A Crazy Love Proposal
Chapter 191 - 191 104 proof will take at least half an hour

Chapter 191: Chapter 104 proof will take at least half an hour. Chapter 191: Chapter 104 proof will take at least half an hour. She was like a cinnabar-red rose, plump before blooming. Once the flower opened, its twisted branches were delicate with an antique charm, the serrated green leaves small and exquisite, yet the branch tips bore such grand and vivid buds.

Roses and roses belong to the same rose family; their complex, overlapping petals are gorgeous and richly colored, and many varieties of roses are just as charming as roses.

She was as likable as the rose, and her thorns were not as numerous as those of the rose.

Because she hadn’t exercised, she was very soft, her skin as smooth as mutton fat jade. Wen Yangzhi’s hand, wherever it touched, would press down softly, like the tender petals of a rose, leaving an imprint.

Wen Yangzhi’s phone rang. He was about to hang up, but seeing that it was Zhao Qin calling, he swiped his finger and deliberately answered beside Yun Yuwan:

“What’s the matter?”

Zhao Qin’s voice was cautious, with a pleasing tone, “Hong Sheng, ask your sister to come home early after the dinner.”

Wen Yangzhi, holding Yun Yuwan whose clothes covered only five percent of her, glanced at her and said languidly,

“You ask her if she wants to go home.”

Wen Yangzhi lightly slapped her bottom, and Zhao Qin on the other end heard a “smack,” not especially loud, like swatting a mosquito on the arm or like the sound of a spark exploding or stepping on a dry banana leaf.

But Zhao Qin didn’t think much of it.

And Yun Yuwan, being touched by him, would have made anyone blush at seeing such a scene.

Wen Yangzhi softly called her, “Speak.”

Although his tone was gentle, in Yun Yuwan’s ears, it was intimate, and in Zhao Qin’s ears, it was commanding and forceful. She unconsciously tried to empathize with Yun Yuwan’s feelings, tempted to tell Wen Yangzhi to speak nicely to his sister.

But Yun Yuwan quickly responded, not giving her a chance, her voice close and muffled, “I’m sleeping here at my brother’s tonight.”

Zhao Qin felt something was odd because as soon as Wen Yangzhi said to let Yun Yuwan speak, her voice came through immediately, as if they were already very close. But logically, given their relation, they shouldn’t be.

…Perhaps there was something she didn’t know, maybe they were sitting together at the dinner.

Or maybe, Yuwan was very afraid of Hong Sheng, and she came over as soon as he spoke.

Zhao Qin sighed inwardly,

“Alright, you sleep there at your brother’s tonight, and in a few days, I want to take you to other parties, to visit people’s homes.”

Yun Yuwan was a bit surprised because Zhao Qin never took her to these places.

“Um… What should I wear?”

Zhao Qin: “I’ve already picked out an outfit for you, you can just wear it when the time comes.”

Yun Yuwan was flattered and for a moment thought she had heard wrong.

Auntie Qin had put together clothes for her?

It had been a long time since anyone had done that for her; it used to be her mother who would arrange the clothes she would wear to school the next day, placing them by her bedside.

She had a strange feeling inside, slow and gradual, like a stream flowing serenely through the mountains.

Auntie Qin… Auntie Qin had put together clothes for her.

How strange.

Zhao Qin indirectly probed to test if their relationship had softened, “Did you and your brother have a good chat at the dinner?”

Wen Yangzhi’s hand was on her heart, her body felt as if it was electrified, and Yun Yuwan endured, her voice muffled,

“Pretty good. Hong Sheng brother is very kind to me.”

Wen Yangzhi looked down at her as if to reward her, caressed her cheek.

Zhao Qin was somewhat surprised, but then she thought that maybe because Wen Yangzhi was nearby, Yun Yuwan couldn’t speak freely about how he treated her.

Even to please Hong Sheng, she could only answer her that way.

This thought seemed reasonable.

Indeed, their relationship was still as water and fire.

And at this moment, the two, as fiery as water and as deep as fire, were embracing closely.

Listening to Zhao Qin intentionally speaking for Wen Yangzhi to hear, “I asked Wang Ma to prepare bird’s nest and jujube porridge for you, with some Chinese herbs. The ingredients are all ready, you can drink it when you come back.”

“Okay,” Yun Yuwan responded, but her voice unconsciously became dull, “Thank you, Auntie.”

Wen Yangzhi hung up the phone directly, bringing her back to reality in an instant.

His hand roamed over her, and Yun Yuwan, unable to control her own naive tenderness like a young animal, pressed her chin down. Even though she knew everything, her big eyes looked at him as if she understood nothing,

“What are you going to do?”

He loosened the ties behind her, whispering, “Lull you to sleep.”

The trumpet creeper on the full-view glass balcony trembled.

When Yun Yuwan got up the next day, she saw Wen Yangzhi wearing pajamas, standing on the outside balcony with pruning shears, neatly cutting off a thick branch without deviation, leaving a neat stump.

With one cut, he removed all the plant’s growth disadvantages.

She had never taught him how to thin out the branches, yet he pruned so cleanly, removing any extraneous ones.

Yun Yuwan was somewhat surprised.

So he knew how.

His style was completely different from hers; if it were her doing the pruning, she would spend over ten minutes doing it precisely until it was both good-looking and healthy.

Wen Yangzhi targeted only the worst among the disordered branches, even if it meant wrongly cutting a bit that shouldn’t be, but he had eliminated the problem at its root.

His indifferent style was just like him.

