I have a wildlife zoo-Chapter 670 - 669 Proposal

Fang Ye chuckled, "Calm down! I just wanted to discuss with you first. Otherwise, when I formally propose, I'll definitely be more serious. At the very least, I'd prepare a diamond ring and a bouquet of roses. It can't be this casual, right?"

I feel like girls still value this kind of moment; it needs to have a sense of ceremony.

Lan Li shook her head earnestly, "Wearing it for only a little while, and if I keep it on all the time, it's such a hassle when washing hands, cooking and all that, not to mention taking care of you. If I put it away and don't wear it, wouldn't that be a waste? There's no need for a diamond ring to prove anything, as long as you're good to me, that's enough."

Fang Ye took her hand and gently caressed her delicate fingers, saying tenderly, "Even if you don't need one, I have to buy you a ring. Otherwise, won't your parents think I'm being stingy with you or feel that I'm bullying you? It's not about the money."

He thought to himself that diamond rings are indeed a bit cliché, so maybe he should buy a jade ring instead?

Lan Li stretched her arms, pouting her lips, looking a bit disappointed, "Ah, I thought you were proposing for real. I got excited for nothing."

Fang Ye replied with a smile, "Easy to fix, how about I do it officially right now? Come, sit on the chair!"

Red-whiskered bulbuls sang cheerily from the branches while Huahua lay contentedly basking in the sun.

Lan Li pursed her lips, her heart going splash splash with excitement!

She had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Fang Ye picked a bunch of wildflowers from the vegetable garden next to them, knelt on one knee, and raised the flowers up.

His gaze warmly fixed on her, "I want my cat to live carefree forever, full of food and sleep, and ready to eat after waking up. Would you like to be my cat?"

Huahua opened her eyes, yawned lazily, and tilted her head to glance over.

With the sunlight on her, Lan Li's hair fluttered in the breeze.

She took the flowers, showed her white teeth, and smiled brilliantly, "I do!"

At that moment, she felt immensely happy.

Both stood up and gazed at each other with sweet affection. Fang Ye took the opportunity to lean down and gently kiss her forehead.

Looking at Lan Li's cheeks, his eyes tender as if stroking a cat, his hand gently glided down her back with care.

Lan Li hugged Fang Ye, nuzzling into his arms with unstoppable laughter.

"Husband, when do we move on to the next step?"

"What step?"

"Getting engaged!"

During the engagement, the parents of both families need to meet, sitting together to discuss the various details of the marriage, including the betrothal gifts and the auspicious date for the wedding.

Fang Ye sighed, "Ah~"

Lan Li looked up curiously, "Why the sudden sigh?"

Fang Ye explained, "As a kid, when I followed my parents to weddings, I saw how the bride and groom had to greet and see off guests, handing out cigarettes and toasting. With the emcee commenting and parents giving speeches, getting married seemed like such a troublesome and exhausting event.

I used to think that when I get married, it would just be the two of us in love together, without all those complicated procedures.

Human social etiquette is really too complicated; animals are much more straightforward.

But now that I've grown up, I realize my childhood ideas were somewhat naive. These necessary steps can't be avoided!"

Lan Li, aware of Fang Ye's personality, said considerately, "Then let's have a quiet wedding, keep it simple, or wait until you're ready to talk about it."

Fang Ye pinched her nose, laughing, "We've been together for so long, and you've agreed, so why delay it? Let's call our parents and tell them today!"

"Yeah!"

...

Fang Ye returned to his room and made a phone call to his mom.

"Hello, Mom!"

Mother Fang was currently at her office looking over some forms!

Still, as soon as she saw Fang Ye's call, she immediately picked up.

Leaning back in her lounge chair, a smile spread across her face, she said cheerfully, "What brings you to call today, what do you need from Mom?"

Fang Ye felt a little embarrassed to say directly, "Just wanted to say hi! To communicate a little, you know. How's work been going, busy?"

"Busy! If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up!"

"Hey hey, let's talk for a bit more. How's the weather over there?"

"Well, it's already autumn. We had two bouts of rain, one autumn shower and one chilly one, and the temperature dropped right away. We don't even need to turn on the air conditioning now, and it's actually a bit cold."

"It's still quite hot here! Oh, and the apples we planted in the yard have ripened recently; they taste pretty good. Do you want to come over for a visit during your time off and try them for yourself? Plus, there's something else."

"What is it?"

"Waiting for you guys to come over to set a wedding date..."

Upon hearing this, Mother Fang leaned forward abruptly!

Her eyes widened, holding the phone, she felt both excited and shocked, and it took her a long time to regain her composure!

Every time they talked on the phone, she wanted to ask how his relationship with his girlfriend was progressing, when they were getting married, but she was worried about annoying him by asking too often.

Nowadays, young people seem to have their own ideas about marriage and don't like being rushed by others.

She was waiting for him to take the initiative to report, never expecting such a surprise today.

When Fang Ye didn't hear an answer for a while, he looked at the signal and asked puzzled, "Hello?"

Mother Fang replied with a mix of laughter and scolding, "You rascal, beating around the bush about inviting us to eat apples, couldn't you just say you're getting engaged and be done with it!"

Fang Ye: "Heh heh!"

"That's fine, that's fine... I fully support it!"

After finishing the call with Fang Ye, she hurriedly shared the good news with Father Fang.

"Oh my, Old Fang, our son is getting engaged!"

Father Fang was also stunned: "What!"

After a moment of silence, he exclaimed, "Although I knew our son has been dating for almost a year, I didn't expect him to get married so soon. It all feels a bit surreal."

"It feels like the time I doted on him was too short. We rarely saw each other after he turned 18 and went to university, and in the blink of an eye, he's ready to start a family. I still treat him like a child, and now he'll be even farther away from us."

"That's what you've been looking forward to, isn't it?"

Mother Fang wiped away her tears, slightly saddened, "Yes, but I still find it hard to let go."

Father Fang consoled her, "Hey, children are meant to leave their parents when they grow up. Our son is very capable; he will live a good life. Marriage is a good thing for him, wishing him happiness is all we should do."

Mother Fang felt a bit more settled, "That's true. Eh, thinking back to when he was so cute, reading fairy tales, dragging the floor at home, waiting for me to come home only to tell me he wanted to exchange labor for honey."

Lan Li had also finished talking to her parents, who had no objections.

They had already sensed that their daughter might have been dating someone since the New Year, but at that time she wasn't willing to talk about it. Later, they showed them Fang Ye's picture, talked about the progress of the relationship, Fang Ye's character, gradually hinted at his family background, and finally mentioned it outright.

Although they were somewhat worried that Fang Ye's good background might lead to him breaking up with their daughter after a while, every time they got an update, it was always very sweet.

The parents of both families had also called each other beforehand, politely discussing the betrothal gifts and engagement arrangements. They agreed to meet up during the National Day holiday.
