Chapter 750: Proposal

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Proposing was not something that came easy to Han Sen. Killing a super creature was easier for him, because he at least had some experience with that, as opposed to marital duties and responsibilities.

”Proposal.” Han Sen searched the word on the Skynet, and the term generated billions of results.

All these different methods of doing so made him go cross-eyed. There were so many different ways, all great and romantic in their own way; but the sheer amount made it impossible for him to decide.

For a time, anyway. Soon, he found one that suited him just fine. He ordered a ring, and while he waited for it to be delivered, he got around to formulating his plan.

The next day, Han Sen visited Ji Yanran's office. ”Baby, would you like to have dinner with me tonight? It's my treat; I'll cook,” he asked, while blinking his eyes.

”Sure!” Ji Yanran answered, while she worked. She didn't know her true desire had been sold out by Annie, so she didn't suspect anything too strange.

Han Sen used to have dinner with her frequently. Having dinner in the base's cafeteria was hardly private and romantic, so they often went to their own rooms. As such, they had dinner in their rooms together a lot.

”Come sooner; I will be waiting for you,” Han Sen said, having heard her reply. He then went back to his room and put his plan in motion.

Han Sen's plan was simple. He was going to bake a few cakes and put the ring in one of them. When Ji Yanran found the ring in the cake, he could propose to her.

It was a simple but charming method. He was still in the base, after all, and he didn't want to cause a big fuss or scene.

He prepared the kitchen table in the evening, and just as he was putting in his final touches, she arrived. As usual, she waited on the couch until Han Sen finished making dinner.

”I have baked a few cakes; you should try them.” Han Sen brought forward a few cakes that had already been made. To enhance their appearance, Han Sen had shaped them with unique molds.

The cakes were shapes like animals, flowers, and hearts. He brought the cakes in front of Ji Yanran, with the ring hidden in the heart one.

On the tray he presented her, Han Sen had nudged the heart cake closest to her. He thought it would be easier for her to reach.

”This is so cute! I never thought you could make something like this,” Ji Yanran said to him with an upbeat tone, as she picked up the rabbit-shaped cake with a happy face.

”There are many things I can do and make that you are not yet aware of. You will know of these in the future, I am sure.” Han Sen didn't mind her incorrect choice. He knew she enjoyed her desserts, and because of their relatively small size, he knew Ji Yanran would end up eating a few more.

”It's pretty good.” Ji Yanran licked her fingers after eating the cake, showing that she really enjoyed it. Then, she reached her hand out and selected another cake.

”This turtle looks so cute, as well!” Ji Yanran picked her second cake, and it wasn't the heart again.

”Yes, it is,” Han Sen agreed, as the joy and anticipation in his heart fell back a notch.

”What are you standing around watching me for? Shouldn't you be in the kitchen, finishing off dinner?” Ji Yanran gave Han Sen a strange look.

”I'm waiting for you to review each of my cakes.” Han Sen softly smiled.

”They are sweet and soft; you should make a few more in the future,” Ji Yanran said, after having a bite.

”And?” Han Sen asked.

”That's it. Now go make dinner. Once we're done, I still need to go back to work,” Ji Yanran said, with a tone that suggested a bit of hurry.

Han Sen did not want to spoil the hidden ring, since he wanted it to be a surprise. Quietly, he returned to the kitchen with disappointment in his heart. To himself, he said, ”I really am inexperienced. Why would I create so many cakes for her? I should have only made two!”

It was too late for him to regret it right now, however. Standing in the kitchen, he activated his gene lock to watch Ji Yanran. If she discovered the ring, he could run over there at once and pop the question.

After eating the second cake, Ji Yanran reached for another one. As was stated previously, she really did love desserts—even if they didn't follow dinner. The cakes only took two bites to finish, too. And it was easy for people to eat a few at a time, especially her.

But this time, Ji Yanran did not pick one of her own choice. She had started reading a book, and she let her hand reach out for one.

”Heart... heart... heart... get the heart... no!” Han Sen prayed harder than he ever had, as sweat dripped from his forehead in anticipation. He tried willing her to go for the heart, but she ended up selecting the flower.
