In the video
In a white room, it was filled with silence and gloomy vibes. There was a woman who laid on a sick bed with her eyes tightly closed. Her deathly pale complexion didn't ruined her beautiful and delicate face.
On her bed side, a man with a haggard look and messy attire had a resolute look on his face. Although there was dark eye bag under his eyes and his shirt was stained by dried blood, his body still emitted a majestic and domineering aura.
His dark eyes stared at the unconscious woman worriedly. He held her hand softly as it might be broken if he put any more pressure on it. His mind was in chaos. As well as his heart.
" All are ready?" Although he was asking a question to someone, his eyes were still glued on the woman. He didn't even pay a glance at another individual presence in that room.
" Yes, master. I have start recording."
Silence. The room once again filled with silence but it only lasted for a few seconds before the messy man began to open his mouth.
" Hi, my name is Mu Zihan. What is your name?" With a lot of difficulty, Mu Zihan asked with a wistful voice. He really hope the woman in the bed would open her eyes and gave him an answer.
However, his question went unanswered. The woman still laid unmoved.
" Lu Ming said your name is Tang Ai Lin but you don't like to be called with your surname. Is that true? Then, will it be okay if I call you Ai Lin? My Ai Lin." Mu Zihan continued with his talk while caressing her slender fingers.
" What had you done to me? Why my heart is in so much pain while you're the one who obviously hurt? You must had done something to me, right? It must be that.
Ai Lin, when will you wake up? Won't you help me to cure my pain? Don't worry, I'll never scold you for doing this to me. So, please don't sleep for too long and quickly wake up.
Do you wanna know something? I think I have fallen in love with you at the first sight. That time when you look at me with your misty eyes, I thought my whole body was electrocuted. My heart stopped beating and I couldn't breath properly.
But when you fainted and I realized your body was soaked in blood, I felt like my soul was taken away. My heart felt like it had been stabbed with thousand knives. I couldn't see it but it hurts so much. That's when I first realized you're my other half. I was in pain when you're injured and I believe I'll be very much happy when I see your smile and laugh. So please… Wake up and show me your smiles and laughs."
At this time, Mu Zihan already soaked in tears. This was the first time he was crying in 28 years of his life, except when he was a baby of course.
Even Secretary Lu who was holding a smartphone in his hand was in a verge of crying. His hand shook a bit as he held in his tears.
" Ai Lin, after meeting you I realized I need you in my life. I can't lose you. You're my other half. You're that one puzzle which I lost all this while. You're that one piece of puzzle who will complete my life. So… Ai Lin, will you marry me? Stay with me and build a happy family together?"
Silence. Only the sound of his weeping could be heard.
Mu Zihan was still sobbing. He held her hand and kissed it gently. He hoped she would wake up and give him an answer. But he knew it was impossible. Thus, he continue held her hand and caressed her pale face.
" Ai Lin, why are you not answering me? Do you know what? People said silence implies consent. If you keep quiet, I'll take it as a yes from you. I'll count to three and if you don't say your rejection, I will assume you agree to marry me."
" One."
"…"
" Two."
"…"
"Three."
"…"
" So I'll take this as a 'yes' from you. Therefore from now on, we're officially fiancé and fiancée. You can't go back on your words and regretting your decision today. You'll have to marry me later." Mu ZIhan said tearfully with a bitter smile. Although he still didn't know much about Ai Lin, but he could feel he would receive a beating from her for his selfish assumption he made today. He shivered at that thought.
" I'm sorry I was unable to give you a ring for our engagement today but I promise I'll let you choose the ring later. You can choose any ring you want even it'll cost me my whole fortune. So please, wake up and talk to me. I can't bear to look at you like this.
Ai Lin, I promise you. Once you wake up, I'll give you everything you want. I'll find out the people who harmed you and kill them for you. I'll give you a grand wedding so the whole world will know we're husband and wife. I'll fulfill all your requests and pamper you with all I have. I'll…."
Just right then, the smartphone in Secretary Lu's hand let out a beep sound and the screen turned black.
