The next second, Xu Chengzhi's body suddenly shrank by half.
"Yangyang, will you marry me?" Xu Chengzhi knelt on one knee for the third time, his tone as sincere and earnest as ever.
Lin Yang moved the bellflowers down a bit, trying to look over the flowers in her arms, and saw Xu Chengzhi pull out a diamond ring from somewhere and hold it up in his hand.
This design is different from the previous two, and it is simpler and cleaner.
There are no diamonds, just a simple silver ring band.
The words "XloveL" are prominently engraved on it.
Their surnames are abbreviations.
Although the design is simple, Lin Yang could still tell at a glance that the silver material was of the highest quality.
"I'm sorry..." Lin Yang's dark eyes darkened, and he was about to refuse.
She felt a chill on her neck, her body stiffened and she dared not move, swallowing back the rest of her words.
"Xu Chengzhi, what do you mean?" Lin Yang's tone changed abruptly, and she almost let go of the bouquet she was holding.
Her body was stiff, and the bouquet of flowers blocked her view. She could barely see the top of Xu Chengzhi's head, but she couldn't see his expression at this moment.
"Can't you tell? Yangyang, I'm proposing to you." Xu Chengzhi didn't know how to be embarrassed, so he kept his tone innocent and harmless.
Lin Yang glanced cautiously at the knife at her neck. "I can see that... but can I not marry him?"
Upon hearing this, the knife threateningly pressed against the carotid artery in the neck again.
"Sister-in-law, what did you say? The wind was too strong, I didn't hear you." Jiang Fan held the dagger in one hand and picked at his ear with his little finger with the other.
Does she... still dare to say it?
This is hardly a marriage proposal!
This is forced marriage, isn't it?!
Xu Chengzhi, are you angry because I rejected you?
First they tricked me into coming out, then they had someone hold a knife to my neck and force me to marry them!
Damn it! Don't you have any human rights at all?!
"Brother... Brother Jiang... you have to be careful with your hand, a knife like that could kill someone..." Lin Yang swallowed hard, clearly feeling just how strong the blade pressed against his neck was.
“Sister-in-law, I’m not like Xu Chengzhi, who has such great patience. Even after being rejected twice, he still knelt down a third time to propose to you. Even if you don’t agree today, there’s nothing I can do. We have to respect everyone’s choice. But…” Jiang Fan stopped halfway through his sentence, his grip on the dagger trembling a few times, pretending that he was too weak to hold it properly.
Lin Yang felt like crying. Why was she so unlucky?
Since arriving in this wretched world, her life has been beckoning death countless times.
She couldn't help but question her life, wondering if she would even live to see the day she returned home after completing her mission.
"Brother Jiang, I understand, I understand. I was just joking with him, wasn't I? Wasn't this to create a surprise twist? Actually, I wanted to say sorry, and then, when he was feeling down, I would deliberately twist the situation and say yes, haha..." In that dangerous moment, Lin Yang's mind raced, and she herself didn't know what she had made up.
"Oh? Sister-in-law is quite humorous." Jiang Fan steadied the dagger, ceasing his attempt to scare Lin Yang. "So, sister-in-law, you've agreed?"
"Absolutely! I'll marry him! I'll definitely marry him! Haha... Then this dagger... is it okay?" Lin Yang carefully tilted her neck to the left, trying to get away from the danger near her neck.
Suddenly, Xu Chengzhi stood up without anyone noticing, and Lin Yang had to look up at him again.
She was holding the bouquet of flowers and didn't have time to free her hands.
I just felt that my ring finger was cold and something was holding it in place.
The next second, she was pulled into Xu Chengzhi's arms and held tightly.
Lin Yang was still in a daze when Xu Chengzhi focused on checking her neck for any accidental injuries.
Jiang Fan clicked his tongue, put the dagger back in his belt, and looked at Xu Chengzhi's nervous attitude with disdain. "I'm telling you, brother, if you can't bring yourself to be ruthless towards her, you'll suffer sooner or later!"
