Chapter 969 - 199: Proposal (Part 15)
After all, with her skinny frame, if Mr. Gu were to use force, she would basically be done for.
Geng Yi saw Rong Sinan appear on the high platform, and his eyes went blank.
Didn’t he say before that he didn’t like to show himself in public?
Moreover, even if he wanted to go public, did he not need to inform his old classmate and subordinate of over ten years?
Geng Yi felt shocked and thoroughly ignored!
Tang Yige was also dumbfounded when she saw Rong Sinan on stage.
Rong Sinan spotted Tang Yige in the crowd, and his gaze was deep and dark.
At the moment when their eyes met, Tang Yige couldn’t help but clench her fists lightly.
Faintly.
She felt like he was about to do something...
Rong Sinan fixed his gaze on Tang Yige for a long while before retracting it, sweeping a glance over the crowd below who displayed astonished expressions, his voice calm, "Good evening, everyone."
As soon as Rong Sinan spoke, the audience erupted.
"Oh my god, is this really the Young Master Rong?"
"He’s actually the boss behind Shengge, this is shocking."
"The Rong Family is planning to monopolize all industries in Z City!"
"Could the Young Master Rong be that mysterious person always strategizing behind Shengge?"
"Eighty percent likely!"
"..."
The surrounding voices rose and fell, but Tang Yige had no heart to listen, her eyes and mind were only filled with that man with a refined aura standing on the stage.
"Today is the fifteenth anniversary of Shengge, it’s a good day."
Rong Sinan spoke slowly, his voice magnetic and graceful, like a mountain stream flowing gently past the ear.
The originally noisy banquet hall grew silent again, eyes fixed on the man standing above.
Rong Sinan’s handsome and gentle demeanor, with faintly colored thin lips curving slightly, "On a day like this, if we don’t do something special, it would feel regrettable. Everyone knows my law firm’s name is ’Shengge’, and most people probably think it’s named as such to hope the firm’s reputation soars, like a song reaching the sky. In fact, it isn’t so."
Pausing here, Rong Sinan’s clear and gentle eyes settled on that person looking at him dazedly, the corner of his mouth curved up faintly, "The reason for naming it ’Shengge’ is simply because my beloved has a ’Ge’ in her name."
Tang Yige’s heart tightened, her eyes instantly turning red.
She never knew the law firm was named ’Shengge’ because of... this.
"A ’Ge’ in the name? Who is it?"
"Ge? Among the noble girls, whose name has Ge in it?"
"...Ah, isn’t it..."
"Tang Yige?"
"..."
At this moment, Tang Yige couldn’t hide anymore.
Every eye turned towards her.
Yet at this moment, Tang Yige felt no awkwardness because her heart was wrapped in shock and emotion.
Rong Sinan fixed his gaze on Yige deeply, his gaze as clear as water and gentle as the wind, "I’ve known a woman with ’Ge’ in her name since I was three, up to my thirty-six years now, over the thirty-three years, this woman with ’Ge’ in her name has never disappeared from my heart. Shengge, like my love for her, has only increased over the years. Shengge has its current brilliance because I don’t allow my love for her to diminish or disappear. Tang Yige... I love you, never changed."
Tang Yige’s tears poured down like rain.
This man, in such a setting, gave her such a high-profile confession.
Is he trying to make her cry to death?!
The grievances Yige felt when he didn’t come to pick her and left her alone to face those strange looks and harsh words all vanished at this moment.
She only felt touched, even... happier.
"Is it really Tang Yige?!"
"Didn’t Tang Yige use despicable means to get into his bed five years ago? What’s going on now?"
"I can’t understand it either. Didn’t Young Master Rong marry Tang Yige’s younger sister Tang Ruan? If he really liked the elder sister so much, why marry the younger? Wouldn’t that mean the sisters share a husband? Young Master Rong is planning to enjoy the blessing of two!"
"Yes. Back then, Tang Yige tried every means to climb into her future brother-in-law’s bed the day before her younger sister Tang Ruan’s wedding to Young Master Rong, causing a huge uproar. Tang Yige was even kicked out of her home by her own father, who announced at a press conference that he would sever the father-daughter relationship. Now Young Master Rong is doing this? I really don’t understand."
