After obtaining the answer he wanted, Wen Shaochuan cast a meaningful look at the guild members who were still watching the commotion, and everyone scattered away from the guild territory in a swarm.
When Su Wenqi turned around to answer the previous question, he found that behind him was already completely empty.
“Ahem, They probably had something to do and left first.” Sensing his confusion, Wen Shaochuan hurried to help explain.
“Is that so? They walked away awfully fast.”
“Alright, alright, I am going to take you somewhere, shall we go?” Wen Shaochuan interrupted his train of thought and pulled him out of the guild territory.
In the past, the other person would pull him by his sleeve, but this time it was different. Their hands were held together.
Feeling the other person’s broad and warm palm, he involuntarily tightened his grip on the other’s hand as well. Noticing his tacit consent, the other person became even bolder, slowly squeezing his fingers into the gaps between his and interlocking fingers with him.
The very second their fingers intertwined, a wave of numbness spread across Su Wenqi’s back, his throat bobbed, and he felt a little thirsty.
This unfamiliar feeling made him feel somewhat at a loss, and he wanted to pull his hand out, but the other person’s grip was too tight, making it impossible for him to pull free.
Raising his head to glance at Xianyun’s back, he noticed those reddened ears of his, and a rare trace of a mischievous thought arose in him.
He used his little finger to gently hook and brush against the other’s palm. Unsurprisingly, he saw the redness on the other person’s ears rapidly deepen, turning as red as dripping blood in the blink of an eye.
Wen Shaochuan felt his palm being hooked, feeling like a feather falling into the bottom of his heart, tickling him.
Su Wenqi felt that the other person’s reaction was overly interesting, so he hooked his palm again. Wen Shaochuan directly tightened his grip on his hand to prevent him from moving anymore, then turned his head to stare at him.
His eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes like deep pools narrowed slightly, and his profound eyes were stained with a half-smiling flavor: “What are you doing?”
“Uh, just accidentally touched it, you turn back around!” Su Wenqi did not dare to look into his eyes, forcefully turning the other’s head back with his hand, and as he let go, he conveniently pinched Wen Shaochuan’s reddened ear. He had wanted to do this for a long time, hehe.
Feeling that faint coolness on his ear, Wen Shaochuan was quite helpless. His intimidating aura had no effect whatsoever here with Su Wenqi, so he could only pinch his hand to signal him to rein it in a bit.
Su Wenqi smiled and narrowed his eyes to let him know he understood. Wen Shaochuan led him over to the carriage driver, and the two took a carriage toward their destination.
The carriage headed toward an unknown location.
At that unknown location, those departed guild members were basically all gathered here.
“Hey, right, right, you stand right there, that is right, do not move.”
“Do you think my angle is okay, can it capture the panoramic view?”
“This angle is peerless, totally picture-ready!”
“Did you all bring enough fireworks? Anyone who did not bring enough, come find me, I brought plenty here.”
Inside the carriage, Wen Shaochuan was still holding hands with him with their fingers intertwined. Su Wenqi originally wanted to pull his hand out when getting into the carriage, but as a result, after getting in, the other person took his hand again. Whenever he intended to pull his hand away, the other would look at him with the expression of a jilted lover, leaving Su Wenqi with no choice but to yield to his intentions.
The carriage traveled for about ten minutes before finally stopping.
Wen Shaochuan jumped down from the carriage first, then held his hand to help him down.
This was a desert, and this map seemed disconnected from other maps. Because today was not the fifteenth of the month, this map nonetheless featured a full moon hanging high, and the starry sky directly above was clearly visible, composing a beautiful scroll of a picture.
“The starry sky here is so beautiful.” Su Wenqi raised his head and could not help uttering an exclamation of praise.
“Mm, it is very pretty. If you like it, we can often come here to play.” Wen Shaochuan pulled him forward as they walked.
There was a stone slab path in the desert leading ahead. When Wen Shaochuan pulled Su Wenqi onto the stone slab path, fireworks suddenly rose up into the sky. Not only that, flowers of various colors suddenly popped up on both sides of the stone slab path as well, leading all the way into the distance.
Jianghu Fast Horse Express Report! The warrior “Xianyun” released the legendary fireworks [This Heart is One] at the Three-Life Tree to the warrior “Chunri Ci”, thereby declaring to the whole world that longing is endless, they are fortunate to form a pair, and he is willing to cast aside fine times and youth to laugh and chat with you while resigning rivers and mountains to you. Unafraid of ten thousand dangers, holding hands to accompany each other, their hearts and intentions can hone a bedrock, and it is a supreme fortune to meet you in this lifetime! All warriors can quickly head to the Three-Life Tree to jointly witness this earth-shaking and ghost-weeping sincere confession from Xianyun!
Su Wenqi froze. He blankly turned his head to look at Wen Shaochuan, whose expression appeared exceptionally gentle under the reflection of the fireworks.
“Let’s go.” He pulled Su Wenqi to continue walking forward. Along the way, there were fireworks and paved fresh flowers, and the system announcement kept refreshing the world channel, with players continuously rushing over from other maps to witness this grand event.
[World] [Heard Last Night’s Rain Again]: Goodness, what a big move! There are fireworks and fresh flowers all the way along this path to the Three-Life Tree, paved all the way from the map entrance to the Three-Life Tree there!
