Snake slowly released Gu Mengmeng and did not trap her in his arms anymore. He just held onto her hand and went down on one of his knees. Looking up at Gu Mengmeng, he said, "Twomeng, I mentioned before that I will only propose once in my lifetime. Marry me, alright?"
"The illusion you talked about earlier...."
Snake smiled, maintaining his position of kneeling one of his knees on the ground as he said, "Your appearance here signifies that the doors of time and space have opened...this is your original world, your family and friends are here. If you're willing to return to this world, these 19 years I spent here will become your memory and I'll make you live life in happiness forever. But if...…if you still want to return to the Beast World, everything here will become an illusion, a dream I made using 19 years of my life."
Snake opened the ring box. A pair of snake-shaped matching rings was lying quietly inside, two snakes sharing a gallbladder.
