After their teammates left, on a warm summer afternoon, sunlight filtered through the leaves onto the grass, and a gentle breeze caressed their hair.
Junjue held Wan'er's hand tightly, his heart pounding with excitement. His courage and determination accompanied him as he made his decision.
The Duke gently held the rings and necklaces around their necks. At first glance, the exquisite rings looked like a complete circle, representing the love they had promised each other.
When the Duke took out the rings and necklaces worn around the necks of the two people, the sparkling rings shone with iridescent light in the sunlight, as dazzling as stars.
He gently untied the two rings, his heart filled with a mixture of nervousness and tenderness.
Wan'er looked at the ring in Junjue's hand, a hint of surprise and emotion flashing in her eyes.
She never imagined that the Duke would propose to her in such a romantic and unique way.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the hardships they had gone through, and their perseverance and dedication to each other.
He took a deep breath, gazed into Wan'er's eyes, and a subtle smile appeared on his face.
Wan'er was slightly shocked; she hadn't expected Junjue to do such a thing.
She gazed at him, her eyes filled with tenderness and emotion.
She had imagined this scene countless times, and now it was truly unfolding before her eyes.
The Duke looked around with deep affection, feeling the tranquility and warmth brought to him by the sunlight and the breeze.
He subconsciously adjusted his breathing, deciding to express his feelings sincerely.
"Wan'er, we've gone through so many difficulties and challenges to finally be together."
I understand that every separation and hardship is meant to strengthen our love for each other.
I want to tell you that I'm willing to spend the rest of my life protecting, cherishing, and safeguarding you.
His voice was deep and firm, like a vow.
Wan'er sensed the sincerity and determination deep in Junjue's heart. Her eyes gradually welled up with tears, and she couldn't help but gently stroke Junjue's face.
"My Lord, I can feel your love for me. Every move you make makes me feel happy and at ease."
We've been through countless hardships together, and seeing your confession now, I have only one answer in my heart: Yes, I do!
After saying this, Wan'er couldn't help but shed tears; each tear was an unwavering reply to Junjue.
The nobleman was so moved that he could not speak and burst into tears.
He had waited for this moment for far too long; he had finally waited for this day.
He gently unfastened their necklaces, removed the rings from the necklaces, and held them tightly in his hand.
Wan'er also untied his ring and placed it in Junjue's palm.
The two perfect rings are so alike, as if they were made for each other.
A resolute glint flashed in Junjue's eyes. He knelt on one knee, and Wan'er's heart was deeply touched by this scene.
Junjue continued in a deep and moving voice, "Wan'er, I, Junjue, am willing to love you and protect you with a lifetime of deep affection."
Will you marry me?
Be my life partner and create a wonderful future together.
The clouds in the sky seemed to proclaim their love, and the gentle breeze seemed to be welcoming their union.
Wan'er's heart melted completely at that moment; tears streamed down her face, and her heart pounded incessantly.
A warm feeling welled up in Wan'er's heart; she could hardly believe she was in the midst of such a perfect and romantic proposal.
She felt the intense love from the Duke, and she also felt all the effort and thought he had put in.
She gazed at the Duke quietly, her eyes filled with gratitude and love.
She nodded gently, tears welling up in her eyes.
"My Lord, I do, I do want to marry you and spend every unforgettable moment with you."
Our love will become an impregnable fortress.
Their eyes met, and the air was filled with their love for each other. Their promise was like a vow made for their love.
Thank you, my darling!
Junjue excitedly placed the ring gently on Wan'er's finger, and Wan'er also put the ring on his finger. The two rings were tightly joined together, as if foreshadowing their decision.
They embraced, cheek to cheek, tears and smiles mingling, creating their own romantic moment.
The nobleman took out two exquisite necklaces from his bosom; their silvery light shimmered in the sunlight, displaying their unique charm.
He gently helped Wan'er put the new necklace back on.
Wan'er was instantly captivated by the scene before her. She was deeply moved by Junjue's eyes, as if she could see all his sincerity and promises.
Junjue's voice was gentle yet firm: "Wan'er, we've been through so many difficulties together, and our love has finally reached its rightful moment."
"If I can spend the rest of my life with you, I will protect you, cherish you, and safeguard you with my own life."
A tear glistened in Wan'er's eyes. She had never felt such deep love before. She responded in a trembling voice:
"I want to spend the rest of my life with you. It's so wonderful to be with you."
Upon hearing her answer, Junjue's smile shone like the sun. He gripped Wan'er's ring finger tightly, then pulled her into his arms and gently kissed her forehead.
The surrounding flowers seemed to bloom even more radiantly in celebration of this moment of happiness. Wan'er felt Junjue's warmth and steadfastness, and she deeply understood that this man was her destiny.
Junjue raised his head, looked at the birds flying in the sky, and said softly, "Wan'er, I will give you a happy home and a warm embrace. No matter what happens, I will be by your side to protect you."
