Behind your Mask is a Beautiful Smile 202 The Fifteen Minutes...

She closed her eyes as instructed, but her fingers were rubbing the emptiness on her engagement finger, anticipating for the ring. "Stupid Bin Guan said he would come back in fifteen minutes, but I don't even see his shadow."

"Who did you call stupid?" Bin Guan's amused voice rung her ears and her eyes immediately blinked open. She was going to say something back to him, but her mouth was left open in an O shape.

In front of her was a carpet filled of flower petals with nurses holding one rose on either side of the carpet. The nurses slowly walked towards her direction and one by one handed her the rose in their hands as a blessing for her. Chen Mu waved his hand from the other side with the brightest smile on his face.

'Wow... I didn't notice it earlier, but Doctor Chen Mu is quite handsome in a regular suit....' Her attention was quickly directed to the young man holding the last rose in his hand after all the nurses had handed her theirs.

Bin Guan was mouthing something all along, but since he was saying it silently, Wei Na couldn't figure out what he was saying. After the last nurse had passed the rose to her, Bin Guan walked until he was at a five step range from her.

His smile revealed his white teeth and lovely cheek dimples. His eyes showed sincerity and a kind of affection that made her eyes turn pink. His lips were rosy, probably from the raspberry lip balm that Chen Mu always carried with him, but it made them look extremely delicious.

"Wei Na, when you were in a coma, I swore to myself that if you wake up, I will pamper and fulfill your requests as long as it's something I could do. I was planning on giving you the most romantic proposal and worried about how well things would go. Obviously, this was not carefully planned, but during the time that you were unconscious, I realized something very important." He took a deep breath.

"No matter how perfect or how satisfied I would have been with the planned proposal, everything would be meaningless without you being there. Though the first proposal didn't really count as one since I kind of forced the ring onto your finger, but I did mean every word I said. You are the only woman I wish to spend my lifetime with. I can't imagine anyone other than you, holding my hand, sleeping with me, listening to my rants, throwing pillows at my face, and nagging me every day."

The smile on his face grew wider, and his eyes were filled with love and possession, "I am extremely, extremely grateful that I get the chance to tell you all of this because I know there aren't many second chances in life. Miracles are easier said than done. Many people don't realize that life is too short and any second, their loved ones could be taken away in a whoosh. That is how fragile life is."

"I promise you that I will take advantage of this second chance that I've received from probably saving the world during my last life or something. I will love you wholeheartedly and dote on you endlessly. When I saw you lying on that bed, I missed everything about you. As long as this heart is still beating, I will love, cherish, and protect you. Shen Wei Na, will you marry me?"

He knelt down on one knee, bringing the range between them to one step apart as the rose he was holding extended towards her. She was already in tears and moved by his confession, even though it was simple. Though her vision was blocked by the mist in her eyes, she could still see the platinum ring in front of her. He placed the ring into the center of the rose that he was holding.

She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down and replied, "Yes!" with her emotional voice. He already knew that she would say yes, so he walked closer to her, knelt down, and placed the ring on her engagement finger. This time it counted as official.

Chen Mu clapped his hands while heightening up the excitement, "Woooooooooo let's give a round of applause to our engaged couple and have them kiss each other for a nice five minutes!" His shout out made nurses cheer the couple on with the kiss.

Although a bit embarrassed, Wei Na quickly slipped his engagement ring on his finger and pulled him in for a deep kiss. The kiss lasted for two minutes and fifty seconds as she ran out of breath midway. Chen Mu congratulated them, "Congratulations to my favoriteee feisty couple! Now, you'll owe us audiences a ten minute kiss during your wedding~"

"Do you like the proposal? My queen." He fixed strands of her hair while meeting her lovely eyes.

"Of course!! Look at all these roses!! I love them~" She sniffed the pile of roses on her lap with a satisfying smile.

He leaned closer to her ears, "Do you know what's the meaning behind the roses?"

"Hmm? Romance and love?" That was her understanding of the meaning behind red roses.

"Here, plus this rose in my hand, there is a total of 99 roses. It translates to I will love you forever and spend my whole lifetime with you. I'm looking forward to our future together, my soon-to-be Mrs. Bin." His handsome smile captivated her heart like cupids shooting endless arrows to her heart.

She couldn't control herself even though there was still a crowd surrounding them. Her lips smacked into his, enjoying the soft warmth of his sweet raspberry scented lip, "Sexy lips. I couldn't help myself but to give it another taste, my soon-to-be hubby."

He whispered, "You're so lucky that you are a patient and recovering right now. Also lucky for all these people to still be present. If this was our apartment... You will not be leaving our bed for ages." A devilish grin appeared on his glowing skin.

"Oh? I'll like to see how you'll make me stay obediently in bed with you then," she giggled.

Chen Mu didn't want to break their flirtatious talk, but had to remind them that they were not in her private room, "Ahem, I know you love birds are enjoying your own time, but don't forget that we could still see. We haven't eaten our dinner yet.

Wei Na teased, "Please Doctor Chen Mu or well, Uncle Chen Mu~~ You and auntie are far worse than us okay? Remember that- mmmphhh" Chen Mu ran over to cover her mouth as he waved the crowd away.

"Shhh! Let's talk about something else, shall we?~" Chen Mu released her mouth and patted her on the shoulders.

The trio burst out in laughter and Chen Mu took many many many pictures of them. By the time everyone woke up the next day, their phones were bombarded with loads of pictures, messages, and endless excitement about the couple's official engagement. In one of the pictures, the couple was looking into the camera, with their hands interlocked, highlighting the platinum rings between them. Their blissful smile was enough to make people believe that they were already married.
