Chapter 101 I do
This shoot took longer than any other, but Mengxin showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever.
On the contrary, she wished the other party could change into several more outfits and take several more takes.
Mengxin had already decided to ask the other party to be her long-term spokesperson, but this was not a decision she could make alone; she had to discuss it with her boss.
Next to the Mengli Company building is one of its jewelry stores.
After several hours of filming, Mengxin personally took Xie Qing to visit the store.
The two walked ahead, with Yi Wu following closely behind, looking serious. He was tall and strong, and dressed in all black, making him easy to mistake for a member of the underworld.
Meng Xin lowered her voice slightly and asked softly, "Xie Qing, where did you find this bodyguard? He looks quite menacing."
It feels like he has a lot of lives on his hands.
As she said this, her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Yi Wu behind her a few more times.
Xie smiled lightly, "It was arranged by my family."
Mengxin was a little confused. Xie Qing's family background had already been exposed and posted online by netizens, so she was already aware of it.
She absolutely did not mean to look down on the other party, but given Xie Qing's family background, it really didn't seem like they had the means to hire bodyguards.
Could it be that everything online is false, and Xie Qing is actually a rich second-generation?
Upon entering the Mengli Jewelry store, Mengxin subtly suppressed her doubts and enthusiastically began guiding Xie Qing on a tour. During the tour, she patiently and meticulously provided explanations.
It can be said that they did their utmost.
After Xie Qing followed Meng Xin around at a leisurely pace, her gaze finally settled on the area where the rings were displayed.
He thought about how his marriage to Huo Yunting had been too rushed, so rushed that there was no proposal or ring, and they went straight to the point.
Thinking of this, he instantly felt that he had wronged the other party.
Xie Qing slowly walked forward, her eyes scanning the rows of neatly arranged rings with focused attention, as if she were choosing a ring she liked.
Seeing this, Mengxin couldn't help but ask, "Xie Qing, are you... thinking of buying a ring?"
Xie Qing nodded, but her gaze remained fixed on the rows of rings in front of her, her brows slightly furrowed.
It looked as if they couldn't find a ring that suited their taste no matter what they looked like.
Mengxin immediately realized that the other person seemed to have a same-sex partner, and said, "Then you've come to the wrong place. Come with me."
Xie Qing raised an eyebrow and followed the other person to another counter. Meng Xin stood in front of the counter, pointed to the rings inside, and said, "These are rings that our company specially designed for same-sex couples. You can take a look."
Xie Qing's gaze slowly swept around, and inadvertently, his eyes were drawn to a pair of rings, and a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
"I'd like to see those rings."
He pointed with his long, slender, fair fingers to the pair of rings he had his eye on.
Seeing this, the shop assistant standing to the side quickly took the pair of rings out of the display case and carefully placed them on the counter.
Seeing Xie Qing's great interest in the rings, Meng Xin smiled and introduced them.
"This is a new ring launched by our company. The band is made of rose gold, with two intertwined lines forming an Allebore ring. The small diamonds set on it are natural alexandrite, which is a relatively rare type. Due to the high cost, it has not been mass-produced, so there is only one of these."
Xie Qing picked up the ring and looked at it, recalling the scene of her intertwining her fingers with Huo Yunting's, and estimated the size of his fingers.
Just a few seconds later, Xie Qing spoke.
"Please wrap this up for me."
Mengxin: "!"
Is it really necessary to be so decisive? Aren't you going to give it any thought?
Did he even know how expensive those rings were?
She had intended to advise the other party to consume rationally, but the shop assistant had already packed the items up quickly, her eyes filled with desire for commission.
Mengxin: ...
"Mr. Xie, this totals 254,000. I wish you and your lover eternal happiness."
The shop assistant smiled sincerely and handed Xie Qing the packaged bag.
"Thank you."
Xie accepted it with a light laugh and spent over two hundred thousand without even blinking.
He was carrying the bag in one hand, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Xie called out to Meng Xin, who was stunned in place, "Director Meng, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
Mengxin instantly snapped out of her daze, called out to Xie Qing, and then turned to give the shop assistant a wink.
The shop assistant understood immediately and took out an exquisite gift box from the counter.
Mengxin handed the gift box to Xie Qing, saying, "Here you go. Inside are some products you're endorsing today. You might need to wear them in public for promotional purposes."
"Well, I'll take it then."
……
On her way home, Xie Qing got off the bus once and went to a flower shop to buy a bouquet of champagne roses.
Yi Wu glanced at Xie Qing, who was holding roses, in the rearview mirror. Remembering her purchase of a ring, he asked her about it.
"Is Young Master Xie planning to propose?"
Xie Qing's lips curled into a smile, making her even more beautiful than the roses in her arms.
"correct."
Yi Wu was filled with doubt, thinking, "Aren't we already married? Why do I need to propose again?"
Is this what young people's interests are all about?!
We arrived at Yushui Bay at exactly 1 p.m.
Xie Qing thought to herself that Huo Yunting was probably not back yet.
So, holding those vibrant, dewy roses, he opened the door and walked straight inside.
Xie Qing changed her shoes in the entryway, and as soon as she looked up, her gaze met Huo Yunting's deep eyes.
Xie Qing was stunned when she saw Huo Yunting, and Huo Yunting was also stunned when he saw Xie Qing holding roses.
The air was silent for several seconds before Huo Yunting slightly parted his lips, "Qingqing, this is..."
Xie Qing couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes brimming with undisguised amusement.
He walked briskly to Huo Yunting, smiling as he approached. "I wanted to surprise you, but I don't know if it's surprising enough now."
Under Huo Yunting's gaze, Xie Qing held the bouquet of vibrant flowers, moved forward slowly, and then knelt down on one knee.
He looked up, his gaze intense, his voice sincere, "Mr. Huo, will you marry me?"
Without much description, just a simple sentence, Huo Yunting's pupils suddenly contracted, and he froze on the spot.
At that moment, it was as if a dazzling firework had exploded in his mind. After a blank moment, indescribable surprise and emotion spread wildly.
He appeared calm, but his heart was actually in turmoil.
"I am willing."
Huo Yunting's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he uttered these words.
Xie chuckled as she stood up, took out a ring and put it on the other person's finger, then handed her own ring to Huo Yunting.
Perhaps overwhelmed by the surprise, Huo Yunting's hand holding the ring trembled slightly.
Once the ring was fully inserted into Xie Qing's ring finger, his suppressed, surging emotions finally erupted.
