Chapter 492: 313 Elder brother successfully proposed, still an unofficial wild man (3 more updates)_3 "I..." Shen Zhixian noticed his nervousness, and unexpectedly thought of teasing him, “I...” Jiang Yanting frowned; she must be doing this on purpose. Was she trying to kill him? "I agree..." Before the last word could fully drop, Jiang Yanting suddenly stood up, grabbed her, and pulled her into his embrace.
He hadn't controlled his strength, and Shen Zhixian almost crashed into him, her head hitting the tie clip... The pain nearly brought her to tears and made her inhale sharply.
She had just agreed to his proposal, and this man seemed like he wanted to kill her? "I..." Jiang Yanting, hearing the sound and realizing something was amiss, let her go, bent over to be eye-level with her. Her eyes were slightly red, looking a bit wronged, which softened his heart, "Sorry, I think I got too excited." "This..." Shen Zhixian stretched out her hand.
Jiang Yanting finally cback to his senses, took the ring from the box, and slid it onto her finger.
The diamond ring was custom-made by the Yan Family, a jewelry maker. It slid onto her ring finger smoothly, fitting perfectly.
Shen Zhixian looked down at the diamond ring, "This ring, also... Hmm-" Just as everyone was about to go down and offer their blessings, the couple contributed a kissing scene to the audience. Thankfully, the lighting was dim; otherwise, the scene might have made even grown men blush.
Half an hour later, the news of Jiang Yanting's proposal spread, and although the video was just over a minute long, it thrilled the onlookers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince the press conference, the two of them had rarely appeared together, and seven doubted the authenticity of their relationship. Ssaid that having a child might not imply real feelings; otherwise, why hadn't they seen the two make a public appearance? Then, someone from a villa area said they had seen the two cand go together; maybe they were living together.
But the Jiang Family, the Xie Family, had kept quiet, making it hard not to wonder if the two were really together or just putting on a show.
And now, as a video of the proposal inside leaked, everyone online turned into lemon spirits.
"When they're not stirring things up, it's all calm. But when they do, the waves ccrashing in, loud and clear " "I'm in awe; looking at the frame, isn't that diamond ring a bit too big?" "Who says the second young master Jiang isn't romantic? I think this man knows his stuff.” This kind of proposal scene, honestly, is quite cliché, but it's timeless for a reason.
** Meanwhile, inside the private room Shen Zhixian only found out later that Jiang Yanting had called so many people over, many of whom were her friends and colleagues, who'd also been inexplicably summoned.
"You carried out a proposal using Huo's name?" Qi Zeyan was astonished.
Jiang Yanting chuckled lightly, "If I had used my nto gather everyone, you'd have guessed what I was up to as soon as you met, and speople can't keep a secret... it might have leaked." As he finished speaking, everyone's gaze shifted to Qi Zeyan.
"Con, why is everyone looking at me? I can keep a secret!" Qi Zeyan said, feeling unfairly judged like he was skind of gossip. He stood up, raising his glass to Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian, "Congratulations. I hope you two grow old together." "Thank you." Shen Zhixian held her glass, her head feeling a bit muddled, sipped the drink, and licked her now slightly dry lips.
Everything that had just happened seemed like a dream, but the ring on her finger was indeed real. "Big brother, sister-in-law..." Jiang Jinsang couldn't drink alcohol, so he made do with tea.
"Little aunt, uncle." Xie Tongtong was drinking orange juice, "Congratulations." Only Xie Duo sat to one side, completely dumbfounded.
What the heck! He had thought the Huo Family had invited him for something and was nervously anxious. It turned out, after all the fuss, that someone had orchestrated the proposal, claiming that having family on hand would make it seem more serious and sincere.
Xie Duo could only hold his glass, solemnly offering his blessings for a harmonious marriage...
Seriously, his grandmother's leg! "Yanting, now that you've proposed, when are you two planning to hold the wedding?" Jiang Yanting looked at Shen Zhixian, "It depends on her." Shen Zhixian blushed, keeping her head down, saying little. Jiang Yanting took her silence for shyness.
Happy with the day's events, everyone made jokes and even tried to coax the couple into talking about their love story, but someone's cold look thwarted those attempts.
** As everyone went their separate ways, perhaps infected with joy, they all seemed in good spirits.
Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian were on their way to the Fan Family to pick up the children when Shen Zhixian received several phone calls, mostly from the Xie Family, or friends calling to send their wishes. Seeing her in good spirits, Jiang Yanting casually mentioned, "Xianxian, when you're free, let's find tto register for our marriage and start planning the wedding." Jiang Jinsang, who had been recuperating at home, was either reading, playing puzzles, or checking out design books. He was even sketching his own design plans.
If he had no partner, that would be one thing, but with Shen Zhixian by his side, he naturally didn't want to fall behind in the wedding arrangements.
"I'm afraid I can't register the marriage with you." After Shen Zhixian said this, Jiang Yanting's? fingers tensed suddenly, turning the steering wheel sharply, and the car stopped by the roadside in a quick brake. "What do you mean by that?” She agreed to the proposal but was unwilling to register for marriage with him?
"As you know, I brought up the separation from the Xie Family in order to draw out that ghost of the to Xie's. The lawyer said that before the separation is finalized, we should not register, or it will complicate things..." Jiang Yanting wasn't foolish; once she explained, he grasped the situation.
"So what is our relationship now?" The whole inteknew about his proposal, Shen Zhixian had agreed, yet he was still unworthy of a proper status? "That was your idea of separating from the start," Shen Zhixian added insult to injury.
Back then, with Jiang Jinsang present, they had discussed how to lure the snake out of its hole. The plan to separate was naturally agreed upon by Jiang Yanting.
"Yanting?" Shen Zhixian noticed something was off in his expression.
"I'm fine..." He'd successfully proposed, and yet he remained an unofficial man without a name.
What could Jiang Yanting say? Was the trap he had helped set for the Xie Family ghost ensnaring him first?
