He said this quite naturally.
But his eyes betrayed deep emotions.
He was serious.
Qiao Xi hadn't expected Shen Dang to react this way. It wasn't appropriate to discuss this matter now, so she actively changed the subject, "Who was that person just now?"
Shen Dang's gaze slightly cooled, "He is the person in charge sent from Country H."
"Oh, but he seemed unaware that Tan Garden is yours."
Shen Dang amiably accepted the comment, "I prefer to keep a low profile."
Qiao Xi neither agreed nor disagreed.
She smiled slightly, "I'm hungry; let's have the meal served."
Neither of them was in a hurry, eating leisurely, and Shen Dang even had a bottle of red wine brought to the table.
During the meal, he probed, "Xixi, if I suddenly proposed to you, would you accept?"
Qiao Xi hadn't expected him to bring this up.
Her eyes widened slightly, and under the intense gaze of Shen Dang, she said in a soft and gentle voice, "Then let's wait until you propose."
