Chapter 135: Ruan Meow Meow: Almost Got A Wife
This was a trip on a whim. At noon, Ruan Jinghong landed on the ground in a daze, and was led by Wen Jin to the hotel to put her luggage. In the afternoon, the two went to the beach for a walk.
It was late autumn, but the beach is still warm.
Looking around, a strange landscape formed by sea erosion can be seen. In the distance, there are huge rocks, like a castle made of stones.
Surrounded by water and rocks, the buildings are rugged and the view is endless.
Now is the off season for tourism, and it's difficult to see other tourists around.
Being in such a beautiful scenery always brings a pleasant mood. Ruan Jinghong didn't mind that Wen Jin "abducted" her without a word.
The two put on slippers and stepped into the sand holding hands.
The sand is soft and warm, and there is a kind of comfort when stepping into it.
The place where Ruan Jinghong grew up was full of land, and now it is rare to have the opportunity to get close to the sea, and she felt a sense of freshness in her heart.
She walked very slowly, and the surrounding scenery was so quiet and beautiful that she wanted to savor it.
Especially the shining seashells scattered all over the ground, they were so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off them.
Wen Jin squatted down following her gaze, picked out the largest and most complete shell, washed it in sea water, and dried it.
She put the cleaned shells on her lips and whispered, then brought them to Ruan Jinghong's ear, and said softly, "Listen."
The warm breeze blew from the direction of the seashells, causing Ruan Jinghong's fair ears to twitch. It was clearly the sound of the wind, but she felt as if she heard something else.
The autumn wind is like a girl's slender hands, lightly brushing their long hair together.
With fine sand under her feet, warm wind beside her, and whispers in her ears, Ruan Jinghong seemed to be wrapped in softness all over her body, and the atmosphere was just right.
There was a throbbing in her heart for no reason, and one hand quietly reached for the pocket containing the ring.
At that time, buying the ring in the mall was just a spur of the moment, and she was not ready to propose marriage.
It's just that after buying the ring, the originally vague thoughts quickly became clear and concrete.
In the past few days, whenever she saw Wen Jin's beautiful and doting face, her thoughts would unconsciously drift to the ring that carried the mission.
Proposing was a first for her, and she felt uncertain, so she sought advice from her 2D friend.
Ruanruan: I'm so worried. I passed by the mall yesterday and bought an engagement ring on the spur of the moment. Now my mind is full of wanting to propose to my girlfriend. But now the timing isn't right, I'm so conflicted.
Huaijin Holds Yu: Think about it Da Da, what kind of time is right?
Ruanruan: At least you have to make all the preparations. I haven't made my relationship with her public yet. I feel like there is still a long way to go. If I hadn't bought this ring out of the blue, I never would have thought of proposing so soon.
Huaijin Holds Yu: If you bought that ring, it shows that you want to be with her for the long term. Based on what you described, I believe your girlfriend probably feels the same way. In reality, as long as two people truly love each other, any timing can be considered right.
Ruanruan: You sound so philosophical, but you have to choose a scene for a marriage proposal. You can't take out the ring while playing with your phone.
Huai Jin holds Yu: I personally think that the proposal scene doesn't need to be grand, as long as people's hearts are fluttering, then it is a suitable scene.
Ruan Jinghong recalled what J said that day, her thoughts went back to that moment, and the scene where her heart is fluttering seemed to be at this moment.
She looked at Wen Jin, who was close at hand, with tenderness in her eyes.
Such a beautiful Teacher Wen, if I propose to her now, she wouldn't want to reject me, right?
She pressed the small box in her pocket, bit her lip, and finally mustered up her courage.
"Teacher Wen, I have something to tell you."
As soon as she finished speaking and before she heard Wen Jin's reply, someone patted her shoulder firmly.
She turned around, and saw Shen Qingzhi and Gu Jinrong wearing sun hats, who appeared here at some point.
Shen Qingzhi adjusted her hat and looked at Gu Jinrong with a smug expression.
"I told you it was them from their back view. You didn't believe me."
Gu Jinrong squeezed her wife's hand lovingly, and greeted the two of them gracefully.
Ruan Jinghong's impromptu marriage proposal was aborted unexpectedly. She was a little regretful, but also a little relieved.
"Director Shen, Sister Gu, what a coincidence, are you also here to travel?"
Among the four of them, Shen Qingzhi wore the most fancy clothes, like a peacock with its tail open, she raised her head and said triumphantly.
"Little friend, we didn't come here just for sightseeing. I came here with my wife for our honeymoon."
