Su He’s entire body shook violently. Her eyes inexplicably turned red. She tried hard to stretch out her hand and covered her mouth to keep herself from crying out. She sucked in a few deep breaths to temporarily keep her emotions under control before she said quietly, “This… is too sudden. I’m… confused.”

“I know… I know…” The corners of Ye Yan’s lips curved upward slightly as he looked at the helpless person as a result of his abrupt action. He took her cold hand into his as he said in a low voice, “You don’t have to reply to me in a hurry. I am willing to wait for you. However, I hope that you could accept this for the time being.”

As Ye Yan was saying this, he quickly took the beautiful, dazzling diamond ring from the top of the roses and carefully put it on Su He’s ring finger.

Su He’s finger was smaller than most ladies’. However, Ye Yan’s ring was neither too big nor too small on her. Judging from its texture and pattern, one knew that the ring was custom-made in just a single glance.

Su He felt her eyes fly wide open as she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief. “How did you…”

Ye Yan looked like he had guessed Su He’s train of thought. The corners of his lips curled upward. He took her hand in his and showed her his finger. “Make a circle and gesture it like this. That’s how I found out.”

Su He’s small face turned red as she looked at Ye Yan circle her finger with his long and slender finger. She belatedly realized that at that time, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng had come to her house in the morning, and she had discovered Ye Yan only at night.

In other words, could Ye Yan have followed Zhao Youlin’s car as it drove into the Su family, and then hidden inside her room?!

She had even taken a nap during the afternoon. Could it be that Ye Yan had already entered her room, and he had even…

When Ye Yan saw Su He’s shocked and bashful expression, he knew that she could already make the guess when he measured the diameter of her finger. The smile on his lips grew increasingly prominent.

By the time Jiang Wenfang and the rest of her group were snapped out of their trance, they were greeted by such a sight. A noble gentleman had kneeled down on one knee, romantically proposing to a young lady, while the young lady was very shy and secretly gleeful. They were a match made in heaven and were in love with each other!

When Su Jifeng saw this, his expression instantly darkened. Before his younger sister gave in to Ye Yan, he quickly blocked in front of them and glared hostilely at Ye Yan. He said arrogantly, “Xiao Qi is pregnant and gets tired easily. She needs to rest more. Mr. Ye, if there’s nothing else, please leave.”

Su Jifeng’s interruption successfully got Su He snapping out of her trance. Her face grew increasingly red when she recalled what she had done a while ago. The next thing she knew, she hid behind Su Jifeng and dared not to come out.

When Su Jifeng saw Su He in her current state, he became more encouraged. He raised one of his eyebrows and gave Ye Yan a provocative look.

When Ye Yan saw Su He’s avoiding glance, he knew in his heart that he had achieved his purpose. He did not insist on staying on. After giving a profound glance at Su He, he turned his head around and looked at the former master of the family and the rest of his group before he said politely, “I’m sorry for the unexpected visitation. Since Xiao He needs more rest, I’ll excuse myself now. I’ll pay you a visit on other days to express my heartfelt apologies.”

Jiang Wenfang and the rest of her gang were confused by Ye Yan’s sudden come and go. Wasn’t this the ideal time to annoy Xiao Qi at all costs? Should he not stay regardless of the consequences? Why wasn’t this proceeding in accordance with the cliché of a setting?!

Since Ye Yan had said so, they had the old butler to send him off.

Ye Yan gave a final glance at Su He before he left. He was a little disappointed when he noticed that she did not return his gaze. However, on second thought, Su He still had his ring on her finger. He was relieved and followed the old butler out in a good mood.

“Ahem… Xiao Qi, you must be tired now. Go upstairs and take a rest. We still have to receive your aunt and the rest of her gang. When it’s time for a meal, we’ll inform you.”

Right after Ye Yan left, Jiang Wenfang raised her voice and called out to her precious daughter.

Su He felt like the empress had finally given her her mercy, and she quickly gave a nod while saying, “I’ll go upstairs, then. Aunt, Uncle, Youlin and Tingfeng, take a seat and make yourself at home.”

“Okay. Go up and take a good rest.” Upon hearing this, Su Ruixin quickly waved her hand and signaled Su He to go upstairs and take a rest.

The moment Su He went upstairs, the atmosphere downstairs was completely turned upside down. A group of people huddled on the couch and engaged in a heated discussion regarding the incident that had happened.

“What… do you think about it?” Jiang Wenfang was the one who took the lead to start the conversation.

“What’s with it?” Su Liqiang looked puzzled. The next moment, he looked like he understood something. His expression turned dark and said solemnly, “Are you referring to that kid? Hmph! Despite his good looks, he lacked even the most basic of courtesies. How dare he come over and propose to Xiao Qi without our approval when we haven’t even settled the account with him for causing our daughter to become pregnant?! Apparently, he is terrified of our family’s power and intends to bewitch us for the sake of his life and the abolition of his sin! I really couldn’t put up with this! I’ll have my men kill him later!”

“Kill him, my foot!” Before Su Liqiang had fully demonstrated his ferocity, he was slapped by Jiang Wenfang once again. “Darn you! Why can’t you put a stop to the murderous intent in your bones after all these years? We’re businessmen conducting legal transactions instead of burglars. We don’t simply kill people or threaten them. Su Jifeng has become this way all because his father is always picking fights! With such a strong sense of killing aura, it’s no surprise that Jifeng still couldn’t get a wife even today!”

Su Jifeng, who had been dragged into a situation innocently, was rendered speechless. ‘What did she mean when she said that I couldn’t find a wife? In fact, I’m the one who ignored those two-faced women who only come after my money and ride on my coattails in order to rise to power. Otherwise, a large number of women are willing to die for me as long as I give a nod, okay?!’

Su Liqiang, on the other hand, disagreed with his wife upon hearing her statements. “Of course he has a temperament similar to mine! This is due to the fact that he is my son! How can his temperament be different from mine? I’d be terrified if his temperament resembled that of others.”

“What did you say?! Repeat yourself!” Jiang Wenfang cocked one of her eyebrows right after Su Liqiang spoke. Her face darkened as she said, “You’re getting bolder, huh?! Now you even dare to speak against me!”

Su Liqiang’s expression turned stiff. He gave a dry smile before he offered his apology. “No… No… I’m not serious. I was wrong. You’re right. I promise I won’t have a negative influence on our son. You have my word on it!”

Jiang Wenfang snickered without hesitation. “You’ve repeatedly made the same promise. But when was the last time you truly kept your promise?”

Su Liqiang was rendered speechless. He was already all tears in his heart. ‘Dear Missus, there are a lot of juniors around here. Could you please show me some respect?!’

The moment Su Jifeng turned his head around, he was met with the sight of Zhao Youlin staring at his parents. The corners of her lips twitched. For a moment, Su Jifeng felt shameful. He attempted to regain his dignity.. “Ahem… I’m sorry that my family made themselves a joke in front of you. Most of the time, my mother is the decision-maker in the family, while my father doesn’t have much say in the matter… Hahaha!”
