As soon as Special Assistant Bei Yuan saw his boss in the morning, he immediately knew that things would not go as smoothly for him and everyone else in the company.

The unhappy look on his boss's face was too evident that everyone around them started to lower their head and avoided him.

Assistant Bei Yuan had a lot of speculation going on in his mind. However, at the end of the day, he concluded that his boss's terrible mood might be associated with his love life.

After all, each time that the company was facing trouble, his boss's mood was not this bad. In fact, each time that the company seemed as if they were about to lose some money, President Lu's mood would brighten up. The look on his face would show that he was enjoying the challenge.

Of course, at the end of it, the company would not lose their money and instead gain a lot of return from their setback.

After analyzing this matter for a while, Special Assistant Bei Yuan was very sure of his initial doubt..

As he was carrying a few documents to his boss, Special Assistant Bei Yuan decided to peek at his boss's desktop screen to confirm his suspicion.

The serious look on his boss's expression would make it seem as if his boss was working hard for the company's matter.

However, he soon saw something very surprising.

Looking at the forum that his boss was browsing at this time, Assistant Bei Yuan knew that he had found out an incredible secret. His boss was planning to propose to Miss Song!

Before his boss would find out that he had seen what he was not supposed to see, Bei Yuan quickly turned around to make his escape.

As he leaned on the wall outside the president's office, Bei Yuan could feel his heartbeat accelerate.

Meanwhile... back in the office, Lu Xun continued to browse through the forum for a long time.

He had sat behind his desk for the last two hours to browse through the internet. Half an hour ago, Lu Xun had finally registered an account and made a post.

The others had quickly replied to his question. However, Lu Xun thought that their replies were not helping him at all. These bunch of netizens... all they did was laugh at him for his failure to propose.

No matter how much he had explained to them that it was not a proposal, the bunch of bored people would not believe his words. They were persistent in telling him that he had failed.

At this time, Lu Xun was suppressing his urge to pick up his computer and smash it to the ground.

Or should he let someone track down those people and beat him instead?

Lu Xun was starting to get depressed.

Just a while ago, his sister had called to say that she had arrived at her home in C Country. While they were on the phone, Lu Xun decided to talk to his sister about his question to his girlfriend last night.

Who would have guessed that the girl would start to laugh out loud?

It made him wonder if they were real siblings.

However, Lu An Ran had told him that he needed to be patient.

If he continued to press her on this matter, Song Xing Xing might be frightened instead.

As compared to him, Song Xing Xing was still very young. She had graduated a few years ago and was now enjoying her life to the fullest.

Before she had met Lu Xun, Song Xing Xing was aiming to study more about video editing from her seniors. It would make sense that she had not thought about marriage.

At this time, the only thing he should do was to slowly tempt her into that direction. He should make it until she was unable to escape him.

However, his sister did not elaborate on this matter. Her son, Jia Xuan had come home from school, and she needed to spend time with him.

In the end, Lu Xun decided to turn to the netizen.

After waiting for his answer for a while, Lu Xun was planning to give up. However, it was at this time that someone had given him the answer that he wanted.

His eyes lit up as he started to read the poster's suggestions.

...

After her working hours ended, Song Xing Xing said her goodbyes to her colleagues before she snuck out to leave from the side door.

Seeing that the familiar vehicle was parked at the usual place, the corner of her lips tilted up slightly.

As she pushed the glass door open, Lu Xun alighted from his vehicle and walked around the car to help Song Xing Xing with the door. Once she had slid into the passenger's seat, Lu Xun then went into the driver's seat before he turned to his girlfriend again.

"How is your work?

"

Song Xing Xing studied his expression. A breath of relief escaped upon seeing that her boyfriend was no longer as unhappy as he was when he left her apartment last night.

"It was alright,

" Song Xing Xing replied with a shrug.

Just then, Lu Xun leaned forward to peck on her lips, startling her. His lips tilted up when he saw the dazed look on her face.

"Let's go and eat out today, alright?

"

"Oh.

" Song Xing Xing glanced at the person beside her and thought that he seemed to be in a good mood instead.

Her heart skipped a beat as she thought about their conversation last night.

However, Liu Yu Sheng had agreed that she should wait for some time before she should mention it again.

"Where are we going?

" Song Xing Xing asked.

"It was rare for us to eat outside.

"

"Mhm...

" Lu Xun nodded.

"You will know later. Bei Yuan recommended this restaurant and said that the food and atmosphere were great. I have already booked a private room. This time, we don't have to sneak around to eat.

"

Song Xing Xing smiled. Seeing the secretive look on his face, Song Xing Xing decided to follow his lead. As long as he did not think too much about their conversation last night, she would be at ease.

She did not want things to be awkward between them.

After a while, the car finally stopped in front of a building. Song Xing Xing alighted with Lu Xun, and the couple walked to the restaurant together.
