In Buddhism, wealth, sex, food, fame, and sleep are known as the five desires that trouble people, like thorns pricking the skin, hence "Lust's Thorn."
The moment Yun Tan returned...
Chapter 76 How could it be so dirty? Xiao Tan is the cleanest.
Lu Wangshan never thought that Yun Tan would propose to him.
He was still planning his proposal for next month, worried about whether Yun Tan would agree to his proposal this time. He kept turning the proposal speech over and over in his mind for a long time and couldn't finalize it.
And now, the previous second he was still wishing that Yun Tan would agree to his proposal, and the next second he saw Yun Tan, wearing a white veil, proposing to him.
Lu Wangshan had no idea how to react, and he didn't even know when the tears started to fall.
Xiang Yin and Xiang Wu both held up their phones to record the video. Xiang Yin's eyes were red, and he tilted his head and whispered to Lu Chengjun that he hadn't seen his son cry in many years.
For more than ten seconds after Yun Tan said "Will you marry me?", Lu Wangshan did not react.
In fact, if he could still control his emotions, he would have helped Yun Tan when he knelt on one knee just now. But everything he saw was so shocking that he even wondered if he was dreaming.
Until Xiang Wu came over, pushed him, and said with a smile, "Promise it! Silly!"
She even held her phone in front of Lu Wangshan to record his rare expression, planning to edit it into a video later to make fun of him.
Lu Wangshan was pushed forward a step, and then he hurried towards Yun Tan eagerly. He even forgot to put on the ring, and forgot to help Yun Tan up. He just bent down and hugged Yun Tan tightly.
Only at this moment did he feel truly swept up by the strong and sincere emotion. The lag was so long and the force was so strong that his legs almost went weak. He also half-knelt down, his shoulders trembling slightly - this was the physical reaction caused by his forced control of tears.
"Thank you, Xiao Tan." He choked and buried his head deep in her neck.
Yun Tan was almost amused by him, but tears fell from her eyes as she laughed: "Why are you thanking me? So, are you willing to marry me or not?"
"Yes, of course I do."
He wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, and finally let go of her to look at the ring in the box. The light reflected the pattern on the inner circle, but at this moment Lu Wangshan really didn't have time to think about the meaning of the pattern. He eagerly stretched out his hand, lowered his head, and was unusually obedient, letting Yun Tan put the ring on him.
Everyone cheered. Xiang Wu held up his phone and approached Xiang Yin to ask, "Auntie, how do you feel now?"
Xiang Yin, tears still streaming down his face, was genuinely happy about this scene and jokingly said, "Thank you, Xiao Tan, for finally marrying my 30-year-old son."
Xiang Wu squatted down again, focusing the camera on Leo's long, black mouth: "Leo, you're about to become a legal puppy protected by marriage law!"
Leo seemed to understand what was happening, and he held his head high and looked extremely proud. "Woof!"
Yun Tan leaned in Lu Wangshan's arms and looked at Leo with a smile.
Yun Tan and Lu Wangshan both had turbulent waves in their hearts. All kinds of emotions spread across the long eight years and echoed in their hearts, making them not know how to react for a moment.
The fairy tales we read as children always seemed to end here, and no one knew what kind of excitement and adventures they would experience next.
So at this moment, Xiang Wu became the most cheerful and lively person.
After interviewing Leo, I interviewed Lu Kun and Liao Yinqiu. The two old people were really happy today. They didn’t know how long it had been since they were so happy. They wanted to write the invitations and arrange the wedding overnight. Their home was finally going to be lively.
"I'm going to edit all these videos and play them at your wedding!"
After saying that, Xiang Wu turned the camera to Lu Shiyue again. She exclaimed, "Oh my! There's another person crying here!"
Lu Shiyue raised his hand to block the camera, but Xiang Wu refused to listen and continued filming from a distance, zooming in: "Brother Xiaoyue, let me ask you this: are you crying because you're happy for your brother, or because your brother is getting married?"
Lu Shiyue didn't know why he was crying. He had known for a long time that his brother would definitely marry Yun Tan in the end, but he never thought that Yun Tan would propose. He was happy that his brother finally found love, and of course he felt a bit of emotion that was difficult to express in words - if Ruan Zhao was willing to propose to him, he would definitely cry too.
