Seeing Chu Mengyao's mysterious smile, Ling Ling blinked, but it didn't matter. It was still early anyway, so he could only wait and see what Chu Mengyao was up to.
"Senior, come on, I'll introduce you to the work in the store and the people here."
"Oh~ By the way, Ling Ling, aren't you going to change into a maid outfit?"
"I just brought my senior here today. I haven't done any preparation yet. Besides, it's almost closing time, so it's better not to change it." Ling Ling explained.
He took Chu Mengyao on a tour of the coffee shop, introduced everyone in the store, and demonstrated what needed to be done on a daily basis.
Looking at Ling Ling's extremely skillful movements, Chu Mengyao blinked her eyes. She always felt that Ling Ling seemed very powerful. Although she was not wearing a maid outfit, she looked much more professional than her who was wearing one.
Time passed quickly, and after seeing off the last customer, Ling Ling began to help Chu Mengyao tidy up the store. Maybe because there were two more people, the tidying up was done quickly.
After cleaning, Ling Ling poured everyone a cup of coffee and then sat at the bar, waiting for Chu Mengyao's performance. Seeing how mysterious she looked just now, she shouldn't let him down.
At this moment, Luo Xiaoning walked out of the room, looked at the people still sitting in the store, and asked in confusion: "Hey, haven't you finished tidying up yet?"
"No, I asked them to stay for a while, just as a witness." Chu Mengyao walked up to Luo Xiaoning and said with a smile.
“Eh!?”
Seeing Chu Mengyao appear, Ling Ling and the others' eyes suddenly became sharp. This strange atmosphere, combined with what Chu Mengyao just said, why does it feel a bit like a proposal?
As it turned out, Ling Ling's guess was correct.
Amid everyone's surprised gazes, Chu Mengyao took out a small box from her pocket. When she opened it, she found a diamond ring inside. Under the light, it emitted an alluring glow.
"Marry me, idiot!"
As soon as Chu Mengyao's words came out, Jiang Xue subconsciously exclaimed, she didn't expect that the boss kept them here today just to witness her and Luo Xiaoning's proposal!
Zhao Rui tugged at Ling Ling's clothes and whispered, "Should we shout something like 'marry her' now?"
"Even if you ask me, I don't know!?"
While the two were talking, Luo Xiaoning, who had been standing there in a daze, suddenly turned red in the face. She covered her mouth and stammered a few times. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
After a long while, Luo Xiaoning finally calmed down. She looked at Chu Mengyao standing in front of her and said calmly, "I refuse!"
"Eh!?"
Before everyone recovered from their surprise, Luo Xiaoning continued, "No matter what, it should be you who marries me!"
Looking at Chu Mengyao's expression, Ling Ling always felt like she was about to hit someone.
She took a deep breath, then closed the box in her hand without hesitation and said calmly, "Since you refuse, forget it."
"Eh!? I didn't say no."
Seeing Chu Mengyao's actions, Luo Xiaoning suddenly became nervous. She moved closer to Chu Mengyao with a nervous look on her face, trying to snatch the box from Chu Mengyao's hand.
Watching Luo Xiaoning, who had a height difference with her, jumping around in front of Chu Mengyao, Ling Ling felt as if Chu Mengyao was teasing a child. What was going on with this strange sense of déjà vu
Chu Mengyao looked at Luo Xiaoning in front of her, and while her attention was on her hands, she hugged her and lowered her head to kiss Luo Xiaoning on her lips.
"This dog food is really delicious."
Ling Ling shook her head gently, then stretched out her hand and waved at everyone, indicating that they could retreat now and that the rest of the time should be left to the two of them.
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Mengyao finally let go of Luo Xiaoning who was almost suffocated. Looking at her seemingly indifferent expression, she smiled faintly. However, at this moment, she realized that there was no one left in the store.
"It seems like they understand what they are doing~" Chu Mengyao chuckled and said to herself.
On the other side, everyone who walked out of the coffee shop was still immersed in what had just happened. Jiang Xue subconsciously set her gaze on her master, as if she was thinking about something.
As for Li Si, he looked dazed and hasn't reacted yet.
If we talk about normal situations, there are only Ling Ling and Zhao Rui. The former is because she had guessed it long ago, and the latter has seen this kind of scene more than once. To be honest, she has even seen a brother propose to another brother.
"Ahem, that's all for today, let's all go back. By the way, I wish you all a happy Valentine's Day, or a happy barbecue festival~" After Ling Ling left these words, he walked straight towards his home.
But after taking two steps, she seemed to have thought of something, and then turned around and said to Zhao Rui: "Senior sister, Sister Mengyao told me that if you really want to go to work, you are always welcome."
"Yes, thank you."

Chapter 677 Just treat me as your girlfriend tonight
"I'm back."
Ling Ling opened the door and returned home, then saw her daughter standing at the door, looking at her angrily, as if asking her why she was not punctual.
Ling Ling reached out her hand and gently stroked her daughter's head a few times, saying, "I'm sorry, Xiuxiu. I just went to the coffee shop, and something very interesting happened. I'll tell you in detail later. Now I'm going to change my clothes."
"Oh~"
After a while, Ling Ling, wearing a new set of clothes, reappeared in the living room, then took her daughter's hand and walked out of the house. It always felt a little strange to go out with her daughter on Valentine's Day.
But soon, Ling Ling shook her head gently, always feeling that going shopping with her daughter was the best choice for her now.
Just after walking out of the community, before Ling Ling took two steps, she felt the corner of her clothes being pulled a few times. She turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Mom, didn't you just say you wanted to tell me something interesting?"
"Oh~ Well, I had something to do today so I went to the coffee shop, and then your sister Chu Mengyao proposed to Miss Luo Xiaoning."
“Eh!?”
Ling Yu imagined the scene at that time, and then asked curiously: "Did Miss Luo Xiaoning agree?"
"Of course, if I don't agree, I will probably be pressed on the bed by your sister Chu Mengyao and forced to agree... ahem!" Ling Ling seemed to realize that what he said was not appropriate to say to his daughter. He coughed twice and continued, "I don't know when they will get married. Maybe I can be a best man or bridesmaid by then."
"Is that so?" Ling Yu blinked, not knowing what would happen if he proposed to his mother.
But then again, I don’t seem to be an adult yet, why can’t time pass faster
Thinking of this, Ling Yu sighed somewhat melancholy. He didn't have much time left. Compared with those young ladies who surrounded his mother, his only advantage was that he could often stay with his mother, and that was all.
Just when Ling Yu was daydreaming, Ling Ling suddenly asked, "Yu Yu, where do you want to go for dinner? Mommy can take you to a feast now."
"I don't need to have a big meal. I just need to go to the place where Mommy often takes me. Mommy hasn't taken me there for a long time."
Ling Ling naturally knew what place her daughter was talking about. She chuckled and said in a joking tone, "Well, go wherever Yuyu says to go. Just treat me as your girlfriend tonight."
"Eh!? Really?"
"Of course I'm just joking. How could Mommy be your girlfriend~" Ling Ling stretched out his hand and tapped his daughter on the forehead.
