A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

Chapter 1307 Proposal

This man can be quite scary once he gets serious.

Although she was unwilling to do so, Gu Jinxiu had no choice but to lower her head, pick up her scarf, and said, "I'm leaving, please take care of yourself."

Turning around and going out, her posture was as elegant as a scene even at this time. However, as soon as she walked to the door, she saw Xia Yingluo face to face. Gu Jinxiu was slightly startled, and suddenly he felt angry. Has this woman been hiding by the door and eavesdropping? Was it possible to see how she had just made a fool of herself?

"Miss Xia, what are you trying to do secretly?" Her voice was a little cold.

Xia Yingluo smiled brightly and shook the snack in her hand happily: "Coming to bring food to my boyfriend, how can you be sneaky? I think you are the one who is really sneaky, Miss Gu, only if you have a ghost in your heart, you can see it Everything is suspicious, how can a single woman secretly come to someone else’s boyfriend to give a scarf to her without knowing how to avoid suspicion?”

Sure enough she heard it.

Shame and anger spread in Gu Jinxiu's heart.

As expected of a rich lady, Gu Jinxiu quickly controlled her emotions, smiled slightly, lowered her voice and said, "So you are here, no wonder Lingnan is like this."

After that, he gave Xia Yingluo a meaningful look and passed her by.

Xia Yingluo frowned. This woman ran away and still made people feel uncomfortable. Was she implying that Wei Lingnan's rejection just now was for her, his real girlfriend? Xia Yingluo snorted, this was some kind of clumsy alienation plan, she would not fall for it.

Walk into the office slowly.

Wei Lingnan waved her hand gently, and the door behind her closed quietly, while several clean and bright glass windows opened, letting in the clear wind from high altitude.

Her hair was blowing slightly in the wind and she asked him: "What are you doing?"

"I guess you don't like her smell," Wei Lingnan smiled, "Get some air."

Xia Yingluo was speechless. What he said seemed to be what happened, so she put the things in her hands down on his desk without making any excuses. "Seeing that you performed well, I'll reward you." She raised her delicate little chin a little arrogantly and said to Wei Lingnan.

Wei Lingnan's five senses were sharper than those of ordinary humans. At this moment, he could smell what was inside through the gorgeous packaging box: "Did you make the dessert yourself?"

"I promised you last time." Xia Yingluo motioned for him to open the box and looked at him expectantly, "Try it and see if it tastes good?"

The box was opened, and inside was a piece of cream cake as white and beautiful as a cloud. It was sprinkled with chopped nuts and icing sugar, and the aroma filled the air.

Wei Lingnan looked down at it: "I like it very much."

This is the first time she has cooked something for him. When they were on Skatana, they would eat raw meat when they were so hungry. Who would need delicious food? Looking at the small piece of beautiful cake, he couldn't help but think that maybe it would be nice to live on earth.

He took a sip, and the rich aroma and sweetness spread between his lips and teeth, flowing all the way into his heart.

Xia Yingluo was a little nervous at first, but after seeing his relaxed expression, she also relaxed and smiled: "I knew you would like it." She was very confident in her cooking skills, and especially won the favor of her father in desserts. It's true, everyone who has eaten it praises it.

"I wanted to make you a cherry cake," she complained slightly, "It's all my fault, second brother, he stole all the cherries."

Wei Lingnan looked down at her. The girl in front of him was beautiful, lively and charming, as if the whole world was shining in front of her eyes.

Out of nowhere, he said, "Then you can cook it for me every day from now on."

"Tiantian? What a wonderful idea you have," Xia Yingluo laughed at him, "Do you really think of me as your cook? Do you know how much my skills are worth in an outside shop?"

"How much, I paid." There were subtle ripples in his eyes as calm as an ice lake, "Yingluo, marry me."

There was a slight smile on her delicate and shiny face, but when she heard his proposal without any warning, her smile froze. Suspecting that she was hearing something, she raised her head and looked at him in shock. She wanted to ask something but couldn't say a word. Why are you proposing now? So fast? Not long ago she was still hesitating whether to be his girlfriend! They don't know much about each other yet, and they haven't experienced the stormy seas like their parents did. They went to the amusement park together, played hand in hand on the beach together, and whispered together in the snowy night...

This proposal came too suddenly and was too unreal.

"Marry me." Wei Lingnan said again.

He stepped forward and took two steps in her direction. The elegant yet dangerous pace of the apex predator in the universe made her instinctively retreat. This time, she finally found her voice: "Why, why?"

"I want you," he said.

Not like, not love, not any other words, but, want.

It was the desire that he had been pursuing for hundreds of millions of years, the unforgettable imprint, and he wanted to get it at all costs... everything.

I want you.

She was a little frightened and took two steps back.

"But, but, don't you think it's too soon?" She had a fever on her face and her heart was beating fast, "I-I'm not an adult yet. I won't turn 18 until next year. I-I can't marry you now. .”

"Human laws mean nothing to me."

"But you proposed!" She looked at him with wide eyes, "If you want to live on this planet with me, you must abide by human laws!"

God, what is she talking about...

She obviously didn't mean that. What she meant was...

yes……

She hasn't even decided whether to marry him or not!

"Then get engaged first." He smiled, "Yingluo, be my legitimate fiancée and tell everyone that you are mine."

She didn't know how to answer him. There was no legal age limit for getting engaged. In fact, many wealthy families had precedents of being engaged since childhood. But, that’s not the problem at all, okay? "Let me think about it..." She backed away, then backed away, her delicate little face getting redder and redder, her body touched the wooden door, and she pushed the door open to escape in a panic.

Wei Lingnan looked at her running back, his eyes darkened slightly, but he didn't make any move.

It was a bit sudden, and he knew that maybe he should give her some time to think about it.

He told himself this, but he still couldn't help but feel a faint sense of loss in his heart. The girl he had loved so much for so many years and wanted to be resurrected at all costs still didn't love him enough as in the previous life... Maybe, those former tribesmen were right. Yes, he is a humble guardian, what can he do to match the high and mighty queen?

In the office, the cakes she made were sweet and tempting, but he suddenly lost all appetite.
