Chapter 1226 - (Title Is A Spoiler) (1/2)

Long Jinjing stared at Lu Zihao in shock. She blinked her wide eyes a few times in disbelief especially after detecting the anxiety in her boyfriend's dark eyes. Usually, she was unable to read the man's emotions because he hid them extremely well. But right now, she could see that he was anxious. Not only that. He appeared to be nervous as well.

Was he really exhibiting these emotions? Or was she just imagining things?

She wasn't sure but decided to put it aside for now. His words just now were far more important to her than reading his expression. She wanted to clarify if he really meant what he said. ”R-really, Nikolai?”

”Yes.” Lu Zihao nodded.

Her heart thumped hard. She felt restless but also excited.

”What if…I say that I want an even grander wedding than what Little Sister Xiulan and Brother-in-law Liwei had?”

”Then we'll have an even grander wedding than them,” he replied without any hesitation.

She swallowed, her eyes getting wider. ”What if…I want famous VIPs to attend our wedding? Like members of royal families or international celebrities or—”

”Then we'll send them invitations, no matter who they are.”

”What if…they ignore the invitations and don't want to attend?”

His eyes narrowed. ”Then I'll just have to kidnap them and force them to attend our wedding.”

She gasped. ”Nikolai!”

He was kidding….right? He must be!

But given his secret criminal background, even if he was joking right now, he still had the ability to do what he said. Long Jinjing suddenly began to feel scared for the safety of VIPs who fit the descriptions she gave just now. She was only kidding to test how far her boyfriend was willing to go in order to give her the wedding of her dreams.

'I should be more careful about what I say to Nikolai.'

This was what she thought. She didn't want to have a hand in a series of kidnappings around the world just because of her careless, joking words. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]

”Give me a list of all the VIPs that you want me to kidnap,” Lu Zihao said.

Long Jinjing kicked his leg but it didn't hurt him a bit. She hugged him and started laughing.

He hugged her back. ”Do you want a ceremony, Jinjing?”

Feeling shy, she hid her face on his chest but answered, ”Yes.”

”Then we'll have a ceremony if that's what you want.”

She lifted her face but avoided looking straight at him and muttered, ”We're already talking about marriage but you haven't even proposed to me properly yet.”

”I can hear you, you know,” Lu Zihao said, the corner of his mouth lifting in amusement.

She pouted. He held her chin and kissed her pouting lips. She almost melted but caught herself before her brain plunged into amoeba level. She pushed on his chest and stepped back to create some distance between them. His expression hardened.

Then she grabbed his big, scarred hand and lowered herself in front of him. Lu Zihao frowned, confused as to what she intended to do, so he watched and waited. Then his eyes widened when she dropped on the floor on one knee.

”What the hell—”
