189 At The Moment Of Death, The Rarely Bold Ai Tingya
At six in the evening, Ai Tingya walked out of the cla.s.sroom with her bag on her back.
Today’s cla.s.s schedule coincided with the afternoon cla.s.ses. Ai Tingya did not want to skip cla.s.s on her birthday, so she agreed to meet Luo Feng in her new home at night.
After leaving the cla.s.sroom, the bone-chilling cold wind couldn’t wait to pour into her clothes. Ai Tingya shivered and hailed a taxi to stop. She reported the location and supported her chin with one hand as she looked at the gradually lit night lights on the street.
Previously, she had chatted with Barbara about giving Luo Feng a gift.
Barbara told Ai Tingya that she should give Luo Feng whatever he liked. Ai Tingya thought about it and came up with an answer that made her very shy.
Thinking of this, she subconsciously grabbed her collar again. Under the wide down jacket she was wearing was the gift she wanted to give Luo Feng today.
When they arrived at their house, Ai Tingya pinched her collar nervously.
The door was not closed tightly. A warm fragrance came from a small gap that was opened. The ambiguous orange-red light made Ai Tingya blush and her heart raced. She knew that Luo Feng would definitely prepare a surprise for her!
When she pushed the door open, she saw that the ground was covered in romantic rose petals, leaving a path to the living room. Ai Tingya smiled and walked along the path. Luo Feng had been waiting in the middle of the sea of flowers for a long time.
The room was dimly lit. Two fragrant candles were lit on the table, and an exquisite dinner and a birthday cake with swans and pearls were placed on the dining table.
“We’re… having candlelight dinner?” Ai Tingya had only seen it in television dramas.
“That’s right. Happy birthday to you, Tingya!” Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya to the table and pulled out a stool for her like a gentleman before spreading a napkin for her.
In the past, Luo Feng had brought Ai Tingya to high-end restaurants with thoughtful service. At that time, Ai Tingya only felt awkward and did not like to have someone waiting for instructions while she ate.
However, if Luo Feng were to do this, Ai Tingya would only feel an indescribable sweetness in her heart.
“The dishes I prepared for you today are Bamboo Reporting Safety, Immortal Fairy Tu Lian, and Fish Chasing The Moon Shadow. There are honey pine cakes for dessert.” Luo Feng introduced the dishes one by one. They were all Ai Tingya’s favorites and even had a nice name.
“By the way, I made these myself.” Luo Feng gave him a wink.
“Really? Amazing!” Ai Tingya’s eyes lit up with surprise.
This was the first time she had eaten Luo Feng’s cooking after being with him for so long. Previously, she had only heard a little about Luo Feng’s culinary skills. The reason why she did not have the chance to eat it was very simple— Luo Feng was very lazy.
“Thank you.” Ai Tingya hugged Luo Feng and smelled the cologne on his body. Her nose twitched and she looked up at Luo Feng. “Why do I feel that you’re especially hard working today?”
Luo Feng rarely dressed up. It was rare for him to wear such a grand outfit.
Luo Feng wanted to say that of course he had to be more hardworking when proposing. He definitely had to dress up.
“I’m hardworking just because I made you a meal? Is it because I’m not good to you usually?” Luo Feng scratched Ai Tingya’s nose and said dotingly, “You’re the smartest.”
“Hehe.” Ai Tingya thought so too.
She put down the doubts in her heart and picked up a pair of chopsticks to put in her mouth. “Delicious!”
Ai Tingya’s cheeks were bulging like a little squirrel. She was very supportive.
Luo Feng only stroked her head when he saw her blissful face. He knew that his cooking was average. It was neither delicious nor unpalatable. Ai Tingya liked it so much because she loved him.
Seeing that Ai Tingya could not stop eating, Luo Feng stopped her and said, “Tingya, we still have to save some stomach for the cake.”
“Haha, I almost forgot. But these dishes…” Ai Tingya only thought that Luo Feng had made them himself and wanted to eat them all. She almost forgot that there was a birthday cake.
“I’ll make more for you in the future.” Luo Feng held her hand and said, “Come here first.”
The two of them walked to the coffee table and sat on the ground. Luo Feng lit the birthday candle. The bean-sized flame flickered in Ai Tingya’s eyes. Ai Tingya clasped her hands and closed her eyes to make a wish quietly.
After a while, she opened her eyes and gently blew out the candle.
“What wish did you make?” Luo Feng was a little curious.
“It won’t work if I tell you!” Ai Tingya pouted and subconsciously grabbed her collar again.
Luo Feng did not need to think too much about it seeing her shy face. He knew that this wish was most likely related to him.
Luo Feng looked at the time. It was time for the highlight! He secretly called Mother Luo. The phone rang three times before hanging up. He punched out the secret signal.
It was time to propose!
He grabbed the small square box in his pocket. “Tingya, I…”
“Actually, I’ve also prepared a small gift for you.” Ai Tingya suddenly interrupted Luo Feng.
“Aye?”
Before Luo Feng could react, he saw Ai Tingya take off her wide down jacket. She was actually wearing a pure white cheongsam!
A cheongsam was already very revealing of her figure. In addition, Ai Tingya had become more nutritious after entering university and had developed very well in all aspects.
At this moment, she was curvy. Just one look at her made one’s blood boil! Luo Feng could not take his eyes off her as he watched Ai Tingya gradually approach.
Moreover, this cheongsam seemed to have been custom-made by Ai Tingya. The plum blossom buckle on her neck had turned into a small red bow, like a ribbon on a gift.
As she had said, she was waiting for Luo Feng to open the gift.
“Do… Do you like it?” Ai Tingya asked softly with a red face.
Luo Feng’s mind was blank. The most serious problem now was not whether he liked it or not…
He did not respond for a long time. Ai Tingya was exposed to his gaze. She felt ashamed and said uneasily, “Don’t… don’t you like it?”
She had mustered all her courage!
“Uh… I do like it, but…” Luo Feng’s eyes moved away from Ai Tingya’s bow and looked ahead.
Father Luo, Mother Luo, and Ai Zhaojiang stood a meter away. The three of them looked at the bold couple silently with their six eyes.
The living room was filled with a strange silence. Ai Tingya turned her head stiffly and her mind exploded!
There was only one sentence left in her mind. “Is it too late to leave the Earth now?”
Luo Feng reacted even faster. He picked up the down jacket and put it on Ai Tingya again. His heart was beating wildly. On the surface, he pretended that nothing had happened and tried to ease the atmosphere. “Tingya, my parents and Professor Ai are here to celebrate your birthday.”
Ai Tingya covered her face. She was so regretful that she forgot to greet them.
She regretted it so much that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
She almost walked into a tiger’s den the last time she heeded Barbara’s suggestion. Why didn’t she learn her lesson!
Ai Tingya was extremely glad that she had chosen the most proper cheongsam among the clothes Barbara had prepared for her. If she had worn other hot clothes, she would have died on the spot!
She covered her face with both hands and peeped at the three adults who had appeared out of her expectations through her fingers. She was so embarra.s.sed that she did not dare to look at anyone.
