The next day, Lu Anran was abruptly woken up by the alarm clock.
She slept too late last night and was still sleepy as she stood in the bathroom brushing her teeth.
For the sake of safety, she didn’t drive and took a taxi instead to go to work.
Suffering lack of sleep and a headache, she rubbed her temples and went into the office. As soon as she opened the drawer to find a painkiller, she heard a loud noise in the corridor.
Lu Anran looked up suspiciously and looked towards the door. She saw Cheng Zhi walking in a white suit with a bouquet of red roses in his hand. He knelt in front of her in front of her without waiting for her to speak.
Lu Anran was startled and almost fell off her chair. “Cheng Zhi, get up quickly. What are you doing?”
Cheng Zhi didn’t move. He put the bouquet aside, took out a diamond ring, and held it in front of her. “Anran, marry me.”
Lu Anran froze.
Did he just ask her to marry him?
It was strange…
“Cheng Zhi!” Lu Anran took a step back. “Don’t do this. We have broken up.”
Cheng Zhi suddenly looked at her with a wounded expression. “We were still sleeping together the night before. When did we break up? Everyone is saying that you are someone’s woman, a mistress, but I don’t believe it. For today’s marriage proposal, I picked up my parents from my hometown. Anran, don’t make such a joke with me.”
Lu Anran noticed an old couple was standing by the door. Their faces were shocked, and their eyes were fixed on her.
She suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Cheng Zhi’s parents were both farmers, but the old couple had fair skin and didn’t have the ruggedness of farmers.
She composed herself and asked calmly, “Cheng Zhi, why are you doing this? And when did I sleep with you?”
“Did you forget? After you got off work the night before, we went to your dormitory together, and then we…”
Cheng Zhi didn’t continue, but half-finished words were even more fascinating.
More and more people watched the excitement, and the office soon became crowded.
“That’s strange. I heard that men wouldn’t admit what happened after they put on their pants. I didn’t expect the reverse today.”
“When you have lived for quite some time, you eventually encounter everything. I heard that this Doctor Lu was taken care of by a powerful boss. Of course, she dares not admit this.”
“No wonder Dean Huang protected her so much. She’s playing with the old and the young. This woman is really worse than a man.”
Lu Anran heard what they were saying about her. She narrowed her eyes, suddenly smiled, and took Cheng Zhi’s hand. “Congratulations, you passed the test.”
This time, it was Cheng Zhi’s turn to be confused.
What did that mean?
Did she agree?
Then how would the next scene be played?
Lu Anran didn’t give him time to think about it and stretched out her hand to pull him up. “Since the marriage has been agreed, shouldn’t I prepare for the engagement next?”
Cheng Zhi replied, “Ugh, yes.”
“There is no need to choose a special day. I think this weekend is a good day.”
Cheng Zhi said, “Isn’t it too rushed?”
Lu Anran observed his expression and continued, “It’s no rush at all. There are still a few days left. It doesn’t have to be too extravagant. Just set up a few tables in my house, then invite colleagues and necessary relatives and friends in the courtyard to be witnesses.”
At this point, she looked at the crowd of onlookers. “I’m engaged to Cheng Zhi this weekend. Everyone is welcome to come and watch the ceremony.”
Everyone was speechless.
They haven’t even finished enjoying the drama yet, but why had the tables suddenly turned?
