It was nearly ten o’clock at night.

After dinner, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo strolled hand in hand down the bustling Commercial Street.

A few bodyguards in the distance kept a vigilant eye on the surroundings.

The two of them, even in silence, didn’t feel awkward but rather a sense of inexplicable peace and tranquility.

“Brother Xu, are you preoccupied with something?” An Nuonuo suddenly asked.

“Not at all, why do you ask?”

“I just felt like you were a bit distracted tonight.”

Jiang Xu thought to himself that An Nuonuo’s perception was really sharp; she had noticed even his slightest abnormality.

He said with a smile, “Well, there is something, I’ve been thinking about cash

concerns.”

An Nuonuo didn’t say any comforting words.

She simply made up her mind in silence.

When she got back, she would ask the sisters from the Hundred Flowers Club if there were any quick ways to make money or channels available.

She wanted to earn more money through her own efforts to help Jiang Xu out.

If An Feng knew about An Nuonuo’s thoughts, he would surely be moved to tears and say, “Good daughter, you’ve finally stopped fleecing your dad for your boyfriend.”

Unknowingly, they reached the outside of the school.

“Hey, that’s strange,” An Nuonuo looked around and commented, “why is there nobody at the entrance?”

It was Friday, and there should be a break tomorrow; there should be a lot of people around.

Jiang Xu feigned ignorance, “I’m not sure, maybe there’s some juicy gossip inside the school? Let’s go in and check it out.”

In fact, all the students, after learning about Jiang Xu’s plan to propose to An

Nuonuo that evening, stayed away from the school gates, wanting to catch the freshest gossip.

The two entered the school.

Jiang Xu let go of An Nuonuo’s hand, “Wait here for a moment, I need to go to

the restroom.”

“Ah, aren’t we almost at the dorm?”

“Can’t hold it anymore.”

Without waiting for An Nuonuo to reply, Jiang Xu ran off. f𝗿𝚎eweb𝗻o𝐯𝐞l.𝚌om

An Nuonuo felt something was off but couldn’t quite put her finger on it.

“Snap!”

Just after Jiang Xu left, all the lights around suddenly went out, plunging the area into pitch darkness.

An Nuonuo was startled and instinctively shrank her neck.

The darkness lasted less than three seconds before a few lights appeared before her eyes.

The light came from a sign, with a glowing arrow pointing straight ahead.

An Nuonuo, curious, cautiously walked forward.

She hadn’t gone far when she exclaimed in surprise.

There was a layer of rose petals on the ground ahead of her.

She quickly stopped, not daring to step on them.

At that moment, another sign lit up in front of her.

Besides an arrow, there was a line of words: Miss An Nuonuo, please walk forward.

An Nuonuo had a head full of question marks, yet she didn’t move forward.

Because her first thought was that another boy wanted to confess his feelings

for her.

She wanted to call Jiang Xu.

Reaching into her pocket, she remembered her phone was with Jiang Xu.

So she decided to turn around and leave.

“Nuonuo, go ahead,” Xia Xiaozhan popped out from somewhere and said to An

Nuonuo, “This is a surprise your boyfriend arranged for you.”

An Nuonuo was taken aback.

Then she remembered how Jiang Xu seemed a bit distracted during dinner.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, her mood incredibly joyful.

So this was a surprise for her.

Only then did she continue walking forward.

All along the way, the fragrance of flowers filled the air.

On both sides of the path hung photo after photo, belonging to Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo together.

There are photos of them traveling, eating together, attending school together, and some from their high school days, and a few that Jiang Xu sneakily took.

An Nuonuo walked very slowly.

She looked at every single photo with great care, ripples of emotion welling up in her heart.

These photos were all beautiful memories between two people.

After an indeterminate amount of time, An Nuonuo arrived at the front of the school auditorium, on a large open space.

Accompanied by a series of continuous clicking sounds, the lights all around suddenly lit up.

An Nuonuo looked around, the surprise in her eyes growing more intense.

She found herself standing amidst a sea of flowers.

Composed of countless roses, they formed a gigantic heart-shaped pattern. Then many students started to emerge from all directions, holding glow sticks. The glow sticks waved back and forth, like a sky full of stars twinkling, dazzling and captivating.

An Nuonuo saw several of her roommates and classmates from her course.

She couldn’t help but cover her mouth.

Immediately after, a spotlight shone just five meters in front of An Nuonuo. Under the spotlight, Jiang Xu, dressed in formal attire, with an upright and imposing posture, was holding flowers and steadily walking toward An Nuonuo.

His eyes were determined, and his gaze fixed solely on An Nuonuo.

As their eyes met, the rich and undissolvable affection quickly spread out.

The short distance of a few meters felt to Jiang Xu as if he had walked a century.

He was unusually nervous, his heartbeat accelerating.

No matter the lifetime, a public proposal was a first for him.

Even though he knew An Nuonuo couldn’t possibly refuse, he still couldn’t avoid feeling anxious and fearful of losing her.

Finally, Jiang Xu stood in front of An Nuonuo.

An Nuonuo moved her lips, wanting to speak.

But Jiang Xu placed a finger on her lips.

He spoke softly, “Nuonuo, we’ve known each other for almost three years now. From being strangers at first to becoming familiar, gradually confiding in each other, starting a business together during the summer vacation, studying together, and having our secret base.

Every spring, summer, autumn, and winter I spent with you, every day, has a unique meaning to me…”

These were heartfelt words from Jiang Xu.

He’d never said them before, and now, speaking them in front of the entire school made An Nuonuo incredibly moved.

Tears began to well up in her eyes.

Jiang Xiaoyan hurriedly squeezed into the crowd, stunned by the scene in front of her.

She was supposed to be at the company.

But when she suddenly saw in the teacher’s group chat that Jiang Xu was going to propose to An Nuonuo tonight, she dropped everything and rushed over as fast as she could.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, knowing that Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo were bound to get to this point, actually witnessing it was still unbearably painful.

It felt like a boulder weighing tons was pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.

Jiang Xiaoyan involuntarily clutched her heart, biting her teeth tightly.

In that moment, a violent emotion surged through her.

She wanted to obliterate the couple in front of her eyes.

She even wanted to rush forward and stop Jiang Xu from proposing.

If I can’t have it, no one else can.

But the last bit of rationality told her not to do it.

Otherwise, she would lose any chance of being with Jiang Xu forever.

Tears streamed down her eyes.

“It hurts so much,” Jiang Xiaoyan murmured to herself.

And then, she…
