Chapter 76 Extra 2 Before Marriage
After dinner, Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi leaned on the bed and watched the first episode of the third season of "Romance to You" on the projector.
Perhaps because the investor's son was in jail, the funds for this season's recording were obviously very tight, so the production team simply threw the ten guests onto a deserted island and left them there. If you didn't know, you might think it was some kind of survival game.
However, Cheng Luanxin likes the guests invited this season very much. One of them is an e-sports player she admires very much, and the other is the exclusive designer of a clothing brand she likes very much. The two of them happen to be A and O. In the first episode, there was no interaction between the two, but Cheng Luanxin was already shipping them, sending barrages of comments.
Song Qiuchi couldn't understand: "How is this sweet? Why didn't I see it?"
Cheng Luanxin: "It's so sweet! Can't you see the sparks that fly when their eyes meet?"
Song Qiuchi: "I can't see it."
Cheng Luanxin: "Alas, you still lack the eyes to discover love and beauty."
Song Qiuchi: "It's obviously you who's forcing them to be this couple."
Cheng Luanxin: "Why am I the only one who's doing it? Everyone on the comment board is clearly doing it. Wait, look, it's coming, did you see it? Fang Yuxing and Dai Nuan are getting married right there!"
Song Qiuchi was helpless: "I can't stand you CP fans. But Cheng Luanxin, when are you going to marry me?"
Cheng Luanxin blushed and began to talk about other things: "Has the package that arrived today not been opened yet? It looks like the knitted suspenders I bought. I'll open it and see if it fits me..."
Seeing her about to get out of bed and flee the scene, Song Qiuchi quickly pulled her back into his arms: "Don't run away so quickly, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Cheng Luanxin couldn't break free, so she looked up at Song Qiuchi pitifully: "Let's talk about it later..."
Song Qiuchi narrowed his eyes. "How long is 'later'? Tomorrow, next year, next life?"
"It won't take that long..." Cheng Luanxin muttered quietly. But it was undeniable that she had indeed put off getting married for quite some time. From last year to this year, from winter to summer, it still hadn't been put on the agenda.
If you ask if there's been any progress in the past six months, there has definitely been. After a long period of getting along, the two have become more in tune with each other, and their lifestyles are gradually becoming more similar. They even recently met with their parents.
The only thing is that the wedding date has not been decided yet.
During this period, Song Qiuchi proposed marriage more than once, but she fooled him every time.
However, judging by the situation today, it seems that it is not so easy to get away with it.
Song Qiuchi pretended to pinch the delicate flesh on the back of Cheng Luanxin's neck: "Cheng Luanxin, what are you still hesitating about? Weren't you very straightforward when you agreed?"
"Don't touch my glands in broad daylight!" Cheng Luanxin resisted frantically, "I'm just not ready yet..."
Not prepared.
Song Qiuchi frowned slightly.
What a familiar rhetoric. Every rejection is due to "not being prepared."
I was not prepared before falling in love; I was not prepared before temporary marking; I was not prepared before living together.
She knew Cheng Luanxin's character very well. If she was not pushed, she could prepare indefinitely.
But this time it's marriage.
If possible, Song Qiuchi hopes that she can be fully prepared before entering into marriage with him, instead of relying on coercion and inducement to force her into marriage as he did before.
She subconsciously let go of her hand.
Cheng Luanxin took the opportunity to escape: "I'm going to try on the sling. I'll show you if it looks good later!"
Song Qiuchi nodded and said nothing more.
Two months later.
It's the anniversary of the start of filming for the second season of "Romance to You." The production team invited all the guests from the second season to record a special episode. The guests were invited to the studio to watch the unreleased footage of the show and share their recent experiences.
On the day of the show's taping, only eight people showed up. Du Zhiruo was living abroad and couldn't return. Bian Ning, on the other hand, said she was traveling in the mountains taking photos and couldn't make time.
However, the guests all knew that Bian Ning did not come to the show because she broke up peacefully with Liang Shengxia.
No one expected that among all the guests, the first to get together were Zhuang Mingchu and He Ran. The two received their marriage certificate in May this year and will hold their wedding soon.
While everyone was blessing Zhuang Mingchu and He Ran, they also did not forget to tease Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi. They were obviously the fastest progressing CP back then, but now they have been left behind.
