Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Too Unimaginative_1
Ye Lu also felt inexplicably upset. Even for this fortunate girl, who could return to her own home, the absence of her father meant she could never experience a father’s warmth.
After Hua Lunxi left, Feiyu glared at her, "I’ve been tasked by the Third Young Master to watch over you, you can’t fall for Hua Lunxi, otherwise we’re both finished."
Ye Lu responded irritably, "I just met him for the first time, what are you imagining?"
"I think you have a liking for him. You should know when Third Young Master gets angry, it will be enough for you to handle, so don’t stir up trouble."
...
Third Young Master Jun exited the palace conference hall.
The moment Prince Yilide saw him leave, his eyes lit up, "How did it go?"
"Me, king, making the move myself? Was there any chance of failure? I refuted those so-called experts to the point they were almost throwing up blood. In the end, they had no strength to retaliate and automatically withdrew in defeat!"
Third Young Master Jun rubbed his temples, a gruelling eight-hour brainstorming confrontation alone against several renowned financial experts from the oil industry, with every kind of verbal sparring, had left him exhausted, even in victory.
He longed more and more to return home quickly, hold his beloved in his arms, and take a good rest!
"But your father, he’s indeed a tough one to deal with."
"Haha, no matter how tough, you still managed to handle him. As a chieftain, he acts in the interest of the country. There are just too many factors he has to consider."
"Let’s go, to XX City, to claim my ’Atlantis Sunset’!" Once he obtained this diamond, he could return home. His desire to return was stronger than ever before.
"For victory?"
Third Young Master Jun smiled arrogantly, "No, for love."
Yilide was surprised, then burst into laughter, "Friend, to hear the word ’woman’ coming from your mouth is indeed surprising. In the past, I’ve offered you so many beauties, but you turned them all down!"
"You know I don’t like Western women, they have a strong smell."
"I have never met someone as picky as you, finding fault with everything. I am curious to see what kind of beauty she is, to have you claim ’Atlantis Sunset’ for her."
"Well, you’ll find out at the wedding."
"No way..." Yilide was dumbfounded, "You’re getting married? God, this is more unbelievable than hearing you’re into men."
"Isn’t getting married quite a normal thing?" Third Young Master Jun was nonchalant.
"It’s quite normal for others, but not for you, definitely not normal. So ’Atlantis Sunset’ is for a marriage proposal?"
"Yes!" Third Young Master Jun’s face was full of serious contemplation, "But, simply shoving such a huge diamond at her and saying, ’Marry me,’ won’t it be too common?"
Yilide glared at him irritably, "I think any woman who sees a diamond as big as a palm won’t be thinking about whether it’s common or not. After all, holding a gem worth a billion in her hand, she’d be too busy going crazy to consider such a frivolous issue."
"No, it’s too uncreative. Do you have any good suggestions?"
"Is proposing such a complicated matter? In our country, we just pull together hundreds of camels and sheep, and shove them at her doorstep. If she doesn’t agree, we don’t take the camels away. The place stinks day after day due to dung, can her family not yield?"
Third Young Master Jun looked down on him, was there a worse idea?
Absolutely lacking in aesthetic taste.
The two were in a car, driving through the city center when suddenly they saw news from the AsiaEuro Space Agency being broadcasted on the large screens in the city center.
Yilide said, "The Mars rover, `Miracle`, is about to land on Mars? King, isn’t this the space company you invested in?"
