Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 262

Chapter 262: Chapter 262 Confirming the Relationship

Watching Yunyi’s solemn expression, Huo Jingrui felt inexplicably nervous. "Go ahead and ask."

Yunyi considered for a moment. "Do you have a girlfriend, or are you engaged?"

Huo Jingrui’s tense heart relaxed upon hearing this, and he suddenly laughed. "No."

Since they rarely had the chance to meet, Yunyi didn’t want to wait any longer. She wanted to secure him for herself as soon as possible. "Do you think..."

Before she could finish, Huo Jingrui stood up.

He also took a step forward and gave Yunyi a military salute. "Chu Yunyi, my name is Huo Jingrui. I am twenty-five years old, unmarried, and have never been in a relationship. My family has not arranged a fiancée for me. I have served in the military for seven and a half years and am currently a battalion commander. My salary is seventy-eight yuan, excluding mission bonuses, and I have no bad habits."

After a short pause, he added, "I would like to date you with the intention of marriage."

He felt this was somewhat abrupt and hurriedly explained, "Since we parted, I’ve been thinking of you constantly. I think I’ve fallen for you. Is that okay?"

He had hurried to speak because of his intuition; he felt Yunyi might like him too. If his feelings were reciprocated, he believed it was better for the man to speak up first in such matters.

Secondly, even if she didn’t, he wanted to take this chance; he didn’t want to give up without trying.

After speaking, he kept his eyes fixed on Yunyi, awaiting her reply.

Yunyi deliberately didn’t respond immediately. Instead, she kept staring at him until he grew uneasy. Then, she smiled and extended her hand. "I agree."

Huo Jingrui was visibly excited. "I, I just knew you felt the same!"

He raised his hands, wanting to embrace her, but then hesitated, afraid she might get angry. His expression made Yunyi laugh outright.

Since he was her destined one, there was no need for formality. She reached out, embraced him, and leaned against his chest, taking a deep breath. This was the embrace she had missed for so long.

It was truly comforting, and her eyes moistened involuntarily.

At first, Huo Jingrui was somewhat taken aback. But gradually, he lowered his hesitant hands and held her tightly. "Ever since we separated, I don’t know what’s happened, but I dream every single time I sleep."
