The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 193 Proposal

Gu Yuxuan lifted up her gaze and her eyes met with Murong Xu's starry gaze that was filled with the twinkles of all kinds of stars. Her heart seemed to skip a beat again. She could not stop her cheeks from turning red.

"Xuan Xuan, will you marry me?"

Murong Xu seemed to be nervous, his elegant voice trembled a little.

Gu Yuxuan was slightly surprised. She stared intensely into Murong Xu's eyes.

Murong Xu reached out into the pocket of his pants and took out a delicate flannel box. Gu Yuxuan's heartbeat became so fast her heart was almost going to break through her throat and jump out of her mouth.

"Xuan Xuan, I really like you. In the past, I wanted you to enjoy the happiness from the dating life for a few more years, but I realized that I really cannot wait to marry you home! I promise, even if I marry you home, I will still continue to treat you like when we were dating. Let us enjoy the sweetness of dating every day."

While he talked, Murong Xu opened up the little box and a sparkling diamond ring came into sight. The s.h.i.+ning diamond was even more gorgeous under the moonlight and festival lights, like the starry sky.

Gu Yuxuan was already too surprised to say anything. She covered her mouth with her small hand and her eyes were watery from being agitated. She fixed her gaze on the ring that Murong Xu was holding.

"Xuan Xuan, I've imagined countless times what the scene will be like when I propose to you, but I'm really very nervous. Eventually, I realized that none of the unscrupulous things I've imagined myself to say actually came out of my mouth. This cheesy proposal is still inevitable."

Gu Yuxuan finally calmed down from being surprised. A ray of light flashed across her mind. She then chuckled and hooked one hand on his neck.

Gu Yuxuan mysteriously took out a one dollar coin from her coat pocket and placed it on her palm. She looked into his eyes seriously. "Xu, I don't have money, nor do I have an outstanding background, and I don't have a smart brain and pretty face like Xiao Xi. I'm as ordinary as a one dollar coin, there are countless people like me on the streets. Are you willing to take a less-than-ordinary coin to be your wife? As long as you're willing, I will do my best to give you what you want. Although my contribution is so small that it's not even worth mentioning, as long as you've chosen, I will do anything to exchange for you what you want. If you hold it tight in your hand, it will forever belong to you!"

Murong Xu laughed at how she made it sound like it was very serious. His smile was as bright and dazzling as the countless stars in the sky. It was the first time he heard someone use those words to propose! A one dollar coin, so worthless, yet can be held onto for a lifetime.

"Xuan Xuan, I'm willing, I will forever keep this one dollar coin. Even if one day I end up starving to death, I won't use it to buy a bun. I will hold it in my hand seriously and protect it for my entire life. It belongs to me only."

Murong Yunxi took the coin from her hand and slid the diamond ring onto her ring finger.

"Look at how smug you are! Why are you still talking about forever when you're already starving to death!" Gu Yuxuan teased. Her s.h.i.+ning gaze caught a small glimpse and fell onto her dazzling ring finger. Her heart was overflowing with sweetness and even her smile was getting overly sweet.

All of a sudden, vibrant fireworks suddenly popped off in the sky. It was so bright as if the sky was lit up. The vibrant colors created beautiful reflections on their faces.

Gu Yuxuan pointed at the fireworks and asked, "You prepared this?"

Murong Xu froze for a while and broke into a casual smile. "Perhaps G.o.d is celebrating for us because we are so happy together."

The fireworks were very beautiful but they were also very short-lived. In the blink of an eye, the good things are coming to an end. More often than not, these moments disappear without a trace before people could doc.u.ment it, as if it never happened before.

But it was very cruel for such a beautiful moment to exist suddenly and disappear instantly. After tasting the wonderful moment, it was s.n.a.t.c.hed away instantly. This kind of pain was heart-wrenching.

"Xuan Xuan, I'm a little nervous!" Murong Xu's voice trembled slightly and his expression was stiff.

"Xu, I'm also a little nervous. Do you think your parents will like me?" Gu Yuxuan's heart was pounding rapidly and her palms were sweaty.

"I'm the one that should be nervous, okay? I've already mentioned you to my parents and have shown them your pictures, they are very satisfied. There's absolutely no need for you to be nervous. On the other hand, I'm worried that your dad wouldn't like me. People always say that fathers will make lives difficult when marrying off their daughter, as if their newly-grown cabbage was robbed by someone else's son."

"What are you talking about? Are you a pig? And I'm not a cabbage, okay!"

The duo arrived at the reserved private room. They are going to meet parents from both sides today. It was considered to be their first time meeting the parents. More importantly, they were going to discuss their wedding.

They were at a very grand hotel. They had done enough homework on giving the best pre-impression.

Murong Xu held Gu Yuxuan's hand as they entered the room. Murong Xu's parents were already here. Murong Xu's father was Murong Yunxi's Second Uncle, Murong Haotian.

