Zhu Qianying listened attentively to his statement as if she were a judge, blinked, and reached out to pick up the ring from his palm.
He lowered his eyes and examined it carefully for a few moments.
Her gaze was so intensely focused on the ring that Yan Shao thought she was about to criticize its craftsmanship and design.
Zhu Qianying suddenly smiled, her lips curving upwards. She glanced at Yan Shao with a smile.
"Young Master Yan, don't you find this strange?"
Yan Shao was truly baffled, scratching his head. "Hmm? What's strange about that?"
Zhu Qianying was still playing with the ring on her hand. "You've messed up the whole order of things! Logically speaking, shouldn't you propose first, then get married, and then have children? But what about us? Think about it, let's put aside the fact that you proposed five years ago and we had our son. Yesterday you told me you wanted more children, but you only proposed to me today. Isn't the order of things all messed up?"
Yan Shao then realized that Zhu Qianying was just teasing him!
However, whether she was teasing him or genuinely wanted to play with him, he would play along until she nodded in satisfaction and accepted his proposal again.
He subtly shifted his knees, which were kneeling on the ground. His legs were starting to go numb from kneeling on one knee for so long.
"Honey, let's not worry about the order, okay?"
Zhu Qianying glanced at him sideways, her face clearly saying, "It's not impossible, as long as you can convince me!"
Yan Shao continued calmly, "Think about it, our dating, proposal, marriage, and having children—did any of those things happen in a specific order? So, as long as the timing is right, there's no need to be bound by the order or the form, okay?"
Zhu Qianying stared at him, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.
If this man hadn't spoiled her rotten, he certainly wouldn't have cared about these things.
In any case, whether in the eyes of outsiders or in the law, she is Yanhan's wife.
But he insisted on doing this. His only wish was for her to genuinely accept and acknowledge his identity as "Yan Han's wife."
At the same time, she sincerely and wholeheartedly recognized him as "Zhu Qianying's husband".
Zhu Qianying turned her head and handed the ring on her hand to the little guy behind her who had been secretly poking her lower back.
"Sweetie, please keep this ring safe for Mommy!"
The little guy didn't quite understand what the ring represented, but since it was taken from his father's hand, regardless of its meaning, it was definitely very expensive.
"Oh..." The little guy obediently took the ring, carefully opened his pocket, put it in, patted it with his hand, and then gave Zhu Qianying an OK sign.
Zhu Qianying lowered her eyes and watched Xiao Jia finish doing all this before turning her head back, extending her hand to Yan Shao, and beckoning him with her finger.
Yan Shao looked at her with some confusion; clearly, he didn't understand the meaning behind her actions.
Should we make him stand up?
Or did you agree to his request?
Zhu Qianying smiled again and shook her head helplessly.
"How stupid! Give me your hand!"
Although Yan Shao still didn't understand what she was up to, he obediently handed over his hand and placed it in hers.
Zhu Qianying shook her head again, "No, it's the left hand!"
Yan Shao had no choice but to withdraw his right hand and place his left hand in her palm.
Zhu Qianying grasped his large hand, brought it to her lips, and under his piercing gaze, lowered her head and gently placed a kiss on the spot where he wore a ring on his ring finger.
Yan Shao's heart began to pound rapidly for no reason. The tiny spot where she had kissed him felt like it had been scorched by fire, burning hot, or like it had been electrocuted, tingling and numb.
Zhu Qianying's lips were still gently pressed against his fingers, her eyelids slightly lifted, her gaze meeting his deep eyes.
"This place is now sealed by me! From this day forward, it can only be possessed by the ring that I, Zhu Qianying, designed and gave it to you. Do you agree to this?"
Her eyes seemed to carry a hint of allure, and her voice was as soft as a whisper.
But Yan Shao felt that her whispers had been etched into his heart, word by word.
He stared at her intently, and then replied very seriously.
"What's the big deal? My whole being belongs to you, let alone this finger!"
Upon hearing his words, Zhu Qianying smiled and winked at him, then moved her hand from his palm to his arm and tugged at it forcefully.
"Get up!"
Zhu Qianying tried her best to maintain this posture for a while, but she also felt a little sorry for him. She thought that this young master Yan had never knelt for anyone for so long before.
Even if it's just kneeling on one knee.
Yan Shao's legs were indeed numb from kneeling. He stood up, supporting his knees, and then, whether out of genuine nervousness or not, he brought his handsome face close to Zhu Qianying's.
"Honey, you're agreeing, right?"
Before Zhu Qianying could answer, the little guy who had been behind her peeked out from behind her, blinked his eyes, and asked Zhu Qianying.
"Mommy, does that mean you've agreed?"
Zhu Qianying smiled without saying a word. Seeing that the two men in the house, one big and one small, were getting a little nervous, she tiptoed slightly and kissed Yan Shao on the lips.
"Of course! My dear, wise and mighty husband!"
After kissing Yan Shao, she bent down and pecked Zizai's pink lips.
"Baby, we must be a good family from now on, okay?!" Zhu Qianying still felt lingering fear when she mentioned this.
The little guy nodded emphatically, "I know!"
Zhu Qianying smiled with satisfaction and was about to straighten up when Zizai tugged at her clothes. "Mommy, were you and Daddy discussing having a little sister for Zizai?"
Zhu Qianying turned her head slightly, exchanged a smile with Yan Shao, then kissed her son's cheek and openly admitted it.
"Yes, Daddy and Mommy are indeed discussing making Zai Zai a big brother. Does Zai Zai like having a little sister?"
The little one responded with an "Mmm" and explained innocently, "Because my little sister is cute, and she's caring!"
Zhu Qianying found that she was increasingly unable to understand her son's way of thinking.
"Is your younger sister caring?"
“Yes, isn’t it said that daughters are always sweet and considerate?” Zizai asked seriously, repeating what he had heard somewhere.
Zhu Qianying vaguely sensed a hint of disappointment in her son's words, so she pinched his cheek and coaxed him.
"Silly boy, it's not just daughters who are our sweet little cotton-padded jackets. Zizai is also very loving towards us, he's our sweet little cotton-padded jacket too, if you don't believe me, go ask Grandpa and Grandma!"
The little guy was sent away by Zhu Qianying to find his grandparents, while Yan Shao poked Zhu Qianying's left hand under her eyelids as she straightened up.
"Honey, the ring looks better here!"
