Chu Xuhua led Shen Ruyue to the stable…
Fu Bao and Hou Fu were sleeping in the stable. With their eyes narrowed, they looked very at peace.
In front of the stable, Chu Xuhua held Shen Ruyue's shoulders and asked her very seriously, "Ruyue, I want to marry you. I'll treat you well. Are you willing to marry me?"
Shen Ruyue looked up at Chu Xuhua's eyes. Those eyes were bright and filled with her reflection. When she saw this, her eyes suddenly teared up.
"Xuhua, I've been waiting for you to say this for a long time."
Chu Xuhua's heart skipped a beat and he pulled Shen Ruyue into his arms. "I'm sorry for making you wait for so long. It's my fault."
He said gently, "Ruyue, the first time I saw you, I felt that you were so beautiful that I didn't dare to look at you directly. After I got to know you, I felt that you were so capable, literate, could help Fifth Sister, and knew so many things…"
