Kapitel 206: Chapter 197: Doting Love

He Zhiyao reached beside his pillow and felt for something, his hand touching a hard box.

Inside was the engagement ring he had prepared for his proposal.

The ring was something he'd begun sourcing materials for half a year ago, commissioning a design from a top-tier designer just so it would be ready for the day she fell for him and he could propose.

During his last visit to Ning City, he'd felt her emotions begin to wane, thinking he was finally witnessing her come around to him.

He'd planned to propose once he'd dealt with the matters at hand.

He had set the date for the proposal on her birthday.

To ensure he could propose on that day, he'd used himself as bait to deceive He Linze into being caught, successfully sending Linze to prison.

Eagerly, he had resolved everything.

He knew exactly what was happening with his eyes.
