Xia Shi finally couldn’t wait any longer; she was going to find him.

Even if she had to search every corner of M Country, it was better than bitterly waiting here.

However, just as she packed her things and was ready to go abroad, Zhai En returned.

The man held a bouquet of fiery red roses, standing downstairs, the sunset’s afterglow cast upon him, as if draped in a layer of golden light.

His smile was bright, his gaze deep with affection.

Seeing this scene from the window, Xia Shi rushed downstairs.

When she ran in front of Zhai En, her eyes turned red.

The man had lost quite a bit of weight; his chin was sharper, his eye sockets deeper, with a hint of pallor on his face.

The longest scar on his face made Xia Shi tear up.

It stretched from the corner of his right eye down to his chin.

The knife wound had already scarred, and a small piece had fallen off, looking incredibly fierce.

Clearly worn out, yet he smiled so radiantly.

Zhai En gazed deeply at the tear-soaked girl in front of him and suddenly knelt on one knee, "Shi Shi, marry me."

Five years ago, he had proposed once.

Five years later, he proposed again.

"Shi Shi, I’ve sorted everything out, let’s get married, marry me."

Xia Shi covered her mouth, unable to believe she could still wait for this day.

The disaster five years ago had devastated their family of three.

She thought they would live in darkness for the rest of their lives, but unexpectedly, the sky cleared.

So much hardship, so much pain, looking back, it seemed like a dark, endless cloud that finally dispersed.

Xia Shi was glad she wore a mask, otherwise she’d cry miserably.

"Cry only this time, no more tears after today."

Zhai En said, taking out a ring.

It was the wedding ring they chose together five years ago. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Their happiness broke on the day they chose this ring, let everything reconnect through this ring once more.

In the beautiful dusk, he gently slid the ring onto her finger.

Everything was just like five years ago.

Zhai En stood up, pulled her into his arms, and reached to lift her mask.

Such a romantic proposal, of course, deserved a kiss.

"Your face..." Xia Shi choked back her question.

Why would it be like this, such a deep scar.

He was so handsome before, his face without any blemishes, how could he now have such a deep, terrifying scar.

Zhai En paused, smiled indifferently, "Accidentally got slashed by someone."

Xia Shi’s heart ached, how painful this horrible scar must have been.

"Did it hurt?"

Zhai En shook his head. Compared to the injuries she suffered five years ago, this pain was nothing.

"Why didn’t you treat it, leaving such a deep scar." She extended her hand and gently touched the scar, it felt rigid.

It was clear he hadn’t applied any medicine at the time.

Zhai En laughed adoringly, "It’s fine to leave a scar, I’m disfigured too, now we’re perfect together."

At that blood-drenched wedding, the knife wasn’t the only wound he received on his face.

When he was taken to the hospital, all other wounds were treated, except for the scar on his face, he told the doctor not to bother.

Leave it.

She was disfigured, he was too, and she would no longer have to worry about not being his match.

A perfect match, how wonderful.

Xia Shi paused, "Ah? You mean you intentionally left a scar because I was disfigured."

"Yes? Wife, isn’t it touching?" Zhai En’s smile was bright.

Xia Shi furrowed her brow, she couldn’t bear to tell him the truth...

"Shi Shi, what kind of expression is that."

Xia Shi pressed her lips and reached out to remove her mask, revealing a flawless face...
