Chapter 1573: The End (4)

“He has his own considerations. Perhaps he has some difficulties.” Shi Xi had already regained her rationality and her tone was calm and indifferent.

“Do you want to go back and listen?” Xie Yunzhou pretended to be relaxed. “When I came out, I saw Auntie and Mr. Tao crying. I’m sure they have many reasons.”

Shi Xi smiled and reached out to hug Xie Yunzhou tightly.

Xie Yunzhou hugged the girl’s waist and comforted her softly, “I’m still here.”

“You lied to me with them,” Shi Xi said in a muffled voice.

“At that time, they hadn’t reconciled. I didn’t want you to be stuck in the middle.” Xie Yunzhou recalled the bad experience, but his tone became even gentler. “If the relationship between parents is not good, the child will suffer the most.”

Shi Xi: “Let me tell you a secret.”

XieYunzhou: “Yeah.”

Shi Xi: “My parents don’t like me.”

Xie Yunzhou patted the girl’s back, not asking if it was the Shi parents or Hua Wenyin or Tao Boli.

“I like you.” Xie Yunzhou’s voice was low and gentle. “I’ll always like you the most.”

The girl hugged him, her tears soaking his clothes.

Everyone thought that she was the apple of the Shi family’s eye, but she felt that the Shi family’s love for her was like a sword of Damocles hanging over her head, constantly reminding her that these things did not really belong to her.

After her arrival, the peaceful days were no longer there. Life was full of ups and downs.

When she arrived at the Hua family, Hua Wenyin’s initial love for Hua Ruoling had calmed Shi Xi’s heart. She had only accepted the fact that she had a mother.

“I like you too.” Shi Xi let go of him, her red eyes filled with seriousness and determination. “I’ll always like you the most.”

Golden light shone on the two of them.

Xie Yunzhou’s heart skipped a beat. “Will you marry me?”

Shi Xi was slightly stunned.

In a daze, Xie Yunzhou had already knelt down on one knee. He held her hand and repeated, “Shi Xi, marry me.”

But this time, it was not a question.

Shi Xi’s tears turned into a smile. “Is your proposal that simple?”

There were no witnesses, no diamond rings, no flowers, and no fireworks.

“The diamond ring is in my coat pocket,” Xie Yunzhou said helplessly.

His coat was draped over Shi Xi.

Shi Xi touched the jewelry box in his pocket.

Xie Yunzhou: “Wearing it means that you agree.”

Shi Xi glanced at him and opened the box.

The blue diamond was especially dazzling, lighter than the color of the sea.

The carved patterns were like a stream. They rotated slightly, like a flowing stream.

Xie Yunzhou took out the ring.

Shi Xi saw that there was a picture of a cloud and a stream on the ring.

Drifting clouds and streams, you are my only chance.

“Put it on for me.” Shi Xi reached out her hand, agreeing to Xie Yunzhou’s proposal.

Xie Yunzhou put the ring on her finger and kissed the back of her hand.

“I originally wanted to plan a proposal.” Xie Yunzhou looked at the surface of the sea. “I feel that this place isn’t bad either.”

There was the sea and sunlight.

Sometimes there was a stream.

Shi Xi’s eyes curved. She did not want to go backyet. Looking at the vast sea, she asked, “Walk for a while?”

“Alright.”

The two of them interlocked their fingers and chatted on the beach.

Shi Xi had thought that agreeing to marry Xie Yunzhou would make her feel restrained.

However, after she agreed, she could only feel happy.

Xie Yunzhou was also in a good mood, and even his footsteps were relaxed.

After Shi Xi was tired from walking, he carried her on his back and walked back.

The two pairs of footprints on the beach were washed away by the seawater.

Only a pair of footprints were left behind.

The waves turned over and the footprints were washed away again.
