I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 222: Chapter 221: Will You Marry Me?

”Living with you in the military?” Beisitian asked with a hint of confusion.

Luo Xudong’s question was so sudden and unexpected that Beisitian didn’t react immediately.

”Yes.” Luo Xudong looked at her.

Beisitian saw the sparkle in those deep eyes and immediately understood what he meant, her pretty face reddening a little.

Luo Xudong saw her slightly lowered head and said nothing, his expression softened, ”I’ll be there for everything from now on.”

You’ll no longer have to stand in front of everything!

Luo Xudong wasn’t someone who could sweet talk or coax girls easily. Seeing Beisitian not saying anything, he felt a bit heavy-hearted, perhaps he was being too hasty.

Beisitian glanced at him sideways, thinking that just using a single sentence wasn’t enough to express himself. Seeing him awkwardly trying to convey his feelings made her feel amused yet sweet — a sensation she had never experienced before.

”Why do you want me to live in the military with you?” Beisitian had to ask back.

For someone as cautious and astute as Luo Xudong, he seemed reckless here. Who proposes marriage in such a subtle way!

Luo Xudong was taken aback by her question. Seeing the shy yet annoyed look in her eyes, his heart soared — she wasn’t rejecting him, so why did she ask?

Luo Xudong didn’t have much experience and had never tried to guess a woman’s thoughts before. Fortunately, he was shrewd enough to quickly understand Beisitian’s meaning upon reflection.

”Will you marry me?” Luo Xudong’s handsome face flushed slightly, his expression earnest, looking straight at Beisitian as he spoke.

Beisitian chuckled softly, her face flushed, and looked up to meet Luo Xudong’s gaze, filled with expectation and longing, seemingly glued together.

”No.” Beisitian suddenly wanted to tease him.

Upon hearing this, a flash of panic and disappointment crossed Luo Xudong’s face, ”Why?”

Seeing his expression earlier, Beisitian could no longer bear to joke around, quickly saying, ”I’m teasing you.”

Luo Xudong looked a bit exasperated, could she not tease him about such matters — it was quite heartwrenching!

”Did you say yes?” Even though Luo Xudong knew the answer, he still hoped she could say it aloud.

Beisitian nodded bashfully, bowing her head with a smile.

Luo Xudong’s sharply defined features softened, a smile lifting his mouth as he looked fixedly at Beisitian, ”You’re finally my wife.”

Even back when he was Zhou Jiren, he longed for her to be his wife. At that time, he wasn’t even sure if he could return alive; it was a wish hard to seek.

Now, he has finally fulfilled his wish!

Looking at Beisitian’s beautiful face, thinking of her always being by his side in the future, Luo Xudong never felt so happy and fortunate.

”This is for you.” Luo Xudong took out a piece of velvet, unwrapped it, and inside lay a jade bracelet.

The jade bracelet was emerald green and looked extremely exquisite, its luster surprisingly decent!

”Isn’t this expensive?” Beisitian asked.

Being familiar with jade jewelry, she understood its value; this piece seemed quite costly.

”I didn’t buy it.” Luo Xudong succinctly told Beisitian.

It turned out he specifically sought this out when he was Zhou Jiren. Back then, in a different identity, he didn’t have to worry about spending money. Moreover, wanting to gift Beisitian with good jade jewelry, he found this bracelet after meticulous searching and kept it for her.

Beisitian toyed with it for a moment, then put it on her wrist, smiling up at Luo Xudong, ”Thank you, I really like it.”

The girl’s smile across him bloomed brightly like a flower, so dazzling and beautiful that Luo Xudong stared, entranced.

The next day, Luo Xudong shared the news with Luo Anguo and his wife, surprising and delighting them. Earlier, they were worried about Zhang Lianqiao’s matter affecting Beisitian, not expecting the two to come together so quickly!

”Good boy!” Luo Anguo laughed heartily.

This finally tied Little Tian’er to them, and once again, they became a family!

Mrs. Qin was also overjoyed, continuously thanking the heavens. The thought of Beisitian leaving always brought her to tears, so keeping her was naturally the best outcome!

”When shall we hold the ceremony?” Mrs. Qin was eager to proceed immediately, to secure Beisitian as part of their family, leaving no room for others to stir trouble.

She had seen enough of Zhang Lianqiao’s antics!

With just a month left before Luo Xudong returned to the military, it was best to hold the banquet beforehand.

”The time is tight.” Luo Anguo said, turning a walnut in his hand.

”I’ve consulted Sitian’s views. Though a bit rushed, we also plan to do it before returning to the military.” Luo Xudong said.

Returning to the military would involve many tasks, especially as he had been away for years. Stabilizing might take several months; the wedding could inevitably be delayed.

”I can arrange everything related to the wedding.” Luo Xudong said.

Though time was short, he didn’t plan to simplify things. Quite the opposite, he intended to make it as refined as possible, not wanting to wrong Beisitian.

Having made the decision, Mrs. Qin and Luo Anguo began poring over the calendar, thinking the 26th of next month was a great date — lunar 26th, solar 16th. What a good day!

With the date set, Luo Xudong got busy. After years of undercover work, he wasn’t unproductive; many former connections were still useful. That’s why he was confident in arranging a sophisticated wedding banquet for Beisitian in a short time.

Luo Xudong busied himself day after day, and Beisitian didn’t idle either, overseeing the making of their wedding attire.

Wearing white wedding dresses was becoming popular here, but Beisitian, inherently conservative, didn’t favor white. She chose a fitted red qipao with many contemporary fashionable elements.

For this, Luo Xudong even brought in a designer from Qingzhou City. While Beisitian initially felt it unnecessary, after viewing the designer’s sketches, she found them much more attractive than current styles and accepted.

Time passed day by day. With Luo Xudong around, Beisitian indeed felt at ease, as he handled all the wedding preparations. This reliance felt pretty good too.

In rural areas, marrying, building a house, and having children were big deals. News of the eldest son at Luo Er’s family getting ready for marriage spread, unsurprising to many.

The day approached quickly. Beisitian felt emotional, not expecting to fulfill in a year here what was a lifetime regret in her previous life.

Unlike parental approval in her last life, at least Luo Xudong was the one she wanted in her heart.

Beisitian gazed at the starry sky with a faint smile, ”Master, you can be at ease now. Your disciple has a home.”
