The Wealthy and Influential Fiancé has the Ability to Read Mind
Chapter 84
Jiang Miao was going crazy with anger.
That evening, the romantic and extravagant proposal video nearly exploded across all major online platforms.
The clearest footage came from Jiang Miao herself, who recorded and released it. Without her, the proposal between Ye Shuyan and Tang Nuan might not have suddenly become so explosive.
At 6 PM, Jiang Miao started her live broadcast as scheduled. Since she had only been chatting and laughing with Ye Shuchen at home, she felt the format was a bit monotonous.
Especially with the recent videos of Ye Shuyan and Tang Nuan dating at Shengshi Plaza being seen by more and more people, all of whom were calling it excessively sweet and irresistible.
Jiang Miao thought that going out on a date would be more natural and provide a chance to create some sweet moments. So, she switched to a high-definition camera phone and went out for a walk with Ye Shuchen.
The film city was just as lively in the evening, with every working film crew bustling with activity.
Ye Shuchen helped Jiang Miao with the live broadcast equipment, and they chatted and laughed while introducing the film city’s situation and sharing harmless entertainment industry gossip and fun stories. It was quite lively.
Seeing more viewers than usual in the live stream, Jiang Miao felt pleased. Tang Nuan’s sweetness was nothing compared to what they could show.
With this thought in mind, she also wanted to find something to do, and then she noticed a uniquely styled fairy tale castle and her eyes lit up, “What’s that? Let’s go check it out.”
Ye Shuchen followed obediently, smiling indulgently, “Do you like it? I’ll build you one someday. Where would you like to live?”
When the viewers heard this, they immediately felt both sweet and envious. Jiang Miao happily leaned on Ye Shuchen’s shoulder and asked, “Do I get to choose wherever I want?”
Ye Shuchen smiled, “Yes, but there’s already a place that’s ready.”
“Where?”
Ye Shuchen took Jiang Miao’s hand and placed it on his chest, “Here, right here. You will always be my princess.”
The comment section was once again flooded with sweetness, and Jiang Miao playfully hit him while they approached the unique castle. They soon discovered that many people were already gathered around.
From downstairs, they could see the rooftop lit up and sparkling with colorful lights. It looked beautiful.
They could vaguely see a lot of equipment set up. While this wasn’t unusual in such a place, what was unusual was what was being filmed.
Jiang Miao saw some people going inside and decided to follow. Along the way, they ran into several familiar actors who were also there to watch the excitement.
Once inside, everyone was stunned by the dreamlike decorations.
A female actress looked at the swing set and said, “What kind of fairy-tale production team is this? They’re so rich, using real flowers for the set in the middle of winter?”
A staff member who was observing the equipment smiled proudly, “This is nothing. The rooftop is even more beautiful, covered with greenery and flowers.”
The female actress was stunned, “What kind of production are you filming? This is such a big deal!”
The staff member smiled and said, “We’re not filming a show, it’s a proposal.”
“A proposal?!”
This revelation piqued everyone’s interest even more. The elaborate and costly setup for the proposal made people curious.
And since this was a film and television city, it was likely that a big star was behind this grand gesture.
The actress asked, “Who’s doing it?”
The staff member just smiled and said no more.
Another actor looked around and clapped, “Let’s go, the rooftop of the neighboring set is right next to this one. Their night shoot has just finished, so we can see everything from there.”
So, the group headed next door, and Jiang Miao and Ye Shuchen followed along.
As they walked, Jiang Miao said enviously, “I wonder who it is. It seems so thoughtful. That girl must be so happy.”
Ye Shuchen suddenly lifted her chin and kissed her, saying, “Don’t envy others. I’ll make sure you’re even happier.”
Jiang Miao was stunned for a while after the kiss, her cheeks flushed. She gave Ye Shuchen a playful smack and said, “What are you doing? How annoying.”
As if to hide her embarrassment, she quickly focused on the screen.
On the screen, comments were rapidly scrolling by. She responded to some of them, “Engagement? Hmm, it will be soon. We’re planning to hold the engagement ceremony in February next year after the Spring Festival.”
“Whether it will be broadcasted live depends on the situation at that time…”
Just then, she seemed to notice something, “Ye Shuyan’s engagement?”
“Ye Shuyan’s engagement was three and a half years ago. I haven’t even been back home for a year yet, and when I returned, I really didn’t know about it. Hardly anyone in the circle mentioned it…” She looked apologetically at Ye Shuchen.
Ye Shuchen gently patted her head and said, “It’s not your fault. At that time, my big brother’s engagement was just a simple family dinner, nothing too extravagant.” He added with a hint of defensiveness, “It’s not that my brother didn’t value Tang Nuan; he was just too busy.”
