Chapter 498 - 497: The Proposal Plan
The time quickly approached ten o’clock at night. At this moment, Tang Qiqi suddenly walked over to Wu Mengting’s seat. Since they seated separately, they hadn’t said much, but today Tang Qiqi seemed a bit unusual.
"Mengting, I want to go out for a walk. Can you accompany me for a lap around the playground?" Tang Qiqi asked.
"Oh? Qiqi, what’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Wu Mengting was a bit worried when her best friend asked her like that.
"No, I just feel a bit stuffy. Walking with me will make it better." Tang Qiqi was clearly not good at lying. As soon as she said a couple of sentences, her face turned a bit red.
However, Wu Mengting was too naive and didn’t notice: "Sure, then I won’t read anymore. I’ll read tomorrow. Hehe."
Holding hands, the two walked out of the classroom. At this time, there were only a few people left in the classroom, one of whom was Zhao Lei.
"Call to the boss, sister-in-law is on the move, everyone get in position!"
"Received!"
On the playground, Chen Tianlong had already prepared everything. He was wearing a very stylish Korean suit, looking a bit like a South Korean oppa. His hair was styled by Tang Bing, with quite a bit of hair wax, making it very impressive.
For some reason, Wu Mengting was dressed very appropriately today, in a white short dress with shiny black hair casually draped over her shoulders, looking very youthful and beautiful, like a fairy.
The most crucial point was that Wu Mengting was not wearing flat shoes today, but slightly heeled high heels. This dress paired with high heels made her look like a princess, perfectly matching Chen Tianlong’s suit.
"Qiqi, why do you suddenly feel stuffy? Do you want to see the school doctor?" Wu Mengting asked after walking for a while, noticing the playground was dimly lit, which made her a bit worried with just the two girls walking on it.
"Haha, no need. A walk will be enough to feel better." Tang Qiqi said, pulling Wu Mengting’s hand leading to the sports ground, fearing Wu Mengting would run away.
She had promised Chen Tianlong, and not completing the task would be truly letting him down.
Although Wu Mengting felt it was a bit odd, since Tang Qiqi had been her best friend for many years, she wouldn’t harm her, so she just smiled slightly, and the two quickly walked towards the playground.
They walked and walked until they reached the center of the track, and then suddenly seven or eight people came toward them, making Wu Mengting feel a bit wary. There hadn’t been anyone just now, how did they appear suddenly?
However, under the dim streetlights, Wu Mengting glanced to the side and saw someone sitting in the center of the football field, although she couldn’t see clearly who it was.
And there was another one near the sandpit.
This discovery made Wu Mengting cautious, feeling that tonight was rather strange.
"Qiqi, maybe we shouldn’t walk, I feel a bit uneasy." Wu Mengting couldn’t help but say.
"Haha, no, I think it’s very normal, nothing wrong." Tang Qiqi laughed faintly.
But not saying was better. Once Tang Qiqi said this, it was a giveaway. Wu Mengting knew her best friend well, who was the most timid person. Now even Wu Mengting herself felt a bit scared, yet Tang Qiqi reversed it by reassuring her, indicating that something fishy was definitely going on.
Just as Wu Mengting was deep in thought, the group of people suddenly surrounded them, startling Wu Mengting.
"Snap!"
Someone snapped their fingers, and with the help of Yang Fan, Zhao Lei, and Tang Bing, the candles around were quickly lit up. The rhythmically lighting candles slowly surrounded Wu Mengting and Tang Qiqi.
In less than two minutes, two hundred candles were lit, covering half of the football field, forming a gigantic heart shape.
But that wasn’t all. Another snap of the fingers was heard.
Wu Mengting instinctively looked up, and in front of her, eight people walked over at once. Among them was a handsome guy in a Korean suit with strikingly styled hair, who looked somewhat familiar.
She squinted her eyes instinctively, then immediately covered her mouth, dumbfounded.
Chen Tianlong!
Just as Wu Mengting was still in disbelief, an explosive mechanical dance track started playing from a phone. The next moment, Chen Tianlong, along with the other seven people, began dancing rhythmically.
This sight left Wu Mengting completely amazed, and at this moment, she finally understood.
The gigantic heart shape, the impressive mechanical dance, it was all meticulously arranged by Chen Tianlong, and she was so moved she was about to cry.
"Qiqi, that’s Chen Tianlong, it’s really Chen Tianlong!"
"Hehe, it is!"
Tang Qiqi replied with a smile.
At that moment, Wu Mengting forgot about Tang Qiqi deceiving her and immersed herself in the dance.
Chen Tianlong occasionally appeared in front of Wu Mengting, gently touching her pretty face, then retreating to continue dancing along with the others.
One dance was completed.
Chen Tianlong, holding a large bouquet of flowers, knelt on one knee, holding the already prepared engagement ring, and reached out.
"Mengting, will you marry me?"
Wu Mengting’s eyes widened. This moment was unexpected; Chen Tianlong was proposing to her. Oh my God! Is this real?
Wu Mengting was stunned, not quite believing this moment was real, thinking she was dreaming, she quickly pinched her arm, and as a result, tears flowed from the pain.
Chen Tianlong was puzzled and then chuckled bitterly: "Mengting, I’m asking you, will you marry me?"
"Put it on for me!"
Wu Mengting’s reply stunned Chen Tianlong, who immediately responded, quickly placing the ring on Wu Mengting’s left hand’s middle finger.
"Hehe, consider it a silent agreement." Chen Tianlong said, taking Wu Mengting’s small hand and planting a kiss.
At this moment, a hundred fireworks simultaneously launched into the sky, an incredibly spectacular sight.
This scene almost made Wu Mengting’s heart leap out; disregarding appearances, she threw herself into Chen Tianlong’s embrace. Chen Tianlong held her tightly, and they looked at the fireworks in the sky and made a wish.
The crowd sensibly withdrew quietly; within a few minutes, only the two of them were left on the entire playground. The surrounding fireworks had completely dissipated. In the center of two hundred candles forming a heart shape, Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting shared the most heartfelt kiss.
This moment determined their destiny and heralded a looming ordeal.
Now that Chen Tianlong had a partner, he had to start his life plans. From this moment on, it wasn’t just about protecting Wu Mengting, but also planning for their future. After all, to stand undefeated in this city, one must create their own success.
The weekend quickly arrived. For Wu Mengting, Chen Tianlong had set his goals. Investigating the Jade Pendant would be postponed for now. After all, having just emerged from prison, engaging in conflict with the Mo Family would easily lead to trouble.
So, Chen Tianlong formulated a long-term plan, taking one step at a time to slowly bring down the Mo Family. To bring down the Mo Family, he had to dismantle their peak corporation, and that meant starting from the economic front.
