But most of the time it was Xia Yunxi who was talking, and Li Hanting listened quietly, occasionally recalling a sentence or two, which made Xia Yunxi feel very happy.
It was as if they had never talked on the phone for long periods of time over trivial matters. It was precisely because they had never experienced this before that, when their first death came, it seemed as if their hearts had unexpectedly become closer to each other.
Li Hanting's car drove very fast. When he came back, Xia Yunxi had already changed her clothes and dressed herself up.
When Li Hanting saw her appearance, a hint of surprise naturally flashed in his eyes.
Yes, Li Hanting knew that Xia Yunxi was very beautiful. He was not the kind of beauty that would make people stunned and unforgettable at first sight, but the kind that would become more beautiful the more you looked at him.
Some people often say that beauty lies in the bones, not in the skin, but true beauty comes from the bones. The feeling that every word and action involves the mind is something Li Hanting has never felt before.
However, this was the first time that the man seemed to feel something different.
It is precisely because of this difference that Li Hanting can truly look directly into his own heart.
He chuckled and raised his hand towards Xia Yunxi.
Without any words, Xia Yunxi placed her hand on his big palm.
The man gently grasped and wrapped her soft hand. It was just a simple action, but Xia Yunxi, following behind him, could clearly feel the feeling of being protected by him.
There was a kind of throbbing that slowly spread in her heart, and the smile on Xia Yunxi's lips never faded.
Li Hanting took Xia Yunxi to a French restaurant. After entering, they took the elevator all the way to the top floor.
The gray and yellow dim space may have such a certain style. Outside the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows are reflected the neon green lights of the entire river city and the hustle and bustle of traffic.
But it has the restaurant's unique style and romance.
Yes, the light sound of the violin is soothing and pleasant.
Li Hanting took her to sit in front of the French window. A waiter followed her around and reported to Li Hanting, "We have prepared everything you requested. Shall we start now?"
Li Hanting nodded, and the waiter said, "Please wait."
Then he turned and walked out.
After the waiter left, Xia Yunxi inadvertently raised her head, and when she saw the starry sky on the ceiling, a hint of surprise clearly flashed in her eyes.
Reflecting on something, she looked around and asked Li Hanting, "Why don't we see anyone else? Are we the only ones here?"
"yes!"
Xia Yunxi was genuinely surprised. After glancing around, she leaned forward, approached the table, and looked at Li Hanting, "What are you doing?"
Li Hanting's stern face, whether due to the dim light or something else, Xia Yunxi always felt that when his indifference faded away, the way he looked at her, he took off his solemnity and majesty, and seemed to be filled with tenderness.
Yes!
The way he looked at her was so gentle.
Xia Yunxi couldn't stand being stared at by him, "What, what's wrong?"
And just then, the sound of violin playing was getting closer and closer.
Xia Yunxi turned her head and saw that one of the three or four waiters was pushing a cart. The cart was surrounded by colorful lights, like colorful fireworks, wrapping around a large bouquet of roses in the middle.
The man playing the violin was walking in front, followed by two others, each holding something in their hands.
Xia Yunxi looked at Li Hanting, and Li Hanting twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "Do you like it?"
"Is it for me?" Xia Yunxi asked uncertainly.
"Yeah!" Li Hanting nodded.
"Is there any good news?" Xia Yunxi was really confused and didn't understand what he meant by this.
"Haha," Li Hanting laughed softly.
He usually looks like a smart person, but I didn't expect that he has such a cute side.
Well, I don’t know how this woman taught Xia Yuan to have such a personality.
Li Hanting stood up from his seat, walked to the waiter, and took something out of the bouquet of roses.
Under Xia Yunxi's wide-open gaze, Li Hanting actually knelt down on one leg in front of her, then opened the box, and a diamond ring appeared in front of him.
Such a scene, such a picture...
If Xia Yunxi is still slow to react, then she might really be stupid.
Xia Yunxi raised her hand to cover her mouth in disbelief. She hadn't expected Li Hanting to suddenly...
"I've thought about it and decided I should settle you down early, to avoid those wild butterflies outside fluttering around and disturbing the eyes."
Xia Yunxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could one propose like that?
"So, Miss Xia, are you willing to marry me? Don't worry, this is not an impulse, but a well-considered decision." Li Hanting had indeed thought it through thoroughly, which led to the current scene.
How do I say this?
It happened quite suddenly, but the sweet feeling that emerged from my heart cannot be ignored.
Let me ask, what kind of person is Li Hanting?
That was a person who was so powerful in the entire Jiangcheng that everyone was terrified by his stomping of feet.
But at this moment, he was kneeling in front of her, expressing his feelings very seriously.
He didn't use fancy, sweet words. He was proud, but that didn't mean he looked down on others and ignored his true feelings. It was precisely because he was proud that he spoke his true thoughts and disdained to tie someone down with fancy, empty promises.
Perhaps, this is what can truly give a person a sense of security!
At least that's how Xia Yunxi feels at the moment.
Everything happened naturally and spontaneously. There was nothing thrilling or exciting. It just happened naturally. They progressed to this point.
Xia Yunxi hid her joy in her clear eyes, but she couldn't help but reveal her smile.
She didn't say anything, but held out her hand to him.
No words are needed, only actions express it.
Li Hanting also smiled. He stood up and they sat down together.
Xia Yunxi had a lot of things she wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to ask them.
It was Li Hanting who took the initiative to speak, but what he said made Xia Yunxi stunned.
"Remember, next time you go out, you are my, Li Hanting's, fiancée. Husband and wife are one, so the way you speak represents me."
The word "image" naturally popped up in Xia Yunxi's mind. Indeed, for Li Hanting, the behavior of the people around him, no matter whether good or bad, once they go out, what others see is related to Li Hanting.
After realizing this, Xia Yunxi suddenly felt a surge of pressure from nowhere.
Maybe it was because of what this person brought to her. After all, with his identity and the companies under his control, he was in charge of so many people and things.
Is she really a match for this man?
