Chapter 687 And she said YES! (1/2)

Morning came as the news spread throughout Imperial about De L'amour and An Qing uniting as one under the same ownership.

However, that was not the only news that surfaced.

Everyone was more in shock about the engagement between the retired supermodel, Han Yue Ling, and Lu Corps' CEO, Lu Tian. Even those in different countries did not miss this big news.

Both De L'amour and Lu Corps' phones rang without pause as the media tries to pry for information. However, the only information they received was that the engagement party will be held in one month, follow by the wedding.

Some people supported the couple's relationship and nicknamed them 'Imperial's Power Couple', while others found Yue Ling unworthy of Lu Tian and Lu Tian unworthy of Yue Ling. Of course, this was only due to jealousy as they didn't want to believe that their idol as no longer single.

”Arrhhh—!!!”

In the far distance from the heart of Imperial, a woman's loud shrieking cry can be heard from inside a white two-story Mediterranean style house.

”Babe, what's wrong?”

Inside the main bedroom, a healthy-looking man jolted awake at the woman's pierce shrieking cry. He abruptly sat up and runs his hand through his slightly disheveled hair.

The blanket that covered his body slowly falls to his waist as it reveals his toned and muscular upper body.

”Chu Hua darling, it's so early in the morning. Why are you screaming like you've seen a ghost?”

Gu Ting Fei glance with an annoyed look at the naked woman sitting on the bed with him. The sun hasn't even fully rose in the sky and here he is, awoken by her.

”Argh! I can't believe this! No! I don't believe this!”

Ji Chu Hua ignores her so-called boyfriend and frantically shakes her head in denial. Her bloodshot eyes glued to the screen of her phone and she continues to scroll through the web.

”This isn't true. No, this is impossible.”

Gu Ting Fei stares at her and his irritation intensifies. He yanks the blanket off of him and gets out of bed. His completely exposed figure walks to the lavatory and decides to shower.

However, deep inside, he was cursing at Ji Chu Hua for being so annoying in the morning.

If he knew that she was going to disturb his beauty sleep, he would have left home after their intimate exercise. Better yet, he should have gone to find another woman.

*knock knock

”Hua-Er, what's wrong? Why are you screaming so loud? You woke you the entire house.”

Just when the door to the lavatory closed, a frantic knock sounds at the bedroom door followed by Ji Shao An's worried voice.

Hearing her father, Ji Chu Hua snaps back to reality. She looks down at her body and realizing that she was still naked and covered in love marks, she quickly stood up to put on a robe.

She strides to the door and sighs in relief that it was locked. She would have been embarrassed if her father had walked in on her and Gu Ting Fei.

”Hua-Er, do you hear me?”

She stops in front of the door at the same time her father asks again. She opens the door and pokes her head out with a smile.

”Sorry, father. I was just surprised and screamed. Once I finish dressing, I will meet you in the living room and explain.”

Ji Shao An stares at his daughter with a slight frown. However, he doesn't say anything and turns around to leave.

Watching his figure walk towards the stairs, she shuts the door and locks it. Turning around, she looks at the bed and pouts her lips when she realizes that Gu Ting Fei was not in bed.

However, just as she thought this, she hears the toilet flush then the shower water running.

A smirk curls on her lip and she walks to the lavatory. She slowly pushes the door open and removes her robe to join the man.

Outside the bedroom, Ji Shao An enters the living room and sat down on the sofa. He stares up at the huge portrait hung on the wall of his deceased wife.
