In the summer of 1985, Xia Qiu finally finished her studies in Gangcheng and graduated as an auditor. The school also awarded her a graduation certificate, and her teachers and classmates all congratulated her with a smile.
"Xia Qiu, I heard that you won another award in this year's costume competition. Congratulations."
"Xia Qiu, I saw the clothes you designed at the mall yesterday. They are so beautiful!"
"Xia Qiu, will you stay in Hong Kong after graduation? I heard that a clothing company abroad wants you to work there. Have you agreed?"
“…”
The classmates surrounded Xia Qiu and chattered non-stop. Xia Qiu smiled brightly and responded to everyone's questions one by one.
All these respects and blessings were earned by her own strength bit by bit. As an auditor from the mainland, one can imagine the effort and hard work she put in to achieve this. Fortunately, now everything has cleared up and there is only a rainbow.
"Xia Qiu." Li Ruolin walked up to Xia Qiu and handed her a square box. "This is for you. It's your graduation present."
As time went by, her impression of Xia Qiu gradually changed. From the initial disdain to the current admiration, Li Ruolin was really impressed by this mainland girl. She was indeed quite amazing.
Over time, the relationship between the two miraculously became good.
"What gift?" Xia Qiu asked in confusion.
"You'll know once you open it." Li Ruolin gestured for her to open the box.
"Isn't it some kind of prank to play on me?" Xia Qiu asked deliberately.
"How is that possible?" Li Ruolin was angry. "Am I that kind of person?"
"Yes." Xia Qiu nodded sincerely.
Li Ruolin: “…”
Xia Qiu laughed, "Okay, I was just teasing you."
She opened the box with a smile, and then was stunned. Inside the box was a brand new and beautiful bachelor's gown.
"How is it? Pretty, isn't it?" Li Ruolin asked her proudly. "I knew you didn't have a bachelor's degree gown, so I had someone make one for you. Do you like it?"
Xia Qiu was stunned. No matter how outstanding she was, she was still an auditor from the mainland in this school. Although she had a graduation certificate, she did not have a bachelor's degree, let alone a bachelor's gown. The gift from Li Ruolin almost made up for her only regret in school.
Her eyes became red as she looked at the beautiful bachelor's gown.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're not going to cry, are you? Are you that moved?" Li Ruolin panicked. "Stop it now! Don't wait for your boyfriend to come and say it was me. Go change your clothes."
Xia Qiu was so moved that her tears were instantly held back, and she felt a little amused and helpless.
As she was speaking, she looked up and saw Chen Musheng walking towards her in formal attire, holding a large bouquet of roses.
Li Ruolin took one look and retreated tactfully.
"Happy graduation, Xiaoqiu."
Chen Musheng handed the flowers in his hand to Xia Qiu, then gave her a gentle hug.
"Thank you." Xia Qiu smiled, feeling full of happiness.
Chen Musheng looked at her and said with a smile, "Then can we interview Mr. Xia, the designer, now? Where are you planning to develop your career in the future?"
"Let me make it clear first. I've made my position clear. I'll go wherever you go. You can't leave me behind." Chen Musheng said. He also learned from the Third Master that when it's time to delegate power to his subordinates, he should do so. He is the boss and the manager, and he doesn't need to be so diligent.
As long as you know how to employ people, the company can still operate and business can continue even without them.
"Well, I need to think about it carefully." Xia Qiu said deliberately.
In fact, she had already decided to stay in Hong Kong City, not only because of Chen Musheng, but also because this was her place to develop, and she wanted to explore more here.
"If you haven't thought it through, why not ask your uncle and aunt for their opinions?" Chen Musheng said.
Xia Qiu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll call my parents later and ask for their opinions."
Chen Musheng: "No need to send a telegram, and no need to wait."
"What do you mean?" Xia Qiu was stunned.
"Look back." Chen Musheng held her shoulders and asked her to turn in another direction.
Xia Qiu looked at her parents who were only a few meters away from her. They were both smiling at her. She widened her eyes in disbelief, thinking she was hallucinating.
"I'm not dreaming, am I?" she murmured.
"It's real, not a dream." Chen Musheng took her by the hand and walked in front of Xia's father and Xu Hanhe, "Uncle and aunt."
"My good daughter." Xu Hanhe looked at Xia Qiu with red eyes and hugged her in her arms.
"Dad, Mom, it's really you." It was not until this moment that Xia Qiu woke up from her dream, and tears came down in an instant.
Father Xia's eyes also turned red.
"Why are you here?" Xia Qiu still found it incredible.
"Xiao Chen arranged everything. He sent someone to pick us up." Xu Hanhe touched her daughter's face. This was the first time she and her husband had come to such a faraway place. "Xiao Chen said he didn't want you to have any regrets and wanted us to accompany you until graduation."
Xia Qiu looked at Chen Musheng with a smile on his face, and her tears flowed even more violently.
"Thank you, Musheng." She cried uncontrollably.
She knew very well how much effort it would take to bring her parents to Hong Kong City, and she had never imagined that her parents would accompany her on the day of graduation.
"Okay, stop crying." Chen Musheng gently wiped her tears. "So many people are watching us."
"I don't care whether they watch it or not." Xia Qiu didn't want to care about these things, she just wanted to have a good cry.
Chen Musheng chuckled softly, then said, "But if you cry again, it will be difficult for me to continue with what I am doing."
"What...what happened?" Xia Qiu sobbed, trying to calm his excitement.
"Of course..." Chen Musheng took out the ring that Xia Qiu was very familiar with from his pocket, then held up the ring and knelt on one knee, "I ask you to marry me."
Xia Qiu suddenly froze and even forgot to sob.
"Excuse me, Miss Xia Qiu, is now the right time?" Xia Qiu heard Chen Musheng ask her this.
She looked at the man kneeling on one knee in front of her, his face full of tenderness, his eyes full of affection, patiently waiting for her answer. She looked at her parents standing by, smiling at them, with blessings and support on their faces. She looked at her classmates, friends and teachers not far away, clapping loudly, screaming and cheering, asking her to agree to the man in front of her.
All the beautiful and happy scenes gather together at this moment, as unreal as a dream, yet they really exist.
In an instant, Xia Qiu burst into tears. She nodded continuously, stretched out her trembling hands, and said repeatedly: "I do!"
“Wow!”
“Woo!”
Amidst applause and screams, Chen Musheng, with red eyes, smiled and put the ring on Xia Qiu's finger.
Then, he hugged her and whispered in her ear: "Thank you, Xiaoqiu, my life goal has finally been achieved."
