Chapter 248: Ning Qing, Marry Me
Ning Qing saw that he taking out an exquisite purple heart shaped box, and her little heart skipped a beat. He….
Lu Shaoming looked at the girl. She appeared to be in a daze, and his dark eyes had a pampering expression in them. “Ning Qing, I prepared this box half a month ago. I had always wanted to gift it to you, but I did not get a chance to do so, when I was on the flight home, I prepared a proposal ceremony for you. I bought a yacht, and wanted to bring you on the seas to look at fireworks… but I did not know how you misunderstood. Since that is the case, there is no better time than now; it is the perfect time. I don’t want to continue waiting, I am afraid that I would miss the timing again…”
Lu Shaoming knelt down on one knee very slowly, and when he opened the heart shaped box. There was a diamond ring lying inside the box.
“Wow….” The crowd by the door were dazzled by the s.h.i.+ne of the diamond, and they all said that Young Master was low profile while being ultimately luxurious. But as for this diamond ring, it wasn’t low profile, rather, it was ultimately luxurious.
Ning Qing knew at that moment. Her movements were in a daze, and she looked at the ring as she blanked out…
She did not believe that this was something that this man would gift. With a glance, the ring looked like a crown, the ring was made out of a 20 carat heart shaped gold, and it was wrapped up on its sides with 99 small water diamonds. It was sparkling and attention grabbing.
“Ning Qing, do you like this ring? I know that all girls like jewels. 99 small water diamonds signify forever and always. The crown jewel signifies to add a crowning jewel onto love. It is what I designed by myself. It was personally crafted by Jone. In the future, you can show it off to others. This is only the one and only of its kind in the entire world.”
Everyone had heard of Jone before; he was the creator of a luxurious jeweller in Italy.
The crowd were mesmerised. Young Master Lu, if you are proposing then propose. Why would you deliberate about how your wife will show off in the future? Who would dare to compare to Madam Lu? Who would dare do so?
“Ning Qing, you understand, I have lost my memory. It could be considered my first meeting with you in America. Although it was only a brief glance, I was looking at you leave for the entire time from the upper levels. Although I did not know what I was looking at, maybe I was looking at the road that you had taken before.
“After that, in Guang Qing, you endorsed Cabbage Plume. I saw the intelligence and quick wittedness that you showed in your work. You were youthful and pa.s.sionate with regards to how you lived. I started to be unable to control my own eyes. I wanted to look at you. After I saw you, I wanted to look at you more, like I was bewitched.
“At that time, I still did not know that you were my wife. I guessed that there was someone living inside your heart. I was jealous and envious, and I could not control my emotions. I felt like I was acting crazily, but when you chased after my car, I closed my eyes and thought to forget it all. I treated it as what I owed you from a previous life. If you were searching for someone’s shadow on me, then it would be okay for me to be a replacement, as long as you were by my side.
“When I was dating you, I felt that my heart was full, and I wanted to be with you forever. I would be upset when you ignored me to concentrate on work. I could not look at you pouting, and I could not handle you acting cute towards me. It felt like I was facing an exquisite porcelain doll, and if I exerted too much strength, I was afraid that you would be in pain. If I was eased up on strength, I would be unable to control myself.
“Ning Qing, although we have been interacting for a short period of 3 months, I love you! This feeling of love came naturally with me, and it never ever stopped, even for one moment.
“Ning Qing, marry me, be my wife. Let’s grow old together.”
Ning Qing used her small hand to cover her mouth. Sparkling tears were making her vision blur, and she could not clearly see the man that was kneeling down before her.
Although she already knew he was great, this man was now the most handsome and mesmerizing he could be.
Did he love her?
She was so lost and depressed in the past. She did not understand him keeping his distance from her, and her heart was hurt deeply by him ignoring her and repeatedly hurting her time and time again.
But after hearing his words, she knew and understood him; he had always loved her.
She had tripped and come upon obstacles in her path to love. He was also struggling furiously with his own demons, over these past three months, they had both been suffering in pain.
