Chapter 100: Marriage Proposal

After Downing broke off Marilyn's engagement in public, his colleagues and friends expressed regret and incomprehension to him.

"Tony, I really don't know what you think, why did you give up this good opportunity to enter the big club?"

"You guy really don't know how blessed you are, look at that Pete, how much effort he has put into pursuing Jenny, but now I don't know if he can succeed? Hello, you're already engaged to Marilyn, don't you cherish it, aren't you, aren't you cheap the mayor's youngest son! ”

"Tony, you listen to my advice, while it's still too late, hurry up and go to Marilyn to apologize, beg her, and have a chance to get back together, it's really too late to delay it for another two days!"

“......”

In the face of these colleagues and friends who were either well-intentioned or took the opportunity to sneer, Tang Ning waved his hand lightly and ignored it, but bought a bouquet of red roses, brought a delicate box, and came to the next door to Marilyn's ------------------, that is, Uncle Tom's house.

Uncle Tom was very surprised by his arrival, first looked him up and down, and then asked puzzledly, "Tony, are you in the wrong place?" You're holding roses and gifts, so you should have gone to Mr. Philip's house next door to find Marilyn, right? ”

Downing shook his head and replied, "No, I'm not in the wrong place, and I'm not here to find Marilyn today, I'm here to find your daughter, the angel in my mind, the beautiful Miss Jessica!" ”

At this time, Jessica walked out of it and asked with a surprised face, "Tony, what did you say?" You're here for me? ”

Tang Ning nodded and replied, "That's right, I'm here to find you!" Jessica, ever since I met you at Mark's Restaurant that day, I knew I was wrong, I couldn't have been more wrong! I really don't know what I thought at the beginning. Even I wondered if I had been bewitched by the devil at the time! Otherwise, how could I give up on such a beautiful and kind girl as you?

And now, I have finally come to my senses, so I have come to you again and repent of my past mistakes! Give me another chance, okay? Dear Jessica, the goddess of my heart! With that, Downing knelt down on one knee, and took out a delicate little box from his bosom, and opened it, and Uncle Tom and Jessica, who were present at this time, were surprised again, because what was placed in it was actually a delicate and beautiful ring!

In fact, Downing's words were really in his heart, after he saw Jessica in Mark's restaurant, he decided that if he really wanted to find a woman in this world, he would definitely find a beautiful woman like Jessica with enlarged breasts and long legs and in line with his own aesthetics, not to mention that the two had a relationship before, and even this was one of the reasons why he broke up with Marilyn yesterday, so he came here early today to propose.

Looking at the bright roses and the ring sparkling with diamonds in front of her, and Downing kneeling on one knee in front of her and looking very sincere, Jessica almost felt as if she was dreaming, in fact, her relationship with Tony Downing was long before Marilyn, if it wasn't for the Philip's gospel - Uncle Hule's letter, then he must have been engaged to him. Although Jessica was very sad that Downing chose Marilyn, she could also understand how tempting a wealthy relative was for a small civil servant like Tony Downing, who had no money and no power, especially after Mr. Le returned, the earth-shaking changes that happened in the family next door proved the correctness of Downing's choice in the first place.

But at this time, Tang Ning chose to terminate his marriage contract with Marilyn, gave up this low-hanging wealth and power, and walked in front of him again? Why would he do it? Is it really because of love? So Jessica asked Downing, "Tony, what you just said really touched me very much, but I still want to ask you, have you really thought it through?" I don't have Uncle Hule in my family, not only can I not come up with a rich dowry, but on the contrary, I need you to bear a lot of responsibilities for our family, have you really thought clearly? ”

Tang Ning nodded without hesitation and replied, "I have thought clearly, I have already thought clearly!" Since I still dare to come to you, I am ready for everything! With that, Downing opened the big box he was carrying with him and said to Uncle Tom: "Uncle Tom, these are my bride price, please accept it, and please believe that I will be able to make Jessica live a good life!" ”

I saw that the box was actually full of francs, and the rough estimate was as many as tens of thousands of francs, and Uncle Tom, who was taken aback by this amount, asked tremblingly: "Tony, how much is this?" ”

"Ten thousand francs!" Tang Ning replied lightly.

"Oh my God! So much? Tony, where did you get that? It couldn't have been stolen from Mr. Huller, could it? Jessica couldn't help but exclaim.

"How could it be stolen? Do you think I look like that? And the so-called Monsieur Hule, he doesn't have a hundred thousand francs in his hands. In short, you can rest assured, the source of this money is absolutely clean, but the source needs to be kept secret for the time being. "In fact, this money was exchanged by Tang Ning with the Japanese currency stored in the system, anyway, the reward for this main quest is 10,000 francs, if it is successful, it is equivalent to spending it in advance, if it is not successful, then the role of these Japanese coins is to make your life in this world better.

Originally, Downing thought that Uncle Tom would be happy to put it away immediately when he saw this ten thousand francs, but he didn't expect him to push the ten thousand francs back, and said solemnly to Downing: "Tony, I know that you are very serious and respectful to Jessica, but I can't take this money, because the final decision on this matter is still in Jessica's hands." If she doesn't promise you, no amount of money you have; And if she agrees to you, then this money will be kept for you to use in the future, how can I use so much money as an old man? ”

Then he turned his head and urged his daughter: "Okay, Jessica, do you agree to Tony, but give an answer, look at how long Tony has been kneeling here?" ”

At this time, Jessica realized that she had been thinking about it for too long because of this ten thousand francs, so she hurriedly picked up the ring in Tangning's hand, nodded happily and agreed: "I promise you!" ”