Xiang Wu knew too well that Lu Shiyue was a brother's treasure, and she didn't forget to irritate him: "Brother Xiaoyue, smile. Your brother is getting married, and a married brother is like spilled water!"
A group of people burst into laughter. Lu Shiyue's eyes were red as he reached out to grab the phone. "You are really annoying, Wuwu."
Every minute and every second of my memory of that day is perfect.
Yuntan thought, even if one day she forgot everything, she would never forget this day.
Jiang Zhier and Elara had already come to congratulate her on the phone.
"Xiao Tan darling! Isn't it time to congratulate you on your successful proposal?"
"Are there any photos? I want to see them! Did the Chinese captain burst into tears?"
"I declare this the most foolproof proposal ever!"
"Hahahahaha congratulations to Xiao Tan on becoming a beautiful wife!"
Xiang Wu has already sent her the photos and videos he just took.
Yun Tan sat in the car on the way home and selected a few photos to send to the group. He sent them with one hand - the other hand was still tightly held by Lu Wangshan, just showing the two wedding rings touching each other.
Yuntan took another photo of their hands. The light inside the car was not bright, but the wedding rings were still shining.
Xiang Wu’s photos were all very good, and Yun Tan struggled to pick out nine of them to post on WeChat Moments.
One of them is a design drawing of the wedding rings that she drew herself.
The number of likes and comments on WeChat Moments skyrocketed instantly.
Lu Wangshan only saw the design drawing after he got home and Yun Tan reminded him to "check the circle of friends".
The Möbius strip, the coordinates of Beijing and Milan, the time when the relationship was first confirmed, Leo's pattern, the ECG line graph, and the diamonds at both ends of the line.
Lu Wangshan looked at them for a long time, then took off their rings and compared them carefully, afraid of missing any details.
"Did you design this yourself?" His eyes turned red again and his voice was choked.
"Yes, I made this ring myself at Er'er Studio. If you look closely, you might notice it's a little rougher than a brand name wedding ring."
Lu Wangshan didn’t know what to say again. Yun Tan had given him too many surprises today.
His fingertips carefully caressed every inch of the ring. He couldn't let it go, and he put it on carefully.
"Once you put this ring on, you can't take it off." Lu Wangshan hugged her, buried his head in her neck and whispered.
Yun Tan teased him, "Will you not pick them when you exercise?"
"No."
“It will wear out.”
"Then don't exercise, or wear gloves."
Yun Tan was amused by him: "Aren't you exaggerating too much, Lu Wangshan?"
"Why do you still call me Lu Wangshan?"
"Why can't I call you Lu Wangshan now?"
"I should call my husband now."
"Husband is what we call him after we get the marriage certificate." Yun Tan thought about it, felt it, and said, "I think I can't call him that after getting the marriage certificate. It's so corny."
Lu Wangshan pursed his lips and said nothing.
It doesn’t matter. He has many ways to make Yuntan call him husband. After a few times, she will get used to it and it won’t be corny anymore.
His heart was beating a little fast, boom, boom, boom, and the vibration in his chest was particularly obvious.
Even at this moment, he still felt that today was as unreal as a dream. He even pinched himself in the shower to make sure it was not a dream. He had never done such a stupid thing before.
Lu Wangshan didn’t know how many times he had read Yun Tan’s circle of friends, carefully looking at every picture and every detail.
He didn't mind at all that his eyes were red or he had tears in his eyes in the photos. He felt that everyone in the world would envy him because his girlfriend proposed to him.
He saved the photos and posted them on his Moments as they were.
He no longer had the heart to read the congratulations and cheers from his friends. He turned off the lights, and the two of them hurriedly took off their pajamas and hugged each other naked in bed.
Lu Wangshan was particularly clingy today, kissing her endlessly, as if he wanted to kiss every corner of her body.
As the kisses continued to fall down to her lower abdomen, Yun Tan curled up her waist impatiently, but was flattened by Lu Wangshan again.
Hearing the swallowing sound, Yun Tan still closed his eyes in shame, wondering why Lu Wangshan always liked to do this.
