Chapter 293: Proposal (1)
Ch.293 Proposal (1)
"Tuantuan! Old Lu!"
A white light flashed. Lin Yueqi was pulled back into reality and peeled from her dream. She looked at her surroundings, then at her daughter and Lu Ting who were standing outside, arranging flowers on the balcony. Her nose suddenly stung.
On the balcony.
Lu Ting was wearing a white T-shirt and colorful beach shorts. Tuantuan was also wearing a smaller white T-shirt and a smaller version of the same colorful beach shorts.
Tuantuan picked a flower and tiptoed on her bare feet, passing it to Lu Ting. "Papa, this one looks good, do this one!"
Lu Ting took the flower from her and stuck it into the vase, only to be greeted by a slap on the back of his hand from Tuantuan.
The chubby girl pouted and pretended to be fierce. She scolded, "Papa, what's wrong with you! How can you arrange the flower like that? Papa is so stupid!"
Saying that, she climbed onto the chair and sat on her knees before inserting the flowers into the vase one by one. As she did so, she muttered, "Papa, what are you going to do without me? Mama wouldn't like you if I'm not here. Ah, what a worrisome papa."
Lu Ting couldn't help but laugh and reached out to nudge the chubby girl's head with his finger. "Really, would you be here if Papa wasn't here?"
"Hmph." Tuantuan made a face at Lu Ting. Then, she whirled around and saw that Lin Yueqi had already woken up on the bed inside the balcony, and was staring at them in a daze.
She whispered, "Papa, Mama's awake, but why does she seem so odd?"
Lu Ting looked inside and discovered that Lin Yueqi was looking at the two of them with a distracted gaze, her eyes red. She seemed to have a nightmare and cried all through last night. Lu Ting was worried that he would wake her, that's why he told their daughter not to move so much lest she woke her.
Seeing that she was awake, the two of them walked into the bedroom front and back.
From the uneasy look on her face, Lu Ting thought that she was sick, so he pressed his palm over her forehead and only relaxed when she showed no signs of a fever.
Tuantuan climbed onto the bed and circled her arms around Lin Yueqi's neck. "Mama, you have to kiss Tuantuan today too."
Hearing these words, Lin Yueqi was a little stiff. Seeing how distracted she was, Tuantuan didn't care whether she was willing or not and went over and kissed her herself. "Mama is so good, Mama kissed Tuantuan again."
These words tickled Lin Yeuqi's emotions, and her tears couldn't help but fall.
Even though her dreams of the past life had always been vicarious, they would weaken once she was awake. But after waking up this time, the feeling made her heart ache. She hugged Tuantuan's chubby little face and kissed her forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin.
Tuantuan, "......" Wiping the drool off her face, she looked at her papa.
Those eyes seemed to say: Did Mama turn silly after sleeping?
Lu Ting also had not reacted to what was going on. Then, he was hugged by Lin Yueqi.
He buried her face between Lu Ting's shoulder and nuzzled it.
Lu Ting thought that she had a nightmare and was just about to stroke the back of her head to soothe her when she pushed him away and began hammering her fists on his chest. Red-eyed and frowning, Lin Yueqi shouted, "Lu Ting, I hate you!"
Lu Ting rubbed his chest with a dumbfounded look. He had no idea what was going on.
Then, he heard her repeat, "Lu Ting, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you! I hate you so much!"
Lu Ting continued rubbing his chest, looking wronged. "??"
Lin Yueqi pinched his ears and began twisting them like an electric fan. "You, tell me yourself, who gave me those chrysanthemums in university?"
"University? What university? What chrysanthemums?" Lu Ting struggled desperately with an innocent face. "Did you dream of something again? What you saw in your dream doesn't count. Maybe it was just a dream?"
Lin Yueqi continued twisting his ear. "Not admitting it, are you? Fine, let's break up! I'm going to find that man who sent me those chrysanthemums back then and marry him!"
"..." Only then did Lu Ting admit it. "I sent them."
Before Lin Yueqi could get angry, Lu Ting's desire for survival surged and he quickly held her, pressing her head into his arms. To prevent her from coming back with any unexpected "little hammers", he held her tightly in his arms and explained, "Chrysanthemums are tough, just like..."
"Shut up!"
He hadn't even been able to finish his words before Lin Yueqi suddenly broke out of his embrace with force and pressed two fingers into his nostrils, warning, "Lu Ting, if you compare me to chrysanthemums one more time, I—I'll throw both of us down the balcony together!"
Tuantuan hugged both his mama and his papa by the waist and said in a glutinous voice, "If you jump, you have to take me with you!"
Lu Ting cleared his throat and looked at LIn Yueqi as if begging for mercy.
Only then was Lin Yueqi satisfied. She pulled her fingers out of the man's nostrils and wiped them on his clothes with a face of disgust. "No wonder you remained single until now. Chrysanthemums...Only you would think of something like that...Heh."
"..."