“He was launching a new project at that time, so busy that he hardly had time to sleep, practically living in the company.”
“That was when he got the nickname ‘work machine.’ He was quite serious at home, speaking very briefly with everyone. I could hardly imagine him being romantic.”
The comment section quickly filled with people saying that Ye Shuyan didn’t truly care about Tang Nuan, though some disagreed.
[Just because we can’t imagine it doesn’t mean Young Master Ye isn’t capable. Look at how much he dotes on Tang Nuan.]
But most of the viewers of the livestream were fans of Jiang Miao and Ye Shuchen’s CP, so such comments were quickly buried. However, many still questioned Ye Shuyan’s feelings for Tang Nuan.
After all, if he really adored her, how could the engagement have been so perfunctory? “Being busy” was just an excuse, and the fact that three and a half years had passed without a wedding spoke volumes, some argued.
Jiang Miao pretended not to notice those comments, clinging to Ye Shuchen’s arm with a sweet smile. While she said nothing, her expression clearly conveyed to everyone that she was grateful to have found Ye Shuchen.
A new wave of comments filled with admiration and swooning followed, with many stating that if one were to marry, it should be to someone like Ye Shuchen.
Jiang Miao, in a good mood, reached the neighboring rooftop. People who arrived ahead of her had already let out soft gasps of amazement. Jiang Miao quickly switched her camera.
As soon as the lens focused on the opposite rooftop, the screen was flooded with coordinated exclamations.
[Oh my God, this is stunning!]
Jiang Miao’s eyes widened in awe as well.
Especially captivating was the beautiful flower bed nestled among various lush plants, so stunning that it was impossible to look away.
Lying on the bed was a girl. Due to her position, no one could see her face clearly, but her outfit was breathtaking. A light blue gown spread across the bed, her chestnut curls fanned out, and various flowers adorned her hair. She looked like a fairytale princess, one who had slept for a hundred years, lovingly protected by forest spirits.
The scene was so enchanting that several girls at the scene couldn’t help but gasp in excitement. A few even tried to jump in joy, but the nearby staff quickly signaled for silence, reminding everyone to be quiet.
It was then that people noticed something covering the girl’s eyes. Clearly, the whole setup was a surprise from her partner. She seemed to believe she was simply posing for a photo shoot, completely unaware of the real plan.
Realizing this, the crowd collectively fell silent, eager to preserve the romantic atmosphere. The staff on-site started glancing toward the rooftop entrance, signaling that the main event was about to begin.
Everyone instinctively held their breath, curious about who would make their entrance.
The rooftop door opened quietly, and a tall, imposing man stepped inside. Due to the height of the plants and the angle of Jiang Miao’s camera, the man’s face wasn’t immediately visible. However, he was dressed in an elaborate, regal white outfit, resembling a military uniform. His trousers were tucked into black boots, and a broad belt emphasized his slim waist, highlighting his tall and athletic build.
Just his silhouette was enough to stir excitement in the audience.
[Look at that waist and those legs, he must be handsome! Whoever his girlfriend is, she’s so lucky!]
[Jiang Miao’s filming skills are impressive. I’m just watching for fun, but it feels like I’m following a romantic drama full of suspense.]
As the man drew closer, more of his outfit came into view, revealing braided details and tasseled epaulets, adding an air of grandeur and nobility.
[He’s almost here. I don’t dare blink.]
[The bathroom is calling me, but this guy has completely distracted me.]
……
Jiang Miao couldn’t help but stare closely at the screen. Suddenly, she felt Ye Shuchen squeeze her arm as if reassuring her that something unexpected was about to happen.
Before she could even think of what it might be, the answer appeared on her screen. The man walking through the lush greenery lifted his hand to push aside some large leaves, finally stepping into view. His sharp bone structure, deep phoenix eyes, and high-bridged nose combined with a cold and indifferent demeanor, it was Ye Shuyan!
For a brief moment, the online comments froze, followed by a barrage of excited screams.
[Ahhhhhh!]
Those unfamiliar with him were simply stunned by his looks, flooding the chat with questions: Who was this guy? How had they never seen someone so good-looking before?
Meanwhile, those who knew him were not only swooning over his appearance but were also thrilled.
[Ahhhh, more content to enjoy!
[I can’t even count how many times I’ve watched the video from Shengshi Square. I thought I’d have to wait until ‘Double Pursuit’ filmed their family reunion for new moments! This is such a pleasant surprise, thank you, Jiang Miao!]
[See, I told you! Young Master Ye’s lack of romance is only for others, but he’s full of romance for Tang Nuan! You didn’t believe me!]
[What do I do? I don’t even know what Young Master Ye is planning, but just from the setup, I’m already on the verge of tears.]
