Chapter 2043: Actually Asked For Her Hand In Marriage
When he’d spoken up till this point, Guan Hao took out the ring. He opened the box and placed it in front of her. “Yuqian, give me a chance. I want to be a family with you and give yuan Bao a complete home. Marry me, okay?”
“…”
She suddenly saw a bright diamond ring. Xiao Yuqian was shocked but also already understood what was going on. It turned out Guan Hao didn’t wear a suit for a blind date but, instead, to propose.
He actually asked for her hand in marriage?
Sigh… what a headache!
It wasn’t that she never considered Guan Hao before. Instead, she always told herself in her heart, why not just put up with it and be with Guan Hao?
However, there would always be another voice in her heart that opposed it. No. If it is a person I don’t like, I won’t be able to accept it, even reluctantly.
After countless careful deliberations, in the end, she could only define Guan Hao as:
Colleague, friend, a good partner, a male confidant.
Apart from these things, she had no way of giving him any other t.i.tles.
It could be said that the relations.h.i.+p between her and Guan Hao was more than friends but less than lovers.
There was an invisible ditch that couldn’t be seen, couldn’t be touched, but also couldn’t be pa.s.sed over no matter what.
“Forget it, Guan Hao. I already said it before. I am already unable to accept a new relations.h.i.+p. Thank you for your love. I’m sorry, but I have no way of accepting this surprise.”
Xiao Yuqian pushed the ring back to him and spoke very apologetically.
Guan Hao had already expected there would be such an ending. His heart overflowed with an agonizing feeling. He swept his eyes over to look at the rejected ring and a hidden hurt appeared slightly on his expression.
However, he was only desolated for a short while. He lifted his head again and smiled. “I know I am not outstanding enough. That’s why I am not good enough to touch your heart. Just wait. I will continue to work hard. One of these days, I will put this ring on your finger.”
Guan Hao took back the ring and it was as if none of this had ever happened.
“But why should you do that?”
Xiao Yuqian felt that he was basically wasting his time on her. She really wanted to wake him up. Wouldn’t it be better if he went to find some other lady?
There was an abundance of good women in the world. Why would he waste precious time on a single mother like her?
If a person placed a lot of effort into an insignificant endeavor, it would be very hard to pull themselves out of it.
Xiao Yuqian knew saying too much right now was useless. She didn’t forget the official reason why she came to see Guan Hao. “Guan Hao, the reason I wanted to see you is actually about Ma Haodong’s problem.”
When Guan Hao heard Ma Haodong’s name, he frowned subconsciously. He instinctively rejected this topic.
Xiao Yuqian lifted her head to look at him and continued to say, “We are rus.h.i.+ng to help him with his PR. The first step is to announce to the public he is already a celebrity at Jingyue Entertainment.”
What did she say?
She was already willing to accept Ma Haodong joining Jingyue Entertainment?
What did this show?
It showed that she was already willing to give Ma Haodong a chance?
When Guan Hao thought of this, it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured all over him. His entire body was surrounded by a chilliness.
As her most considerate friend, Guan Hao needed to remind her, “Yuqian, is it because of him that you cannot accept me? Can you be more rational and clearly see this person’s character? Besides giving you trouble and hurting you, what else does he know how to do?”
Xiao Yuqian was thinking about work but Guan Hao did not understand. He thought she was planning on forgiving Ma Haodong.
“It is not because of this. I am talking about work right now. Don’t mix the two things together.”
Xiao Yuqian explained the reason.
The anger in Guan Hao’s heart rose up straight away and he asked, “Yuqian, don’t tell me that you plan on accepting him again?”
“I never said I wanted to accept him. Group leader Guan, isn’t your reaction a bit too much?!”
