The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 280. Proposal
Overused? If someone else sees it, the answer is yes. And it was too much for a swordsman like Lin Tian.
After his awakening from a critical period during this time, the entire Zhang family welcomed him and it was as if only then did their family celebrate the victory of the Black and White Battle.
Everyone took turns to visit Lin Tian, whether it was from the servants, bodyguards or the elite troops.
However, there was one young girl who stopped the activities of the visit. When one of the maids came to congratulate and thank Lin Tian for his recovery, Zhang Qiaofeng threw a container of brush over his face.
"Go!! Don't you see this time? Lin Tian had just woken up and you guys were bothering him instead! Go and tell everyone no one comes in here without my permission!"
The girl snapped and frightened the servant. Lin Tian was only able to smile awkwardly as a form of apology to the servant.
From that day on, Lin Tian received the full attention of Zhang Qiaofeng. From morning until morning again he had always been on guard in Lin Tian's room. Even when Lin Tian accidentally coughed due to the passing dust, this girl had already moved quickly to throw various kinds of questions at him.
"You okay?"
"Is anyone still sick?"
"Tell me!"
All of Zhang Qiaofeng's behavior was actually able to make Lin Tian shake his head and sigh. Besides his gratitude of course.
When Zhang Qiaofeng got the demands from Zhang Hongli and Minghao for having left the task, casually and like a sleepy person he replied.
"I'm going to take a few more weeks' rest. Tired of it after almost losing a life like that time."
"Sat! That corpse was almost Lin Tian, not you brat!" his grandfather rode on a blackboard and kicked the table.
However Zhang Qiaofeng only replied briefly and thus. "We are a pair of White Dragons. One sick, the other sick. Remember, we're a pair."
...****************...
That night, Lin Tian took Zhang Qiaofeng away to the garden behind his house. The girl was already furious and did not allow Lin Tian to leave until things improved. But Lin Tian kept forcing him.
Under the moonlight, the two stood facing each other. Lin Tian's face looked radiant and slightly reddish. Inversely with nonanya who frown.
"Just tell me what you want to say! An hour from now you should go to bed soon to restore your health."
Lin Tian laughed blandly while scratching the back of his head.
"Why are you carrying a sword? You want to kill me? Well try it, with a limp body almost dead that you can what!?" now he's an open challenge.
Lin Tian paid no heed to that and immediately said, "Miss, isn't it through Xin Kiu, I've given this sword to you?"
Zhang Qiaofeng remained sullen and looked sharply.
"Miss?" Lin Tian was confused not getting an answer from his nona.
"How many times do I have to say, don't call me Miss again! Aren't we a family?"
"But miss, I'm just–"
"Personal bodyguard? Then on my orders I revoke your title as a personal bodyguard! Call me by name!!" his tone was high, but also taut.
Lin Tian went awry. Actually all this time his cheeks had been slapped every time he called "miss" to Zhang Qiaofeng. But because it felt awkward to call out names, he did not dare to do so.
Finally, after gathering courage and determination, he tried his best to call out the girl's name.
"Eh...Zhang Qiaofeng..i–"
"Call names, no formal words!" cut the girl off quickly.
Lin Tian sighed resignedly and again said, "Zhang Qiaofeng nonaku–"
"Call names, no formal words, no ladies and gentlemen. Our position is level!" back the girl pointed straight while clenching her hands. It looked extremely anxious with Lin Tian's behavior.
"Huh.." a sigh rang out from Lin Tian's mouth. But it was only for a moment before he looked back at the girl with a faint smile.
"Zhang Qiaofeng, didn't I give you this sword through Xin Kiu? Why did you give it back?" he was grateful in his heart because his words were not cut into pieces due to his nervousness.
Zhang Qiaofeng raised his eyebrows next to him when he replied, "That's yours from the beginning."
"I gave it to you!"
Zhang Qiaofeng remained silent and looked at Lin Tian flatly. This situation made Lin Tian gulp down his hard-earned saliva in fear of the bad thing that would happen.
"Well.the face is sinister." he lamented inwardly.
Lin Tian patted Zhang Qiaofeng's hand and took a step back, "It's not just that."
