Jiang Yining suspected that he had heard wrongly.

Just when she couldn't believe her ears, He Chi took a step forward and slowly opened his mouth, "I'm asking, would you consider marrying me?"

This time, Jiang Yining looked directly into the man's deep black eyes and asked him, "Why?"

She always avoided his gaze every time she saw him. But at this moment, Jiang Yining's eyes were as calm as water, without any of her usual shyness and restraint.

He Chi raised his lip and thought this girl was quite interesting.

He thought for a moment and explained, "You and I are both facing the dilemma of our families urging us to get married, and neither of us seems to like anyone. Instead of constantly being forced into blind dates, where the person we end up marrying may not be the right one for us, why don't we give it a try?"

He Chi saw that Jiang Yining's expression was calm. He Chi, who always did everything with confidence, felt uneasy for the first time. "I am very satisfied with your conditions in all aspects."

"As for me, I'm more than two years older than you, which is suitable. Financially, I'm also okay. I can guarantee that we won't have any financial worries after we get married."

He Chi stared at Jiang Yining's beautiful eyes without moving.

Seeing her eyes move slightly, as if she was somewhat interested in his proposal, He Chi finally felt a little relieved.

He continued, "In my daily life, apart from occasional smoking and drinking, I don't have any other bad habits. If you mind, I can quit them all, but my personality is not very popular with girls."

He Chi had said everything he needed to say, and he was waiting for Jiang Yining's reply.

His words were very straightforward and realistic.

Jiang Yining's mood at the moment was very complicated. He felt a little lost, excited, but more uneasy.

She had been secretly in love with He Chi for many years and had never thought of confessing her feelings to him. With Zhang Qiao's encouragement, she tried to be brave and finally took the first step, but He Chi directly sent her an invitation.

Invite her to walk into the palace of marriage together.

Just looking at He Chi's conditions, she definitely wouldn't dare to agree to them, as she was really marrying above her station.

Teacher Lin had mentioned to her before that He Chi’s grandmother ran a fairly large industrial company.

Because neither Mr. He nor He Chi are interested in running the company, it is now run by He Chi's aunt and uncle. They receive dividends every year, and the amount must be considerable.

So when He Chi said that there would be no financial worries after marriage, it was not an exaggeration at all.

Apart from these, there is one more important point: she likes He Chi.

Jiang Yining knew very well what she was thinking, and she didn't want to reject He Chi's proposal.

Under He Chi's gaze, Jiang Yining slowly said, "You can find someone with better conditions than me. After my mother passed away, my father remarried, and our family conditions are average."

"My family used to owe my uncle a lot of money for my mother's medical treatment. After I started working, I paid it back."

He Chi could see Jiang Yining's uneasiness.

What she meant by this was to hand the choice to him.

He Chi stared at her with his dark eyes, and said seriously, "Jiang Yining, I only like you as a person."

Jiang Yining understood his implication that he didn't care about her family background.

She heard He Chi say again, "As for the money you owe your uncle, I will pay it back for you."

Hearing this, Jiang Yining refused without thinking, "No, I can pay it back myself."

He Chi looked down at her, the corners of his lips curled up, "So you agree?"

"Or should I give you a few days to think about it, and then you can give me an answer when I return from my business trip."

He Chi has superior bone structure, three-dimensional brow bones, a high nose peak, and cold facial features. He usually gives people the impression of being cold and aloof.

But just now she saw the curve of his mouth and the smile in his black eyes, which inexplicably gave people a feeling of gentleness and pampering.

Jiang Yining blinked his eyes, thinking that he must have seen it wrong.

Thinking of He Chi's last words, Jiang Yining didn't know what was wrong with him, so he asked, "If I don't agree, will you find someone else?"

Her question stunned He Chi.

Will it?

Certainly not in recent years.
