C344 Propose marriage

No matter how good a prince was, he was only suitable for admiration from afar. Rather than interacting with the feelings of others, why not diligently manage one's own feelings?

Marrying to the Prince was just a dream on her part. Since it was a dream, then she shouldn't ask him to appear in real life.

Ding Ding nodded his head, "Since that's the case, I will ask for your hand in marriage when you wake up."

Zhang Ruimei looked at Ding Ding in a daze.

She had thought that she would be rejected. She had already made up her mind. If she was rejected, she would definitely try her best to smile and preserve the last bit of her dignity.

She never thought that Ding Ding would agree to it.

Ding Ding saw her foolish expression, and warmth filled his eyes.

"However, if you don't think carefully, you can regret it at any time. As a death warrior, I cannot put too much energy into staying at home, and this will cause you to suffer a lot of grievances. When you are sick, you will not be able to find me; maybe, when you have your child, I will not be able to stay by your side.

Death soldiers were not the walking dead. They longed for a home even more than ordinary people. It was just that reason made them choose to stay alone to avoid worrying too much about themselves.

Zhang Ruimei's eyes were wet, she shook her head with all her might, "Whatever I do, I will not regret."

Ding Ding turned around and glanced at Du Jinse, then said to Zhang Ruimei: "It's getting late, wait for me for a bit, I'll go say a few words to Sixteen, then send you back home."

Zhang Ruimei nodded fiercely.

Not to mention a single word, she would agree to anything he said.

Ding Ding walked in front of Du Jinse. "I'll go send Miss Zhang back, and you should go back as soon as possible.

Du Jinse glanced at Ding Ding, "I never thought that you would actually agree to it.

With that, Du Jinse laughed at herself, then turned and left.

Du Jinse showed mercy, and did not say that he wanted to be a eunuch.

The corner of Ding Ding's mouth twitched. Originally, he had wanted to reject Zhang Ruimei, but marrying someone like them was not a pleasure, but a suffering. Zhang Ruimei's words had coincidentally struck the softest part of his heart, making him somewhat look forward to this kind of life.

If one day, he unfortunately left before her, she would still be able to live a strong life, and would even be able to smile at life. Wasn't this kind of woman the type of girl that he hoped for?

Until this moment, Ding Ding was shocked that he still liked the girl in front of him a little. Right after he was forced by the Duke to put on his mask and she came in.

"Your highness has just woken up. I think you must be hungry. I got the kitchen to prepare some porridge dishes. Your highness, take advantage of the heat and eat them."

Her voice was as melodious as a silver bell, and her entire person exuded a very soothing aura.

She was neither as pretentious as the women in the harem, nor as sharp as the princess.

It was inevitable that Chief Zhang would boast about himself. His daughter was well-to-do, and Zhang Ruimei did deserve these four words.

Seeing Du Jinse return, Ding Ding felt much more relaxed.

Walking to Zhang Ruimei's side, Ding Ding nodded, "Miss Zhang, I'll send you back."

Zhang Ruimei shyly looked at Ding Ding, "My name is Xiao Shi Rui Mei. According to father, when I was born, it was when the plum blossoms were in full bloom. My clan's people used the snow when the plum blossoms were in bloom as a good omen, so they gave me this name.

After Ding Ding heard this, he turned to look at Zhang Ruimei.

"Your name is very good, and it suits you very well. However, after your father agrees to our marriage, I will call you that."

Amongst the guards, Ding Ding was the most old-fashioned.

Hearing that, Zhang Ruimei did not get angry, but nodded in approval.

"That's good. I'll listen to you."

"What do you want me to do?"

Chief Zhang's voice suddenly sounded in front of them. When he finished speaking, he had already walked to the front of Ding Ding and the others.

Ding Ding bowed and saluted, "Greetings Sir Chief Soldier."

Chief Zhang glanced at Ding Ding sideways, "What did you say earlier about this soldier agreeing?"

Ding Ding's expression did not change, "I admire Miss Zhang, I want to wait for the Duke to wake up and propose marriage to the Chief Officer."

Chief Zhang could not help but look at Zhang Ruimei. He had heard everything clearly, but in disbelief, that was why he purposely took heavy steps and raised his voice to speak, and he could hear Ding Ding personally admitting that he was serious. It was just that, he had nearly lost his daughter in the day, so he had become more cautious now.

"Rumei, are you really going to marry a guard?"

Even though it was said that he was a seventh rank official in the Prime Minister's office, what was the use of that?

In the end, a guard was still a guard, and he was on a completely different level from a prince.

"Daddy, you understand daughter. As long as daughter believes it, even if you run into the south wall, you won't turn back."

Ding Ding glanced at Zhang Ruimei and walked to her side.

"Chief soldier, if Miss Zhang agrees, how can Ding Ding retreat?"

Chief Zhang looked at Ding Ding, "Although … "Ah, I only have one daughter."

He didn't want his daughter to marry a soldier from the border, because he felt that their lives were given to the country.

He would rather have his daughter marry far away than be widowed at such a young age.

This Ding Ding isn't bad, but as a guard, his life is in danger.

Chief Zhang sighed.

Forget it, forget it. If I don't keep my daughter here, I'll leave her here for revenge.

In the past, his daughter had never said what she wanted so clearly.

If only it was the prince, then he would definitely agree and not be as conflicted as he was now.

Zhang Ruimei was also a little sad. She looked at Ding Ding with difficulty, then looked at Chief Zhang.

When Ding Ding initially rejected her, it was just her pride that was hurt, and she felt a little sad. It wasn't because Ding Ding had to do with her falling into the river, but due to everything that had happened afterwards, she was caught off guard. At this moment, she had already confirmed her feelings, but when she thought about her father's only daughter, she actually wanted to marry into the capital.

"If daddy doesn't agree, then I …" Zhang Ruimei clenched her teeth, at worst, she would never get married again.

Seeing Zhang Ruimei's expression, Chief Zhang knew she wanted to say something. He suddenly laughed out loud and interrupted his daughter's words.

"Stinking brat, you just took my daughter away like that. I'll wait for your injuries to heal, then you can accompany this old man in exercising his muscles and bones."

He wanted to help his daughter check. The minimum requirement was that his son-in-law should have a robust body. Although he was the prince's bodyguard, his body would not be that bad.

The most important thing was that his hands were itchy.

"It's better to obey than to be respectful." Ding Ding did not decline.

"In that case, I'll just wait for the prince to come forward and propose."

He still had to take this step. When he thought about how his master was going to be a matchmaker, Chief Zhang's emotions became complicated.

"Let's go, we won't hold them up any longer."
