Chapter 80 "I've had too much fun, I need to catch my breath..."
Pei Xi sat in the taxi.
They went straight to the address given by Lü Dongyi.
The anxious tone of Lü Dongyi's voice kept replaying in his mind.
There are also words.
Dr. Guan has had an accident.
What happened?
Is someone going to attack Dr. Guan again?
The capybara nervously gripped the fabric on its thigh, squeezing it so tightly it almost turned into a dried plum.
However, this address is not a hospital.
It's a restaurant.
He called Guan Yue many times, but no one answered.
It was in a restaurant.
Hopefully nothing too serious will happen.
Is he drunk?
But if he was just drunk, why didn't Lü Dongyi just tell him that he was drunk?
Unfortunately, it's rush hour now.
The traffic is terrible.
Pei Xi: "Master, how much longer until we arrive?"
The driver honked his horn: "It'll probably take another half hour."
Pei Xi looked at the itinerary map; it was actually only 500 meters. "I'll get off here."
He decided to run over.
In late December, the cold wind whips against your face.
He arrived in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to put on a coat.
He was wearing only a thin cardigan, running on the street covered with fallen maple leaves.
Pei Xi didn't feel cold. She glanced at the navigation and kept running forward.
I was getting a little dizzy from running, but I finally finished the 500 meters and stopped at the destination indicated by the navigation.
It is a well-known restaurant in He City, decorated in a Western classical style, which is very exquisite.
However, Pei Xi had no time to worry about the decor; he just kept climbing the marble steps before mealtime.
"Hello, do you have a reservation?" a waiter outside the restaurant greeted with a smile.
"I...I didn't make an appointment, I...I came...to find someone." Pei Qi was panting heavily, and her words were broken.
Page: "Whom are you looking for?"
Pei Xi was a little anxious: "Close..."
But before he could finish speaking, the pageboy said, "Yes, yes, I'll take you there."
The capybara was still panting, its brain still deprived of oxygen: "What...what's wrong with him? Did he drink too much? Or..."
On the way, Pei Xi kept asking, but the servant boy just smiled and didn't say anything, repeating, "Please come with me."
He was led up the spiral staircase.
His heels were actually very sore, but he still mustered all his strength and jogged upstairs.
Beautiful and elegant classical melodies played in my ears.
Then.
Before him lay a table filled with shattered blue ice.
In an entire single-level apartment.
Flowers are everywhere.
There is also a large cedar tree covered with colorful lights and decorations.
Beside the cedar tree.
Guan Yue was dressed formally.
He rarely saw men wearing formal attire.
He was so beautiful that he almost forgot to breathe.
A few seconds later, he was breathing even more heavily.
The man shuffled along, his eyes revealing undisguised concern.
Pei Xi also walked forward, her tone carrying a hint of reproach, but more so of anxiety.
"You...you scared me to death." The capybara's eyes were wet. "Dongyi said something happened to you and told me to come quickly. The traffic was super, super congested. I called you...but you didn't answer...you scared me to death."
The man, holding a bunch of shattered blue ice crystals, stopped in front of him: "It's my fault. I thought this would surprise you a little."
Unexpectedly, it seems that things have backfired.
"Qiqi." Guan Yue handed the bunch of shattered ice blue flowers to the capybara. "Do you remember its flower language?"
"Hmm..." Pei Xi's brain finally returned to the oxygen-rich realm. "I remember, Blue."
Guan Yue: "It's because I love you every day."
"I want to see you every day after get off work, to hold you in my arms every night, and to have breakfast with you every morning. I want every day to be like this, and to live like this for the rest of my life. This is my life's dream. So... I want to propose to you."
This was the first time Pei Xi had heard a slight tremor in the man's voice, and his eyes, hidden behind his glasses, flickered with emotion.
The man pulled out an exquisite ebony box from somewhere, with a round little plum carved on the lid.
With a "click".
The ring box was opened.
A ring with a dazzling metallic luster caught the young man's eye.
The cool platinum is shaped using a unique forging technique, with a 9mm wide cabochon that is as smooth as ice. The edges are hand-polished with a soft curve, and a 0.5mm wide rose gold track is set in parallel, quietly converging into a Möbius strip-shaped clasp.
The side ring uses a prism device; rotating it 120 degrees will reveal the word "seven" in different languages.
“Actually, I ordered this ring the day you agreed to marry me.” The man’s fingers gripped the ring band. “But I didn’t get it until last week.”
Pei Xi's eyes lit up as he looked at the "Seven" displayed in various languages on the reflective side wall.
When he heard Guan Yue's words again, his eyes were filled with surprise.
The day I agreed to marry Dr. Guan.
That must have been a very, very long time ago.
"My name is on all of these." He was a little dazed and couldn't say anything, only uttering a meaningless sentence.
"Yes, they're all your names," the man repeated, a meaningless statement.
Then, the two of them suddenly choked up.
"I'm sorry." Guan Yue coughed twice. "I...I'm a little confused."
This was the first time Pei Qi had seen Guan Yue like this.
Hasty and helpless.
It has no direction.
Nervous.