He was all under the quilt, his arched back like a mountain peak standing in the darkness, and Yuntan's ankles were held in his palms, bent at an angle that would make people blush.
She seemed to hear Lu Wangshan say something, but it was not obvious because he was buried under the quilt.
Her voice was hoarse: "What did you say?"
He was still pressed tightly against her, so that his lips moved against her skin, and he repeated, "Wife."
Yuntan couldn't bear it anymore and tried to put his knees together, but was stuck in place by another stimulation.
She opened her eyes wide in confusion. "Hmm, what is that?" She bent over, wanting to lift it up to see, but she couldn't muster the energy. "Why, it's cold?"
"It's a ring."
Yuntan's chest was heaving, tears were in his eyes, and his legs were struggling helplessly up and down.
She felt it was so obscene, how could she touch that place with a ring.
"Lu Wangshan, so dirty."
"I just washed it carefully."
“…I mean I’m dirty.”
"How could that be? Xiao Tan is the cleanest." Then, as if to prove his point, he lowered his head and kissed her again.
Lu Wangshan really kept his word. Once you put on this ring, you can't take it off.
Torture her along with the ring.
So annoying.
-
The next day, when Yun Tan woke up, Lu Wangshan was leaning against the head of the bed looking at his phone.
Her voice was still a little hoarse: "What are you looking at?"
Lu Wangshan handed her his phone. He hadn't had time to read the comments on his WeChat Moments yesterday, but now he had received many comments.
Yun Tan chuckled, but before she could say anything, Lu Wangshan held her cheek and kissed her again.
"Um, Lu Wangshan, you haven't brushed your teeth yet!"
“I swiped it.”
"I'm talking about myself!"
"You still smell good even if you don't brush it."
“…”
This conversation reminded Yun Tan of the similarities from last night. Her cheeks began to burn again. She pinched Lu Wangshan's waist and gasped, "Are you a pervert?"
Lu Wangshan raised his eyebrows indifferently at this comment.
"But when are we going to get the marriage certificate?" Yun Tan suddenly asked.
Lu Wangshan paused.
He had already arranged everything for his proposed marriage, but Yun Tan got there first. He really didn't know when they would get the marriage certificate.
Not getting a response, Yuntan turned his head to look at him and found that the man had a thoughtful expression.
He already agreed to my proposal yesterday, so what else is there to think about?!
Yun Tan was furious. He grabbed Lu Wangshan's neck and turned over to sit on him. "Lu Wangshan! Don't tell me you want to go back on your word!"
Lu Wangshan was amused by her, and his laughter escaped intermittently as he was pinched: "I've already put on the ring, how can I regret it?"
"snort."
Why mention the ring at this time?
Yun Tan felt that all the creative ideas he had put so much thought into were ruined by him. Now when he talked about the ring, the first things that came to his mind were some unpresentable images.
With her sitting on Lu Wangshan's waist, his hands involuntarily rested on her waist, and then slid down as if enjoying the taste.
The early morning sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains, and a long slender beam fell on Yun Tan's chest. Lu Wangshan felt that he was fascinated by her again, and he became dizzy again.
It was almost noon when this long and tiring morning exercise ended.
Yun Tan had just woken up and felt sleepy again. While she was still drowsy, Lu Wangshan was prying her eyelids open again.
He just pried her legs apart, and now he's pried her eyelids apart. Why is this guy so annoying?
"What?" Yun Tan glared at him unhappily.
Lu Wangshan lay beside her, his index finger still hanging in front of her eyes. He smiled when he heard her words, bent down and kissed her lips: "Should we go get the marriage certificate after the trip?"
"What? You still want to travel with me to try marriage first?"
Lu Wangshan flicked her forehead with his finger: "What are you talking about? How many times have we traveled together?"
Yun Tan was very tired and didn't think too much about why he insisted on traveling first and then getting the marriage certificate. He just said casually, "Okay, then where should we go for the trip?"
"Italy, how's it going?"
Yun Tan's eyes, which had just been closed, suddenly opened. She tilted her head to look at Lu Wangshan and asked, "How do we get to Italy?"
"I want to go with you again."
He had a surprise prepared for Yuntan in Italy, and he wanted to complete the journey they had not been able to walk together.