Ruan Jinghong: ?
Honeymoon? How long have you two been married?
Shen Qingzhi heard Ruan Jinghong's inner voice from the doubtful look on her face, and rightfully said,
"Isn't it normal to have a honeymoon every year after marriage? Oh, yes, you don't have wives yet, so you can't understand it."
Ruan Jinghong: ...
If you hadn't suddenly appeared, I might already have a wife by now.
Gu Jinrong saw that her wife was annoying others without restraint, so she hurried out to smooth things over.
"I heard that riding a bicycle by the seaside is a good experience. Have you ever tried it?"
Wen Jin looked at her little girlfriend on the side, and then at another old couple.
"Not yet, how about a competition?"
Shen Qingzhi was competitive since she was a child. When she heard that there was a competition, she immediately regained her spirits and pointed to the rock in the distance where only the outline was visible.
"It's a good competition. Let's end at that rock. Whoever gets there first wins?"
"It's a deal."
They went to the beach and rented two bicycles, and they competed in groups of two.
The people sitting in the driver's seat are Shen Qingzhi and Wen Jin.
At thirty-six, Shen Qingzhi still exuded vitality and energy. As soon as the "start" signal was given, he stomped on the pedals and fiercely rushed forward like a bolt.
In contrast, Wen Jin, who was left far behind, seemed much more relaxed.
Ruan Jinghong looked at the shrinking back in front of them, and reminded in a low voice.
"Teacher Wen, it seems like we won't be able to catch up like this."
"If we can't catch up, then we can't. Hold me tighter."
The competition was just an excuse. Ruan Jinghong was worried that Wen Jin would be unhappy if she lost, but seeing that she didn't care about it at the moment, she was relieved.
At this time, the purity of the world of the two of them has been restored.
Ruan Jinghong stretched and wrapped her arms around the slender waist in front of her, feeling the softness of the sea breeze, the warm autumn sun, and the bewitching aura of her lover in front of her.
The wind lifted Wen Jin's ink-like long hair and playfully brushed across the tip of Ruan Jinghong's nose.
Ruan Jinghong rubbed the tip of her slightly itchy nose, grasping the strand of black hair with her fingers, unwilling to let go.
The sun fell on the beach, smearing a golden patch, and the two of them drew a meandering curve on the golden sand.
Wen Jin and Ruan Jinghong rode leisurely for an extra half an hour before arriving at their destination. As soon as they got off the car, they saw Shen Qingzhi's bored appearance.
"I say, you two are so slow, like you learned from turtles. But, hey, we won!"
Wen Jin lazily nodded and echoed, "Yes, you guys won, that's amazing."
Shen Qingzhi became complacent again, like a peacock fighting for victory, "We won, what about the prize?"
Wen Jin looked innocent and said, "I only mentioned having a competition, but I didn't promise any prize."
Shen Qingzhi, who won the competition but didn't receive any prize, felt a bit regretful in hindsight. "Oh well, I forgot to mention it earlier. You guys got off easy."
Gu Jinrong couldn't see her wife depressed, so she stretched out her hand and rubbed her ear to coax her.
"Isn't the happiness brought by winning the game the best prize?"
Shen Qingzhi was easily coaxed, and she deeply agreed.
"My wife is right. I don't lack anything anyway. If I win, it means I'm good."
She quickly shifted her attention, pointing to the railing beside her, offering treasures to Wen Jin and Ruan Jinghong.
"When we first came here, we found out that this rock is called Lover's Rock. Look at the locks on the railing next to it. There are many young lovers who wish for eternal love."
"Little couples like you who have just fallen in love, don't you like to hang one too?"
Ruan Jinghong's gaze followed the direction where Shen Qingzhi pointed to. There were indeed many heart-shaped locks on the iron railings that were less than two meters wide.
She took two steps closer and asked curiously: “Director Shen, is that lock over there yours and Sister Gu's?”
Shen Qingzhi held her wife's arm with a proud face.
"Hai, we've been an old married couple for years now. Our relationship is already stable enough, so we don't need this kind of formal expression. This thing is more suitable for you young ones."
First, Ruan Jinghong's marriage proposal was interrupted, and then Shen Qingzhi repeatedly showed off her affection. At this time, she felt a bit rebellious.
"Teacher Wen and I are also of one heart, our love is as strong as gold, and we don't need to rely on such formalities, right, Teacher Wen?"
Wen Jin looked at her little girlfriend with a smile on her face, "Yes, that's right."
