Tiantian texted Yang Ruoxi his room number when he checked in at the hotel.

The hotel room felt lonely, but he felt happy that he was at least closer to Yang Ruoxi now.

When he had arrived, everything had been pitch -black. The streetlights weren’t bright enough to illuminate the path, much less show him the surroundings. The night had been cold, so Tiantian had only focused on reaching as soon as he could and didn’t pay attention to the place.

When Yang Ruoxi left her house, dawn was breaking. There was a wholesale market in Changrong Town. However, the market was open only in the morning. Yang Yiren didn’t doubt his daughter when she said she was going to meet Lin Wan to buy some seafood.

Yang Yiren also had to head to the graveyard for a while.

“Dad, I’ll be back in the afternoon to pick grandma up for lunch.” Yang Ruoxi was afraid that her father might be worried about her grandmother.

“Alright. You two have fun, okay? I’m old now. It’s not always good for me to visit other people’s houses frequently. I don’t know how your father and Han Jie are with each other. I don’t want to burden her. ‘ Her grandmother waved her hand.

“No, Grandma! Mama Bao was blaming me for not bringing you along yesterday. Are you really not coming with me?”

“No. I’m going to stay home today. You young people have fun.”

“Xixi, just let grandma stay. Her teeth aren’t what they used to be. I know you young people like chewy food. You don’t need to alter your food preference because of grandma,” said Yang Yiren.

‘That’s alright. I don’t mind,” said Yang Ruoxi.

“What about Lin Wan and the others? It’s alright. Your grandmother still cooks a feast even when I tell her to rest. She’ll be fine.”

“Alright,” said Yang Ruoxi. “Grandma, you call me if you need anything at all, okay? I’ll rush home.” Yang Ruoxi hugged her grandmother.

“Go now. Get lost. Drive carefully,” said her grandmother.

Yang Ruoxi drove straight to the hotel. It was half past five, and the sky was still dark.

In the hotel, Tiantian brushed his teeth and waited for Yang Ruoxi.

He pulled open the curtains and saw that it was still dark outside. The winter here was exactly like where he lived. The day started too late.

He had wanted to call Yang Ruoxi, but he didn’t want to wake her up so early.

After all, she must have gone to sleep very late at night yesterday.

Tiantian closed the curtains again and turned on the TV.

In the hotel’s parking lot, Yang Ruoxi found a spot closest to the elevator to park her car. She looked at the rearview mirror to make sure her makeup was okay. She then took the elevator to the upper floor.

Tiantian heard a knock on the door. He knew it was her. He rushed to open the door.

“Xixi!” Tiantian pulled her to him and closed the door behind her. Yang Ruoxi wrapped her arms around him.

“Xixi…” He kept calling out her name.

The sun slowly rose and filtered through the curtains.

Two hours later, Tiantian put on his clothes. “Xixi, take me home with you. I don’t want to stay in this lonely hotel room after this.”

Yang Ruoxi was so tired that she couldn’t even lift her eyelids. “My father went down the mountain. Only my grandmother is at home. Do you want to sneak in tonight?”

Tiantian chuckled. “I can climb through your window, but why does this all feel so illegal? It’s like we are having an affair.”

Tiantian knew how conservative people were in villages. If word got out that he sneaked into her room, it would be a big deal.

Tiantian sighed. “Forget it. I’m not sneaking in. If someone sees me there, they’ll badmouth you. Xixi… do you… should I ask my family to visit your family and ask for your hand in marriage? We’ll graduate next year. We can get married if you want.”

Yang Ruoxi was taken aback. She and Tiantian hadn’t even been together for a year. Wasn’t it too soon to get married? “You don’t want to?” asked Tiantian. “It’s alright.”

“No… I do. But isn’t it too soon?”

“We’ve been together for eight months now. Almost a year if you take the Spring Festival into consideration.”

“I… I need to ask my father first. I just told him yesterday about you. He wanted to meet you. I’m going to tell him you’re here. Do you want to meet him?” “Of course,” said Tiantian.

“Don’t tell him you arrived last night. I’ll just tell him you reached here today. I lied to him and said I was going to the market and came here. My father still sees me as a little kid. He might think less of me if I tell him I came to meet you at the hotel,” said Yang Ruoxi.

“Of course. I will do whatever you say,” said Tiantian. “I brought gifts for them.

Oh… I got something for you, too.”

Yang Ruoxi saw gift bags in the closet. “You didn’t need to!”

Tiantian took out a small red box and opened it. It had a gold necklace inside. “My grandmother sent this for you. She said it’s our family heirloom. My great-grandmother passed it onto her. And now… to you.”

Yang Ruoxi was stunned. It was an old design. The necklace was really heavy. Because it was entirely made of gold. “Thank you… but I can’t accept something so expensive and precious.”

Tiantian pretended to be annoyed. “Really? Come on! Don’t tell me you don’t like me anymore! You really don’t want to get married to me?”

“It’s not that! Do you think I’m playing around? I just… I can’t accept such a chain. It’s a family heirloom. It’s too expensive and precious. I can’t accept it. I

feel bad.”

Small gifts were fine, but such an expensive and precious gift was difficult for her to accept.

“I still have something to give you,” said Tiantian as he took out an alloy bracelet that he had chosen for her..