But, he was like her. He never left! He wanted to accompany her and grow old together.
These were really the most romantic words on this earth.
“Ning Qing, what are you doing in a daze? Quickly agree to him.”
Seeing that Ning Qing was in a silly daze and only knew how to cry, Yin Shuiling and Xia Xiaofu were both equally anxious, and could not help but loudly remind her.
Ning Qing looked to her side with tears blurring her vision. There was a crowd of black haired people by the door. All the elites and upper cla.s.s socialites of T city were here, as well as each of the 28 media outlets of T city…
Ning Qing somewhat understood the man’s thoughts. A man wanted to gift the best love to a woman, and it was — status.
He was telling the entire world that she was his Madam Lu. She already was in the past, but her t.i.tle was even stronger now.
Time could not stop his pampering love for her, and he was unwilling to separate with her. That feeling was getting more and more intense with each pa.s.sing day.
These people’s faces bore an expression of envy, deep emotional movement, and congratulations. Her best friends Yin Shuiling and Xia Xiaofu were present. They were witnessing her greatest moment of bliss.
As for her mother in law, Zhou Zhilei, Kong Lan….
She decided to temporarily ignore their disregard. Come on; let the jealousy be more intense from now on.
“Okay.” Ning Qing nodded forcefully and said, “Lu Shaoming, I agree to what you said.”
Lu Shaoming’s dark s.h.i.+ning eyes were like the stars in the sky, and he slowly placed the crown jewel ring on the ring finger of her right hand. He stood up and took the girl into his embrace.
“….Wifey,” he gently murmured as he kissed her hair.
After hearing the word “wifey” from him for the first time in so long, Ning Qing’s tears flowed down without control. She clasped her fingers together in a fist to punch him, but the words that she had out of her mouth were thankful. “Lu Shaoming, thank you for not…leaving me behind.”
“Young Master Lu, kiss, kiss!” Yin Shuiling started the lead for everyone to start cheering.
Ning Qing brushed her mucus and tears onto the man’s expensive s.h.i.+rt, and she buried her small head shyly in his chest, not allowing him to kiss her.
But the man lowered his head and searched for the tip of her lips, then kissed her deeply.
Ning Qing’s small, white hand tugged on his s.h.i.+rt. Her senses were filled with the smell of his health and his crisp masculine scent, and she lightly moved her small head and let him kiss her entirely.
Woo.
He was kissing her with so much strength.
Her thighs softened, and she immediately became numb, and in the next moment, her world turned totally upside down. The man picked her up horizontally. He said, “Wifey, let’s go home.”
“Wow…” The thunderous applause rang out from the side of the door.
“Ay, Shao Ming.” Ning Qing said anxiously. She shyly looked at the man’s handsome and mesmerizing features and said in a soft voice, “You were not here just now, Xiaofu helped me.”
Lu Shaoming lifted his brows, and understood her meaning. His dark eyes scanned towards the side of the door and his gaze stopped on the Lu couple, and he nodded his head lightly towards them.
The Lu couple were shocked as they said, “Young Master Lu.”
Xia Xiaofu was relieved. With Lu Shaoming nodding his head, her parents would not have any trouble. Recently the relations between her and the Ou family were stiff, and she had made her parents worry. She did not wish for her parents to get into trouble because of her.
That would be really unfilial to them.
Lu Shaoming held onto Ning Qing and left with great strides.
…
While waiting for them to disappear from their sight, the crowd did not withdraw their gaze. Yin Shuiling placed her palms together. Her tone was lazy while she smiled and said, “Aiyo, just now Young Master Lu has come together with someone. We still misunderstood Young Master Lu. We didn’t think that Young Master Lu would be so infatuated with Ning Qing. Even though he lost his memory, they are still both in love. I am so moved.”
A journalist joined the conversation saying, “That’s right! The way Young Master Lu proposed was really more interesting than an idol drama. The headlines tomorrow will all be about Director Ning again.”
