Era: After foreseeing the future, I changed my fate using spatial abilities.

Chapter 228 Willing
The sudden greeting brought the surrounding laughter and chatter to an abrupt halt.

As if sensing that something important was about to happen, everyone stopped talking and turned their attention to them.

Just as she was discussing with Yanbei Fu Jiaming whether they should send a message to Elder Tong to inquire about the progress of the matter, she heard her godfather call her name and wave to her.

Grandpa and Grandma Yan standing nearby had excitement and joy in their eyes and on their faces. After a moment's thought, the two of them, being so clever, immediately understood why.

In an instant, Su Ning's face flushed uncontrollably, her eyes sparkling with a rare shyness.

He glanced sideways at the people grinning foolishly, not wanting to keep his elders waiting, so he steadied himself and quickly got up to stand in front of them.

Yan Bei also cleverly followed closely behind, quietly coming to her side.

"Ningning, your godmother and I want to arrange a marriage between you and Xiaobei with the Yan family elders. Do you have any thoughts or opinions?"

Although he had some thoughts in his mind, Yan Bei's mind went blank the moment he heard it with his own ears, and all his senses were filled with excitement.

The wedding is already arranged, how far away is it from actually bringing the bride home?

From then on, she was no longer just a boyfriend, but a fiancée.

An overwhelming sense of happiness enveloped him, making it difficult to even breathe.

"I, I'll listen to my godfather and godmother."

"Hahahaha, ok, ok!"

Upon hearing her answer, Yan Changrong burst into laughter, raised his still-hot teacup to clink with Liu Wenbo's, and downed it in one gulp, as if drinking wine.

"Congratulations! Yan Qi has finally gotten his wish. The old man should be laughing in his sleep!"

"Haha, that's right, congratulations to you too!"

Everyone was genuinely happy for both families at this moment, and they all offered their sincerest blessings to the two young people who were about to get engaged.

With everyone present as witnesses, Yan Changrong directed his grandson to hand over the prepared engagement ceremony to his newlywed future granddaughter-in-law.

She then solemnly handed the written marriage certificate to Zhang Fu with both hands.

Next came writing the birth chart and exchanging tokens of affection.

Yan Bei couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips, and the tenderness in his eyes was so overwhelming it could drown a person.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a jade pendant that was still slightly warm.

The round jade pendant is emerald green, with a string of knotted amulets tied to its end.

One side of this jade pendant is inscribed with the character "燕" (Yan) in seal script, while the other side displays the family's birth order and name. Each of the Yan family's grandchildren has one of these.

It was carved by a master carver specially commissioned by Yan Changrong from the same piece of imperial green marble, and presented as a gift on the day his grandson turned one month old.

I've been with him for a full twenty-two years.

Originally, Yan Bei wore this jade pendant with him wherever he went except when taking a bath, but it completely fell out of favor after receiving a jade plaque from Suning.

The ropes all had neck ropes, which became knots.

Amidst the laughter and stares of the crowd, Su Ning pursed her lips, her face burning hot, yet the heat lingered for a long time.

After accepting the jade pendant he offered, Su Ning thought for a moment and then took out a small and exquisite peace lock from her bosom, which was actually her Peach Blossom Spring bedroom.

This was a 100-day gift prepared by her maternal grandfather when she was just born, with the words "blessings, longevity, health, and peace" engraved on the lock.

It contains her grandfather's blessings and expectations, and also cleverly incorporates her childhood nickname, making it one of the few things she has always cherished.

After exchanging tokens of love, while the elders were happily discussing their future marriage, Yan Bei grabbed her hand and secretly led her away.

Fu Jiaming, who was thinking of going up to tease his two friends, found his legs moving automatically as he saw them leave the room.

"Jiaming, do you want to get hammered?"

"Oh, brother, I didn't mean to... I just wanted to..."

"Let them be alone for a while. If you go out with them like this, do you believe that Yan Qi will really turn against you?"

"Oh, okay, hehehe~"

Fu Jiadan released his hand and smiled helplessly: His silly younger brother has a girlfriend and they won't be getting married for long, but he still acts like he hasn't grown up.

