Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

Chapter 493: Chapter 343: Yes, You’re That Man_3

Fortunately, Lu Cong was engrossed in his own emotions and hadn’t noticed her change in expression.

He took a small exquisite box from his pocket, opened it, and there was a shiny diamond ring inside.

Was he really going to propose to her?

Murong Qian stood frozen in place.

“Qianqian—”

He called her name again, his heart pounding madly. He had prepared a long proposal speech, but at this moment, he could no longer remember a single line, only managing to utter the simplest three words: “Marry me!”

The man’s deeply affectionate voice entered her ears. Murong Qian regained her senses, her gaze falling onto his extraordinarily handsome face, and for a moment, she wanted impulsively to nod and say yes.

But immediately thoughts flooded her mind about the many unresolved issues between them. Even if she still had lingering feelings for him, she couldn’t bring herself to marry him without reservations.

Thinking this, Murong Qian flatly refused: “Sorry, I don’t want to marry you.”

“Qianqian?”

Although Lu Cong didn’t have full confidence in this proposal, he certainly didn’t expect her to reject him so decisively.

She obviously had feelings for him…

“Lu Cong, we are not suited for each other.”

Murong Qian took a deep breath, trying to speak in the calmest tone possible.

Lu Cong disagreed, “I think we’re perfectly suited for each other.”

With that, he lifted the diamond ring in front of her again, his attitude extremely humble: “Qianqian, I can make you the happiest woman in the world. Marry me, alright?”

Murong Qian hardens her heart: “You should go, my answer is already very clear. Lu Cong, we are not on the same path. It’s better to think of us as… fate without luck.”

“Is it because of that man?”

Lu Cong couldn’t help but ask.

“Who?”

Murong Qian was slightly taken aback.

From the beginning to the end, there was only one man for her, what had he misunderstood?

“That man you loved deeply, but who abandoned you. You still can’t forget him, can you?”

As he asked this, Lu Cong felt his heart ache so much it became hard to breathe.

He had of course personally investigated Murong Qian and knew that she once had a relationship, but he could never uncover any information about that man.

However, everyone has a past, and he doesn’t mind.

As long as she could move on and truly love him for the rest of her life.

Nevertheless, at this moment, her firm rejection of his proposal made Lu Cong speculate that she was still in love with that heartless man, Han.

And he, Lu Cong, was never part of her heart from the beginning.

Seeing that Lu Cong had misunderstood, and so thoroughly at that, Murong Qian felt extremely complicated.

She wanted to tell him, yes, you are that man, but the pain she had once suffered made her unable to get over this hurdle, especially since he had forgotten their past so completely…

Hate!

She hated him…

She still hadn’t truly let go, truly forgiven him…

“Okay! I understand.”

Seeing her biting her lip tightly, her expression pained, Lu Cong’s heart ached more.

Because he knew, he had gotten his answer.

He had lost, lost miserably…

He robotically put the diamond ring away, stood up, and took heavy steps toward the exit, leaving step by step.

Murong Qian stood in place, seeing his tall figure convey deep loss and sadness. Her lips moved, as if she wanted to call out to him, but in the end, she swallowed her words.

Lu Cong had put on his shoes and was about to leave. Before closing the door, he looked back at her and gave her a gentle smile: “Qianqian, I wish you happiness! From now on, I won’t bother you anymore.”

Having said this, seeing that Murong Qian had no response, he couldn’t help but mock himself a little in his heart. He opened the door and walked out without looking back.

The door closed with a bang, separating them into two different spaces.

At this moment, Murong Qian’s heart became inexplicably panicked.

She suddenly had a terrible premonition that if she didn’t hold onto him now, she might really lose him forever…

Which is more important, hating him or loving him?

In fact, she always had the answer, it was just that she couldn’t get over that hurdle in her heart.

As the seconds ticked away, the panic in Murong Qian’s heart continued to deepen.

No, she had to get Lu Cong back.

Thinking this, she didn’t even bother to change her shoes, grabbed her phone and rushed out.

Unfortunately, to her dismay, all three elevators in the elevator hall were going down from her floor, and even worse, one had just closed its doors.

She called Lu Cong, but no one answered.

Murong Qian rushed into the stairwell without hesitation, running down the stairs.

Thanks to her dance practice, she had good stamina and managed to run to the first floor without even panting.

Just as she ran out of the first floor lobby, from a distance, she saw Lu Cong walking towards the entrance of the compound.

“Lu Cong—”

She called him out loud.

But for some reason, Lu Cong hadn’t heard her and was just walking away.

Seeing this, Murong Qian chased after him.

“Lu Cong—”
