Not sure if it was due to nervousness, but Huangfu Ruilings hands trembled a bit as he placed the ring on Ye Leng’an’s left index finger. After a few attempts, he successfully slid the ring onto her finger.
Observing his demeanor, Ye Lengan found it amusing. She extended her hand, pulling Huangfu Ruiling up.
Even after standing up, Huangfu Ruilings steps were somewhat unsteady. He swayed a few times before finally steadying himself.
Ye Lengan couldn’t help but smirk, “Looks like you’re really nervous!”
“Of course.” Huangfu Ruiling gazed at Ye Lengan. He wasn’t being insincere but spoke calmly, “This is my first time doing something like this. I don’t know if you’ll agree, so I must be nervous.”
Hearing this, Ye Lengan rolled her eyes, saying in a mockingly annoyed tone,
“The first time? Don’t tell me you’re expecting a second or third?”
Looking at her, Huangfu Ruiling calmly added, “Actually, I’ve prepared several plans. If you don’t like this proposal, 1 have other options to try.”
Ye Leng’an’s eyes widened. “You’ve prepared several plans?”
“Yes.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “Because I’m not sure what kind of approach you’d prefer, I naturally had to prepare alternatives.”
Ye Lengan couldn’t help but burst into laughter. , “Well, I guess you’re quite lucky. Because on your first attempt, I accepted your proposal.”
Initially a jest, Huangfu Ruiling surprisingly nodded earnestly. “Indeed, I am very lucky.”
Observing Huangfu Ruilings response, Ye Lengan found herself truly at a loss for words.
At that moment, the sky suddenly echoed with a series of bangs.
Ye Lengan looked up, witnessing a burst of fireworks unfolding across the
sky.
The myriad colors of the fireworks intertwined, creating a dazzling display, and turning the sky into a radiant sea of light. After a while, they transformed into gem-like stars embedded in the night, gradually descending as a beautiful starlight waterfall.
“This is…” Ye Leng’an’s eyes held a hint of surprise.
“To celebrate the successful proposal.” Huangfu Ruiling reached out, placing his hand on Ye Leng’an’s shoulder. His voice, magnetic and deep, resonated. “It’s also a token of gratitude for accepting my proposal. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your future.”
Ye Lengan beamed.
The fireworks spectacle delighted the entire capital city.
The dazzling display illuminated half the sky, captivating nearly everyone in the city. The event even received coverage on television, sparking speculation about which tycoon could have orchestrated it, possibly emptying an entire fireworks factory!
The spectacle continued for a full hour, leaving many curious about the cause behind such a grand fireworks display.
Some even capitalized on the moment to confess or successfully propose, turning the night into a memorable one for many couples.
The fireworks display promised to be a topic of conversation for a long time.
Yet, joy for some brought sorrow for others. Despite the captivating display, some couldn’t find joy in the moment.
One such person was Yuan Silei.
In her room, Yuan Silei wore a gloomy expression, paying no attention to the fireworks outside. Regardless of their beauty, they failed to capture her interest.
Earlier, Ye Lengan had mentioned severe damage to her uterus, suggesting she might be unable to conceive in the future. Initially hopeful, she had visited various renowned hospitals in the capital for a cure.
After extensive examinations, the results echoed Ye Leng’an’s statement.
Frustratingly, all the doctors unanimously declared her condition untreatable.
Now, she knew Ye Lengan was her only lifeline. Yet, she hesitated to seek her help, fearing further humiliation. Even if she did, Ye Lengan wouldn’t extend assistance; her actions might only invite more disgrace.
Her predicament left her torn.
While Ye Lengan represented her only hope, Yuan Silei resisted approaching her again, anticipating scorn. Yet, her future seemed bleak without her health. No affluent family would accept an infertile woman. Even if she concealed it and married into a prosperous family, a childless life loomed unhappily.
More distressing than her health was her family’s indifference.
Despite her visible distress, no one in the family noticed. Even her mother didn’t inquire. Her family’s apathy stung, given her sacrifices for their well-being. She questioned if her efforts were worthwhile.
Lost in her contemplation, a sweet ringtone jolted her back to reality. Answering instinctively, she heard the familiar voice, sparking an intense surge of hatred.
“Did you do what I asked?”
Despite her resentment, Yuan Silei fought to maintain composure. In the calmest tone possible, she responded, “I’ve placed the medicine in a protective talisman and given it to Ye Lengan. I instructed her to wear it constantly.”
After a brief silence, the voice returned. “Will she really wear the talisman you gave her? Yuan Silei, are you trying to deceive me? Remember, your family’s fate remains in my hands. If you can’t fulfill it, don’t blame me for being harsh..”
