Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The maid hesitated for a little while, but since Tang Mo’er had behaved well for the past few days and she was the young master’s beloved, the maid handed over her cell phone to Tang Mo’er. “Miss Tang, I’ll lend you my cell phone.”
“Thank you.”
With a few swipes and taps, Tang Mo’er dialed Qi Xi’s phone number.
The ringtone sounded and Qi Xi picked up the phone, “Hello, who is this?”
“Hello, Qi Xi, it’s me.”
“Ah, Mo’er!” Qi Xi shrieked into the phone, “What are you doing now? Why haven’t you contacted me! You just disappeared into thin air! I’ve been so worried since I couldn’t get a hold of you. Gu Mohan and Lu Qi’er are getting engaged tonight!”
Tang Mo’er was stunned.
What?
“Mo’er, the internet is covering the marriage between the Gu’s and Lu’s. The engagement tonight has an impressive guest list, all the wealthiest and most influential members of high society will be present and I’m not exaggerating when I saw this will be the greatest event in Karghalik to date. Gu Mohan’s father, Gu Tianling and Lu Qi’er’s father, Lu Jinwen will both appear at the same time in Karghalik. Give me a second, I’ll send you the details.”
In mere seconds, Tang Mo’er’s tiny face drained of all color and went pale, as pale as a sheet of white paper. Her beautiful eyes went blank and emotionless, all she could hear was a voice telling her about Gu Mohan and Lu Qi’er’s engagement, and then a million different voices telling her the same thing.
But, it wasn’t supposed to happen like that.
How would this be?
Only yesterday, he had gifted her with a diamond ring, he had confessed his love to her and proposed. She... she had only just agreed to his proposal...
How?
No...
Something wasn’t right. Drawing on her memory, she recalled that he gave her a diamond ring, but he didn’t kneel down or even mention anything about a proposal.
The proposal was mentioned by her, and the thing about being a fiancé was also mentioned by her. Gu Mohan... he hadn’t said a thing. She had said it all herself.
He had given her half of a proposal.
But she had imagined the other half by her own.
“Ha, haha.” Letting out a coarse laugh, it felt rough and sarcastic, even to her own ears. Looking up out of habit, she couldn’t stop the caustic laugh that erupted out from her lips. All she could feel was the wetness of her cheeks, as hot tears fell from her eyes.
With her fingertips trembling, she dialed a familiar number, the melodious ringtone sounded once before the phone call was picked up.
“Hello.”
