Chapter 262 - Proposed to Yu Huang
Chapter 262: Proposed to Yu Huang
At night, Jingdu was extremely congested. Often, when the green light ended, the car would not even be able to drive past the crossroad.
Yu Feng drove calmly. She would wait for the red light when she ran into it. She was not angry when someone cut the queue. While she was waiting for the green light, Sheng Xiao took out his phone and opened his browser. He searched for a problem.
[How should I shop with my girlfriend?]
Answer: Swipe your card.
Sheng Xiao took out his wallet and checked his bank cards. He was filled with confidence when he saw that the bank cards were still there.
…
As the capital of the Divine Moon Empire, Jingdu was naturally prosperous. Jingdu had ten famous business circles, and four of them were under the name of the Garo Clan.
Among the few large cultivation families, in terms of cultivation level and strength, the Garo Clan was ranked last. However, in terms of wealth, the Garo Clan was definitely ranked first.
But Yu Huang didn’t take Sheng Xiao to a big mall under the Garo clan, but took him to a mall under the name of the Sheng clan.
Although Sheng Xiao had never shopped before, he knew his family business well. After recognizing that it was his family’s shopping mall, Sheng Xiao said to Yu Feng, “It’s too noisy here. Let me get them to clear the place.”
Before Sheng Xiao could take out his phone, Yu Feng snatched it away from him. “There’s no need to clear the place. Shopping is all about the atmosphere. It’s meaningless if everyone is cleared.”
“… Oh.”
Although he had no experience in shopping, he knew how it worked. When they reached the mall, Sheng Xiao dragged Yu Feng to buy things, clothes, accessories, bags, anything expensive.
Yu Huang was not pretentious at all. She would accept whatever Sheng Xiao bought.
“Wait for me here. I’m going to the bathroom.” Sheng Xiao asked Yu Feng to wait for him at a scenic pool. He walked toward the bathroom.
But Yu Huang felt that Sheng Xiao was not going to the bathroom.
She concealed herself and followed silently.
Yu Huang saw Sheng Xiao enter the elevator from another exit and go to the jewelry shop upstairs. The mall was oval-shaped. Yu Huang stood at the escalator and watched as Sheng Xiao walked into a jewelry shop and took something from the manager.
The manager was wearing a pair of pure white gloves. He opened the small jewelry box in front of Sheng Xiao. As a Purifying Spirit Master, Yu Feng could clearly see that it was a ring.
Yu Huang’s heart skipped a beat.
Ring?
She ran back to quietly. After sitting for a while, she saw Sheng Xiao come back.
“Okay, let’s go.”
“Yes.”
The two of them took the elevator to the underground garage and got into the car. Yu Feng was about to start the car when she heard Sheng Xiao say, “Let’s not go back to the hotel first. I’ll take you somewhere.”
“Where to?”
“You’ll know when we get there.”
“Okay.” Yu Huang started the car and stepped on the accelerator. She realized that the car hadn’t moved. Feeling puzzled, she stepped on it again and realized that the car still hadn’t moved.
Sheng Xiao reminded her, “You didn’t put the brakes on.”
Yu Huang was speechless.
Yu Feng realized that she was not in the right state to drive, so she turned to say to Sheng Xiao, “You drive. I’m a little tired.”
Sheng Xiao did not suspect anything. He got out of the front passenger seat and changed seats with Yu Feng.
Sheng Xiao drove. Yu Huang took out her phone and entered her fan club. She sent a message on her alternate account.
Big Turkey (Yu Feng’s smurf account): “I’m so nervous. My boyfriend seems to be planning to propose to me. I’m so worried that I won’t cry. Sisters, please advise me. How did you cry when you were proposed to?”
Little Phoenix—Momo: “Turkey, why can’t you cry? Don’t you love him?”
Big Turkey: “I do, but the person I love is going to propose to me. I just want to laugh out loud! I saw other people’s proposal videos, and the girls were so touched that they cried. If I can’t cry, won’t it ruin the vibe?”
Little Phoenix—Continent: “Turkey, why don’t you go to the pharmacy to buy a tear stick and wipe your eyes first? You’ll definitely cry.”
Little Phoenix – Orange Sunset: “Pinch yourself. Try your best to cry.”
These fans did not seem reliable.
When they passed by a pharmacy, Yu Feng suddenly said, “Stop the car.”
Sheng Xiao stopped the car by the side. Yu Huang ran into the pharmacy and bought a bottle of tear gas. She put the bottle in her pocket and returned to the car calmly.
Sheng Xiao asked, “What did you buy at the pharmacy?”
Yu Feng naturally could not reveal the existence of tears. She said, “Medicine for menstrual pain.”
Sheng Xiao did not ask further.