It was as if he was performing a major surgery that he had never done before and was not confident about.
Pei Qi laughed.
A pair of dimples radiated joy.
It is happiness.
"It's okay, I'm willing."
The man met his round eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily: "You...you agreed?"
"Yes, hurry up and put it on for me." Pei Qi stretched out her fingers, her five fingers slightly spread.
Guan Yue finally recovered and held the young man's hand. With his other hand, his fingertips trembled slightly as he slowly pushed the ring along his knuckles.
The moment the ring, brimming with love, was pushed into the base of the ring finger, two souls that had never met before completed the most intricate union in the world.
Pei Xi's Adam's apple also moved.
Looking at the delicate and light ring on my ring finger.
But it felt very heavy.
It's so heavy it can hold a lifetime.
"Look how beautiful this is, it's our wedding ring."
"This is just an engagement ring; I've already started looking for a shop to custom-make the wedding bands," Guan Yue replied, his heart still pounding a little erratically.
“Then I’ll have a wedding ring custom-made. I’ll put a ring on your finger too, and I’ll make one that’s even more unique.” The capybara said, moving its fingers and admiring the ring on its finger from all angles.
"Qiqi, you've agreed, so you can't go back on your word." Guan Yue still couldn't quite believe that the capybara would agree so quickly.
The timid and reserved capybara may seem friendly to everyone, but in reality, it maintains a great deal of distance.
And so it was, generous and resolute.
She granted his request to live a lifetime.
“I know, I won’t go back on my word.” The capybara smiled, pursed its lips, and said with a firmer tone, “Because it’s Dr. Guan, I’m willing to take the risk.”
He originally didn't believe in anything about forever.
But the person I'll spend my whole life with.
It's Guan Yue.
He suddenly believed it again.
The man suddenly pulled him into his arms, his eyes solemn, as if making a vow: "I won't let you take any risks, Qiqi."
The two of them hugged for a long time.
Then.
Pei Qicai realized that the people who had just been dining downstairs were their relatives and friends.
He really wasn't paying attention at all.
Everyone rushed up at that moment.
Pei Xi was a little embarrassed and quickly pulled away from the man's arms.
Master and his wife were also there, along with Aunt Luo and Uncle Guan...
That was kind of awkward.
The capybara licked its lips and scratched the back of its head: "Why...why is everyone here?"
“We’ve been here the whole time, but A-Yue told us not to stay here, saying she was afraid it would scare you. We kept an eye on things and came up after we saw that you had agreed.” Aunt Luo walked over, holding a beautifully wrapped gift box. “This is a wedding gift for you two.”
Pei Qi reached out and took it: "Thank you... thank you Mom and Dad."
The two elders raised their eyebrows in delight, beaming from ear to ear, and immediately replied, "Alright, alright, you're welcome, Xiaoqi."
Guan Yue held his hand, her eyes as gentle as the moon.
Old Jiang also came forward and presented a pair of antique jade pendants: "These are my treasures, and they happen to be a pair, so I'm giving them to you two. Please keep them safe."
Pei Qi waved her hand: "Master, you... don't need to."
"Take it, take it. Why be so polite with me?" Old Jiang simply stuffed it into Guan Yue's hand. "You two should live a good life, live a good life..."
Pei Xi: "Master..."
"I won't say anything more. I'm going downstairs for a smoke, sigh." Before Old Jiang finished speaking, he had already turned and left.
Upon hearing this, the master's wife rushed forward and grabbed the person, demanding, "What did you say?"
A group of people laughed.
His senior classmates and Lü Dongyi's group chatted happily, carrying many gift bags in their hands.
Lu Dongyi said smugly, "Wasn't my acting great just now, sister-in-law?"
Su Mo: "That's great! You scared my junior brother half to death."
Pei Qi pursed his lips.
Xiao Jia popped her head out: "Come on, take a look at your big ring. Tsk, you'll be a married man soon."
Pei Qi generously extended his left hand, showing the ring to everyone, and a smile appeared on his lips: "It's very beautiful."
Su Mo: "The craftsmanship is good, and the design is also quite unique, showing good taste."
“Yes, but everyone shouldn’t just focus on the rings.” Pei Qi said, withdrawing his hand and then hugging Guan Yue, who hadn’t said much but wasn’t standing close to him.
He put his arm around the man's shoulder and solemnly introduced him, "You should also take a look at my husband."
After being showered with dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), the group let out a series of strange noises and then collectively grimaced.
Su Mo: "Xiao Qi, how come you've changed like this too?"
Lü Dongyi: "Don't let my senior brother have so much fun, sister-in-law."
Pei Xi tilted her head and looked at Guan Yue, who seemed to be standing like a statue: "Why aren't you saying anything?"
The man answered honestly, "I got too carried away and need to cool down a bit."
The capybara's dimples deepened, and she wrapped her arms even tighter around the man's shoulders.
Then a group of people gathered together to eat and chat.
The atmosphere was harmonious and warm.
Guan Yue, however, had no idea who he was looking for.
Pei Qi asked, somewhat puzzled, "Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived yet?"
Guan Yue: "Your senior brother Tong isn't here yet."