Using his slightly cool fingertips to lift his chin, should he discuss with his mother what foods can help him grow smarter?
……

The snow continued to fall silently, swirling and dancing in the air.

Only when you step on the fluffy snowflakes do you hear a soft, crunching sound.

To the left of the Su family ancestral home, walk to the end of the path and you'll find a cliff edge.

A bare osmanthus tree, its branches and leaves fallen, stands tall beside the embankment.

Without taking her any further, Yan Bei released her and skillfully began shoveling snow from under a tree. He soon unearthed a smooth, oval-shaped rock, large enough for two people to sit comfortably on.

"I... cough, Ningning, the stone is a little wet, should I hold you?"

Yan Bei, who took the lead and sat down, opened his arms towards her with a slightly stiff expression.

He seemed nervous and embarrassed, and didn't dare to meet her gaze.

Their feet sank into the snow, and even with thick snow, they would get soaked in no time. Considering that they were already engaged and considered a married couple, there was nothing wrong with trying out how they would get along after marriage.

Therefore, Su Ning, who is usually bold and meticulous, did not hesitate. Although she was still inevitably shy, she took advantage of the secluded and deserted place and sat down in his lap. She then raised her legs and shook off the snowflakes.

A faint fragrance emanated from her body wafted to his nose, and Yan Bei hesitated to embrace her back, his hands still stiff.

His self-proclaimed composure always crumbles uncontrollably in front of the person he loves, leaving him with virtually no ability to defend himself.

So, don't overestimate yourself.

If something really happens later, embarrassing herself is a minor issue; the real problem is that it might scare her.

Therefore, Yan Bei tried hard to ignore the sweet aroma that kept wafting into his nose and opened his mouth to try to distract himself.

"Ningning, are you really willing?"

"Hehe, why are you regretting it so soon after exchanging tokens?"

"I'm just worried..."

Turning back to look at him, Su Ning's expression was serious. "It's you, and I'm willing."

Her godparents wouldn't force her without her consent.

She was timid and even lost faith in marriage, but if the person was Yanbei, she was willing to take a huge gamble.

Even if she loses, she is prepared to face failure with courage.

“Ningning…”

This position brought their faces very close, causing his breath to spray all over her face.

The tender, intimate feeling between their breaths made their hearts race.

When Yan Bei met her slightly parted red lips, he couldn't help but lean closer, his eyes revealing an almost out-of-control expression.

"Whoo~"

Using up the last shred of his reason, Yan Bei turned his head and took a deep breath.

Little did Su Ning know that, having seen his Adam's apple bobbing clearly from above, she felt as if a string in her mind snapped at that moment.

As if possessed, he leaned out without thinking and quickly and accurately pressed his finger against her.

"hiss--"

“Ningning, you…”

The deep, magnetic voice that called her name sent a shiver down Su Ning's spine.

Before he could react, she flipped over and sat up, wrapped her arms around his neck and pounced on him on the snow, haphazardly pressing her thin lips against his open lips.

"Boom~"

The icy cold of the snow behind him and the burning heat on his lips created two extreme contrasts of stimulation, causing the dark depths of Yan Bei's eyes to burst forth with uncontrollable intensity.

He pressed down on the back of her head, which she was trying to pull away from, and with a clever touch, forced her closer to him, precisely covering her head, eagerly absorbing and savoring the sweetness.

When the friction between their lips could no longer satisfy the increasingly urgent need in his heart, Yan Bei, without any instruction, gently bit her lower lip.

The moment she instinctively opened her mouth, he thrust in.

With her eyes glazed over, Su Ning felt as if her whole body was on fire, while the man continued to set things on fire.

"Boom——"

"Wow~"

A sudden, violent tremor shook the snow off the osmanthus tree overhead.

The coolness on their necks jolted the two people, who were caught in a passionate, fiery entanglement, back to reality.

After catching his breath, Yan Bei released his grip on the back of her neck, quickly tightened her collar (which she had somehow torn open), and then hugged her as he stood up.

"What was that sound just now?"

"earthquake?"

"It doesn't look like an earthquake; it looks more like something collapsed."
