190 The Proposal Is Different From What I Thought
The atmosphere was diverted. The five of them stared at each other, and an inexplicable awkwardness spread between them. It was not good for Luo Feng to propose under such circumstances, so the reserved fireworks ribbons were all put aside.
Father and Mother Luo didn’t know what to do, so they simply pulled Ai Zhaojiang to sit down.
Ai Tingya curled up into a ball stiffly. She wanted to die when she thought about how her elders had heard her alluring conversation just now. Moreover, when she thought about how the older generation was more traditional, would Mother Luo think that she was an indecent girl?
She regretted it so much that her intestines turned green. The perfect image that she had painstakingly built in the past had collapsed overnight…
!!
Luo Feng sat beside Ai Tingya. Seeing that she was about to crawl under the table, he hurriedly gave Mother Luo a look.
Mother Luo understood and pretended that nothing had happened. She handed over a box. “Tingya, happy birthday. This is a gift your uncle and I chose for you.”
Ai Tingya finally looked up and carefully took the box. She whispered, “Thank you, Auntie and Uncle.”
“Open it. Do you like it?”
Ai Tingya opened the box and saw a lake-blue dress with a circle of unique embroidery on the waist. She liked it at first glance, but at this moment, there was only the awkwardness from before.
“I like it very much. Thank you, Auntie.” She turned into a heartless thank-you machine.
Mother Luo revealed a benevolent smile and pulled Ai Tingya’s hand. “I’m waiting for you to call me Mom.”
When Ai Tingya heard this, a trace of shock flashed across her eyes and she heaved a sigh of relief. She understood that Mother Luo was comforting her, indicating that she would not have other thoughts because of her bold statement.
Instead, they looked forward to becoming a family.
Ai Zhaojiang also heard it and did not feel that his granddaughter was doing anything wrong. He blamed Luo Feng for everything.
If not for the fact that he had charmed Ai Tingya, how could a good girl be so bold! No matter how he thought about it, this was all Luo Feng’s fault!
They barely chatted for a while more. The three of them did not sit for long.
The atmosphere was not in place after all, and the awkwardness had not dissipated. It was really not a good time to propose.
“You guys are tired today. Rest early. We’ll go back first.” Father and Mother Luo stood up and gave the young people some time to themselves.
When Ai Zhaojiang was about to leave, he wanted to bring Ai Tingya with him but he was very unwilling to be pulled away by Father and Mother Luo.
Ai Tingya and Luo Feng sent the three of them to the door.
As soon as the door closed, Ai Tingya slid to the ground and panted, looking like she wanted to die.
She covered her face and said sadly, “Boohoo, how can I see Uncle and Auntie in the future? And Grandpa… I’m so shameless… Oh my god…”
“How can you be shameless?” Luo Feng comforted her. “We’re all adults.”
Ai Tingya looked up and said angrily, “Hmph! It’s all your fault. Why didn’t you tell me they were here!”
Luo Feng scratched his face. “I just wanted to give you a surprise.”
Ai Tingya covered her ears. “I don’t care! I don’t care! It’s all your fault!”
She did not need to explain now. She needed comfort. If she traced back to the source, it was because Luo Feng had given her a Ferrari that Ai Tingya wanted to return a gift to him. She would never want such a precious gift again!
Luo Feng coaxed her, but Ai Tingya did not fall for it.
Seeing that Ai Tingya was about to dig up old scores again, Luo Feng had a flash of inspiration and pretended to say casually, “I didn’t say anything because I originally planned to propose to you today.”
He took out the diamond ring box and placed it on the table, indicating that he was not lying.
“Hmph, even if you say that…” Ai Tingya paused and looked at the ring on the table with wide eyes. “E-Engagement?!”
“That’s right. They’re all here to bring up the atmosphere. They wanted to wait for me to propose successfully before they came out.”
“…” Ai Tingya stood rooted to the ground.
She seemed to have spoilt something very important…
Luo Feng picked up the box and played with it. He sighed and said, “Looks like I can only wait for the next opportunity.”
He eliminated all kinds of potential risks that would hinder him. Who would have thought that Ai Tingya would be so bold tonight? All the good things on both sides had turned into bubbles.
Ai Tingya was speechless. Everything was inappropriate!
She had to think of a way to save it!
Ai Tingya looked at the box in Luo Feng’s hand enviously. Her eyes were about to stick to it. Her small hand sneakily rubbed over, wanting to touch the ring she had dreamed of.
Luo Feng saw her a cheap shot and a cheap trick from the corner of his eye and calmly placed the box back on the table.
Ai Tingya carefully touched it with anticipation. She covered the box with her hand and turned her head to see Luo Feng’s reaction. Luo Feng only used his peripheral vision to look and turned his head to the side, pretending not to care.
She smiled triumphantly and quietly opened the box. Inside lay a shiny diamond ring.
Ai Tingya took the ring and put it on her finger happily.
The diamond ring was custom-made by Luo Feng according to the dimension of Ai Tingya’s finger. It was just right.
Ai Tingya had been dreaming about this moment for a long time. Even though she was a little unwilling to recall the interlude, she was still happy at this moment. She held the ring and could not bear to part with it.
The corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably. She looked up and met Luo Feng’s gaze. He was looking over with a mischievous smile.
Ai Tingya immediately put down her hands and said with a straight face, “Why are you looking at me!”
“You set this up yourself.”
“No way! I… I’m just trying it on.”
Luo Feng held her hand that was wearing the ring and rubbed the dazzling diamonds. “This is an engagement ring. Wearing it means that you’re willing to marry me. It’s useless to go back on your word.”
“Who wants to marry you…” Ai Tingya retracted her hand shyly, and the blush on her face burned to her ears. “I’m just curious… And… And won’t it be a waste if no one wears it?”
She looked away at the leftovers on the table.
That’s right! She was afraid of wasting, not eager to get married!
“It’s not a waste.” Luo Feng smiled evilly.
...
“You! I’ll just return it to you!” Ai Tingya could not help but want to take off the ring.
Luo Feng pulled her into his arms and whispered into Ai Tingya’s ear, “Ai Tingya, are you willing to marry me?”
Ai Tingya lowered her head and did not speak. She nodded so lightly that it was almost impossible to tell.
Luo Feng deliberately teased her. “Huh? You’re unwilling if you don’t speak? Then return the ring to me first.”
“Why should I return it to you!” Ai Tingya raised her head and protested. “You still want to take back what you put on me!”
“I thought you were unwilling if you didn’t speak,” Luo Feng said aggrievedly.
“Yes! I’m willing!” Ai Tingya mustered her courage and shouted.
She looked at Luo Feng’s expression and knew that he was teasing her on purpose. However, she was afraid that he would really save the proposal for the next time.
