Chapter 223: 223 Establish this marriage certificate, with this as proof, announce to the Six Realms
223 Establish this marriage certificate, with this as proof, announce to the Six Realms.
The three first took the elevator, then walked toward the exit.
Along the way, Tushan Jiu saw nothing unusual, thinking she had overthought it.
But when they reached the lobby on the first floor, Xie Shiyu appeared.
He held a large bouquet of Juliet roses, walking step by step toward Tushan Jiu.
Many people around looked over.
At that moment, the broadcast played a confession song.
Tushan Jiu recognized it—it was Bai Yu's voice.
Xie Shiyu stopped half a meter away from Tushan Jiu; his voice lacked its usual composure and gained a hint of nervousness.
"Jiujiu, I originally wanted to prepare a grand proposal ceremony for you. These past few days I've been scouting various suitable proposal spots, rehearsing different plans, but in the end I chose here, because the day you came to Nan Cheng, I wasn't able to personally pick you up— that's my regret. From now on, whenever you go out, even if I don't accompany you, I will definitely come to pick you up home."
"That day when you were drunk, you said that after you leave seclusion, our engagement would be annulled, and my heart felt like it would stop from fright. Actually, I'm not as good as you think. Back then I had a nasty thought: if you really wanted to leave me, I would surely try every means to keep you by my side."
"But later, when you said, 'Let's just sign a new agreement,' I realized I had already fallen into your hands, willingly, and all my emotions are easily swayed by you."
"So, Jiujiu, I want to spend a lifetime with you, growing old together. Will you marry me?"
Xie Shiyu knelt on one knee, producing the engagement ring he had prepared long ago—a simple pair of rings, yet one could see the slightly unskilled craftsmanship on them.
He made them himself.
Without any flowery language, Xie Shiyu spoke as if chatting with her, voicing his truest thoughts, full of sincerity and promise— it's impossible not to be moved.
Although she had long been prepared, her heart still raced nonstop.
The passersby around also pulled out their phones, filming this special proposal scene.
Proposals are common in malls, cinemas, and amusement parks, but seeing one at an airport is truly a first for them.
Moreover, it wasn't long before someone recognized Xie Shiyu, as well as Bai Yu singing at the broadcast station.
The airport was not lacking in business elites; they also discovered that many bigwigs from Nan Cheng were hidden in the crowd.
Needless to say, the whole Xie Family was there, as well as the Lu, Xiao, Zhang, and Wang families, and many more.
Basically, most of the upper‑class circle had come.
This excited many people; today they counted as witnesses to a proposal by the richest person.
Of course, the vast majority of people didn't know who they were, just treating it as a normal proposal ceremony.
Moreover, the leads were so handsome and beautiful, they were practically a perfect match.
So many people started cheering, shouting loudly: "Accept him! Marry him!"
Tushan Jiu didn't take the ring; instead, she lowered her head, reached into the small bag she had specially brought today, and pulled out a roll of red silk.
She lowered her gaze to look at Xie Shiyu and said, "Xie Shiyu, not only are your emotions moved by me—I feel the same. To be honest, when I first came to Nan Cheng, I only hoped we could treat each other with respect, but now I truly, truly like you."
"So today, let everyone here—acquaintances and strangers alike—act as witnesses together."
Tushan Jiu opened that red scroll and said, "Yin and yang in harmony, all things transformed, a perfect couple united in virtue, fate sealed this lifetime—Tushan Family's Tushan Jiu and Xie Family's Xie Shiyu hereby establish this marriage certificate; with this as proof, we announce it to the Six Realms."
With each character she read, Xie Shiyu's heartbeat quickened a notch.
After she finished, Tushan Jiu extended her right hand to him, saying, "Xie Shiyu, I accept your proposal."
Xie Shiyu stood up, handed the bouquet to Xie Jingzhou beside him, and couldn't help but lift the corners of his mouth again and again.
He took the women's ring from the box and put it on her.
The hand that usually signs billion‑dollar contracts steady as a rock now trembled slightly.
Tushan Jiu pressed her lips and smirked—only liking someone makes one this nervous; her heart was pounding wildly right now.
After the ring was on, Xie Shiyu solemnly took the new marriage certificate; Tushan Jiu handed him a pen, and he signed his name.
As Tushan Jiu also signed her name before the crowd, the surroundings instantly burst into enthusiastic applause and cheering whistles; everyone lavished their blessings upon them.
Meanwhile, those bigwigs who had been hiding in the crowd each produced a large stack of red envelopes from somewhere.
Anyone who offered congratulations received a red envelope.
Just moments ago, Tushan Jiu hadn't felt shy, but now she realized and whispered, "How did they all come?"
Even Wang Xin and his group came.
Just mentioning this made Xie Shiyu feel helpless.
Ever since Tushan Jiu set off for Yi City, he had been busy preparing the proposal.
I don't know who blabbed it, but word spread—one told ten, ten told a hundred—and in less than a day everyone knew, all saying they'd come to help.
However, Xie Shiyu didn't refuse; it was perfect to propose in front of everyone, so they'd know it wasn't because of the engagement but because he, Xie Shiyu, truly, deeply loves Tushan Jiu.
The airport proposal made it onto the hot search list.
After all, the Xie Family are the richest, plus Bai Yu performed at the airport—of course it would trend.
After the proposal, Xie Shiyu took Tushan Jiu out on a date.
As for the airport side, naturally someone was in charge of cleanup.
Xie Shiyu brought Tushan Jiu to eat first.
In the car, Tushan Jiu stared at the ring on her hand, smiling, feeling wonderful inside.
Xie Shiyu asked her, "Did you already guess?"
Tushan Jiu honestly replied, "Yeah, I guessed a little, so I prepared the marriage certificate in advance."
She called out, "Xie Shiyu."
Just as they hit a red light, he turned his head toward her, "Huh?"
Tushan Jiu leaned forward and kissed his lips, saying, "I'm really, really happy today— thank you."
Xie Shiyu grabbed her hand in his palm, stroked the finger wearing her engagement ring, then lifted it and kissed it, saying, "Mm, I'm happy too."
——————————
(I don't know why I can't post my comment, so I'll add a sentence. This isn't the ending, huh, because Xiao Jiu said that after leaving seclusion she'd re-sign the marriage contract, so Xiao Xie has kept it in mind, so hurry up and arrange the proposal. My wife ran off—what to do, hehe, see you tomorrow!)
