Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The night was silent.

Wen Yanqing couldn’t sleep.

Joy surged through his heart. His heart seemed to be undulating in spring water, constantly creating ripples.

He was so ecstatic that his heart could hardly contain the sweet joy. He caressed her long wavy hair and gazed at her sleeping face. His eyes were filled with deep affection, and the love was so strong that it couldn’t be melted.

Shi Jun sent a birthday red envelope as usual. Wen Yanqing was afraid of disturbing Lin Gantang’s rest, so he muted his phone and opened the red packet.

Seeing that he was there, Shi Jun sent a message saying. “Aren’t you celebrating your birthday with your girlfriend? You have time to look at your phone at this hour?”

“She’s tired; asleep now.”

“D*mn!*

Why was he so talkative? He had to spew nonsense.

“Are you happy now? You were still drinking with me at this time last year,” Shi Jun said.

Wen Yanqing smiled. “I’m happy.”

“Then what are you still thinking about? Wouldn’t you be happier if you propose and marry her?” Shi Jun nagged, “Even I’m feeling anxious on your behalf. You should take action while she likes you. Otherwise, who knows what will happen in the future?”

“Proposed.”

Shi Jun still wanted to say that his dilly-dallying wasn’t appropriate, but he was shocked when he suddenly received a ‘proposed’ from him.

He quickly asked, “Agreed?”

“Agreed.”

“So that means the proposal was successful? That Lin Gantang is quite straightforward, so why did you hesitate before? You should have proposed long ago.” Shi Jun was gratified. “Good, you’re finally taking action.”

“No, she proposed.”

Shi Jun was speechless.

Shi Jun read the message four or five times before confirming that he was not mistaken.

No wonder he said he agreed. It was impossible for Wen Yanqing to reject it!

“This is too surprising.” Shi Jun was impressed. “I didn’t expect this at all.”

After all, when had Wen Yanqing not taken the initiative when it came to the two of them?

Wen Yanqing lowered his eyes. “Back then, you asked me why she would not take a single step for me even though I had already taken 99 steps in this relationship. What were you trying to imply?”

Previously, he had replied sadly that it was okay. He was willing to take the last step.

Now Wen Yanqing smiled faintly. “But she has taken the last step. Shi Jun, do you think it’s worth it now?”

Finally, he was no longer the one who had to wait for her to turn around, and he was no longer the one who chased after her again and again, filled with anticipation, hopelessness, and sadness.

She slowly walked towards him, like flowers blooming all the way, warmly touching his heart.

Shi Jun fell silent.

“I take back what I said about her before, if possible.” Shi Jun was a little moved. “She must have fallen in love with you. That’s why she’s willing to do what you should have done.”

That was not the only thing that touched him. Wen Yanqing’s eyes were filled with gentleness when he thought of the love letters that he had lovingly kept.

She must have spent a lot of time preparing for today’s surprise.

She said that she did not know how to be romantic, but he felt that nothing could be more romantic.

“I’m really happy for you.” Shi Jun said, “Although you’ve waited for many years, you’ve finally gotten the ending you wanted.”

“Yes, most people in the world are not as lucky as me.”

Shi Jun smiled. “Because there aren’t many people in the world like you who are willing to wait forever. Congratulations, you don’t have to date for the rest of your life. Lin Gantang didn’t disappoint you.”

Wen Yanqing looked at the person he loved beside him.

What disappointment?

If he couldn’t wait, then he would wait a little longer. She would eventually get tired from walking.

He definitely wouldn’t have let go first, unless he died of old age or illness, causing him to leave this world.
