He took one look at her face and leaned down to plant a kiss on her forehead. There was a subtle scent coming from her that stimulated his senses. He just gave her a glance until she finally fell asleep and woke up.

It was already one o’clock in the morning. Sherry opened her eyes. Her watery eyes were as fresh as a clear spring, with beautiful ripples that floated, and her thick eyelashes were as delicate as the feathers of a butterfly.

As she breathed, her eyelashes trembled gently. When she opened her eyes, she met his handsome face and deep-set eyes. He was still giving her an affectionate look.

She seemed startled, and then shyness colored her cheeks. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”

“I was looking at you!” he whispered.

“Why are you looking at me?” she asked shyly.

“Aren’t you tired?” Sherry felt even more embarrassed after the question. She had been ‘working out’ hard all day, how could she not be tired? But how could she be so fit and energetic? “I was afraid you’d disappeared!” His handsome face moved closer to hers and his thin lips curved into a slightly wistful smile.

The tip of his nose was almost close to Sherry’s. The exhalation between them was audible, and his hot breath blew against Sherry’s small face.

“I’m afraid happiness seems like a dream!”

A shiver ran through Sherry’s heart. She lost it and her heart ached. Then she caught his face and he said, “Don’t make a scene. As long as you don’t change your mind, happiness will never come. Hurry up and get up. Aren’t you hungry?”

“Hungry!” She said. His handsome face smelled of burning love and her heart slowly warmed. She was in a trance and became even more shy. “Get up, stop it!”

“Honey, let’s get married!” he said. His eyes were burning, but he was very serious. Then he said it again, “Let’s get married!”.

She froze and gave him a look in his eyes, Was he proposing marriage? He didn’t seem ready for anything, did he? Shouldn’t there be flowers, a ring, and lots of things to do with love? Was he just going to say a few words and trick her into marriage? He blinked and shook his head again in disbelief.

It turned out that she was vulgar enough to think of such things too! Once he saw her shake her head, he became nervous and even more insecure, “Don’t you want to marry me?”

Sherry said nothing, but in her heart she knew there was no way she could refuse. For she was very much in love with him, the father of her children. This dominant, loving, caring, warm, responsible man, she couldn’t find a reason to turn him down. But there was nothing romantic about the way he proposed!

Well, even if she didn’t want romance, she wanted to be in love like all women. She had taken up with him before she was in love, and she always felt a little aggrieved and regretful.

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, William was anxious. “Are you beginning to hate me?” He looked so unsure as he asked, trembling with a hint of worry, and she suddenly smiled. Because he was so cute.

“You idiot!” She said.

“What?” he raised an eyebrow.

“You have nothing to give me, and you want me to marry you? Mr. Rowland, isn’t that too good for you?” He looked at her and his smile widened. He was startled and still a little lethargic.

“Don’t you want to marry me?”

“No!” She shook her head.

“Then what?” He began to hope in his heart, but with a tinge of worry.

“Mr. Rowland, have you ever seen anyone propose like that? Shouldn’t you try yourself? No flowers, no ring, no candlelight dinner, no romantic declaration of love, And you ask me to marry you? Just thinking of all the things you’ve done to cheat on me before makes me feel so aggrieved…” She said with a smile, but seeing the expression on his face change a little, she found it even more adorable.

“Well, is it possible that with this you agree?” He asked eagerly.

She replied deliberately, “Not necessarily!”

“Honey!” He exclaimed and pouted. “What will it take for you to marry me?”

“William, you haven’t pursued me yet! I haven’t even been in love. I don’t want to marry you just like that!” she said with a smirk. “And my father and brother wouldn’t approve either!” At the mention of Clark, William’s face froze, and he suddenly became solemn.

“Sherry, I’ll make sure you’re happy! But whatever happens, you mustn’t hate me!”

“That’s not necessarily true. I’m not going to promise you anything. In case you do anything out of the ordinary with my promise, I think I’ll hate you.” She said this deliberately.

What she meant was simply that he could not cheat on her in the future. But his face instantly darkened and he suddenly became sad. Her heart trembled with worry.

But he said, “I won’t do anything out of the ordinary. I promise to love only you. For the rest of my life, I will love only you. Even if I grow old, lose my teeth, we get wrinkles on our faces, you are no longer beautiful, I am no longer handsome, I will still love only you! I will wake up every morning and kiss you good morning and good night before I go to bed, I promise to talk to you every day, to listen to every word you say, to do everything you tell me to do! I won’t lose my temper with you or yell at you. I will be the first to send you my chest to lean on when you cry…” He told her with great affection.

She was also touched by him, and in fact her eyes also grew moist.

