The surprise Ye Xunhuan gave to Qiu Ruoxi was undeniably immense for her, so big that she never ever thought about it, nor dared to imagine!
It can be said that for such a long time, Qiu Ruoxi had never been this happy and excited as she was now.
Upon hearing this from Qiu Ruoxi, Ye Xunhuan immediately started grinning foolishly.
Although the time Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi had spent together wasn’t brief, Qiu Ruoxi had never once said "I love you" to Ye Xunhuan in person, just as Ye Xunhuan had never played romance with Qiu Ruoxi.
This was why Qiu Ruoxi was excited, and Ye Xunhuan felt the same.
For a moment, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi looked into each other’s eyes, filled with deep affection for each other.
The beautiful and colorful lights were constantly flashing around them, while soft piano music started to play, reminiscent of a babbling brook, making everything sound so melodious and filling the atmosphere and scene with unparalleled warmth.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying a slight chill, invigorating the senses.
Time ticked away, second by second, and suddenly an inappropriate voice shattered the warm scene!
"I say, if you two want to gaze at each other, go back to bed and do it. Can you let us eat first? I’m starving!"
Upon hearing this voice, Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan slowly came to their senses.
After snapping back to reality, a blush immediately appeared on Qiu Ruoxi’s face, reminding her that there were others around.
She realized she had just kissed Ye Xunhuan in front of so many people.
Just thinking about these things made Qiu Ruoxi’s heart race out of control, and her face even more rosily flushed.
Qiu Ruoxi, with her thin skin, felt a little shy, but Ye Xunhuan was unfazed: "Olivia, damn, how could you break this atmosphere..."
"I used my Blood Concealment Technique to assist your proposal, and you’re not even feeding us..."
Earlier, Ye Xunhuan gently tapped, and the ring appeared out of thin air, entirely Olivia’s doing. She had used her Blood Concealment Technique to hide herself, making people only see that shimmering diamond ring!
For a moment, Ye Xunhuan didn’t know how to respond; indeed, Olivia had contributed a great deal to this proposal, and the lighting arrangement was all done at her suggestion.
It could be said that Olivia was the biggest contributor to this proposal!
"Choke on it!" Ye Xunhuan said grumpily, "Dinner is served!"
Then, Ye Xunhuan led Qiu Ruoxi to the head table, where the two sat down.
Once they were seated, dishes were promptly brought to them one by one. This time, Ye Xunhuan thoroughly introduced Qiu Ruoxi in front of everyone!
After dinner, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi left early.
However, just after Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan departed, Zuo En seemed to recall something and slapped his thigh abruptly: "Oh no, I forgot something!"
Everyone’s gaze immediately fixed on Zuo En.
"Zuo En, what did you forget?"
"Blood Phoenix, the queen’s wedding dress hasn’t been tried on; it’s unknown whether it fits!" Zuo En said with a look of helplessness: "If it doesn’t fit, we can still modify it overnight if we hurry!"
"Why don’t you go there now?"
"I wouldn’t dare go now!" Zuo En immediately shook his head like a rattle: "If I interrupt the king and queen, I wouldn’t even know how I die!"
Speaking of which, Zuo En gave a sheepish smile to Olivia: "Blood Phoenix, could you please go..."
Zuo En was quite experienced; with Ye Xunhuan pulling such a surprise today, Qiu Ruoxi’s heart was certainly full of emotion, and she must’ve been moved.
When a woman is moved and emotional, especially in front of the man she loves, inevitably, some unsuitable-for-children things happen.
Going at this time would surely irritate Ye Xunhuan, so Zuo En dared not go!
"I’m not going!" Olivia snorted lightly, "Besides, it’s not my wedding dress..."
"Blood Phoenix, please help me, tomorrow is the wedding, and if the dress doesn’t fit..."
Looking at Zuo En’s earnest plea, Olivia sighed helplessly: "Zuo En, if it weren’t for your age, I’d really want to smack you!"
"Blood Phoenix..."
"I’m going now!"
With those words, Olivia vanished like a breeze.
After Olivia left, several men immediately surrounded Zuo En.
"Zuo En, do you think Blood Phoenix has feelings for our king?"
"Yeah, otherwise why did Blood Phoenix say it’s not her wedding dress?"
"Right, do you think if Blood Phoenix truly got involved with our king, would she be a wife or a concubine..."
Three black lines appeared on Zuo En’s forehead: "Do you all have a death wish? If Blood Phoenix hears this, she will kill you!"
Upon hearing Zuo En’s words, everyone shivered, and promptly kept silent.
Seeing the group fall silent, Zuo En slowly spoke: "Actually, I’m more curious about what a baby born from a human and blood clan would be like..."
Upon hearing Zuo En’s words, everyone’s lips twitched; this old man thinks even further than they do!
Everything was just as Zuo En imagined, Ye Xunhuan brought great emotion to Qiu Ruoxi, and upon return, the two became immersed in loving intimacy.
Just as they were about to get down to business, the door suddenly got knocked from outside.
This abrupt knock made Ye Xunhuan’s face sour instantly, prompting him to say angrily: "Who’s there?"
At such a moment, probably no man would appreciate interruptions; the feeling of being stuck in between is rather uncomfortable.
Moreover, if a man has anger issues, whoever interrupts might end up with serious injury.
"It’s me!" Olivia said calmly, "You two hurry up, I need to talk to Qiu Ruoxi!"
"I’ll give you three minutes, make it quick!"
Inside the room, Ye Xunhuan’s face turned instantly dark: "Damn, Olivia, three minutes for what?"
"Three minutes isn’t enough?" Olivia immediately responded, "Alright, I’ll give you five minutes, that should be sufficient, right?"
Inside the room, Ye Xunhuan suddenly felt a strong urge to mess with Olivia.
Five minutes, am I a five-minute man?
You know my stamina, giving me only five minutes...
