Chapter 289 - Marry Me? (2/2)

But the two people under all the attention were lost in their own little bubble.

''Of course, I will,'' Jun Zixuan grabbed the back of her head, lightly enough to not mess her hairstyle, but firm enough to keep her head in place, ''I will marry you,'' He said, placing a gentle peck on her lips.

She smiled. Grabbing his hand, she placed the ring on his ring finger before kissing his lips, ''You can't go back on your words...'' She held his collar and dragged it slightly downwards before speaking beside his ear, ''...No matter how badly we fight, how much we bicker and how many times I burn the kitchen...In the end, you are sticking to us. Is that clear?”

Jun Zixuan chuckled, a smile that had almost all the women go weak in knees. A smile that was never on his face since the beginning of the night.

''Very clear,'' He pressed a kiss on her forehead.

''President Leanne, is that your rumored latest design?” A reporter pointed at the ring, ''The one with the carvings of the rarest purple gemstone...?''

''As you can see, it is,'' Yu Mei nodded at them as Jun Zixuan lowered the mic to her mouth.

''President Leanne, is true about what you said regarding having a crush on President Jun?”

''Of course, do I look like a liar?''

One after another, all questions were directed at Yu Mei because everyone was intimidated by Jun Zixuan and for the very first time in life, Yu Mei was 'kind' enough to answer the media. Of course, she did not go deep with her answers. She just touched the surface. Questions like where you met and how you met were cleanly dodged by Yu Mei.

As another rounds of questions came, Jun Zixuan moved the mic towards his mouth, ”That should be enough,'' His tone surprisingly amicable unlike the icy one that they heard before, ''Enjoy yourselves,'' His guards received the mic from him while the couple descended the stage hand in hand.

As amicable as he sounded, nobody dared to mess around any longer. They had adequate information on their hands for it to be trending headlines for weeks or months.

But everyone's gaze followed the couple.

''Zixuan, wait...''

Jun Zixuan paused as he turned around to glance at her, ''Grandpa is here...'' She pointed her chin towards the entrance where Grandpa Yu walked inside holding Yu Jinhai's hand followed by a trail of bodyguards.

The little boy clad in white tuxedo dashed straight towards Jun Zixuan, ”Happy Birthday, Brother-in-law.''

The guests: ”_”

The reporters: ”_”

How could they forget that Yu Mei mentioned it is her crush's birthday. Doesn't that means it President Jun's birthday?

Wait...What's with young Master of Yu Family addressing the man in such way. It seems like they the couple were already set in stone and just had to make things official...
