Both of them had wet pants and shoes, so they went home to change their clothes before going to Hua's house.

Before going, Shi Xi even put on makeup again to cover up her red eyes.

Hua Family Manor.

The group was in the living room, and the atmosphere was heavy.

Hua Wenying has stopped crying, but you can tell she's forcing a smile.

Grandpa Hua was sitting in the main seat. When he saw Shi Xi come in, he sighed.

“Grandpa.” Shi Xi straightened up.

"Grandpa is apologizing to you." Grandpa Hua's tone was heavy and sorrowful. "If I hadn't been so heartless as to break up Wen Yin and then insisted on abandoning you, you wouldn't have had to wait so many years to reunite."

As Hua Wenying listened, tears welled up in her eyes again.

"I was young and arrogant, unwilling to bow my head, and insisted on making some achievements before coming back," Tao Boli said apologetically. "I didn't expect it to take so long."

"It's all in the past." Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief, took Xie Yunzhou's hand, and boasted to everyone, "Xie Yunzhou proposed to me!"

The five-carat blue diamond was so dazzling that it made everyone unable to open their eyes or look away.

Hua Xuanhe, who was already out of control, was the first to exclaim in surprise, "When?!"

“An hour ago.” Shi Xi’s eyes curved into a smile. “The wedding date hasn’t been set yet, but we can find a time to get engaged first.”

"Okay, Mom will definitely pick a great day for you." Hua Wenying was finally relieved to see Shi Xi smile.

She had never dared to say it, for fear that Shi Xi would resent or hate her.

Shi Xi came up and hugged Hua Wenying, saying softly, "You've suffered so much, you must be happy in the future!"

Hua Wenying endured more hardship than they did.

Thinking of what she had said earlier, Shi Xi added, "I'm sorry, I was just saying that in anger this morning, please don't be angry."

Hua Wenying touched Shi Xi's face. "How could I be angry with you? I love you so much."

Shi Xi responded softly.

Let bygones be bygones.

Shi Xi didn't intend to show off her diamond ring, but she didn't expect that the scene at the beach would be photographed.

He wasn't a paparazzi; he was simply a photographer who went to capture the sunrise.

The photographer was originally shooting the sunrise when he saw a girl walk by, so he took a few pictures of her back.

He didn't recognize Shi Xi yet.

It wasn't until Xie Yunzhou walked over that the photographer saw Shi Xi's profile and recognized her.

When the proposal was captured on camera, the photographer watched the drama unfold while observing what would happen next.

He posted these photos online for everyone to enjoy without much editing.

#ShiXi was proposed to#

[Holy crap, what movie plot is this? Sister Xi is so beautiful!]

[Ahhh, they're such a perfect match! Is this really not a photoshoot? Even when Mr. Xie is kneeling on the ground, he looks so handsome!]

[Is this a confirmed wedding?! Oh, the loss of my first love!]

The topic became the number one trending topic.

Shi Xi received inquiries from various parties and did not hide anything.

He directly announced it on Weibo.

@Shixi: "I have walked across many bridges and seen many clouds, but I have only loved one person at the prime of their life."

Then they directly used the photo of the two embracing from the set of photos taken by the photographer.

[Borrowing]

In her Weibo reply, Shi Xi added a separate selfie.

Her hand, adorned with a diamond ring, rested on her face; the diamond sparkled, and her beauty was captivating.

[May your love be as beautiful as a full moon and as joyous as the last of the 10 billion yuan box office hit! Congratulations to actress Shi Xixi for achieving success in both her career and love life!]

[A stream flows under the bridge; having seen many clouds, is Xixi subtly showing off their love?!]

[Haha, this is a quote from Shen Congwen, along with the line "has drunk many kinds of wine." It's confirmed that Xixi can't drink alcohol.]

[Be careful upstairs, Shi Xixi might not give you wedding candy.]
