They came to the bank of Ziyan Lake.

The curfew in the capital city had been lifted several years ago, and as night fell, there were not many people around Ziyan Lake.

Before getting off the carriage, Wenren Yuebai asked Qiao Youyou to close her eyes and wait for a moment.

Qiao Youyou closed her eyes and let Wenren Yuebai help her get off the carriage and stop at a place.

"Wait for me." Wenren Yuebai said softly.

Qiao Youyou nodded, having roughly guessed what Wenren Yuebai was going to do.

There was a brief silence around him, but Qiao Youyou's mouth was almost curled up.

She waited and waited, but there was still no movement around her.

She couldn't help herself and wanted to open her eyes, but she was afraid of ruining the atmosphere of surprise.

Finally, she raised her hands to cover her eyes, only slightly opening her left eye through the gaps between her fingers.

Just watch a little, just a little bit.

"Youyou." Just at this moment, Wenren Yuebai's voice sounded.

Qiao Youyou put down her hand, looked in the direction of the sound, and stood there in surprise.

There were hundreds of lotus lanterns floating on the lake, like thousands of lights, shining like stars.

Among the stars, Wenren Yuebai, dressed in white, tall and graceful, was rowing a small boat slowly towards her.

The ice and snow in his eyes melted away, and with a faint smile, he stretched out his hand to Qiao Youyou.

Qiao Youyou took his hand and jumped into the boat.

Wenren Yuebai, who was much taller than her, was paddling the boat beside her, slowly sailing towards the center of the lake.

The sky, the earth and the lake were as dark as ink. Endless lanterns floated on the waves. The two seemed to be isolated from the world and in the starry sky.

Qiao Youyou was shocked by the beautiful scenery before her, but when she came to her senses, she found that Wenren Yuebai, who was standing next to her, was gone.

She turned around subconsciously, only to see Wenren Yuebai standing behind her, looking at her deeply, his eyes reflecting the brilliance of the lanterns.

Before Qiao Youyou could speak, the figure suddenly shortened, knelt on one knee, and took out the ring that he had prepared for a long time.

"You'er, with the heaven and earth as witnesses and the stars and the moon as matchmakers, are you... willing to marry me?"

Qiao Youyou knew that he had prepared a ring, but she never thought that he would actually kneel down on one knee to propose to her. She was stunned for a moment, with all kinds of emotions surging in her heart.

You have to know that in this era, even though the status of women has changed a long time ago, people still say "there is gold under a man's knees", and have never heard of a woman kneeling down to propose marriage.

He is actually willing to...

Could it be that the reason why he was so persistent in curing his legs before proposing to her was because of this?

Qiao Youyou's heart ached and she quickly leaned over and hugged him.

"I do."

Wenren Yuebai carefully put the ring on her finger.

The two of them sat quietly at the bow, admiring the endless brilliant night scenery. Qiao Youyou leaned her head on Wenren Yuebai's shoulder.

"Why did you think of proposing in this way?" She couldn't help asking, stroking the ring that looked very modern in style.

Wenren Yuebai said that it was Zhao Sicheng who told him.

"You told me that you, Miss Zhu, and those friends all came from the same place.

That day I asked Lord Zhao about this matter, and he said that in your hometown, there is a custom for men to kneel on one knee to propose marriage.

I thought that you must be homesick after being here for so long, so I asked Lord Zhao for more advice.

He also told me the style of the ring."

"I see." Qiao Youyou smiled and kissed him on the face, feeling that this moment was extremely beautiful.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, the two stared at each other, and involuntarily moved closer and closer.

"You'er, you..." Wenren Yuebai looked at Qiao Youyou's increasingly malicious gaze and couldn't help swallowing.