“I won’t let you shed any more tears, I will always make you smile and make you feel that the man you have chosen is the best for you in this world! Even if I have many flaws, I will work hard to change them! Please give me a chance, and let’s hold hands for the rest of our lives, OK? Don’t hate me and don’t leave me.” She couldn’t hold back the tears.

Her eyelashes fluttered like a fan, hanging with teardrops, as she was so moved…so much so that she said, “Whatever happens, I will never hate you. I never will. I’m going to live my life with you once and for all. But Mr. Rowland, you’ll be in love with me! I’ve never been in love!”

…

“In love? Aren’t we in love?” she asked lazily.

“Are we? Why don’t I feel it?” She asked.

Her smiling, tear-stained face was close, and she was giving him an intense look. William’s heart suddenly went silent at that moment.

“Darling, we’ll be in love for the next fifty years! I promise to spoil you every day, like a loving couple, for the rest of our lives.”

She thought for a moment. “Am I going to regret your deep love if I don’t say yes?”

“Of course! Marry me! I’m sorry I made you cry again!” With that, she used her long fingers to wipe away the tears that ran down the corners of her eyes because she was so moved.

“Honey, lean on my chest!” She pushed him and wiped away the tears, “I’m not crying, I’m just a little moved! But I don’t know if what you say is true.”

“It’s all true, I promise I can do it all!” He said.

Sherry thought about it again, however, and her big eyes rolled. She had been repressed for too many years and now it seemed to come alive. She kept looking at him, put on her nightgown, got out of bed, ran to the nightstand and opened the drawer, took out the fox mask and put it on. William was puzzled. Once he saw the mask, he was a little embarrassed.

“Honey, I made a mistake! I shouldn’t have teased you before with the mask on. But I couldn’t help it at the time. Apart from the first time when I couldn’t do anything, after that I really couldn’t help it…”

“Mr. Rowland, I’m going to wear this mask and marry you. If you agree, I will marry you. If you don’t agree, I’ll wait until I’m in the mood to say yes!” Sherry’s eyes sparkled. For the first time, she felt so relaxed and felt really happy to be pampered. She had had a very, very hard time all these years! Her original nature had been overcome by the harsh realities of life. But then she felt that the world was fair. All human life was fair. The world gave him trials and thorns to experience, it also gave him happiness. And because of the harshness of life, one was lucky to get happiness!

She didn’t want to be so bad. She just wanted to be spoiled and she wanted him to spoil her all the time. She didn’t dare say that for the rest of her life, but at least at that moment, she wanted him to spoil her! William was surprised and dismayed at the same time. He was surprised that she had agreed to marry him, and dismayed that she had to wear this mask? This?

As he took one look at the mask, he realized how treacherous his wife was. And the fox mask was so ironic that he finally knew what it was like to shoot himself in the foot!

“Let’s talk about it, shall we?” His tone was humble.

He merely looked at her warily, and the more he looked at her, the guiltier he felt. For that mask pointed out how vile and hateful he had once been. How could he even think of making love to her wearing a mask, phew! He was truly speechless at his own behavior….

After taking another look at the mask, he quickly lowered his head and dared not look away. The mask made him feel despicable and unscrupulous at all times. It would be a ‘stain’ that would remain unspeakable for the rest of his life. Oops…

He was really wrong!

“Yes! You tell me! Discuss what?” she folded her arms and stood ten feet away from him.

She still wore her mask and her eyes curved into a fox-like smile.

“You don’t look good in a wedding dress with this mask on. You only get married once in a lifetime. Let’s not wear this, okay?” He tried to convince her.

But she shook her head. “I remember just now, ten minutes ago, a very affectionate man confessed to me that he would carry out anything I said. I didn’t ask him to do anything, just that one thing, but that man really said no! We’re not married yet, so if we are, it will be even more disobedient! Forget it, let’s not get married! No wonder they say it’s better to believe in ghosts than this mi4rda man’s mouth!”

“Honey…,” William’s forehead had broken out in a cold sweat. He was beginning to gape. Yes, he had said he would listen to anything she said in the future, but this? He came up with this great idea and said, “Honey, people will think I married a slut! Slut is not a nice word, why don’t you stop being a slut?”

“Okay! I think it’s okay. I’d like to be a slut. Sluts are so pretty, and it’s not hard work. I love being a slut.” She said very cheerfully.

And doubled over with laughter at William’s embarrassed look. “Honey, this is really bad! People call sluts sluts sluts and say they’re dirty!” He tried to convince her. “I… I’m not disobeying you, it’s not like I don’t listen to you! I…”
