Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 352: Will You Marry Me?

Lin Zhiyi took a bath and changed into new clothes after returning home.

Just then, Sang Li came to pick her up.

The two went to watch a movie in the afternoon, and during dinner, Sang Li mysteriously said he had a gift for her.

Lin Zhiyi thought he was planning to give her flowers again.

"Mr. Sang, I really don’t have any more vases to put flowers in, please spare me."

"Flowers? Sort of," Sang Li said with a meaningful smile.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t think much about it, merely considering to look for vases in a supermarket on her way home later.

After dinner, Sang Li suggested taking a walk.

Lin Zhiyi followed him to the restaurant’s backyard garden.

The area was decorated with numerous lights, looking quite enchanting.

Oddly enough, except for the two of them, there were no other guests around.

"Why is there nobody else?" Lin Zhiyi curiously asked.

Sang Li stopped, looked at her solemnly, and said, "Because today it is open only for you."

Lin Zhiyi was stunned when suddenly fireworks burst above them in the sky.

She looked up at the night sky, her face lit up by the brilliant splendor.

Sang Li, however, kept his gaze fixed on the woman in front of him.

Even the most beautiful fireworks could not compare to her smile.

Her smile rippled at the corners of her lips, lightly brushing over his heart like a feather.

Her eyes shimmered with emotion, capturing one so deeply with just a glance that it was impossible to pull away.

Sang Li reached out, pulling her close and lifted an engagement ring in front of her.

"Zhiyi, will you marry me?"

"..."

Lin Zhiyi looked at Sang Li, at a loss.

She never imagined Sang Li would propose to her.

By the time she regained her senses, Sang Li had already taken her hand to slip on the ring.

The ten-carat oval main diamond, offset by a ribbon and butterfly knot design, appeared very lively.

It was clear that Sang Li had put a lot of thought into selecting the ring.

But was she really worthy of it?

As the ring neared her finger, Lin Zhiyi involuntarily curled her fingers.

Sang Li paused, sensing her hesitation: "Zhiyi, trust me."

Lin Zhiyi looked into his earnest eyes, feeling a warmth in her heart.

Just then, purple fireworks burst overhead, sparkling like a sky full of stars.

Thinking of stars, she couldn’t help but look up, feeling as if the stars were responding to her.

Indeed, it was time for her to start a new life.

Sang Li noticed Lin Zhiyi’s prolonged silence, feeling somewhat dejected, "Zhiyi, I won’t force you."

But Lin Zhiyi raised her other hand: "Put it on this hand; my other hand hasn’t fully recovered yet, it needs rehabilitation training, so I can’t wear a ring on it."

"Yes, yes,"

Sang Li kept nodding.

Zhou Zhao, who had been secretly controlling the lights from behind, couldn’t stand watching anymore and peeked out from behind the tree.

"Young Master! Put on the ring!"

"Yes, yes."

The usually composed Sang Li seemed a bit flustered.

He took Lin Zhiyi’s other hand and slipped the ring onto her index finger.

Zhou Zhao face-palmed: "Young Master! You put it on the wrong finger!"

Sang Li cleared his throat, finally managing to place the ring on the correct finger.

Lin Zhiyi, watching the two, couldn’t help but laugh.

"How long have you two been busy with this?"

"Not long," Sang Li said lightly.

Zhou Zhao brushed tree leaves off himself: "Not long? We started preparing a week ago, and spent all yesterday rehearsing. The young master said you don’t like being watched, but we couldn’t do without a ceremony, so that’s why he arranged the fireworks. Now the whole city is guessing who set them off."

Before Lin Zhiyi could ask Zhou Zhao to keep it quiet, Sang Li already spoke: "No need to let anyone know, as long as we know that’s enough. Zhiyi is still undergoing hand rehabilitation, continuously being observed isn’t good for her."

Zhou Zhao nodded, "I will keep an eye on online news, and if someone captures it, I will have it taken down. I’ll go get busy then, you two continue."

With that, he left.

Lin Zhiyi, like many girls, looked down at the ring, "It’s too big; I’m afraid to wear it out."

"Is it too big? I originally wanted to get a twenty-carat one, but I knew you didn’t like anything too flashy, so I chose this smaller one."

"..."

It’s like a pigeon egg.

...

The island.

Chen Jin walked into the room with breakfast.

"Third Young Master, it’s time to eat."

The man sitting at the foot of the bed moved his body and slowly looked up, sweat sliding over his tight muscles, leaving his deep eyes enveloped in endless darkness.

"Put it down."

His hoarse voice was so cold that even the sunlight of the island couldn’t warm it.

Chen Jin put down the breakfast and immediately handed over a towel, continuing, "Feifei was taken away by a stranger right after she got off the plane; even the Ye Family doesn’t know where she is. If Feifei talks nonsense..."

Gong Chen took the towel and wiped his sweat, "It must have been targeted at me."

"I will continue to send people to look for her." While speaking, Chen Jin looked at the red mark on Gong Chen’s wrist, his lips tightly shut.

Gong Chen got up and walked to the table for breakfast, "Speak directly if you have something to say."

Chen Jin hesitantly said, "Mr. Sang proposed to Miss Lin, and Miss Lin... agreed."

Gong Chen’s cutlery paused, then slowly continued.

"Book a plane ticket."

"Yes."

Chen Jin turned and left.

Gong Chen put down his cutlery and walked to the bedside drawer, pulling it open and taking out a photo.

It was still the photo from the bachelor party.

However, for some reason, the photo corners had been folded as he had held it tightly; he gently smoothed out the marks.

He looked at the woman in the photo and slightly curved his lips.

Perhaps because he was looking so intently, he didn’t even notice someone approaching from behind.

Sang Ran looked at the man’s side face, then at the photo, her face turning deathly pale.

She didn’t even have the courage to step forward and question him.

In the end, she could only quietly return to her own room.

Yes, her own room.

Everyone envied her wedding and her month-long honeymoon renting the entire island.

But no one knew that they had been sleeping in separate rooms all along.

Gong Chen said he was concerned about her health, leaving her completely unguarded.

She thought marriage would make everything better but found that she still hadn’t entered his heart.

In her room, Sang Ran covered her face and started crying.

Due to the emotional upheaval, she suddenly felt pain in her chest and frantically stuffed several pills from the medicine box into her mouth.

Soon after, she collapsed on the sofa, breathing faintly.

The mirrored crystal lamp on the ceiling reflected her pale and weak face.

She really looked like a pitiful creature.

Sang Ran bit her lip hard, paused for a moment, then pulled out her phone to send a message to Wen Qing.

"Aunty, we are preparing to go back."

"Why don’t you stay a few more days? I heard that the weather on the island is particularly good recently, perfect for a vacation. It will be a good time for you and your husband to enjoy each other’s company."

Wen Qing encouraged Sang Ran and Gong Chen to stay a few more days, not because she cared for Sang Ran.

But because she hoped Sang Ran could get pregnant within that month.

In this way, Sang Ran would secure her position at the Gong Family as the Third Madam.

"My brother’s proposal was successful, I have to go back and congratulate him," Sang Ran replied.

"Proposal? Who? Lin Zhiyi?"

"Yes."

"Stop joking, that’s impossible. Your brother is the president of Sang Group; how could he possibly marry someone like Lin Zhiyi, a woman of her reputation?"

Wen Qing was obviously anxious, accidentally letting her true thoughts slip.

"Last night’s fireworks at Huai De Road Garden were set off by my brother."

Wen Qing didn’t reply from the other end of the phone.
