While Qian Shenghuo and his wife were filled with regret, Ye Fei was rushing to the Aegean Sea Restaurant with all his might.
He was already five minutes late, and if he didn't show up soon, Tang Ruoxue would probably lose her temper.
Ye Fei wanted to use traffic as an excuse, but when he picked up his phone, he found that his iPhone 4 had automatically shut down and wouldn't turn on no matter what he did.
He thought about buying a new phone and stepped on the gas a few more times to speed up.
Ten minutes later, Ye Fei rushed into the restaurant's parking lot.
He parked his car haphazardly in an empty spot and then pushed open the car door and ran towards the entrance.
But before he even entered the hall, he heard cheers coming from the restaurant.
Ye Fei looked up and saw that the Aegean Sea Restaurant had turned into a sea of flowers and balloons.
Thirty-six men and women in elegant attire stood in the shape of a heart, each holding a bouquet of roses, which shone brightly in the sunlight, vivid and eye-catching.
Ye Fei also saw Zhao Xiaoyue's tall figure.
In the middle of the group stood a young man, tall and handsome, with a broad forehead that exuded authority.
He was dressed in a British style, looking very fashionable.
Zhao Dongyang, a returned Ph.D. and a second-generation rich kid, was Zhao Xiaoyue's brother and the future heir of Dongyang Group.
He had pursued Tang Ruoxue for many years, but when he heard that she was seriously ill and needed a marriage to cure her, he immediately ran to a foreign country.
Now that Tang Ruoxue was fine, his evil thoughts resurfaced.
In front of Zhao Dongyang stood Tang Ruoxue, her expression grim.
It was clearly a scene of a declaration of love.
"Snap—" Zhao Dongyang made a gesture, and the thirty-six companions each revealed a small box in their left hand.
When they opened the boxes, a diamond appeared in each.
Thirty-six diamonds, dazzling and eye-catching.
The women present screamed in unison; it was too romantic and luxurious.
"Thirty-six diamonds, even if they are small, are worth a lot of money. How generous."
"This rich kid is so romantic and so rich."
"Isn't this the son of the chairman of Dongyang Group, Zhao Dongyang? How could he not be rich?"
Some people recognized Zhao Dongyang, and a chorus of exclamations followed.
Dongyang Group wasn't the top group in Zhonghai, but it was worth several billion, making it a local tycoon.
Being favored by him was a great honor for any woman.
The surrounding screams and exclamations made Zhao Dongyang's smile even more confident. He couldn't believe any woman could resist such romance.
Even the so-called Ice Queen, Tang Ruoxue, wouldn't be able to resist.
"Ruoxue, I'm back, I'm back to Zhonghai."
Zhao Dongyang held a rose and handed it to Tang Ruoxue with a beaming face: "I see you again."
His extraordinarily handsome face showed not only eagerness and impatience but also a barely contained anticipation.
This made the onlookers marvel: Look, look, how much this guy loves Tang Ruoxue! In just a moment, his smile was like a flower, truly a match made in heaven.
A few women who had designs on Zhao Dongyang bit their lips in envy.
"Ruoxue, you are so lucky!"
Zhao Xiaoyue exaggeratedly showed her happiness, her long legs clad in stockings crossed: "Brother, you are so biased, you always give flowers to Ruoxue when you come back."
"But this time, you gave too few. You used to give 999 roses each time, but today you only gave 360. I'll make you make up the difference tomorrow."
Ye Fei felt a chill... He didn't rush into the hall immediately; he wanted to see Tang Ruoxue's reaction.
Nothing else mattered; what mattered was Tang Ruoxue's heart.
At this moment, Zhao Dongyang knelt down on one knee in front of Tang Ruoxue, holding a rose: "Last year, I had to go abroad for the family's development."
"But even though I left, my heart has always been with you."
"Today, I didn't even see my parents; the first thing I did was to meet you."
"I want to make up for my mistakes, my longing, and my love for you."
"I will never make you sad again, never disappoint you again."
Zhao Dongyang, who had prepared for a long time, said with deep emotion: "Ruoxue, marry me, I will give you happiness."
Zhao Xiaoyue and the others screamed again, making it look like Tang Ruoxue was incredibly happy.
Then, dozens of men and women shouted in unison: "Marry him, marry him."
"Thank you!"
At this moment, Tang Ruoxue's face was cold and she was clearly repulsed by Zhao Dongyang's act: "These flowers... Mr. Zhao, you should give them to the girl who loves you."
She spoke with measured words, not letting Zhao Dongyang take the conversation in the direction he wanted: "I already have a husband!"
Although Zhao Dongyang was ten times better than Ye Fei, Tang Ruoxue had no feelings for him at all.
Zhao Xiaoyue's face changed: "Ruoxue, don't be stubborn, seize the opportunity."
"I know you already have a husband, but I also know that he is just a tool for your marriage to cure your illness..." Zhao Dongyang's face was calm, his left hand on his chest, speaking with conviction: "In your heart, only a man like me deserves you."
Tang Ruoxue's eyes showed annoyance: "Zhao Dongyang, I'll say it again, I already have a husband."
Zhao Dongyang still smiled: "You have a husband, I don't mind, because I love you from the bottom of my heart."
The crowd was surprised; this man loved Tang Ruoxue so much that he was willing to pursue her even though she had a husband.
Zhao Xiaoyue and the others were also moved to tears: "Ruoxue, you are so lucky! You must have saved the galaxy in your past life."
"Indeed, to win the love of Dongyang, you are simply making a fortune."
"Marry him! Marry him!"
The other companions also clapped: "Marry him! Marry him!"
Tang Ruoxue clenched her fists and shouted: "Zhao Dongyang, can't you understand human language?
I have a husband, and I don't love you."
Ye Fei understood Tang Ruoxue's heart and was incredibly happy. He then wanted to go in and help her out of the situation.
But just as he reached the entrance, he was blocked by three burly bodyguards.
A square-faced bodyguard, standing at 1.8 meters, said coldly: "Mr. Zhao is declaring his love; no one else can go in."
He pushed Ye Fei back with his hand.
"I am Ye Fei, this is a public restaurant, and Tang Ruoxue is my wife."
Ye Fei said coldly: "What right do you have to stop me from going in?"
"So what if she is your wife?
Even if she were your mother, it wouldn't matter."
The square-faced bodyguard sneered: "This declaration of love cannot be disrupted. If you want to go in, wait until Mr. Zhao wins the beauty... " Ye Fei narrowed his eyes: "Move."
"Hey, are you angry?
Losing your temper?
Feeling insulted, your dignity violated?"
The square-faced bodyguard spoke sarcastically: "But you are just a waste, what can you do besides hitting your head against the wall?"
When Ye Fei said that Tang Ruoxue was his wife, the square-faced bodyguard knew who he was: the son-in-law of the Tang family.
He was a complete wimp.
The square-faced bodyguard looked down on Ye Fei with disdain.
The other two bodyguards also smiled insincerely.
What could be more entertaining than a husband being helpless while his wife is coveted by another man?
Ye Fei said firmly: "Move."
"Can't you understand human language?"
The square-faced bodyguard glared: "Mr. Zhao is doing something important, don't disrupt it, or you'll get hurt."
He waved his large fist at Ye Fei.
"Bang—" Ye Fei didn't waste any words and knocked out the square-faced bodyguard with one punch.
