Chapter 1422 - 1424

Hahaha, Gong Ruwen and Gong Ruzhi were stunned. They really didn’t expect this to happen.

The Gong Brothers exchanged a look and tacitly decided not to appear on the rooftop.

Even though they couldn’t see Zhao Xuran’s expression, they knew it wouldn’t be good. Going out at this moment would definitely make them cannon fodder.

Of course, Uncle Zhao might be in trouble, as the brother-in-law would definitely hold it against him.

But nothing major would happen to Uncle Zhao. After all, he’s a father, and no matter how angry the son is, there should be a limit.

However, they are different; this ruthless brother-in-law would not let them off easily.

Gong Ruzhi uneasily whispered to Gong Ruwen, "We seem to have wasted a lot of time."

Gong Ruwen rolled his eyes, "Of course I know."

Otherwise, why would he be in such a hurry to bring Gong Ruini here, but it seemed like the timing was off.

"So what are we going to do?" Gong Ruzhi asked nervously.

"How would I know?" Gong Ruwen was also anxious, "We should just wait quietly."

If they showed up now, they would only put themselves squarely in the line of fire, there’d be no other possibility.

Since that’s the case, let’s just wait until the end. Gong Ruwen tightly held onto Gong Ruzhi, signaling him not to show himself.

It’s not that Gong Ruwen is suddenly displaying brotherly strength, but if the foolish younger brother dashed out, how could the older brother not follow?

Even if he didn’t go out, wouldn’t the foolish younger brother sell him out?

The Gong Brothers united on the front line by keeping their heads down, while Zhao Xuran was frazzled in every way.

How could this be? Zhao Xuran didn’t know what to do. Deny it? That’s impossible.

He couldn’t deny something one minute and propose the next; what would that make him?

At this moment, Zhao Xuran felt like dying. As a guy, he wanted to propose, and yet, before he even got into the proposal mode, his girlfriend saw it and even spoke it out.

"Why are you using red roses?"

Gong Ruini looked disdainfully at the red roses in Zhao Xuran’s arms, truly unable to appreciate them.

"Was it Guang Ran directing you remotely?" With so many people at home, if you ask which restaurant’s food is good, they’d tell you eloquently. But if you want to study flowers, especially those used for proposals, it’s only Zhao Guangran you can think of.

No way, the girlfriend doesn’t actually like roses? Zhao Xuran couldn’t even think about how to propose as he widened his eyes.

Oh heavens, why is proposing so difficult, "Then what kind of flowers do you like?"

Zhao Xuran regretted not thinking about giving flowers earlier. If he had, he would have known what kind of flowers Ni Zi liked and wouldn’t have made this mistake.

And now, during the one and only proposal ceremony of his life, such a blunder occurred.

Nothing can be perfect, but Zhao Xuran tried his best to make it so, especially wanting to give Ni Zi an unforgettable experience.

Zhao Xuran hoped that when they were old, as they sat in the sun chatting with grandchildren and great-grandchildren, they would recall today with a happy tone and expression.

But now all of this was messed up, botched right in his hands, everything, everything was botched.

Even if Gong Ruini gives him face and says the proposal was great, would Gong Ruzhi that brat spare him?

Maybe he would make it a big deal, but Zhao Xuran wasn’t worried about these stains. Everyone makes mistakes, is there anyone who doesn’t?

Zhao Xuran was really worried about what to do if that brat talked about it in front of Ni Zi; would Ni Zi feel hurt?

How about changing the date of the proposal? Yes, let’s reschedule it, treat today as a rehearsal, Zhao Xuran decided firmly, let’s just treat today as a meal gathering.

In any case, when it’s time for the official proposal, those third wheels absolutely cannot be present.

The most important thing is that these third wheels didn’t have the slightest self-awareness, and even took over as the hosts, which Zhao Xuran found most intolerable.

Gong Ruini, having waited a long while without receiving Zhao Xuran’s answer, was also getting impatient.

She was a pregnant woman, after all. Regardless, these days people are just accustomed to men proposing, not women being able to propose.

Gong Ruini walked up to Zhao Xuran and, with a backhand gesture, snatched the roses from him.

Gosh, wasn’t she supposed to dislike roses, why snatch them? Gong Ruini’s action left Zhao Xuran dumbfounded.

The scene that followed left Zhao Xuran even more dumbfounded, "Zhao Xuran, are you willing to marry Gong Ruini?"

"Even though she is somewhat strong-willed and not always gentle, she promises to be your strong support."

"If you encounter difficulties at work, she will help you resolve them."

"At home, she will take care of the family with you and share the household chores."

"Raising children together."

"Taking on the responsibility of being a daughter-in-law, wife, and sister-in-law. Mr. Zhao Xuran, are you willing to take on the responsibilities of being a son-in-law, husband, and brother-in-law?"

"Striving to be the pillar of the family, becoming a warm harbor of comfort for the wife and child at home."

"Becoming a good father and a good husband."

"Maintaining the family whether in the peaks or valleys of life?"

Gong Ruini had never experienced a proposal before, nor had she encountered a woman proposing, especially in such an impromptu situation. It was safe to say her mind was completely blank.

She could only express her thoughts and expectations for the family in this marriage proposal speech. She knew this proposal speech was far from as well-prepared as Zhao Xuran’s.

But what does it matter? Gong Ruini was quite proud. This marriage was her proposal, and when she grows old, she can talk to her kids about it and boast as an old lady for quite a while.

Oh my, Gong Ruwen and Gong Ruzhi were both about to go crazy, the former at least reined it in a bit.

Gong Ruzhi couldn’t care less, "Wow, my sister is amazing."

"My sister actually proposed."

"Amazing." Gong Ruzhi was so proud and excited, never having witnessed a proposal in person before.

But he knew most proposals were from men to women, but his sister actually proposed to her brother-in-law.

Gong Ruzhi expressed that in his lifetime, he would remember this scene for a long time.

Hearing Gong Ruzhi’s proud voice snapped Zhao Xuran out of his dazed state, "Ni Zi.."

As for the overly proud Gong Ruzhi on the side, who would remember the kid, let him be proud for now.

Once this is settled, for sure he will firmly educate that kid Gong Ruzhi.

And also Gong Ruwen, if everything had gone according to his earlier plans, none of this would have happened.

Gong Tao and the others were stunned, "Incredible, she is indeed my daughter."

"Why doesn’t Ni Zi just say Xuran marry her while she’s at it?"

Zhao Gang was surprised but what he wanted to say was that she is indeed the daughter-in-law he acknowledged, truly strong-willed. As for someone saying it doesn’t fit the setting,

in Zhao Gang’s opinion, as long as the daughter-in-law can enter the Zhao Family, does it matter who proposes?
