Chapter 151 Xie Peizhou's Proposal
Xie Peizhou was stunned for a moment, then felt Wen Ci's stiff body and realized that she had not recovered her memory.
A faint sense of loss passed through my heart.
The excitement in his eyes gradually calmed down. He looked at her and deliberately asked, "Why don't you want me to marry Zhou Tianjiao?"
"I..." Wen Ci's heart was suddenly pinched, and her heartbeat became irregular and faster.
Xie Peizhou: "Although you haven't recovered your memory, you've fallen in love with me again, right?"
"You don't want me to marry another woman because you love me, right, Aci?"
Faced with Xie Peizhou's straightforward questioning, Wen Ci's ears felt hot and she avoided his domineering and inquiring gaze.
"You didn't say anything, it seems I was wrong."
Seeing her silence, Xie Peizhou let out a wry smile, loosened his grip on her hand, took a step back, and put some distance between them. "Okay, Ah Ci... since you don't like me, I can't force you to stay by my side. Zhou Tianjiao and I were engaged since childhood. If you really can't fall in love with me, I'll consider it."
Xie Peizhou turned around and walked towards the bedroom door.
"Don't leave!"
The moment he turned around, a pair of small hands hugged his arms.
Xie Peizhou stood still, remaining silent, pursing his lips and pressing the corners of his lips, trying hard to control the upward curve.
Wen Ci hugged his hand, her heart beating wildly, as if if she didn't hold Xie Peizhou now, Xie Peizhou would become someone else's husband.
She had no previous memories, and based on just these two months of getting along, she wasn't sure if she had fallen in love with Xie Peizhou, but at that moment, she was very clear that she didn't want Xie Peizhou and Zhou Tianjiao to marry.
"I...even though I haven't recovered my memory, I kind of like you. So, do you still want to marry Zhou Tianjiao?"
"real?"
Xie Peizhou turned around, his eyes as dark as ink, trying to hide the turmoil in his heart with calmness.
Wen Ci blushed as she looked at his calm, distrustful expression. She mustered up the courage to nod, "Well, Xie Peizhou, I like you and don't want you to marry another woman..."
Before she finished speaking, the man who had always been calm in the face of adversity hugged her, raised the corners of his mouth, bent down and kissed her hair, "Aci, I love you too. How could I leave you and marry another woman?"
Wen Ci felt his hot breath and domineering strength, and her heartbeat was like a bean falling to the ground, crackling and beating wildly. She realized belatedly that something was wrong, and she pressed her palm against his strong chest and pulled out of his embrace.
She raised her little face and asked, "What do you mean? You just said that if I don't like you, you will be with Zhou... umm--"
Before she could finish her words, she was invaded by the man's domineering and passionate kiss.
Xie Peizhou held the back of Wen Ci's head and gently pressed her down on the soft bed.
The man's hot breath sprayed all over Wenci's delicate skin.
Ever since Wen Ci lost her memory in a car accident, Xie Peizhou never kissed her when she was awake. At most, he would greedily steal a kiss from her in the dark after she fell asleep.
"Don't hide from me."
Wen Ci originally dodged instinctively out of shyness, but the man's low, seductive voice reached her ears, and it was like an electric current flowing from her spine through her whole body.
Wen Ci seemed to be possessed by a poison and stopped dodging. She even hooked her arms around the back of his neck under his guidance and clung to him tightly. The loose long sleeves of her pajamas sat down under gravity and piled up at her upper arms, revealing two white and slender arms.
Xie Peizhou gently wrapped his big hands around her arms and kissed them one by one with his lips filled with desire and love.
Finally, he placed the kiss on her lips again, trying to go deeper, "Aci, is it okay?"
Wen Ci was sweating from the heat, and her breath was filled with the strong smell of perfume. She held her breath, frowned and shook her head.
The man froze.
Although it was very uncomfortable, he was unwilling to go against Wen Ci's wishes and just thought that she was not ready yet.
Take a deep breath and suppress the primitive desires of your body.
Seeing this, Wen Ci curled her fingers and gently grasped the collar of her shirt, blushing and whispering, "The perfume on you stinks."
Xie Peizhou was stunned. He lowered his head, pulled his shirt and smelled it, frowning. It was a strong scent of rose essential oil.
"Xie Yiyi sprayed it when I came back at night."
"Aci, how about we go to the bathroom and take a shower together?"
This time, Xie Peizhou did not give Wen Ci a chance to refuse. He put his arms around her waist and carried her towards the bathroom.
Xie Peizhou knew in his heart that when Xie Yiyi and Lu Bingchen went to pick up Wen Ci today, they must have said something to Wen Ci that caused her to misunderstand.
But right now, there are more important things to do than explain.
…
The next morning, Wen Ci was woken up by someone kissing her from time to time.
As soon as I opened my sleepy eyes, I saw a magnified handsome face of someone.
