Chapter 469: Engagement ceremony

The little bun, with his innocent eyes and a joyful grin, looked up at his father and Auntie Yan, holding the tray with care and excitement. He knew that from now on, his sister Yan would be included in their family forever. She would also soon become his mother...

Mother...

Tears glistened in the little one’s eyes as he thought of having a mother. No matter how strong he was, he did not have it easy because of not having a mother. Whenever he fell down while trying to walk, his mother was not there to pick him up. Instead, he was picked up by the servants of the house.

Whenever he was scared or had nightmares, he did not have a mother whose soothing voice and comforting presence acted like a shield against the darkness.

The servants cooked the meal but the warmth of a mother’s love was missing from every meal. Nobody attended the parents’ meeting from his side at his school. As Xi Ting was very busy, he could not be present for the little guy every time. Moreover, the little bun restricted his naughtiness and mischiefs so that nobody would be bothered by his teachers. If his mother was present, he could do anything freely as she would always take care of everything.

He got everything he needed, except for a mother’s love. Madam Xi treated him very well, but even she could not fulfill the role of a mother.

The little bun wiped his tears silently and smiled happily. He was finally getting a mother. Yay!!!

Meanwhile, Xi Ting, resplendent in his meticulously tailored formal attire, moved forward with a grace that seemed to transcend time itself. His every step carried the weight of centuries of tradition and the profound depth of his love for Qin Yan. As he reached the center of the stage, a hushed anticipation swept through the gathered guests. The hall fell silent, and every eye was riveted on the couple, their collective breath held in sweet anticipation.

Then, in a heart-stopping moment that seemed to suspend time itself, Xi Ting, the richest man of the country, knelt down on one knee before Qin Yan. The world around them seemed to fade into the background as the dramatic spotlight of love shone upon them. The lanterns cast long, dramatic shadows, and the soft notes of the guzheng, like the whispers of ancient spirits, filled the air.

The guests, caught in the spellbinding drama of the moment, were captivated by the sheer intensity of love and commitment that radiated from the couple. It was as if the entire universe had conspired to create this breathtaking scene of passion and devotion.

Xi Ting then gazed into Qin Yan’s eyes, "Yan Yan, from the moment I met you, my life has been filled with love, laughter, and a sense of completeness that I never knew was possible. You are the love of my life, my confidante, and my unwavering support. I really can’t imagine a future without you."

Qin Yan, her eyes shimmering with emotion, listened intently to Xi Ting’s heartfelt words. Her heart swelled with love, and she was overcome with a profound sense of happiness.

Xi Ting opened one of the velvet boxes, revealing a stunning ring, "My cookie, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?"

The engagement ring, an exquisite masterpiece adorned with a brilliant, flawless diamond of remarkable size and clarity, was set in a band crafted from the purest, lustrous platinum. The diamond, radiating a mesmerizing play of light from its multifaceted facets, seemed to capture the very essence of celestial stars, its value beyond measure. Its flawless surface held a deep, mesmerizing sparkle that could only be rivaled by the brightest of stars in the night sky, symbolizing not just a bright but an opulent and dazzling future together.

Qin Yan with tears of joy in her eyes, nodded enthusiastically. Her voice trembled with emotion as she responded, "Yes, moonpie, a thousand times yes!"

The guests erupted into applause and cheers; their faces lit up with happiness for the couple. Xi Ting carefully slid the engagement ring onto Qin Yan’s finger, sealing their commitment with a loving and tender kiss.

Xi Xiaobao, feeling like a little hero, held out the tray with the second velvet box containing Qin Yan’s engagement ring.

In a touching and reciprocal gesture of love and commitment, Qin Yan, her eyes brimming with emotion, mirrored Xi Ting’s earlier actions. She gracefully lowered herself to one knee, her heart singing with love and anticipation.

With a trembling hand, she reached for the second velvet box containing Xi Ting’s engagement ring, a symbol of her promise to him. The guests, still caught in the enchantment of the moment, watched in hushed reverence as Qin Yan, in a display of her deep affection, held out the ring towards Xi Ting.

As Qin Yan gracefully knelt before him, mirroring his earlier gesture, Xi Ting’s heart skipped a beat. He was utterly taken aback, stunned by the depth of her love and the sincerity of her commitment. His eyes widened with surprise, and for a moment, time seemed to stand still as he absorbed the profoundness of the moment.

The guests, too, were held in a collective moment of astonishment, their breaths caught in their throats as they witnessed this unexpected turn of events. The courtyard, once filled with the soft notes of the guzheng and the murmurs of the guests, was now hushed, the only sound the beating of hearts filled with emotion.

Qin Yan’s voice too was filled with emotion, "My dearest moonpie, just as you are the love of my life, my confidante, and my unwavering support, I kneel before you, ready to embark on this extraordinary journey together. Will you accept this ring as a symbol of my love and commitment to you?"

Xi Ting, his voice barely above a whisper, managed to find his words amidst the overwhelming rush of feelings.

Xi Ting replied almost in disbelief, "Yan Yan..."

He couldn’t help but be moved by this beautiful and unexpected gesture of love from the woman he cherished above all else. His eyes glistened with tears of joy and realization as he extended his hand, his heart brimming with love and acceptance.

He replied softly, "Yes, Yan Yan, I accept with all my heart. I will always keep you happy."

As Qin Yan gently slid the engagement ring onto Xi Ting’s finger, sealing their commitment. The hall erupted into applause and cheers.

Looking into each other’s eyes, without saying anything, catering to the loud shouts of the crowd, the couple began to get closer to each other.

At first, it was just a light kiss on the lips, just like when they first confirmed their relationship. They were cautious, obviously wanting to get to know each other better, but were afraid to scare each other because of their recklessness.

After the first try, Xi Ting slowly became more assertive. He was no longer satisfied with light kiss, as he started kissing Qin Yan deeper.

The couple was so focused on their kiss that the rest of the world faded away. They had no idea that in the eyes of others, they were like a beautiful painting, serene and harmonious. No one wanted to interrupt them.

And of course, this was only what the adults thought. As for the little one, who was still holding the ring box beside them and watching the couple kiss, all he could think of was they were kissing each other and how could they not kiss him too!

"Daddy, Sister Yan, I want a kiss too," The little guy’s call broke the silence within the hall and brought the kissing couple back to their senses.

Only then did Qin Yan realize that she was kissing Xi Ting in front of little children. Her cheeks turned blood red...

She hesitated a little and exchanged glances with Xi Ting. After seeing the smile in each other’s eyes, the corner of her lips hooked, she bent down and hugged the little bun. Then, she whispered, "Alright. Daddy and I will kiss you too." After she said that, she kissed the little guy on his cheek hard.

The little one nodded in satisfaction and turned to look at Xi Ting.

Xi Ting looked at his son’s adorable face, his eyes quickly took on a trace of resignation and doting. He lowered his head and gave the little guy a kiss on another side of his face.

The little bun was stunned. He touched his cheek that was kissed by Xi Ting. It took him a long time to come around before he started to giggle cheerfully.

The people present were infected by the family’s warm moment. They watched them with a faint smile on their face, not wanting to interrupt this moment.

The joy that permeated the engagement ceremony was infectious, spreading like wildfire among the members of the Xi family and their guests.

Mother Xi and Grandma Xi, looked on with smiles that radiated pride and contentment. Mother Xi’s earlier reservations had completely melted away, replaced by an overwhelming happiness for her son and his future wife.