"Could this relationship get any more chaotic?!"
"In my opinion, there might have been more to the story back then. Young Master Rong openly expressing his love now is the best counter to that incident."
"Young Master Rong said it himself, he’s loved Tang Yige for over thirty years, even naming Shengge after her. So it seems the situation back then wasn’t that simple either."
"Whether or not there was more to it, it doesn’t change the fact that Young Master Rong was involved with the two sisters from the Tang Family. Young Master Rong sure is playing it well."
"..."
All sorts of voices in the banquet hall could no longer cause any emotional stir within Tang Yige.
This man, not hesitating to put himself in the eye of the storm, only wants them to be together openly from now on.
His love and thoughtfulness, no one else needs to understand, as long as she understands, it is enough.
Rong Sinan looked at Tang Yige, his gaze full of deep affection, and amidst the murmuring voices, he spoke once more, "I’ve only truly loved one woman, Tang Yige. And my marriage with Tang Ruan was merely a formal one. Moreover, Tang Ruan and I have been divorced for several months now."
These words inevitably caused another round of murmurs and discussions.
Once the noise began to fade, Rong Sinan spoke again, "Yige and I separated due to misunderstandings before, but those misunderstandings have now been clarified. So, why can’t two people truly in love be together again?"
With that, Rong Sinan’s expression suddenly became serious, his eyes slightly narrowing, and he raised his voice slightly, "On such a splendid day as today, I, Rong Sinan, announce that I am giving all my shares in Shengge to the woman I love the most, Tang Yige... as an engagement gift."
Engagement?!
Tang Yige widened her eyes, staring at Rong Sinan in shock.
But the attention of the banquet hall’s crowd wasn’t on "engagement," but on Rong Sinan’s statement of giving all his Shengge shares to Tang Yige.
This, this is no different from giving Shengge to Tang Yige?!
True love it is!
Otherwise, who’d be so generous?
All the women’s looks towards Yige once more carried varying degrees of envy and... heartbreak.
Ah, jealousy to the point of heartbreak!
Originally.
Could Tang Yige’s life turn around any more?!
The mistress everyone despised, in the blink of an eye, found true love, and became a "dominant female CEO"!
Mu Yan: "Wuwu, Uncle Rong is so handsome so handsome so handsome."
Jin Jumo: "Big Brother is so romantic~~~"
Nie Xiaoxing: "Sigh. The legendary somebody else’s."
Xiao Nanqing: "..." Wants to hit someone!
Rong Mochen: "..." Wants to hit someone!
Gu Yan: "..." Wants to hit someone!
Huo Shaojun, Huo Chengjin: "..." Indifferent faces.
"Now, let’s invite Miss Tang Yige to the stage, shall we?" Liao Wei looked at Tang Yige with flattery.
How could he not be fawning?
This is his future boss, after all!
Flattering and currying favor should start early!
Tang Yige kept shedding tears, pouting her lips, and looked at Rong Sinan.
Rong Sinan raised his eyebrows, encouragingly looking at Tang Yige.
Tang Yige sniffled, lifted her skirt, and walked towards the stage.
Upon seeing this, Rong Sinan hurried to meet her at the stairs.
As Tang Yige took step after trembling step upwards, she tripped on the last step and almost took a nosedive.
Luckily, Rong Sinan caught her in time.
Otherwise, she would have made a complete fool of herself tonight, wouldn’t she?
Yet, being seen by someone was quite embarrassing, wasn’t it?
Tang Yige covered half her face, and as soon as she was on stage, she was pampered into Rong Sinan’s embrace, who gently patted her back with a small smile, "Silly."
"So embarrassing, boo..." Tang Yige cried.
Rong Sinan chuckled, "It was only me who saw, rest assured."
"It’s even more embarrassing if you saw." Tang Yige said petulantly.
Rong Sinan just smiled, hugged her, then held her hand, guiding Tang Yige steadily to the center stage microphone.
