She let go of Yan Wuxi and walked out of the crowd. Everyone was looking at them, hoping to witness a heartwarming scene of a prince and princess coming together, making their wait an entire afternoon worthwhile.
Su Ziceng lifted her head gently and called out to the lofty Hang Yishao: "Yishao."
Hang Yishao hurriedly knelt on one knee, poking his face through the railing of the cruise ship, eager to hear what Su Ziceng was about to say.
A sudden shock near his ear, the words "Get the hell down" blasted through his eardrums. Even Su Qingzhang, who was quietly observing from the side, was startled by Su Ziceng’s roar.
The people on the shore knew imdiately that it was over. Who responds to a marriage proposal like that? The revolution had not yet succeeded, the young still needed to work hard.
After hearing this, Hang Yishao dejectedly got off the ship, and when he approached Su Ziceng, he magically pulled out a bouquet of roses and pleaded pitifully, "Don’t be mad, I did get Uncle Su’s permission." At critical monts, Hang Yishao knew that using elders as a shield always worked.
As for the phrase "knock it off", Su Ziceng didn’t dare to shout that at Su Qingzhang. In her previous life, she could throw tantrums and lash out tyrannically at Su Qingzhang. But now, after all the trials and tribulations, the father-daughter bond between her and Su Qingzhang had truly solidified.
Seeing a spirited Su Qingzhang, Su Ziceng’s anger subsided, and the people behind her also dispersed, signaling the end of this farce.
Of course, the farce didn’t end there. Hang Yishao’s marriage proposal did not win the beauty’s heart, but it certainly made a splash.
The massive catamaran, funded jointly by the near-bankrupt Su Family and Hang Family, sent shock waves through all of Mo City.
The dia was the first to react to the news. Reversing their fierce attacks when the Su Family was on the verge of bankruptcy, they scrambled to unearth the resurgence of the Su Family through various channels. Within a day, the pervasive tentacles of the dia had uncovered all aspects of this yet-to-be officially operational cruise ship.
The Hang Family announced that this catamaran was part of a seaside resort’s anities. Besides spending a few months a year docked on the shores of Mo City, it would mostly be sailing. For Z country, which was in developnt, this integration with an international trend of vacationing was a significant advancent.
The cruise ship jointly funded by Su and Hang was not just a facade as it seed from the outside; it combined transportation, accommodation, dining, and entertainnt functions, and could be considered a mobile "entertainnt castle".
The official launch of the cruise ship was tentatively scheduled for New Year’s Day of next year. Such a unique project exhilarated the face-loving citizens. Even before the detailed operation plan was announced, Hang Family’s newly listed stock price had surged by five percent.
"We combined the seaside resort model with integrated managent, creating a brand-new vacation mode for Z country and the world, exploring both sea and land to provide a completely different travel model," Hang Yishao declared in the newspaper the following day. "During the initial purchase of the ship, thanks to the strong support of Chairman Su. To ensure the ship’s normal operation during Su Family’s bankruptcy episode, we had to keep Su Family’s shareholding information secret, but now is the ti to make it public."
At the end of the article, the reporter also attached that proposal photo—whether it was authorized by Hang Yishao or provided by soone just joining the excitent was unknown.
As Su Ziceng looked at the newspaper, she felt as though subrged in fog, while Su Qingzhang beside her had an inscrutable look. Hang Yishao, the young man, was very adept. That proposal on the cruise ship the night before was sothing Su Qingzhang had not been aware of in advance.
Hang Yishao first made the shareholding public and then made a "marriage proposal declaration" in front of tens of thousands of people. The shared cruise of Su and Hang had dazzled everyone. Considering such a passionate yet strategic approach, Su Qingzhang wondered how much longer his daughter could resist.
"Ziceng," Su Qingzhang began, signaling, "Co with to the old villa. I would like to retrieve so luggage."
Without Su Qingzhang’s villa, it could no longer be called the Su Family’s. This, both Su Ziceng and Su Qingzhang were well aware of.
If possible, Su Ziceng wouldn’t want to return to the Su Family. After the citywide commotion of the proposal, her stance was no longer rely her own."
All won hope for a proposal to rember for a lifeti, especially one witnessed by hundreds of eyes amongst the jeering crowds.
If it had been before, Su Ziceng would have been moved to tears, but after all the pain and hardships, tears had beco too precious for her.
This proposal had co at an inopportune ti.
Truth be told, the feelings of love between her and Hang Yishao were gone. He had proposed before, during the kidnapping incident, and by then, Su Ziceng’s heart had room for Pello.
Now... now she wasn’t sure if her heart had made room for that anymore.
Rejecting him would an slapping Hang Yishao in the face in front of everyone. But could she really accept him?
"Ziceng, you must follow your true feelings, no one will force you to make a decision against your wishes," Su Qingzhang said solemnly, "Neither I nor Hang Yishao can do that."
Yes, she just needed to follow that faint voice deep within her heart, but just... (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please co to Qidian (qidian) and cast your recomndation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
