After buying everything, Chen Ruo Yu carrying several big and small bags, flowers and balloons returned home with great difficulty. The moment she entered through the door, she threw the bags on the sofa, tied the balloons on the handle behind the door, then arranged the flowers and put them on the coffee table in the living room.
Tilting her head, she looked at it...um...it's very eye-catching. Tomorrow, the moment Meng Gu comes home, he will be able to see it. She put the small card among the flowers and tried to set a beautiful arrangement. After it was done, she took out a pen from her bag and wrote on the card 'Dr. Meng, let's get married!' and drew two big hearts on the card.
She looked at it seriously, felt satisfied and then put the card back into the bouquet of flowers. Tomorrow Meng Gu will get a big surprise.
Next were the balloons. She looked around and decided to get up early tomorrow to put the balloons in the hall and let them float about. In this way, the moment Meng Gu comes in through the door, he will be able to see them. Oh yes, under every balloon she should tie a small note with the words written...'Dr. Meng, let's get married!'
But...in this case, the balloons would have grabbed the limelight from the bouquet of flowers. Once Meng Gu had been surprised by the balloons then he would not have much reaction when he sees the flowers. Chen Ruo Yu bit her lips and began to think seriously.
Well, the flowers still had to be presented first before the balloons. So, the balloons would have to be kept in the bedroom. When Meng Gu comes back, he will first see the flowers in the living room and he will be sure to think that is only it. As soon as he enters the bedroom, there will be a bunch of balloons proposing marriage which will definitely give him a fright.
The more she thought about it, the happier Chen Ruo Yu felt. She took the balloons into the bedroom and began to write the marriage proposal notes. After finishing, she tied the notes with the balloon strings and while she was tying the notes, she hummed a song.
If it's not because I love you, how can there be a joyful mood?
Every happy day, I miss you, miss you, miss you very much
Oh yes, in a little while she would have to go shopping to buy the food that Mr. Tyrannosaurus likes to eat. Tomorrow she will cook a table full of food for him, then she will put a note in the bowl with the words 'Dr. Meng, let's get married.' and deliberately ask him to get a bowl for dinner, so he will be able to see it.
Chen Ruo Yu could not control herself from smiling. She felt she was really smart for being able to trick stupid Dr. Meng. Although she was unable to buy a ring, tomorrow he will surely be touched! Let women demonstrate to the men the true meaning of sentimental feelings and romance.
While Chen Ruo Yu was writing the notes in her hand, she continued to sing her song.
Love is something that shines, illuminating me and illuminating you.
Both of us are steady, sweetness stays with us until we grow old.
Aiya...this new version of the lyrics that rolled out of her mouth sounded good. Later she will have to remember to note it down in her little book.
Continue to sing, continue to sing
If it's not because I love you...
This time, just as she started to sing the song, suddenly it seemed she heard someone singing in the living room and it was this song... the song she was now singing...
'If it's not because I love you, how will I be downstairs waiting for you?'
'Waiting for a long time, I still can't see you, I miss you, miss you, I want to see you.'
'If it's not for loving you, how will I come to pick you up after work?'
'The cars on the road are many and crowded, I miss you, miss you, I want to see you.'
'Love is something that torments people, a mistake due to a strange combination of factors made me angry.'
'Must not feel anxious while driving, thinking about you in my heart.'
Chen Ruo Yu was stunned and stood up. It was Meng Gu's voice singing ~ 'I want to come to look for Chen Ruo Yu.'
Her heart was beating like a drum and she ran out of the room but there was no one in the living room. Instead, there was a beautiful gift box placed next to her bouquet of flowers and in the box was a brand new cell phone. The cell phone was shining brightly showing an incoming call.
When did this thing appear? Just now it was obviously not there.
She picked up the phone and saw the caller's photo and Meng Gu's number. The ringtone of the phone was the song 'I want to come to look for Chen Ruo Yu.'
Liar! He said he could not sing!
Her eyes began to heat up and her hands were shaking. She pressed the answer button and heard Meng Gu's voice. "Chen Ruo Yu, raise your head."
What was there to see?
Chen Ruo Yu looked up and saw a picture hanging on the wall behind the sofa. When was this hung up? She did not even know.
This time, Chen Ruo Yu burst into tears.
In that painting on the wall was Mr. Peach Blossom Forest, that familiar peach forest, that familiar back view. That was a very familiar back, wearing a big white coat, with short hair, in suit pants and leather shoes....that was her Dr. Meng.
