1821 Public Proposal (1/2)
”What the f*ck…” Helian Tulong cursed under his breath.
Never in his life had he been so embarrassed before. Right now, he wished a hole would suddenly appear in the ground to swallow him!
Feng Zhongwu and Yun Changxia were equally flustered.
They had all thought that Luo Puti was coming towards them and even made a big show of it.
Instead, she went right past them. That was like the slap of the century!
There really was nothing more humiliating than this!
Their eyes followed Luo Puti to see who she was headed for.
Their little hearts nearly exploded when Luo Puti broke through the circle of men and sprinted towards the man in the center – the one who was about to be attacked!
”Xiaobei! It's… It is really you…” Luo Puti stammered.
Her beautiful eyes fixated on the man in front of her with a mixture of shock and joy!
Those frosty eyes reddened and grew misty.
”Silly girl! It is me! Who else could I be?” Chen Xiaobei gave her a lazy grin.
”It's… really you!” Luo Puti said in almost a whisper before throwing herself into Chen Xiaobei's arms, tears spilling down her face.
They were tears of joy and relief!
All that tremendous pressure she had endured for such a long time and the compromise she had to make with the cruel fate she was destined for was suddenly relieved!
She had kept her cool and composure front even with her father, holding herself together when she really felt like falling apart so that no one would know how she really felt!
To protect Saint Duke starfield, Luo Puti was willing to sacrifice her happiness, bearing all that pain and grievance on her own!
Upon seeing Chen Xiaobei, however, Puti abandoned the mask she had put on for so long and allowed her true emotions to be unleashed because she knew that Chen Xiaobei was willing to carry all that burden with her.
Although they had not seen each other for a long time, Luo Puti knew that the man in front of her was the same Chen Xiaobei she knew!
This man would never stop being faithful! He would never let her down!
”What the f*ck is this…” Helian Tulong, Feng Chongwu, and Yu Changxiao stared in bafflement.
Everyone else was equally perplexed.
Why did Luo Puti embrace Chen Xiaobei?
Helian Tulong was supposed to be the fuma!
Even if Luo Puti had decided to do away with their original plan, she should have at least chosen the fuma according to the betrothal gifts, right?
Instead of choosing the three highly respected and prestigious childes who had all brought expensive gifts, she chose the weasel who came to the betrothal contest empty-handed!
It made no sense! It was completely irrational!
Is this Luo Puti another counterfeit princess?
After her tears gradually slowed to a stop, she began to calm down, letting go of Chen Xiaobei and muttered softly, ”Xiaobei… I'm sorry. For the Luo family…For all the innocent citizens of Saint Duke… I cannot choose you!”
When Helian Tulong heard this, he grinned cunningly. ”Hey, Chen! Did you hear that? No matter what, Princess Puti will never choose you! You are a loser! I, Helian Tulong, am the winner! I have the last laugh after all!”
