She truly wanted to be in a passionate romance, especially with an outstanding man like He Mingrun.
However, just as she was about to fall in love, the river god told her, "Do not throw trash into the river."
So, she essentially ruined it for herself.
"I'm sorry!" Meng Yuan lowered her head deeply to apologize.
He Mingrun looked at her with a hint of amusement and asked, "Yuan Yuan, why are you apologizing?"
Meng Yuan slowly looked at him. "Because I got drunk last night." Her voice was very soft and embarrassed.
Her small hands twisted together forcefully. Jiang Nuan, that darn girl, why didn't she take her away?
She had to suffer such humiliation!
Seeing the expression on her face, He Mingrun's feelings were complicated.
He decided not to evade any longer and asked, "Yuan Yuan, may I ask you a question?"
At least if he knew her feelings, he could make a better judgment.
"Go ahead."
After speaking, Meng Yuan lowered her head again. She truly had no face to see anyone.
He Mingrun looked at her deeply and said, "Yuan Yuan, look at me."
Meng Yuan hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her head to look at his handsome face. He looked very serious, his eyes clear and distinct, deep as the four seas. At this moment, He Mingrun seemed a little different from the He Mingrun she knew.
"Yuan Yuan, do you like me?"
"Yuan Yuan, do you like me?" The question suddenly exploded in Meng Yuan's ears.
She stared sharply at He Mingrun. His gaze was filled with anticipation, faintly shimmering with a flowing light. Meng Yuan came back to her senses, clenched her delicate fists, and punched He Mingrun's chest forcefully.
Looking at him angrily, she said, "He Mingrun, do you even understand a woman's heart? How could any girl feel shy enough to answer you when you ask so directly?"
He Mingrun looked at her shy, pretty face and quickly grasped the small fist she was trying to withdraw. He said, "Then if you're too shy to say it, I'll say it. Yuan Yuan, I like you. I've liked you since the first time I saw you. It was love at first sight."
Meng Yuan: "..."
Ahhhh!!!
I'm going to die!!
Love at first sight, she was so touched!
She felt like a frying pan, wishing she could smash herself to see if she was dreaming.
He Mingrun looked at her dazed expression and felt very nervous. Would his confession in this situation seem insincere?
No flowers, no romantic setting, not grand at all. It truly lacked sincerity.
Meng Yuan felt as if she were drunk. He Mingrun had confessed to her.
She saw herself transformed into a tiny figure, dancing on a red heart.
Seeing her silent for so long, He Mingrun grew more nervous.
He quickly spoke to explain, "Yuan Yuan, I know my confession right now isn't romantic at all, but I swear, I'm sincere."
Although the setting wasn't the most romantic, it was the most opportune moment for a confession.
Meng Yuan finally came back to her senses, looking at the still expectant He Mingrun, and said with a smile, "No, no, no. Look at the first light of dawn, it's so warm. And this room is very cozy. Most importantly, you are very gentle."
"Furthermore, I don't need a romantic setting, I don't need flowery words, and I certainly don't need attention-grabbing actions. The only thing I like is you, every bit of love from the bottom of my heart."
"And, in my opinion, you are the most suitable boyfriend to be by my side."
Meng Yuan's voice became softer and softer. She was ecstatically happy!
She was in love!
One drunken night had actually helped them both break down their barriers.
The moment she hugged him after getting off the plane, she had decided to open her heart to him.
Now it was He Mingrun's turn to be surprised. Had he... had his confession succeeded?
"Yuan Yuan, did my confession succeed?" He Mingrun was instantly so excited that he became foolish. He stared blankly at Meng Yuan, his eyes filled with bright light.
Meng Yuan: "..." Why didn't she record this unique moment?
She felt like they were both silly fools.
Meng Yuan smiled and looked at him quietly, "Mr. He Mingrun."
He Mingrun quickly nodded, "Yuan Yuan, I'm here!" He Mingrun clenched his fists, telling himself this wasn't a dream.
"Mr. He Mingrun, as a return courtesy, being a mundane person, I like money and heartfelt gestures, as well as the gentle you. Be my boyfriend."
Cherish the present, love without a afterlife.
Her days had always been bland. Now she had finally found something that suited her taste.
To hell with reserve, to hell with self-doubt. Wouldn't it be better to keep more gentleness and love for herself?
"Be my boyfriend." This gentle sentence echoed softly in He Mingrun's ears. It was the most beautiful thing he had ever heard in his life.
"Ahhh..." He Mingrun stood up excitedly, then suddenly pounced on Meng Yuan and kissed her.
Now she was his girlfriend, He Mingrun, and he could hold back no longer.
Jiang Nuan left the wellness center and went to her grandfather's house. Grandpa Jiang knew Jiang Nuan was coming and intended to keep Jiang Mu Yan away.
Meanwhile, Jiang Mu Yan also wanted to find out Mu Jiu Chen's whereabouts from her grandfather. Seeing that the old man was in a good mood today, she smiled and asked, "Grandpa, are you well acquainted with Ninth Master?"
Grandpa Jiang's gaze flickered, and he smiled as he asked, "Why do you suddenly remember to ask about Mu Jiu Chen?"
Jiang Mu Yan feigned a shy expression. If it weren't for her granduncle, she might truly not deserve Mu Jiu Chen.
But as long as she possessed her granduncle's shares and company, she would be the most mysterious female tycoon in Modu.
Sufficiently worthy of the heavenly prodigy Mu Jiu Chen!
"Grandpa, all the women in the world want to marry Mu Jiu Chen. I also want to meet him."
The old man knew what was on her mind and chuckled, "Matters of the heart cannot be obtained simply by meeting someone. If you want to meet him, let Jiang Wei take you. He's going to Mu Jiu Chen's company today. I just don't know if you'll be able to see him."
"Wow! Grandpa, then I'll go find Uncle Jiang." Jiang Mu Yan didn't waste any more time and ran back to her room to change.
The old man sent a message to Jiang Wei. Not long after, he watched Jiang Wei leave with Jiang Mu Yan.
Ten minutes later, the housekeeper respectfully welcomed Jiang Nuan in and escorted her to the old man's study.
"Grandpa." Jiang Nuan walked in with a smile. Facing her closest grandfather, a hint of warmth appeared on her usually cool face.
"Nuan Nuan, you're here." The old man smiled warmly and said, "Come, Nuan Nuan, Grandpa happens to have something to discuss with you. Sign these documents first."
Jiang Nuan looked at them and asked her grandfather curiously, "What are these documents?"
Grandpa Jiang smiled and said, "These are all of Grandpa's assets. After Grandpa, there are still younger brothers and sisters who have been plotting against Grandpa's fortune. Over the years, Grandpa has helped them and given them what he should. What do I owe them? Now Grandpa is transferring all these assets to your name."
If anything were to happen to him, he would be at ease knowing Nuan Nuan had these assets. He never ignored the power of money. He was a successful businessman and understood the principle.
Jiang Nuan: "!!!"
What did she just hear?
