Chapter 269 Xiaojiu, will you marry me?
Wen Jiu was originally dressed casually today, just jeans and a T-shirt, but Huo Beimo, who never cared about what she was wearing, asked her to put on a beautiful dress and high heels.
At this time, Huo Beimo's group of friends were obviously amazed by her, their eyes lit up, and even Ling Shuai couldn't help but linger on her for several seconds.
However, because of Huo Beimo's jealousy, no one dared to appreciate Wen Jiu more even if they thought she was stunning.
Wen Jiu thought about it now, this was Lu Xingyu's proposal party, and she had to dress more formally, so Huo Beimo would let her wear a beautiful dress before going out.
When the two of them walked towards the crowd, Lu Xingyu mysteriously called her to the side.
"Sister-in-law, come with me."
Wen Jiu glanced at Lu Xingyu's beautiful girlfriend with concern.
The girl smiled at Wen Jiu and rolled her eyes. Although she didn't say anything, she clearly expressed that she had no objection. Wen Jiu then followed Lu Xingyu.
He led Wen Jiu and pushed open a box in the restaurant.
As a result, there was actually Luo Yinyin standing in the box, holding a flower in her hand and smiling brightly at her.
As soon as she saw Wen Jiu, she handed her the flowers.
Wen Jiu couldn't believe her eyes for a while. She was stunned for a while, then hesitantly took the flowers, turned to look at Luo Yinyin, and then turned to look at Lu Xingyu who was leading her into the box behind her.
Unfortunately, Lu Xingyu didn't give her any reply, and turned around and left with a smile.
"Yinyin, why are you here?" Wen Jiu asked with a look of disbelief on his face.
She was muttering in her heart, didn't Huo Beimo tell her when she came just now that Lu Xingyu was going to propose to his girlfriend tonight? Why is her best friend here?
"Why am I here? Your husband will tell you later."
Luo Yinyin said mysteriously, holding the white gauze headdress in her hand, and walked around behind Wen Jiu. She tied the headdress in Wen Jiu's hair, and then held her hand and walked out of the box.
At this time, no one who was in the restaurant knew where they were, including Huo Beimo.
With a confused look on his face, Wen Jiu followed Luo Yinyin's lead up the stairs leading to the rooftop of the restaurant.
As soon as they reached the corner of the stairs, they saw Wen Nanzhi standing there holding a flower in his hand.
"Brother?" Wen Jiu called out with a look of disbelief on his face.
When she stepped forward to take the flowers from Wen Nanzhi, she would see a relative or friend at every corner of the stairs.
There were Luo Yinyin's parents and Wen Jiu's parents. They each held a flower in their hands and handed it to Wen Jiu with a smile.
Wen Jiu had completely realized what was happening, and she collected the flowers handed over by her relatives and friends one by one.
Until I reached the rooftop of the restaurant, I saw that the huge rooftop was decorated into a sea of pink roses, and on the beautiful flower wall was written: marryme.
Every time Wen Jiu took a step, he could see a beautifully packaged gift box. His friend Luo Yinyin was like a guide, guiding Wen Jiu to open the gifts one by one.
The gift boxes contained brand-name bags, rare jewelry, etc. Every time Wen Jiu opened a gift box, he was always amazed by the carefully selected gifts.
When the tall Huo Beimo walked out from behind the flower wall with a bouquet of fiery red roses in his hands, Wen Jiu's eyes became moist.
She thought that Huo Beimo didn't even remember that they hadn't held a wedding yet. After all, many men wouldn't care once they got it, and they wouldn't want to spend time and energy on romance.
Although she felt very uncomfortable when she thought that they would not have a wedding, she never mentioned it to Huo Beimo. Unexpectedly, he actually prepared everything silently.
"Xiaojiu, will you marry me?"
Huo Beimo knelt down on one knee very formally and handed the bouquet to Wen Jiu.
Wen Jiu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and while taking the bouquet, he said with a cry in his voice: "Aren't we already married?"
"But we haven't gone through the necessary procedures yet. Are you willing to go through it with me?" Huo Beimo stared into Wen Jiu's eyes.
Wen Jiu nodded, took the bouquet from him, and replied, "I do."
The smile on Huo Beimojun's face became even bigger. He took out a large dove egg diamond ring from his suit pocket and put the ring on Wen Jiu's green-white finger.
Then, he stood up and hugged Wen Jiu tightly.
As the two were kissing, Lu Xingyu's voice came from the direction of the beach.
"Congratulations to Lao Huo, the proposal was successful!"
As Lu Xingyu's words fell, there was a 'bang' sound, and beautiful fireworks bloomed in the air.
Tourists on the beach let out a series of exclamations.
Under the fireworks, Huo Beimo's good brothers were all busy setting off fireworks. Only Ling Shuai looked at the two people kissing passionately in the direction of the rooftop, his eyes showing an unconcealable sadness.
"Brother, why do you have such a sad expression? Do you think seeing Lao Huo so happy reminds you of that goddess you love so much?"
The attentive Xia Zhiyu noticed something was wrong with Ling Shuai's expression.
Ling Shuai then looked away, nodded and said, "Yes, I am lucky, old Hobi."
"You should be braver and take the initiative when you should. Life is only a few decades and it is not easy to meet a woman you like. Even a dull man like Lao Huo will be enlightened enough to know how to be romantic. Can you not be more romantic than him?"
"That's right, Lao Ling, our brothers all support you." Lu Xingyu continued.
Ling Shuai lowered his head and remained silent.
At night, after the bustle, it became quiet again. Wen Jiu lay in Huo Beimo's arms and couldn't help but ask: "Beimo, why did you suddenly think of proposing?"
"I was negligent before. I thought about it, what did I do badly to make others think that you can be driven away from me by being careful? Later I realized that I didn't do enough. There are many, many more, and I want to start by making up for a late wedding and let the whole world know how much you mean to me."
Huo Beimo's sincere answer made Wen Jiu's heart feel warm for a long time.
The next day, Grandma Huo invited the master to watch the wedding day.
The date is set in one month.
Everyone in the Huo family began to get busy preparing for the wedding. Naturally, the servants always complained about Wen's long absence from the wedding, but now they have nothing to complain about.
Everyone respects Wen Jiu much more than before.
Marriage is a matter between two families. Originally, Huo Beimo wanted to discuss it with Wen Jiu's parents. However, Wen Tianlang and Xia Jingshu have been accompanying her in the hospital recently, saying that her grandfather's condition is very bad.
After Wen Jiu learned about it, he went to the hospital and returned home feeling extremely depressed.
Just like what my parents said, my grandpa’s condition was so bad that even if he changed doctors and treatment plans, it would still be very dangerous.
At a young age, he suffered intracranial hemorrhage due to a fall. The overall situation did not support surgery at all, and ordinary doctors did not dare to operate on him. However, conservative treatment for his situation would only mean waiting for death.
"Beimo, haven't you found out Shi Yi's whereabouts yet?" Wen Jiu asked.
