Chapter 368: Chapter 368: Two Men Fight over One Woman_1
He looked at her with confidence and dominance, half-kneeling on the ground, and held out the heart-shaped ’Atlantis’ towards her.
How could she not recognize that overly familiar face — it was Third Young Master Jun. Ye Lu could hardly believe it, and she was completely dumbfounded.
It couldn’t be him, it shouldn’t be him. The one who orchestrated this touching proposal was the one she had always feared and loathed. It felt deeply ironic.
Right, Third Young Master Jun had asked her to meet him tonight. She had forgotten about this while looking at him.
But she could never have imagined that he would be the one proposing.
Hadn’t he grown tired of her and planned to break up with her tonight? But why put on this unprecedented ceremony and propose to her instead?
Ye Lu was completely startled, standing stiffly on the spot, her mind in disarray.
"Marry him!" "Marry him!" "Say yes to him!"
The crowd started to shout enthusiastically.
Everyone was moved. With such a romantic proposal, how could they stand by and watch? They had to lend a hand, assist this passionate man in winning over the woman he loved.
Ye Lu, trembling at the sound of people yelling for her to marry him, turned pale. Every person believed she should marry him.
For this proposal was so stirring that it moved everyone present.
Even she had been tempted a moment before, almost lost in the magic words. There was no woman who could resist such a romantic and picturesque proposal that evening.
But how could she do that?
She didn’t love him, and had already accepted Gu Yan’s proposal. She was here tonight to clarify everything with Third Young Master Jun.
But with the current circumstances, she found herself unable to speak.
Under the scrutiny of all, were she to refuse him, she would surely become a laughingstock, the subject of tomorrow’s headlines.
Moreover, if she dared to do so, he would definitely not let her go.
Thinking about how dreadful it would be to reject him, Ye Lu shuddered, not daring to contemplate the consequences.
But she couldn’t accept his proposal. Otherwise, how could she face Gu Yan?
She was torn inside.
"I..." Her lips trembled, and her breathing quickened.
Suddenly, all the noise around her quieted. Everyone was looking at her anxiously, awaiting her response.
Third Young Master Jun, kneeling on the ground, felt an unfamiliar tension. Despite being determined to win, he was nervous. This must be love, the more you care, the more nervous you are.
But he liked this feeling. It filled him with anticipation and an approaching sense of happiness. He would become happier, free from past loneliness, never to be alone again.
He would have a wife whom he loved, who loved him, cared for him, and accompanied him through the long journey of life. They would have many children, forming a warm and happy family.
Go on, accept him, fall in love with him. He would never disappoint her!
He would make her the happiest person.
However, a cold and sarcastic voice shattered his illusory happiness.
"She won’t marry you."
Everyone was taken aback as they turned to look at the young, pale, and enigmatic man who had suddenly appeared in the square. The crowd was buzzing with speculation.
"Who is he? Why would he say something like that? Is he here to ruin the event?"
"Wait, I think I’ve seen him in the financial news. He is the president of Gu Group."
"Oh my God! Are these two men fighting over the same woman? Is Young Master Gu here to steal Third Young Master Jun’s future wife?"
Startled, Ye Lu looked at Gu Yan, wondering why he was here.
