed the car keys to the Feng residence’s security guard. When he pulled Jiang se out of the car, Feng Zhongliang had been waiting at the entrance for quite a while with his walking stick.

When he heard the news from the security at the front gate that they were coming, he should have been standing here waiting.

It had rained last night. Although the rain had stopped in the morning, the weather was still very cold. He was wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit inside and a black cashmere coat outside. He was meticulous and his back was straight. He looked as serious as the last time they met at the PEI family’s house.

However, Jiang se noticed that her grandfather seemed to have lost a lot of weight and aged after not seeing him for nearly a year.
