Su Man marrying Xiao Beisheng shocked the entire celebrity circle of Haicheng. "Xiao Beisheng proposed to his 'white moonlight' and was rejected, which is why he married Su Man." ...
Chapter 674: Proposal
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Beisheng.
Xiao Tian, the party involved in the bet, held his breath to see whether his cousin would go to Su Man first or to his grandmother.
Xiao Beisheng glanced at everyone in confusion, and finally his gaze landed on Xiao Tian's face: "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Xiao Tian was annoyed: "Ah! This doesn't count."
Xiao Beisheng was puzzled. He walked to Su Man, took her hand, and greeted Old Madam Xiao: "Hello, Grandma."
Everyone was muttering: Did they find the old lady first, or Su Man first?
Madam Xiao smiled, and the corners of her eyes squeezed out laughter lines: "Come on, we were just talking about you."
"Me?" Xiao Beisheng glanced at Xiao Tian. "I was just saying, why are you all looking at me with such strange expressions?"
Xiao Tian was a little annoyed. "I was just about to ask you, did you go to Grandma first, or Teacher Su?"
"Tiantian and Suman made a bet, saying that when you come here, will you find me first or Suman first?" Old Madam Xiao said with a smile.
"Oh?" Xiao Beisheng didn't find a seat to sit down. Instead, he leaned next to the chair where Su Man was sitting, playing with her hands while asking, "What did you bet on?"
Someone replied: "Tiantian bet that when you come over, you will first look for Doudou's mother. Doudou's mother said that when you come over, you will first look for the old lady. If Tiantian wins, she will let Doudou's mother accompany her on vacation abroad. If Tiantian loses, she will buy Doudou's mother a bag."
"Aunt! How can you tell him directly!" Xiao Tian was anxious.
Xiao Beisheng raised his three-dimensional brows, "Of course Xiao Tian lost."
"Ah! Look at him! He's so biased. I don't accept it. This is clearly cheating."
Xiao Tian almost jumped up, causing the elders present to burst into laughter.
Someone teased her with a smile: "It's just a bag, Tiantian, it's not like you can't afford to lose."
Xiao Beisheng said, "More than one, buy a few more, and buy as many as Su Man likes."
Xiao Tian snorted angrily: "I just want Teacher Su to play with me."
Xiao Beisheng: "Your teacher Su is here to accompany me, so she has no time to accompany you."
"You are so busy every day, how do you find time to accompany Teacher Su?"
"There will be time soon." Xiao Beisheng said, turning to Su Man and said, "I was just about to ask you if you want to go on vacation soon. This season is perfect for traveling. I'll have someone take care of Doudou, so don't worry."
Before Su Man could speak, Madam Xiao interrupted, "What a coincidence! I was just about to discuss with Su Man whether Doudou could stay with me for a while. Now that you guys want to go out and have fun, you don't have to worry about hiring someone to take care of you. I'll equip Doudou with a full set of staff and facilities, so you can go without worry!"
"All other conditions are met. Now it depends on your wishes."
Su Man thought about it and felt that if she didn't have to take care of Doudou, she wouldn't have anything to do.
"That's fine." She nodded.
Xiao Beisheng happily held her hand tightly in his palm, "Then let's get ready. I'll arrange all the matters at the company, and you can pack your luggage... It's okay if you don't pack. When you get to the place, buy whatever you like and use my card. Then we can find a city you like to visit, choose a place, and I'll make the plan, or we can do it together."
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, everyone felt both relieved and emotional.
After going through so many twists and turns and hardships, they finally got together. God will eventually reward lovers.
During the meal, Xiao Beisheng sat next to Su Man.
From time to time, I would pick up some food and scoop soup for her.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Xiao Beisheng could accurately predict and get the tissue for her in advance.
There were shrimps on the table. Xiao Beisheng took an empty bowl and a bone plate, peeled a bowl full of shrimps, and finally put them all in front of Su Man.
He would take whatever Suman didn't eat or couldn't finish.
These days, Xiao Tian has become immune to Xiao Beisheng's crazy way of doting on his wife, and is no longer surprised.
She would wail twice only when the dish she wanted to pick up was snatched away by Xiao Beisheng and put into Su Man's bowl.
After the meal, Su Man chatted with Old Madam Xiao for a while. When Old Madam Xiao felt a little tired, everyone said goodbye and left.
Xiao Tian took Su Man to the mall and made a bold statement that any bag Su Man liked could be bought directly and she would pay for it.
It was her fault for losing the bet.
Xiao Beisheng had no objection, but he had to follow Su Man.
The result was that the two women, Xiao Tian and Su Man, were happily shopping hand in hand, while the two men, Xiao Beisheng and Gao Xun, followed behind them, helping them carry the large and small bags they brought for shopping.
In the end, Xiao Tian fulfilled her promise and bought a bag for Su Man. Su Man also gave Xiao Tian a set of jewelry. However, in the end, she did not let Su Man pay for it herself. Xiao Beisheng rushed to swipe the card.
As they were leaving the mall, Xiao Tian suddenly suggested, "I recently discovered a hidden gem bar. The drinks the bartender mixes are delicious, and they're all custom-made. Teacher Su, do you want to go for a drink?"
"This..." Su Man looked at the two men behind her who had been shopping for most of the day.
It is said that asking a man to accompany a woman shopping is equivalent to asking them to run a thousand meters.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Beisheng strongly agreed: "Such a treasure bar is worth a try."
Gao Xun: "I have no objection."
The atmosphere was so positive that Su Man agreed with an open mind.
The Sky Bar, as the name suggests, is a bar on the top floor of a building.
There are seats in the terrace area, and the VIP seats have excellent views. Bands and singers are invited to perform in the atrium area.
What is special is that cocktail making is improvisation.
The customer tells the bartender what style he likes, and the bartender will mix a cocktail unique to the customer based on the customer's personal preference for sweetness, flavor, and alcohol content.
Su Man ordered a custom-made drink, which was very much to her liking. She changed a few more dishes and after three or four drinks, she gradually felt a little tipsy.
She sat in the VIP viewing area, next to the glass fence, overlooking the night view of the city, feeling the cool evening breeze, and feeling comfortable and refreshed.
Su Man was drunk and wanted to empty herself. When she looked up, she found that Xiao Beisheng and Gao Xun were gone.
"Where are they?" Su Man asked Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian also shook his head, pretending not to know: "I guess he's craving a cigarette and is hiding somewhere to smoke."
"...Really? But your cousin rarely smokes these days."
Xiao Beisheng said that for the sake of her and her child's health, she would start quitting smoking.
He always does what he says.
So Suman believed him.
Suddenly, there were bursts of excited cheers and jeers from the atrium. Su Man looked over and found that the stage where the performance had just taken place had been changed:
The stage was surrounded by bouquets and balloons, a winding path was created in front of the stage with petals, and the lights changed into warm and playful orange and blue-pink tones.
Small fireworks were ignited simultaneously on both sides of the atrium, creating a dazzling display of fireworks.
The customers in the store were attracted and unconsciously gathered around the stage.
"Teacher Su, it seems like someone is proposing! Let's go over and take a look."
"Ah? But I haven't finished my drink yet..."
Before Su Man could react, Xiao Tian pulled her up and pushed her into the center of the crowd.
Amidst the smoke, Su Man vaguely saw a slender figure standing in front of the stage.
