The diamond ring shone brightly under the flickering light. Ye Xiaotao nodded slowly and then stretched out her right hand. “Yes.”
Gong Yi was overjoyed. He quickly put the diamond ring on her ring finger as if afraid that she would go back on her words. Then, he kissed her hand.
The lights in the hall were turned on. The bright light shone down again.
“Wow, congratulations. Young Master Gong, congratulations. Congratulations, Xiaotao,” Everyone congratulated them.
Gong Yi stretched out his long arm and grabbed Ye Xiaotao’s slender waist, pulling her into his arms. A princess crown appeared in his hand. He hooked the crown on her hair.
“Xiaotao, I remember that you like to play on the swing. I had a dream a long time ago. I want to push you when you’re on the swing. I want you to be my princess for life.”
Accompanied by a wave of exclamations, Ye Xiaotao looked to the side and saw a pink swing decorated with flowers and crystals beside the huge fountain.
The princess’s swing.
Ye Xiaotao was stunned.
At this moment, Gong Yi held her small hand and led her to the swing. She sat down. Gong Yi stood behind her and pushed the swing. Her white dress drew a sharp arc in the air.
“Xiaotao, are you happy now?”
Happy?
Ye Xiaotao looked at the guests in front of her. Their eyes were filled with amazement, envy, and blessings. The man behind her gave her so much love.
She nodded. “Yes, happy.”
The party ended and the guests slowly dispersed.
Gong Yi opened the birthday cake and used his index finger to pick up some cream and put it in his mouth. “Delicious… young lady, you have a conscience at least. This is the best birthday cake I’ve ever eaten.”
Looking at his satisfied expression, Ye Xiaotao’s eyes curved into a smile. “Eat slowly. No one will fight with you.”
“No, I want to make a birthday wish.” As he spoke, Gong Yi put his hands together and closed his eyes. “My wish is that I can eat Ye Xiaotao’s handmade birthday cake for every single birthday I will have in the future.”
“Childish.”
“Then do you think this wish of mine can be fulfilled?”
Ye Xiaotao waved the diamond ring on her right hand. “If I don’t make it for you in the future, who else will I make it for?”
Gong Yi let out a satisfied sigh. He used his index finger to pick up some cream and placed it in front of Ye Xiaotao’s mouth. “You try it too.”
“Oh.” Ye Xiaotao opened her cherry mouth and stuck out her pink tongue to lick the cream off his index finger bit by bit.
“I’m done.” She raised her head.
When she looked up, she realized that Gong Yi was staring at her. His gaze was so hot that it seemed like it was going to melt her.
Ye Xiaotao’s heart skipped a beat. As a woman who had a short marriage history, she realized how… inappropriate it was for her to eat cream just now.
She understood the emotions burning in Gong Yi’s eyes. In the past… Leng Hao was also like this.
When he wanted her.
“Haha, hurry up and eat the cake…” Ye Xiaotao turned her head uncomfortably. “I’m going to the swing.” She turned around and left.
At this time, two strong arms hugged her from behind. The man’s gradually rising body temperature pressed against her tightly. “I want to eat… something else. Young girl, can I?”
His meaning was very obvious.
He wanted to eat her.
Ye Xiaotao slowly lowered her long eyelashes, but she didn’t make a sound.
However, Gong Yi couldn’t wait any longer. He had waited for so many years and now, he finally got her. He put the diamond ring on her ring finger. Besides, he was unhappy with the failed kiss he did in the past. He wanted to avenge his past humiliation.
He held her shoulders and turned her around. Gong Yi leaned over and kissed her red lips.
