After completing the ceremony, Kōyū could no longer contain his joy. He stood up, hugged Ai, and spun her around.

Ai hugged Kousuke tightly around the neck, enjoying the happiness of the moment.

After turning around, Kōyū put his arm around Ai and carefully helped her stand up.

He held Ai's shoulders, looked into her eyes, and couldn't hide the smile on his face. He sighed:

"Ai, I still find it hard to believe."

Was everything that just happened real?

Without answering Kyou's question with words, Ai raised her left hand, the diamond ring on her ring finger sparkling under the light.

She stared at the diamond ring for a few seconds, her gentle gaze radiating happiness.

Then, she shifted her gaze to Guangyou and asked in return:

What do you think?

I believe it's true!

After confirming, Kōyū released Ai, pounced on the bed, and covered his head with the blanket.

"Ah! It's true!"

"She agreed!"

"Ahhh!"

Hehehehe...

The slightly muffled sounds and laughter came through the blanket.

Seeing Kōyū so emotional, Ai couldn't help but chuckle.

She looked down at the diamond ring on her ring finger, a faint yet sweet smile on her face.

This was something she had never imagined.

Even after she got together with Guangyou, she never expected to receive something like this so soon.

This was quite unexpected for her.

Not to mention Guangyou, she herself was starting to wonder if everything that happened tonight was just a dream.

If so, she must wake up immediately.

Unlike others who want to stay in their dreams, she wants to wake up from her dream, then drag Guangyou to a jewelry store and buy one directly.

Everything that had just happened told her that it was all true.

After enjoying himself for a while, Guangyou lifted the covers, turned around, and sat on the edge of the bed.

He looked at Ai, stood up, walked to her side, and hugged her.

"Ai, I still..." Kousuke whispered into Ai's ear, "It feels like a dream."

“It’s not a dream,” Ai replied, placing her hand on Kousuke’s.

Burying his head in Ai's hair, inhaling her delicate fragrance, Kōyū slowly said:

"Many people spend their entire lives seeking but never obtaining."

"And I met you the first time I met you, and obtained this treasure."

"This is my luck."

"You stole my lines." And wasn't Ai thinking the same thing?

Before she met Guangyou, diamond rings were something she could never even dream of.

But now, she actually owns one.

However, the most important person is the one who gave the diamond ring.

The diamond ring is beautiful and dazzling, but in Ai's eyes, only a diamond ring that carries Guangyou's emotions is what she wants.

Otherwise, it would just be a ring set with stones that are primarily composed of carbon.

Aside from being a bit pricey, there's nothing particularly special about it.

"Kuyou." Ai called out Kuyou's name.

"Um?"

"Your existence is the most special thing to me."
