"Why do I feel that the Eiffel Tower is like an ordinary antenna tower, there is nothing to see." The boy's tone was obviously disappointed.

"It looks very ordinary now, but it will be different when the lights turn on."

Xu Xizhou nodded, then looked down at the ducks paddling in the lake.

"How about we feed the ducks too?"

"Okay, I'll go buy biscuits."

Xu Xizhou hummed softly. He held his cheeks with both hands, and looked at a sky blue cruise ship on the lake. It seemed that a party was being held on it. There were lanterns and balloons hanging everywhere, and a band was playing.

At this time, Zhuang Jingchun bought the biscuits and came back.

With a nervous expression on his face, he handed Xu Xizhou the unwrapped biscuit box.

"Come and feed."

Xu Xizhou nodded and pulled out the box a little bit. Just as he threw the biscuits down, a few ducks paddling in the distance also swam over and quickly grabbed them all.

"I can't tell. Ducks also like to eat biscuits." Xu Xizhou smiled, took out all the boxes, and when he reached out to touch them, he found that the touch was a bit strange.

He snorted in surprise, looked down, and found that there were no biscuits in the last box, but a small box of dark blue flannel.

Zhuang Jingchun's heart had never beat so fast before, his Adam's apple slid twice with difficulty, staring at Xu Xizhou's reaction without blinking.

With a strange look on Xu Xizhou's face, he opened the small box and saw the silver ring inside.

It was a ring with a unique pattern, with three letters xxz engraved on the inside, exuding a dazzling light.

The Eiffel Tower not far away just lit up at this moment, Zhuang Jingchun stared at him deeply, the bright lights reflected in the green eyes.

"Xiaozhou, marry me."

Chapter 107 Going both ways

Xu Xizhou was holding the ring box in his hand, as if fireworks exploded in his mind in an instant, a huge surprise and confusion overwhelmed him.

His mind was blank for several seconds, his lips moved, and it took him a long time to find his own voice.

"I have not decided yet."

Zhuang Jingchun's bright eyes dimmed for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his expression.

"It's okay, I know it's too sudden for you, you're still young, and we've only been together for half a year."

Xu Xizhou scratched his hair, and reluctantly returned the ring to the man.

"Actually, it's not these problems. I'm just not mentally prepared, Austin, can I store this with you first?"

"of course can."

Zhuang Jingchun pursed her lips, her eyes flashed with deep loneliness, and put the ring back in her pocket.

On the way back, Zhuang Jingchun seemed a little silent. His eyes drooped slightly, his slender figure slowly walked along the river bank, and he didn't even know when Xu Xizhou fell behind him.

Xu Xizhou looked at his back and felt a pain in his heart, he couldn't help chasing after him and held his hand.

"Austin, are you not happy?"

Zhuang Jingchun glanced at the hands that the two of them were shaking, and forced a smile.

"no."

He also knows that he wants too much. Xiaozhou is now his boyfriend, and the relationship between the two is so stable. Marriage is a matter of time. There is no need for him to be rejected because of a marriage proposal.

There must be something he did not do well enough that Xiaozhou hesitated and hesitated.

"Austin, listen to me, it's really not your problem, it's my own fault, I still need time to think about it, but I'll definitely give you an answer, okay?"

Xu Xizhou looked at him unblinkingly with a pair of clean and transparent black eyes.

When Zhuang Jingchun met his gaze, the bottom of his heart seemed to collapse in an instant, and a sense of guilt suddenly appeared in his chest.

How could he be so selfish, but his proposal was rejected, and he looked like he was hit hard. Xiaozhou obviously did nothing wrong, but he was affected by his negative emotions.

He rejected his marriage proposal, just because he didn't think about it for a while, it didn't mean he didn't love him.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Jingchun felt a lot more relieved. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a very shallow smile, and reached out to touch Xu Xizhou's head.

"I know. I just did it wrong, sorry."

Xu Xizhou also laughed, he grabbed Zhuang Jingchun's hand tightly, "It will be summer break after the race in Canada. Let's go back to China then. I want to go back to Ren's house."

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

In the first half of the season, there were only two back-to-back races left in Azerbaijan and Canada. Xu Xizhou did not have much time to rest. After returning from Paris, he quickly devoted himself to high-intensity training.

He ran the Baku circuit once last year and is no stranger to it. Although he did not get on the podium this time, he also achieved a good fourth place. In the Canadian Grand Prix, due to a sudden failure of the car, he failed to finish the race and left the paddock with a little regret.

In order to accompany him back to China for the mid-year vacation, this time Zhuang Jingchun did not rest for half a month. The two met at the airport, and Xu Xizhou immediately noticed the dark circles on his face.

Throwing into the man's arms, Xu Xizhou felt distressed in his eyes, and reached out to touch his eyes.

"Is it so tiring from work? Why don't you relax?"

"Fortunately, it's because some work has been accumulated before, and there are more meetings at the end of the year."

Zhuang Jingchun kissed the corner of his mouth, put one hand around his waist, felt the smooth waistline under the palm of his hand, and suddenly frowned slightly.

Why does he feel that he hasn't seen him for half a month, Xu Xizhou seems to have lost weight, and his waistline has narrowed a bit.

At the last stand in Canada, he knew that Xu Xizhou had withdrawn from the race due to an accident. Such accidents are not uncommon in the paddock. But he was still worried that it would affect Xu Xizhou's state.

"Is it because of the previous race in Canada..."

"You think I'm too fragile. Car breakdowns are inevitable. I'm not that hard to figure out."
