After Su Li finished showering, she saw Song Qinze's two missed calls.
She went outside to the balcony and called back; he answered almost instantly.
"Mr. Song, what's the matter with you calling me?"
"Su Li, I suddenly remembered what you asked me today. My bodyguard seems to have found something there. I wonder if it's yours."
"Really? Let me see."
"Let's meet somewhere tomorrow. I'll give it to you in person and send you the address later."
"good."
Song Qinze hung up the phone.
Su Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the earring had been found, otherwise she would never feel at ease.
These past few days, her grandmother has been appearing in her dreams, asking her about the whereabouts of her earrings. She is always filled with guilt, as it was the last thing her grandmother left her.
A figure approached and gently hugged her from behind. "Who were you talking to on the phone?"
Su Li turned her head and looked at the man's handsome profile before honestly answering, "Song Qinze said someone found my earring and will bring it to me tomorrow."
At the mention of Song Qinze, Quan Ye's brows furrowed with displeasure.
He fiddled with her manicured nails and said, "I'll have someone pick up your things tomorrow, so you don't need to go."
“He said he would give it to me personally. Don’t worry, I’ll come back as soon as I get it. I’ll also ask for leave tomorrow so I can go to the hospital to check on Zhou Kai.”
"Don't you expect me to do something in return?"
"Okay, here you go."
She cupped his head in her hands, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the lips.
Quan Ye turned his head to show his left cheek, "Let's do this one too."
Su Li kissed him on the cheek once each, "Is this alright, my Mr. Quan?"
He nodded. "Barely satisfactory."
"Then I'll go in and go to sleep first."
Quan Ye wrapped his arms around her waist to stop her from leaving, his thin lips gently resting on her snow-white neck, forming a loving posture.
"Why are you walking so fast? Did I tell you to go to sleep?"
"Then what else do you want?"
The two looked up at the stars in the night sky, twinkling peacefully.
Quan Ye gently stroked her hair and asked, "How are you thinking about marriage?"
"What?"
"Su Li, don't tell me you don't understand. I've been giving you hints these past few days."
Su Li's heart was pounding, but she pretended to be calm on the surface. "I really didn't understand. There's a limit to your jokes. If you keep doing this, I'll take it seriously."
"I'm not joking, I'm serious about proposing to you."
"But there's still so much between us..."
"I'm the one who calls the shots in Haicheng. Do you think I have to listen to others when I choose a wife? Su Li, all you need to do is tell me, do you want to or not?"
Quan Ye held her shoulders, making her look into his eyes, eager to know her true thoughts.
"As long as you tell me your true thoughts, I'll take care of the rest. Even if the whole world tries to stop us from being together, I will still firmly choose you."
Su Li was captivated by his deep, affectionate black eyes. Her nose tingled, and her eyes welled up with tears, as if she had found her answer in that moment.
She never dared to imagine that he would fall in love with her, but now his actions have shown it.
"I……"
A cell phone ring broke the silence.
Quan Ye took out his phone and saw that it was a call from the hospital.
"Master Quan, Zhou Kai's condition has suddenly worsened, and he has been sent to the emergency room. His condition is quite critical."
Upon hearing this, Su Li and Quan Ye exchanged a glance. How could their condition have worsened out of nowhere?
"Okay, I'll be right there."
