Chapter 495 The Duke Presents an Engagement Ring



Pulling herself back to reality, Bai Qianmo blew out the candle.

Then comes cutting the cake, which inevitably leads to a cake fight.

The noise continued until 12:30 a.m. when Bai Qianmo's phone rang.

Seeing that it was Gu Jueye calling, Bai Qianmo ran to the restroom in the private room to answer the call.

Before the other end could speak, Bai Qianmo answered the phone and spoke first.

"Mr. Gu, I'm going home right away."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, followed by a low laugh.

"Then I'll wait for you."

"Don't wait for me. If you're sleepy, go to rest early."

"I'm not sleepy, I'll wait for you."

Seeing that Gu Jueye insisted on waiting for her, Bai Qianmo felt it was inappropriate to continue wandering around outside.

After leaving the restroom, I picked up my coat and put it on, then put on my baseball cap and mask.

"You guys keep playing, I have to go now."

Su Peishan said somewhat sullenly, "The birthday boy is gone, what are we supposed to do now?"

Chen Feifei joked, "Boss, is your boyfriend urging you to go back?"

Jiang Hai glanced at the time: "It's so late, I think we should call it a day. We have a lot of work to do tomorrow."

"Then let's go together."

Everyone packed their things and left the bar.

Li Song and Chen Xiang both drove, taking several people away separately.

Bai Qianmo walked straight towards the black Mercedes-Benz driven by Rong Yi.

When she reached the car and saw that Rong Yi had gotten out, Bai Qianmo subconsciously glanced at the driver's seat.

The streetlights were dim, and there was no light inside the car either; you could only vaguely see a person sitting inside.

A hint of suspicion arose in her heart. Usually, Rong Yi would get out of the car and open the door before she even reached it. Today's behavior was very different from usual.

Bai Qianmo opened the back door and bent down to sit down.

The car lights suddenly came on, and Bai Qianmo was stunned when she saw the back of the person sitting in the driver's seat.

What are you doing here?

It was actually Gu Jueye?

Gu Jueye turned to look at Bai Qianmo: "I've come to take you home."

"What about Rongyi?"

"Let him go back first."

Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow: "So you called me just now to tell me you were waiting for me at the door?"

Gu Jueye smiled, which was his answer to the question.

Bai Qianmo smoothed her long hair, reached out and lowered the back of the front seat, then bent down and moved from the back seat to the passenger seat.

She looked at Gu Jueye with a smile.

"How long have you been waiting for me outside?"

"I had just arrived when I called you."

Bai Qianmo nodded and glanced ahead: "Huh, this doesn't seem to be the way home."

"The road is under construction over there, so we need to take another route back."

Gu Jueye's explanation sounded reasonable, and Bai Qianmo didn't think much of it.

Just then, the phone rang again.

Seeing that it was her grandfather calling, Bai Qianmo answered the phone immediately.

"Grandpa, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"How dare you say that to me? Aren't you still awake too?"

"You're getting old, you should develop the habit of going to bed early and waking up early for your health." Bai Qianmo said helplessly. Ever since the old man learned to surf the internet, he has been going to bed later and later.

Old Bai snorted lightly: "You young people today don't know how to invest in your health when you're young, and only think about health when you're old."

"Okay, what brings you to call me so late?"

Grandpa Bai coughed lightly: "My dear granddaughter, today is your 20th birthday. Grandpa wishes my dear granddaughter happiness, joy, peace and good fortune forever."

Upon hearing Bai Lao's birthday wishes, Bai Qianmo felt a sudden pang of sadness.

It turns out the old man stayed up so late to send her his blessings.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Bai Qianmo's emotions continued to rise, but Bai Lao's demeanor suddenly changed.

"By the way, I printed some posters of you. When you have time, could you sign them for me?"

"Poster?" Bai Qianmo knew that the old man was in her fan club and was constantly boosting her rankings and popularity.

However, she thought the old man just wanted to learn more about his granddaughter from another perspective. She didn't expect that the old man would even play with posters.

"If you want to see me, you can just make a phone call. Why bother with posters?"

Old Bai stammered for a while, then said, "It's nothing, just sign it for me. Okay, I'm sleepy, you should get some rest too."

Beep beep beep...

Bai Qianmo was completely bewildered when she heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone.

She was almost moved to tears just now, but now the situation left her feeling both amused and exasperated.

This way

After hanging up the phone, the old man chuckled twice and opened a small group of Bai Qianmo's fan club, which had more than a hundred members.

These are all people the old man recently met. They are all die-hard fans of Bai Qianmo. Bai Lao wants to gradually expand the influence of these die-hard fans. In addition to boosting the rankings and cheering every day, they can also fight against those haters online.

And you know what? The fighting power of these die-hard fans is truly impressive. Recently, their group of over a hundred people has already taken down several trending posts on various forums.

This group is called "Iron Egg Legion," a name that Bai Lao himself came up with.

The die-hard fans initially thought the group name was too old-fashioned and protested for a long time, but after Bai Lao's rambling, he actually convinced a group of fans.

Opening the chat box, Bai Lao slowly typed a few words and sent them.

[The poster personally signed by Momo will be mailed to you within a week.]

Less than a minute after the message was sent out, several fans were drawn out.
