Melodious piano music, romantic red roses, pink heart-shaped balloons, and a large LED screen projecting photos in a loop, with drones always on standby.
At the most luxurious revolving restaurant in downtown City A, a romantic marriage proposal is being planned.
"Who's proposing? Such a grand affair! They've booked the whole place for a proposal," a waitress decorating with balloons whispered gossipingly.
"Don't talk nonsense! It seems like it was Li Churan who proposed," the waiter next to her whispered.
"Li Churan! He's the president of Mengran Group. I heard he's super handsome. What lucky woman he is!"
"She seems to be an internet celebrity, a live streamer!"
"But I heard that he's already married, and his wife is some kind of rich girl, I think her surname is Ye."
"Really? Then..."
"They're here, they're here! Stop talking! The supervisor might hear and dock your pay."
Ever since Ye Ning finally signed the divorce agreement the day before yesterday, Li Churan couldn't wait to start preparing his marriage proposal to Lin Mengru.
He first spent a fortune to book the city's most famous revolving restaurant, the Fuwan International Hotel in the city center, as the location for his proposal. Then he decorated the venue with more than 10,000 red roses, a drone show, and a romantic fireworks display.
All this was to create a dreamlike proposal scene for Lin Mengru.
What he didn't expect was that Ye Ning, who had just become his ex-wife, was also staying at this hotel.
At this moment, Ye Ning was having a spa treatment at the hotel's bar, with Da Huang and Er Huang obediently lying at her feet.
Just as she was comfortably drifting off to sleep, she heard a constant buzzing of voices like mosquitoes in her ear.
"Wow! How romantic! Do you know who it is? I heard from them that it was Li Churan who proposed."
"Li Churan? I didn't expect him to be so romantic. Is it true?"
"Li Churan?!" Upon hearing this familiar name, Ye Ning snapped back to reality.
Li Churan is going to propose to Lin Mengru?!
The location was actually the hotel where she was staying.
Is this what they call a coincidence?! Or did they do it on purpose?
But since she'd run into him, how could she not go up and offer her blessings to her ex-husband and his fiancée?
At seven o'clock in the evening, as the city lights began to twinkle, everything was finally ready for Li Churan's marriage proposal.
Li Churan donned a formal suit, the bespoke tailoring accentuating his tall and handsome figure. A rare gentle smile appeared on his perpetually icy face. Everything was ready; now all that remained was to await Lin Mengru's arrival.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, Lin Mengru finally made her entrance in a black Rolls-Royce.
Looking out the car window at the envious and admiring glances and comments, Lin Mengru felt an overwhelming sense of pride.
This was absolutely the most glorious moment of her life. She was wearing a pink off-the-shoulder custom-made evening gown, her long brown curly hair was casually draped over her chest, and a diamond bracelet on her snow-white wrist sparkled.
She wasn't exceptionally beautiful, but she was incredibly pure and lovely, with a pair of dewy almond-shaped eyes, a delicate nose, and cherry-like lips that made her instantly endearing.
Moreover, she was well aware of her advantages, always appearing as a delicate little rabbit, which made countless men both love and pity her.
The black Rolls-Royce slowly pulled up beside the red carpet that had been specially prepared for Li Churan's marriage proposal.
Guests had already gathered around the perimeter of the red carpet to watch the spectacle.
"It's here! It's here! Is this the car? As expected of the president of Mengran Group, it's quite impressive."
"That should be it! The car is parked! Hmm, I can't see it!" Li Churan had already sent security guards to surround the area.
Amidst the envious and inquisitive gazes of the crowd, Lin Mengru slowly stepped out of the car. Her crystal shoes touched the soft carpet, giving her a sense of unreality.
"Ms. Lin, our CEO, Mr. Li, is waiting for you upstairs! Please come this way!" the security guard in a suit said politely.
"Okay!" Lin Mengru suppressed her excitement and nodded.
Is this day finally coming?
She never dreamed that she would end up like this.
She was an illegitimate child. Her mother was a promiscuous woman who always mingled with different wealthy men to make money, but quickly squandered it all on gambling.
She had never met her father, and she even suspected that her mother didn't know whose child she was.
She moved around with her mother like a migratory bird, constantly moving between different men's houses.
She lost her virginity very early on; the man was her rich second-generation delinquent boyfriend from middle school.
Like mother, like daughter; Lin Mengru has a chaotic private life, just like her mother.
She started living with different men in her teens, got pregnant, and was kept by a sugar daddy.
She gave birth to a child whose father was unknown before she was twenty years old.
In order to hook up with more rich men, she became a live streamer, specifically targeting the top male fan.
However, it must be said that she does have a knack for dealing with men, using her charm and coquetry to attract countless suckers to open their wallets for her. But she has never been able to find the perfect man to support her extravagant lifestyle.
She recognized Li Churan at an event.
She did date Li Churan in middle school. At that time, Li Churan's family had not yet gone bankrupt. He was handsome, had good grades, and was a popular figure in the whole school. Who wouldn't want to date him?
Being with Li Churan at that time greatly satisfied Lin Mengru's vanity.
Unfortunately, Li Churan's family went bankrupt soon after, and Li Churan became penniless. She became indifferent to him, and before she could even break up with him, Li Churan transferred schools.
