He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

"Hmm? Has she turned into an auntie?"

"Go ahead and hit me! This witch has more important things to do right now, and I don't have time to think about whether ghosts exist or not!"

"Oh? What's so important?"

"Of course, it's about being a good wife and mother! Wait a minute, it seems like being a good wife is the only option..."

"I know you want to have a baby..."

The two chatted as they enjoyed the evening breeze.

Before they knew it, the little electric scooter had already passed Yunyi's house.

Sitting in the back seat, Yun Yi watched helplessly as his home receded into the distance, but Chen Shun seemed to have no intention of stopping.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Yun Yi called out anxiously.

"That's going too far! What are you thinking? Our home is over there!"

Chen Shun did not answer, but silently continued driving away.

The little witch stared in astonishment as their home disappeared from view, obscured by layers of buildings.

Although she was puzzled, she did not scold Chen Shun. She just thought that maybe Chen Shun had come to enjoy taking her for a ride and wanted to ride a little longer.

"Let me show you our haunted house."

"Evening...evening?" The little witch's voice sounded a little guilty.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you had a very important 'wife-supporting' task to do and weren't afraid anymore? Why are you chickening out now?"

"You pig! Being a good wife and mother, that's something you only get after marriage. Right now, we're just boyfriend and girlfriend." Yun Yi bluntly stated, "Although sometimes I call you 'husband,' it's just for fun, not for real..."

You could hear a faint hint of resentment in his voice.

"You're in a rush to marry me."

A declarative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yi paused for two seconds, her eyes gradually becoming vacant.

"seems like it."

……

"We're here, let's get off." Chen Shun parked the electric scooter by the roadside and got off.

Because Yun Yi was sitting backwards, she couldn't get down for a while, so she could only sit obediently until Chen Shun came over to help her, and then she landed safely.

"So, when are you going to marry me...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Shun had already stepped forward and opened the door to the building in front of her.

Yun Yi looked up and saw a three-and-a-half-story ancient brick building standing in front of him.

Clearly, this is not a modern, poorly designed retro style, but a genuine ancient building.

Although this is not the most bustling area in the city center, it is surrounded by several large commercial districts with all the necessary facilities. In this location, even a normal ground-floor shop would cost tens or hundreds of dollars.

Not to mention a three-and-a-half-story ancient brick building.

She no longer wanted to ask about the price of the building; she knew it must be astronomical.

Even if you opened a haunted house and kept it open until the two of them had lived for hundreds of years, you still wouldn't be able to recoup the costs, right?

So this is the ability of the head of an ancient cultivation family to squander their fortune?

Yun Yi's thinking was very divergent; he quickly connected Chen Shun's extravagant spending to his own situation.

Thinking back to her high school days, when she shyly admitted that she and Chen Shun were a couple in order to save Chen Shun six yuan, she felt a little wronged.

Upon seeing the little witch's complicated expression, Chen Shun knew that she was starting to overthink things again.

"What are you thinking? This is just an old house that my family doesn't use anymore."

"Damn it! A rich bastard!"

Yun Yi, the head of Bengbu, cursed out loud.

If there hadn't been passersby nearby, she would have loved to bite Chen Shun's lips a few times.

This guy didn't say anything earlier, he kept me in suspense, and I almost made a money-saving plan for the next few hundred years.

For example, in the future, when buying sausages, we'll only buy one, so the two of us can each have a bite, instead of each person getting several like we do now.

"This is our haunted house?"

"Yes."

"I think it's great. Just looking at the outside gives me a good feeling."

Fine, green moss crawls on the blue bricks, and combined with the eerie feeling, it really does resemble a haunted old building from the last century.

Yun Yi hesitated at the door, somewhat hesitant to go in. He could only hold tightly to Chen Shun's arm before he dared to take a step inside.

"What's there to be afraid of? A lot of the things in here were things we made back when we were in the club."

"The main thing is... wait! That's..."

Although Yun Yi was a little scared, her eyes scanned her surroundings without any hesitation.

It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't swept it, but once he did, Yunyi saw a peculiar item.

At the far end of the lobby on the first floor, a bright red wedding gown hangs on an antique-style clothes rack.

The xiapei was a wedding dress in ancient times.

So Chen Shun likes Chinese-style weddings?

That's right, as a traditional cultivator, of course he would like a Chinese wedding!

So he had been preparing all along. Had I misunderstood him?

I thought he wasn't in a hurry at all.

They placed the wedding gown in the most conspicuous place near the entrance, wasn't it precisely because they were afraid he wouldn't notice it?

This guy...

Yun Yi's eyes gradually narrowed, her face full of tender smiles.

Even the hand holding Chen Shun tightened its grip, pressing its softness against him.

Their gazes, however, were fixed on the wedding gown and couldn't be taken away.

If it weren't for wanting to be reserved, she could have rushed over right now to find a place to change and wear it for Chen Shun to see.

But... why is there only a wedding robe and no phoenix coronet?

There wasn't even a red veil... that's a bit strange.

Chen Shun saw the little witch's eyes fixed on the wedding robe and knew something bad was going to happen.

The little witch has misunderstood!

That wasn't prepared for her at all; it was just a prop from the haunted house.

As for the red veil?

Those are props for visitors to find; they're hidden in some corner of the building.

Chen Shun was struggling internally, unsure of what to do.

He was indeed prepared to propose to Yun Yi, but not with this.

But seeing Yun Yi's infatuated look, he couldn't bear to expose her.

But if I force myself to say that this is the wedding robe I prepared for her, and she finds out later that it was a misunderstanding, will I feel like I'm deceiving her?

Chen Shun could not accept even the slightest possibility that might create a rift in their relationship.

Lying can only be covered up with more lies, and eventually, it will all come to a head.

After a moment's hesitation, Chen Shun made his decision.

He led Yun Yi forward, and the little witch, unable to suppress her impulse, reached out and touched the wedding robe.

As he touched that texture, Yun Yi's eyes flickered slightly.

"That's just a prop..."

A fleeting look of disappointment and dejection crossed the little witch's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure, patted her chest, and declared confidently:

"Hmph, I knew it. I just touched the fabric. Although it's better than what's available on the market, it's still just average. It's not even as good as the clothes Xiaodi makes. How could such a low-quality product be prepared for me?"

But no matter how you look at it, it has a sour taste to it.

Yun Yi also made up her mind.

No, I can't wait any longer.

Even this wedding gown wasn't prepared for him, so he'll propose to her himself!

Yun Yi quietly reached into her bag, hid the small box containing the ring in her palm, and slipped it into her pocket when Chen Shun wasn't looking.

"Chen Shun, I have something I want to tell you."

"Wait a minute, I have something to show you and something to tell you."

Yun Yi shook his head and raised his eyebrows:

"No, I'll go first."

"Read what I've prepared for you first."

"I'm not watching! It's probably just another prop from a haunted house anyway, right?"

"..."

Chen Shun was speechless, and his heart ached as he looked at the little witch who was about to burst into tears.

Yes, she was just waiting for me to say those words.

Immediately, Chen Shun seemed to realize the foolishness of his actions all along, and covered his forehead with a self-deprecating laugh.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Before Yun Yi could speak, Chen Shun pulled her into his arms with a somewhat forceful gesture and lowered his head to kiss her deeply.
