Chapter 35
The Big Shot Proposes

Night, at the Kang family dinner table.

“Is A Guang still unwilling to come out for dinner?” Everyone was waiting for Da Lao Guang to come out for dinner.

But Da Lao Guang just wouldn’t come out.

“You too, what are you doing? What are you introducing people for? You think you’re so capable? Then why don’t you go be a matchmaker.” Ah Zong pointed at his second sister-in-law and cursed loudly.

Everyone knew that the second sister-in-law had introduced Huang Bo to Xiang Lan.

“It was Dad who told me to do it.” The second sister-in-law quickly shifted the blame to Kang Bo.

Dad's face looked bad.

Everyone looked at Kang Bo.

But they didn’t dare to say anything. Kang Bo was, after all, the head of the family.

But Mom was brave enough to speak up.

“Old man, if A Guang suffers any misfortune, I won’t let you off the hook.” Mom warned him.

These children were her bottom line.

She had raised them with painstaking care from a young age, investing all her heart and soul, and she absolutely couldn’t let anything happen to them.

Her love for them surpassed her love for Kang Bo.

“Should I go and persuade him again?” Kang Er Zheng knew that an opportunity had come.

“Yes, A Zheng, persuade A Guang.” Mom also pleaded.

Kang Er Zheng got up and went to A Guang’s room.

“A Guang, it’s me.” Kang Er Zheng knocked on the door and said softly.

A Guang opened the door.

“Let’s begin.” Kang Er Zheng said.

Da Lao Guang nodded.

He picked up a glass of wine and took a sip, then splashed some wine on himself, and a strong smell of alcohol filled the air.

“Wait, when they come, use this bottle filled with water, and just drink like you’re gulping it down, okay?” Kang Er Zheng instructed him.

“Okay.” A Guang nodded.

“Just follow what I tell you to do after that.” Kang Er Zheng said.

A Guang nodded.

“Brother, Sister-in-law, it’s not good, A Guang is going to do something rash.” Kang Er Zheng shouted loudly.

Kang Bo and the others in the dining room immediately rushed over.

“A Guang.” Mom rushed over after hearing it, her whole body filled with worry.

As soon as she entered, she smelled a strong odor of alcohol.

“What a strong smell of alcohol.” The second sister-in-law covered her nose and said.

“A Guang, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare Mom, what will Mom do if something happens to you?” Mom held A Guang’s hand and said fearfully.

A Guang remained silent, holding the wine bottle and taking a huge gulp.

“A Guang, don’t drink anymore, if you keep drinking like this, something will happen, you’ll get sick.” Kang Er Zheng said deliberately.

A Guang continued to drink without stopping.

Kang Bo quickly snatched the bottle from him.

“A Guang, is it true that you really like that Xiang Lan.” Kang Bo also looked worried.

“What if I do like her? We’re already broken up.” A Guang didn’t look at Kang Bo.

“You old fool, do you want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?” Mom also glared at Kang Bo angrily.

Kang Bo’s face also darkened.

“Then go and get her back.” Kang Bo said.

“How can I chase her back? You guys already scared her away.” A Guang said angrily.

“Then, how about I go and beg her to come back?” Kang Bo was willing to humble himself for his son.

“Dad, you guys treated her like that, people would be scared of you when they see you.” A Guang continued to say.

“A Guang, I believe Xiang Lan knows the truth and won’t blame your brother, Xiang Lan, I know, is a good girl, very simple and kind, she wouldn’t hold a grudge, we just need to sincerely apologize.” Kang Er Zheng deliberately said good things about Xiang Lan.

“Yes.” Kang Bo quickly agreed.

“Go now, otherwise, she might leave tomorrow.” Kang Er Zheng reminded him.

“Okay.” A Guang nodded.

“Let’s go, Brother, Sister-in-law, we’ll all go together.” Kang Er Zheng was afraid that something might happen later, so he decided to follow them.

“Okay, let’s go.” Mom quickly pulled A Guang and Kang Bo along.

The scene changed.

They arrived at their factory dormitory.

They called Xiang Lan down.

Xiang Lan was just packing her things, planning to go back to her hometown tomorrow and leave this sad place.

“What do you want?” Xiang Lan’s eyes were still red, she must have been crying recently. “If it’s nothing, I’ll go back and pack my things.”

“What are you packing for?” A Guang asked quickly.

“I’m going home, leaving this place, I may be poor, but every penny I have is earned by myself, I only want my own money, I don’t want to find a meal ticket.” Xiang Lan choked back sobs as she spoke.

“Xiang Lan, it’s a misunderstanding.” A Guang anxiously explained.

Kang Er Zheng quickly nudged Kang Bo.

“Yes, Xiang Lan, it was my fault, I misunderstood you.” Kang Bo also quickly apologized.

“Xiang Lan, this matter was, the second sister-in-law misunderstood my brother’s meaning and made a mess of things.” Kang Er Zheng blamed the second sister-in-law for being a scapegoat.

Since Kang Bo was responsible, she was also responsible.

“Yes.” Kang Bo also nodded in agreement.

“We don’t have any objections to you, we support your marriage with A Guang.” Kang Er Zheng said.

“Xiang Lan, we won’t interfere with your and A Guang’s affair, we agree.” Mom nodded and said.

Xiang Lan was very simple, and now she believed their words.

“A Guang.” Kang Er Zheng pushed A Guang, then handed A Guang a ring.

A Guang was stunned when he got the ring, he didn’t react at all.

Kang Er Zheng kicked A Guang’s left leg.

“Kneel down and propose.” Kang Er Zheng was speechless about his stupid nephew.

“Xiang Lan, marry me.” A Guang finally reacted.

Seeing A Guang kneeling down and proposing.

Xiang Lan covered her mouth and cried with emotion.

Today was a day of great joy and great sorrow, with a lot of ups and downs.

“Put it on Xiang Lan.” Kang Er Zheng was dumbfounded, seeing A Guang not moving.

A Guang then pulled Xiang Lan’s hand and put the gold ring on her finger.

Seeing them put on the rings, Kang Er Zheng immediately clapped.

“Okay, okay, now you’re a family.” Mom said with a smile.

“Ahem, that, Sister-in-law, Brother, let’s go first, leave the rest to them.” Kang Er Zheng said.

Kang Bo nodded and left with Kang Er Zheng.

Only A Guang and Xiang Lan remained.

Both of them were blushing, not knowing what to do next.

“Remember to bring Xiang Lan home tonight, bring back her luggage too, you’re a family now.” Kang Er Zheng shouted, afraid that they would forget.

Hearing Kang Er Zheng’s words, they blushed even harder.

“That, Xiang Lan, I’ll go help you pack your things.” A Guang said with a red face.

Xiang Lan nodded in agreement, her head lowered.

In the evening, A Guang brought Xiang Lan home.
