Lu Yao did not expect Ariel to agree to hold a clarification press conference.

She had talked to Ariel before, and was made to feel ashamed by Ariel's words.

When Chi An first entered the film and television industry, without Ariel's financial support behind him, Chi An would not have achieved his current career heights.

Ariel is actually Chi An's benefactor, and Lu Yao has always been grateful to her.

But now, two people who should have been together happily have fallen to the point where even their one meeting would be posted online and fermented endlessly because of one wrong step.

Ariel appeared at the press conference. When Lu Yao saw her, she handed over a printed speech with a bit of apology and shame.

This was a clarification press conference held by Ariel personally. Lu Yao could not appear in front of the cameras of the reporters. She gave Ariel a few words backstage and then left.

Ariel just nodded the whole time and didn't say a word to Lu Yao.

From Lu Yao's point of view, her choice was not wrong.

No one wants to see an artist that they have worked so hard to train fall from grace because of a single mistake.

Ariel doesn't blame anyone but herself for choosing the wrong path in the first place, which led to the current situation.

I took a quick look at the speech, which explained the situation of the day, both true and false.

Chi An went to the hospital for a physical examination and happened to meet Ariel who went to the hospital to treat her foot injury. The Mu family and the Ai family have cooperated in the business world. Although they are no longer an engaged couple, they are still good friends. Chi An gentlemanly sent Ariel home and was photographed by a paparazzi with ulterior motives and posted online to lead the trend.

Facing the crazy flashing lights and countless cameras, Ariel calmly read the contents of her speech.

Suddenly, a discordant figure appeared at the press conference.

He stood on the outskirts of the crowded crowd of reporters, holding a red jewelry box above his head.

He shouted loudly to Ariel who was reading the script in a formulaic manner on the stage.

"Ariel, marry me!"

Six words, each one solemn and powerful.

All the reporters turned around immediately to see the person's face clearly, and all the cameras and microphones changed direction.

"It's Ning An! Ning An!"

The reporters screamed loudly and swarmed around Chi An.

Chi An's eyes were always focused on one person, looking at Ariel on the stage, who knelt on one knee and opened the exquisite ring box in full view of everyone.

There were screams coming from all around.

"Oh my god, Ning An is proposing to Ariel!"

"What kind of clarification press conference is this? It's clearly a proposal scene!"

"It's so romantic and exciting!"

"Is Ning An destroying his own future and career in the entertainment industry?"

Facing the noisy discussions around him, Chi An pretended to be deaf to them. The only thing in his world was the shocked and frightened little woman on the stage.

After Ariel panicked, her first thought was to run away.

However, the quick-eyed and quick-handed reporters had blocked Ariel's way.

How could they miss such an exciting proposal scene?

Regardless of whether the proposal is successful or not, the entire process must be broadcast live.

Ariel was pushed in front of Chi An by everyone.

Amid the noisy commotion, Ariel's mind went blank.

"You...you're crazy, get up quickly!" Ariel pulled Chi An, but Chi An refused to get up. He held up the ring and knelt on one knee stubbornly.

Ariel was so anxious that she was about to cry.

She didn't want Chi An to ruin his own future, and she didn't want him to make such a big sacrifice for her.

She was not afraid of being scolded, but she was afraid that Chi An would be scolded.

Chi An is such a good person, he should be treated kindly by the world and should not become the target of netizens' abuse.

Lu Yao didn't expect Chi An to be so rebellious and break into the press conference to propose.

She had just left the press conference when she received a call from her assistant, saying that Chi An had just rushed out and seemed to have gone to the press conference, so Lu Yao hurried back.

She wanted to take Chi An away. The reporters surrounded Chi An so tightly that Lu Yao couldn't get in.

She tried to call Chi An twice outside, but the noisy voices of the reporters completely drowned out her voice.

Lu Yao was outside the crowd, running around anxiously.

Chi An has already risked his life.

Previously, he wanted to get a marriage certificate with Ariel first and keep his marriage secret, but was strongly opposed by Lu Yao and Ariel. He has already backed down and will take a break for a while.

Although this was an accident, it made Chi An more determined. If he couldn't marry Ariel, he would rather give up his current career.

The reporters saw Chi An's persistence and determination, were moved by Chi An, and began to urge Ariel to agree quickly, and shouted slogans at the scene.

"Promise him, promise him, promise him!"

Ariel looked around blankly, and suddenly she gained courage from the sound of slogans, which slowly filled her empty heart.

She looked down at Chi An who was still kneeling on the ground and asked.

"No regrets?"

Chi An nodded, his eyes burning, "No regrets!"

Ariel's blue eyes were filled with a layer of crystal mist. She stretched out her hand and spoke loudly to Chi An with a choked voice.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Chi An was so excited that he almost cried. He helped Ariel put on the diamond ring with trembling hands, then stood up and hugged Ariel in his arms.

Ariel hugged Chi An tightly, and both of them cried.

The reporters were so moved that some people at the scene actually shed tears. Then there was high-fives and shouts of "Give me a kiss!"

"A kiss, a kiss, a kiss, a kiss!"

Seeing that the situation was completely out of control, Lu Yao no longer had the energy to rush forward to stop it. She stepped back step by step, with a look of despair on her face.

After the reporters dispersed.

Chi An held Ariel's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that Ariel would fly away if he loosened his grip a little.

They saw Lu Yao, who was sitting on a stone pier beside the car with a pale face, and slowly stopped.

Lu Yao didn't say anything and didn't look at them.

They didn't say anything either, just looked at Lu Yao quietly, waiting for Lu Yao to speak.

Lu Yao took out a thin lady's cigarette from her bag, lit it, put it in her mouth and took a puff.

Lu Yao smokes, but she is not addicted to it. She only smokes a cigarette to refresh herself when she is in a bad mood, under a lot of work pressure or staying up late.

When she smokes, she usually takes a light puff, holds the cigarette between her fingers, and then takes another light puff after a while. She will smoke a cigarette for a long time.

But today, she took big puffs and finished the cigarette in just a few puffs.

She took out another one and was about to light it when Chi An snatched her lighter away.

Lu Yao looked up at Chi An, raised her hand, and silently ordered Chi An to return the lighter to her.

Chi An clenched the lighter in his hand, and finally gave it back to Lu Yao.

Lu Yao lit the cigarette in her mouth, squinted her eyes that were sore from the smoke, wiped the tears that seeped from the corners of her eyes, and finally spoke.

"Our fate has ended. You should pack up and sort out the matters concerning the penalty for breach of contract. I will not follow you on these matters anymore! I want to rest for a few days."

In the past two years, Lu Yao has been working intensively with Chi An and has not had a good rest.

Before, I had a goal in mind and was full of energy, I didn’t feel tired at all, but now, all of a sudden, I lost all my energy, and every cell in my body is screaming with fatigue.

Chi An lowered his head, and after a while, he uttered a low voice, "Sister Lu Yao, I'm sorry."

Lu Yao didn't respond to Chi An's words, and looked at Ariel, "Will you make him happy?"

Ariel hugged Chi An's arm and said firmly, "Definitely!"

Lu Yao nodded and stood up slowly, as if she had aged several years in an instant. She spoke solemnly and walked towards her car.

"bless all of you!"