Yin Shuiling patted the shoulder of the journalist by her side. Her eyes were intentionally sweeping towards the direction of Zhou Zhilei as she said, “You need to write it properly. Look at how Young Master Lu pampers Ning Qing. They are blissful as a family. There is a little Young Master Lu in her stomach, making others jealous. If that someone still wants her dignity, if she knows how to write the words honour and shame, then that person should not dream naively. It would be best for her to go as far away as possible.
Kong Lan felt her entire body explode. Yin Shuiling’s mouth was evil, and she had used all the words that they’d directed at Ning Qing back to them again.
No wonder they were best friends.
Kong Lan hated that she could not go up to rip Yin Shuiling apart, but looking at Yin Muchen standing beside Yin Shuiling, she feared the repercussions. She clenched her teeth at last and said, “Miss Yin, who are you talking about?”
Yin Shuiling directly ignored the sour and evil expression on Kong Lan’s face. She stretched out her small hand to tidy her red dress. Her words were slow and cold, “Oh, who has a guilty conscience? I would be talking about that person. Actually, I am also quite curious. Who is the cheap knockoff that Young Master Lu is unable to shake off? He was talking about that person before.”
Yin Shuiling had a smile while she spoke, and she turned to leave with Yin Muchen.
“You!” Kong Lan was furious beyond words.
“Mum!” Zhou Zhilei stretched out her hand to hold onto Kong Lan’s elbow, and she shook her head meaning — Forget it, they have already lost too much dignity today.
Kong Lan lifted her gaze to look around her. She could only see those journalists and elites all look to the floor. They were smiling while they chatted amongst themselves. She wanted to explode, but those people quickly dispersed.
Kong Lan was displeased. It was an extreme humiliation.
Zhou Zhilei’s hand that was by her side was kneaded into a fist. Her long fingernails were pressing into her palm, but she did not feel any pain.
Today, all of her pride and dignity had been cruelly stepped on by Lu Shaoming. From tomorrow onwards, she would be the joke of T City.
Song Yajing’s expression was also bad. Those words that Lu Shaoming had said were making her more uncomfortable with every pa.s.sing minute. She finally understood that her son was grown, and she could not make him stay by her side anymore.
“Madam Zhou, Zhilei, today was son Shaoming’s fault. Don’t worry, Shaoming is only momentarily bewitched. I believe he will be able to wake up from his trance.”
“Wake up? Madam Lu, will Young Master Lu really wake up?” Kong Lan asked.
“This…” Song Yajing did not have confidence.
At this moment, a bodyguard walked over and bent down by Song Yajing’s ear to whisper softly.
Song Yajing speedily bid farewell saying, “Madam Zhou, Zhilei, we will meet again on another day. I have something to take care of, so I will be leaving.”
Song Yajing departed.
“Madam Lu!” Kong Lan called out to her twice, but Song Yajing did not even turn her head once. She boarded a luxury vehicle.
“Hmph!” Kong Lan swung her sleeve, directly held onto Zhou Zhilei’s hand, and walked away in a fit.
Observing that the crowd had left, Xia Xiaofu said to her own parents, “Dad, Mum, let us go home too.”
“Xiao Fu.” Ou Ze held onto Xia Xiaofu’s slim arm and said, “Let us talk for a moment.”
Xia Xiaofu shook off his hand and said, “The things that should be said, I have already told you a number of times, I don’t want to quarrel with you again. I hope you can accept the fact that we have already broken up.”
“Xiao Fu, do you really have to be so cruel and heartless? Just because of Ou Luo Xi? What is so good about Ou Luo Xi? He s.n.a.t.c.hed his own brother’s fiancée! He is shameless and despicable.”
“Ou Ze, I don’t allow you to scold him. He doesn’t like me. I have chased after him for two whole months, and he does not even spare me a glance. I’m the one with a problem, Ou Ze, let go of me.”
Xia Xiaofu left with her parents.
