909. Formal Proposal
Even after Xiao Yan and Wei Jiangyuan finished their discussion, Lei Jingxiao remained outside the door, still very attentive.
Seeing their expressions, he asked curiously, "What were you talking about in there?"
Wei Jiangyuan smiled jokingly: "It's nothing, it's nothing, I was just praising you for being a smart person."
"Hmm?" Lei Jingxiao narrowed his eyes, replying with a less-than-friendly expression, "Praising me? You, surnamed Wei, are you really that kind-hearted?"
"Hey, you're underestimating me. I'm not praising you at all. It's because you're a really smart person, and a prodigy of the Lei Clan, one of the best on the continent." Wei Jiangyuan said, giving Lei Jingxiao a thumbs up.
Seeing his performance, Lei Jingxiao couldn't help but feel a little smug, but also somewhat doubtful: "Although what you said is correct, I still feel like something's not quite right..."
……
Starfall Pavilion is located in the area where the Valley of Medicine and Poison is situated.
After Xiao Yan was resurrected, Little Fairy Doctor almost never left the Starfall Pavilion, since the Xiao family members were there, and Yao Lao was also there.
Little Fairy Doctor also didn't want her daughter Xiao Qingqing to leave any of her family members. Although she had been staying in the Starfall Pavilion and managing the Medicine and Poison Valley would be much more troublesome, she was happy to do so.
Venerable Feng had always treated Little Fairy Doctor as his own daughter and was extremely satisfied with her. He naturally strongly supported her willingness to stay in Starfall Pavilion, and even specially designated an area for Medicine Poison Valley and Little Fairy Doctor.
That day, Little Fairy Doctor was still working at her desk as usual, handling daily chores and writing something.
Xiao Yan also appeared here without leaving a trace, and upon entering, he saw an extremely moving scene.
The Little Fairy Doctor has skin as white as snow, clear eyes, and a gentle and charming temperament. Even while writing at her desk, her movements are extremely neat and orderly.
"Xian'er, what are you doing?"
Upon hearing the footsteps, Little Fairy Doctor already knew that Xiao Yan had arrived, and a faint smile remained on her lips.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's question, Little Fairy Doctor playfully covered up her writing with both hands, preventing Xiao Yan from seeing it.
"I'll keep you in suspense for now; I'll tell you when it's finished."
Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow: "It seems to be something extraordinary indeed."
Then, Little Fairy Doctor looked at Xiao Yan before her, her beautiful eyes flashing as she thought of an idea. Feigning anger, she gave Xiao Yan a cold, disapproving look: "By the way, why isn't our young master with Xun'er? Did he upset her and won't let her in?"
"I've been to Xun'er's place, but there are some things I need to discuss with you." Xiao Yan subconsciously touched his nose.
Seeing his honest expression, Little Fairy Doctor, who wasn't angry at first, couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied and resentful: "Tell me, tell me. Sure enough, you won't come looking for me if there's nothing wrong."
Xiao Yi Xian thought that Xiao Yan had encountered many things he didn't understand in the Heavenly Tomb, so as usual, she came to discuss them with her and listen to her opinion.
Despite her dissatisfaction, Little Fairy Doctor will still do her job well. As for Xun'er's appearance, no matter how magnanimous Little Fairy Doctor is, it will always cause her attitude to change and become unbalanced, though only very slightly.
Then, a sincere smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face. His deep eyes were fixed on Little Fairy Doctor, and his usually stable emotions fluctuated considerably, his voice trembling slightly: "I want to ask you, when are we getting married?"
"Of course... What?" Little Fairy Doctor originally wanted to give Xiao Yan a serious analysis, but upon hearing this news, her hand trembled as she tidied her desk.
Then he suddenly raised his head and stared at Xiao Yan, their eyes meeting.
However, Little Fairy Doctor noticed that Xiao Yan's eyes were full of sincerity, without a trace of joking.
"What...what do you mean...?"
If a third person were here at this moment, they would witness a very peculiar situation. The usually meticulous and efficient Little Fairy Doctor, the master of the Medicine and Poison Valley, was rendered speechless by Xiao Yan's simple words.
Little Fairy Doctor felt a mix of excitement and unease, along with a sense of apprehension.
Xiao Yan smiled and walked directly to Little Fairy Doctor's side. He took her hand and said to her earnestly, word by word, "I want to ask you, when can we get married? I want you to be my wife, is that alright?"
Looking at the figure so close to her, hearing the incredibly clear voice, and feeling Xiao Yan's unique aura, Little Fairy Doctor finally realized: Xiao Yan hadn't misspoke, and she hadn't misheard; he really was asking when they could get married.
However, the usually calm and collected Little Fairy Doctor, upon confirming the matter, felt her heart race and her head become warm.
"Getting married... but now, there's no time, is there? The timing isn't good either..."
"You...shouldn't you have a lot of things to do? Shouldn't the wedding be postponed a bit longer?"
"Oh, right! There's also Xun'er. Xun'er is also at Xingyun Pavilion. Are we going to get married in front of her?"
At this moment, Little Fairy Doctor seemed to have truly lost all reason. Not only did she not agree immediately, but she kept finding reasons, as if to prove that now was definitely not a good time to get married.
Seeing Xiao Yixian like this, Xiao Yan was well aware of his lover's current state.
Therefore, Xiao Yan patiently explained, "Since returning from the Heavenly Tomb, I haven't had any particularly urgent things to do."
"The timing is also excellent. Father, elder brother, teacher, teacher's wife... all these people who are very important to us are at Starfall Pavilion. If you feel there is anyone else who must come, we can go and invite them right away."
"I do have a lot of things to do, but I also promised you that we would get married after I met with my father and the others. Because of the Heavenly Tomb, it has already been delayed for a while, and I haven't apologized to you yet."
Xiao Yan spoke these words in a slow and deliberate manner, as if he had pondered them many, many times in his heart.
"I've already asked Xun'er beforehand. There's no distinction between wives and concubines between us. You are my wife, and Xun'er will also be my wife. There's no contradiction between marrying Xun'er and marrying you."
Finally, as if suddenly remembering something, Xiao Yan asked Little Fairy Doctor, "I don't think I've ever seriously asked you before, Fairy, would you be willing to marry me?"
Upon hearing this question, Little Fairy Doctor seemed to snap out of her daze and burst out laughing.
A most captivating smile radiated from her gentle and beautiful face; it was a genuine smile from the heart, a smile that only Xiao Yan could see.
A faint blush appeared on Little Fairy Doctor's face, and her eyes seemed to be shimmering with tears, as if she was about to burst into tears from being too excited.
"I'm willing, of course I'm willing. I've been waiting for you for so, so long, Xiao Yan."
