Chapter 373: Chapter 373 You Are Really Ridiculous_1
He refused to believe, he needed to know the real reason.
She could not abandon him like this, trampling on his deep affections so.
Ye Lu looked back at him helplessly, what on earth was he thinking? She had tried hard to spare everyone the embarrassment, but he remained stubborn.
"Lu-er, why hide the truth from him?"
Gu Yan walked to her side, his gentle gaze on her, taking her hand and smiling oddly.
"You’re trying so hard not to hurt him, but it’s a pity he doesn’t appreciate it. He’ll find out sooner or later, might as well tell him and let him give up completely."
Ye Lu trembled, watching him in shock, knowing what he wanted to do. She tried to pull her hand away in haste, but he gripped it tightly.
Third Young Master Jun’s face darkened even further, he bellowed: "What truth? Speak!"
Ye Lu turned even paler, her heart racing as she tried to draw back, but Gu Yan had grabbed her hand, raising it high and exposing it to the air.
"Jun Huang, can you clearly see what’s on her hand?"
The audience below was taken aback, quickly turning their gaze.
In the air, on Ye Lu’s snow-white finger, a small ring sat on her middle finger.
Everyone started chattering at once. Who doesn’t know what it means to wear a ring on the middle finger? It meant that the woman was already engaged, meaning that Ye Lu already had a fiancé.
But Third Young Master Jun had proposed to her, what was going on?
Discussions buzzed wildly.
Ye Lu faintly heard people mocking her, calling her a green tea bitch, hiding the fact that she was engaged to play both sides. Third Young Master Jun must have been deceived.
Her lips turned even paler.
"You’re engaged, you’re engaged to him?" Third Young Master Jun stared at her intently, his eyes filled with the anger of being deceived and hurt.
"Yes, she’s engaged to me."
Gu Yan looked at Third Young Master Jun’s pained and angry face, feeling a real sense of satisfaction. So now this man knew what it was like to have his love ruthlessly taken away from him?
Serves him right. He was just returning tenfold the pain inflicted upon him back then.
"Jun Huang, don’t you think you’re ridiculous? Everything you’ve done tonight is the most embarrassing thing a man can do, proposing to someone else’s fiancée. There’s no one more ridiculous than you. You said I came to take your woman, now, you should be clear about whose woman she actually is."
Third Young Master Jun shuddered, his heart felt as if it had been pierced by countless blades, bloodied and mutilated. A strong sense of humiliation swept over him, as if he had been slapped hard in public.
He had become so ridiculous, so foolish, looking like a pitiful, self-righteous creature.
Spending so much effort preparing a lavish proposal, only to find out the object of his proposal was already engaged to someone else.
Even before tonight, he had wholeheartedly believed that she loved him, that she would definitely agree to his proposal, and that they would form a happy family.
Ha, ha, ha, indeed, there was no one more ridiculous than him! Even he wanted to laugh at his own foolishness, such deluded, wishful thinking like a fool.
"Gu Yan, that’s enough. Let’s go." Ye Lu couldn’t bear to watch any longer, the silent pain of Third Young Master Jun was too much for her to bear.
She forcibly pulled Gu Yan away, dragging him off stage, otherwise, he would surely taunt Jun Huang more.
Even if she used to despise Third Young Master Jun, the current scenario had already dealt him a great humiliation. As a man, there would be no more embarrassing scene, this was enough.
They left the stage, leaving Third Young Master Jun alone under the dazzling lights. Illuminating his lonely figure, he still clung tightly to the diamond, a symbol of his love, meant for his proposal.
