Reborn As Super Heiress

Capítulo 1506: Chapter 1490: Now This Is Awkward

Huo Sining’s expression suddenly turned a little awkward and subtle. She has always ignored these rumors, but now that the host is asking Caesar in front of everyone, she felt uncomfortable no matter how thick-skinned she was.

Caesar, on the other hand, appeared completely at ease. He didn’t shy away from the host’s teasing. Instead, he looked straight at where Huo Sining was sitting:

“The rumors are somewhat biased, but not entirely fabricated. In fact, I have a strong liking for Miss Huo. I really hope to pursue her passionately. I believe she embodies all my fantasies about a future wife: intelligent, confident, a perfect blend of talent, wisdom, and beauty. But I don’t know if Miss Huo would be willing to give me such a chance…”

Windsor Caesar, his eyes blazing, confessed to Huo Sining in front of everyone at the entire award ceremony venue.

“Oh my god, did I just imagine it? Was that really Emperor Caesar speaking just now?”

“Insane! The Emperor is confessing, and to that Oriental woman!”

“Big news, damn it, this is absolutely unprecedented in all the previous award ceremonies!”

“Those rumors weren’t fake after all, Caesar is genuinely interested in this Huaxia woman! Oh my god!”

“This award ceremony is an eye-catcher. Even the icy Caesar is preparing to couple up. What about us singles, should we even continue living?”

“Are you kidding me, an English royal aristocrat is smitten with an Asian ‘yellow monkey’? What exactly is it about this woman named Huo that’s better than all the Emperor’s ex-girlfriends?”

Not only was the award ceremony venue in an uproar, but the internet was also going wild. No one had expected Caesar to publicly declare his love for Miss Huo in such a setting, it was certainly gearing up to be a major news story.

The reporters were thrilled, each eagerly raised their cameras, ready to photograph Windsor Caesar and Huo Sining, constantly brainstorming on how to craft an eye-catching headline.

A certain Mr. Gu, who had been waiting backstage to surprise Huo Sining with the final championship award, was stunned. Instantly, his face darkened. He never expected, after planning his proposal ceremony for so long, that someone would suddenly appear to intercept his bride.

Huo Sining was dumbfounded. She never anticipated Windsor Caesar would pull such a stunt, leaving her at a loss and not knowing what to do next.

Ouyang Jun and a few others, who were also waiting for the final dramatic performance from the audience, were also caught off guard. The few who knew the inside story exchanged puzzled glances, even Zhang Shuang was taken aback, her mouth agape in shock.

“What the hell’s going on here? Xu Zi has been planning for so long; what now?” Ouyang Jun was anxious, feeling as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

“What’s the big deal? Isn’t this great? We’ve always seen the drama of two women fighting over one man. This time it’s reversed; isn’t it refreshing?” Song Hui couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

“Haha, exactly. Xu Zi always said the higher the profile, the better. Now Windsor Caesar has made the first move; when two kings compete, one will inevitably get hurt. I’m looking forward to a good show next.” Qin Tian, who was all about enjoying the chaos, wasn’t worried for Gu Xu; instead, he looked mischievous and gloating.

“What kind of friends are you guys? I haven’t seen anyone more treacherous than you all!”

Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan couldn’t help but laugh in frustration at Qin Tian and Song Hui’s words.

In the Imperial Capital Diecui Garden, a few old men watching this scene were equally baffled, but soon they recovered and burst into hearty laughter.

“Haha, this is great. I’ve heard that Gu Family kid went all the way to Las Vegas to propose to Huo girl. Now that there’s an unexpected turn of events, let’s see how that Gu Family kid handles it.”

“Hasn’t the old man from the Gu Family always boasted about his grandson finding a good wife? Now that someone is openly trying to steal her, that Gu Family boy must be hopping mad.”

“The elegant lady and the gentleman seek after her. Even a foreign devil can’t resist my disciple’s charm. This Windsor Caesar has good taste, picking the best one at a glance!”

“Precisely, they’re not married yet, the man is single, and the woman is unmarried. What’s the issue here? It’s not the feudal era anymore; love is free. If they’re truly in love, who can stand in their way?”

“You’re just talking nonsense. Ask Chief Lu if he’d be willing for his god-granddaughter to marry a foreign devil. I say the Gu Family boy is better: red roots and strong background, way better than that Windsor Caesar. What’s good about that foreign devil besides being good at gambling? Besides, is gambling really a good profession? Dealing with both the underworld and the legal world, such a person can’t be easy to deal with.”

A bunch of unruly old guys were heatedly debating in front of the TV. Meanwhile, across the Pacific Ocean in Las Vegas, Gu Xu at the awards ceremony backstage was already at his boiling point, almost ready to charge on stage. Seeing the host already inviting the other main person involved, Huo Sining, on stage and even handing her the microphone, asking for her thoughts and what kind of response she was going to give Windsor Caesar.

Seeing this, Gu Xu’s eyes reddened with urgency. He couldn’t care less anymore. He immediately picked up the phone and dialed Yu Fei:

“Damn it, Fei, things have changed. My plan’s been hijacked! Quickly figure out a way to hack into this damn award ceremony’s power system, take down the stage lights and sound, and just link me straight into the live broadcast!”

Yu Fei, who had been in full preparedness doing final checks, hadn’t even had the chance to watch the live broadcast of the WGC award ceremony. Receiving Gu Xu’s command now, he was completely puzzled:

“Link into the live broadcast? Boss, what do you intend to do?”

Over there, seeing Huo Sining taking the microphone only made Gu Xu more anxious. Irritated, he cursed: “It’s not your business what I want to do. Just do as I say, I’ll handle the rest!”

“Oh, okay.” Yu Fei hurriedly hung up and started busying himself.

Meanwhile, Huo Sining also wore a face of turmoil as she took the microphone.

As she stepped on stage, her eyes met with Windsor Caesar’s, feeling his burning gaze, she couldn’t help but smile bitterly inside.

In fact, she had already told the host while she was offstage that she had an important announcement to make today. But now that Windsor Caesar confessed to her in front of so many people, Huo Sining felt awkward, wondering whether she should still announce the matter after all.
