"Ten years?" Mu Xing was indeed surprised with his mouth wide open. "Why have you been engaged for ten years without getting married?"
Amidst the noisy cheers, Bai Lingyun turned his head and said to Mu Xing, "You know what my brother does. He was tracking Cesar for a long ti. It was a very dangerous operation, and he didn’t want to involve Song Ning."
"But if he didn’t want to involve her, why get engaged in the first place? They could have just not gotten engaged."
"They were childhood sweethearts, a couple from very early on, and everyone in the family knew. Everyone thought it would naturally progress to marriage, so they got engaged very early. But then sothing happened, my brother left the Bai Family, and there was no news about him for a long ti."
Mu Xing listened, sowhat lost in thought. With so many challenges, how have they managed to hold on until now?
"Alright, enough about that!" Xu Yuan eagerly interrupted, "Wanwan’s bouquet throw earlier was so accurate. I hope mine will also bring good luck to love!"
In the crowd, a hopeful voice murmured, "I really want it."
Gu Anjin stared unblinkingly at the bouquet, but unsurprisingly, she didn’t get even the slightest response.
The tall, imposing man beside her remained silent, his face cold.
As Xu Yuan lifted the bouquet, he suddenly turned aside and said indifferently, "I have a bit of business to attend to, I’ll go make a call."
Gu Anjin bit her lip and stood in place.
Her face was full of disappointnt.
"What’s wrong, Jinjin?" Arthur asked, holding two glasses of champagne, and handed one to her. "Here’s the champagne you wanted. Where did Yue Siqing go?"
Gu Anjin took it, "He went to make a call. He did it on purpose. I just ntioned I wanted the bouquet."
"The bouquet? Hurry, it’s about to be thrown."
"No need, I don’t want it anymore." Gu Anjin didn’t rush for it but instead looked up as the bouquet traced a beautiful arc through the air.
Then, the bouquet landed precisely on Mu Xing.
Mu Xing hadn’t paid attention to the bouquet; such things were for couples in love, nothing to do with her, and she had no intention of catching it.
She was listening to Bai Lingyun when she was inexplicably hit.
The bouquet hit her, and she surprisingly didn’t even know how to catch it.
When the bouquet was about to hit the ground, a large hand reached over from her side and caught it steadily.
Mu Xing suddenly looked up to see Bai Lingyun holding the bouquet with a few intriguing looks in his eyes.
She suddenly realized the situation, and her face turned red under everyone’s gaze.
If Bai Lingyun hadn’t caught it, the bouquet might have just fallen on her and then to the ground.
The way he caught it, it seed like...
"Wow, nice catch!"
"It hit the girl’s side, and the guy caught it, this is great!"
"Bai Lingyun’s girlfriend? Such a perfect throw, not disappointing the singles."
"Indeed, if it fell into a single person’s hands, it would be too awkward."
Shao Zhixing stood with his hands in his pockets, a smug smile on his face.
His wife throws very accurately, so everyone is happy like this.
Shao Zhixing tilted his chin and yelled across the space, "Hey, did you two brothers plan this? Taking over all the bouquets today?"
Lu Wanwan looked at Mu Xing’s stunned expression and burst out laughing.
"What’s so funny?" Gu Annan asked, holding her.
"Do you think if Bai Lingyun proposes, Mu Xing would faint?"
Gu Annan had a slightly mischievous smile, "Mu Xing wouldn’t agree, if he wants to embarrass himself, let him propose."