[World] [Plum Smiles]: I’m so jealous. When will such sweet love ever be my turn!
[World] [Not Suited for Work Today]: Ahahaha! Your fireworks burned my clothing rubbing! Pay for damages!!
[World] [King Jiji]: Is this what a affectionate. rich person’s confession scene looks like? I’m envious.
[World] [Feng Qian]: Everyone come over, red packets will be given out after it ends, large amounts oh~
[World] [King Jiji]: On my way!
[World] [Yunlan]: Hehe, I have already arrived. They are still handing out wedding candies and red packets. I have already collected three or four red packets, adding up to several hundred gold by now hehe~
[World] [Hulu Hulu Mao]: There is such a good thing? I am coming right now!
For a time, the world channel was bustling with noise and excitement, but these had nothing to do with Su Wenqi and Wen Shaochuan. After overcoming his initial surprise, Su Wenqi began to carefully appreciate this confession ceremony meticulously prepared by the other party.
He had originally prepared to find Su Qingqing to learn some tricks and see if she had any good suggestions, as he wanted to confess to Xianyun in these couple of days, but he hadn’t expected the other person to beat him to it.
“How long did you prepare for this?” Su Wenqi asked Wen Shaochuan with a smile in his eyes and brows.
“I prepared for three days, wanting to give you a grand and romantic confession ceremony.” Wen Shaochuan answered his question truthfully.
Su Wenqi did not expect the other person to actually have such a romantic and delicate side, which truly came as quite a pleasant surprise.
He felt that a part of his mischievous personality within his body was slowly awakening after coming to this world, so he changed his tone: “Then… is this kind of confession ceremony exclusively mine, or have you prepared it for anyone else as well?”
Wen Shaochuan’s face darkened, and he curved his middle finger to rap him right in the center of his forehead. “Of course it was arranged for only you alone, and I have only ever liked you alone.”
After getting the answer he wanted, Su Wenqi was satisfied. He tightened his grip on the other’s hand and softly said, “Me too, I have only ever liked you alone.”
“You are so good, how could nobody have ever confessed to you?” Wen Shaochuan asked with some puzzlement.
Su Wenqi chuckled slightly. “How am I that good? In the first half of my life, just staying alive was already difficult enough, so how would I have any mind to talk about romance.”
“You.” Just the other person’s superb culinary skills alone were enough to make him sought after in society, so how could it be as difficult a life as he claimed with his own mouth.
Since he had decided to be with the other person, Su Wenqi did not plan to conceal his origins either. “I will slowly tell you all about it when we have time later on.” As far as he knew, interstellar people could reach an average lifespan of 500 years, while he.
Thinking of this, Su Wenqi’s mood dipped slightly. He did not want to give up Xianyun, and he would ask Jiang about his physical condition later.
Wen Shaochuan had been paying attention to Su Wenqi the entire time, and his low mood was precisely captured by him as well. He furrowed his brow imperceptibly, and after the other person gathered his mood, he also recovered as usual.
The two followed the stone slab path to a tree. This tree was extremely tall and thick, and it was covered with red wishing tags. At a rough glance, Su Wenqi saw they were all prayers for blessings in marriage. It looked like this was a holy site for confession and dating.
When the two arrived under the tree, Wen Shaochuan let go of Su Wenqi’s hand and took a bouquet of pink and white peonies wrapped in paper out of his inventory, handing it to Su Wenqi with both hands.
“Chunri, I like you, and I think the luckiest thing for me is meeting you in this game. I want to spend every spring, summer, autumn, and winter with you, and spend every ordinary yet special day together. Can you be my boyfriend?” The eloquence he possessed at the negotiating table had a slight hesitation at this moment, and after rehearsing his lines in his heart for a long time, he still managed to stumble through saying them out loud.
Su Wenqi accepted his flowers, his thoughts returning to two days ago when Xianyun asked him what kind of flowers he liked, which turned out to be for this reason.
Lightly sniffing the fragrance of the peonies, Su Wenqi raised his head and spoke seriously into Wen Shaochuan’s eyes: “I am also very glad to be able to meet you in this world; you are the first good person I encountered in this world. I had never thought about dating anyone before, so please take good care of me for the rest of our lives, boyfriend.”
Wen Shaochuan noticed that what Su Wenqi said was not in the game, but rather in this world, and he pressed this question deep into his heart.
After receiving his reply, he stepped directly forward and pulled him into his embrace, while the guild members who had remained silent like chickens nearby broke into cheers.
“Congratulations to the guild master and Chunri on tying the knot!! When is the wedding banquet going to be held??”
“Congratulations to the guild master and Chunri on tying the knot!! Handing out red packets now~”
“Tsk tsk tsk, the moment I saw Chunri for the first time, I knew my older brother harbored malicious intentions. Look, didn’t he trick people into his hands just like this?” Feng Qian gestured and pointed fingers at his older brother.
Su Qingqing, standing amidst the crowd with sharp ears, overheard this sentence, so she pulled Sunset Slanting over to Feng Qian’s side, attempting to probe for inside stories.
Feng Qian was also happy to share, so he began telling the others who crowded over how the two of them met and came to know each other.
The fireworks at the Three-Life Tree lasted until dawn, and the players who came to join in the excitement also profited with a full harvest of wealth.
