<h4>Chapter 297 Li Fei Made a Proposal</h4>


    Being afraid that Xia Xiaoluo was hungry, Ling Tianyi took her to eat something. However, facing so many delicious dishes on the table, Xia Xiaoluo had no appetite. She did not have any appetite to eat anything because she was heartbroken and frightened at this moment.


    Ling Tianyi sat beside Xia Xiaoluo, he seemed more haggard than before. Even though he had solved the problems of the Qiao family, he was still thinking about how to makepensations for Qiao Anna. After all, the unborn baby was his child. Meanwhile, he had tofort Xia Xiaoluo’s mood. What was more, he had to go on dealing with the affairs of the Qiao family. All of these made Ling Tianyi fatigued.


    Ling Tianyi picked up the vegetables for Xia Xiaoluo, but Xia Xiaoluo still kept silent, she did not say anything.


    “Xiaoluo, there is no use worrying about these things, because you can’t control them. As for Qiao Anna’s affairs, I will try my best to arrange her well. Don’t worry about it because I will marry you no matter what happens. I only love you and you are the only woman that I want to marry.” Ling Tianyi said. His voice sounded hoarse because he had been so exhausted these days.


    “When we were in H Province yesterday, you promised to marry me. We agreed to register for marriage. Xiaoluo, do you remember?” Ling Tianyi asked carefully, he was afraid that Xia Xiaoluo would regret it.


    Xia Xiaoluo bit her lips, keeping silent.


    “Don’t worry. I will arrange everything well, and then ask you to marry me. I guess that you will be reluctant to marry me even if I take you to the register office now.” Ling Tianyi sighed, and then he put some beef in Xia Xiaoluo’s bowl. “Eat something or you will be hungry. Don’t hurt yourself because of my mistake. I don’t deserve it.”


    “What about the baby? You are the father of the baby!” Xia Xiaoluo asked helplessly.


    “There are two solutions. First, if Qiao Anna and you agree, we will bring the baby up together and you will be the baby’s mother. Otherwise, the Qiao family will bring the baby up and I will give them much alimony. Even though the Qiao family isn’t short of money, I will give them economic support, or I will be responsible for the baby’s education and life. If they are in trouble, I will try my best to help them. What’s more, if the baby needs my help when he grows up, I will also support him if he needs my help.” Ling Tianyi said.


    “However, if you don’t marry Qiao Anna, the baby can’t live with his real parents. The baby is so poor because he could not have his father and mother at the same time!” Xia Xiaoluo sighed.


    “Are you willing to be the baby’s mother if I take him with me?” Ling Tianyi asked.


    “Sure! I will treat the baby well. But do the baby and Qiao Anna agree? I am not sure I can be a good mother, even though I am willing to be one. Also, you know that I’m always careless.” Xia Xiaoluo was helpless.


    “Xiaoluo, leave the baby’s affairs to me, I will think about it. I will arrange the baby well, and I won’t allow the baby or Qiao Anna to disturb our life.” Ling Tianyi said patiently.


    “Eat something first! If you don’t eat anything, I will be worried.” Ling Tianyi said and he wanted to feed Xia Xiaoluo.


    “I will eat by myself! Don’t feed me because I’m not a child.” Xia Xiaoluo took the chopsticks and began to eat. However, the delicious food seemed to lose the vor today.


    At the same time, Qiao Anna and Li Fei were sitting face to face in another high-end Chinese Restaurant.


    “Anna, I have to tell you again that I will protect you and the unborn baby. Now that Ling Tianyi is reluctant to take the responsibility, please give me a chance to be the baby’s father. Don’t worry! I will regard the baby as my own child after he was born! I will treat the baby as my own daughter or son, and I will protect him if someone dares to bully him!”


    “I have made some achievements in my study and business. You were born in such a rich and powerful family, and I can’tpare with you, my family background is just ordinary. But please give me a chance to prove my ability. I’m powerful enough to take care of you and the baby!”


    “Anna, your mood is bad now and you need someone to help you. So, let me take care of you and the baby, OK?”


    Li Fei expressed his attitude to Qiao Anna sincerely, and Qiao Anna was indeed moved. Li Fei was not hired by Ling Tianyi, but he was willing to do everything for her. Qiao Anna appreciated him very much from her heart, but she wouldn’t marry him because he didn’t love him.


    Seeing that Qiao Anna was thinking about something, Li Fei thought that she was hesitating, so he stood up suddenly and knelt on one knee. Then he took a delicate box out and opened it in front of Qiao Anna.


    “Anna, you looked like an angel sent by God when I met you for the first time. To be frank, I fell in love with you at first sight. But I couldn’t pursue you at that time because you were just a pupil and I was too young as well. But now, please marry me first, and then we can try to love each other gradually! Believe me that I will make you and the baby happy.”


