Chapter 330 Engagement

Chapter 330 Engagement
Jin Qixuan thought about it all the way.

When I got home, I finally spoke.

"Jie Eun, I think our relationship has reached its peak, and it's time to move on to the second act."

"Act II? You mean..."

When Lee Ji-eun heard this, she vaguely felt what would happen next.

My little heart suddenly started beating uncontrollably.

"How about we get engaged first?"

Jin Qixuan's voice was calm.

But every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Li Zhien's heart.

In fact, Lee Ji-eun had dreamed of marrying him a long time ago.

Even when I fell in love with Jin Qixuan, I had already thought of a name for my child.

What is the breeze, the bright moon, the nanmu tree... (/dog head)

However, she was not overwhelmed by the great joy, but asked calmly:
"You mean engagement? Is it a hasty decision made because of external pressure (the expectations of the elders), or is it..."

Before Li Zhien finished speaking, Jin Qixuan interrupted her:

"No, engagement is not only a big deal for you, it's also a big deal for me. I won't make a hasty decision."

"I propose engagement because I sincerely want to spend the rest of my life with you. Whether it's laughter or tears, I want to experience it all with you."

"When my uncle sent me to the airport last year, he asked me if I had thought about my future with you."

"I replied that I would marry you immediately if he would allow me to do so."

"So, when I say engagement, it's not something that comes to mind, it's something that was planned long ago."

"For the rest of my life, no matter where I am, the most gentle corner of my heart will only be reserved for you."

"No matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, the seasons change, cold or warm, you are my only support and companion."

"Wherever I look, there will only be you."

"Because you are the most important person in my life and everything in my life."

Li Zhien looked at Jin Qixuan's affectionate and serious eyes, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Is it excitement? Anticipation? Or fear of the unknown future?

She couldn't tell what kind of emotion it was.

But she knew that at this moment, she was surrounded by a deep happiness.

"Xuanxuan um..."

Before she could finish, Jin Qixuan came forward and blocked her from saying the rest with his lips.

Only after Li Zhien kissed her until she felt dizzy did Jin Qixuan let her go and said:
"Say you want to."

Jin Qixuan's domineering and strong attitude at this moment was intertwined with all the good factors including his previous affectionate confession and the upcoming engagement news.

Countless fireworks instantly rose in her heart.

At this moment, Li Zhien felt that she was about to explode with joy.

However, she still forced herself to suppress the joy in her heart.

Pretending to be serious, she asked back, just like Jin Qixuan had asked her when they first confirmed their relationship:
"Let me ask you, what if our relationship fades due to the trivialities of life in the future?"

"Having money can solve all the trivialities of life."

"What if we have a disagreement or an argument?"

"Everything you said is right."

"If I have a baby in the future, will it divide your love for me?"

"No, they were just accidents."

"We?"

"Ah, did you forget? Didn't we take a test at the Jeju Island B&B? We can have three children..."

"Oh……"

Li Zhien recalled, nodded, and continued to ask:

"I became ugly after giving birth to my baby. What will you do?"

"Then I will become ugly with you."

"If I have a fight with the baby, who will you help?"

"Fuck him."

"Hee~ What if..."

"Alright, alright."

Jin Qixuan blocked her mouth with his fingers and said:

"No matter what happens, you will always be number one in my heart."

"Oh, you're already impatient before we're even engaged. You'll definitely scold me after we get married!"

"..."

Jin Qixuan was silent for a moment and said:
"Then keep asking."

"Humph."

Li Zhien raised her chin proudly and said:
"I'm too lazy to ask~"

"Go, go, go."

Jin Qixuan smiled dotingly, stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, touched her little head, and said:
"So shouldn't you now fulfill your duties as a fiancée?"

"What obligations? Wait, I haven't agreed to it yet!"

"Then what should I do to make you agree?"

"Um……"

Li Zhien pondered for a moment and said:
"Come with me to set off the fireworks."

"Now?"

Jin Qixuan raised his wrist and looked at the time.

It's already one o'clock in the morning.

Li Zhien's eyes widened instantly and she scolded:
"You don't want to?!"

"no no."

Jin Qixuan quickly explained:

"There aren't any fireworks stores open at this time."

"I have it here. I bought it last year but didn't put it on the plane because you're not allowed to bring it on the plane."

