After placing Ye Xi next to the chairman's seat at the main table, Ye Jinfan turned around and walked towards the ceremony table.
With the whole audience watching, Ye Jinfan slowly started his speech——
"Hello everyone, I am Ye Jinfan, chairman of Lu Group. First of all, I would like to thank you all for coming to Lu's annual meeting. Your coming is the greatest honor for Lu and me. In fact, I want to say sorry to you.
Please forgive me for arriving so late for such an important occasion and for not being well received."
All the guests immediately burst into applause.
"Being late is an accident, but life requires all kinds of accidents, because only in this way can it be exciting." Ye Jinfan continued, "Just like this past year, our Lu Group has also experienced various accidents.
But today, I dare to tell everyone responsibly that we are still doing well."
The audience burst into applause again.
While everyone was listening carefully, Ye Xi's eyes frequently drifted to the next table.
Ye Jinfan stood on the stage and delivered a speech in an orderly manner, looking at the entire audience and occasionally falling on Ye Xi.
He knew exactly where Ye Xi's focus was at the moment.
"...Here, there are several important people that I would like to express my gratitude to." Ye Jinfan said, "First of all, I would like to thank our Lu Group's most important partner, Mr. Huo Jinxi of Huo Group, and Huo Jinfan
Mrs--"
The light immediately fell on Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian, and everyone around them looked over. Huo Jinxi just nodded slightly.
"Thank you both for your dedication and efforts to the friendly relationship between our Lu family and Huo family. I hope our cooperative relationship will be long-lasting, stable, and will last forever. We will always be the best partners."
Huo Jinxi slightly raised the corners of his lips.
Mu Qian picked up the wine glass on the table, saluted Ye Jinfan from afar, then raised her neck and took a sip.
When she put down her wine glass again, she glanced to the side inadvertently, and immediately met Ye Xi's expectant gaze.
Seeing her looking over, Ye Xi seemed slightly excited. However, this was the critical moment for Ye Jinfan to deliver a speech. The lights were flickering in the front court, and it seemed difficult for her to move.
Next, Ye Jinfan thanked a series of people, until finally, he thanked all the employees of the Lu family.
There were many employee representatives, so the lights suddenly moved away from the front court and were projected over a large area to a position in the back.
Seeing this, Ye Xi stood up suddenly and was about to walk towards Mu Qian when Ye Jinfan on the stage spoke again: "Finally, I want to thank one person in particular, the most important person in my life -"
The lights of the entire venue suddenly shone on Ye Xi, who had just stood up.
Ye Xi paused suddenly.
Ye Jinfan continued: "I hope to share such an important moment with her, and I also hope that everyone in the audience can witness it for me -"
Screams and applause rang out again in the stadium. Everyone looked at Ye Xi under the spotlight. Ye Xi was illuminated by the strong light and felt a little dazed for a moment. When he tried to look for Mu Qian again, there was only white in front of him.
It was so vast that it was impossible to see clearly where Mu Qian was.
Amidst the jeers and screams, a hostess came to her and invited her to the stage with a smile.
Ye Xi was like a puppet on strings, following her unconsciously until she came to the stage.
Ye Jinfan also stood in the spotlight and stretched out his hand towards her.
Ye Xi was in a daze.
This scene was something she had never dared to dream about.
Because from the very beginning, they were not right in their name, and their words were not correct. They knew clearly that they shouldn't, but they couldn't control their emotions and started.
She never dared to think about how it would end.
She didn't even dare to think about a situation like this.
So much so that at this moment, she couldn't be sure whether she was dreaming or not.
Seeing her standing still, Ye Jinfan took the initiative to take two steps forward, stretched out his hand and held her.
The temperature in his palm was very real.
Ye Xi thought that she might not be dreaming.
However, the next moment, Ye Jinfan suddenly knelt on one knee in front of her and took out a diamond ring from his pocket.
Everyone in the house was shocked, and then there were roaring whistles and screams——
In the midst of the noise, Ye Xi's mind was completely blank. She could only see the man in front of her and the ring in his hand.
She saw his lips moving and speaking in the lowest voice that only two people could hear.
He said: "Who says we can't be honest?"
Ye Xi's tears suddenly burst into her eyes.
Cheers followed one after another from below: "Marry him! Marry him! Marry him!"
Amidst the cheers from the busybodies, Mu Qian quietly sat back in her chair and watched the scene on the stage calmly.
From the moment she saw Ye Xi in a daze, she knew how important this moment was to Ye Xi.
The moment he saw her tears falling, Mu Qian knew that this was the realization of a dream.
Ye Xi finally got what she wanted and what she wanted.
Two or three years ago, she should have been happy for her and cried with her in sympathy.
But now, looking at the two people on the stage, her mood was neither happy nor sad.
Some things are probably just like this, they are destined and cannot be changed.
Mu Qian slowly closed her eyes.
A lady sitting next to her turned to look at her and laughed, "Mrs. Huo, it's so lively, why are you sleepy?"
Mu Qian chuckled lightly and said, "Yes, I have been too serious about watching dramas recently and I feel tired."
After saying that, she turned her head to look at the stage again.
Ye Jinfan was slowly putting the diamond ring on Ye Xi's finger. Then, he held her hand tightly, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her deeply.
It was a beautiful scene like the ending of a fairy tale, but Mu Qian closed her eyes again.
…
For the next time, Ye Xi still seemed to be in a dream.
People kept raising glasses and coming up to say congratulations to Ye Jinfan and her. She originally held juice in her hand, but she didn't know when it was replaced by wine, and she drank several glasses in a daze.
Ye Jinfan had always been with him, but there were too many people he had to take care of that night, and Ye Xi was dragged into it by a group of ladies at some point. Listening to the continuous congratulations and praises, his head became even more dizzy.
Shen Shen.
There were too many people around, and she just felt noisy. She couldn't help but want to turn around and look for Ye Jinfan, but for a moment she couldn't see him. She couldn't help but raised her head and looked up. As she was wandering, she suddenly bumped into someone.
.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Ye Xi said repeatedly, "I'm sorry——"
When she turned around, she saw a pair of black and white eyes as clear as water.
These eyes were so familiar to her.
In an instant, Ye Xi suddenly woke up. What she was going to say failed to stop the car and blurted out: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..."
Mu Qian looked at her quietly, but just smiled and said two words: "Congratulations."