    “Please marry me, OK?”


    After Li Fei said this, he was looking forward to Qiao Anna’s reply nervously.


    “Li Fei, I’m really moved, but I don’t love you. In my opinion, we just met each other for the first time several days ago, so we are not familiar with each other at all. What’s more, I have another man’s baby and it’s unfair to you. You are excellent, and you shall have many other better choices, I can’t be so selfish. It’s unfair for you to be the baby’s father when you get married to me!” Qiao Anna said with half-truths. She loved Ling Tianyi, so she did something evil and made some misunderstandings to him. However, she didn’t want to hurt or frame anybody else, especially Li Fei who treated her sincerely.


    What was more, Qiao Anna wanted to tell Li Fei that she was not forcing him to marry her. Therefore, what Li Fei would do in the future was none of her business.


    Being ignorant of what Qiao Anna was thinking about, Li Fei said with love, “Anna, I don’t mind the baby and I can regard him as my own child, because I love you! As long as you give birth to the baby, he is my child too. It’s my honor to be his father. I hope that you won’t mind my social status because you are so elegant. I have loved you secretly for many years, so please give me a chance! Marry me! It’s beneficial to the baby and you as well! I know that you don’t remember me and you don’t love me either. However, I believe that you will fall in love with me one day and we will be a happy family. Promise to marry me, OK?”


    “Li Fei, thank you for your proposal! Thank you very much!” Qiao Anna was really moved. Every woman would be moved when she met such a spoony man.


    “Don’t thank me. Please marry me, OK?” Li Fei begged Qiao Anna again.


    “OK! I will marry you!” Qiao Anna said. She seemed to make a decision to marry Li Fei. But she knew that she would let him down one day.


    “Really? Great!” Li Fei almost burst into tears out of excitement.


    Li Fei took the diamond ring out of the box, “I will help you to wear it!”


    “OK!” Qiao Anna stretched out her right hand.


    Li Fei helped Qiao Anna to wear the ring and kissed the back of her hand when he was kneeling on one knee, “Believe your choice today, I will never let you down!”


    “Stand up quickly!” Qiao Anna helped Li Fei to stand up.


    “I will be responsible for the baby from now on! What do you want to doter? Do you want to take the antenatal care, buy the baby clothes and toys or have a look at the wedding dress?”


    “No, don’t worry about these things, just have a good rest at home, and I will arrange everything well for you in advance. Let’s go together when you are willing to do so. Or just tell me what you want, and then I will buy the things and book the wedding dress on my own!”


    “No, I should send you home and visit your family members first. Then I will propose a marriage formally because I can only prepare for the marriage after bing your fiancé. We’d better hold our wedding as soon as possible.”


    Li Fei kept talking while Qiao Anna just kept listening to him silently. She thought that she would be delighted if Ling Tianyi could treat her like this. However, it was Li Fei, so Qiao Anna was just moved, but she was not happy.


    As Li Fei said, he sent Qiao Anna home, and introduced himself to Qiao Anna’s family members, proposing a marriage sincerely to the Qiao family.


    “Grandpa Qiao, I didn’t bring the wee gifts with me because I came here in a hurry today. However, please don’t worry, I will make it before evening today.” Li Fei apologized and said.


    Qiao Anna interrupted, “Li Fei wanted to buy a lot of gifts on the way here. But he was afraid that going shopping with him would make me tired. In addition, he was afraid that something terrible would happen to me if he bought the gifts and leave me alone. He nned toe here to visit us with gifts tomorrow, but he decided to talk about our marriage as soon as possible. We’d better save time because the baby is growing every day.”


    “Good!” Sir Qiao nodded and epted Qiao Anna’s exnations. In fact, what Qiao Anna said was true, Li Fei was thinking about these things on the way.


    “It doesn’t matter. The Qiao family is not short of the gifts. So never mind!” Sir Qiao said. He wanted an obedient live-in son-inw. However, he doubted Li Fei’s intention because Li Fei seemed to be smart and well-educated.


    “Thank you for your understanding, Grandpa Qiao. But I should prepare some gifts for you. I love Anna, so I can’t embarrass her. I will bring my wee gifts here before dawn today! What’s more, I will prepare for the bride-price, design our wedding roughly and propose a marriage with my parents in three days. But I’m wondering whether you, Uncle Qiao and Aunt Qiao agree to the marriage, I’m wondering if you are willing to let Anna marry me.” Li Fei said nervously.


    “Anna has worn your ring and it’s your freedom to choose your own lover. If Anna agrees, we are not against the marriage. But Let’s make the premise clear first, we have some requirements!” Sir Qiao said.


    “As long as you can allow me to marry Anna, I can promise any requirements!” Li Fei became excited. He was willing to ept all the requirements of the Qiao family.
