Chapter 324 Proposal
Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng with a pair of phoenix eyes that were as bright as stars.
"As you can see."
Gu Qingcheng stared at Huo Sicheng blankly, her head buzzing.
As she sees it?
The scene she saw before her eyes would never make her believe it.
In fact, she had imagined that Huo Sicheng would have such a day, but when this day came, she couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.
She asked Huo Sicheng in a low voice: "Why?"
Huo Sicheng said in a gentle voice, "Because you are Gu Qingcheng."
Gu Qingcheng saw the deep affection and sincerity towards him in Huo Sicheng's phoenix eyes.
Because she is Gu Qingcheng—this sentence is the sentence that touches her heart the most.
She is Gu Qingcheng, not Mrs. Huo, nor anyone's appendage. She has always been herself. Huo Sicheng's simple words moved her heart.
He was like this. He always said words that made her heart move inadvertently, expressing his respect for her in every sentence.
As soon as Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng, his eyes became gentle, and he said softly: "I'll put it on for you."
"No." Gu Qingcheng suddenly came to his senses and quickly retracted his hand, "I won't give it to you."
At this moment, Huo Sicheng's star-like phoenix eyes instantly dimmed. He looked at Gu Qingcheng, who took two steps back to distance himself from him, with a complicated expression.
When Gu Qingcheng saw Huo Sicheng's shocked, bewildered, lost and bitter look, her heart that had just been beating for him suddenly became filled with distress.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not rejecting you." She quickly told Huo Sicheng, "I think it's better for me to prepare the ring."
Yes, Huo Sicheng was holding a gift box in his hand the moment she turned around. Inside the exquisite gift box was a pair of rings.
She only glanced at it, and she liked it wholeheartedly. She also knew that Huo Sicheng had carefully customized it.
This pair of rings is not luxurious, even too simple, but the small details show that Huo Sicheng cares about her, because the ring is made of diamond-embedded lily of the valley flowers climbing into a circle, and the women's ring also has a pink diamond carved into a lily in the middle. In full bloom, the men's model is just a simple lily of the valley leaf ring, one white and one black. The two matching rings are extremely classic and set off both him and her.
Huo Sicheng has always had a high taste and knows very well what style she likes. She fell in love with this pair of rings.
But the reason why she refused to wear the ring was because she had a grudge in her heart. It was Miss Li.
Miss Li's matter has not been resolved, and it will always be a point of uneasiness in her heart, and she will not allow Huo Si to ride on both sides.
What's more, Huo Sicheng is her husband, so the meaning of him giving the pair of rings is completely different from that of giving him the necklace.
The necklace can be worn as an accessory at any time, but once Huo Sicheng gives a ring, it is a wedding ring as a promise.
At least it’s okay for her not to wear a ring. Once she wears it, she will never take it off for the rest of her life, so wearing the ring is not as simple as Huo Sicheng putting it on her.
If he doesn't solve Miss Li's matter, she won't wear the ring.
Although she had longed for and fantasized about Huo Sicheng putting a wedding ring on her, she only thought about it.
Huo Sicheng was very close to Gu Qingcheng, and the close distance allowed him to see the subtle changes in her eyes.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the pair of rings in his hands. The rings were very beautiful and were designed by him personally as a promise ring for him and Gu Qingcheng.
He really should have listened to his son Huo Xuan and given the ring to her earlier, then she would not have rejected him.
So many things have happened now. On the surface, she is as harmonious with him as before, but in fact, she is complaining and angry with him in her heart. Especially that night when she told her to stay with Qi Shaoze in the hospital, he was filled with jealousy and thought that he could no longer wait like this.
He went to the hospital out of selfish motives, out of jealousy, and wanted to put the ring on Gu Qingcheng in front of Qi Shaoze that day.
However, when he went to the hospital that day and saw Gu Qingcheng lying tiredly on the stone table outside, he knew that he had missed her too much.
He saw how tired she was and felt sorry for her that she didn't reveal the ring to the public even though she worked so hard.
After procrastinating and procrastinating, finally today, when he thought the time was most suitable, he wanted to put the ring on her, but he waited for a rejection from her.
He felt sad, and it hurt like a knife.
"Okay." He didn't want her to be embarrassed and agreed, "I'll listen to you."
After saying this, he slowly closed the gift box containing the pair of rings. Suddenly he didn't know what to do with the pair of rings. He just felt that the box was heavy in his hand and burned his hands like fire.
Gu Qingcheng looked at Huo Sicheng's calm handsome face, and she felt an indescribable bitterness and apology in her heart.
The calmer his expression is, the more intense his emotions are, she knows, but he will not be overjoyed and will try his best to restrain himself.
This is where she apologizes. Her rejection of him was like a slap in the face.
Her eyes fell on his ten fingers. His perfect hands with clear joints and slender bones, like works of art, were not wearing any rings.
Once he wears the pair of rings he prepared, he will really be a married man. Isn’t Miss Li angry?
Suddenly, she began to feel irritable.
The corner of her mouth moved. She wanted to tell Huo Sicheng when Miss Li's matter would be resolved and when she would wear the ring.
These words came to her lips, and she swallowed them down in the end. She didn't want to appear like a jealous person who only wanted to be jealous of Miss Li.
She didn't even want her to become obsessed with Miss Li even if she was wearing a ring, because no matter how much she struggled, Huo Sicheng still told her to wait and wait for him to tell her.
Wait, this is the only answer he can give her, which is not fair to her at all, so she can't mention Miss Li.
She could tell something was wrong with him, so she took the initiative to help him step down, took the ring box from her hand and stuffed it into his pocket.
“What are you doing standing around? Put the ring away quickly and let’s eat.”
Huo Sicheng watched Gu Qingcheng put the ring box back into his pocket. He looked at his empty hands with complicated eyes.
It turned out that his hand was not burned by the ring box, but he was in pain. A kind of heart-piercing pain spread through his whole body from the palm of his hand.
Gu Qingcheng was sitting at the dining table. She took the chopsticks to pick up the food for Huo Sicheng.
"Huo Sicheng, come here for dinner." She called to Huo Sicheng as calmly as if nothing was wrong, "I've prepared all the dishes for you. After you eat, you go back to the group and I'll go get busy. I'll go back early tonight and give you some food." The baby will prepare delicious food. By the way, if you finish your work early, you can go to school to pick up your son and bring him back to the villa."
The crisp voice of Gu Qingcheng next to him reached Huo Sicheng's ears. A flash of painful bitterness flashed through his eyes before he turned to look at her.
At this time, his expression was no longer bitter, and he only looked at her tenderly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll take Huo Xuan home after I finish my work."
He came to Gu Qingcheng and held Gu Qingcheng's little hand as he went to get a tissue. His eyes were full of seriousness: "You just said the wrong thing."
Gu Qingcheng had just had an unpleasant quarrel with Huo Sicheng. Although she pretended to be calm, her heart was depressed and painful, and she was in a daze. So when Huo Sicheng held her hand, her whole body froze like a frightened bird.
The next moment, when she faced Huo Sicheng's gentle handsome face and eyes, she suppressed her unnecessary defensiveness.
She asked Huo Sicheng with a puzzled look on her face: "Did I say something wrong? What did I say wrong?"