"Oh, where do we put it?"

“Oido Island near Seoul.”

"Row."

The reason why it is not placed downstairs.

The main reason is that this is the New Year countdown and the "New Year's Eve bell" ringing ceremony.

During this time, bamboo singing is prohibited in Seoul.

If you are caught, you will be fined at least 50 won.

The fine is a small matter, but it is embarrassing to be on the news and hot searches.

But it is only banned for a while.

After two o'clock, it's up to you.

But obviously, the excited Lee Ji-eun can't wait until then.

Forty minutes later.

The two arrived at Uil Island.

Under the night sky, the sea breeze from Wuer Island blew gently, bringing a hint of chill, but it could not blow away the passion in the two people's hearts.

Li Zhien excitedly took Jin Qixuan's hand and walked towards a relatively flat open space.

After finding a good spot, Jin Qixuan placed the fireworks box on the ground, pointed at one at random and asked:
"What does this firework look like when it's launched?"

Li Zhien took a look and said:

“This one is in the shape of a heart.”

"Then put this one first."

Jin Qixuan took out a windproof lighter and prepared to light the fuse of the fireworks.

"Zi zi zi ......"

As the fuse was lit, Kim Ki-hyeon quickly pulled Lee Ji-eun back.

"call out--"

"Clap clap clap..."

When the two of them turned around.

Beautiful heart-shaped fireworks are blooming in the night sky.

The colorful light illuminated the surrounding darkness and also illuminated the faces of Lee Ji-eun and Kim Ki-hyun.

Jin Qixuan was just about to express his admiration for the beautiful scenery.

Li Zhien beside him suddenly put her hand to her mouth and shouted:

"I'm getting engaged!!!"

The sound of the continuous fireworks explosions covered up most of the decibels of this conversation.

But Jin Qixuan, who was beside her, heard it clearly.

I was shocked at first.

But then, he was also infected by Li Zhien's excitement and happiness.

Then, Jin Qixuan imitated her and shouted loudly:
“I’m getting engaged too!!!”

The two people's voices intertwined in the night sky, complementing the splendor of the fireworks.

At this moment, the whole world stopped for them. Only the starry sky and the bright fireworks witnessed the upcoming happiness.

After a while, the fireworks gradually dissipated and the night sky returned to tranquility again.

"Still letting it go?"

Jin Qixuan asked Li Zhien who was leaning in his arms.

"Uh-huh!"

Then, the fireworks in the trunk bloomed with their beauty one after another within half an hour.

The night sky seemed to become their canvas.

Each burst of firework paints a unique color and shape on it.

The two of them snuggled together quietly, watching the last firework bloom in the sky, turning into a brilliant sea of light, and then gradually dissipating.
-
Shortly after.

The two returned home.

Although it was late at night, they were not sleepy at all.

"Come back with me tomorrow, and we'll tell my parents about this."

"Tomorrow? Um...okay."

Jin Qixuan hesitated for half a second and agreed.

The original plan was to take Lee Kwang-soo to visit director Shin Won-ho tomorrow and recommend him to join the cast of "Doctor Playlist".

Then, give gifts as per previous years’ practice to maintain the relationship.

But unfortunately, plans cannot change as fast as they should.

Obviously, one's own lifelong affairs are more important.

"So after the engagement, when will we get married?"

"Well... don't rush to get married. There should be an official announcement before that, right?"

"Oh yeah! I totally forgot about that!"

Li Zhien slapped her forehead, then asked with a smile:
"So when will we make the official announcement?"

Jin Qixuan asked back:

"When do you want it?"

“I want to make it official at my concert.”

Hearing this, Jin Qixuan nodded and said:
"Then can you hold your concert before the release of our movie? It can also warm up the movie."

Li Zhien thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she asked:
"So when will our movie be released?"

"I don't know. I guess it won't make it to the Cannes Film Festival, but it should be released this year."

"Oh……"

Before she could finish her words, Lee Ji-eun suddenly jumped up from the bed, threw off the quilt, and ran out.

Jin Qixuan didn't understand what was going on, but he stood up and followed.

I saw Li Zhien running barefoot and hurriedly into her music room.

Next, write and draw on the musical staff.

