Chapter 304 - 305: I’m So Scared

Chapter 304: Chapter 305: I’m So Scared

She raised her eyebrows, not denying it, "So ... what are you going to do?"

"Of course, punishment!"

"Yeah!" she smirked, "Oh dear, the Duke is mad, I’m so scared!"

He couldn’t help grinning as he pulled her into his embrace, and leaned in to gently nibble on her neck.

"Wretched woman!"

If it had been anyone else, touching his things without his permission would naturally have terrible consequences.

But her, what could he do to her?

Even if she infuriated him to death, he could only vent his anger on himself; how could he bear to actually lay a finger on her?

Thinking about it, he, Huangfu Jue, who had half a life with no attachments, must have owed her from a past life to have ended up in the hands of such an exasperating wretched woman.

It was really ... both annoying and delightful.

She drew back her neck to dodge, her arms touched his pajamas and felt something poking her. She instinctively moved her fingers to remove the offending object, reaching in only to find a small, squarely shaped box.

A cell phone? It wasn’t that small.

A lighter? It wasn’t that thick.

...

"What’s in your pocket?"

Damn it!

Huangfu Jue cursed inwardly and reached over to grab her hand.

Although he would have preferred to just take the ring and slip it onto her finger directly, those guys did have a point.

Women are emotional creatures; they prefer things with romance. These special rings should be presented in a special way.

"Just remembered I still have something to do." After kissing her hand gently, he propped himself up from the bed, "Go take a shower, and then we’ll go downstairs to eat. Afterwards, I have something to show you."

"What thing?" she asked, puzzled.

The man smiled inscrutably, "You’ll know in a bit. Now, obediently go take a shower!"

Gan Yuan eyed his pocket, estimating that the small box was only a few centimeters square, its size ...

"Or, would you like me to help you?" the man asked with a smile.

She averted her gaze and pulled his shirt over herself, "I don’t want to!"

Watching her enter the bathroom, Huangfu Jue took out the ring box to check it for damage. Finding none, he sighed a sigh of relief.

Dating is such a hassle!

If two people truly loved each other, why bother with formalities? All she needed to say was "I do", and that would be enough, instead of spouting sweet nothings in front of everyone, which when he thought about it, felt unbearably tacky and boring.

However ... he looked up at the closed bathroom door, the corners of his mouth lifting again, if it made her happy, then no matter how mundane, he was willing to try.

He went to the walk-in closet and carefully slipped on shirt after shirt from the rack.

Looking at his handsome reflection in the mirror, Huangfu Jue took the ring in his hand and opened it.

"Marry me, Gan Yuan!"

The tone sounded a bit too commanding.

"Will you marry me, Gan Yuan?"

He switched to a gentler tone.

But calling Gan Yuan seemed a bit too formal.

"Let’s get married?"

That came off as too dry; don’t all girls like sweet talk?

...

A simple sentence, yet after several attempts he was still not satisfied.

...

Looking down at the ring in his hand, Huangfu Jue furrowed his brows in frustration.

Whoever invented proposals, if two people were in love, they could just go and register for marriage, why fuss with all these unnecessary complications.

Outside the closet, his mobile phone rang on the table.

Closing the ring box and putting it away, he walked out of the closet, picked up the phone, his voice edged with restlessness.

"What is it?"

On the phone was Will’s voice.

"Sir ... everything’s ready!"
