Once, when grandma was not at home, Su Zhiruan had nothing to do, so she went downstairs to find Lu Peijing. When she found that he had not gotten up yet, she suddenly felt like going to tease him.

The result... morning exercise...

Lu Peijing had a good figure, with a thin layer of muscles, lean but strong. As he hugged her, he suddenly thought of something.

"When are we getting married?"

Su Zhiruan was panting, and at first she was distracted and didn't even know what he was talking about. But after she came to her senses, she was a little helpless, "Mr. Lu, are you sure you want to propose to me at this time?"

At this moment, the two were in a connected state, and although the sun was already shining quietly, they had no intention of getting up.

"Or... get a certificate first?" Lu Peijing fumbled in the drawer and took out a household registration book, "We have to consider three children."

He knew Su Zhiruan very well, and she would definitely agree as long as he mentioned the three children.

So, on such an ordinary morning, the two of them made an appointment to get their marriage certificate.

When grandma found out, she didn't say anything. Instead, she kindly said that feelings need to be cultivated slowly, and that getting the marriage certificate first shows that they are a family. Then, she worked all afternoon and prepared a large table of dishes to celebrate the couple's marriage certificate.

He also handed over the brilliant starlight that he had wanted to give away to Su Zhiruan as he wished.

* They got their marriage certificate in the spring, and when Mr. Lu found out, he kept urging them to go back. He hadn't seen his grandchildren for a long time, and he was very anxious. In addition, the company had a lot of affairs to deal with, and he really couldn't hold on as he was old.

Su Zhiruan was successfully admitted with the first place in the re-examination and the written examination, but this also meant that the two of them had to start a long-distance mode.

Before leaving, Lu Peijing hugged her reluctantly, "I don't want to leave, I want to stay."

"Go back, I will visit you often." Su Zhiruan hugged the three children in turn. The children at this time changed every day. Mingzhu blinked and looked at her, still reluctant to leave.

"How about Mingzhu follow me?" Su Zhiruan kissed her daughter's little face. She was wearing a little skirt. She stretched out her hands and wanted her to hug her. She felt soft, sweet and she was reluctant to let her go.

"Qing and Qingyuan also seem to want to stay." Lu Peijing looked helplessly at his two sons, one big and three small, all of whom wanted to stick to Su Zhiruan.

Qinghe was more calm and just watched eagerly. Qingyuan couldn't bear it any longer and started to make a fuss about being held. Lu Peijing picked up both him and Qinghe, one in each hand.

"Mingzhu will follow you. After all, a little girl needs her mother's guidance. You are indispensable for some things," Lu Peijing said as he kissed the pretty, cute and chubby Mingzhu, feeling reluctant to let her go. "When these children grow up and can take over the business, we will travel around the world at leisure."

"Okay." Su Zhiruan nodded, "I'll go to Jinghua to see you and the child when I'm free."

"Mrs. Lu, you must keep your word," Lu Peijing held the two children and snuggled up to Su Zhiruan. The five-person family was warm and sweet.

* The rest of life gradually got back on track.

Su Zhiruan had a strong learning ability and followed a well-known and good tutor, which helped her to further improve her academic performance and even met the requirements for early graduation after a year and a half.

Little girl Lu Mingzhu has followed her in and out of the campus since she was a child. She likes reading very much, but her personality is not introverted and calm. Instead, she always has a smiling face and is very likable. Every time the unmarried men and women in the same school as Su Zhiruan meet her, they sigh that they also want to give birth to a soft and caring little girl.

Grandma's flower shop business was growing bigger and bigger, and the costs had increased several times. Su Zhiruan simply expanded the store and let grandma run the business in a big way.

For a year and a half, almost two years, although Su Zhiruan and Lu Peijing were living apart, she felt helplessly that they were as close as ever.

They had non-stop video calls every day, and occasionally during holidays, Lu Peijing would bring his two children to see her and Mingzhu. Their life was comfortable and leisurely.

When the three children called dad and mom, Su Zhiruan and Lu Peijing were so happy and excited that they tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night.

After graduation, Su Zhiruan passed the civil service exam and worked in the Jinghua Office.

At first, she rented a house and Lu Peijing came to stay overnight every now and then.

After the work was assigned, she found that this place was very close to Lu Peijing's Golden Waterside Pavilion, so Su Zhiruan simply moved back here. Looking at the familiar furnishings and the clean room, it felt like a lifetime ago.

"This place... is still the same as when I left..." She couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the spotless room that was obviously cleaned regularly.

Lu Peijing immediately took her hand and put his head on her shoulder. "Of course, I clean it myself every day."

Looking at the surprised expression of the little woman in his arms, Lu Peijing just smiled and said nothing.

Ever since she left him late at night without saying goodbye a few years ago, Lu Peijing has been living in her room. For a while, he drank, smoked, let himself go, tortured himself, and even tore up the contract. But when he came to his senses, he thought that his Ruan Ruan loved cleanliness the most, and if she saw him like this, she would definitely not like it.

So, with a very guilty heart, he cleaned the whole room bit by bit by himself.

Every day was like this afterwards. He was afraid that her presence would be lost here, and he didn't want to see time and dust bury this place. So every day when he came back, the first thing he would do was to clean up and tidy up the place, making sure the windows and tables were spotless, as if she was still living here.

"Ruan Ruan," Lu Peijing suddenly called her solemnly, "Follow me."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Hmm?" Su Zhiruan didn't understand what he meant, but when he held her hand, she followed him obediently.

Lu Peijing took her downstairs and walked towards the back garden.

"Why did you bring me here?" Su Zhiruan asked after taking two steps.

Lu Peijing was still keeping it a secret, "You'll know when you come."

Then he slowly covered her eyes.

Su Zhiruan had already guessed it in his heart.

She suddenly felt very fortunate that she had put on makeup and wore a new dress when she came.

"Ms. Su, please open your eyes!"

Su Zhiruan heard a familiar voice, and the voice with a smile gestured for her to open her eyes - it was her grandmother! She recognized it immediately!

Then, she slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Lu Peijing standing in front of her against the light with a sincere expression. He was holding a small box in his hand, which contained a very large and shiny diamond ring.

"Ruan Ruan, I'm sorry that my proposal came a little late," Lu Peijing hugged her gently, "The best time to propose to you was yesterday, and the second best time was now. I couldn't wait to plan today, and I thought of countless grand proposal ceremonies, but perhaps a proposal that was too ostentatious would affect your work, so I finally chose this place."

"Many years ago, I didn't believe in love or marriage. I was indifferent to everything and didn't care about the world. To me, living was just living," he said, slowly kneeling on one knee, holding up the small box, and continued sincerely, "But I met you. Maybe it's cliché to say this, but I've chosen you. In this life, I will love you forever."

"Ruan Ruan - are you willing?"
