Gu Mohan's magnetic voice was heard over the phone.
At this moment, Tang Mo 'er was hugging her knees as she sat on the soft woolen carpet. In front of her was the floor-to-ceiling window and her pale face was reflected in the bright window. She wiped her tears away and smiled. "Mr Gu, where are you now?" Gu Mohan's face was filled with tears.
Gu Mohan lowered his voice and said in a gentler tone, "I have some work to do today. Be good and eat and sleep."
"Oh, then are you coming back tonight?"
Gu Mohan was silent for two seconds. "Why, do you miss me? I have to work overtime tonight. I'll go back to accompany you tomorrow, hm? "
Oh, that meant he wasn't coming back tonight.
That's right, he and Lu Qi 'er were getting engaged tonight, so there would definitely be an engagement night.
Tang Mo 'er stretched out her fair hand and held the diamond ring around her neck. "Alright, I'll leave you to your work. I'm sleepy, I'll sleep first."
With that, she hung up the phone.
At this moment, the maid walked in. "Miss Tang, are you done with the call?"
"Yes, thank you." Tang Mo 'er handed the cell phone over to the maid.
The maid retreated and closed the door. Tang Mo 'er sat alone, hugging her knees with her slender arms. She slowly buried her tiny face into her palm-sized hands and her shoulders started to tremble. The silent room was filled with the sound of suppressed and hopeless sobbing. Tang Mo' er's eyes widened. Tang Mo 'er's heart sank.
…
At the engagement banquet.
Today's engagement banquet was a gathering of the upper class. Gu Tianling was present, but the only regret was that Lu Jinwen wasn't present.
Lu Jinwen had created his own business empire at the age of 16 and became an unsurpassable legend. But after Lin Xuanji's death, he faded out of everyone's sight. Twenty years had passed, but he was still so powerful that he seemed to have never existed.
Lu Qi 'er was wearing a V-neck white chiffon dress. It was designed by a famous French designer and was adorned with sparkling diamonds. It made Lu Qi' er look exceptionally beautiful.
She was elegantly chatting with the rich ladies of the upper class. Lin Ruoxi followed behind her happily, receiving the envy and blessings of everyone present.
At this moment, a rich lady said, "Miss Lu, tonight is your engagement banquet with President Gu. Why aren't you wearing the One and Only ring?"
The One and Only ring?
Lu Qi 'er froze.
"That's right, Miss Lu, hurry up and take out the One and Only ring for us to see. Back when Madam Xuanji created DHA Diamonds, she designed many classic pieces of jewelry, but for some reason, Madam Xuanji never designed a diamond ring. The only diamond ring she designed is this One and Only ring. She can only give it to one person in her lifetime, the one and only in this world!"
"Miss Lu, President Gu must have given you the One and Only ring!" The other rich ladies chimed in excitedly.
Lu Qi 'er's face stiffened. Her fingers were empty. Gu Mohan did not give her a diamond ring.
But very quickly, she curved her red lips and said in a natural and unrestrained manner, "Tonight is just an engagement ceremony. When I marry Brother Mohan, he will put the One and Only ring on my finger."
"That's right, Miss Lu. It looks like you're going to become Mrs. Gu soon. Congratulations."
