Chapter 277
After Little Yunmo turned one month old, Chang Zhiyuan prepared to propose. Everyone was helping him keep it a secret from Shu Yi.
Ever since the couple went public with their relationship, their fans went crazy. The two occasionally shared sweet moments on social media, and Chang's parents stopped interfering, letting things run their course. After all, they still wanted their son to be happy.
From the moment they announced their relationship, Shu Yi had decided to transition her career. Fans would flood Chang Zhiyuan's social media, wishing for him to return to acting. Now that they were invested in the couple, it didn't seem appropriate for Shu Yi to act in romantic dramas with other male leads.
When Chang Zhiyuan saw these messages, he had already begun looking at scripts. Shu Yi's career transition needed a gradual process. She couldn't suddenly stop acting in the sweet romantic dramas that young girls loved. After all, she was already 26, and with waves of younger actresses coming in, she couldn't keep playing middle school or high school students anymore.
The right roles should go to the right people.
As Labor Day approached, Shu Yi had just returned from a film set. Chang Zhiyuan asked Shen Yin to help him arrange for Shu Yi to meet at a scenic spot in Rong City.
On the day of the proposal, Chang Zhiyuan wore a very formal suit. When Shu Yi received Shen Yin's call, she didn't suspect anything and rushed over.
Upon arriving at the destination, she thought Shen Yin had made a mistake. This scenic area was more of a resort, with beautiful scenery and fresh air, mountains and water, though the mountains weren't very high. Usually, it was crowded and brightly lit, but when Shu Yi arrived, she found it pitch black and seemingly deserted.
Shu Yi suddenly realized that her attire had been unnecessary. She had originally worn a mask and hat to avoid being recognized, but now in the darkness, she could barely see her hand in front of her face.
Shu Yi began to feel scared. She was in an unfamiliar place, it was so dark, and she worried about potential dangers.
Her first reaction was to take out her phone and call Shen Yin.
After a few rings, Shen Yin answered.
"Yin Yin, did I come to the wrong place? Why did you choose such a remote location, and there are no lights," Shu Yi whispered, covering her mouth.
"Where are you now?" Shen Yin asked.
"I'm at the entrance of the Panshan Resort. It's pitch black, and there's no one around. Is the scenic area closed today?"
"Yes, it's closed. Enter through the gate and keep walking straight ahead."
Shu Yi didn't hang up but turned on her phone's flashlight and continued walking as Shen Yin instructed.
Inside the resort, there were artificial mountains and fountains. When Shu Yi reached the fountain, water suddenly began to spray, accompanied by music.
Then, all the lights in the scenic area came on at once. Shu Yi was stunned by the sight before her. The ground was covered with flowers, adorned with star-shaped lights, and beside it was a rose waterfall. The entire scene was both dreamy and magical.
Chang Zhiyuan emerged, wearing a white suit and holding a bouquet of flowers.
Shu Yi seemed to have guessed what was about to happen. Chang Zhiyuan walked up to her and got down on one knee.
"Will you marry me?"
Shu Yi looked around and saw that everyone who should be there had arrived – her friends, Chang Zhiyuan's friends, and Chang Ningjing.
Shu Yi covered her mouth. A woman's intuition was indeed accurate; she had guessed that Chang Zhiyuan might propose, but she hadn't expected it to be so soon.
"When did you start planning this?" Shu Yi asked.
"At the beginning of the year," Chang Zhiyuan answered honestly.
"After we're married, will I still be free?" Shu Yi asked.
"Of course. You can still act, travel... it's just that when you travel, you'll have me with you. Wherever you want to go in the future, I'll accompany you."
"What if I want to go to Tibetan City?"
"No way," Chang Zhiyuan answered firmly. They could go anywhere else, but definitely not to Tibetan City. It was too dangerous. Although the scenery along Route 318 was beautiful, life was more important.
Their conversation made everyone around them laugh. They all knew about Shu Yi's altitude sickness incident in Tibetan City, and bringing it up in this context was indeed quite challenging for Chang Zhiyuan.
Chang Zhiyuan seemed to realize that his answer had been too abrupt, so he tried to explain himself.
"Tibetan City is too dangerous. We can go anywhere else. I'll go with you."
"You promise?"
"I promise."
They both smiled as they finished speaking. Shu Yi extended her hand, and Chang Zhiyuan slipped the ring onto her ring finger.
At that moment, everyone around them breathed a sigh of relief. The couple had been through so much to get to this point.
Fortunately, true love prevailed in the end.
"Zhiyuan, if you ever mistreat Shu Yi, I'll be the first to punch you," Chang Ningjing said as she approached.
Shu Yi lowered her head shyly. She still remembered the first time she met Chang Ningjing – she was efficient and decisive, a true career woman, and even seemed to dislike her. Now, she would send her red envelopes during holidays and even visit her on set when she was filming.
The scenic setup, which cost hundreds of thousands of yuan, wasn't dismantled the next day. When the scenic area reopened, the resort had become a popular spot for visitors. However, the tourists never knew that this was a scene set up by a wealthy young man, probably to make his beloved smile.