Then, I picked up the guitar, composed a short melody, and quickly entered the recording into the computer.

Afterwards, she used this guitar loop as the basis.

Single and double note embellishments, drum sets, root bass, etc. are constantly added.

Although Lee Ji-eun was wearing headphones, Kim Ki-hyeon was unable to hear the details of the music she was creating.

However, this did not prevent him from admiring the way Li Zhien focused on her work.

In fact, it’s not just men who show off their charm when they’re working hard that make women unable to extricate themselves.

vice versa.

Lee Ji-eun, who works hard, is also full of charming charm in Kim Ki-hyeon's eyes.

About an hour later.

Lee Ji-eun finished the first draft of the arrangement and turned around and waved to Kim Ki-hyeon.

Jin Qixuan immediately propped himself up and walked over, half-sitting on the armrest of the chair, put on headphones, and listened to the song that Lee Ji-eun had just composed.

The melody of the prelude is still full of IU's unique cheerful and lively style.

Light and agile.

As soon as people listen to it, their mood will involuntarily rise with the rhythm of the melody.

Entering the main song, based on the original guitar loop, only a set of rhythmic bass drums and two sets of snare drums were added.

But such a simple combination instantly elevates the layering and rhythm of the entire song to a higher level.

In the pre-chorus part, a 4356 chord bass, single and double harmonics of the electric guitar, and a drum set with a tango feel are added.

The addition of these elements allows the song to express rich emotions through accompaniment alone.

At the same time, it also lays a perfect foundation for the subsequent chorus.

Entering the chorus, a set of overlapping drum sounds and several synthesizer reverbs were added to the original basis.

This also makes the emotions expressed by the melody of the chorus more urgent, more tense and more infectious.

The arrangement of the whole song is not complicated.

Mainly through repeated melodic motives and harmonic changes, it creates a listening experience that is both stylish and energetic.

Even though there are no lyrics yet.

But Jin Qixuan had already heard the emotional connotation she wanted to express from the melody.

——The joy of the sublimation of love.

"How about it?"

“Fast-paced and action-packed.”

"anything else?"

"..."

Jin Qixuan was numb.

How did you pass the exam?

"If you can't understand what I want to say, I will regret the engagement!"

Hearing this, Jin Qixuan became anxious and said:

"From the beginning of love to passionate love and then to the expression of joy of emotional sublimation!"

"That's pretty much it."

IU patted his head with satisfaction.

"What song are you going to do?"

"It's the title song of the new album. After we sing it at the concert, we'll put a photo of us together on the big screen to make it official."

Hearing this, Jin Qixuan said with emotion:
"It seems that the singer is quite good."

"How to say?"

"No matter if it's happiness, anger, sadness or joy, you can express it through music. What a high-level thing."

"That's okay."

That's what it says.

But Jin Qixuan could see that at this moment, Lee Ji-eun was so proud that her tail was held up.

"Are we still going to bed? It's already past four."

Hearing this, Li Zhien looked at the time on the computer and said:
"But I'm not sleepy~"

"Then let's chat until dawn... Wait, buy a plane ticket!"

"Yes!"

The two hurriedly picked up their phones to check the flights.

"What time did you buy it?"

"Ten fifty in the morning."

"There are no tickets left. Do you want to go back first or change flights?"

Li Zhien thought for a while and said:

"Let's change the flight and go back together."

"Okay, then tell your aunt."

"Know it."

After a while, the unmarried couple, who had finished their chores, lay on the bed and chatted.

From the initial wedding scene decoration, the invitation of guests such as best men and bridesmaids, to the wedding room, the gender of the first, second and third children, to the planning of the children's education and future career direction.

We chatted until eight in the morning.

The excitement passed and sleepiness came over.

The two hugged each other and fell into a deep sleep.

Only slept for three hours.

The two were awakened by the alarm clock.

Start packing up and getting ready to go.

On the way, Jin Qixuan yawned and said:

"I think we should buy a private jet so we don't have to rush to catch a flight."

Beside her, Li Zhien, who was also infected, yawned, nodded, and said:

"Is it expensive?"

"It's not that expensive. The cheapest medium-sized one is only about 50 billion won."

"That's really not expensive. It's quite suitable for people like you who travel back and forth between China and abroad frequently. It saves time."
