Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Late-night snacks were eaten in a small alley near Imperial Capital University. The place was bustling with people. On such a cold day, there were still so many people and vendors in this brightly lit alley.
Shen Xiaoxiao had never thought that Yan Kuan would actually bring her to eat at a roadside stall.
Of course, Yan Kuan would not tell her that in the previous half an hour, the few of them had already arranged nearly 100 messages to him about dating girls.
One of the most popular ways for ordinary people to date was to go to the snack street.
And ina season like this, the only snack street that was still bustling was this place near Imperial Capital University.
Although Yan Kuan was skeptical about the hygiene here, every stall here was packed.
Everyone was eating enthusiastically. Although Yan Kuan wore a black tweed coat and looked like a successful person, there were quite a few people who dressed like this.
‘Therefore, Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao’s appearance here was not out of the ordinary. At most, they were handsome men and pretty women.
“I didn’t expect that there would be such a place in the capital. I thought that the hundun stall that I often went to with 19 was the best food, but there are actually so many delicious things here.”
“I’m going to eat all over this street today.”
Yan Kuan smiled. If she wanted to eat, she could eat. He had deliberately brought a lot of cash with him today. It was enough for her to eat.
“If you like to eat, then so be it. But you can’t eat the food here every day.”
“Lknow, I know. So long-winded.”
Yan Kuan looked at this energetic woman dotingly. It seemed that other than getting angry and fighting, this was the first time he had seen her so excited.
‘Walking behind her, a hand held her firmly. Every time they came to a stall, they would stop. Seeing that she was eating happily, he was also happy. Occasionally, she would turn around and feed him some.
At first, he was a little reluctant, but when the little thing looked at him with her small eyes, he could only accept his fate and open his mouth.
Forget it. As long as she was happy, it was fine, even though he did not think that the food was very delicious.
However, the atmosphere here was really good. It was just that it was not delicious. The person who ate it would also think that they were holding a mountain of delicacies.
Sometimes, it did not matter how rich you were. As long as you felt it, even if two people shared a bowl of noodles, it was still happiness.
Yan Kuan looked at the man at the stall next to him, who was standing there with a bowl of noodles in his hands because there was no seat, helping the woman beside him eat happily. Suddenly, he wanted to do the same.
“Eat that.”
This was the first time Yan Kuan had said what he wanted to eat tonight. Shen Xiaoxiao naturally cooperated and immediately went over to ask for a bowl of noodles.
However, the business of this stall was too good. There were no seats at all. Initially, Shen Xiaoxiao thought that Yan Kuan was going to be angry again. She didn’t expect this man to actually hold the bowl of noodles in his hands and pa.s.s it to her.
Wasn’t it hot?
“Eat it, I’ll hold it for you.”
“Silly, it’s hot.”
“It’s not hot. Hurry up and eat it while it’s hot.”
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. For some reason, this scene made her have the urge to cry.
Yan Kuan could feel every bit of emotional fluctuation of Shen Xiaoxiao. It was the same at this moment. It turned out that these seemingly silly actions could actually make Xiaoxiao so happy.
“Handsome man, beautiful woman, there are seats over there. Don’t stand here.”
Of course, such voices always appeared during these romantic times. Shen Xiaoxiao had only eaten a few mouthfuls of noodles. When she heard the boss say this, she immediately turned her head and looked over.
However, Yan Kuan turned his head and glared fiercely at the boss. Was he blind? Didn’t he see that he was trying to earn a performance?
‘The boss was so frightened by Yan Kuan’s glare that his neck shrank. He resigned himself to his fate and went to cook the noodles. Young people nowadays really had their own set of ways to woo girls. He had even used the bitter-meat tactic, yet he didn’t mind the hot hand hurting.
Shen Xiaoxiao just happened to see this scene. She really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Was this really worth it?
However, she knew how hot the noodles were. However, seeing that his hand was already red and didn’t move at all, she simply picked up the chopsticks and started eating quickly.
“Eat slowly. If you don’t have enough, just order another bowl. It’s so hot.”
“Eat faster so that we can eat other good things.”
Shen Xiaoxiao naturally wouldn’t tell the truth. However, her little face was indeed so red that it made his heart ache. Did this little thing think that he didn’t know what she was thinking?
Yan Kuan simply s.n.a.t.c.hed the chopsticks from Shen Xiaoxiao’s hands. Without looking at her, he held the bowl in one hand and carefully picked up the noodles with the other hand to cool them before pa.s.sing them to her mouth.
“Eat, it won’t be hot this way.”
In such a noisy place, this man blew the noodles and placed them into her mouth one mouthful at a time. Shen Xiaoxiao only felt that she had never felt so warm in the winter night. She was actually very happy.
After finis.h.i.+ng the noodles, Yan Kuan made a move that Shen Xiaoxiao would never have thought of. He held the bow! that only had the noodle soup left and gulped down the entire bowl of noodle soup.
Shen Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded when she saw this. Where was this man’s obsession with cleanliness? Where was this man’s obsession with not eating roadside stalls?
‘What was he doing?
“Why, why are you drinking my leftover noodle soup?”
Yan Kuan drank every drop of the noodle soup. When he was done, he even blinked his mouth and said, “The taste is not bad. From now on, you eat the noodles and I’ll drink the soup.”
Alright, Shen Xiaoxiao was actually very touched. It was just that this scene was really fake, but she was really touched that it was so fake.
“What a fool.”
Shen Xiaoxiao reached out to help him wipe the corner of his lips. The two of them stood at the corner of the snack street and warmed up the entire winter.
“You’re the fool. I didn’t do anything to tie you to my side and make you suffer for giving birth to my children.”
“Lhave a bad temper, but you always put up with it. I don’t know how to sweet-talk you, nor do I know how to coax you. I don’t even know you. You always take the initiative to take a step forward. Back then, when you said love, you were the one who spoke first.”
“Something happened to me, and you helped me shoulder all the burdens. Something happened to you, but I was never by your side. I haven’t worried for a day in the lives of my two children, and I always made you angry and worried.”
“When we got married, you said that no one had ever been married without a proposal. Xiaoxiao, I owe you so much.”
After saying this, Yan Kuan took out the vulgar rose made of gold that he had prepared for the whole night from his pocket, and knelt on one knee on the ground.
His actions caused the people around him to cry out in surprise. When someone proposed to someone, they would always be surrounded and watched by others.
“Xiaoxiao, please marry me. I will accompany you for the rest of your life. No, I will accompany you for the rest of my life. In the future, I will be responsible for earning money to support my family. You will be responsible for being as beautiful as a flower. I will not let you suffer any more hards.h.i.+ps. I
swear that I will use my life to love you and our children. Please marry me.”
“Marry him, marry him, marry him.
Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect Yan Kuan to give her such a pleasant surprise in such a place and on such an occasion. It was really a pleasant surprise. She was so surprised that she did not know that there were times when tears could not be controlled.
Looking at the person kneeling in front of her. Could she say no?
She was willing, a thousand times willing…
