Bunny heard the sound and curiously looked over - Emerson, tall and straight, stood there. There was a stick microphone. Among the rays of candles, his face with straight eyebrows and sparkling eyes looked so gorgeous.
He raised his hand and held the microphone, his delicate lips opening. "You asked how deep I feel for you, and how much I love you. I won't ever change. We will be the same. The moon represents my heart."
It was the song: The Moon Represents My Heart.
Emerson sang its version in English.
In glistening candlelight, Bunny looked attentively at him with her watery eyes, under the stage looked at him with her wet eyes, lost in his song.
For the moment, Emerson felt a surge of emotion.
He could not help thinking that the trick Adam taught him really worked!
Adam especially picked up this song, "The Moon represents My Heart," for him, promising that it was most suitable for the romantic atmosphere.
As Emerson finished humming the last line, he stepped off the stage and walked towards her in high spirits.
Just as he approached the table, he heard her muttering, "This song is so out of date.
We young people prefer the song: Confession Balloon!" Emerson was struck dumb.
He song this old song very well, his voice deep and sonorous.
Especially when he gently held the microphone singing affectionately, he oozed the charm of a mature man, which was far attractive than that of those young men!
Bunny praised him sincerely, "Emerson, you sing very well."
Emerson, hearing this, felt a little comforted. He hitned the manager of the restaurant.
Then, a waiter served a piece of exquisitely designed dessert: Tiramisu, which was placed on a white porcelain plate.
Usually, desserts were served at the end of a meal.
However, Bunny was so hungry that she did not pay attention to such a small change. As soon as she saw the Tiramisu, she dug out a large piece of it with a fork
Then, she looked a little dazed.
A crisp sound was heard.
The fork stopped before something hard -she dug out a diamond ring.
Emerson took it out carefully and wiped it clean with the napkin.
Then, he knelt down on one knee before her.
Buuny eyes suddenly brimmed with tears.
Tears blurred her vision.
Emerson fixed his eyes on her. As he saw tears welling up in her misty eyes, his throat tightened, and he said in a husky voice, "Bunny, please marry me!"
He started preparing for the proposal a long time ago.
But then, the misunderstanding between them delayed it. Thankfully, it was not too late now.
Before Bunny's hot tears fell, she suddenly stood up.
Emerson saw it, thinking that she was about to turn and run, so he quickly held her in his arms.
Bunny tried to push him away, but at the thought of the belly in her belly, she that she hit his chest with her small fist instead. "You propose to me only because you want to coax me into giving birth to the baby! But I don't want to be a substitute!"
While saying this, she burst out crying.
Her tears flooded out.
She thought Emerson had Anthea in his heart the whole time. Thus, she was reluctant to be a substitute to fill the emptiness and loneliness in his heart because of the absence of Anthea.
Emerson, after figuring out what was in her mind, did not know whether to laugh or cry.
