Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 32) Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 32) Gu Shengyin’s eighteenth birthday adult ceremony was held with great splendor.
He Junyan had put in a lot of effort to give her a perfect birthday banquet, striving for the best in every aspect.
“Today, in front of all the guests, I, He Junyan, as Miss Su Keqing’s guardian, will return everything that belongs to Miss Su Keqing under the witness of everyone,” He Junyan said after finishing his speech.
Many in the audience had already grasped his meaning.
The identity of Su Keqing was known to most of the people here, and many were even friends of Su Keqing’s parents. These people felt relieved and pleased with He Junyan’s actions.
There were others harboring different thoughts who were genuinely surprised. They had speculated privately before that the Su couple entrusting their daughter and the family assets to someone else was like delivering a juicy piece of meat to a beast for safekeeping, likely never to be returned.
Unexpectedly, He Junyan, he truly was such a gentleman.
He Junyan, accompanied by a lawyer, handed a stack of thick documents to Gu Shengyin after signing them.
Gu Shengyin carefully examined each document and signed her name.
She could have chosen not to look and trust He Junyan directly. But seeing the seriousness of this man, if she had really done so, it wouldn’t have been trusting the man but rather failing his painstaking efforts.
He Junyan specifically returned the Su’s assets to her in front of all the business tycoons of Jinhua City, which was telling everyone that the real head of the Su’s had returned.
Of course, Gu Shengyin could not treat this as a joke.
However, there was more than one unexpected event today.
As Gu Shengyin finished signing, and all the guests had respectfully stood up and applauded, the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed.
The pale pink light looked particularly dreamy in such an ambiance.
While everyone was surprised by what was happening, He Junyan suddenly took out a small box from his pocket.
Gu Shengyin instantly understood what he was going to do.
Although they were already an old married couple, the surprise still made her involuntarily cover her mouth.
In front of everyone, He Junyan knelt down on one knee to Gu Shengyin, opened the box in his hand, and a delicate diamond ring shone incomparably beautiful under the flowing light.
“Today, in front of all the guests, there is another more important matter that I haven’t mentioned,” he said.
He looked at Gu Shengyin seriously, his eyes full of deep affection, “Qingqing, will you marry me?”
“Ah!” There were already women in the audience who couldn’t help but exclaim in low voices.
Everyone was stunned by this turn of events, wondering what was happening next. If they hadn’t heard wrong earlier, wasn’t President He the guardian of Miss Su?
Those who liked to speculate thought they “understood” He Junyan’s intentions at once: So that’s how it is, no wonder he so readily handed over the shares of Su’s, with a follow-up move in store.
Brilliant, truly brilliant! Even Miss Su had become his, He Junyan’s; could the Su’s be far behind?
What outsiders thought didn’t matter to Gu Shengyin and He Junyan at all.
At this moment, they only had eyes for each other.
The smile on Gu Shengyin’s face just wouldn’t stop as she extended her hand to He Junyan.
“So romantic,” a girl in the crowd exclaimed excitedly, leading the others to clap their hands.
The rest of the guests returned to their senses, and regardless of their inner thoughts, they all wore smiles on their faces, congratulating the couple.