Murong Haotian was wearing a Tang suit and Zhuang Yaru was wearing a Qipao. The two of them were dressed very presentable, fully showing how much they valued today's meeting. After all, they came from a big family, their etiquette must be perfect.

Murong Xu smiled and introduced to Gu Yuxuan, "Xuan Xuan, this is my father, this is my mother. Don't be nervous, they like you a lot."

"Hi Uncle, hi Aunty! I'm Gu Yuxuan, you can just call me Xuan Xuan or Yu Xuan." Gu Yuxuan's was extremely nervous, but she still tried her best to keep her polite smile. The look of restraint was very evident.

"Haha, Xuan Xuan, come sit over here. Don't be so uptight, we are going to be one family in the future," Murong Haotian smiled and welcomed her. Zhuang Yaru was very generous and had the demeanor of a rich wife. She was a totally different person as compared to how picky she was when she met Murong Yunxi for the first time.

Gu Yuxuan sat down and said apologetically, "Uncle, Aunty, I'm so sorry. My father is on a business trip and is rus.h.i.+ng back by flying tonight. He might probably take a while to reach."

"It's fine, we're early. We have yet to reach the arranged time! It's nothing!" Murong Haotian was very friendly and showed his utmost respect for today's occasion.

"Xuan Xuan, I heard from my Xiao Xu that your father raised you up on his own?" Ya Zhuangru took a sip of tea and asked in a gentle tone. Her voice was so gentle, like an elder taking care of a younger one.

"Yes, my mother divorced my father when I was very young. She went to the United States and never returned again, so I've always been living with my father."

"Then what kind of business is your father doing now?"

"My father runs a small trading company on his own. As to what he does specifically, I've never asked him before."

"Oh, I see! I heard that you grew up with our Xiao Xi?"

"Yes, me and Xiao Xi are best friends since young. We became friends since kindergarten, we can be considered as bosom friends."

"That is so rare! Then our Xiao Xi must have received a lot of care from you since young! We really have to thank you!"

"Oh, that's not the case. Actually, Xiao Xi takes good care of me as well. When my mother left, I was still very young. I was very upset back then and Xiao Xi was the one that accompanied me to walk out of those days."

"Growing up without a mother, you have suffered as a kid."

"Haha, it's alright, I've gotten used to it. My father had it hard. He had to be a father and also a mother while raising me up. At the same time, he also has to deal with his company matters. Actually, I feel that I'm the one pulling him down, causing his business not to flourish. He did not have the energy. Otherwise, it probably could have been better. And because of me, he did not find another woman, in case my step-mom would make my life difficult!"

"Then your father must dote on you a lot!"

"Yes, my father has sacrificed a lot for me, so I want to grow up quickly and honor my father when I have the ability to do so."

"What an obedient and mature child. Is there any relatives on your father's side?"

"Okay, Mom! Stop asking these weird questions. You're like doing a background check."

"Come on, I'm just having a casual talk with Xuan Xuan. We're going to be one family soon, of course we have to know each other!"

"Aunty, it's fine by me. I like to chat with you. I grew up without a mother, you're like my mother."

"Oh my, this child has such a sweet mouth. Xiao Xu, look at others, she's so obedient and mature, so considerate."

"Fine, fine, fine, you guys talk, I need the bathroom."Murong Xu patted Gu Yuxuan's head gently and left the private room.

"Xuan Xuan, Xiao Xi had given birth at such a young age, you've suffered much because of it, right?"

"Oh no, Nian Nian is very obedient and she's very easy to take care of. Xiao Xi basically took care of her on her own, she was the one that had a hard time!"

"You said that Xiao Xi raised her kid on her own, was the child's father not around?"

"Um, about this... Gong Yu didn't know back then."

Ya Zhuangru changed the topic to Murong Yunxi very swiftly and Gu Yuxuan fell into the trap without preparation.

"Oh, how my Xiao Xi has suffered! She had to bring up the child alone and also attend school, that's really not easy! Then did Gong Yu break up with my Xiao Xi back then? Did they only get back together after knowing there's a child?"

"The two of them were separated for a while because of a misunderstanding. After they were separated, Gong Yu searched for Xiao Xi for quite some time. He found her eventually and then learned that there's a child."

"Then is Nian Nian Gong Yu's child? She can't possibly be…"

Gu Yuxuan suddenly realized that the conversation was not going in the right direction, but she also could not embarra.s.s Ya Zhuangru. She pretended to be calm and explained, "Of course she's Gong Yu's child! Nian Nian fell sick some time back and her life was exchanged back by using her father's bone marrow!"

"Oh, I see! You said that Xiao Xi and Gong Yu were separated because of a misunderstanding. Gong Yu had always been searching for Xiao Xi, but she had never left City S. Why didn't he manage to find her? Was Xiao Xi not in City S?"
