But how could Er Gouzi dare? He hid behind Mu Tou, refusing to go over no matter what.

It wasn’t until Vajra bared his teeth at Er Gouzi that the latter walked over, wailing pitifully.

Seeing this, Vajra finally broke into a smile.

He reached out, lifted Er Gouzi up from the ground, and placed him in his arms. Then, he started petting Er Gouzi just like someone would pet a cat.

Mu Tou was stunned by the sight.

...

Meanwhile, Principal Wang parked his car at the entrance of Villa No. 5 and carefully observed the doorway for a good while.

Only after confirming that the big gorilla hadn’t followed him did he let out a long sigh of relief.

He pushed the car door open and quickly ran into the villa.

When he pushed open the study door, panting heavily, everyone inside turned to look at him with surprise.

He slammed the door shut, then leaned against it, patting his chest and letting out another long breath.

"Phew~ That was close, so close. Good thing I’m a fast runner!"

Fang Chenyi looked at the gasping Principal Wang, speechless, and said:

"I’m not trying to be mean, Old Wang, but what happened to you? Did a dog chase you here?"

Hearing this, Principal Wang shot back irritably:

"Boss! How can you even ask? Why in the world did you bring a gorilla here? And if you had to bring one, couldn’t you at least put it in a cage?! Oh my god, you have no idea. If I hadn’t run fast enough, you might not be seeing me right now!"

This tirade made everyone burst out laughing. They all understood that he must have been scared by Vajra.

But it was understandable. After all, given Vajra’s massive size, no one could see him for the first time without being afraid.

"Haha, look at the state of you. What are you so scared of? Vajra might look ferocious, but he’s actually very kind-hearted. Alright, stop looking at me like that. I’ll introduce you two later, and you’ll see."

After speaking, Fang Chenyi pointed to a small stool next to Wei Yilong and said to Principal Wang:

"Don’t waste any more time. Since you’re here, go sit over there and listen in."

Although he didn’t understand what Fang Chenyi was up to, Principal Wang quickly walked over and sat on the small stool. He couldn’t help but grumble:

"I mean, Boss, aren’t you a little too stingy? You’re so rich, even if you don’t get some sofas, you could at least get a couple of chairs..."

With his sharp hearing, Fang Chenyi heard Principal Wang’s words clearly, but he chose not to engage, getting straight to the point instead:

"Ahem. We don’t have much time, so let’s get down to business. Here’s the deal: I’m going to propose to Menghan, and I need everyone’s help!"

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned. Wei Yilong even exclaimed, "Holy shit!"

"Holy shit, Boss, don’t tell me you made me stop what I was doing just to help you with a marriage proposal! That’s a trillion-dollar project!! My dear Boss! I... Ugh, never mind. I know you’re rich, you can do whatever you want."

Hearing what Wei Yilong said, everyone deeply agreed. Most importantly, they all knew that Bai Menghan lived with the Boss all the time. Forget a proposal, they could go get their marriage certificate at any moment if they wanted to.

Of course, since the Boss now said he was going to propose, they naturally had to listen to the Boss.

But among them, there was one person who became exceptionally excited after hearing Fang Chenyi’s words.

That was, of course, Principal Wang.

The guy was a super rich second-generation heir, so naturally, he was extremely interested in something like a marriage proposal:

"Hahaha, Boss, you’ve finally seen the light! You should have proposed long ago! Just tell us the plan! We’ll make sure it’s handled perfectly! How about this? I’ll make a call right now and get you ninety-nine supercars! We’ll drive them straight to your sister-in-law’s school, and in front of everyone, we’ll buy nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine roses—"

At this point, Principal Wang paused for a moment, then shook his head and continued:

"No, no, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine is too few. With your net worth, Boss, we should at least get ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine! Then we’ll hang up a few banners! How about it, Boss! Isn’t that a great idea!"

"Great my ass! That’s so cliché, can’t you come up with something original?!"

’Considering my status, ninety-nine supercars? Isn’t that just tacky?!’

’If I’m going to do this, it has to be the most awesome proposal in the entire world!’

’Besides, I’ve still got so much good stuff in my woven bag!’

Seeing Principal Wang’s idea get rejected, Wei Yilong, who had been about to speak, knew to keep his mouth shut. His ideas were more or less the same as Principal Wang’s.

But Qi Xiaotian, who was at the side, spoke up:

"Brother Fang, I think it would be better to invite your parents and your sister-in-law’s parents for a meal. You can settle the marriage over dinner. That would be the simplest and most effective way."

This time, before Fang Chenyi could object, Wei Yilong and Principal Wang both rolled their eyes and shot him down. For a moment, everyone started debating amongst themselves.

Just as they were talking, Fang Chenyi’s phone suddenly rang. He ignored the group’s heated discussion as they tried to come up with good ideas, and instead took out his phone. He glanced at the screen; it was an unknown number.

After Fang Chenyi answered, a man’s respectful voice immediately came from the other end:

"Hello, may I ask if you are Chairman Fang Chenyi? I’m here to deliver the flower petals. We’ve already arrived in the Qinhuang Island City District. Where would you like us to take them?"

’Delivering flower petals to me?’ He didn’t even have to ask; it had to be the petals from the one hundred tons of roses.

’I didn’t expect them to be so fast. I was worried they wouldn’t make it in time, but here they are. Their timing is perfect.’

So he told the man to deliver them to the villa area in Century Garden.

He then hung up, clapped his hands to stop everyone’s discussion, and said:

"Alright, alright, everyone stop for a moment. Let me explain the current situation in more detail. It’s like this: tonight, there’s a graduation party at your sister-in-law’s school. It starts at eight o’clock. I plan to take advantage of this opportunity."

As soon as he said that, Principal Wang slapped his thigh and interrupted:

"Hey, that’s a great idea, a great idea!"

Before he could finish, Fang Chenyi gave him a light chop on the head.

"Can you let me finish talking, you punk?"

After getting tapped on the head, Principal Wang pretended to be in pain, wincing as he rubbed his head with a sheepish grin.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Fang Chenyi continued:

PS: Don’t worry, everyone. The fourth update will be posted in three minutes!
