Chapter 110
We need to hurry.
If we don't leave now, something bad might happen.
In the dark, he took Losweiser's hand—he had originally intended to hold her wrist, but the light was too dim to see clearly.
Losweiser panicked for a moment, her fingers unconsciously bending slightly, but after regaining her composure, she still managed to hold Leon's hand tightly in the darkness.
She shared the same idea as Leon:
Given their luck along the Leon, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance of them being chosen, they would still run.
The couple's dog crept furtively into the side passageway, ready to slip away at any moment.
Unfortunately...
It was too late.
The spotlight wandered back and forth in the couples' seating area, like God of Death choosing the right prey.
Final--
To everyone's surprise, the spotlight didn't focus on the couples' area, but instead shone on the passageway to the side.
At this moment, under the spotlight, a man and a woman are holding hands, looking as if they are about to slip away.
The entire audience erupted in uproar.
After a brief moment of surprise, the host quickly explained, "Oh, it's probably a problem with our spotlight, which is why it shone on the aisle. But it's okay, we've still selected a couple!"
Leon and Losweiser stood under the spotlight, stared at by everyone in the room, feeling as if countless flames were scorching them, and every pore on their bodies was steaming hot.
Seriously, Queen? You're in the aisle and you can still see us?
Is this a ruthless extermination tactic?!
"No, no, no, we're not a couple. We just ran out of tickets, so we bought couple seats." Leon explained awkwardly, trying not to reenact the proposal scene at the end.
"Don't be shy, you two. You're wearing matching outfits, how could you not be a couple?"
Couple outfits...
Were these all foreshadowing by a great director?
Every step is meticulously planned, leaving no unnecessary setup or detail! Three
My dear daughter, you did a great job!
Losweiser silently covered her face with her other hand. (Lin)
As expected, what cannot be escaped will never be escaped. (Nine)
This is probably fate. (Mio)
"Come on, everyone, come up on stage and start your performance. We're just here to have fun, so let's just have some fun!" (Chess)
"Yeah, yeah, you two are a perfect match! Everyone's definitely swooning over your looks when you act together!" (Wine)
"Go go go!" (5)
Then came a chorus of jeers and whistles.
The couple looked at each other, and then resigned themselves to their fate.
After all, the daughters were secretly observing from somewhere, so how could they not behave well?
So, amidst the gazes and applause of the dragons, they stepped onto the stage.
The male protagonist just now handed the ring to Leon.
It's a prop ring, but it feels real to the touch, and its surface is sparkling and very beautiful. From a distance, it looks even more real than Ding Zhen.
Leon scoffed, thinking to himself, "If this ring were big enough, I'd love to put it around the necks of all you bastards."
"Alright, our brave male protagonist, now, please kneel down on one knee and offer your most loyal—love—to your female protagonist!"
Chapter 99 features a marriage proposal; isn't that impressive?
Also, thank you all for your donations and monthly tickets! I updated 200,000 words last month, and I was practically fainting from writing. I hope you'll continue to support me; the more monthly tickets, the more updates I'll do!
The audience members who were originally planning to leave returned to their seats to wait when they saw that there was a post-credits scene.
Even the actors who had already finished their performances didn't leave the stage; instead, they stayed on stage, intending to appreciate the acting skills of the folk artists up close.
Among the group of actors, two small stone props that were supposed to remain still were somehow moved to the side of the stage without anyone noticing.
Snap—Snap—Snap—
The host slowly began to applaud, and seeing Leon's expression, couldn't help but praise him.
"Although this gentleman is not a professional actor, if you look closely, you can see that he has perfectly portrayed the shyness and embarrassment on his face. At the same time, his longing and anticipation for the marriage proposal is also very vivid."
Amidst the host's awkward praise, Leon faced Losweiser and slowly knelt on one knee.
He tried his best to shut out all the flattery.
But the host was unstoppable with his combo attack.
"Look, look at that kneeling gesture, the way he looks at his partner, the reverence with which he presents the ring!"
"This gentleman truly possesses both acting skills and emotional depth!"
"If he and the woman in front of him weren't truly in love, how could they have produced such an effect?"
