Meng Haowen stood by the lake, his eyes wandering on the surface of the lake, his heart as if he was pressed by a heavy stone, and he couldn't breathe.

He looked at the green lotus standing beside him, as if he was looking at him with expectant eyes.

His heart began to churn, and the torrent of memories rushed through his mind.

Meng Haowen couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces of how he and Meng Haowu grew up.

He clung to Green Lotus's shoulders so that he wouldn't get lost in joy.

His heart was beating wildly, like a galloping wild horse, unable to be restrained or tamed.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then hugged the green lotus tightly in his arms, as if he was holding his whole world.

Meng Haowen hugged the green lotus tightly, feeling her temperature and heartbeat, as if he wanted to freeze this moment in his heart forever.

He took a deep breath and whispered to Green Lotus, "Let's go back."

The green lotus nestled in his arms and nodded slightly, a faint smile blooming on her face, like a blooming flower.

He walked out of the door, quietly closed the door, and then stroked at Meng Haowen, and the two of them came to the study together.

"General, I've already decided to marry Green Lotus."

When Luo Jinyu heard the news, he didn't have any expression on his face, just silently looked at the scenery outside the window.

Meng Haowen looked at him a little nervously, not knowing whether to continue or not.

But in the end, he plucked up the courage and continued: "I know that I have always wanted to be your right-hand man, to serve you and to do my part for my country.

However, I also understand that I can no longer run away from my feelings, and I can no longer allow my heart to be overshadowed by the shadows of the past."

Luo Jinyu didn't speak, just looked at him silently.

Meng Haowen took a deep breath and continued, "I really like Green Lotus, and she likes me too.

We have a deep understanding and trust with each other. I believe that with her, I will be very happy."

Luo Jinyu looked at the nervousness on his face, reached out to put it on his shoulder, and said, "It's good that you decide for yourself." Xiushu.com

Meng Haowen felt the temperature on Luo Jinyu's hand, and a wave of gratitude welled up in his heart.

He nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Thank you, General."

Luo Jinyu patted Meng Haowen on the shoulder, turned around and left the study.

Meng Haowen looked at his back, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he always felt that Luo Jinyu's reaction was a little strange.

But he didn't think much about it, the most important thing now is the future of him and Green Lotus.

Meng Haowen couldn't wait to walk towards the courtyard of the green lotus, wanting to tell her the good news.

He stood outside the door of Green Lotus's room, excited, as if the whole person was about to fly.

He knocked softly on the door, and soon, the door opened.

Lu He saw Meng Haowen, and his eyes showed a gentle light.

"Green Lotus, I have good news for you." Meng Haowen's voice became a little trembling.

"What's the good news?" Midori asked curiously.

Meng Haowen looked at her with a bright smile on his face, and he said, "Let's get married."

When Green Lotus heard this, it was as if he was petrified for that moment.

Her body stiffened there, her lips closed, and her breathing stagnant.

Meng Haowen looked at Lu He's reaction, and couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, he didn't know if he was too sudden and scared her.

He cautiously asked, "Green Lotus, what's wrong with you?" Am I too abrupt to surprise you?"

Midori didn't speak, just stared at him blankly, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock yet.

Meng continued, "I know I'm a little abrupt, but I want to tell you that I really like you and want to be with you.

I hope we can go through every stage of life together, whether it's joy or hardship."

"Aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?"

"Don't be afraid, no matter who you are, I'm willing to take a risk on this bet."

Green Lotus listened to Meng Haowen's true feelings, felt very moved, tears slipped quietly, warm tears fell on Meng Haowen's hands, his heart trembled, and hugged Green Lotus tightly.

"Meng Haowen......" Lu He's voice was a little choked, and she was buried in Meng Haowen's arms, like a docile kitten.

"I'm here, Green Lotus." Meng Haowen gently patted Lu He's shoulder, his heart was full of tenderness and pity.

Green Lotus raised her head and looked into Meng Haowen's eyes, she took a deep breath, and then said solemnly, "Meng Haowen, no matter what, I won't hurt you."

"Okay, I trust you."

After the two confirmed the relationship, they looked at each other and gave each other a gentle smile.

Meng Haowen looked at Lu He's eyes, as if he saw endless love and trust, and his heart was full of gratitude and happiness.

She wore a long red dress, which was one of the few to see.

Her face was full of smiles, gentle and charming, and people couldn't help but want to get closer.

Luo Jinyu stood at the door, looking at her quietly, and a warmth swelled in her heart.

"Where have you been this morning?"

"Meng Haowen came to me and went out to talk about something."

"It's okay, it's just ...... He's getting married."

Shu Zhihan's eyes widened, but they were fleeting.

Luo Jinyu looked at Shu Zhihan, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he always felt that her reaction was a little strange.

Luo Jinyu looked at Shu Zhihan with a smile on her face, and walked over to hold his arm like no one else.

He nodded, "Aren't you angry?"

"No, why be angry? It's Meng Haowen who wants to marry a wife, and it's not you, so why should I be angry."

Shu Zhihan said so naturally, as if everything was really like what she said.

Luo Jinyu looked at Shu Zhihan, although she still had some doubts in her heart, she didn't continue to ask anything, just smiled faintly and nodded.

The sunlight poured into the room through the window, and Shu Zhihan turned her head sideways, and the strand of hair fluttered gently, looking particularly soft in the sun.

Shu Zhihan raised her head and met Luo Jinyu's gaze, she bit her lower lip lightly and smiled a little shyly.

Luo Jinyu looked at her, he didn't know what Shu Zhihan meant.
