His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 1227 - Never Saw It Coming

When Lu Zihao accepted Long Jinjing's marriage proposal, three bodies fell down on top of one another from behind a wall in the corner of the hallway.

"Ouch, sistahs! Did you two gain weight? You're going to crush my beautiful and handsome body!" The complaint barely left Dom's mouth when he was hit on the back of his head. "Ouch, Big Sis! That hurts!"

Linda Chua harrumphed. "How dare you say that I've gotten fat? Do you want to get beaten up? It has been a long time since I taught you a lesson myself!"

"When did I say that you're fat?!"

"Say that word again!" Linda raised her hand in a threatening manner, causing her younger brother to shrink in fear. "And Clover, get off me! You're heavy!"

Their youngest sibling giggled before struggling to stand up. "I ate a lot of delicious food in France. It's true that I gained weight but I'm not ashamed. I think that I look better with more meat in me."

Reina Chua glared at her children. "You three are too noisy! Don't disturb Jinjing and Zihao's moment!"

Domingo Chua didn't say anything, letting his wife do all the scolding, but he still gave his three children a firm look. The siblings, despite already being adults, immediately behaved in front of their parents. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy.

This short incident in the family didn't last long. All of them jumped out of their hiding spot and joined the household and security staff in celebrating Lu Zihao's acceptance of Long Jinjing's proposal.

"Kyaaaaaaaaah! Sis Jing is so cool! Ah, my maiden heart is skipping like a demented horse on sugar-high!"

Dom ran towards the newly engaged couple, not forgetting to continue recording a video of the special moment. As the assistant and later the best friend of Iris Long, a famous celebrity, he became quite adept in taking snapshots and recording videos of the best unexpected moments around him. Most of the content posted in Iris Long's social media accounts were taken by him.

This was why when his family came upon the couple talking in the hallway, he had a hunch that something might happen, so he immediately warned his family to stay quiet and hide together behind a wall. He also didn't forget to whip out his phone to start recording. Whether something happened or not, it wouldn't be a loss to him. At the very least, he would be able to satisfy his gossip-loving heart.

In the end, his intuition was once again proven to be correct. They watched in amazement as Long Jinjing dropped on one knee and proposed marriage to the shocked Lu Zihao.

The sisters and their parents followed after Dom.

"You're so brave, Sis Jing!" Clover exclaimed while jumping in excitement. "I want to be the one to propose to my boyfriend, too!" She was hit on the shoulder. "Ouch, Momsy!"

"What boyfriend are you talking about?" Reina asked with a fierce glare. "How come I don't know that you have a boyfriend? You've learned to keep such important things a secret to your own parents, ha."

Clover put on an aggrieved expression. "I don't have a boyfriend, Momsy! I'm just talking like this for when I have a boyfriend!"

Linda only glanced at her mother and sister before focusing on the newly engaged couple. "Congratulations, Jinjing and Zihao! I'm so happy for both of you."

The grinning Long Jinjing climbed down from her tight koala-hug of Lu Zihao. "Thank you, everyone."

"Hm." Lu Zihao could only respond like this. It seemed that he was still speechless by what happened.

Even when the congratulations rained down on them, his eyes were only on Long Jinjing. His girlfriend was now his fiancée.

The woman was glowing and looked the happiest that he had ever seen her as she thanked the Chua family and the staff congratulating them. He didn't realize that his expression had softened.

Ignoring the others, he grabbed and lifted her up before kissing her in front of everyone. The cheers became louder. He wanted to carry her back to their bedroom but managed to maintain a sliver of self-control. With great reluctance, he put her back down to stand on her own feet. His eyes flashed with satisfaction when she failed to stand properly because his kiss made her weak in the knees.

"You still want to go to work?" he asked.

Her dazed eyes cleared. "Oh, right! I'm going to be late! Oh no. Let's hurry up!"

She waved goodbye to everyone and ran with Lu Zihao. Her heels made it hard for her to run fast so he scooped her up and carried her like a princess before running. She yelped and hugged his neck tightly. The man ran so fast with almost zero effort as if her weight was nothing to him.

At last, they came out of the mansion. An empty car was already waiting for them. He stuffed her in the passenger seat before going to the other side and driving away.

The sudden proposal delayed them a lot. Long Jinjing was now surely going to be late but she didn't look worried at all. In fact, she was still grinning while staring at her fiancé's side profile while he was driving.

He glanced at her and felt helpless. "You…."

This kind of feeling was something that made him feel uncomfortable, but at the same time, there was something sweet and warm spreading inside his chest throughout the rest of his body.

He never could have imagined that his Miss Prim and Proper Long Jinjing would be so brazen as to drop on one knee in front of him and propose. It took him completely by surprise. He never saw it coming at all. Even now, he still couldn't believe that it really happened.

"Couldn't you wait a little longer? I'm the one who's supposed to propose to you!"

"You're going to p-propose to me? Really?" She looked extremely surprised. There was even a tinge of disbelief in her expression.

He sighed and realized how unreliable he must be in her eyes when it came to all this romantic shit.. It seemed that she wasn't expecting him to make a proper proposal to her at all, hence she took the matter in her own hands and proposed to him instead.
