Xiaobei finished speaking all at once and then lowered his head, nervously afraid to look at Xiumei, holding the brocade box high in his hands.
Xiumei froze, her mind buzzing.
It took a moment for her to understand.
Xiaobei had just proposed to her!
Good heavens! Xiaobei had asked for her hand in marriage!
Xiumei had never thought about it before, not knowing when Xiaobei started to have feelings for her.
Xiumei intended to reject Xiaobei by saying she didn't plan to get married, but as the words came to her lips, an image of the imposing Xu Zhengyong suddenly flashed in her mind...
He was in full armor, carrying an aura of grandeur, his face smudged with dirt, looking weary and travel-worn.
Just as she was thinking, the figure in her mind transformed into the one in front of her—Xu Zhengyong went from her mind to reality, looking straight at her and Xiaobei...
Xu Zhengyong, having a day off, rushed to King Rui Residence to reunite with Wei Ruo and others.
