The female coach who jumped with Xu Lian was really experienced. By the time they smoothly landed on the ground, Xiang ChangKong also landed not too far from them.

After detaching Xu Lian, the instructor applauded the couple in congratulations.

Xiang ChangKong walked towards Xu Lian with a smile. "How are you feeling?"

After some thought, Xu Lian replied: "It was exhilarating. Your little stunt was a bit silly, though."

Xiang ChangKong chuckled. "It doesn't matter if it looked silly. As long as my intentions reached your heart, then it was worth it." Given the fact that Xu Lian made a heart sign when they were in the air, Xiang ChangKong felt that his proposal had successfully touched Xu Lian.

Xu Lian: "...."

These past few years, together with his three-year stay abroad, made Xiang ChangKong's personality a lot more cheerful. He had finally put down the heavy burden that had weighed his heart ever since his father's passing.

Zhang GuoEr used to talk about the 'heavy melancholy' in Xiang ChangKong's eyes, but now, there was no heaviness in his gaze. Instead, all Xu Lian could see was the endless, bright sky.

To be honest, while it was the old Xiang ChangKong that first attracted Xu Lian to him, she very much preferred to see Xiang ChangKong act like this.

"You've been looking at my face for a while. What are you thinking about?" Xiang ChangKong smiled.

Xu Lian smiled back and said: "Look how thick-skinned your face has become."

Before Xiang ChangKong could answer, the other staff members approached with champagne to celebrate their successful landing.

Xu Lian accepted the flute of champagne and clinked it against Xiang ChangKong's glass. But Xiang ChangKong hooked his arm around hers and said: "It's better to drink it like this."

(T/N: That thing some people to at weddings where the bride and groom hook arms and drink wine.)

"..." Surrounded by cheering people, Xu Lian looked upward and drank her champagne.

After the celebration, all that was left was to wait for their video and photos. This process would take around an hour or two, so the skydiving club had a special rest area where the guests could wait.

In the rest area, Xiang ChangKong rummaged through his bag for a while, then reached for Xu Lian's hand.

Xu Lian looked at him suspiciously. "What are you doing?"

"Giving you something." Xiang ChangKong replied.

Xu Lian raised a brow. "And you need to hold my hand to do it?"

Xiang ChangKong laughed. "No, but I want to."

Xu Lian no longer questioned him and offered her right hand.

"The other hand."

"... you're quite picky."

Xu Lian extended her left hand and then watched as Xiang ChangKong put a ring on her ring finger.

The design of the ring was simple. The diamond inlaid wasn't huge, but nevertheless, it made Xu Lian's heart tremble.

"Good, it fits." Holding Xiang ChangKong's hand, he raised his head and said: "I can only afford something like this for the time being."

Xu Lian's trembling fingers grasped Xiang ChangKong's hand and said: "I think it's wonderful. Big diamonds look too tacky to me."

Gradually, Xiang ChangKong's grip tightened, and he bowed his head to kiss her hand. "Let's get the license when we get back. What do you think of holding the wedding in early October?"
