Wu Chenjin could not help but raise his hand to pinch her soft and tender face. He coaxed her like he was coaxing a child. “I saw a woman as beautiful as you just now.”
“You were actually looking at something else… Hmm…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Wu Chenjin had already leaned to the side and kissed her lips. All the questioning words turned into sobs.
Her face became hotter and hotter. She could feel the warmth of her lower lip in Wu Chenjin’s mouth, and her breathing almost stopped.
After an unknown amount of time, she struggled to push Wu Chenjin away.
“Oh… Wu Chenjin, I, I can’t breathe!”
Wu Chenjin let go of her sweet lips and pressed his forehead against her forehead. He panted heavily and said in a hoarse and low voice, “Song Nuanyi, who am I looking at? Do you really not know?”
Of course, Song Nuanyi knew.
There had never been anyone else in Wu Chenjin’s eyes other than her. She was just deliberately teasing Wu Chenjin and acting like a child.
In the past, she had really quarreled with Wu Chenjin. This was the first time she had acted like a spoiled child, and she had actually received such a punishment. She would never dare to do it again.
Along the way, she blushed and did not speak again. On the contrary, Wu Chenjin glanced at her from time to time and smiled like he was teasing a dog.
When they arrived at the restaurant, it was already dusk outside. The autumn sunset was getting earlier and earlier. Wu Chenjin took off his suit jacket and helped Song Nuanyi put it on.
“Don’t catch a cold.”
Song Nuanyi pinched the lapel of her suit jacket, her heart warm.
The restaurant was very quiet. Wu Chenjin held Song Nuanyi’s hand and slowly walked in.
The rose path that extended from the entrance of the hall led to the stairs. There were flickering candles all around. She recalled the scene where she was buried in the sea of fire, but in the future, that nightmarish day would be replaced by the candles that covered the ground today.
She hoped that she would never dream of the burning flames again. In the future, if she saw any flames, she would think of today.
Wu Chenjin led her through the rose path. When they walked up the stairs, there were still winding starry lights. It was not until they reached the rooftop and the real night fell that she felt a sense of detachment from the dream and return to reality.
No one had ever prepared this meticulously for her. When she saw the sea of roses on the rooftop, she was stunned.
There was a piano standing in the middle of the roses. Wu Chenjin walked to the piano and played a Chopin Liszt ballad. Every piano key touched her heart. Her heart was pounding, hoping that time would stop at this moment.
Wu Chenjin, who was wearing a white shirt, looked at her as he immersed himself in playing the piano. The light beside him shone on him as if it had coated him with a layer of silver light. Song Nuanyi seemed to be enjoying the beautiful scenery as she was intoxicated by Wu Chenjin’s romantic music. She was enjoying the beautiful scene.
After the song ended, Wu Chenjin brought Song Nuanyi to sit down. The waiter pushed her into the dining car and left after setting up the dishes.
Song Nuanyi rested her chin on her hands and looked at Wu Chenjin seriously. She asked, “Wu Chenjin, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you suddenly making so many arrangements?”
Wu Chenjin helped her cut the steak and brought it to her. He smiled and said, “It’s nothing. I just haven’t eaten with you for a long time. I want to make some arrangements.”
Song Nuanyi curled her lips.
“Okay.” She shrugged. “I thought you had something to ask of me.”
At that moment, Song Nuanyi was still showing off proudly. “I’m the number one female entrepreneur in the Capital now. If there’s anything you can’t handle, feel free to look for me. I can reluctantly help you.”
Wu Chenjin gave a nice smile and said mysteriously, “I really have something to ask for Miss Song’s help. I wonder if Miss Song will do me the honor?”
“Oh?” Song Nuanyi was only joking. She did not expect Wu Chenjin to really have a favor to ask of her. As long as Wu Chenjin needed help, Song Nuanyi would help him even if he did not ask for it.
Recently, she had been hearing about changes in the Wu Family’s enterprise. Old Master Wu, who did not show up all year round, even went to the headquarters. She was worried that Wu Chenjin had encountered some trouble.
She stopped joking and asked with a serious face, “Did something happen?”
Wu Chenjin suddenly stood up and walked to Song Nuanyi. Like magic, he took out a small square box and knelt on one knee in front of Song Nuanyi. There was a shocked look on his face.
He opened the red velvet box. Inside was a beautiful diamond ring.
