Before she could even process what was happening, young ladies wearing the same dresses orderly entered the hall with pure white roses.
They walked toward her and surrounded her in a heart shape.
That was not all…
Suddenly, rose petals started raining from the ceiling. The smell of fresh roses engulfed the entire room.
At this moment, a man wearing a black tuxedo entered. He was holding a bouquet of red roses and he walked toward her slowly.
Zhou Shuang was shocked and touched.
She didn’t know how to react. In a daze, she stared at the man walking towards her. Flower petals landed before her eyes, some even landed on her hair and shoulders.
They landed on the devilishly charming man himself.
In that moment, time seemed to come to a standstill.
The hall was so quiet, everyone could hear their racing hearts.
The entire scene confused the children. They didn’t know what had just happened. They stared at each other, at a loss.
“Zhou Shuang, marry me.”
The man got down on one knee before her. He raised the bouquet of roses toward her.
He peered up at her slightly, a face of sincerity.
Zhou Shuang’s eyes welled up with tears. She almost burst out crying.
Because she had been waiting for this moment for a long time. She had been waiting until she lost all hope and felt like giving up…
She stared at the flowers in his hand. There was a diamond ring among the flowers and it shimmered under the light.
Roses represented love. Diamonds represented eternity. Zhou Shuang’s eyes and nose turned red. She gazed at Lu Yinan, her eyes covered with a layer of tears.
Without hesitation, she bit her lip and nodded. “Yes.”
Her voice was choked.
Then she stuck out her right hand. Lu Yinan retrieved the diamond ring from the roses and placed them down. He held her hand and helped her put the ring on.
The ballroom erupted in applause.
Applauding his successful proposal and applauding her for finally becoming a daughter-in-law.
Giving them their blessings!
The applause stopped and Yan Rusheng lifted his glass of red wine. He looked at Zhou Shuang and Lu Yinan in disdain. “She didn’t even hesitate.”
Xuxu turned to look at him. “Why should she hesitate?”
Before he could reply, Ming Ansheng said, “Lu Yinan spent so much effort planning all this, of course, she has to make things more dramatic.”
Suddenly, Su Yue commented, “I didn’t know that Lu Yinan was so romantic.”
She leaned against the table and smiled as she gazed at them longingly.
Just longingly.
Xuxu nodded. “Indeed. Such a thoughtful man. Lu Yinan really went all out this time.”
“It’s just flashy without substance,” Young Master Yan commented unhappily.
Xuxu tilted her chin up at him. “But women love this feeling.”
Yan Rusheng replied, “I didn’t know that women are so hypocritical.”
“Yes, I’m hypocritical.” Xuxu stuck her tongue out at him and rolled her eyes. Then she grabbed Su Yue’s hand and said, “Let’s go congratulate Zhou Shuang. Give her a toast.”
Yan Rusheng hurriedly went forward to explain, “Wife, you’ve got me wrong. I didn’t mean it that way.”
Xuxu ignored him and dragged Su Yue over to Zhou Shuang. They clanked their glasses against hers.