Let's give them a round of applause!
Swish swish swish—
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience once again.
Even the professional actors on stage were persuaded by the host to applaud.
For some reason, this scene felt strangely familiar.
Where did you experience this...?
Where is it...?
Leon remembered.
It wasn't the scene itself that was familiar, but rather the host's overly enthusiastic "shipping" expression that felt very familiar.
He's exactly like that old bastard Vice Principal Wilson!
So, are you an undercover agent sent by Wilson?
my country has a complete set of punishments for undercover agents: hanging.
However, hanging is too cruel. I, the Dragon Slayer, am of great benevolence and righteousness. I can send you to the Western Paradise in one move, without pain or feeling, in the blink of an eye.
With the host's encouragement, the audience and the actors on stage all focused their attention on Leon and Losweiser.
They completely ignored the two stone pillars on the stage, which were played by people.
One of the stone pillars moved closer to the other, lowering its voice, "Sister, Daddy is about to propose to Mom, why aren't you smiling?"
"Mu En, don't you think... this scene looks familiar?"
Mu En blinked blankly and shook her head. "Mu En forgot."
Noa sighed, "That's right. You were just watching the show from the audience. It was me, Mom, and Daddy who were put on stage to be killed."
Noa feels so embarrassed whenever she recalls the day she gave her speech as a model family at the opening ceremony.
Why does she have to go through all of this again just to find material for her essay?
Damn it, it's all because of this disguise of choosing stone blocks.
I originally thought that observing Mom Daddy's reactions from a positive perspective would be more effective.
But to my surprise... the effect was too good.
However, since things have come to this, there's no point in saying more.
From another perspective, the fact that the male and female protagonists unexpectedly proposed to each other right in front of them is actually a wonderful surprise.
Noa huddled under the prop costume on the stone block, observing quietly.
After kneeling down on one knee, I saw my Daddy holding the prop ring and looking up at my Mom.
Like Daddy, Mom blushed and seemed a little lost.
Noa rarely saw this side of her Mom.
In life, Mom is a parent who is both gentle and strict;
At work, Mom is a responsible and dedicated Queen.
Even at the previous school entrance ceremony, the Mom simply appeared embarrassed.
She wasn't like this before... blushing with shyness.
Well, that's fine too.
Anyway, Mu En and I didn't see Daddy propose back then, so let's just consider this a make-up of the past.
Leon pursed his lips and began to read the dry, monotonous lines.
"Dear Judy— "
Judy is the name of the female lead in the show.
Leon could only secretly rejoice that the female lead wasn't named Losweiser.
"You are willing... to marry... to..."
At that moment, the level of shame in the hearts of Lai Yi, Lin San, Lin Qi IV, and Losweiser was off the charts.
Even the glow of the setting sun could barely conceal the blush on their faces.
His heart was pounding, his brain was congested with blood, and Leon felt dizzy.
He held Losweiser's slightly cool hand; her palm was soft, her fingers long and slender, and her wrist thin and boneless.
What beautiful hands.
His brain, on the verge of crashing with embarrassment, made Leon completely oblivious to everything around him.
At this moment, it seemed that only his "Judy" remained in his eyes.
My gaze followed the back of her hand up her arm and finally settled on her face.
Even at a 45-degree angle, her face still looked perfect.
Coupled with that shy and charming expression, her stunning beauty was more than enough to reassure Leon.
With his daughters secretly observing from somewhere, Leon was going all out!
"My dear Judy, will you marry me?"
Losweiser was being dragged along by Leon with one hand, while her other hand gripped the hem of their matching couple's shirts tightly.
Every pore on her body seemed to be radiating heat. If there hadn't been so many people around, she probably would have curled up her tail in embarrassment.
She bit her lower lip, and could clearly feel her face turning red and hot.
I want to escape, I really want to escape.
But...
This guy even dares to read his lines out loud.
Am I really not as good as my own prisoners of war?
We absolutely cannot let him look down on us!
It's just accepting a marriage proposal, what's so difficult about that!
"Nick— "
Nick is the name of the male protagonist.
