Jiang Che continued slowly, "Before you came into my life, I felt that life was just like this, every day was the same and boring. But after meeting you, I feel that every day has something to look forward to, and life has become colorful. I don't know much about how to date, nor do I know how to please girls, but I am willing to learn for you, and I am happy to do anything for you. So Zhaozhao, will you be my girlfriend?"
He reached out and handed the flowers in his arms to Ye Zhao, looking up at her with bright, loving eyes, waiting quietly for her answer.
Ye Zhao looked at him quietly, a smile appearing on her face. The two stared at each other silently for a while before Ye Zhao nodded and said, "I'm willing."
As she spoke, she accepted the flowers Jiang Che handed her.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Che smiled broadly, stood up from the ground, picked up an exquisitely packaged red velvet box from the side, and slowly opened it in front of Ye Zhao.
Inside was a pearl necklace and a diamond ring. The design was unique, and the ring was quite heavy. Its dazzling appearance made it look extremely expensive, and you could tell at a glance that it cost a lot of money.
Jiang Che looked at Ye Zhao's stunned expression and slowly said, "Actually, I prepared the necklace and ring a long time ago, but I was afraid you had other concerns, so I didn't find an opportunity. Do you like them?"
Both gifts were to Ye Zhao's liking, and even as a joke, she couldn't bring herself to say she didn't like them.
Jiang Che had obviously noticed this as well, and before Ye Zhao could speak, he picked up the necklace and said, "I'll put it on you."
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Let's forget it, this outfit doesn't suit us either."
Jiang Che then lowered his hand with some regret and picked up the ring instead.
Ye Zhao was much more relaxed than before, and seeing this, she couldn't help but tease, "Why is there a ring? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were proposing."
Jiang Che laughed and said, "Can't you wear a ring when you're in love? I'm going to make you wear one."
Ye Zhao laughed at his arrogant and smug look, and extended a hand to him. Jiang Che's smile and smugness widened upon seeing this.
As Ye Zhao watched Jiang Che lower his head and earnestly put the ring on her finger, a strange feeling welled up in her heart again—soft, sweet, and tender.
After Jiang Che put the ring on Ye Zhao's finger, he looked up and found her looking at him with a faint smile on her face. His heart softened even more. He looked at Ye Zhao's rosy lips and slowly lowered his head...
Ye Zhao felt that Jiang Che's breath had a refreshing quality that was both reassuring and intoxicating.
Their breaths grew rapid as their bodies intertwined. Jiang Che was the first to move his lips away, holding Ye Zhao tightly in his arms, his breathing quick and shallow, his neck and ears already flushed red.
Ye Zhao's breathing was also a little rapid, her eyes were misty, and her rosy lips were still wet, making her look even more like someone you wanted to bully.
Jiang Che paused for a moment, then lowered his head to wipe her lips. Seeing her like this, his gaze deepened. He didn't dare look at her any longer and held Ye Zhao for a while before letting go of her.
"Are you hungry? Shall we go get something to eat?"
Ye Zhao had just woken up from a nap and was indeed a little hungry, so Jiang Che took her out to eat. Only then did Ye Zhao realize that he had also prepared a candlelight dinner.
She didn't expect that Jiang Che, who said he didn't understand, actually knew it!
After the two finished dinner, it was already quite late, so Jiang Che took Ye Zhao back to her hotel.
The car stopped outside the hotel. Ye Zhao unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out when Jiang Che suddenly moved closer to her and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek.
Ye Zhao turned to look at him, but he didn't back away. Instead, he leaned in and kissed the corner of her lips while they were still in that position. Then he whispered to Ye Zhao, "Zhao Zhao, I'm so happy."
Jiang Che's eyes were sparkling, filled with love and joy.
Seeing this, Ye Zhao's heart softened terribly. She reached out and touched his face, saying, "I'm happy too."
The two remained silent, their gazes locked on each other, the atmosphere gradually rising as they drew closer. But before they could do anything, Ye Zhao's phone suddenly rang, interrupting their intimate moment.
Ye Zhao knew it was Yuan Bao calling before she even took out her phone, and when she picked it up, it was indeed him.
"Hey, baby."
"Mom, I miss you so much..." Yuanbao's soft, slightly aggrieved voice came from the phone, melting Ye Zhao's heart.
"Be a good baby, Mommy will be back in a couple of days, okay?"
"But Yuanbao misses his mother so much..."
Jiang Che maintained a smile throughout the conversation between the mother and son.
Ye Zhao comforted Yuanbao for a while before hanging up the phone. After hanging up, she seemed a little upset. Seeing this, Jiang Che said slowly, "If you miss him, go see him tomorrow. I'll take care of things here."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhao looked up at him, but before she could say anything, Jiang Che said again, "Don't say thank you. You're my girlfriend, so this is what I should do. It's just that I might be busy tomorrow, so I won't be able to take you home."
His voice was clear and gentle, yet inexplicably reassuring.
Ye Zhao couldn't quite describe how she felt at that moment, but looking at Jiang Che, she felt incredibly at ease, yet also a long-lost flutter of excitement.
Jiang Che looked at her like this, reached out and tidied her hair at her temples, and said gently, "But when you go and keep Yuanbao company, don't forget to call me, okay? I'll miss you if I can't see you."
Ye Zhao remained outwardly calm, but her heart was pounding wildly. Who was it that just told her they couldn't do it? They were clearly super good at it!
Looking at him like this, Ye Zhao felt incredibly tender and said gently, "Okay, I'll go spend two days with Yuanbao and then come back. I'll call you too."
After all, Ye Feng was still in the hospital, and she couldn't just wash her hands of things and leave everything to Jiang Che. They were just dating, not married.
Jiang Che was finally satisfied, and his eyes sparkled as he smiled.
The two talked for a while longer before Jiang Che reluctantly saw Ye Zhao upstairs.
When Ye Zhao entered, she glanced at his figure. In the dark night, she actually felt that Jiang Che looked a little aggrieved.
Without hesitation, Ye Zhao went to the hospital the next morning and then took a taxi directly to the airport. She hadn't seen her child for over ten days and missed him terribly.
Before boarding the plane, she called Jiang Che, and the call was answered after only two rings.
"Are we boarding the plane?" Jiang Che's clear voice came through.
"Um."
"Be careful, call me when you arrive."
"Okay." A smile unconsciously appeared on Ye Zhao's face.
"And remember to think of me."
