Chapter 465: A Lifetime Commitment

Time soon came to the evening and the street lights were all on.

Few people can be seen on the street, it looks very deserted! Occasionally, there will be a few cars whizzing past, hurriedly driving in the direction of home!

At this time, people have gone home, or are sitting by the warm fireplace and chatting with their families, or in the fragrant restaurant, busy preparing for Thanksgiving dinner!

Snowflakes floated in the sky again and fell from the sky like goose feathers, adding a bit of beauty to this festive night and making this night even more moving!

When the turkey that has been roasted for three hours is out, the most important Thanksgiving dinner of the year, which Americans value most, begins, as is the case with Betty's house.

The food has been all over the table and everyone is sitting around the table.

But unlike previous years, there was one more person at the Walters' Thanksgiving dinner this year and that was Ye Tian.

He and Betty sat side by side at the dining table. At the head of the table was the owner of the family, Matthew and opposite Betty and Ye Tian are Evelyn and Logan. Everyone was smiling and in a good mood!

This is a perfect Thanksgiving for everyone at the table and it's worth celebrating with a toast!

The dinner was about to begin and Ye Tian quickly glanced at the food on the table.

The main dish is, of course, roast turkey. It is served in a rectangular baking dish. It is very large and weighs more than a dozen catties by visual inspection. It is more than enough to feed a dozen people!

After three hours of careful roasting, the skin of this turkey has been roasted to a dark brown, exuding a rich aroma, which is very attractive!

This is the traditional main course of American Thanksgiving, it is essential!

When the prayers before the meal are over, Matthew, the head of the family, will cut the turkey into slices for everyone.

Then, everyone pours in the prepared marinade and they can enjoy this turkey meal!

Judging from the color of the roasted turkey and the attractive aroma it emits, the taste of this roasted turkey must be very delicious!

Even Ye Tian, ​​who has never been interested in turkey meat, is looking forward to this delicacy now!

In addition to the main course, there are many side dishes on the table.

The golden pumpkin pie is the favorite of every woman and is called the best beauty food by the majority of people. Ye Tian also likes this dish!

Stir-fried mushrooms with onions, this is a very common dish on the American Thanksgiving table. It is simple but delicious, tough on the outside and tender on the inside, with a strong fragrance.

Sauce broccoli, sweet potato, apple pie, vegetable salad, red plum moss jam, homemade bread, etc., there are a dozen dishes, which are filled with the entire table, very hearty!

There is also indispensable red wine!

Of course, it can't be the white horse from 1947 and Matthew would never bring that bottle of wine to the table! It's a bottle of red wine from Napa, California. It's not bad too!

"Everyone stretch out your hands, let's pray before the meal!"

Matthew said with a smile and stretched out his hands to hold Evelyn and Betty's hands.

Let's do as the locals do!

Ye Tian gently held Betty's hand and extended his other hand to Logan, who was opposite and joined the family's pre-dinner prayer ceremony.

Everyone closed their eyes, dropped their heads slightly and said nothing.

Then, Matthew's prayer began to come.

"Thank God, thank you for letting us get together on this special day... Amen!"

"Amen!"

At the end everyone said together, including Ye Tian.

After praying, everyone raised their heads and opened their eyes and the dinner officially began.

Matthew stood up, picked up the knife and started to cut the turkey, and distributed it to everyone.

Soon, the dinner plate in front of everyone had content, with a few more fragrant pieces of turkey.

"My dear, you can add marinade to the turkey meat, sprinkle with salt and eat it!"

Betty reminded softly, In case Ye Tian didn't understand.

"Thank you, I know what to do. Although we Chinese don't eat turkey very much, I have been used to eating turkey on Thanksgiving Day in the United States for so many years!"

Ye Tian smiled and said in a low voice, ready to enjoy the food in front of him.

"It's time to start, I wish you all a happy meal!"

Matthew's voice came again.

When Ye Tian brought the first piece of turkey meat into his mouth, a rich and delicious taste immediately spread from the tip of his tongue and all the taste buds in his mouth began to bloom instantly and he could experience the wonderful taste!

It tastes really good! A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Tian's eyes.

The other three people at the table watched him, watching his reaction after tasting the dish.

"Steven, how about grilled turkey? Does it suit your appetite? These dishes are no better than your Chinese food. They don't have such a long history, nor are they so profound, but I still hope you like them!"

Evelyn asked with a smile, acting a little eagerly.

