Otherwise, what is the purpose of buying an engagement ring?
"What does Lu Ziting want to do?"
Gu Jingchen thought and subconsciously asked directly.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Ziying showed an expression of "knowingly asking questions" and answered cheerfully, "What else can he do? Of course he is planning to propose to his precious girlfriend!"
"Proposal?"
Gu Jingchen's heart was suddenly tightened so hard that he could hardly breathe for a moment.
Have An An and Lu Ziting developed to this point?
Does he really...have no chance at all?
Gu Jingchen's eyes were looking at the air in front of him without focus, and he was in a daze.
Then he saw a thin white hand waving in front of his eyes.
"Hey? Why are you so dazed? Are you going or not? For the sake of seeing me come to you personally..."
"go."
Gu Jingchen agreed almost subconsciously, without thinking at all.
After saying that, even I couldn't help being a little surprised, and then a flash of bitterness quickly flashed in my eyes.
It seemed that as long as it was related to An An... he didn't need to think about it at all.
Lu Ziying was even more surprised. She didn't expect that he actually agreed. She immediately pulled him with a smile on her face and walked in the direction of the parking lot, saying loudly as she walked.
"Then let's go now! Go early and come back early! I promise not to waste too much of your time!"
Gu Jingchen's eyes flickered for a moment and he didn't say anything, but still let him get into his car.
Seeing this, Tang Ze didn't dare to say anything, so he had to act as the driver.
Lu Ziying was extremely excited, thinking that she had finally found a breakthrough. She almost kept talking to Gu Jingchen along the way, telling him interesting things that happened in her previous years abroad.
Gu Jingchen basically didn't speak much, only responded occasionally, and his heart was already in a mess.
ring……
An An is going to wear the ring prepared for her by another man.
and……
It may also be that he, the "ex-husband", personally selected him.
What on earth is he doing?
Obviously he is unwilling to let go like this, but he is helpless.
Even wanting to talk to An An is a luxury.
Except for this noisy woman next to him, he has no other way to get news about her...
"Hey! Are you listening to me?"
Lu Ziying talked alone for a long time, and when she saw that Gu Jingchen seemed to be lost in thought again, she suddenly felt dissatisfied.
"Um."
Gu Jingchen responded, but a dark light quickly flashed in his eyes.
If we can only know about An An's current situation through Lu Ziying, then...
He thought about it, and finally couldn't help but take the initiative to speak, tentatively asking about Lu Ziting and Su An.
"Do your brother and his girlfriend... have a good relationship?"
When Lu Ziying saw that he actually took the initiative to talk to her, she was so happy that she answered everything without reservation.
As Gu Jingchen listened, his mood sank to the bottom.
Soon, the two people went directly to the nearest shopping mall.
As soon as she entered the door, Lu Ziying rushed towards several famous jewelry brands on the first floor.
"Hello, I would like to see the diamond ring!"
As soon as she came up, she went straight to the topic and pulled Gu Jingchen to the display case of the ring.
As soon as the salesperson saw the temperament of the two people, he knew that a big deal was coming, and he hurriedly and enthusiastically introduced the design and meaning of each ring.
But after reading several of them, Lu Ziying was not particularly satisfied, and Gu Jingchen didn't express any opinions.
It wasn't until she arrived at the last store that she took a fancy to a ring with a crown design and a diamond-shaped diamond in the middle.
“This is beautiful!”
Lu Ziying's eyes gleamed.
As soon as he finished speaking, the salesperson on the side immediately said, "Miss, you have really good taste. The name of this ring is called Sublime Fantasy, which means that the man who gives this ring will regard the woman who receives it as the forever and only one in her eyes."
Light."
"Light?"
Lu Ziying raised her eyebrows. The more she looked at it, the more she found the ring to be very pleasing to the eye. She subconsciously looked at Gu Jingchen aside.
But I found that he was also staring at the ring in a daze.
"What do you think?"
Lu Ziying leaned over and asked.
"good."
Gu Jingchen, who had been silent for almost the whole time, finally replied with two words in a deep voice, looking at the ring in front of him with a somewhat moved expression.
What it would look like on Su An's slender, white fingers has also appeared in his mind.
The meaning of this ring is very good.
When he and An An got married...
Thinking that he didn't take this kind of thing to heart at all, Gu Jingchen felt a little sour in his heart.
