Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

Gu Qiushui murmured these words, and Yu Ci, whose face was flushed and radiant, didn't quite hear her clearly. "What did you say?"

"It's nothing," Gu Qiushui shook her head. "I just think you were very cute back then."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ci blushed even more.

-

The beginning of the Spring Festival in 2018 was warmer than in 17.

It's not temperature.

The temperature is frighteningly low.

It is said that...

It's a human being.

-

"Hey, why go out to see flowers on the first day of the new year?"

"I suddenly wanted to take you," Gu Qiushui said, turning to the side. "Don't you want to see it?"

"I do want to..." Yu Ci puffed out his cheeks, "but you went to bed so late last night and are driving so early this morning...aren't you tired?"

I heard there's a field of sunflowers there.

It's good to eat some fresh sunflower seeds this season.

"By the way, Yu Ci, how did you know I went to bed late last night?"

"You've been tossing and turning in bed the whole time, how could I not know?" With such vigorous movements, it would be strange if I didn't know.

Gu Qiushui was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and glanced at herself in the rearview mirror.

His eyes were slightly dark from staying up late.

……

Why go so far? Because there aren't such large planting bases or so many sunflowers in nearby areas.

Even though it was still winter, Gu Qiushui and Yu Ci immediately took off their down jackets as soon as they entered the greenhouse.

"Huh, such a big sunflower plantation, is there no one here?" Yu Ci was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized the reason, "We're probably the only ones who would come to see this on the first day of the Lunar New Year."

After hearing Yu Ci's words, Gu Qiushui glanced at her and then said, "It's not necessarily true that no one is here."

“…What?” Yu Ci looked around. “There’s nobody here.”

"Go deeper into the area, and you might find someone there."

Yu Ci frowned and walked deeper into the area. Was there someone there?

Hand in hand, Gu Qiushui led Yu Ci along the path from the entrance, winding its way towards the center. As they walked, her heart pounded wildly.

Even if I rehearse it a thousand times in my mind.

The final push.

It will still happen...

My heart pounded with anxiety, and I couldn't help but wonder about her reaction.

Chapter 95 Extra Chapter 3: The Proposal (Part 2)

After walking along the path for more than ten minutes, Yu Ci said that he thought he heard music.

"This music sounds familiar!" Yu Ci looked to his left and pointed. "Qiu Shui, the sound seems to be coming from over there!"

Drawn to the music, Yu Ci quickly walked toward the source of the sound.

Gu Qiushui followed closely behind her.

Up to now, everything has unfolded as Gu Qiushui had anticipated.

Except for... the next scene.

After following the sound for quite a while, I seemed to vaguely see a person's shadow among the flowers, and then—

Then I actually saw people.

"!"

Gu Qiushui's expression quickly changed.

"What are they doing?" Yu Ci was startled when he suddenly saw two men. Upon closer inspection, he saw the two men fiddling with a stereo system. Yu Ci was even more confused. Wasn't this the planting base?

There are sunflowers everywhere, why put a sound system in the middle of the garden?

Could it be... that you're playing music for the flowers?

After a jumble of random thoughts crossed his mind, Yu noticed that the expressions on the faces of the two men fiddling with the stereo suddenly changed.

Following their strange gazes, Yu Ci turned around and saw Gu Qiushui.

"..."

"Qiu Shui, you...know each other?"

Just as Yu Ci finished speaking, Gu Qiushui was about to speak when she noticed a sound coming from the sky, and several drones quickly flew over.

Before the group could react, a large number of flower petals fell from the drone.

Bright red rose petals spiraled down from the sky, fluttering and dancing, a breathtaking sight.

then……

The two men in black were covered in red rose petals.

-

In Gu Qiushui's eyes, the first day of 2018 should have been like this.

I got up early, put on makeup with a full spirit, then dressed in beautiful clothes, and brought Yu Ci to this sunflower planting base, which is about two hours away from Shanghai.

There are pre-carved paths here. She and Yu Ci will follow the paths all the way to the middle of the sunflower field. Then, someone she arranged beforehand will turn on the speaker placed in the center and play the song "Let's Get Married," which is familiar to people all over the country.

Then, following the singing, Yu Ci would move to the center position at her prompting.

Just then, a pre-prepared drone will fly over carrying flower petals. After the bright red rose petals, symbolizing love, fall, she will take out the ring she has prepared and begin the most solemn confession of her life.

but--

Yesterday, Gu Qiushui was preparing to propose. The mental rehearsals were so complex that she went through them countless times. She felt she had succeeded in every step, but—

However, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.

Instead of looking radiant, she appeared somewhat haggard. Of course, these were minor issues.

The bigger problem was yet to come. Following the sound, they found not only the speaker, but also two people with tools... inside the speaker.

This isn't too bad.

To make matters worse, the rose petals that had been prepared fell on the two men in front of her and Yu Ci.

-

“This…” Yu Ci pointed at the person on the ground, then looked at Gu Qiushui. Just as he was about to speak, the speaker, which had just stopped working, suddenly started playing again.

A familiar melody began to play.

A pure white wedding dress, holding a bouquet of flowers.

Beautiful like a fairy tale

I remember that early summer

……

I want to give you a happy home.

If you still haven't figured out what happened, then Yu Ci has wasted all these years.

Music, petals, scenery, romance.

She suddenly turned to Gu Qiushui, who was standing to the side, and asked, "You came here today because—"

Things have come to this point.

The marriage proposal plan was completely disrupted.

But it's okay.

If plans can't keep up with changes, then don't make plans.

We've already been holding back for so long, and if all our plans are ruined, then let's not make any more plans.

The petals are still there, the song is still there, and the people are still here.

Gu Qiushui took out the diamond ring from her prepared pocket and knelt down on one knee.

"I……"

"I'm a little lost."

"You're at a loss?" Yu Ci was stunned. "I... I'm even more at a loss than you."

Both of them were dumbfounded. Gu Qiushui looked at Yu Ci, who was truly dumbfounded, and took a breath. "Actually... I had prepared what to say yesterday, but even if I was prepared, I was still a little nervous."

"I've been preparing these words for a long time."

"At the end of the year, at the Hundred Flowers Awards, Chen Simu confessed his love to me. I thought to myself, flowers, applause, a marriage proposal, and a lover—this is the best kind of love I've ever imagined."

"Later, due to time and events, I lost that feeling."

but.

Yu Ci is still young.

"Thinking of him reminds me of myself."

"Confessing my feelings back then was rather rash, but you... still ended up with me. We've been together for a long time, and I've always been thinking about when to propose. Now I feel like it's time."

"More than once."

"will you marry me?"
