She usually thought she had a pretty thick skin, but now she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Her face flushed slightly: "Are you serious?"
Fan Xilou nodded: "My father taught me from a young age that a man should be responsible and not joke around with women casually."
"That's why I never joke about things like this. I've also inquired about it. The Prince sent people to raid the Qu family a few days ago. You are no longer engaged to the Qu family."
The Qu family's proposal to marry Ye Qingwan was originally somewhat ill-intentioned, and their actions were even more motivated by a desire for fame and reputation.
Ye Junfei had never liked them before, and a few days ago they got into trouble and ended up in Ye Junfei's hands.
Ye Junfei immediately dispatched troops to ransack the Qu family's residence, beheading all the men and forcing all the women into hard labor.
The Qu family mansion has now been completely destroyed.
Ye Qingwan pursed her lips and said, "I am no longer engaged to the Qu family, but it is still somewhat inappropriate to set our marriage like this."
Fan Xilou nodded and said, "I came tonight to ask for your opinion. If you agree, I will ask the prince for your hand in marriage tomorrow."
Ye Qingwan usually talks a big game, but when it comes down to it, she chickens out.
She coughed lightly and said, "Let me think about this some more."
Fan Xilou almost laughed when he saw her expression, but he said with a straight face, "I think you don't need to think about this anymore."
"After all, you brought it up a few days ago that you wanted to marry me, and I took it seriously."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards her. She subconsciously stepped back, but she could only take a few steps before she hit the wall and had nowhere to retreat.
Fan Xilou placed his hands on either side of her ears, looked at her, and said, "There's something else I want to tell you."
His breath wafted over her, filling Ye Qingwan's face, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
She stammered, "Wha...what is it?"
Fan Xilou looked into her eyes and said, "Marriage is a major event that should be initiated by the man."
"So I'll pretend I didn't hear anything you said before. Tonight, I'm the one who's here to propose to you."
When Ye Qingwan heard these words, a part of her heart softened completely.
Her previous teasing of him was, of course, because she found him amusing, but it was mostly just a joke.
But the man in front of him took it seriously. Although he didn't say how he earned that box of things, he must have suffered a lot.
So when she jokingly mentioned marriage, he was already thinking about how to make it a reality.
Her eyebrows curved slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up: "Okay!"
Fan Xilou asked her, "So, will you marry me?"
Ye Qingwan nodded slightly.
She was about to speak when Fan Xilou lowered his head and kissed her lips.