Before Wen Ci could react, her breath was violently taken away.
"You...why are you still in bed?"
Xie Peizhou hugged her from behind, revealing his strong shoulders and arms. Both of them were naked and covered with a thin pink blanket.
Xie Peizhou turned her chin and kissed her again, with a hint of threat in his low voice, "Aci, you are not going to wake up and not recognize me, are you?"
Wen Ci had the illusion that she was going to suffocate from his kiss, so she pushed him away and avoided his kiss.
She stretched out her white arm and touched the phone on the bedside table. Seeing that it was already ten o'clock, she pushed the phone in front of him and said with a red face: "Don't make trouble. What I mean is, it's already ten o'clock, why haven't you gone to work yet?"
Xie Peizhou smiled thinly and took the phone, "Today is Saturday."
Only then did Wen Ci react.
But usually, Xie Peizhou would not stay in bed until ten o'clock even on weekends.
Xie Peizhou kissed her for a while longer, but felt that something bad was going to happen if he continued. He loosened his grip a little, turned her face, and explained to her face to face, "Aci, Zhou Tianjiao and I were indeed engaged when we were very young, verbally by our elders."
Wen Ci's breathing tightened slightly. "Then, what next?"
Xie Peizhou smiled: "But we said it a long time ago, it doesn't count. And before my father died, he might have already decided that you were his daughter-in-law."
Wen Ci had no recollection of what happened before the accident and asked in confusion, "Why?"
"Because he accepted Nian Nian, before he died, he knew that Nian Nian was my biological daughter, and he gave all the inheritance that was originally intended for my first child to Nian Nian. Before he died, he also kept telling me that he would take good care of me for the rest of my life and never let me suffer any injustice. Perhaps at that time, he was hinting to me that Nian Nian was my child."
"Zhou Tianjiao and I are innocent. Our relationship is simply a partnership. Zhou Tianjiao couldn't bear the inheritance left to her by Old Master Zhou, so she reached a cooperation with me. The only person I love in my heart and the only one I want to marry has always been you, Wen Ci."
Wen Ci's heart beat faster, and she didn't avoid Xie Peizhou's affectionate and sincere black eyes, and bravely confessed, "Xie Peizhou, I like you too."
Xie Peizhou's heart softened, and he was so happy that he almost didn't dare to breathe hard. "Aci, then can I put my proposal plan back on the agenda?"
"Um……"
Soon, the two of them were kissing each other.
The result was that Aunt Zhou prepared lunch downstairs at twelve o'clock, and the two of them went downstairs to eat hungry.
In the afternoon, the weather was very good. Wen Niannian pestered Wen Ci and said she wanted to play badminton.
Wen Ci looked at her daughter's eager eyes and couldn't say no.
But after a few rounds, his waist and hands were sore and he was exhausted.
Seeing this, Xie Peizhou stepped forward and took the badminton racket from Wen Ci's hand, "Niannian, Mommy is tired, Daddy will play with you for a while."
"Okay, then Mommy will watch us fight."
"Yeah, okay."
Wen Ci agreed and sat on a recliner nearby, eating the fruit Aunt Zhou had washed and prepared in advance, watching the father and daughter playing badminton back and forth in the yard.
There was a gentle breeze, and in the yard there was not only Nian Nian's joyful laughter, Xie Peizhou's gentle and patient encouragement, but also the chirping of birds in the treetops.
At this moment, although Wen Ci still couldn't remember her previous memories, this scene made her feel extremely calm, warm and happy.
She picked up the mobile phone on the table and took a picture of the happy memory of the father and daughter.
-
Wenci's holiday is only three days.
Perhaps because she was in love, Wen Ci never felt that three days or 72 hours had passed so quickly.
On the third night, Lu Bingchen and Xie Yiyi invited everyone to dinner to apologize to Wen Ci.
Lu Bingchen held up the white wine and said with an apologetic smile, "Xiaoci, I'm sorry. Yiyi and I lied to you that day. In fact, Peizhou and Zhou Tianjiao were just a child marriage that was a joke between the previous generation. There was no intention of marriage at all. I just wanted to make you jealous and let you feel the love in my heart for Peizhou. Although it was good intentions, I still lied to you. I apologize."
Xie Yiyi also said sincerely, "Xiao Ci, I'm sorry. I promise I will never help the evildoers and deceive you again, okay? Please forgive me this time, please~"
Wen Ci picked up the wine glass and said, "Alright, I know you all love me, our friendship is deep, let's drink it in one gulp!"
The meal went very smoothly and everyone drank quite a bit of wine.
Lu Bingchen drunkenly watched Xie Yiyi teasing Wen Niannian, tilted his head and smiled, thinking that it wouldn't be long before he could see her wearing a wedding dress for him.
It must be beautiful, very beautiful.
After the short vacation, Wen Ci joined the crew again.
