Qiao Ran got out of the taxi in front of the restaurant where Gu Qingyan sent her location.
She had heard about this restaurant and had seen the promotion page in a food magazine. It was in a quiet location in the middle of the bustle, pure Western style, and the entire restaurant was surrounded by water features. It was at night, and the lanterns were lit everywhere, reflecting the water.
A curtain-like waterfall surrounds the entire restaurant, and illuminated by colorful lights, it looks like neon lights falling under a starry night.
Located in the middle of the water, on the path leading to the hotel, there are flowers on both sides, including lilies and roses, red and white.
Every step you take seems to be taking a romantic step.
As Qiao Ran walked, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird and the restaurant was too grand. It was dinner time now, so there should be other people coming to dine, but unfortunately there was no one coming and going.
When she entered the restaurant, it was indeed what she thought.
Gu Qingyan had reserved the venue, and there was no one inside.
In the center of the restaurant, there is a long French table, covered with roses and arranged in a "heart" shape. The top of the restaurant is shaped like a starry sky, with a beautiful blue tone and dotted with countless twinkling stars. For a moment, it seems that
People are in a dream.
Gu Qingyan, wearing a sky-blue suit, slowly walked out from the corner. His handsome and smooth face was as clean and pure as if a bright moonlight suddenly appeared in the sea of stars, able to shine into the depths of a person's heart.
Qiao Ran had a vague premonition in his heart, as if he knew what he was going to do. After all, they had been together for a while and knew something about him.
She subconsciously stopped and started to back away.
Gu Qingyan stepped forward and held her wrist to prevent her from retreating.
"Of course, what I have prepared for you tonight, do you like it?" His eyes reflected the bright stars, and his sincere attitude made people unable to refuse.
"Very beautiful. Thank you." She replied awkwardly, biting her lower lip gently.
Gu Qingyan took out a black velvet box and knelt down on one knee, "Of course, this is not the first time I propose to you. Last time, my legs couldn't walk, I couldn't kneel down on one knee, and the ring was very ordinary.
.I have wronged you before, but that time does not count."
"Now, I formally propose to you." He took her hand and opened the black velvet box in front of her.
Under the illumination of countless spotlights, the blue diamond in the box suddenly bloomed with dazzling light.
"This is a blue diamond. I have been looking for it for a long time, and I feel that it is the only one that best represents my feelings. It is clear and pure, just like my feelings for you, which will never change. Marry me, Qiao Ran,
I love you."
His eyes revealed infinite sincerity and sincere expectations.
The rare blue diamond exudes a moving and bright dazzling light at this moment.
Really, it's so beautiful. Even someone like her who doesn't care about gems is dazzled by it.
Her heart shook slightly. Gu Qingyan liked her. She had known for a long time that the scenes they had experienced, including innocence, dullness, struggle, pain, and relief, were replayed in her mind like a revolving lantern.
He is so attentive and knows her preferences well.
It's not like she doesn't understand his persistence.
He didn't even mind that now, she was pregnant with someone else's child.
It's just that she couldn't do it, couldn't accept his love. She couldn't do it in the past, she couldn't do it now, and she couldn't do it in the future.
Gu Qingyan tremblingly took out the blue diamond ring, took Qiao Ran's hand, and wanted to put it on her personally.
Qiao Ran instinctively retracted his hand.
No, it can't be.
No matter how cruel she was, she could only say, "I'm sorry, Qingyan, thank you for your kindness. But I really can't accept it."
She reached out, put the ring back in place, and gently closed the box of the blue diamond ring. She pulled him up from the ground, with an apologetic smile on her lips, "I don't deserve it, you deserve better."
Yan, you will definitely find a girl who loves you wholeheartedly and treats you well. She is more suitable for this ring than me."
Gu Qingyan's eyes suddenly showed a glimmer of sadness and despair. Seeing that she wanted to let go, he quickly held her arm.
"Am I too abrupt? I'm sorry, I'm a little impatient. I can wait a little longer." It's not that he didn't understand her rejection, he didn't want to cut off his last hope.
"There will be no other girls. Without you, I will never marry in my life. The owner of this ring can only be you." His expression showed great determination, "You know, I will do what I say."
Qiao Ran was shocked in his heart. When had he become so persistent?
"Qingyan, I'm sorry, I know what happened this morning, you must have misunderstood. In fact, it is not what the reporter reported..."
"I know, I believe you unconditionally." Gu Qingyan quickly interrupted her.
He was not stimulated by the morning news and decided to propose on the spur of the moment. He once proposed to her at St. Mary's Hospital before he had the operation. It was in a hurry and in a hurry, and they ended up unhappy. He always had a feeling in his heart.
Pity.
At least, he has never formally and completely expressed his feelings.
"I owe you a formal proposal, whether you accept it or reject it. I have no regrets. However, I will wait for you to change your mind. I will prove everything to you." He held her hands firmly and conveyed
His determination.
"Qing Yan..."
Qiao Ran was about to speak but stopped.
Finally, she made up her mind and said, "Last time you asked me what my future plans were. I can answer you now. I plan to complete the design plan I promised to be the director of R&S Group before divorcing Zuo Chenye. After that, I will leave
R&S Group.”
"Really?" Gu Qingyan was overjoyed. She was going to leave Zuo Chenye completely. It was great.
He asked excitedly, "Do you want to start your own business? Funding is not a problem, I can help you solve it. If you need anything, just ask me."
"I have no such plan for the time being. Thank you for your kindness." Qiao Ran smiled slightly, "I just want to find a peaceful place to give birth to the child and raise it alone."
She looked around at the beautiful scene layout. It was a pity that the time was wrong and the people were wrong. He paid by mistake after all.
"It looks like I won't be able to finish today's dinner. I'm sorry to disappoint you." She sighed softly, "I'm sorry, Qingyan, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Being procrastinating will hurt everyone. She doesn't want to hurt Gu Qingyan anymore. He finally found himself and returned to the glorious world. This is what she has always wanted to see.
Gu Qingyan stared blankly at her leaving figure. He wanted to stop her, but found that he didn't even have an excuse and was feeble.
He leaned slumped on the long French table, holding the blue diamond ring tightly in his hand.
