"You're proposing?!"
Lin Miaomiao's voice echoed throughout the living room, so loud it seemed to pierce people's eardrums.
Liang Zhirou quickly ran over and covered her mouth, glancing around instinctively, "You...you keep your voice down..."
After a long while, Lin Miaomiao repeatedly signaled with her eyes that she would not raise her voice again, and only then did the girl remove her hand.
Lin Miaomiao took two deep breaths, glanced at the character who had died because of her lack of control, and lost all interest in it. She turned her head and scratched her head, looking at Liang Zhirou with a puzzled expression.
Why are you in such a hurry to get married?
Good heavens, she doesn't even have the desire to find a boyfriend, how come her best friend is already preparing to propose?
You don't seem to be old enough to get a marriage certificate yet, do you?
Lin Miaomiao suddenly felt that mothers and mothers-in-law all over the country should like girls like Liang Zhirou, who don't even need to be urged to get married, they know how to get anxious on their own.
"I'm not in a rush to get married, I just want to get our marriage certificate as soon as possible," Liang Zhirou explained softly.
"Oh, I see~"
Lin Miaomiao deliberately flattered her, then asked, "Is there a difference?"
"Once you get the marriage certificate, you're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend. Like Yan Yan, you're only considered married after the wedding banquet..."
Liang Zhirou could never bring herself to say that once they got their marriage certificate, they were husband and wife.
Lin Miaomiao scratched her head again, struggling for a long time but still unable to figure out this silly and peculiar thought process.
In other families, it's the boyfriend who's afraid his girlfriend will run away, so why is it the other way around in her case?
"Then can you tell me, what made you suddenly decide to propose?" she asked curiously.
"Because it's June now, I'll be of marriageable age in October."
Liang Zhirou lowered her head, fidgeting with her fingers, and stammered as she explained, "I... I want to get our marriage certificate with Chen Lu as soon as the date comes, so I'm planning to propose. Anyway, I've done everything I needed to..."
She never actually thought that she had already given away the most important thing, so she needed a formal title.
She wanted to get married as soon as possible simply because she liked Chen Lu to that extent.
Since the wedding was such a big event that required notifying both sets of parents and holding a banquet, the decision was left entirely to Chen Lu. She had no intention of urging Chen Lu to decide on the date.
It doesn't matter when it's held, or even whether it's held at all.
She just wanted to get their marriage certificate on her birthday; it wouldn't interfere with Chen Lu's schedule much...
This was the only birthday gift she had ever asked for in her life, and it was also the one she wanted most.
"Are you in such a hurry to throw yourself into their mouth? I've never seen anyone so eager to give themselves away!" Lin Miaomiao sneered, speaking with great disdain.
Oh my, so that's what smells like! It's the sour, stinky smell of being in love.
A moment later, Lin Miaomiao suddenly froze again, her whole body standing there in a daze.
Ever since Liang Zhirou arrived, she has been receiving an overwhelming amount of information, and her mind is a little overwhelmed.
She casually tossed the mouse aside, gripped Liang Zhirou's shoulders tightly with both hands, and shook her repeatedly, "Wait, wait a minute! What do you mean by 'done everything that was supposed to be done'? Explain yourself clearly!"
Liang Zhirou kept her head down and didn't say anything, her lips pressed tightly together.
"Could it be that you two...?"
"No, no!" Seeing Lin Miaomiao's strange look, Liang Zhirou was too embarrassed to tell the truth and quickly waved her hand to refute.
Lin Miaomiao suddenly felt that she didn't need to ask anymore; this simpleton had been completely betrayed by her hurried actions and eyes.
"Zhirou, do you know? You can't lie in your life. The truth is written all over your face."
"Is it that obvious...? I definitely feel like I've become a lot smarter."
"......"
Lin Miaomiao suddenly felt as if she had a mouthful of blood in her mouth, and was about to spit it out in anger.
Before she knew the truth, she naturally felt very happy teasing Liang Zhirou with her jokes.
But it was just a joke, and now that she's discovered her joke was actually true, she still can't accept it.
The pure and innocent Liang Zhirou was actually... by Chen Lu...
Damn it, you beast!
Chen Lu, you're a beast!
The living room remained quiet for a long time.
Lin Miaomiao gazed at the Saber figurine on the table and asked softly, "Are you sure you want to propose?"
"Chen Lu is a good person, doesn't he deserve it?"
"It's great. I've never seen a guy more deserving of your help than Chen Lu. But I always feel that this makes Chen Lu seem a bit useless."
Lin Miaomiao said blankly. Her use of "useless" was not meant to be derogatory, it was just... something felt off.
She's never seen a girl propose in her entire life!
In TV dramas... maybe because she doesn't watch many, I've never seen her in TV dramas.
"Why didn't it work?" Liang Zhirou tilted her head in confusion. "Well, no one says only boys can propose, right?"
"...That seems to make sense."
For the first time, Lin Miaomiao was intimidated by Liang Zhirou and couldn't refute her.
"It's not that Chen Lu is useless."
Liang Zhirou pouted, then started counting on her fingers one by one. "Look, if he proposes in the future, and I'm by his side every day, what if he accidentally finds out? Then there won't be any surprise at all. I'll have to try my best to cooperate with him, but my acting skills aren't very good..."
Even if I didn't realize it beforehand, what if I wasn't dressed up when he proposed? This kind of thing only happens once in a lifetime, and I still want to look a little prettier.
