The eldest lady became popular in the farming variety show

Yan Jie firmly refused to allow Jiang Hexi to cut his hair, but he allowed her to wash his hair.

He held her in his arms and let her stretch her neck to scratch his hair, squeezing out foam on her hands.

The bathroom had a floor-to-ceiling mirror, an oversized bathtub and a panoramic skylight with a starry sky. In such a charming atmosphere, she wasted time washing his hair.

Yan Jie said with a gloomy face, "Why did you wash my hair?"

"Your hair is sprayed with hairspray. I can't sleep well with the smell."

Jiang Hexi's fingers weaved through his hair, combing his short hair into strange shapes. "I like men who are clean and neat."

"The foam is getting in my eyes."

"Close your eyes."

Yan Jie had to close his eyes. After he could no longer see anything, his sense of touch became unusually sensitive. She scratched and rubbed his scalp again and again, causing clusters of tingling sensations on his scalp that flowed through his whole body like an electric current.

He asked in a somewhat exhausted tone, "Are you done washing?"

"No, I have to catch it again."

Jiang Hexi gathered his short hair up in bunches, creating a sky-high hairstyle. She tried so hard to hold back her laughter that she injured herself internally, not knowing that his muscles were tense from the congestion and he was in extreme pain, so she didn't care.

Yan Jie lowered his head and kissed her neck, rubbing the foam on her chin.

"There's foam all over the head, and I haven't flushed it yet!"

He listened to her screams and kissed her even more fiercely.

Jiang Hexi hurriedly picked up the shower head and "watered" his hair, but she turned on cold water, which made both of them shiver. She immediately turned off the shower head in a hurry.

Yan Jie's gaze passed through her wet pajamas and fell on her wet body.

The cold water did not extinguish his anger, but instead made his desire grow wildly.

Jiang Hexi tried to defend herself, "Rinse your hair first."

"Shut up."

Yan Jie gave her a sidelong glance and executed her on the spot.

After a satisfying feast.

Yan Jie pulled her out of the messy bedding and put her on the pillow, then gave her a deep and lingering kiss. He couldn't help but say:

"It's already like this, how can we end it if we don't get married?"

Jiang Hexi saw the boundless ocean in those deep eyes. She looked at him steadily and said:

"you sure?"

"I am absolutely certain and steadfast."

"I can't... drag you down with me. I have to... Emmm... invest again——"

She was not blinded by the oath, nor did she lose her mind after the passion. "Just wait until I stop losing money."

He lifted her chin, and rubbed her delicate, cold white cheek with his thumb, and said in a deep and hoarse voice:

"I can't wait."

She suddenly understood why he was pushing the boundaries of marriage. He wanted to end their separation, and he couldn't stand having to find excuses every time he went on a date, so he thought of getting married.

"Then... I'll listen to you -"

Yan Jie stretched out his hand and took out a red velvet box from under the pillow. The lid of the box popped open, revealing a gold ring inside.

Jiang Hexi's shocked facial features perfectly expressed an expression: W-what-the-hell?!

She just said something ambiguous to deal with him, but he actually took out the ring.

It turns out that the person who couldn't extricate himself from the emotions and couldn't think straight was not him, but her.

Yan Jie put the gold ring on her ring finger, and without waiting for her to make a move, he picked up another pair of rings and put them on his own ring finger.

The main point is not to give her a chance to regret.

Jiang Hexi looked at the golden ring on her slender white finger, which was so dazzling under the dim wall lamp. She was about to beg for mercy and say a few nice words when he pulled her to lie on his chest.

"Either continue or go to sleep, your choice."

She had no choice but to accept her fate and close her eyes.

Back in the first class cabin of the flight.

Jiang Hexi sank into the wide chair, repeatedly stealing glances at Yan Jie who was working in the next seat, looking anxiously at the ring on her ring finger, and finally mustered up the courage to say:

"Honey, can I put this——"

"No."

Yan Jie glanced at her and said, "Try to pick one if you dare."

Jiang Hexi pursed her lips and turned to look out the window. After calming down, she told the reason why she didn't plan to get married:

"I'm optimistic about a project and I'm ready to invest in it. The early research and development stage is quite long and will not generate any income. If the research fails, the team will lose everything. I don't want to drag anyone down."

"Do you have to do this?"

"I must do it."

He didn't even ask what project she was working on, and simply stated his attitude: "Then do it."

She said with concern: "But——"

"Jiang Hexi."

Yan Jie interrupted her and said, "You can doubt yourself, but don't doubt my judgment of people."

Jiang Hexi couldn't stop her tears from flowing. She suddenly threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly and said nothing.

Yan Jie quickly steadied the computer to prevent it from falling to the ground.

He tried to persuade her to relax, "It's just a few small goals. Your husband can afford the loss."

“Don’t lose a single goal.”

She said unconvincedly: "My money is mine, and your money is also mine. The money in my hands can only make money. This project must succeed."

After the plane arrived in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, Yan Jie directly transferred to Yicheng.

Jiang Hexi took a car back home, moved his luggage to the second floor, and stayed in the room without coming out.

It was not until the meal was served and Ms. Zhou urged her three times that she came down from upstairs with her hands in her trouser pockets.

The family sat around the dining table and had dinner.

Jiang Hexi held the bowl in his left hand, sat on a chair and drank the soup quietly.

Ms. Zhou noticed her abnormality and asked in a tense voice, "You only drink soup and don't eat rice. Do you think the food I cook is not good?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

Jiang Hexi was visibly embarrassed. "I ate too well in Switzerland and gained a lot of weight. I'm trying to lose weight recently."

Jiang Wenze exposed her and said, "You're still drinking soup to lose weight?"

Jiang Hexi: “…”

Ms. Zhou ordered her, "Eat."

The moment Jiang Hexi pulled her right hand out of her trouser pocket and grasped the chopsticks, the four pairs of eyes present all stared at the gold ring on her ring finger, each expression more complicated than the last.

Against the backdrop of her delicate skin tone, the gold ring glowed so brightly that it was hard not to notice it.

"This is... I bought it while shopping. I put it on because it looked pretty."

When these words were spoken, no one in the family believed them.

Jiang Wenjing asked on the spot, "Didn't Yan Jie mention engagement last time he came over? Why did he even buy a wedding ring?"

"He said he was engaged, so you believed it?"

Jiang Wenze mercilessly complained about Yan Jie in front of Jiang Hexi, "I can guarantee with my life that next time he comes to my house, he will definitely change his words and ask for marriage."
