Chapter 687 And she said YES! (2/2)
���Dear, if only you were still here.”
He had to admit, its practically his fault that Ji Chu Hua grew up spoiled and stubborn.
After his wife died, he did everything he could to give his daughter what she wanted as she is his only child. He wanted her to have a nice heart and grow up caring, but knowing that the other Ji families are cruel and selfish, he had to push her into fighting for the chairman seat at Ji Corps.
She was the perfect person for the position, but now that Yue Ling has entered the picture, what will become of them?
Thinking this, he heaves a long sigh. Even he is ashamed with himself that his daughter brings home a man without the intention of marriage.
Two hours soon passes by and Ji Chu Hua still did not come downstairs.
Ji Shao An felt blood rush to his head and he slaps his knee with a loud thud.
”Call Hua-Er to come downstairs this instant.”
He yells at a maid standing nearby with his nostrils flaring. He may have let her have it her way, but he is still her father. How dare she make him lose face?
”Father, who has angered you so much?”
Ji Chu Hua's soft voice sounds worried as she walks down the stairs. She looked refined and well-manner in a pink floral dress with a white cardigan over.
She had one arm locked around Gu Ting Fei's arm as he wore a navy tailored suit and one can see a satisfied smile plastered on his face.
Ji Shao An saw the young man's face and his expression grew sour. He knew right away the reason for that smile. He snorts disapprovingly and looks away from the two people.
He has lived long enough to know that Gu Ting Fei's smile is one a man makes when he has filled his desires with a woman.
However, despite him feeling this way about their shameless relationship, he cannot get on the Gu family's bad side. Right now, he and Ji Chu Hua need their every support.
Ji Chu Hua sees Gu Ting Fei out the door then returns to the living room. She sits down on the sofa across from her father and the refine appearance she had on disappeared into that of a haughty woman.
”Dad, why are sulking like a child? What if Brother Ting Fei misread your intentions?”
Seeing her this way, Ji Shao An kept a calm expression but rolled his eyes on the inside. He heaves a long sigh and looks at her with seriousness.
”Hua-Er, you and Ting Fei have been together for a long time now. Even outsides are well aware of your close relationship. When are you both going to stop this game of yours and get married?”
Ji Chu Hua scoffs a sarcastic chuckle with attitude. She reaches inside the pocket of her cardigan and takes out her phone. She unlocks the screen and places it down on the coffee table.
”Instead of worrying about my relationship, we have something more important to worry about now.”
Ji Shao An reaches over the table and picks up her phone. He looks down at what she had to show him, but he widens when he read the first line.
'Lu Corp's CEO, Lu Tian finally proposed.'
He scrolls the page up and sees the two photos released by the media.
The first one was Yue Ling and Lu Tian during the Fall Fashion Show. It was the same photo a photographer captured when Yue Ling wore De L'amour's closing design and her eyes met with Lu Tian who was in the audience.
Unlike the first photo that was bright, the second photo was captured in the dark at the lake. There was little light, but anyone can see who the two people in the photo were.
It was Lu Tian and he was on one knee in a wooden boat proposing to Yue Ling with many glowing lights around them.
Ji Shao An held in his breath as he scrolls through the news. At the end of the webpage, what was written in big bold words was: 'And she said YES!'
Veins pop on his forehead and his expression distorted into ugliness.
”This… How is this possible?”
