Chapter 436 Let’s Get Married (End)
It only took Gu Nan one week from deciding to buy a house to finding one and signing the contract.
Within the Third Ring Road, a three-bedroom, one-living room apartment, 138 square meters, fully paid, more than 10 million yuan, emptied all of Gu Nan's savings.
Lin Shili was shocked when he heard that Gu Nan wanted the full payment. He knew that Gu Nan's salary was not low, but he didn't know it was so high.
In fact, most of the more than 10 million is the image usage fee paid by the Tianguang Research Center to Gu Nan. In recent years, more and more people have been awakened by virtual awakeners, and Gu Nan can receive remittances from the research center every month.
I heard from Yi Jingrong that the awakening project has entered the final stage. It won’t be long before the Tianguang awakening device will be approved to enter major hospitals to provide targeted treatment for comatose vegetative patients. At that time, Gu Nan will receive more remittances.
The awakening project was completed, but other branch research groups based on the skylight awakening system had been established and were short of manpower. Yi Jingrong asked Gu Nan several times if he had any research directions of interest and joined the Skylight Research Center to work again.
Gu Nan refused and said with a smile: "Wait another two years, you might want to use my research results for experiments."
Yi Jingrong immediately lost her composure because she knew that what Gu Nan said might very well come true.
In recent years, a large number of scientific research talents have poured into the field of AI for science. They are working in full swing in research directions such as AI pharmaceuticals, meteorological science, and molecular simulation. With Gu Nan's speed of completing a large chaotic neural network model in two years, the Tianguang Research Center may really be able to use Gu Nan's research results.
Yi Jingrong had a complicated expression, "I really want to get into your brain and see what its structure is."
How did Gu Nan seamlessly transition from an employee of a large company to a talented researcher?
Gu Nan said half-seriously, "Go to the wake-up system and you'll find out."
Yi Jingrong just thought she was joking.
There were so many people coming out of the awakening system, but only Gu Nan was rushing forward as if he had a propeller on his butt.
Yi Jingrong pounded his stiff shoulders and said with emotion, "It's time for young people to make their mark in this world. I heard you bought a house. Congratulations. Remember to call me when you move."
Gu Nan's smile deepened, and he said seriously, "Thank you, I will."
The hard and soft furnishings of the house are still under design, and are personally supervised by Lin Shili. People will have to wait until the decoration is completed before moving in, which will take at least one or two years.
But don’t worry, the house is already there, and the home is already there.
It was almost as expected. The decoration took a year and the formaldehyde removal took half a year. On a sunny spring day, Gu Nan and Lin Shili moved into their new house.
Then they each invited some good friends to a small gathering at their home. A group of people gathered around the table to eat, drink, and chat. Somehow, they ended up talking about getting married.
In the eyes of the public, for a couple who have been together for many years and have a stable relationship, the next step after buying a house is to prepare for marriage. Now that they have moved, it is time to put the wedding on the agenda.
Lin Shili's friends started to tease him, saying that if he didn't know how to cherish such a good girlfriend, it would be too late to regret when there were plenty of people who would cherish her for him.
Gu Nan’s friend asked, “Have you prepared the proposal ring and the engagement ceremony? Just think about getting married. Even if you are good-looking, you can’t just daydream.”
Gu Nan looked over the messy dining table at Lin Shili. He was listening to his friends whispering. Maybe it was because he had drunk some wine, but there was a blush on his cheeks. When he noticed Gu Nan's gaze, he looked over.
A pair of watery eyes seemed like obsidian dripping with honey, bright and glowing, as if many things would burst out from them in the next moment.
Gu Nan looked at him, thinking he was about to say something.
But he pushed away his chattering friend and avoided Gu Nan's sight.
After the party, both parties sent their friends downstairs to go home.
Yi Jingrong pulled Gu Nan aside and whispered, "It's been so many years, and he hasn't said anything?"
Gu Nan thought about it but couldn't figure it out.
Gu Nan has gradually become accustomed to Lin Shili's worrying about everything, and will subconsciously ignore many details that he would not have ignored before. In Gu Nan's eyes, everything is the same as before.
