At the end of the song, the lights were still on. There were only two beams of light shining on the male and female protagonists.
No one applauded, not because it was not nice, but because the music was just a foil. They were afraid that clapping would ruin the aesthetic mood of the moment.
Zhou Haoqian stood up and took a deep breath. It was obvious that he was very excited and nervous.
He took out a box from his pocket, opened it, and took out a diamond ring inlaid with a huge diamond. Illuminated by the light, he walked slowly toward Ding Qianlie.
"What a big diamond ring. I'm so happy to be able to marry Young Master Zhou."
"At least a dozen carats. God, if only I were that girl."
"It's so romantic, so beautiful."
…
A group of love-struck girls stared at the large diamond ring in Zhou Haoqian's hand, and their eyes were filled with envy.
At this moment, Ding Qianlie's face had become calm again. She looked at him calmly and leisurely, and no one could tell what she was feeling at this moment.
Siya curled her lips in disdain. A diamond ring that was less than 20 carats, and he still has the nerve to propose? There are more than a dozen Heart of the Sea that are more than 40 carats in the drawer of the Eldest Young Mistress' office.
In front of the railing on the second floor, Zhou Junxiong stood there with his wife, son, and daughter, watching this scene. With a satisfied smile, he lit a cigar. He believed that there was no woman in this world who could refuse such a romantic proposal from the eldest young master of the Zhou family.
However, they did not notice the sneer in the eyes of the bodyguards behind them.
The background music played again. It was "Smiling Crescent Moon".
Following the rhythm of the music, Zhou Haoqian walked slowly to Ding Qianlie, knelt down on one knee affectionately, raised the box with the diamond ring in his hand, and was about to speak …
"I refuse!"
Ding Qianlie's clear and calm voice resounded throughout the club.
"What? Refuse? Did I hear that right? Is there something wrong with this woman's head? "
"Why do I feel that this woman is so hypocritical? He's definitely putting on airs to please the crowd. "
"Young Master Zhou is handsome, rich, and talented. Only a fool would reject him."
"Oh, stupid woman, does she know what she's talking about? She actually dared to reject Young Master Zhou's proposal. I think her gold membership is going to be revoked. "
…
The scene suddenly became noisy, and people whispered in disbelief.
With a clatter, the cigar in Zhou Junxiong's mouth fell to the ground. He widened his eyes in disbelief and stared at Ding Qianlie, who looked calm, with monstrous anger in his eyes.
He had made such a grand proposal with great momentum, but before he could even say anything, he was directly rejected. He had become the laughing stock of everyone. This was a slap in the face, a naked slap in the face.
Zhou Haoqian's smile suddenly froze on his face. His eyes were filled with disbelief. He asked in a trembling voice, "Why? I love you so much. "
"Why? I've only met you three times, and we haven't even exchanged more than ten sentences. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you say you love me? "
Ding Qianlie said with calm and frank eyes.
"In the past, I never believed in love at first sight, but from the first time I saw you, my heart couldn't help but beat wildly. I wanted to talk to you, but I was afraid of talking to you, because I would blush when you talked to me. I was afraid that I would say something wrong and make you unhappy. Your every move, every frown, and every smile made me yearn for you, and easily affected my emotions. I told myself that I fell in love with you, and I must marry you …"
Zhou Haoqian sincerely analyzed his mental journey and confessed to Ding Qianlie, trying to move her.
Unfortunately, Ding Qianlie disappointed him. Her face was still calm, and she looked at him as if she were looking at a passerby. She said lightly, "I'm very grateful to Young Master Zhou.
But I'm sorry, I don't have that kind of feeling for you. What's more … "
"What's more?"
Zhou Haoqian asked in frustration with a hurt expression.
"What's more, I have someone I love."
The corners of Ding Qianlie's mouth curled up slightly, and a touch of tenderness appeared on her beautiful face. It seemed that even thinking of that person could make her feel sweet and happy.
Zhou Haoqian was so jealous that he was about to go crazy. He roared like a wounded beast, "Who is he? Who is he? How is he better than me? "
"You're wrong. Love can't be obtained by comparison. Not to mention that he is better than you, even if he is not as good as you, I still love him."
Ding Qianlie looked at him with pity and said. She regretted coming to this bullsh * t party.
"You said he is better than me? I don't believe it. Tell me who he is and what his name is. I want to compete with him fairly. "
Zhou Haoqian was stimulated by her pitiful eyes, and he roared hysterically with red eyes.
"You proposed to my wife without her consent. Do you really think that the world revolves around you? Fair competition? Do you have that qualification? "
A faint voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, and the tone was full of disdain.
Ding Qianlie looked pleasantly surprised. She suddenly looked in the direction of the voice and said softly, "Why are you here?"
"Someone has proposed to my wife. How can I not come?"
Ding Ning said unhappily, which made Ding Qianlie's face turn pale, but her heart melted like sugar, making her feel an unprecedented sweetness.
Zhou Haoqian stared at Ding Ning with hostility and shouted, "Turn on the light. Let me see how he is better than me."
"No need to turn on the light. Let me show off first."
Ding Ning's voice was not loud, but it rang clearly in everyone's ears.
Just as everyone was pondering over the meaning of his words, they heard Ding Ning say mysteriously, "I said, there should be light here."
Swoosh!
