Endless Fall

240 Six Point Twenty-Nine Carats

When they returned to Red Maple Forest, all the circles in Lin City knew about the drone proposal.

Even the group chat was discussing it.

Yilan: “Picture.”

Yilan: “Look at how romantic his proposal is. Learn from him.”

!!
Shen Yue: “@Ye, she’s hinting at you.”

Landlord: “Are you guys proposing? @Zhou Yanshen, @Pei Zhi”

Ye: “@Shen Yue, got it.”

Yue: “It’s not Zhou Yanshen. I’m at home with him.”

Wild Cricket: “Picture.”

He posted a picture to tell them who was proposing.

In an instant, everyone tagged Pei Zhi and Lin Jiao. After congratulating them, they set a time to gather together.

Pei Zhi set the time to Friday evening. After confirming the location, he led Lin Jiao into the bathroom.

He pressed against her soft body and listened to her intermittent moans.

Under the dim yellow light, the diamond ring emitted a hazy glow.

Lin Jiao hugged his neck like a vine. She could not bear to let go even when she lay on the soft blanket.

She took two sips of the water he fed her and pursed her lips. “Hubby, when are we going to register our marriage?”

“June 20.”

“Alright.” Lin Jiao stroked his sexy Adam’s apple, her eyes curved. “Have you told your parents about the proposal?”

“I did.” He turned off the night light at the head of the bed and pulled her into his arms. “I’ll arrange for our families to meet next Saturday.”

He had always been reliable. Lin Jiao trusted him with everything and slowly fell asleep in his arms.

The temperature rose again on Friday. Even though they were gathered in the summer resort, they could still feel the heat wave in the air.

The cicadas hiding in the grass and trees let out high-pitched cries, covering the sound of footsteps.

Chu Yuzhou established a relationship with Tang Ni last Wednesday. When they appeared together, they were filled with a love vibe.

He held her hand and sat down. “Brother Pei, when do you plan to hold the wedding?”

“At the end of the year.” Pei Zhi handed him a cigarette. “About November or December.”

“Where?”

“I’m not sure yet. We’ll decide next Saturday with our families.”

Lin Jiao leaned on his shoulder. Hearing them talk about the wedding, her heart felt like it was wrapped in spring water.

The ring on her ring finger attracted Pei Yilan, who was holding Jiang Ye’s hand. “Jiaojiao, how many carats is this diamond ring?”

“Six point twenty-nine carats.”

“Isn’t that your birthday?” She touched the diamond, her almond-shaped eyes filled with envy.

“Yes.” It was also the day when Pei Zhi fell in love with her.

Lin Jiao and Pei Zhi looked at each other and could not stop smiling.

She interlocked her fingers with his and caressed the veins on the back of his hand.

Pei Zhi’s gaze landed on Qu Shao. “Ask Shen Yi and the others where they are.”

Qu Shao sent a message in the group chat. After getting a reply, he told them and picked up the menu to take a look.

In less than five minutes, a few figures appeared in the private room one after another, making the atmosphere even livelier.

“The pool nearby looks pretty good.” Shen Yi picked up a piece of brisket and put it in his mouth. “Shall we go for a swim tonight?”

“Sure.”

“Do they have swimsuits here?”

“I think so.” Pei Zhi put on disposable gloves and peeled off the shell of the crayfish. He placed the prawn meat in a porcelain bowl.

“Hubby, stop peeling.” Lin Jiao tugged at his sleeve and put food into his bowl. “I’ll just eat two.”

He slowly took off his gloves. Qu Shao, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly sighed. “It must feel good to be loved.”

“Do you want me to introduce someone to you?” Zhou Yanshen took two sips of cold beer and raised an eyebrow at him.

“Forget it. I can’t handle women from the entertainment industry.”

“How about a nurse?” Qian Yue swallowed the pork belly in her mouth. “There are a lot of single nurses in our hospital.”

“Brother Yi, why don’t you get into a relationship?”

“He has high standards.”

“It’s because fate hasn’t arrived yet.” Shen Yi never admitted that he had high standards.
