Chapter 421: Chapter 422: Coming Clean (Part 1)
Li Tingyan lightly tapped Nianyangâs nose, "Silly Nini, just preparing a cake for you made your eyes red.
Youâre so easy to please, how are you going to handle the rest of the surprise?"
Nianyang blinked her beautiful big eyes, "What other surprise?"
Li Tingyan raised an eyebrow, "First make a wish and blow out the candles."
Nianyang did as instructed, and as soon as she blew out the candles, the tall man knelt down on one knee in front of her.
"Nini, you told me to calm down, and now Iâve thought it through. I really like you, so much that I want to marry you. Will you marry me?"
Li Tingyan solemnly presented the ring under Nianyangâs eyes.
Nianyangâs eyes felt warm, "Will you still get angry with me?"
"I wonât!"
"Will you believe every word I say?"
"I will!"
Nianyang sniffled, "Then youâre not allowed to leave me again!"
Li Tingyan looked serious, "There wonât be a next time!"
"What if you break your promise?"
"Then Iâll be a servant to my wife in my next life!"
Nianyang burst out laughing, "Okay, I agree!"
Li Tingyan was overjoyed and immediately slipped the ring onto Nianyangâs ring finger, then whispered softly in her ear, "What I said before was out of anger. This ring was custom-made just for you."
Nianyangâs heart felt sweet, the feeling of putting on the ring herself and having Li Tingyan put it on for her were indeed two different experiences.
"Applauseââ"
The onlookers around them cooperatively started clapping, offering their congratulations.
Nianyang smiled a little, "But I still need to evaluate you for a while. You have to wait until I want to get married before you can marry me!"
Li Tingyanâs face fell, "So how long do I have to wait?"
"That depends on when I feel like it." Nianyang raised an eyebrow,
"Do you have a problem with that?"
"No, no..." a voice full of grievance and frustration.
Suddenly, Xiao Wu jumped out and said, "Saozi, weâre all your support. If Li Ye makes you unhappy again, just tell us, weâll take care of him for you. We canât take on Li Ye alone, but together weâre sure to win, right, guys?!"
"Yeah!"
A chorus of cheerful shouts filled the room, the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious!
Li Tingyan feigned authority, "You bunch of rascals, whoâs your boss here, hmm? Feeling rebellious, are you?"
Xiao Wu beamed, "We have Saozi, sheâll care for us, Saozi wouldnât let you bully us!"
Nianyang laughed, "Thatâs right, youâre not allowed to scare them."
Li Tingyan nuzzled Nianyangâs cheek, "Honey, Iâm your man, how can you side with outsiders to bully meïœ"
Oh dear.
Everyoneâs teeth were starting to ache from the sweetness, their Li Ye was being so cutesy, even acting spoiled!
Where did the big bad guy who used to give them a hard time without batting an eye go?
Turns out this real man had two sides!
Nianyang nudged the manâs head, "Okay, thatâs enough, arenât you afraid of being laughed at by such a big guy?"
Li Tingyan immediately shot a cold look around, "Who dares!"
Everyone...
Fine, fine, they must have overthought it!
Li Ye is still the big bad guy, fair to all ages.
Itâs just that in front of Nianyang, he transforms into a little lamb at any moment.
The birthday party went on until ten at night before everyone dispersed.
