Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Atmosphere

Hovercars zipped through the sky, others streaking past them like beams of light. The heavens were a brilliant, dusky gold.

The dusky sun was setting on the distant horizon, casting fragmented light through the window. Beneath the sunset stood thousands of futuristic skyscrapers, jutting up from the ground.

Jiang Zheyu placed her palm on the window, gazing at the scenery outside.

She and Zexun were in a Hovercar, on their way to the Observatory Tower.

Her security detail followed behind in another Hovercar.

"Miss Jiang, do you like sunsets?" Zexun, who was sitting across from her, also pressed his palm against the window on his side. He looked at her, his shimmering red eyes seemingly dyed a warm orange by the setting sun’s afterglow, making them appear both gorgeous and warm.

Jiang Zheyu turned to look at him, her gaze falling into the man’s beautiful, passionate, and gentle red-orange eyes.

Both of their palms were pressed against the glass. It seemed that if either of them moved just slightly, their fingers would gently touch.

They sat facing each other, their faces incredibly close. The sunset’s afterglow streamed through the window, bathing their features in a warm hue. From time to time, a passing Hovercar would streak by, sending silvery lines of light and shadow dancing across his stunningly beautiful face.

Jiang Zheyu had to admit that in this moment, Zexun wasn’t just gorgeous—the fragmented red-orange light of the atmosphere made him so ethereally beautiful he hardly seemed real.

But Jiang Zheyu didn’t know that in Zexun’s eyes, she was just as breathtakingly beautiful. As the fragmented red-orange light shone in, her tea-colored eyes gazed at him quietly, as if he were the only person in the world she could see.

Streaks of light swept across the young woman’s picturesque features and lovely, light pink lips, faintly revealing the delicate down on her face.

On the window, a large, slender hand with well-defined knuckles began to slowly, tentatively creep toward her delicate, fair one. His finger brushed against hers, a careful touch filled with a hesitant yet irrepressible affection, spreading slowly like a tentative exploration of love.

But the moment his finger touched hers, the slender hand quickly pulled away.

After pulling her hand back, Jiang Zheyu’s tea-colored eyes shimmered. "I quite like all kinds of beautiful scenery."

"Then am I a one-of-a-kind scenery in Miss Jiang’s eyes?" This time, Zexun didn’t politely retreat after her withdrawal. Instead, he pressed forward, gentle and slow.

His stunning face held a faint smile as he leaned slightly toward Jiang Zheyu. He was no longer holding back with polite propriety, his pursuit becoming more gentle and direct.

Jiang Zheyu watched Zexun get closer and closer, his gentle and passionate eyes now tinged with a darker shade of desire. To her surprise, her own heart began to beat faster and faster.

"Judge Ze is naturally handsome," Jiang Zheyu said with a small smile, though her palms secretly clenched in nervousness.

"Then this one-of-a-kind scenery can be yours, and yours alone." Zexun’s face was very close to hers, but he stopped. He spoke softly, slowly. "Do you want it?"

’This is no different from a confession.’

Jiang Zheyu swallowed nervously, her cheeks flushing slightly as she lowered her gaze. She was actually reflecting on herself. ’How have I become so fickle? It seems like ever since I came to terms with this whole polyandry setup, I’ve just become more and more of a player. I can’t say no to such a handsome man... Sob...’

"Esteemed female and Judge Ze, we have arrived at the Observatory Tower," a voice called from outside.

"We should get out," Jiang Zheyu said, feeling as if she had been rescued.

She hurriedly turned and opened the door to get out.

Zexun touched his neck, which was hot and flushed from the blood rushing to his head.

His long lashes lowered, fluttering slightly.

’My heart is pounding too, but I’m probably the only one who can hear it.’

Zexun pressed a hand to his excitedly thumping heart before hurrying out of the car to catch up with Jiang Zheyu.

The evening wind blew past, but it seemed unable to extinguish that restless, clamoring sound.

The wind slightly tousled his jet-black hair.

Strands of black hair brushed across his smooth forehead. The truth was, Zexun was acting this way because he knew that Miss Jiang had already accepted Feng Qi’s Beast Mate matching application.

’A man like that, with no sense of romance or surprise, actually managed to win over Miss Jiang.’

He was indeed a bit jealous, and he couldn’t wait any longer.

Tonight could be the day of his doom, or it could be the day his Love God descended.

「On top of the Observatory Tower.」

When Jiang Zheyu walked up, she found the entire rooftop of the Observatory Tower decorated with pink roses. A soft, plush blanket covered the floor, scattered with pink petals. A grand piano sat to one side, next to a telescope for stargazing.

Seeing this, she suddenly realized this probably wasn’t going to be an ordinary stargazing session.

Jiang Zheyu couldn’t shake the feeling that this looked a lot like a marriage proposal.

She had already stepped onto the rooftop, but now she froze in place.

Zexun came up from behind her, took her hand, and led her forward.

Zexun glanced at her, his eyes curving into a smile. "The meteor shower won’t be here for a little while. Let’s sit here for a bit."

He led Jiang Zheyu to a soft chair, then walked over to the piano himself. He tilted his head slightly to look at her, his features gentle as water, his red eyes burning with passion. "I’ve played many instruments since I was a child. If Miss Jiang doesn’t mind, while we wait for the meteors, I’d like to play a piece for you."

"Okay." Jiang Zheyu sat down, feeling quite nervous.

’Zexun went to so much trouble with these arrangements. It’s really easy to guess what’s going to happen next.’

’Should I say yes?’

A light, ethereal melody flowed from Zexun’s fingertips.

Jiang Zheyu’s mood gradually began to relax as she watched Zexun, his gaze lowered, earnestly playing the piano.

The Observatory Tower was very, very high. The wind was a bit chilly, and the night sky was filled with stars.

The man played the piano against a backdrop of the starry sky, the wind gently tousling his black hair.

Jiang Zheyu had to admit it. ’I’m hooked again.’

And so, in that moment, Jiang Zheyu decided to accept Zexun’s pursuit.

’I’ll accept him in a little bit.’

Zexun was probably the person who had given her the most romance and sense of occasion.

He was clearly very dedicated in his pursuit of her, his affection seeping in gently and quietly, like a silent rain.

Jiang Zheyu listened to the beautiful piano music and watched the handsome man.

She felt very content, her heart filled with a peaceful joy.

Just as the piece ended, the sky began to fill with a meteor shower.

"Mr. Ze, the meteors are here! Are you going to make a wish?" Jiang Zheyu walked to the piano and pulled him up, a faint smile on her face as she looked at him. "I hear wishes made under a meteor shower always come true."

Zexun gazed down at the young woman’s brilliant smile, her eyes sparkling.

It was as if she had seen through his plan long ago.
