Chapter 432: Chapter 432: The Proposal (2)

The man’s sudden movement elicited involuntary gasps from the audience, especially from the women, who could barely control the shrieks in their hearts!

Gu Tingting covered her mouth, unable to believe the scene unfolding on stage, and exclaimed, "Third Brother is proposing?!"

Gu Tingting’s voice was loud enough that everyone standing nearby heard her clearly.

Duan Tang and Bai Yiming both had a premonition that something was amiss, and upon hearing Gu Tingting’s words, their handsome faces turned utterly dark. In contrast, Old Master Gu standing in front of Gu Tingting broke into a beaming smile, his eyes filled with an unprecedented tenderness as he looked at Gu Yelin.

Different thoughts occupied the minds of those below the stage, while the couple on stage continued their tender display of affection.

Gu Yelin knelt on one knee, gazing deeply at the astonished An Yiqing, then took out a small black box he had prepared earlier.

"Tutu, marry me!"

In An Yiqing’s disbelieving gaze, Gu Yelin opened the brocade box, revealing a white jade ring surrounded by a misty haze.

Guests close to the podium, with keen eyes, saw the mist-veiled ring in Gu Yelin’s hand and couldn’t help screaming, "Isn’t that the precious jade sold for 130 million at the charity gala? The mysterious person was Third Young Master Guh!"

The guest’s exclamation reminded everyone of the grand charity auction half a month ago. At that event, the most famed item wasn’t gold or jewelry, but a piece of jade stone. About the size of half a man’s fist, the stone was pure white and warm to the touch. The most peculiar thing was the thin mist that seemed to envelop it, giving it an ethereal quality. According to the auctioneer, the jade was indestructible; they had tried many methods and devices but could not damage it at all.

At that time, the mist-veiled white jade attracted many people’s attention — only a fool would overlook such a treasure. Yet, in the end, a mysterious person in a private box, whose identity was unknown, won it with a bid of 130 million!

Today, the truth finally came to light! The mysterious person who had spent a fortune was none other than Gu Yelin!

Seeing the delicate white jade ring in his hand, people were puzzled, wondering how on earth he managed to cut the indestructible jade stone.

However, at this moment, Gu Yelin had no time to consider the thoughts of the crowd below. Holding the ring, his sexy lips slightly pursed, his eyes revealed his nervousness, and his always strong heart was beating faster than it ever had before.

An Yiqing stared blankly at the man kneeling before her as if she had lost her soul, showing no reaction at all.

In her mind, she suddenly remembered what she said to Gu Yelin on New Year’s Day when he asked her when they would marry.

At that time, she spoke without much thought, but she hadn’t expected that Gu Yelin would go to such great lengths to arrange such an unforgettable proposal!

An Yiqing looked at the nervous man before her, her clear eyes slightly moist. She opened her mouth, but her voice was stuck in her throat and couldn’t come out.

The banquet hall was deathly silent; everyone held their breath, motionless as they awaited the girl’s answer.

However, just as An Yiqing was about to speak, an elderly voice suddenly rang out.

"Brother An, you are indeed fortunate! With General Gu as your son-in-law, the An Family will truly be stronger than ever! Your precious granddaughter is so lucky to have caught the eye of the Gu Family!"

Everyone turned to see that the speaker was Qin Dingshan!

Everyone present was astute. To the untrained ear, Qin Dingshan’s words might seem like a mere formality, a simple compliment. But for those who listened carefully, the implications ran deep.