……
Seeing the flood of comments and the growing number of people explaining Ye Shuyan and Tang Nuan’s relationship to the audience, Jiang Miao bit her lip hard to keep from losing her composure.
She was on the verge of breaking down, how could it be them?! Wasn’t Ye Shuyan supposed to be abroad, recruiting overseas staffs? How could he suddenly appear here and propose?
No, why would he even propose like this? He always despised these so-called “ceremonial gestures,” thinking they were a waste of time and energy.
Jiang Miao felt like these two were deliberately sent to torment her! Watching the growing number of fans flooding her livestream after finding out the truth, her whole body trembled with anger.
She wanted nothing more than to shut off the stream and leave immediately. But she couldn’t as people had already started questioning her.
[By the way, I was going to say earlier, no one even brought up Young Master Ye’s engagement, right? Jiang Miao randomly mentioned it herself. I feel like she’s trying to drag them down.]
[Didn’t expect the slap in the face to come so fast, though?]
[Is the stream going to shut down soon? Please don’t!]
[If she shuts it down now, it just proves she’s guilty, doesn’t it?]
……
So not only could Jiang Miao not leave, but she had to force herself to look at the other side with amazement, praising insincerely, “Wow, Ye Shuyan is really doing something like this? Tang Nuan is so lucky.”
The audience, now reassured that Jiang Miao wouldn’t cut off the stream, paid little attention to her words. All eyes were drawn to the scene unfolding on the opposite rooftop.
The cold and distant man, upon seeing the girl lying on the bed, immediately softened. He sat gently by her side, and even from a distance, the tenderness in his eyes was obvious.
He then smiled softly, slowly leaning down to kiss the girl on the lips. The moment was so beautiful that many girls watching couldn’t help but cover their mouths to stifle their squeals.
The girl lying on the bed, perhaps too stunned by the surprise, remained frozen in place. The man gently removed the silk blindfold from her eyes, kissed her again, and whispered something. It was only then that the girl finally snapped out of her daze, sitting up quickly and wrapping her arms around him in excitement.
The man rested his forehead against hers, smiling indulgently. After saying something else, he handed her his phone. The girl, now holding the phone, began to make a call. One by one, her family members appeared after answering.
This part of the proposal seemed to carry deep meaning. As her family gathered around her, they all looked at her with love, making her cry tears of joy. The entire family smiled affectionately at her, while the man’s gaze never once left her.
Even though the crowd couldn’t hear what was being said, it seemed like everyone could deeply understand the emotions of the girl.
So, when the man finally knelt down on one knee, not only did the people on-site cheer, but those watching online couldn’t hold back their excitement either.
The sudden drone show that lit up the sky elevated the proposal to its climax.
[Ahhhhh! Forget about the girl, I’m about to cry from the emotions!]
[I screamed so loud that my mom came in and slapped me, but even that couldn’t suppress my excitement. Why can’t I meet a man like this?]
……
[Is Ye Shuyan trying to knock us out with sweetness because he can’t frequently appear in public?]
[My boyfriend just asked why I’m crying like I’m the one being proposed to. If he had even a tenth of this thoughtfulness, I’d marry him right now!]
[I’m willing to call this the pinnacle of proposals. Whether it’s the effort put in or the cost, it’s hard to imagine anyone topping this.]
[Wealthy people truly do find love. Can someone tell me how much these costs so I can make my girlfriend give up on her dreams?]
……
It was only at this point that people began to notice the intricately designed setting for this engagement.
[Forget everything else, just the decorations here must have cost over a million. And those drones? There must be at least a thousand of them, which alone would cost two or three million. As for the greenery and photography, I’m not sure… experts, please weigh in…]
Jiang Miao didn’t even know how she managed to finish her livestream. However, shortly after it ended, the video she recorded was already circulating on major social media platforms.
It sparked even more discussion, with netizens dissecting the effort and expenses of this proposal using metaphorical magnifying glasses.
In comparison, her own planned engagement ceremony no longer seemed to captivate anyone’s interest.
The real problem now was that the engagement ceremony she and Ye Shuchen were preparing suddenly looked utterly bland by comparison. If they went ahead with the livestream, it would inevitably be compared to Ye Shuyan’s proposal. But if they didn’t livestream, people would speculate.
Furious, Jiang Miao threw her phone. Why? Why did those two always seem to haunt her life like ghosts?
Meanwhile, Ye Shuyan and Tang Nuan were completely oblivious to Jiang Miao’s meltdown and the online discussions about them. At that moment, they were tangled up in a passionate embrace on their hotel bed, lost in each other.
Ooops, I actually thought this one is complete already. Can’t eait for the next translations.
