Chapter 937 The Last Hope
No matter what, I never expected that Ma Ning, the kid, would actually propose here.
Zhou Xiaotong and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Xiaotong, marry me?" Ma Ning said with red eyes but firm tone.
Zhou Xiaotong looked a little excited, but she tried hard to restrain her emotions and said, "Ma Ning, don't do this, you... you... scared me."
"Xiaotong, I know, you must be very sad because your brother left you, but I hope you can understand, Ma Ning, I don't have much ability, I am just an ordinary person, I don't want my life to be under too much pressure. Faced with such pressure, I instinctively hesitate and retreat, but after you left, I soon regretted it, because I suddenly realized that compared to pressure, my life has become so monotonous and boring, and I even feel that there is nothing to live in life. Meaning, the day before yesterday, I saw you on the street. You looked a little haggard and not so glamorous, but do you know? At that moment, in my eyes, you seemed to shine in the crowd, firmly attracting me, my heart became excited and beat violently. At that moment, I realized how important you are to me, and how much I love you... Losing you is not only a girlfriend, but more importantly, the color of my life, Xiaotong, I can't live without you..."
Speaking of this, Ma Ning cried, his voice became choked, and he didn't say anything else afterwards.
Zhou Xiaotong was already crying, and she could tell that she was very excited, but even so, she still tried hard to restrain her emotions and calm herself down.
Zhou Xiaotong wiped her tears and said, "Ma Ning, do you know what you are doing now?"
"I know, of course I know." Ma Ning said quickly.
Zhou Xiaotong shook her head and said, "Ma Ning, to be honest, I don't blame you, and I have never blamed you for this, because my parents left early, I have always taken care of my younger brother. I know the difficulties of life too much, so you are unwilling to bear this difficulty with me. I can really understand, I even feel grateful for you, glad that you did not choose to face it with me, but chose another relaxed road of life. I wish you happiness forever. As for myself, I have long given up the hope of life, I just hope to do my best. As my sister's obligation, I always take care of him. My brother and I depend on each other for life. Even if I never get married in this life, I will not regret it. So... Ma Ning, I hope you don't be impulsive. I know that when we are together, it is indeed a good time. That happiness is indeed nostalgic, but it is just a mirror and moon. If you want to be with me, what you have to face in the future is a life of food, food, oil and salt, and the pressure of money. These pressures will eventually dilute those beautiful things. By that time, it will be too late for you to regret it. So Ma Ning, I hope you can calm down, I..."
"No, Xiaotong, I'm not impulsive, I'm very calm now." Ma Ning interrupted Zhou Xiaotong and said, "In fact, I have been considering this trade-off since the day we broke up. You don't need to tell me. I also know what we will face in the future if we were together. Now, I have considered it very clearly. The result is that Xiaotong, I love you, my life cannot be without you, and because I love you, I am willing to face all the difficulties in life with you. Xiaotong, would you agree to me?"
Zhou Xiaotong did not answer Ma Ning. She was trembling all over and tears flowed down her eyes. Her brother didn't know what happened. Seeing her sister crying, he hugged Zhou Xiaotong and said, "Sister, don't cry, sister, don't cry, I'm here, I will protect you..."
Ma Ning wiped his tears and said, "Xiaotong, the reason why I chose to come here to propose to you today is because I want to say everything in front of your father."
After saying that, Ma Ning turned around, knelt in front of Zhou Xiaotong's father's grave, kowtowed three times, and then stood up and said, "Uncle Zhou, although we have never met, I think your spirit in heaven should be very clear about my true thoughts. Today, I propose to your daughter in front of you, and hope that you marry your daughter to me. I can guarantee you that Ma Ning will only love your daughter in this life. In this life, I will do my best to take care of her and your son. I hope that your spirit in heaven can help us..."
Zhou Xiaotong had already cried bitterly. Ma Ning turned around, looked at Zhou Xiaotong, and raised the ring again, "Xiaotong, now, can you believe me, have you married me?"
"Ma Ning, I'll ask you again last time. Are you sure you don't regret it? Don't rush to answer me. I remind you that I will regret it in the future, but..."
"I don't regret it. It's not that I'm going to die soon, but that life is a little harder. What are you afraid of? To me, I'm making a profit for a day with you." Ma Ning said.
Zhou Xiaotong was tearful, cried and nodded.
Ma Ning smiled heartily, put the ring on Zhou Xiaotong's ring finger, then stood up, and hugged Zhou Xiaotong and her brother in his arms...
I stood aside and looked at all this, my nose felt sore and my eyes turned red.
I think Zhou Xiaotong's father knows that he will definitely bless them...
And I think it won’t take long to drink Ma Ning and Zhou Xiaotong’s wedding banquet.
...
When I got home at night, I sat alone on the sofa and felt uneasy for a long time.
For a long time, I could not get out of such a heroic and touching marriage proposal that had been witnessed during the day.
When I remembered that scene, my eyes couldn't help but turn red.
I am proud of my brother. He is a real man. He is so simple and pure, and it is touching. For love, he can fight for his own life and face the difficulties of life bravely.
Of course, I thought of Lu Yating and me. My relationship with Lu Yating is much deeper than that of Ma Ning and Zhou Xiaotong, but they are all together now, but Lu Yating and I are far away from each other.
Perhaps, we all lack some impulse and courage, the kind of impulse to be together simply for love and regardless of consequences.
Just like Ma Ning said, it’s not that I’m going to die soon, what are you afraid of? To me, I’m just making a profit.
I was a little impulsive, and I made a decision. I wanted to tell Lu Yating about Ma Ning and the others. I don’t believe she would remain indifferent...
