The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 369
CHAPTER 369: CHAPTER 369
"Xixi!"
Fu Youhan kneels on one knee in front of Jiang Moxi, instilling her with an inexplicable sense of sacredness and shock.
In fact, ever since Fu Youhan walked into the banquet carrying flowers, his gaze had never left Jiang Moxi.
But Jiang Moxi still couldn’t believe that this man came specifically for her.
After all, for Wen You’s sake, this man had neglected her time and again.
Additionally, Ling Hua unintentionally revealed that this man knew she was leaving, yet he did not come to find her...
So when she saw the man, Jiang Moxi even thought that he was approaching her, regardless of his past disguise, still for the sake of Wen You.
Not until this man kneeled on one knee before her.
"What are you doing? Aren’t you worried that people will discover your legs are fine?"
Jiang Moxi also whispered softly, "Stand up quickly."
But Fu Youhan suddenly grabbed her hand, his gaze burning as he asked her, "So Xixi, that means you actually do care about me, right?"
"You’re overthinking it." Jiang Moxi shook off Fu Youhan’s hand.
In her own world, she too had her pride and her own set of rules.
Fu Youhan chose Wen You over her again and again, breaking her rules and trampling her pride and self-respect.
Even if she still liked Fu Youhan, she did not want to continue this deeply hurtful romance.
The moment Third Master Fu kneeled before Jiang Moxi, it already brought an unprecedented stir to the whole scene.
Because even after the accident, when Fu Youhan could only move about in a wheelchair, he had never shown such submission in front of a woman, not to mention that he had stood up again, ready to dazzle the entire Yan City anew.
Therefore, countless people were shocked by Third Master Fu’s actions today, even believing that this girl must have saved the entire galaxy in her past life to receive such special attention from Third Master Fu.
But who would imagine, Jiang Moxi fiercely shook off Third Master Fu’s hand.
This action, which did not spare the man any dignity, immediately drew the scorn of countless people.
Of course, they also felt that the girl’s actions would surely infuriate Third Master Fu.
Who is Third Master Fu?
He is the man revered by the whole of Yan City like a deity!
Even when he was confined to a wheelchair, nobody dared to truly offend him.
Especially now that he could stand again.
Hence, almost everyone felt that Jiang Moxi was courting death; even if she had saved the galaxy in her previous life, such behavior would only dissipate Third Master Fu’s affection for her.
Just like the Jiang Family thought the same.
In their eyes, Third Master Fu was not an ordinary man; even though he might indulge Jiang Moxi somewhat due to her youth and beauty, it certainly would not be without limits.
Especially now that Jiang Moxi didn’t give Third Master Fu any face in front of so many people.
Thus, everyone in the Jiang Family unanimously believed that Fu Youhan would surely grow to dislike Jiang Moxi because of this and eventually distance himself from her.
In fact, this was precisely what the Jiang Family members looked forward to seeing the most.
Besides, they also hoped Suchen would see the clear picture of Jiang Moxi’s spoilt and tyrannical nature and come to dislike her and stay away from her.
Because that would best serve their interests.
Fu Wangning, watching Fu Youhan kneeling before Jiang Moxi, hoped for the same.
Because she never imagined that Fu Youhan would actually kneel before a woman far inferior to herself to declare his love, which was simply an insult to her, Fu Wangning.
And now, Jiang Moxi didn’t take the hint to back off, she was definitely challenging Fu Youhan’s authority.
That’s fine.
Fu Youhan, such a proud person, will certainly not forgive Jiang Moxi – he’ll probably deal with Jiang Moxi personally.
Fu Wangning maliciously hoped that Jiang Moxi would not end well, and wanted to take advantage of Fu Youhan’s emotional defeat today to comfort his wounded heart, and thus find an opportunity to make her move.
However, just as Fu Wangning was filled with anticipation and continued to watch Fu Youhan and Jiang Moxi, she saw that after Jiang Moxi pushed Fu Youhan’s hand away, he reached out again to hold it.
Even after being pushed away by Jiang Moxi several times, he persistently reached out to hold her hand.
"Don’t be angry with me anymore, okay? These two days without you, I was almost driven mad with searching. I never knew I could lose control over a woman like this, sleepless night after night..."
Perhaps because Jiang Moxi had pushed Fu Youhan’s hand away several times and became tired;
Or perhaps it was because she was moved by Fu Youhan’s words – this time Jiang Moxi didn’t push his hand away and lowered her eyes.
"I’ve been reflecting on the memories of our time together, and I realize I truly have fallen in love with you – I can’t live without you. As for Wen You, I will explain everything to you later, and what I can assure you is that there is no romantic involvement between Wen You and me. The one I love is you, and only you."
During Fu Youhan’s passionate declaration, some ripples appeared in Jiang Moxi’s tearful eyes.
Ling Ye, who overheard the confession nearby, couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Damn! When did they get together? How did I not know? Could it be that Uncle, in order to keep Moxi, resorted to this tactic? But Uncle has given up too much!"
However, as soon as Ling Ye said this, he was rebuked by Ling Hua.
"Brother, do you think our Uncle is someone who would sacrifice so much for someone else?"
Ling Ye paused: "No! So..."
So did Uncle and Jiang Moxi really get together a long time ago?
Ling Ye still could not accept it.
Because he always felt that Jiang Moxi and Uncle were not creatures of the same dimension.
And yet these two people actually broke through the dimensional barrier to be together!
"I told you before, Uncle and Sister Moxi’s interactions were full of love, you just never wanted to believe it."
Ling Ye wanted to say something more to Ling Hua but was interrupted by Ling Yinan.
"Shut up, don’t talk. Your uncle might be proposing, don’t cause trouble."
Ling Yinan, with such grown kids, naturally had a wealth of life experience.
Back in the day, Ling Ye’s dad also knelt on one knee to move Ling Yinan’s heart and married her.
But when Ling Ye and Ling Hua heard that Uncle might propose to Jiang Moxi, they got even more restless.
"No way, Uncle and Moxi, either they don’t do anything or they go big?"
"Sister Moxi is only one year older than me, and she’s going to be my aunt? That feels kind of strange, but I still wish them the best."
Ling Yinan thought the two kids were too noisy, simply stretched out a hand to cover their mouths, and then saw Fu Youhan take out a velvet box from his pocket under the gaze of countless people.
Fu Youhan opened the box in front of Jiang Moxi.
In the box lay a diamond ring the size of a pigeon’s egg!
"Xixi, I hope for you to be with me for the rest of my life – you are the spring flowers, the summer rain, the autumn yellow, the winter snow. You are the warmth and cold of all seasons, you are where my gaze falls. So, marry me, will you?"
Seeing the diamond ring, Jiang Moxi’s clear, water-like pupils once again showed ripples...