The light that had been shining on Zhou Haoqian suddenly disappeared, and he fell into darkness.
A beam of light fell from the sky and shone on Ding Ning's body, revealing his figure. The tailored handmade suit made his tall and straight figure look even more perfect and slender.
He had well-defined facial features, sword-like eyebrows as black as ink, a high nose bridge, and firm lips … His deep eyes shone like black gems under the light.
"Wow, he's so handsome. If I had such a handsome boyfriend, I'm afraid I would also refuse Childe Zhou."
A socialite held her hands in front of her heart and murmured with a face full of infatuation.
"What's the use of being handsome? Can he make a living? Eldest Young Master Zhou is the first-in-line successor to the Zhou Family. Compared to him, that handsome young man is definitely thrown eighteen streets away. "
A woman who was jealous of Ding Qianlie curled her lips and said sourly.
"That's hard to say. Judging from this handsome boy's taste in clothes, he is definitely not an ordinary person. Maybe his background is even greater than that of the Zhou Family."
The infatuated woman said unwillingly, but she was obviously not confident enough.
"Don't forget that Ding Qianlie is the chairman of Longteng Group. Maybe that handsome boy is a gigolo kept by her."
The jealous woman said that the grapes were sour because she could not eat them, and speculated maliciously.
…
Their voices were very low, but they could not be hidden from Ding Ning's ears. He was speechless and cursed in his heart, "You are a gigolo, and all your family members are gigolos."
"What's wrong with the lighting technician? Why did he cut off the light when he hit that boy? "
Zhou Junxiong clenched his fists and turned his head to ask discontentedly.
"Chairman Zhou, it can't be cut off. That light is not a light at all.
It was arranged by the lighting technician. I don't know where it came from. "
The club manager next to him replied with a bitter face, and his expression was quite strange.
When Ding Ning cut off Zhou Haoqian's light, he immediately went to question the lighting technician. But as a result, the lighting technician looked as if he had seen a ghost. He could not even light up Zhou Haoqian again, let alone cut off the light that shone on Ding Ning.
"Rubbish, what kind of lighting technician is so useless? Then turn on the lights."
Zhou Junxiong scolded angrily and gnashed his teeth. He could not watch the person who slapped the Zhou family enjoy the limelight alone. The more Ding Ning enjoyed the limelight, the more the Zhou family's face hurt.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from the club manager's forehead, and he wanted to cry. "I also want to turn on the lights, but I don't know what happened. All the lights suddenly broke, and they didn't turn on when I turned on the lights. I have arranged for someone to repair them."
"You … humph, you are a top club. What a group of useless trash."
Zhou Junxiong scolded angrily.
Although the club manager was very unhappy, he did not dare to talk back, and could only nod and bow to apologize repeatedly.
Although the club was under the name of the chairman, Bai Qing, he was only a professional manager, while Zhou Junxiong was one of the few platinum members in the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou. Zhou Junxiong's status was far higher than that of a small manager. If he really offended Zhou Junxiong and expressed his dissatisfaction in front of Bai Qing, his good days would come to an end.
"I don't accept it. I want to compete with you fairly."
Although Zhou Haoqian was very unwilling, he had to admit that Ding Ning was not inferior to him in terms of appearance, and even better than him. However, he really fell in love with Ding Qianlie, so he was not willing to give up like this, so he shouted unwillingly.
"Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, don't be afraid of thieves robbing, but be afraid of thieves remembering. Since you don't accept it, then tell me the truth. I will take it all. I will never leave until you are convinced and completely give up."
Ding Ning had planned to give the Zhou family a deep lesson, and Zhou Haoqian's provocation was exactly what he wanted. He immediately said confidently, "But I have to make it clear first. My wife is my heart, and she is not a bet. If you have the ability to make her fall in love with you, that is your ability."
Ding Qianlie felt sweet and coquettishly rolled her eyes at him, but she ignored that she was under the spotlight at the moment. That moment of charming charm attracted countless swallowing sounds in the darkness.
Zhou Haoqian's eyes were fixed on her, and he roared wildly in his heart. "She is mine, she must be mine, and no one can take her away from me."
"Tell me the truth. You can do whatever you want, whether it is literary or martial arts. I will take it all."
Seeing that he did not say anything for a long time and stared at Ding Qianlie, Ding Ning immediately urged him unhappily.
"You said it. I hope you won't regret it."
Hearing this, Zhou Haoqian immediately showed a confident smile. Originally, he did not intend to show his martial arts, but now in order to win the beauty, he could not care about anything else.
"A man cannot go back on his words. Can you not be like a woman and be indecisive?"
Ding Ning said impatiently.
"Well, since you said so, then let's adopt the best-of-three system. The first game is the piano competition."
Zhou Haoqian showed a sly smile. Fearing that Ding Ning would refuse, he deliberately goaded him. "You said that I could tell you the truth. Now that I have told you, don't say that you don't even know how to play the piano."
Ding Qianlie had never heard that Ding Ning could play the piano, so she was full of worry. When she was about to stop him, Ding Ning leisurely said, "Okay, since I said it, I will not go back on my word. You go first. There is no harm if there is no comparison. Otherwise, after I finish playing, you will feel too inferior to touch the piano."
Arrogant!
Domineering!
Arrogant!
The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar. "He has boasted too much!"
