Saving the male protagonist in the dungeon only resulted in him becoming cannon fodder.
Chapter 15 The Male Lead's Heartfelt Confession
Looking at the courtyard full of roses, everyone felt that the atmosphere was a bit off. It was like a marriage proposal. One second they were fantasizing about how to pursue Bai Mengmeng, and the next second someone had prepared a sea of red flowers. There was a sense of unease, after all, it was still unclear who was with whom.
As Lu Ze's small wooden boat glided across the flower-decorated arched bridge, everyone finally recognized who he was.
Many people began to whisper among themselves, "Isn't this Lu Ze from before? It's been so long since we've seen him. We didn't expect him to appear here. Even Uncle Bai was very happy to see him."
Uncle Bai listened to the whispers but paid no attention. He simply watched where his daughter would come out, hoping he hadn't mistaken her for someone else.
Liu Lin was the first to jump out, and the onlookers, thinking it was Liu Lin, breathed a sigh of relief. However, Old Master Liu was startled; he hadn't known Liu Lin and Lu Ze were together. The second to emerge was Wang Fei, dressed very formally. At first glance, it looked like Liu Lin was supporting Wang Fei. Now it was Uncle Wang's turn. Hearing the murmurs around him, he thought, "We're doomed. We're stuck with this situation. We have no choice but to agree." His heart sank. A moment later, a waiter brought flower baskets to Liu Lin and Wang Fei. Bai Mengmeng slowly walked out of the room, her face covered by a veil. Everyone strained to see who she was, as her face was completely obscured.
As the protagonist, Bai Mengmeng, lifted her veil, Old Master Liu and Uncle Wang were the first to applaud, while the rest exchanged bewildered glances. "Could it be Lu Ze and Bai Mengmeng?" It took them a while to realize and applaud. They had originally planned for their son to have a good show, but someone else had beaten them to it.
Bai Mengmeng wore a simple mermaid wedding dress, completely different from the purple fairy just now. One looked like an elf girl, while the other was more like a gentle and elegant little princess.
In fact, Bai Mengmeng was stunned when she saw this scene. She didn't expect it to be Lu Ze. Looking at the red roses all around her and considering the questions Liu Lin and Wang Fei had asked earlier, she realized that the final surprise was Lu Ze's confession.
Bai Mengmeng was pulled forward by Liu Lin and Wang Fei, and she moved closer to Lu Ze. Their hearts drew nearer, and Bai Mengmeng was transported back to the time when Lu Ze was her gigolo, accompanying him shopping countless times, buying him many things, only to return them the next day. Neither of them mentioned it. Actually, she hadn't shown much affection during the whole process, but she felt safe and secure with him by her side, a deep sense of trust. That night, she pondered this question: did she really like him? She couldn't find the answer until...
"Dear Miss Bai, hello. I am Lu Ze. First of all, I apologize for my abruptness, but I am also very fortunate to have met you. We don't have a dramatic love story, nor do we have any heart-wrenching experiences. I thought about it seriously last night, and it was probably from that letter that I became certain of my feelings. In this past year, we have been helping each other tacitly. We don't need to say many words to understand each other. Perhaps you would be willing to be the leading lady in my life?"
Bai Mengmeng watched as Lu Ze's hands trembled as he spoke, and she couldn't help but smile at the sight. Perhaps liking someone can be something that grows over time, or it can be love at first sight. Actually, she had liked Lu Ze since she was a child. He was always sunny and cheerful. Later, when they drifted apart and she learned that he was with Zhu Ting, she cried, felt disappointed, and even made a scene. But she never dared to confront him. Listening to Zhu Ting tell her about them every day, she gradually closed herself off, unwilling to receive any emotional signals. Thinking back over the past year, Lu Ze had always been meticulous in everything he did, from her eating habits to her business investments. She treated him more like a member of the family and had never seriously considered her feelings. Now that the person she liked in her youth was in front of her, and he was confessing his feelings to her, why not give herself another chance? Putting aside the feelings that had grown over time in her childhood, why not experience love at first sight? After all, she did like him, so she should accept it openly.
Lu Ze looked at the silent Bai Mengmeng, wondering if he was going to fail before he even started.
Not only were the people involved nervous, but everyone around them was tense. Bai Mengmeng remained silent, staring at the sky. Suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, Bai Mengmeng cupped Lu Ze's face and kissed him. She loudly proclaimed, "I do."
Lu Ze was still immersed in Bai Mengmeng's kiss and hadn't realized that Bai Mengmeng had agreed to be with him. Ji Feng, seeing the idiot grinning like a fool, couldn't help but reach out and remind him, "Mengmeng has already said she agreed, what are you grinning about?"
Lu Ze was stunned to realize that Mengmeng had actually agreed. In an instant, fireworks lit up the sky, creating a magnificent spectacle. The most alarmed was Uncle Bai, who had thought his daughter disagreed. He had given Lu Ze the entire company without saying a word, but he had almost ruined the relationship by thinking Mengmeng didn't like him. However, seeing the two of them so happy together, he felt a weight lifted from his shoulders.
Seeing that things had gone smoothly, Ji Feng began preparing for the dinner. Uncle Bai, also seeing that today had turned out well, was also thinking of preparing dinner to celebrate, but he didn't expect that someone had already started preparing.
When Uncle Bai arrived at the dining room and saw Ji Feng busy at work, he said, "Good boy, you're preparing so quickly, you're almost as fast as this old man." Ji Feng knew that this was the famous Bai Wenxun. "Uncle Bai, this is all Lu Ze's idea, we can't be impolite." Bai Wenxun looked at this good boy and liked him very much. "Then I'll host the evening as well. Lu Ze has done everything so meticulously, I have to help him out."
Ji Feng wasn't the type to fawn over others, so once he arrived in Xie's place, he continued with his work.
It took Lu Ze a while to realize that Bai Mengmeng was now his girlfriend. Ignoring everyone's stares, he said, "Mengmeng, you just kissed me, so I have to return the kiss."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two of them stood beneath the fireworks, a truly magnificent sight.
Liu Lin and Faye Wong were both stunned. "How come they're kissing so soon after they got together? This is inappropriate for children!"
The last remaining illusions of the others have now been shattered.
When Zhu Ting came out of the police station, she discovered that the news of Bai Mengmeng and Lu Ze being together had already topped the trending searches, all with positive reviews. Zhu Ting became increasingly angry. "How come I didn't notice that the two of them were hooking up? You two scoundrels, just wait, you'll get what's coming to you."