According to the schedule, the filming period in Hengdian was one and a half months. In order to complete the work with high quality and efficiency, the crew was not allowed to leave Hengdian during the filming.
As a director, Wen Ci naturally has to take the lead. She is prepared not to meet Xie Peizhou and Wen Niannian for 45 days.
But I didn't expect that Mr. Xie, who is always busy with his work, would have the leisure to visit the crew every one or two days. Although he is sometimes busy with work and can only watch Wen Ci work from afar, Xie Peizhou enjoys doing this.
In mid-June, the crew of Wen Ci successfully completed filming.
After having the wrap-up banquet with the staff and actors, Wen Ci gave herself a seven-day vacation.
At Xie Yiyi's invitation, the two flew to Mauritius the next day to experience the leisurely romance of the blue sky, white clouds, sea and seagulls.
It's rare that Xie Peizhou didn't have time to join us on this trip. He said that the company had a big project and he couldn't get away for the time being.
Wen Niannian is going to kindergarten.
So, this trip only lasted two days for Wen Ci and Xie Yiyi.
They landed in Mauritius at noon local time. After a long journey, the two had dinner at the hotel and then slept comfortably in the hotel for the whole afternoon.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Wen Ci was woken up by Xie Yiyi, who threw her a fairy-like suspender skirt and said with a smile: "Xiao Ci, change your clothes, let's go out for a walk."
Wen Ci got up from the bed and put on a skirt. It was a very beautiful backless style that made her skin look whiter than snow and her butterfly bones on her back look lifelike.
On vacation with my bestie, the main focus is beauty.
An hour later, the two of them walked out very elegantly and beautifully.
As soon as you go out, you can see the endless sea. The sea at night is not as blue and sparkling as it is during the day, but the gentle sea breeze, the healing sound of the waves, and the lighthouse standing in the distance that continues to shine, all have a different kind of romance.
It is the peak tourist season in Mauritius, and there are many tourists from all over the world on the beach.
"Xiao Ci, there are so many people in front." Xie Yiyi pointed to a place where people gathered in front.
Wen Ci looked in the direction of her finger and it felt like a party venue. There was a grand bonfire and it was decorated with many bright and shining colorful lights. It was very lively.
Xie Yiyi pulled her forward and said, "Come on, let's go take a look."
Since the Chinese are already here and it’s so lively, Wen Ci thought it would be nice to take a look.
As we got closer, we could vaguely hear some tourists talking, including some of our compatriots.
"It seems like a marriage proposal..."
"It's so romantic. The guy proposing is so handsome, holding red roses. But I don't see the girl being proposed to."
"Oh my god, if she doesn't agree, I will. That guy is so handsome!"
Wen Ci was being held by Xie Yiyi's hand, and looked over curiously. There were several young and beautiful Chinese girls.
Is he so handsome?
In her impression, she had never seen a man with a face more handsome than Xie Peizhou's.
For a moment, Wen Ci felt a strong curiosity in her heart. She really wanted to see with her own eyes the appearance of the man who proposed to her. Was he really that handsome? Could he be more handsome than Xie Peizhou?
She was so focused that she didn't notice that Xie Yiyi was leading her forward. The people around them consciously made way for her and looked at her with envy and blessing in a friendly way.
Finally, in front of a huge heart made of flower petals and candles, she saw the man who proposed to her and made several Chinese girls extremely excited.
Xie Yiyi let go of her hand without knowing when.
Wen Ci stood alone in the middle of the crowd, looking at Xie Peizhou opposite her, who was wearing a white shirt, holding a large bouquet of red roses, with affectionate and gentle eyes.
Suddenly, a feeling of emotion welled up in my heart.
She covered her mouth, tears welling in her eyes.
On the opposite side, Xie Peizhou's eyes also turned red when he saw Wen Ci.
Scenes of them getting to know each other and falling in love emerged in my mind.
When they were very young, he helped her pick up a kite from the treetop in the back garden of the Wen family, and she had a bright smile on her face; then on that cold and rainy night, he climbed the mountain with difficulty and took the cold girl from Wen Zhenghua's arms, and she snuggled in his arms shivering.
Then there are the scenes of the two of them getting along at the Xie family...
Wen Ci in her teenage years was timid, kind, and very dependent on him because she lived under someone else's roof;
Later, the girl fell in love for the first time. Love gave her infinite courage and she began to throw herself at him again and again like a moth to a flame. However, he pushed her away coldly and ruthlessly time and time again, leaving her hurt badly.
During the five years she lost contact abroad, she raised her daughter alone under tremendous psychological pressure.
After returning home, she suppressed the love in her heart and avoided him every time he approached her.
Fortunately, in the end, they did not miss it.
Xie Peizhou picked up the phone, his voice choking with sobs. "Miss Wen Ci, I am willing to promise to love you for the rest of my life. Whether you are poor or rich, healthy or sick, I will be loyal to you, protect you, and love you forever. Ah Ci, will you marry me?"