Su Ling pretended to be angry: "Didn't you agree to ask me to be the bridesmaid at the wedding? I was dreaming of wearing that bridesmaid dress, but now it's not my turn."
Cheng Luanxin had no choice but to apologize: "When we get married, I'll pick you a more beautiful one, okay?"
Hearing this, Song Qiuchi looked at Cheng Luanxin deeply.
Cheng Luan felt a little uncomfortable and asked awkwardly, "What are you looking at me doing..."
Song Qiuchi retracted his gaze: "Nothing."
Cheng Luanxin felt something was strange. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that Song Qiuchi hadn't mentioned marriage to her for a long time, and her heart skipped a beat.
Song Qiuchi had brought it up very frequently before, and he could find any opportunity to turn any topic to marriage.
But in the past two months...I really haven't mentioned this matter.
Doesn’t Song Qiuchi want to marry her anymore?
Could it be that... Song Qiuchi no longer likes her?
Cheng Luan felt a little flustered. For the first time, she hated herself for being so slow. They lived together every day, but she didn't notice the changes in Song Qiuchi.
She became alert and decided to pay attention to the changes in Song Qiuchi's attitude towards her from today on.
Another two weeks passed.
It had only been two weeks, but Cheng Luanxin felt as if two years had passed, and she felt extremely depressed.
Song Qiuchi really doesn't like her as much as before!
In these two weeks, not to mention that Song Qiuchi never mentioned marriage once, but his attitude towards her was extremely perfunctory!
For example, Song Qiuchi used to considerately ask her what she wanted for breakfast, but now she can only eat whatever is available at home!
For example, Song Qiuchi used to ask her to put down her cell phone and go to bed on time at twelve o'clock, but now he doesn't care about her anymore!
Cheng Luanxin just discovered that she had a bit of a M temperament. She felt a little uncomfortable because Song Qiuchi didn't care about her.
She lost her patience and went to discuss it with Xia Wenwen.
Xia Wenwen never understood what was going on with their love life. They were originally sworn enemies, but suddenly one day they became good friends who appreciated each other for many years. They participated in a dating show, broke up and got back together, and finally lived together peacefully for more than half a year. This was beyond her understanding.
Cheng Luanxin finished her account of her current situation with a sorrowful look on her face, and then said viciously, "That bastard Song Qiuchi must not love me anymore. I'm not sad. I want to find someone better than her!"
Xia Wenwen agreed with her: "Yes, we can't keep someone like this who abandons us after having sex with her. Let's find someone better than her!"
Unexpectedly, Cheng Luanxin's face changed: "Why are you like this? Don't you know that you should persuade people to reconcile instead of breaking up? Song Qiuchi didn't provoke you, why are you scolding her with me?"
Xia Wenwen: “???”
Do you know that I am scolding her along with you?
Xia Wenwen was puzzled. "You're clearly deeply in love, so why didn't you marry her before?"
Cheng Luan pouted and said, "Is it not okay for me to be afraid of marriage?"
Xia Wenwen: "Is there anything else in this world that you are afraid of?"
Cheng Luanxin hesitated, "If it were you, you would know that anyone who spends too much time with someone like Song Qiuchi will feel inferior. Although she has many shortcomings, she is really good to me. So good that it makes you feel insecure and doubt whether you deserve such kindness."
Xia Wenwen knew that Cheng Luanxin's family background was rather special and that she was abandoned by her parents since childhood. Although she looked carefree, she was actually very sensitive, so it was understandable that she was worried about gains and losses.
Cheng Luanxin continued, "I just feel that it's unbelievable that I didn't do anything, but I got someone who treats me so well. Rather than having him and then losing him, it's better to keep a certain distance from the beginning, so that I won't be sad when I lose him."
After thinking for a while, she added, "But now I'm a little sad."
Xia Wenwen didn't know how to persuade her: "I can't say anything about what's going on between you two...but like you said, you feel like you haven't done anything and your virtue is unworthy of your position, so why don't you take the initiative and propose to Song Qiuchi?"
Cheng Luanxin's face was filled with horror: "How is this possible? It's impossible. How can I propose to Song Qiuchi? I can't do it!"
