2268 For the Rest of His Life

And to propose to Shi Xiaoya, he'd even asked Tong Chunian to look up romance novels.

How would Tong Chunian know about such things either?

Even if he wanted to read, he would read those action novels that were filled with hot-blooded scenes where other people were rid of just because they made someone unhappy.

So he could only ask his female colleagues in the company.

It made the female colleagues in the company think that he was becoming effeminate, since he actually came to ask about romance novels.

Tong Chunian could only say that he wanted to know about them to better understand girls and that he was thinking of wooing a girl.

He wanted to read romance novels to understand how exactly do girls think and how to flirt with them.

After all, most of the people who wrote romance novels were also girls.

How to make girls feel very attracted, such a feeling only girls knew best.

So, the female colleagues in the company thought that Tong Chunian had someone he liked.

They all started gossiping and hatching a plan.

Just to get some romance novel titles for Han Zhuoling, Tong Chunian had a feeling that he was selling himself out.

Han Zhuoling read quite a few marriage proposal scenes from the novels.

He still felt that they were not suitable for him and Shi Xiaoya.

"But when I thought about it, I felt that those don't really seem to suit us," Han Zhuoling said. "And I also want to give you a proposal that's different from that of others."

Shi Xiaoya's heart started beating faster and faster as she stared at him nervously.

"It was just perfect that the production team invited us to come and film for the last special episode," Han Zhuoling said. "The two of us can be considered to have confirmed our relationship because of this show. We had a misunderstanding in the first episode, that's why we had a deeper interaction with each other. And afterward, I confessed in the show and we officially got together."

Han Zhuoling said, "The two of us getting together, the whole journey was always linked to this show."

His voice was also warm. On this small garden path under the night sky, it made the slightly chilly night turn a little warmer as well.

"So, I thought that I should propose to you at the moment when the last episode of this show ends," Han Zhuoling said. "Because it was in this show that we got together. This show has a different significance to me. To our acquaintance, to dating, to my marriage proposal. These three major life events, they'll all have happened here."

Han Zhuoling licked his lips twice. In front of Shi Xiaoya, he took two deep breaths.

Suddenly, his lanky figure became shorter.

Shi Xiaoya was stunned for a moment and saw him kneeling on one knee on the small path.

Shi Xiaoya subconsciously wanted to pull Han Zhuoling up.

Even if he was kneeling on one knee, he was still kneeling.

Shi Xiaoya never wanted to see Han Zhuoling like this.

Just that, of course, she could not pull him up.

"Xiaoya, are you willing to marry me?" Han Zhuoling asked. "Let me take care of you, pamper you, and love you."

He once had a marriage.

It was not a happy one, and he did not feel any happiness from it.

But with Shi Xiaoya, this would be his second marriage.

Shi Xiaoya did not mind, but he minded it quite a lot.

On this matter, he felt that Shi Xiaoya was on the losing end and was disadvantaged.

The more he felt like that, the more guilty he was and the more he wanted to treat her well.

In the end, Han Zhuoling said, "Forever and always."

He wanted to be with Shi Xiaoya forever and always.

The marriage this time would be for the rest of his life.

He also knew that as long as he was with Shi Xiaoya, aside from the day he died, there would never be a day when they would be separated.

"The time we've spent together perhaps may not have been long. There isn't any love marathon, not even a year or two have passed," Han Zhuoling said. "But we already know each other well enough, and we don't need to wait for longer to prove that we understand each other."