How come Lin Shili, who used to be so anxious to ask her for a legitimate status, is not anxious at all now?
Yi Jingrong saw Gu Nan's thoughtful look and said seriously, "Tell me about the progress of your current project. I'll give you an idea to force him."
Gu Nan's expression suddenly changed and he turned and left.
Just kidding, the project is sacred and no traitor can get involved.
Gu Nan went upstairs a step later than Lin Shili. When she returned home, Lin Shili was already tidying up the messy dining table.
Gu Nan wanted to help, but he felt he couldn't do anything, so he just threw away two bags of garbage.
As the night deepened, Gu Nan washed up and lay comfortably on the bed to rest.
This bed was selected by Lin Shili after searching through many brand stores. The mattress was extremely comfortable and Gu Nan fell asleep soon after lying down.
"Sister..." A hot body pressed tightly against him from behind. Gu Nan forced himself to open his eyes and patted his hands on his waist.
Lin Shili had just finished taking a shower and his breathing was still a little rapid. The spray behind his ears felt hot and itchy. Gu Nan moved outside and Lin Shili followed immediately.
Such a big bed is once again facing the dilemma of being occupied by less than one-third of its space.
"Sister." Lin Shili spoke again, "I've got a ring that I've taken a fancy to."
Gu Nan opened his eyes.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Lin Shili's voice was clear and steady, "Sister, do you want to take a look?"
Gu Nan turned over and faced Lin Shili, and asked seriously, "What ring?"
Lin Shili sat up and reached for something from the bedside table.
Gu Nan thought he would bring a ring box, but he actually brought a cell phone. After opening it, he placed a picture in front of Gu Nan and asked, "Does it look good?"
A display picture with a white background shows a pair of platinum snake bone rings placed in a ring box. The women's ring is full of diamonds, and the men's ring is plain. One small and one large are leaning against each other, which is very design-conscious.
Gu Nan: "It looks good."
"Do you like it, sister?"
Gu Nan was in a strange mood, but still said, "Not bad."
"If I use this pair of rings to propose..." Lin Shili said tentatively.
Gu Nan looked up and saw Lin Shili asking expectantly, "Will it succeed?"
The lighting in the room was also carefully selected by Lin Shili. It was a warm yellow light with no main lamp. When only one light was on, the whole room was filled with a warm honey color. At this moment, Gu Nan looked at Lin Shili under such light, and his eyes seemed brighter and softer.
Gu Nan understood his hint and deliberately said, "How do you know if you don't try?"
Almost the moment he finished speaking, Lin Shili rolled off the bed, opened the drawer and took out a ring box that was exactly the same as the one in the display picture.
Then he knelt on one knee beside the bed, opened the box, and revealed a pair of snake bone rings.
Gu Nan looked at the pair of rings and smiled unconsciously, but his tone was drawn out, "Ah, you play me."
Lin Shili also smiled, a conspicuous blush quickly appearing on her cheeks, and her bright eyes were like two sparkling gems. "Sister, are you willing?"
"Sister, are you willing to marry me?"
He was kneeling under the bed, wearing the silk pajamas that Gu Nan had picked for him. There were a few kiss marks under the open collar that had not yet disappeared. He looked casual, sexy, and not formal at all.
Gu Nan reached out his hand.
She and Lin Shili have been through many ups and downs together, and this year marks their eighth year together.
For them, getting married seems to be a natural thing that does not require much thought.
"If I refuse, will you cry?" Gu Nan teased him.
Lin Shili nervously put the ring on Gu Nan's finger, then placed a kiss on it with great care. Finally, he raised his head and smiled at Gu Nan, tears already welling up in his eyes. "Yes, I will cry really, really, really hard."
Gu Nan raised his hand and touched his face, "Don't cry, I agree."
Lin Shili burst into laughter, and then tears flowed like a spring.
He climbed onto the bed using his hands and feet, hugged Gu Nan and cried bitterly.
This tiny seed first grew in another world. It sprouted, withered, and was reborn in spring. It grew little by little, and its vines climbed and climbed until it reached this moment in life.
He waited for five years, ten years, and then eight years... and finally it came.
