It was a kiss in the literal sense, passing by like a dragonfly, and it was over before his lips even had time to feel the warmth of the other person.
However, Shen Qiqi's heart was beating wildly. She couldn't believe that her first kiss, which she had cherished for two lifetimes, was just... gone?!
She stared at Xie Beiming with wide eyes: "You..."
"Qiqi, since ancient times, coming to propose marriage has been a matter for men. How can I let you bear this criticism?"
Shen Qiqi: "..."
She was the one who wanted to break off her engagement with Xie Beiming in the first place. If the Shen family went to the Xie family to propose marriage...she would indeed be criticized by the world.
But……
The shock in Shen Qiqi's head was defeated by reality. She pulled herself out of the scream of "the first kiss is gone", looked at Xie Beiming, and said blankly: "But didn't you ask me for status just now?"
Xie Beiming took a sip and said with a smile: "Of course a matter as big as a reputation must be taken very seriously. Does Qiqi want to give it to me so quietly?"
Shen Qiqi thought for a moment and shook her head: "I don't want to touch him secretly." That would be too unfair to Xie Beiming.
The corners of Xie Beiming's mouth raised a little wider, and he said, "So, I want to book you now."
"A reservation? Do you mean an engagement?"
"It's more rigorous than getting engaged."
Shen Qiqi: "..."
Maybe it was because of the big shock she received today. Shen Qiqi felt that her brain was still a bit dull and not strong enough. She really couldn't think of anything "more rigorous than getting engaged."
what is the matter.
Fortunately, Xie Beiming didn't leave her confused for too long.
He spread his palms.
Shen Qiqi lowered her eyes and saw a butterfly lying in the middle of Xie Beiming's white and shiny palm.
The butterfly was no bigger than a fingernail, its body was a semi-transparent silvery white, and its two tentacles, which were thinner than hair, swayed gently towards her, as if they were saying hello to her.
This was the first time Shen Qiqi saw such a small butterfly. She curiously asked Xie Beiming: "This is...?"
Xie Beiming said: "This is the Tongxin butterfly I raised. Once you make a heart oath with your blood, you can only belong to me in this life. If one day you violate the oath, the toxins on the Tongxin butterfly will Invading your heart in an instant."
Shen Qiqi's eyes widened.
Xie Beiming stared into her dark eyes and asked, "Qiqi, are you willing?"
"..." Shen Qiqi swallowed hard, said nothing, and answered with actions.
She had rejected Xie Beiming's marriage, and she had also rejected Qiu Changfeng's marriage. With Xie Beiming, her credibility in this regard was probably pitifully low, and could even be zero.
Xie Beiming was worried that she would be unstable and capricious again, so he asked her for a promise... which is completely understandable.
Shen Qiqi bit her fingertip without hesitation, squeezed out a drop of blood from the fingertip, and dropped it on the little silver butterfly.
The round blood droplets fell and were absorbed by Little Silver Butterfly's body in almost the blink of an eye.
Following this, Shen Qiqi's heart trembled slightly, as if something had penetrated her.
Looking at Xie Beiming's palm again, the little silver butterfly that absorbed her blood has disappeared?
Is this... considered a vow?
Shen Qiqi looked at Xie Beiming for confirmation. Xie Beiming didn't seem to expect that she made the decision without asking. He looked a little stunned. It wasn't until Shen Qiqi looked over that he came back to his senses. With a thought, another silver butterfly appeared in the palm of my hand.
This one is smaller than the previous one, with two thin tentacles covering its head, like a shy girl's half-covered hands.
Don't ask how Shen Qiqi knew this silver butterfly belonged to a girl, just ask intuitively.
But why did Xie Beiming bring out another silver butterfly?
Shen Qiqi looked at the other party suspiciously. The latter didn't say anything. He bit his fingertip and dripped a drop of fingertip blood onto the silver butterfly. After the silver butterfly that absorbed his blood disappeared, he opened his mouth to give an explanation.
"Concentric butterflies are born in pairs. Once they are in contact with humans, they will be born and die with the master's death. Moreover, as long as one of them dies, the other one will be there regardless of where they are. Wherever you go, you can sense it immediately and follow it immediately," Xie Beiming said.
Shen Qiqi chewed his words hard and finally realized the seriousness of the matter. She jumped up and shouted: "You are crazy Xie Beiming! Do you know what you are doing!"
Xie Beiming nodded: "I know that from now on, I will live if you give birth to me, and I will not be able to live alone if you die."
"You know how dare you do this?!"
"Why don't I dare? Just now I said that Tongxindie can supervise the heart oath. Didn't you make it without hesitation? You can give your life to me, why can't I give mine? In your hands?"
"I……"
Shen Qiqi was speechless, she said in her heart that I am different from you. I dare to give my life to you because I experienced what happened in my previous life and I know how firm my heart is for you in this life.
But how could she explain this to Xie Beiming about the past and present life?
Xie Beiming didn't seem to have any intention of asking her for an explanation. He took her hand, brought it to his mouth, gently kissed the back of her hand, and said softly to her: "I will work hard to live, and please do so." You have to work hard to live, even if it’s for me.”
In this life, no matter what our ending is or where we go, I will face it with you.
Shen Qiqi's breathing was a little heavy, and indescribable emotions swept over her, and were dispelled by the strong belief that suddenly awakened her.
She sniffed hard and said harshly: "I will try my best to live."
You live and I survive, you die and I perish.
In this life, we live and die together.
A strong belief circulated between the two of them. Shen Qiqi wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, took Xie Beiming's hand and shook it: "Well, Mr. Xie, can we go to dinner now?"
Xie Beiming glared at her: "We all share life and death, do you still want to call me Mr. Xie?"
"Yes, I can't call you Master Xie anymore. It sounds too unfamiliar. So what should I call you? Xie Beiming? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it sounds like an enemy coming to collect debts, so what should I call you?" One for another."
Shen Qiqi bit her lip and thought hard.
After "Mingming, Ming'er, Beiming" were all denied one after another, she was at a loss. She spread her hands and asked Xie Beiming: "This won't work, that won't work either. Then tell me, what do you want me to call you?" You."
Before Xie Beiming finished speaking, he held her hand, and then wrote a name on her open palm one stroke at a time.
Shen Qiqi's eyes followed the slender finger with distinct joints, and when she judged the words through the movement of the other person's writing, she was like a frightened little rabbit, her eyes suddenly widened, staring at Xie Bei Ming's face was full of shock and disbelief.
