"......"

Forgot, forgot...

How can you forget about this!

Liu Yan and Lin Miaomiao were completely stunned; they never expected things to develop this way.

Chen Mo was also stunned.

She still thinks her brother is planning to propose at the restaurant that night, and she's even written down lines in her notes to mock him for getting countered.

As a result, it seems her brother inexplicably won without any effort?

After a long period of frozen atmosphere, Liu Yan was the first to react.

"Call him out again right now!"

Liu Yan felt the baby in her belly kick her twice in anger. She waved her hand at Liang Zhirou speechlessly, "Zhirou, you can go change into your dress. We'll find a restaurant to put on flowers, and then say you disappeared while you were eating, and trick Chen Lu into coming back."

That dress was one that she and Lin Miaomiao had specially chosen for Liang Zhirou. It looked almost exactly like a wedding dress, making it perfect for a proposal.

She had been contacting Liang Zhirou to urge her to change into her dress before proposing, but she never expected that Liang would forget about proposing because she was having so much fun with her boyfriend.

"Huh? Oh..."

Liang Zhirou nodded; she was mentally prepared for the proposal today.

If we give up now, who knows when we'll be able to muster the courage again?

One should press on with one effort, but the momentum wanes with the second, and so on... I can't think about it anymore.

She's a little hesitant now.

"What are you standing there for? Go on!" Lin Miaomiao bit her lower lip, both angry and amused, and pushed her.

Liang Zhirou quickly ran away. The clothing store was very close by; she could get there in just a few minutes if she ran.

Watching the girl's retreating figure, Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but smile and sigh.

This girl is exactly the kind of girl you can invite out for a day of fun, with all sorts of delicious food and amusement parks, and then happily go home together, only to remember that you were planning to confess your feelings to her when you reach the door and take out your keys.

She's undeniably adorable, but now, as her best friend, she's truly having a stroke.

"I remember there's a Western restaurant nearby..."

Liu Yan pinched her chin and suddenly said.

Lin Miaomiao pondered for a moment, "Oh right, Zhirou just said her phone was about to run out of battery."

"Didn't she say there's still over ten percent left? We can definitely check the information in time. Just let her know as soon as we've booked the place."

......

Inside a black Mercedes parked on the side of the road.

Jiang Chao rolled down the car window, looked at the Ferris wheel in the distance, flicked some cigarette ash out the window, and asked curiously:

"If you change your proposal method, then all these fireworks will have been a waste of money?"

Chen Lu slowly shook his head, "It's not a waste of money. I'll give it to Liang Zhirou as a gift on her birthday. Or I can sell it to you at a 10% discount as a friend's price, and you can show it to your wife."

"You bastard, isn't the second sentence the important one?"

He spat at Chen Lu and then asked, "Want to grab something to eat tonight?"

Chen Lu sat in the passenger seat, looking thoughtfully out the window. A few raindrops had appeared on the window, hanging like dewdrops.

After thinking for a moment, he looked down and took out his phone again. "I'll contact the heads of those investment companies and see if we can have dinner together tonight."

What's the point of two grown men eating? They might as well do something productive.

He was just about to look for his contact when he suddenly saw a message from Lin Miaomiao.

Lin Miaomiao: "We were eating together, but Zhirou has disappeared. Please come and help us find her."

Chen Lu was stunned for a moment, "Where are you?"

Lin Miaomiao: "It's right next to a Western restaurant near the amusement park! Come quick, I'll send you the location, we can't get in touch with her!"

Jiang Chao, standing next to him, was staring at his phone like a turtle peeking out. Chen Lu snapped out of his daze, saw him like that, slapped him hard, and said, "What are you doing driving? Stop standing there!"

"Be careful, it might be a trap."

Jiang Chao was speechless. Chen Lu was such a smart person, but when he heard that Liang Zhirou was in trouble, his intelligence seemed to drop sharply.

Doesn't she realize that Lin Miaomiao has nothing better to do than eat near an amusement park? It's so far from the city center, and that guy didn't even go to the amusement park today.

"My son is clever; I wish I had a son like Jiang Erdan."

Chen Lu gave a thumbs up and immediately called Liang Zhirou.

It turned out that the call didn't go through.

Without giving it much thought, Chen Lu decided to have Jiang Chao drive to the location Lin Miaomiao had posted and take a look first.

Upon arriving at the destination, he didn't even have the patience to help Jiang Chao find a parking spot; he simply got out of the car and left.

Chen Lu walked into the store and saw the candles and flowers arranged in a heart shape. Then he looked at the three cunning advisors and his heart sank.

Damn, he knew it!

Lin Miaomiao actually dared to play him...

The salary is still too high.

Just as he was about to complain, he saw Lin Miaomiao staring blankly at him. "Zhirou is missing."

"Stop fishing, stop fishing, I've already taken the bait."

Chen Lu grinned speechlessly. How did this guy get so into acting?

Never mind, he'll kneel down as soon as Liang Zhirou appears.

As long as he kneels fast enough, this scene is set up specifically for him.

Lin Miaomiao's breathing became a little rapid, "No... Zhirou is really missing. I made many calls on your way here, but I couldn't get in touch with her."

Chen Lu's thoughts came to an abrupt halt.

"...You're not lying to me?"

"We lied to you, no, we just lied to you. Zhirou is really gone! She went to change her clothes, and she hasn't come back yet..."

Chen Lu didn't say anything, but made another call.
