"I came out just two days after you left."
After saying this, Cheng Jinxing scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Ah? How could this be? Did you come here just to see me?"
Xue Hanyu said in surprise.
"Yes! I came here specifically to find you. You're so stupid and foolish, what if you get kidnapped? You're all alone, and you look like a girl. What if someone with ulterior motives follows you and captures and sells you? It's a good thing you met a female bandit when you got off the boat, and I'm grateful to her. If you had met a male bandit, you might have been captured and made a concubine! What would I do if you became a concubine?"
Cheng Jinxing said angrily.
Xue Hanyu tilted her head back and looked at Cheng Jinxing with her bright eyes, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
Cheng Jinxing only saw himself in her eyes.
His heart was like the fireworks during the New Year.
Bang!
The fireworks exploded in a dazzling array of colors.
"Xue Hanyu, I, Cheng Jinxing, will not bear to see you suffer, nor will I bear to see you cry. If possible, I would be willing to exchange everything I have for your lifelong happiness! Promise me, be good, okay?"
Cheng Jinxing held Xue Hanyu's shoulders with both hands, looked into Xue Hanyu's eyes, and spoke seriously and earnestly.
"Jinxing, I..."
At this moment, Xue Hanyu's heart was beating faster than ever before.
"Don't talk!"
Cheng Jinxing knew what Xue Hanyu was going to say and interrupted her.
"Xue Hanyu, don't say so much. I know what you want to say, but I don't want to hear it now. I traveled through mountains and rivers to find you, not to hear you say that you treat me as your nephew. I want to tell you my heart."
"My last name is Cheng, and my aunt, my father's sister, is also surnamed Cheng. Your last name is Xue, and your family is in the capital, so you have no relatives at all with our Cheng family. I only have one aunt, and her name is Cheng Yue, not Xue Hanyu."
"You are twenty-one, and I am seventeen. You are unmarried, and I am unmarried. There is no rule in Da Qi that prohibits a seventeen-year-old man from marrying a twenty-one-year-old girl. Neither your Xue family's rules nor my Cheng family's rules."
"I can accept that you don't like me, but I can't accept that you don't like me because you treat me as your nephew."
"From now on, I won't call you Aunt Hanyu."
"Xue Hanyu, can you wait for me? Wait for me, wait until I finish the martial arts exam. Although I can't say for sure that I will become the top martial arts champion, I promise that I will work hard to match you."
"Xue Hanyu, can you wait for me?"
Cheng Jinxing spoke out the words that he had kept in his heart for so long.
They have known each other for more than a year.
Over the past year, especially recently, his desire to marry Xue Hanyu has become stronger and stronger.
He felt that he couldn't live without her.
If he couldn't marry her, he might never marry in his life.
The place in his heart had long been occupied by Xue Hanyu.
From the time the seed was planted until it took root and sprouted, in just one year, the seed had grown into a towering tree, filling his heart completely. He would never let go of anyone else, and the tree would grow taller and more luxuriant.
Xue Hanyu was completely stunned.
She didn't know how to respond. She just felt her heartbeat had reached its peak. She even felt that if Cheng Jinxing continued talking, she might die because her heart could no longer beat.
But at the same time, there was another wonderful feeling surrounding her heart, sweet, something she had never tasted before.
No, she had tasted it many times before when she was with Cheng Jinxing.
