Chapter 235 - 236 My Princess (12)
Lou Xi initially didn’t understand what Qin Mobai was saying. It wasn’t until she was about to take the dishes back to the kitchen that she discovered the pizza takeout bag in the trash can.
So, Grandma had already eaten, and the dishes on the table were just set up for show.
Lou Xi: "..."
"Alright, stop tidying up, take a shower and go to sleep. I’m tired." Qin Mobai pulled Lou Xi over and immediately drew her into his embrace.
"I have to go sleep with Grandma, otherwise she’ll get upset again."
"It seems like ever since Grandma arrived, your heart and mind are only set on her. Can you even see me, hm?" Qin Mobai hooked his hand around Lou Xi’s waist and pretended to be angry as he asked.
"You’ve always been in my heart, right here!" Lou Xi pointed to her heart, "Young Master Qin gets jealous so easily, but you must know, you’re the only one in my heart, really, you don’t have to worry."
Lou Xi blinked. She didn’t mind telling Qin Mobai again and again where her heart lay, because love is meant to be voiced!
Qin Mobai wasn’t truly angry; he just... enjoyed hearing Lou Xi say she liked him.
Perhaps, just as Lou Xi thought, love is meant to be expressed aloud.
"Yes, I know, my princess." Qin Mobai kissed the corner of her mouth—a pure kiss, absent of any desire. "But my princess, it’s really late, come take a shower and sleep with me."
"Ahem—" Just when Qin Mobai was about to successfully coax Lou Xi into his room, the old lady suddenly appeared.
Hearing the cough, Lou Xi immediately pushed Qin Mobai away and looked at the old lady with a serious expression.
"It’s late, hurry and come to bed, or you’ll wake me up when you come in after I’ve fallen asleep!" The old lady was acting like she was going to drag her in to sleep!
"Grandma." Qin Mobai called out to the old lady, "She will sleep with me."
"She’ll sleep with me!" The old lady seemed to be set on opposing Qin Mobai, insisting on sleeping with Lou Xi!
"If you don’t want to hold your great-grandchild soon, then let her sleep with you." Alright, Qin Mobai played his trump card.
And at that moment, the old lady suddenly caught sight of the ring on Lou Xi’s finger.
It was a diamond ring!
A diamond ring only used for proposals. She hadn’t seen it on Lou Xi’s finger yesterday, but today it was there!
So, her grandson had proposed to Lou Xi?
The old lady held her head, looking as if she was about to faint, and turned to go back into her room, murmuring something about her heart aching.
Lou Xi turned her head to look at Qin Mobai and asked, "Grandma said her heart hurts, should we call the doctor?"
"Don’t let her fool you." After saying that, Qin Mobai directly took Lou Xi back to the room; either way, he wasn’t going to let Lou Xi continue sleeping with the old lady, otherwise he really wouldn’t be able to fall asleep!
After returning to the room, they simply took a shower together, and after the shower, he hugged her to bed, wrapping his arms around her and quickly falling asleep.
Even though Lou Xi felt tired, she couldn’t fall asleep.
She thought about the ring on her finger, the proposal earlier, the man holding her.
And she thought about meeting Shen Ruozhuo at the hospital.
That night, Lou Xi dreamed a lot—everyone she knew was there, as if attending her and Qin Mobai’s wedding, but... in the end, the wedding didn’t happen.