In the painting, opposite Dr. Meng, there was a low-lying peach tree and on the horizontal branch of the tree sat a woman holding a peach blossom stem. On the stem, a peach blossom was blooming and that woman was also very familiar, so familiar that it was impossible not to recognize her and that woman was herself.....Chen Ruo Yu.
In the painting, she was sitting on the branch holding a peach blossom stem and the modern day version of Mr. Peach Blossom Forest was hugging her in his arms. They were very sweet and they were kissing.
Chen Ruo Yu covered her mouth, her tears fell like the rain, and in a blur she saw a line of words in antique characters on the painting... Peach blossoms in the thousands but only one is chosen.
So hateful, too hateful! How can there be such a hateful man?! He had unexpectedly given her a fright. Obviously, she had wanted to surprise him but how did he manage to do it first? Too hateful!
Chen Ruo Yu cried out loudly.
On the balcony, someone pushed the door opened and walked in. She was hugged from behind and a voice said. "Miss Chen Ruo Yu, will you marry me?"
She turned around and hugged Meng Gu, crying even louder. While she cried, she asked. "Why are you back so early? Obviously, you told me you will only be back tomorrow."
"My flight was actually scheduled today but I lied to you and told you it is tomorrow. All the while I didn't mention anything about our marriage because this gift was not ready yet."
He turned her around and let her look at the painting. "I searched on the internet for a long time before I found the painter who did this painting. I contacted her and asked her to do a painting for me. The contents should show Mr. Peach Blossom Forest as a doctor and his Miss Peach Blossom Stem. I also specifically took a photo of my back to give to her and also chose a photo of you to give her. Look, isn't the painting beautiful?"
At this time, Chen Ruo Yu was crying tearfully. She could not see clearly and could only desperately nod her head.
"Then will you marry me?" He asked as he held her hand and slipped a ring onto her finger.
The size was correct! Chen Ruo Yu was dumbstruck and stared blankly at the ring.
Meng Gu knew what she was thinking and explained it to her. "I took your measurement while you were sleeping. You always sleep like a pig, no matter how much I move you around, you won't wake up."
Making a comparison of her with pigs did not even make her a little happy at all, okay? But Chen Ruo Yu decided to generously forgive him since she was still very touched by him. She turned around and hugged him tightly.
Her reaction made Meng Gu very happy. He also hugged her tightly and smiled. "Look, I am also romantic and considerate, right? I know you don't like the bouquet of human bones model as a proposal gift, so I changed it to something that you like. Are you happy?"
Chen Ruo Yu nodded.
"Regarding this matter of pursuit, I am one step behind you. This marriage proposal was nearly snatched away by you. Chen Ruo Yu, you are really outrageous. This kind of thing is best left for the man to do. Why did you take the initiative to do this? You have to practice more restraint, do you understand?"
She nodded. She actually did not want to be the first one to propose marriage but it was because he was too slow.
"At this time, after I had proposed marriage, what should you do?"
Say.....I'm willing! Say...Yes! What else is there to say?!
Meng Gu was full of confidence and smiled, waiting for her to answer. But he did not expect his Chen Ruo Yu would actually have words other than 'I'm willing' and 'Yes' to say.
"Dr. Meng, let me tell you. The song 'I want to come to look for Chen Ruo Yu.' is out of date. I just thought of a new version of lyrics that is more in line with our current status. I strongly request that you sing that new version for me to listen."
Meng Gu's smile stiffened on his face and his head began to smoke. "Chen Ruo Yu, is your skin itchy again?"
Did she know how difficult it was for him to record this song 'I want to come to look for Chen Ruo Yu.'? He had to secretly copy the lyrics from her book and also seriously learn the tunes. Then he had to find a recording studio to record this song more than a dozen times until he got it right and the recording technician had laughed at him several times. And now she has a new version?!
Was she looking for death?!
"Dr. Meng, I really want to listen."
"Chen Ruo Yu, say you are willing."
"Then you will sing?"
"Say you're willing!"
"Sing it!"
"Say you're willing to marry! Hurry up!"
"The melody is the same, only the lyrics are changed."
Finally, Tyrannosaurus became impatient, he lowered his head and used his mouth to block the mouth of Miss Peach Blossom Stem.
What about the wedding?
Of course, there was no running away!
Love is something that shines, illuminating me and illuminating you.
Both of us are steady, sweetness stays with us until we grow old.
