The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy - Chapter 1220

1220 Engagement

He put the ring on her finger, where it glowed brightly under the sunlight.

“Miss Shen, thank you.”

He got up and took her into his arms. He kissed away the tears at the corner of her eyes before kissing her soft lips.

She looked up at him with tears in her eyes.

“Lu Huaiyu, when did you remember this?”

She had always thought that he did not know anything. She thought that after she told him about that dream, that would be all.

Lu Huaiyu’s lips curved slightly.

“On the night you told me, I dreamed your dream.”

Her heart trembled.

No wonder.

It was no wonder that he had taken care of her food and daily life in those few days.

She had even teased him for his great improvement. However, it turned out to be…

Lu Huaiyu looked at her and smiled.

“So, you heard my last words at that time. Fortunately, I’ve finally gotten your answer.”

She leaned into his arms.

Yes.

It was said that when people were about to die, the last thing they would lose was their hearing.

Indeed, she had heard what he had said.

It was only after waiting for two lifetimes that she finally got the chance to nod in agreement.

She felt as if her heart was full of something, both sour and full, about to overflow.

This was the reason he had wanted to meet with Shen Zhijin and the Gu family.

He had already waited for too long.

“Afterwards…”

She opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly stopped.

She wanted to ask him how he had lived in his previous life without her.

However, when the words came to her mouth, she found that she could not ask that.

Lu Huaiyu ruffled her hair.

Of course, he knew what she wanted to ask. After thinking for a moment, he took the initiative to speak. The tone of his voice was casual, and there was a trace of a smile in it.

“After that, life was very boring, so let’s not talk about it.”

She muttered a soft “yes.”

He held her hand and smiled.

“When I collected these paintings, I really didn’t think that I would have to return them one day.”

She blushed and shook her head.

“No, since they already belong to Second Brother, they still belong to Second Brother.”

“Shen Tangtang, even I belong to you,” he said as he smiled and reminded her, “Not to mention these.”

He had finally waited for her to say “I do”.

Shen Li met his gaze and suddenly thought of something.

“Then this matter…”

“They don’t know,” he said.

This was a secret shared between the two of them.

Gazing at him warmly, she tiptoed to kiss him on the side of his face.

…

“Hahahahahaha!”

A series of loud and clear laughter echoed throughout the Lu family’s mansion.

Old Master Lu’s face was red with excitement.

“This kid has finally succeeded!”

Fang Yunyi continued, “Dad, you have to control yourself when Ah Li comes here for dinner. Don’t put too much pressure on her.”

“Don’t worry! I know that!”

Old Master Lu immediately nodded.

“Ah Li is still young! She has only just been acknowledged by Zhijin and the Gu family. I’m sure they can’t bear to let her go! I’ll ask Ah Li for her opinion when they come and see which would be the most appropriate time for the engagement. Of course, everything will be based on Ah Li’s wishes.”

“That’s what I meant,” Fang Yunyi nodded.

Lu Zheng glanced at Old Master Lu, who was grinning from ear to ear. He then glanced at Fang Yunyi, who had rushed out of the kitchen with a bowl of tofu after hearing the phone call. He raised his eyebrows.

“Then it’s a deal. I’ll do whatever Ah Li wishes.”

“Of course!”

Old Master Lu made a solemn vow.

Fang Yunyi walked back into the kitchen with the bowl of tofu. When she reached the door, she turned around and glanced at Lu Zheng. Her ruby red lips curved up in a smile as she crooned, “Lu Zheng, your son is really lucky.”

…

Shen Li followed Lu Huaiyu to the Lu family home for dinner.

The entire Lu family was there. Even Lu Yuxiao, who had been training with the army and was rarely home.

The atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.

Old Master Lu was especially enthusiastic today.

“Ah Li, try this sweet and sour fish.”

“Thank you, Grandpa Lu,” Shen Li replied.

She had just picked up a piece and placed it in her bowl when she heard Old Master Lu continue to speak.

“This fish originates from Feiyu Bay, and the quality of its flesh is especially good. Speaking of Feiyu Bay, the scenery there is the best in November. Ah Li, would you like to go and see it after your engagement?”

“…”

There was a moment of silence at the table.

It was November now.

Fang Yunyi coughed.

“Ah Li, Grandpa Lu doesn’t mean to rush you and Huaiyu. Do you have classes tomorrow?”

Shen Li shook her head hesitantly.

It was a Sunday tomorrow. If she did not go to the laboratory, she would be quite free.

Fang Yunyi’s eyes lit up,

“Then shall we go out tomorrow? I haven’t taken you to the cheongsam shop that I mentioned to you previously. Also, you’ll need to pick out some matching jewelry…”

The room became even quieter.

In the silence, a cold and solemn voice sounded.

Lu Yuxiao said, “I can ask for leave.”

You could even hear a pin drop.

Lu Huaiyu finally looked at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng looked at Shen Li.

“Ah Li, what do you think?”

Shen Li put down her chopsticks.

“I’m fine with anything.”

Lu Zheng nodded.

“Then let’s meet up later and set the date.”

…

After a series of infighting that Shen Li did not even know about, the date of the engagement was finally set for the 26th of December.

She was nineteen and a half years old.

As for the wedding date, it was finally set for the 17th of August.

It was the day they had first met.

On the day of the engagement party, it started to snow in the Capital.

The hall was filled with people making toasts under the resplendent lights.

Outside the window, the snow was falling.

Shen Li was wearing a magnolia-colored cheongsam with a jade bracelet on her wrist, which made her skin look even fairer and her figure even more graceful.

Lu Huaiyu put down his wine glass and walked over to help her put on her shawl.

“What are you thinking about?”

She turned around, her lips slightly curved up.

“I’m thinking that this is the first snow of this winter.”

Lu Huaiyu tilted his head slightly.

“Then, do you want to know what I’m thinking?”

She shook her head.

He lowered his head and looked into her eyes.

“I’m waiting for summer to come.”

‘Waiting for you to grow up.

‘I’m waiting for the time that I can spend every day with you.’