Then she heard Lu Ziying directly say, "Sure enough, heroes think alike! I knew it was right to ask you to come with us! Then this is what we need!"
Soon, the ring was packed.
Gu Jingchen's eyes passed over the beautifully packaged small bag, and his heart throbbed.
Lu Ziying held the small bag in her hand with satisfaction and kept looking at Gu Jingchen next to her, thinking about what excuses she could use to keep him a little longer.
Then I heard——
"I still have things to do, so I'll leave first."
Gu Jingchen took one last look at the ring in her hand, and then turned to leave.
"Wait a moment!!!"
Lu Ziying hurriedly followed up and spoke like a machine gun.
"Then if I have something to do next time, can I come to you? I haven't returned to China for a long time, and my friends are not here. My brother is busy dating now, and no one can accompany me! You see, the two of us got along just now
There's nothing unpleasant about it, how about you just make friends with me? In order to thank you for your help today, I'll treat you to dinner another day?"
She sputtered a lot.
However, Gu Jingchen didn't hear a word. He only heard the sentence "My brother is busy falling in love now."
Busy falling in love with Su An.
The next second——
He suddenly stopped and looked at the person in front of him intently. His fingers hanging by his side were clenched unconsciously, and his eyes were so complicated that it was difficult to understand.
Lu Ziying was startled by his look and subconsciously took two steps back, but she still couldn't help but look forward to his answer.
For a long time——
"Let's talk if I have time."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Lu Ziying was stunned on the spot, unable to recover for a while.
Did she...hear that right?
Did that big iceberg just agree to her invitation?
Since you agreed, why were you looking at her so fiercely just now!!!
I thought I was going to be scolded...
Maybe it's because he feels awkward and doesn't want to admit that he has a crush on her?
snort!
As expected, it’s awkward and arrogant!!
Just wait!
Sooner or later she will take it down!
Inside the car——
Gu Jingchen was staring out the window without saying a word, his eyebrows had been twisted together since just now.
It seems that the moment he heard that Lu Ziting planned to propose to Su An, his reason fell into the abyss and was submerged little by little.
I shouldn't have agreed to that Lu Ziying...
He had no interest in that woman at all, so he could just refuse her.
But she is the only person who is close to An An now.
Only in this way can he get the latest information about her...
Is An An really sure to choose Lu Ziting?
Gu Jingchen clenched his knuckles together and made a soft sound.
Then he suddenly thought of something again, and hope instantly rose in his eyes.
He understands An An.
She is actually a very slow-tempered person...
Is it possible...
Will she agree to Lu Ziting's proposal?
…
The next day——
It was quiet in the Lu family villa.
Lu Ziting woke up early and quickly packed up. After confirming that his parents had not gotten up, he breathed a sigh of relief and took the ring that Lu Ziying brought back yesterday and prepared to go out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the stairs, he saw someone quietly walking out of the room.
When their eyes met, Lu Ziting and Lu Ziying were both stunned.
"Get up so early?"
"Brother, are you ready to leave now?"
The two people spoke at the same time.
As Lu Ziying said this, she walked over and bumped into Lu Ziting's shoulder.
"Aren't I worried about you? After all, it is such an important thing to propose. Even if your parents don't support you, there must be someone to cheer you up! Or should I go with you?"
She looked like she wanted to watch the fun and waited for Lu Ziting to nod.
Lu Ziting did not hesitate to put his fingertips on her shoulders and push her back.
"I don't want to put so much pressure on An An, and this is a matter between the two of us, so don't join in the fun. I appreciate your kindness."
"Tch... If you don't go, I won't go. Then I'll wait for your good news at home!"
Lu Ziying didn't force herself and agreed.
"good."
Lu Ziting reached out and rubbed her hair. Although he did not agree to let her accompany him, his nervousness was relieved a lot because of her few words.
After saying that, he left.
Lu Ziying stood on the stairs and saw Lu Ziting going out, then she hurriedly turned around and quickly slipped back into the room, picked up her mobile phone and started sending a message to Gu Jingchen.
【Big Iceberg! Have you woken up? Come and chat!】
[Let me tell you, my brother is very satisfied with the ring and has already gone out! Do you think he can propose successfully? 】
Lu Ziying sent two messages in a row, choosing to use Lu Ziting's incident as a topic.
after all……
He and his brother knew each other.
Maybe you will be interested in this kind of gossip?
