"How many days do you plan to stay this time?" I opened my hand and carefully examined the wedding ring on my ring finger. When I was proposed to, I was too overwhelmed with emotions to really pay attention. Now that the excitement has subsided, I finally have the presence of mind to observe this, the first ring I've ever received in my life.
I gently rubbed the edge of the ring. My ring finger had always been empty, and now that it's adorned with this ring, I suddenly feel a bit uncomfortable.
Lin Haoming was busy clearing the rose petals from the floor, placing them one by one into the vase on the dining table. He also made an effort to talk to me, "Three days. I took some time off from work, so why don't we... take advantage of these few days and get our marriage certificate?"
I touched the hand wearing the ring and hesitated for a moment, somewhat surprised. "In such a hurry?"
He finally finished arranging the last rose, sat down beside me, wrapped his long arms around my waist, pulled me into his embrace, buried his head in my neck, and answered with a somewhat aggrieved voice, "I don't know when I'll be back next time. I have such a beautiful wife, I have to cherish her, right?"
I nestled in his arms, feeling a bit awkward. "Engagement is between the two of us, but marriage involves both families. I have to inform my parents, right?"
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit tense. Lin Haoming didn't speak, just kept rubbing his head against my neck, making me couldn't help but laugh. Although he didn't speak, I could hear his voice in my mind clearly, "Hurry and let me marry you, hurry and let me marry you..." "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not in a rush, why are you?" I waved the ring in front of him, smiling and comforting him.
Although I have known Lin Haoming for fifteen years and we know each other inside out, and I am very eager to truly become his family, I still need some time to prepare before taking the quick step into the marriage hall.
"I am certainly in a hurry, it's almost too late to get married!" Lin Haoming revealed a hint of panic in his voice.
I raised my head in confusion, "What is almost too late?"
He suddenly tightened his grip on my hand, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes, followed by a look of innocence as he gazed at me. "What are you talking about? I didn't say anything just now."
"Could it be that I was thinking too urgently and it just blurted out involuntarily?" He wondered in his heart, his eyes slightly drooping at the corners.
Something's not right, he's not right. Could there be some secret he's keeping from me? Could it be another surprise like a proposal?
Lin Haoming saw my puzzled expression and quickly changed the subject, "Is it because you've been working too hard lately? I can tell you look tired as soon as I see you." As he spoke, he massaged my shoulders for me.
I comfortably squinted my eyes. Forget it, he wouldn't do anything bad to me. After fifteen years of being together, don't I know his character?
I followed his lead and continued, "You don't know, I've been dealing with that scumbag Chen Cheng recently, it's really been bothering me." Mentioning Chen Cheng made me frown irritably. Do I really have to follow Xiao Xiao's method and use money to buy off those girls who have been hurt by Chen Cheng?
"Chen Cheng, is that celebrity who recently became popular for cheating?" Lin Haoming gently smoothed out my furrowed brow, repeatedly running his fingers through my hair.
"Yeah, even you, an old-fashioned guy like you, know about it?" You see, Lin Haoming never pays attention to entertainment news and is completely clueless about popular terms online. I often tease him for being so young yet living like an "old-fashioned guy."
"Why can't he just be a respected male celebrity? Why cheat and fool around with women?" I felt indignant for those girls who were deceived by Chen Cheng.
"Who knows?" Lin Haoming shrugged, making no comment on the matter, then got up from the sofa and left, clearly uninterested in the topic. "I'm going to take a shower first."
I was very curious about his views on male infidelity, and I had been hoping to hear his true feelings. But as he got up and left, my plan fell through. I pouted, feeling disappointed.
"All men are the same, they have a woman at home but still think about others. Your Lin Haoming might be the same, don't blame me for not warning you, be careful!" Suddenly, my best friend Xu Qiu's words popped into my mind.
Xu Qiu is a proponent of being single. After being deceived by her ex-boyfriend for money and sex, she believes that there is not a single good man in the world. After she found out that I was dating Lin Haoming, she warned me countless times to carefully see Lin Haoming's true colors, so as not to end up like her.
Lin Haoming's true colors... I turned to look at the bathroom, the shower head was dripping water, and I could only see a blurry figure through the glass door.
He wouldn't cheat, I rubbed the ring on my ring finger, my thoughts gradually drifting, life doesn't have so many fifteen years...
Suddenly, Lin Haoming's phone lit up, and a message popped up.
