Chapter 778: Gu Yuena! Come out!

"Waaaaah!"

The entire auditorium was quiet for only a brief moment, then it was as if it had exploded, becoming noisy and boiling over.

A proposal at the graduation party—who has ever seen a script like this?!

It wasn't just them; even Gu Yuena was stunned.

She had never once thought that Qin Jian would suddenly propose to her on such a special day.

Although their relationship was extremely ambiguous and they had spent five years like a couple, he had never even confessed his feelings!

"Are... are you really... are you really proposing?" She appeared at a loss.

Qin Jian smiled helplessly: "There are thousands of people watching below the stage; do I look like I'm joking?"

At this moment, the audience below also quieted down; everyone wanted to know what Gu Yuena's answer would be.

Gu Yuena was stunned for a good while, then did something that left everyone speechless.

She raised her small hand and bit down hard on it.

Qin Jian hurriedly reached out his free left hand to pull her away: "What are you doing?"

"I... I'm just checking to see if I'm dreaming..."

Her eyes slowly filled with tears: "So... so it's not..."

"Silly."

Qin Jian smiled dotingly: "Then... are you willing?"

The audience below fell instantly silent, pairs of eyes like rays of light, staring tightly at them.

If it really happens...

With the fame of this pair, they would truly be a legend among this year's graduates!

"I..."

Gu Yuena covered her small mouth, tears streaming down.

"Of course I'm willing!"

She lunged forward to hug Qin Jian, but forgot that he was crouching...

"Bang!"

Qin Jian was knocked backward onto the floor by her, his face full of helplessness and doting.

"Waaaaah!"

The audience went crazy again.

Qin Jian gently stroked the girl's soft, long hair and slowly stood up while holding her.

"Don't cry, you won't look pretty anymore." He chuckled softly.

Gu Yuena's sobbing stopped abruptly: "R-really?"

Qin Jian chuckled: "Fake."

"My Na'er is beautiful even when she cries."

He and Na'er had not taken off their microphones, so this conversation was transmitted clearly and in its entirety throughout the auditorium.

"Hehehe..."

Several thousand people wearing "auntie smiles"—the scale was a bit exaggerated.

Gu Yuena blushed.

Qin Jian, however, did not feel the slightest bit awkward; he gently raised his hand, wiped away her tears, then took out the engagement ring, took her smooth little hand, and slowly placed it on her left middle finger.

An engagement ring, which is also a token of love.

"Wow!"

The audience cheered in cooperation, and then jeers erupted: "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"

Qin Jian smiled and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to kiss?"

Gu Yuena's gaze lingered on the engagement ring, and at this moment, a strange impulse surged in her heart.

She suddenly reached out to hook her arms around Qin Jian's neck, stood on her tiptoes slightly, and kissed him all at once.

Soft lips, carrying wisps of saltiness, pressed against him.

Qin Jian pulled her slender waist tighter and kissed her back deeply.

"Wow! ——"

The "auntie smiles" appeared once again.

But just as Qin Jian and Gu Yuena were immersed in this kiss, no one noticed that the entire auditorium had suddenly become dark.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Suddenly!

Several pitch-black beams of light pierced straight toward Gu Yuena's back!

In the blink of an eye, Qin Jian violently hugged Gu Yuena and spun one hundred and eighty degrees.

"Ah!"

Gu Yuena exclaimed and opened her eyes, only to find that the surroundings had become pitch black, and she couldn't even see the audience below the stage.

"It's not dark yet, why would it come?!" She said with some terror.

Clearly, she had encountered such dangerous attacks more than once or twice.

"Move away quickly!"

Only then did she see those several sword-like beams of light piercing straight into Qin Jian's back.

But it was already too late to push Qin Jian away...

"Sss, sss, sss!"

But just as that black beam was about to pierce through Qin Jian, it suddenly stopped, turning into several black ribbons that bound him.

"As expected..."

Qin Jian narrowed his eyes: "It doesn't want to hurt me, only Na'er!"

The next moment, a manic force pulled hard, and he was dragged away from Gu Yuena's side.

"Principal! Teacher! Where are you all!"

Gu Yuena discovered that she couldn't hold onto Qin Jian at all, and couldn't help but cry out with a sob in her voice.

Many times in the past, it was they who came to the rescue, which was why she had called out subconsciously.

"Swish!"

As if hearing her call, a ray of light flashed, and Poseixi appeared before her.

"Splash!"

Water-blue radiance spread out, surging toward the darkness like a deluge.

"Screech! ——"

With a sharp sound that didn't sound human, the darkness surged violently, actually blasting her back.

"Impossible! It wasn't this strong before!" Poseixi was moved.

Seeing Qin Jian's figure gradually being dragged into the darkness, she became extremely anxious and rushed forward, a blue ribbon catching Qin Jian's waist.

Unfortunately, the disparity in strength was too great; she only delayed the speed of Qin Jian's disappearance by a little.

"Rip!"

At this moment, a holy light appeared, bolstering Poseixi's power.

Qian Renxue appeared by her side: "This power is at least ten times what it was in the past. What happened?!"

She turned her head and asked urgently: "Gu Yuena, did some unexpected situation occur?"

"N-no, nothing!"

Gu Yuena stammered: "Just, just his proposal just now, does that count as an accident?"

"A proposal?!"

Gazes shot over in a flurry, not just from Qian Renxue and Poseixi, but also from Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu who had just arrived.

"Wait, a... proposal..."

Qian Renxue suddenly stopped; a thought flashed through her mind, but it was hard to grasp.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

The darkness was hard to approach, so Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu could only do as the others did, sending their power out to try their best to delay the speed of Qin Jian's disappearance.

This way, Qin Jian could finally heave a sigh of relief.

But the first sentence he spoke shocked Poseixi and the others.

"Gu Yue! It's you, isn't it?!"

The darkness stopped abruptly.

"That's it!"

Qian Renxue reacted instantly: "I felt something was wrong just now. It turns out it's because every time the darkness attacks, it's a moment when the relationship between Gu Yuena and Qin Jian progresses, and this time the power is so strong precisely because Qin Jian proposed..."

"So, this darkness is Gu Yue?"

Ning Rongrong's expression changed: "Then why would she attack Brother Jian?"

"Attack? Where is there an attack?"

Qian Renxue suddenly saw the light: "I always found it strange before why, no matter whether we could arrive in time or not, Qin Jian would never be injured."

"It turns out it's because she is simply unwilling to hurt Qin Jian!"

She stated decisively: "All Gu Yue wants to do is drag him into the darkness with her!"

"Gu Yue! ——"

Qin Jian sensed the darkness pulling again and couldn't help but roar: "Come out! I came here just for you! Why don't you dare to come out!"

The darkness stagnated.

"You..."

A voice that could not be distinguished as yin or yang rang out from all directions: "You came to find Gu Yuena... not for me..."

Once these words were spoken, it was no different from admitting that she was Gu Yue.

Qin Jian let out a long sigh of relief.

"Gu Yue..."

He said in a deep voice: "You should know, I came looking for both of you, not just Na'er."