Watching as he carelessly placed the shears on the balcony table and not knowing to whom he was sending a message,

the room brightened with the removal of those tangled branches, sunlight not as obstructed, and Yun Yuwan’s frizzy hair illuminated distinctly.

Wen Yangzhi entered the room, seeing the frizzy-haired Yun Yuwan staring blankly at him, he said lightly, “You’re awake.”

She nodded.

He didn’t pay much attention to her, going to the bathroom to freshen up.

When he came out, he saw Yun Yuwan holding his iPad, focused on something.

Wen Yangzhi buttoned his dress shirt in front of the mirror. “What are you looking at?”

She chuckled, her face rippling with amusement. “Admiring photos of myself on your iPad.”

Wen Yangzhi, unable to comprehend Yun Yuwan’s self-confidence in life: “…”

After a while, Wen Yangzhi changed and came out to see that she was still playing, her hair so voluminous that it looked frizzy like the cute otaku female characters in comics upon waking up, but there she was, casually admiring herself.

Wen Yangzhi found her unexpectedly adorable:

“Still admiring?”

Yun Yuwan shook her head and turned the iPad screen towards him.

On the screen, a group of fearless people were handling a king cobra, thicker than Wen Yangzhi’s calf, three to four meters long, standing taller than Yun Yuwan’s calf.

Wen Yangzhi: “…”

Stoic as a pine, he asked, “Why are you looking at this?”

Yun Yuwan turned the tablet back to herself, holding it, and said something shocking: “Actually, I want to keep a snake too.”

This was so incongruous with Yun Yuwan’s persona that Wen Yangzhi was slightly surprised, raising his eyebrows:

“Sure you can take care of it?”

She rested her chin on her hand. “I think I can control it.”

Wen Yangzhi watched her sitting there.

On the spacious bed, she seemed to take up so little space, just a tiny bit,

this small girl liked controlling some dangerous things.

But then Wen Yangzhi suddenly thought of something.

Yun Yuwan sat there, engrossed in watching others play with king cobras, her head bowed, her black hair hanging down, her tender white delicate face giving an impression of harmlessness and vulnerability.

But she wasn’t afraid at all.

Calf doesn’t fear the tiger, those who appear weak might actually be the bravest.

Many individuals of outstanding talent and intelligence had expressed their interest in Wen Yangzhi, but it was the seemingly simple Yun Yuwan who was sitting on his bed at this moment.

The most innocent are in fact the most complex.

He opened the drawer where he kept his watches, his voice warm and unhurried. “Have you ever thought what if I am scared?”

Unexpectedly, Yun Yuwan immediately dropped the tablet and crawled on hands and knees to the end of the bed, her eyes shining as she looked at him. “Wen Yangzhi, are you scared of snakes?”

“What if I am?” he said, standing amid the splendid golden light of numerous glass cases, with an S-shaped crystal fringe chandelier hanging over the glass cabinets, reflecting and refracting on the glittering multifaceted glass.

Yun Yuwan looked at him in the dressing room. “If you are scared of snakes, I’ll want to keep one even more.”

He waited patiently for the young girl’s answer. “Why, do you want a snake to kill me?”

“I want to scare you with the snake, so you’ll panic and dive into my arms.”

She laughed, picking up the bunny doll beside her and holding it like a child in her arms, gently patting the bunny’s head:

“Then I’ll say to you, ‘There there, little darling, don’t be scared.’

Wen Yangzhi took out a steel watch and fastened it on his wrist bone, the face featured three time zone dials, each set to the time zones of three main branches of Wen Bank ahead of time:

“I am not your baby.”

Yun Yuwan paused, still holding the bunny.

Wen Yangzhi closed the drawer and left the dressing room, preparing to leave.

Suddenly, Yun Yuwan called out, “Then what are you?”

He stopped in his tracks, standing by the door as he twisted the doorknob, the door slightly ajar.

His lofty and aloof silhouette like a verdant mountain, he asked her cryptically, “What do you think?”

Yun Yuwan replied a bit slowly. “…Don’t know.”

Instead of answering her directly, Wen Yangzhi glanced at his watch. “No time now.”

“What do you mean ‘no time now’?” Yun Yuwan was perplexed.

He looked up at her under the diffuse light. “To show you what I am would take at least half an hour.”

Yun Yuwan was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant.

And Wen Yangzhi had already closed the door and left.

Her face burned red, and she dove headfirst into the bed.

Half an hour… that’s not enough!

When she finally recovered, she noticed a small box next to the bed. Upon opening it, there were actually four phone cases.

All four corners were raised, and the entire back was decorated with her chibi painted illustrations, all different, all in various styles, but several she had seen on the subway.

In one, she was wearing a sea salt cake dress, peeking by the window, tripping over Blue Coral, dancing at a campus ball.

They came in four colors:

Ocean blue, sun yellow, pink, and light white.

The illustrations were rich and vivid, even three-dimensional, feeling smoother than cream gel to the touch.

Yun Yuwan was amazed and felt an inexplicable sense of fulfillment; she could switch between the four styles.

Was it because she mentioned that Jiang Yingyu had given her a phone case that Wen Yangzhi had it custom-made for her?

He showed no reaction before, and there had been no response until today, but it turned out he had been preparing this all along.

Meanwhile, Wen Yangzhi himself sent a message to himself; his iPad logged into his WeChat, and a message popped up on the tablet.

Yun Yuwan noticed the iPad screen suddenly light up. She picked it up to look.

It was a message from Wen Yangzhi, detached:

——— The phone cases are Wen Bank co-branded merchandise.
