Chapter 611 WILL YOU MARRY ME?
Chapter 611 WILL YOU MARRY ME?
Somehow Apple felt giddy, although she never imagined she would be proposed to in this way.This was far from what she imagined her evening to be.
Jayden was so attentive tonight, he didn’t seem like the easy going person he tended to be, but also didn’t show that he felt stiff and tense, on the contrary, he looked calm and relaxed, much more mature than his usual self.
This was the side that Apple had just seen from Jayden. He looked very mature and not overdone. He didn’t tease or make jokes that would make Apple laugh out loud. He didn’t do any of that tonight.
However, the conversation between the two of them flowed so smoothly, they shared some things that had never been told between them, such as nostalgia for the past, things they liked, hobbies they used to have.
Light topics but had the potential to make them lose track of time.
Finally, when Apple finished one glass of wine and was about to refill her glass, Jayden held her hand and stopped her from doing so.
”No, I need you to stay conscious today,” Jayden said in a serious tone, as he remembered the two experiences he had been through when Apple was too drunk. And having Apple out of control was the last thing he wanted to happen in his plans tonight.
Apple raised her eyebrows slightly surprised, but then smiled. “Why? You’re afraid I’ll jump into the lake?”
”Not really,” said Jayden. “The thing that stands out the most when you’re drunk is that you turn out to be very seductive and passionate.”
Apple remembered the two incidents when she got drunk. She couldn’t deny Jayden’s words that she did get ‘a little’ naughty when she lost control. You could say she would be more than a bit naughty when alcohol affected her system.
”But if you insist, we can do it on this table,” Jayden said, tapping the table between them, which made Apple’s face turn red.
”Oh, stop teasing me,” Apple grumbled. She thought Jayden would continue his teasing, but no, he just stood up and walked over to her.
”You must already know what I’m going to do and what the point of all this is,” Jayden said, standing in front of Apple and making her bite her lip, waiting for what he would do next.
”I think so.” Apple knew she had ruined the supposed surprise effect at a time like this, but somehow, even though she knew what was going to happen and what Jayden was going to do and what the essence of it all was, she was still happy.
It didn’t diminish her happiness at all.
Apple felt her chest tighten and full as Jayden turned her chair as he stood across from her, looking so handsome and so dignified.
”I think if reincarnation existed and good karma existed, I might have saved the world in my previous life,” Apple muttered, but Jayden could hear it quite clearly.
It sounded a little weird, but that was what Apple felt like.
”If that was really the case, I might have been by your side to save the world because I managed to get to you.”
”I like it…” Apple muttered under her breath.
Jayden smiled and gently stroked Apple’s cheek, saying quietly. “I know there won’t be any more surprise effects for this proposal, but I promise to give you more surprises for the rest of our lives.”
Then, having said all that, Jayden dropped to his knees and pulled out the ring that Apple had known, performed the move she had anticipated and said the words she had been waiting for.
”Will you marry me?”
Apple bit her lip when she actually heard those words. She wasn’t a girl who cried easily, but for some reason, her throat felt tight and her eyes felt hot.
She blinked her eyes and could feel the warm tears falling down her cheeks.
Were these the tears of happiness? She tried to stop them, but couldn’t, she wanted to answer his question, but her voice was heavy, so she nodded and a soft ‘yes’ escaped her trembling lips.
Jayden then took Apple’s hand and put the ring on her finger, indicating that it was her. One more ring and this girl would be his forever.
He then kissed the ring and Apple’s cold hand, before he stood up and hugged the girl who was now crying.
Jayden let Apple cry as long as she wanted, while he rubbed her shoulder and gave her the comfort she needed.
And just at that moment, a series of fireworks lit up the night sky, the sound was so loud, it made Apple flinch a little in surprise.
”Ah, I forgot about this one,” said Jayden, which made Apple chuckle and stand up from her chair, while Jayden still had his arms wrapped around her.
”Beautiful,” said Apple, looking up at the night sky.
”Yes, it’s beautiful,” Jayden replied, looking at the woman beside him.
”I mean the fireworks.”
”Hm, that’s what I meant too,” Jayden replied without taking his eyes off Apple, which made her blush.
”Thank you,” Apple said, tiptoeing and lightly kissing Jayden’s lips, but the man didn’t accept the brief kiss and held her body and deepened their kiss, while the fireworks still lit up the beautiful night sky.
Everything was going according to plan, just as Jayden had imagined and he didn’t think his proposal was a bad idea.
Half an hour later Jayden and Apple left the small stilt house in the middle of the lake to return to the greenhouse.
And now, Apple was back to humming the same tune she hummed when she was drunk a few days ago, staring in awe at her ring, while Jayden was rowing their little boat back to the greenhouse.
”I thought you’d propose to me after you played the piano,” said Apple, still staring at the ring with a sweet smile on her lips. “What made you decide to do it in the middle of the lake?”
”Because I have to have a plan B.”
”Plan B?”
”In case you rejected me, I would have left you there.”