The car drove for a long time towards the suburbs before finally stopping at the top of a mountain. Outside the top of the mountain was a hundred-meter cliff and below it was an endless sea.
Sheng Xiao jumped out of the car. Seeing that Yu Huang was still sitting in the car, he went to the front passenger seat and opened the door. He opened his arms and asked Yu Huang, “Do you want me to carry you out of the car?”
Yu Feng unbuckled her seat belt and was about to get off the car herself, but Sheng Xiao still carried her out.
The bright moon was high in the sky and the sea was calm in the distance. The two of them sat by the cliff to admire the moon. Sheng Xiao had his right hand in his pocket. He fiddled with the ring box nervously. His heart was racing.
Yu Huang stared at the waves at the bottom of the cliff while her heart raced.
She thought: Why hasn’t this kid proposed yet?
Sheng Xiao cheered himself on. Finally, he felt ready. He took a deep breath and turned to Yu Huang. “Do you want to swim?”
Yu Huang was speechless.
Sheng Xiao suddenly summoned the Black Qing Sky Dragon. It floated in the air beside the cliff and lowered its head in front of Sheng Xiao. Sheng Xiao said to Yu Huang, “I want to invite you to ride it to the seabed.”
The beast form of a Beast Tamer represented the soul of a Beast Tamer. The reason why Black Qing Sky Dragon was willing to get close to Yu Huang was because Sheng Xiao was close to her.
Yu Huang was unable to resist the temptation of riding a dragon.
“Okay.” She held Black Qing Sky Dragon’s dragon horn with both hands. Sheng Xiao suddenly felt numb all over and his legs went weak.
Yu Huang was puzzled when she saw Sheng Xiao blushing, as if he had been stimulated. She asked, “Why is your face so red?”
Sheng Xiao stared at Yu Huang intently. He explained, “If you pinch the dragon horn, I… will react.”
Yu Feng stared at the two dragon horns in her palm and had the illusion that she had Sheng Xiao in her grasp.
She quickly let go of the horn and grabbed the whiskers with both hands. “Are you okay?”
Sheng Xiao stood up. He sat behind Yu Huang and said, “Turn on the protective shield. Don’t touch water.” He really thought that Yu Huang was on her period.
The bay before them was an undeveloped bay in the Divine Sea. Black Qing Sky Dragon carried both of them into the deep sea. Under the moonlight, the sea seemed dark and mysterious.
The fish swam past them in groups. Yu Huang reached out and grabbed the tail of a fish. She saw that the fish was ugly and its scales were gray. It was obvious that it was not delicious. She let go of the fish.
Sheng Xiao wanted to bring Yu Feng to see the sea, but Yu Feng said, “Catch some delicious fish. Let’s go to the shore and barbecue.”
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
“Okay.”
As the Black Qing Sky Dragon swam in the deep sea, Yu Huang managed to capture a light yellow scaleless fish. This fish tasted like the cod from the Earth.
After they reached the shore, Sheng Xiao was in charge of starting a fire. Yu Huang applied a type of plant spice to the cod.
The two of them sat by the bonfire while enjoying the sea breeze and roasting the fish.
Soon, the fish was cooked. Yu Feng took out a dagger and cut a piece of fish. She tasted it and felt that it was delicious. She said to Sheng Xiao, “Extinguish the fire.”
Sheng Xiao put the fire out.
Yu Feng cut the fattest piece off and shared it with Sheng Xiao.
Yu Huang took small bites of the fish and looked up at the starry sky. The starry sky here was different from the starry sky that could be seen on Earth. Presumably, the galaxy where the Holy Spirit Continent was located was definitely very far away from Earth.
Just as Yu Huang was reminiscing about her life on Earth, Sheng Xiao suddenly said, “I wanted to propose to you.”
Yu Huang choked on a mouthful of fish.
As expected of Sheng Xiao. He was so direct.
After swallowing the fish, Yu Huang turned to look at Sheng Xiao and asked in confusion, “Are you sure you want to propose to me while I’m eating fish with my mouth full of grease?”
Sheng Xiao felt helpless.
He said, “The view of this bay is beautiful. When I was young, I loved coming to this sea to play. I wanted to propose to you under the witness of the deep sea and the moon, but you were so intent on catching fish.”
Sheng Xiao stared at the fish with its abdomen cut off on the wooden shelf. He said bitterly, “Now, I can only propose in front of this dead fish.”
Yu Huang burst out laughing.
She said frankly, “I saw you getting the ring a long time ago. I was afraid that I wouldn’t cry when you proposed to me, so I went to the pharmacy to buy a tear stick.”
Sheng Xiao smiled. “So, you went to buy a tear stick.”
“Yes.”
The two of them looked at each other silently. They felt that it was funny after they cleared the air and couldn’t help but laugh.
