Chapter 429: Chapter 428: Will You Marry Me (4)
Yuan Shi, will you marry me?
From the moment love blossomed to gradually deepening, Yuan Shi was always filled with happiness, longing for the day when the man she deeply loved would tenderly say these words to her!
She once believed that in this lifetime, she could only hear these words in fantasies, in dreams. Yet, unexpectedly, these words suddenly echoed in her ear without warning.
She had already found the vein and was about to insert the needle. Startled by Gu Ningyi’s words, her hand trembled, and the needle missed its mark, causing the blood to flow back.
The nurse beside her saw and quickly exclaimed, "Dr. Yuan, wrong, wrong!"
Yuan Shi snapped back to reality, realizing she had inserted the needle incorrectly. She hurriedly removed the needle, grabbed some cotton, and pressed it on the wound, flustered, "Yi, I’m sorry, does it hurt?"
Gu Ningyi seemed unaffected, his dark eyes steadily fixated on Yuan Shen. His thin lips parted slightly, and he spoke each word clearly, "Yuan Shi, will you marry me?"
What is it like when a beautiful dream comes true?
Sweetness, happiness, joy, excitement—everything becomes bright, the surroundings become colorful. Is it such a feeling? At this moment, Yuan Shi felt just that. She stared at Gu Ningyi blankly, her beautiful eyes wide and round, her voice drifting, "What, what did you say? Say it again."
Is she dreaming right now? Or has she started daydreaming again? Otherwise... how could Gu Ningyi propose to her?
Gu Ningyi’s expression remained unchanged, not even a hint of emotion in his eyes. His voice was gentle, indifferent, "If you still want to marry me, let’s get engaged."

Dong Xin Yan didn’t know how long she had been asleep. When she woke up, her whole body felt limp and weak, and her head was dizzy and heavy. For a moment, she couldn’t tell where she was.
She was dazed for a long while before slowly coming back to her senses.
Her dark eyes slowly scanned the surroundings. Here... is it a hospital? And it seems like she has been here before.
She lightly furrowed her delicate brows. Right, isn’t this Yuan Shi’s hospital? How did she end up here?
Dong Xin Yan frowned, images from before her coma floated in her mind. She remembered walking absentmindedly on the street after leaving the café. Later... she was too cold, couldn’t walk anymore, and then she fell... After that... it seemed like someone caught her.
Who was it?
That person felt very familiar, and she even clung to him, saying a lot of things.
It was so clear then, but now it’s fuzzy. She couldn’t remember what she had said.
So, was it that person who brought her to the hospital?
The door to the ward was suddenly pushed open. Dong Xin Yan turned her face slightly, only to see someone who looked like a nurse walk in. Upon seeing Dong Xin Yan, the nurse couldn’t help but say, "Miss, you’re awake? Feeling better?"
Dong Xin Yan nodded, her voice somewhat hoarse, "Much better. By the way, who brought me here?"
The nurse shook her head, "I don’t know. You can ask the doctor later."

Yuan Shi pushed open the office door to see Gu Ningyi sitting quietly by the sofa, receiving an IV drip. Yuan Shi walked up to him, looked down at him for a few seconds, and softly spoke, "Dong Xin Yan is awake. Do you want to go see her?"
"No need."
Yuan Shi nodded, "Okay."
With just a few words, both of them fell silent. In the end, Yuan Shi couldn’t hold back. She bit her lip, fiercely glaring at Gu Ningyi, her eyes suddenly reddened, "Gu Ningyi, for Dong Xin Yan, are you really going this far?"