Zhang Qiaofeng sneered and looked annoyed. "Then what? Hurry up and don't mess around! Your body is still not recovered!" fierce snarl.
This was when Lin Tian's chest seemed to have almost collapsed due to the pounding of his heart that was increasingly hunting. Lin Tian's breathing was disordered and his face was turning red. Mouth shakes. And unfortunately, Zhang Qiaofeng misunderstood this.
"Eh...eh...What's wrong with you!? Dumbass! I told you you haven't recovered yet, let's go back to the room!" curse Zhang Qiaofeng and try to pick Lin Tian up. But the young man pulled him back.
"No...Zhang Qiaofeng.heard for a while.." he said stammeredly who was replied with a puzzled look of Zhang Qiaofeng.
Lin Tian's breathing grew more and more hunting, his face turning red and his eyes glancing here and there, trying to avoid direct eye contact with Zhang Qiaofeng.
He took a few breaths before closing his eyes to calm his mind. Then his mouth sounded. "It seems like it's time...."
"Well..what time?" the girl was even more confused after accidentally hearing the muttering of the young man.
Lin Tian ignored him and knelt down, then in a slow motion he raised his sword with both hands and spoke softly.
"Eh..what is this?" Zhang Qiaofeng was shocked.
"Zhang Qiaofeng.honestly I am a little disappointed that you returned this sword to me" said Lin Tian without daring to raise his head.
"Eh boy! What are you talking about? Why did it suddenly become pitched like chanting a verse!?"
"Zhang Qiaofeng, this sword I gave you not only as a gift, but also. The sword that has saved me so many times, then from it–aduh!"
Zhang Qiaofeng had already slapped his head in dismay and shouted loudly, "If it is in the army, your life is definitely lost for giving a convoluted report to your commander! Speak clearly, what do you want!!?"
"This sword is the manifestation of my feelings for you! Will you accept my proposal by receiving this sword? A sword as beautiful and elegant as you?"
A sense of relief enveloped Lin Tian's heart. But only for a moment before cold sweat poured in his temple. His heart beat faster when he heard the girl's breath hunting and there was no answer for a long time.
Then his heart ached when he realized one thing. Quickly he said with a bland laugh.
"Haha..what the fuck am I? I'm just an unrepresented child who receives kindness in the Zhang family. I shouldn't be so presumptuous to my non like this." he muttered as to himself. He pulled his sword back.
"Hey."
His movements came to a halt as Zhang Qiaofeng's delicate voice sounded. He wanted to look but did not dare. Imagine it, of course, if the nonanya is angry, this time the most fierce anger certainly.
"Our children will have to use the descendants of Zhang. You have to change your surname to Zhang and you have to accompany me on leadership duties." Zhang Qiaofeng said softly.
"Eh?" so surprised, Lin Tian widened his eyes and quickly looked. But before his head was raised, there was one delicate hand pressing him to stay down.
Then the girl's right hand received Lin Tian's sword and tucked it into her belt. After that without saying a word, Zhang Qiaofeng helped Lin Tian stand up. But one of his hands kept pressing Lin Tian's head down.
"Eh..eh...eh....i-that means.me...."
"Why? You asked for it yourself, right?"
Then Lin Tian felt a loud creak in his head and heard the nonanya swearing, "Basic, just like that should just go out of the room. You still have to rest for the next few days. Looking for a romantic place?"
It was as if it was a sharp sound, but Lin Tian could hear it from his breath, if the nonanya was smiling. And that was said a little nervously.
"Eh...so, am I accepted?"
"Not a boy!" back one hard tease landed on his head.
"I still have a grandfather! Tell my grandfather first that we just thought about the others. You're in such a hurry!" swearing the girl hard to cover her nervousness.
Lin Tian smiled again. The widest smile she has ever shown. A sincere smile that comes from the heart, a smile of happiness and satisfaction.
"Thank you...."
Zhang Qiaofeng simply stroked Lin Tian's head in response. If Lin Tian saw her, he would naturally be shocked to see a puddle of water full of novelty on the eyelids of the girl. If you do not obey your pride, Zhang Qiaofeng would have cried so badly.
"Hehe..I can't wait to get well soon, then we put on a wedding dress, have our own house, then make–Auuwww!"
"Don't continue!"
