Wang Yi nodded.
"Of course Iām prepared, Xiao Chiang is my best friend, my best sister."
"Take it out and let me see," Chen Yin said.
Wang Yi was a bit puzzled.
Why should she give it to him?
"I guess Xiao Chiang wonāt accept ours this time. Uncle and the others are giving a name change fee, and they havenāt gotten married yet. Thereās no need for a name change with us, so they wonāt accept ours. Letās give it to them when they get married."
Actually, Wang Yi also gave Chiang Xiao a quilt.
Chen Yin sent even more gifts, including a bicycle, a Phoenix brand womenās bicycle, which is still quite impressive now.
But Chen Yin still insisted that she take out the red envelope.
Wang Yi took it out and handed it to him.
Chen Yin took it, pulled out the money from inside, stuffed it into his own red envelope, then took out a pen from his pocket and wrote something on the back of the envelope.
From Chen Yin and Wang Yi, the couple.
"What are you doing!" Wang Yi couldnāt help but hit him after seeing it clearly.
What do you mean by āthe coupleā?
Theyāre not even married, what kind of couple is that?
Chen Yin held her hand tightly, looked at her, and said softly, "Little Yi, will you marry me? The mistake I made back then, let me spend a lifetime making it up to you. I will definitely be good to you in the future, never look at another woman again. Iāll give all my earnings to you, you will be the head of our household, my leader. Iāll listen to whatever you say, marry me."
"What are you doing," Wang Yiās face reddened, and she couldnāt help but feel a bit flustered. She lowered her voice and said, "This is Great Officer Meng and Xiao Chiangās big day, alright, even though they didnāt actually get married today, itās their day, so please stop talking."
"Iām just envious of Xinian, who can continue to grow deeper in love with Sister-in-law, even if they didnāt get married today. But look at them, their relationship hasnāt been affected at all." Chen Yin glanced at Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian, just in time to see them exchange a glance and a smile, revealing a tacit understanding and deep affection that filled him with envy.
Wang Yi also witnessed this scene.
What she envied most about Chiang Xiao was that every time Great Officer Meng looked at Chiang Xiao, his eyes were full of affection and love. Sometimes there was even a glinting pride, as if Chiang Xiao were his sun, his moon, his stars, his source of light.
Just looking at Meng Xinianās gaze, it was easy to see how deep his love was for Chiang Xiao.
To be deeply loved by such a man, and Chiang Xiao was also strong enough not to rely on him for shelter from the wind and rain, able to walk side by side with himāit was truly a blessing.
Such love fulfilled her best imagination of romance.
But with her and Chen Yin, she couldnāt quite put it into words.
If they were to break up, she couldnāt bear it and it would break her heart. Being with Chen Yin also brought her happiness, and sometimes, looking at him, being kissed by him, she felt the impulse to give herself to him completely.
But when it came to marriage, somehow she still hesitated.
In fact, Chen Yin had already asked her to marry him several times.
Wang Yi didnāt know if delaying would cause Chen Yin to lose patience or become disappointed.
After all, they werenāt getting any younger.
Her parents had also been urging her.
"Letās talk about it later. Today, letās just be happy for Xiao Chiang and Great Officer Meng," she said.
Disappointment and sadness filled Chen Yinās eyes.
Rejected once again, he didnāt know how long he would have to pay for the mistake he made in the past.