Xia Wenwen looked disgusted: "If I were Song Qiuchi, I wouldn't bother with you either."
Cheng Luan returned home worriedly, but Song Qiuchi had not yet finished get off work.
She sat at the dining table, staring blankly at the half-eaten pancake she had eaten that morning.
The desk was not tidied up and was a mess.
It's natural that Song Qiuchi doesn't like it.
Xia Wenwen's words echoed in my mind: "If I were Song Qiuchi, I wouldn't bother with you."
Thinking of this, Cheng Luanxin could no longer sit still. She jumped up from her chair, washed the dishes first, and then wiped the table.
After living together with Song Qiuchi, Song Qiuchi was basically the one who cooked the meals. She only cooked a few times and made the kitchen a mess.
How about trying to make dinner?
She rummaged through the refrigerator for ingredients and found that there were many things that Song Qiuchi couldn't eat, and they were bought entirely for her.
Cheng Luanxin made simple cabbage, tofu and vermicelli casserole and tomato soup according to the cooking app. Although it didn't look as good as the pictures on the Internet, it tasted good.
Sitting at the dining table, she still felt something was missing, so she went to the yard, cut a few rose branches, and put them in the small vase on the dining table.
A candlelight dinner requires candlelight. Cheng Luanxin turned off the lights, lit a scented candle, and watched her shadow swaying on the wall. It was indeed a little romantic.
Let's play some more music. Cheng Luanxin turned on the CD player and played a classic blues, thinking that she had been pretentious enough.
After doing all this, Cheng Luanxin didn't know what else she could do.
Just then, the sound of fingerprint unlocking was heard outside the door.
Song Qiuchi is back.
Cheng Luanxin immediately held her breath and sat upright at the dining table.
Song Qiuchi frowned and glanced around the room suspiciously: "What's going on? Why is it so grand all of a sudden?"
Cheng Luanxin stood up and said nervously, "This is to repay you for taking care of me for so long. I prepared it specially for you."
"Repay me for taking care of you for so long?" Song Qiuchi teased her, "Why, you don't want me to take care of you anymore?"
Cheng Luan's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and her voice changed nervously: "Of course not, it's a staged feedback."
"Phase feedback?" Song Qiuchi found it funny and asked while taking off his clothes, "What stage have we passed?"
Cheng Luanxin heard a voice in her head shouting, "If not now, when?" But at the same time, another voice screamed, "No! You can't propose! It's too shameful! How can I face Song Qiuchi in the future?"
She hummed like a mosquito: "Pre-marital stage."
Song Qiuchi was stunned and paused, suspecting that he had misheard: "What did you say?"
Cheng Luanxin's voice was a little louder: "Premarital stage."
Song Qiuchi stared at her straightly: "Say it again?"
Cheng Luanxin was simply shameless: "I've said it several times, can't you hear clearly? Before marriage, Song Qiuchi, are you not planning to marry me?"
Song Qiuchi held his forehead and sat at the dining table: "Wait for me, are you urging me to marry you?"
Cheng Luanxin's face flushed. "Otherwise, you haven't mentioned marriage to me for several months. I thought you didn't plan to marry me!"
Song Qiuchi lowered his eyes and laughed muffledly: "I just wanted to give you a little more time to prepare. I didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly."
Cheng Luanxin pouted: "Do I dare to prepare again? Look at you, now you don't ask me what I want to eat for breakfast, and you don't urge me to sleep at night. If I don't marry you, will you still care about me?"
Song Qiuchi laughed: "What kind of logic is this? I didn't ask you what you wanted for breakfast because I already knew your food preferences. I didn't urge you to go to bed because I saw you were busy with work recently and didn't want to disturb you. How can I just ignore you?"
Cheng Luanxin rushed over and said, "I don't care, you have to control me! Marry me, do you hear me?"
Song Qiuchi hugged her and let her sit on his lap: "Why are you ready all of a sudden?"
Cheng Luanxin buried her head in her chest and said vaguely, "I'm afraid of losing you if I don't get married, and I'm also afraid of losing you if I get married. Do you understand?"
Song Qiuchi really didn't understand the underlying logic, so he just hugged her tighter: "I don't understand, but I'm also afraid of losing you."
