Ch25 - Mufeng’s Proposal

Edited by Elanor and Hanamichi

After half a month.

Sitting at the dining table, Jiang Xu was eating almond cake and sweet-scented osmanthus cake made for him by Liu Mufeng with a face full of intoxication. “Wow, it’s delicious. Mufeng, can you make a little more for me? I’ll take it to eat on the road!”

Liu Mufeng, who was sitting beside him, could not help frowning. “Are you going?”

“En, your injury is fully healed, and I don’t need to take care of you anymore. Then I should go too!” Jiang Xu felt a little embarrassed as he said this. In fact, only the first three days of Mufeng’s injury did he help him to get dressed. Later, when Mufeng’s injury had healed, he was always making food for himself and taking care of himself.

Looking at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng’s face was a little gloomy. “This is the third time you’ve said you’re leaving!”

“En, I’ve been living in your house for two and a half months, and it’s time for me to leave!” Jiang Xu felt even more embarrassed.

“But, I, I don’t want you to leave!” Liu Mufeng grabbed Jiang Xu’s arm with a little intensity.

“Mufeng?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, who had a very gloomy face, Jiang Xu called out in confusion.

“Jiang Xu, I am very happy every day I am with you. I feel happy when I see you laughing. I think you are so adorable when I see you pouting and angry. And when I saw you helping me out to get back the spirit stones that Zhang Cui borrowed, I felt very warm in my heart. Seeing you worrying about me makes me feel very sweet. Really, every day with you is very beautiful. So, please, why don’t you stay?” Looking at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng said word by word.

“I.. I’m going to Ping’an Town to get the bounty rewards.” Looking at the man beside him, Jiang Xu said dully.

“I can go with you, okay?” Liu Mufeng asked softly, looking at the other in a daze.

“This, this…” Jiang Xu hesitated.

Slowly standing up from the chair, Liu Mufeng tapped on one knee and knelt down in front of Jiang Xu.

“Mufeng, what are you doing? Get up!” Jiang Xu hurriedly stood up from his chair with a startled cry.

“In my hometown, if you meet someone you like and love very much and want to marry them back home as a wife, then you have to prepare the most beautiful diamond ring, then kneel in front of him to propose to him. Ask the other party to marry him!” Looking affectionately at Jiang Xu, who was close at hand, Liu Mufeng was very sure that this person was the person he liked, and this person was the partner he wanted to marry.

“You, what are you talking about?” Jiang Xu’s head was a little confused as he stared blankly at the young man kneeling in front of him.

“I am saying, please marry me and be my partner. Be my wife. I promise that after marrying you, I will not take a concubine, and whether it is a woman or another dual, I will not take a second look. I will only love you and spoil you alone.” Looking at his beloved, Liu Mufeng said word by word.

Hearing these words, Jiang Xu couldn’t help his eyes to redden. “Mufeng, I.. I already have someone I like. I’m sorry, I should have told you earlier. I’m sorry!”

Seeing Liu Mufeng kneeling on the ground, asking for marriage, Jiang Xu frowned deeply. He was very regretful in his heart. He should have told Mufeng earlier. That way, Mufeng would not have taken a liking to him, and he would not be so sad.

“Will the person you like marry you as his wife? Will he only love you alone? Will he?” Staring at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng asked reluctantly.

Hearing this, Jiang Xu was stunned. Then he shook his head desolately. “I don’t know, probably not!” ‘Brother Zhantian’s fiancee is Sister Meng. How could he marry him as his wife? I am afraid that if I marry him, at most, I can only be a concubine.’

“Since he doesn’t love you and won’t treat you wholeheartedly, why do you still like him?”

“Me.. I grew up with Brother Zhantian, and I have liked him ever since I was young. I have always secretly liked him for a long time. I have not told him about what I feel, and I don’t know if he likes me or not.” Jiang Xu’s brows furrowed even deeper.

“Then, let’s go to him and tell him that you like him. If he is willing to marry you as his wife, then I will stop pestering you. If he does not want to marry you, then I will ask to marry you again. Are you okay with it?” Looking at Jiang Xu, there was a hint of pleading in Liu Mufeng’s words.

Looking at Liu Mufeng with an affectionate face, Jiang Xu shook his head. “No, it can’t be like that. It’s not fair to you, it’s not fair to you.”

“It doesn’t matter. I appeared late. If I also appeared in your childhood, then the person you might have liked might have been me.” Liu Mufeng didn’t believe it. If he had met Jiang Xu with the stallion male protagonist. Jiang Xu would rather choose a stallion man than him. In the end, Xiao Zhantian just took the lead, plus the traction of the original book, to make Jiang Xu like him.
