Chapter 720: Marriage Proposal
Translator: Lordbluefire
Dr. Xu thought to himself, lowering his head. He then let out a bitter smile and continued to drive forward.
Soon, he arrived at the marital home he and Rong Rong had purchased together.
It was a three-bedroom flat in a residential complex, not very large but spacious enough for a family of three. In the future, he planned to bring his parents back from abroad where they were receiving medical treatment…
Upon thinking of this, Dr. Xu was momentarily taken aback.
Elsewhere…
By the time Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen returned to the Chu Manor, it was already late at night.
The household and their three children were basically asleep, and they didn’t wake anyone else. As Shen Ruojing was about to go upstairs, Chu Cichen grabbed her wrist and led her toward the kitchen.
“Aren’t you hungry?” he asked.
Only then did Shen Ruojing touch her empty stomach.
Of course, she was hungry.
She hadn’t eaten anything ever since she left Rong Rong’s place that evening and went to the hospital to intercept Dr. Xu. At Chu Cichen’s reminder, her stomach started to growl.
Chu Cichen chuckled and then headed for the fridge.
He first took off his suit jacket and tossed it to Shen Ruojing.
She naturally caught it and placed it on a chair nearby. She then saw Chu Cichen roll up his shirt sleeves and take green onions and soy sauce from the fridge.
He asked, “Scallion oil noodles, okay? Or would you prefer soup noodles?”
“Noodles with sauce,” Shen Ruojing replied.
“Okay.” He then moved over to the chopping board.
His posture when cutting vegetables was very serious like he was working, which made him look particularly attractive.
Shen Ruojing stood by watching him.
Chu Cichen smirked. “What are you looking at?”
“Serious men are the most handsome,” Shen Ruojing said with a smile.
Without pausing his work, Chu Cichen responded, “Thanks for the compliment, wife.”
Shen Ruojing.”?”
Wife…?
Her face flushed slightly, her gaze becoming a bit uncomfortable.
Chu Cichen didn’t continue on this topic.
Once the onions were chopped, he heated the oil and made the scallion oil. Meanwhile, the water for the noodles was already boiling and he put the noodles in.
A bowl of scallion oil noodles was quickly made, its appetizing aroma whetting Shen Ruojing’s appetite.
Then Chu Cichen placed the bowl in front of her. “Try it.”
Shen Ruojing took a bite and couldn’t stop eating.
She always ate quickly, and now she was famished, so the bowl of noodles quickly filled her stomach. Only when she finished eating did she realize that Chu Cichen was looking at her intently.
Shen Ruojing.”…”
She subconsciously pulled out a napkin to wipe her mouth. After that, she couldn’t help but think. She didn’t make much noise when eating the noodles, did she?
As she was thinking this, Chu Cichen spoke up, “Did it taste good?”
“Delicious.”
“I can make noodles for you for a lifetime.”
Shen Ruojing was taken aback by his words.
She instinctively looked at Chu Cichen and saw the man sigh. “Your friends are about to get married. When will it be our turn? Jing Jing, I have… been waiting for too long.”
These words left Shen Ruojing in a flurry of thoughts.
There was even a moment when she felt a slight itch in her throat.
The light was somewhat dim, but the man’s face was resolute, and his eyes conveyed a serious look.
Shen Ruojing coughed once, intending to change the subject, but she found that she couldn’t say a word.
In fact, after she found out what really happened back then, she should have given Chu Cichen a response.
Always being ambiguous like this was too much.
She suddenly smiled. “After we’ve dealt with the Doom Organization, shall we have a wedding?”
Chu Cichen’s eyes lit up instantly. “Alright.”
After saying this, he held Shen Ruojing’s hand. “At that time, I’ll definitely give you a complete marriage proposal!”
“I don’t care about those things.” Shen Ruojing replied, “Actually, as long as our family of five can stay together, that’s enough.”
Chu Cichen extended his arm and embraced Shen Ruojing.
Outside, the night was thick and the crescent moon was shyly hiding.
Inside, the whole room was silent as the servants hadn’t come downstairs.
Shen Ruojing listened to Chu Cichen’s racing heartbeat, seemingly able to feel the man’s indescribable excitement at this moment.
She then looked up, meeting the man’s gaze that was intensely focused on her.
That look, as if he wanted to devour her…
Shen Ruojing swallowed her saliva, wanting to say something else, but Chu Cichen suddenly lowered his head, fervently claiming her lips…
An amorous atmosphere spread throughout the room…
Matriarch Chu woke up in the middle of the night, thinking that her son and daughter-in-law hadn’t returned, so she planned to go out and check on the three children. However, as she yawned and stepped out of her room, she saw the scene downstairs, which startled her so much that she stopped mid-yawn, her mouth gaping open.
Then, Matriarch Chu quietly retreated back into her room.
She couldn’t ruin such a good chance for her son!!!
