Chapter 432: The Proposal (2)
The man’s sudden movement elicited involuntary gasps from the audience, especially from the women, who could barely control the shrieks in their hearts!
Gu Tingting covered her mouth, unable to believe the scene unfolding on stage, and exclaimed, "Third Brother is proposing?!"
Gu Tingting’s voice was loud enough that everyone standing nearby heard her clearly.
Duan Tang and Bai Yiming both had a premonition that something was amiss, and upon hearing Gu Tingting’s words, their handsome faces turned utterly dark. In contrast, Old Master Gu standing in front of Gu Tingting broke into a beaming smile, his eyes filled with an unprecedented tenderness as he looked at Gu Yelin.
Different thoughts occupied the minds of those below the stage, while the couple on stage continued their tender display of affection.
Gu Yelin knelt on one knee, gazing deeply at the astonished An Yiqing, then took out a small black box he had prepared earlier.
"Tutu, marry me!"
In An Yiqing’s disbelieving gaze, Gu Yelin opened the brocade box, revealing a white jade ring surrounded by a misty haze.
Guests close to the podium, with keen eyes, saw the mist-veiled ring in Gu Yelin’s hand and couldn’t help screaming, "Isn’t that the precious jade sold for 130 million at the charity gala? The mysterious person was Third Young Master Guh!"
The guest’s exclamation reminded everyone of the grand charity auction half a month ago. At that event, the most famed item wasn’t gold or jewelry, but a piece of jade stone. About the size of half a man’s fist, the stone was pure white and warm to the touch. The most peculiar thing was the thin mist that seemed to envelop it, giving it an ethereal quality. According to the auctioneer, the jade was indestructible; they had tried many methods and devices but could not damage it at all.