Lu Ziying thought about it, and after waiting for a few minutes, there was still no reply as before, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
I was about to throw my phone aside, but then——
Her cell phone suddenly rang twice!
Lu Ziying picked up her phone in an instant, quickly lit up the screen, and saw Gu Jingchen's message!
【today?】
Just two short words.
But despite this, Lu Ziying still replied happily.
[Yes! Today! He is already on his way to my future sister-in-law’s house. I also said I wanted to go with him, but he didn’t take me, so I can only cheer for him at home~]
The news was sent out, but nothing happened again.
This time, Gu Jingchen did not reply.
Lu Ziying waited for a while, then reluctantly put down her phone and pouted angrily.
What...
No more messages!
But...that big iceberg seems to be very interested in my brother's gossip?
Probably because men care about face, so they are embarrassed to inquire about each other's personal affairs...
It seems that I can try to chat with him more about my brother in the future!
Maybe as time goes by, he will reply more messages!
On the other side——
Su An stayed up almost all night.
She didn't have a good rest all night, and she fell into a light sleep almost at dawn. However, not long after, she was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone.
Su An fumbled for her phone, picked it up without looking at it, and put it to her ear.
Then I heard——
"An'an, I'm downstairs at your house, would you... be willing to come down and see me?"
It's Lu Ziting.
His voice sounded a little cautious for some reason.
Su An was startled, opened his eyes instantly, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the window.
The senior is downstairs?
Did he come to find him?
She hurriedly sat up from the bed, listened to the voice on the phone, and wanted to answer.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his throat was a little dry and no sound came out.
"An'an, I just have something to say to you. I've been thinking about these things for a long time, and I have to tell you in person. Come down and see me, okay?"
Lu Ziting took her silence as rejection and hurriedly spoke again.
This time, it even sounded pleading, but it was as gentle as ever.
Su An's eyes flickered for a moment, and she couldn't help but recall how Lu Ziting took good care of her during the time she lived in the Lu family.
How can she be loved by such a good person?
Now you let him beg you downstairs in a low voice?
Her heart tightened suddenly, and Su An hurriedly agreed in a hoarse voice, "Okay."
Lu Ziting's worried heart was instantly relieved, and his tone instantly became happy.
"Then I'll wait for you! Don't worry, you can take your time to clean up!"
"Um."
Su An responded softly, hung up the phone, and looked out the window again.
After a while, he couldn't help but sigh.
She was the one who felt sorry for the senior.
It’s better to persuade him and tell him clearly...
After a brief tidying up, Su An only took care of her hair and went downstairs without even putting on makeup.
She had been exhausted mentally and physically during this period, and her unpainted face was only pale, and her whole body had a sense of fragility and fragility that seemed to disappear in the next second.
"An'an!"
Lu Ziting greeted Su An as soon as he saw her. Seeing her expression, he suddenly looked worried, "Why do you look so bad? You didn't rest last night, okay?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously raised his hand to touch her.
However, Su An moved half a step back to avoid his movement.
Lu Ziting's hands froze in mid-air, and sadness slowly appeared in his eyes.
But Su An didn't dare to look directly into his eyes. She just looked down at the ground under her feet and said softly, "Senior, what do you want to tell me?"
Lu Ziting pursed his lips and said nothing.
On the way here, he was always nervous.
But now that he saw the appearance of the person in front of him, he suddenly had no worries at all, and only became more determined in his thoughts.
He wants to protect An An.
Take care of her for the rest of her life.
Never let her show such a lonely and tired look again.
The air was quiet for a moment.
Su An heard that Lu Ziting didn't speak for a long time, and finally couldn't help but raise his eyes in confusion.
Then she saw the person in front of her staring at her intently. Her eyes were full of firmness and determination that surprised her, as if she had made some important decision.
The next second——
Lu Ziting took half a step back and knelt on one knee.
Su An's eyes widened slightly, and she understood what he meant the moment he made this action.
Then she watched helplessly as he revealed his right hand that had been hidden behind his back, dragging a small box in his palm.
In the center, there is a dazzling diamond ring.
Senior, this is...
Su An was so shocked that she couldn't recover.
She wanted to stop it.
But was speechless.
far away--
Gu Jingchen hurriedly ran from a distance, but when he saw the situation clearly, his steps stopped suddenly and he subconsciously hid himself behind a tree. His heart was in knots and a wry smile appeared on his lips.