As a housewife, she certainly hopes that the food she cooks will be appreciated, especially the praise from the guests, which is a kind of affirmation!

"Very delicious, this is a world delicacy, Mrs. Walter, your cooking is very good, this is the best roast turkey I have ever tasted, it's so memorable!"

Ye Tian immediately offered a series of compliments, quite eloquent.

"Hahaha"

The rest of the people at the table laughed.

...

After the dinner was over, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Everyone returned to the living room, ready to sit down and chat, watch TV and spend the rest of the evening.

Walking to the edge of the living room, Ye Tian whispered to Betty:

"Honey, I'll go upstairs to get something and I'll be down soon!"

"OK! Go ahead!"

Betty responded and didn't think much.

Then Ye Tian turned upstairs and Betty and her family sat in the living room chatting.

About two or three minutes later, Ye Tian got down from the upper floor and walked into the living room.

He didn't sit down on the sofa, but went straight to Betty, took her by the hand and took her from the sofa.

Then, under everyone's puzzled gaze, he knelt down on one knee and at the same time looked up affectionately at the beautiful girlfriend in front of him.

Betty was silly, her eyes widened and she looked at Ye Tian in disbelief.

The other three are the same, all with a dumbfounded expression, their eyes are round looking at Ye Tian who is kneeling on one knee and Betty with a dull face!

The shock passed quickly and happiness followed immediately!

In the next second, Betty immediately stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, in case she could not control her emotions and cheered in surprise, destroying the extremely romantic scene and atmosphere in front of her.

In her eyes, there were already a few tears, which were about to flow down her cheeks.

At this moment, Betty is completely immersed in the vast ocean of happiness, extremely sweet!

She had imagined this scene countless times, various scenes, various locations and times, as well as a romantic atmosphere! This is the moment she dreams of!

However, she did not expect that this romantic scene would happen at her home in Boston and it was in front of her family. It was too unreal!

The most important thing is that it all came so fast, so suddenly, people are a little caught off guard!

Matthew and Evelyn also didn't expect this scene to happen. Steven this guy is really a deviant and unusual way!

It is unheard of to propose marriage in front of his girlfriend's family!

At the same time, they felt extremely warm in their hearts.

As a parent, it is such a happy thing to be able to witness the most important moments in their daughter's life with their own eyes!

Just when Betty's mind was in confusion and a little dizzy happy, the most important moment came!

Ye Tian took out a red jewelry box from his jacket pocket, reached out to hold Betty's slender hand and said softly:

"My dear, we have been together for some time, although it is not long, but it is enough for us to understand each other, understand each other's preferences, character, etc.!

We have already lived in each other's hearts, inseparable! I love you deeply, dear Betty, I believe you are the same and love me deeply!

It's time for our relationship to go one step further, as I said before, in the near future, you will be my fiancée and will be my wife!

The reason why I choose to propose here in front of your parents is to let them witness all this. This may not be romantic enough, but I think this is the most appropriate choice.

In the future life, I want to spend time with you hand in hand, sharing happiness and sorrow, harvest and joy together! Share every moment of life! Darling, would you marry me?"

These words Ye Tian said were extremely emotional and extremely firm.

His eyes are always looking at Betty's eyes, full of strong love and it can't be turned away!

Speaking of the end, he snapped open the jewelry box in his hand.

In the next instant, a diamond ring immediately appeared in front of Betty and in front of the others.

At the top of this diamond ring is a huge pink diamond, which emits an extremely bright light against the background of the light! Dazzling! Decorating the entire living room into a pink world.

"Oh my God! What a big pink diamond, it's so beautiful!"

Logan exclaimed, staring at the diamond ring in the jewelry box dumbfounded, his eyes almost exploded!

Matthew and Evelyn were completely dull, shocked and extremely happy!

The shock was because of the diamond ring in Ye Tian's hand. It was a dove egg size pink diamond. Who wouldn't be shocked when they saw it?

Happiness is because of what Ye Tian said.

It is the happiest thing for them to witness their daughter being proposed by someone and to be so solemn and sincere, far exceeding the value of that dove egg size pink diamond!

Steven is so sweet, impeccable!

But at this time Betty, tears streaming down her face, staring at Ye Tian very affectionately, her eyes full of affection!

Of course, she also saw the dove egg size pink diamond, her eyes were already obsessed!

What a charming ring, what a charming moment, everything is perfect!

Ye Tian is still kneeling on one knee, holding the huge dove egg size pink diamond ring, looking at Betty affectionately, waiting for the answer.
