The engagement ceremony was lively, the invited guests were very enthusiastic when welcoming the moment of the exchange of rings between Bo Li and Ivander Liam, the excitement enveloped the atmosphere of the beautiful morning.
Bo Li pinned the ring to Ivander's ring finger, and the two are now officially engaged. Invitational guests were getting excited about giving their support to both partners by clapping. It's time for a dance, now, Ivander held Bo Li's hand to the middle of the hall room and the sound of music accompanied them both and was followed by all the invited guests who participated in dancing with both partners.
The two of them only looked at each other without a word being said between them, no smiles or reprimands, they just danced together according to the format of the event. Ivander's gaze looked very sharp piercing as he looked towards Bo Li who only looked at him expressionlessly.
"Can't you smile at me a little bit, please give me some pleasure on this engagement day, miss!" Ivander said.
"What?" said Bo Li.
"I know you were forced to accept this matchmaking to make your grandfather happy, didn't you, Miss Bo Li?" Ivander said as she twisted Bo Li's body dancing.
"Is that how I look so bad that you get distracted when you look at me, why should I smile?" said Bo Li. starting to get annoyed.
"Well, at least you showed some joy on this happy engagement day, Bo Li!" said Ivander Liam.
"Did I agree to accept this engagement, Mr Ivander Liam?" said Bo Li.
"Why do you accept it if you don't like it, what is your purpose?" said Ivander Liam.
"It's not that I don't have to ask you any more about this engagement?", Bo Li asked indifferently.
"Well, I know how you're feeling right now" Ivander said, tightening his arms.
"Can we not get too close?" said Bo Li coldly.
"It's just a lady's dance, there's no need for that piece of gold on me, I don't intend anything on you!" said the blond man.
"Thank God if you understand!" said Bo Li.
"Mm, why are you that cold to me, aren't you my fiancee?" said Ivander Liam.
"Don't ask me, why am I acting so cold to you?" said Bo Li.
The dance almost ended when Bo Li stopped her dance from leaving the dance floor, the last song was still heard accompanying Bo Li's footsteps who went away from the hall, seen late guests dancing, they didn't realize Bo Li had gone back to the dressing room.
Only Ivander Liam and Grandpa Li are still welcoming guests at Bo Li's engagement.

Grandfather Li came to Bo Li's dressing room and approached his favorite grandson who was sitting in front of the mirror with tears soaking his face. Grandfather Li sighed as Bo Li cried sobbing without caring for grandfather's presence in the hotel's dressing room.
"Bo Li, stop crying!", said the grandfather then sitting in front of Bo Li.
"Hiks?", isak Bo Li.
"Grandfather knows this isn't easy for you, but we have to do it Bo Li because this is the best way for all of us" said grandfather.
"Hiks!", Bo Li still sobbed in tears.
"Today is your birthday, grandfather deliberately held your engagement party right on your birthday, grandfather should not do it to you, forgive grandfather, Bo Li!" said the regretful grandfather.
Bo Li wiped his sagging tears wetting his face and raised his face straight towards grandfather.
"It's okay, grandfather, if this is the way we should do it for the good of all of us, I will accept it!" Bo Li said.
"Eh, really?" said the surprised grandfather.
"After everything is fine and things go back to normal, I will finish this engagement and talk to her again in a nice way, grandfather!" Bo Li said.
"Do we need to explain all the truth to him, I don't think it's necessary grandfather, because after this engagement I will part nicely with him!" Bo Li said.
"How are you going to do it, this engagement I've arranged since you were kids and Ivander Liam's grandfather has agreed to it" said the grandfather.
"I know it's grandfather, but as long as we don't love each other, it'll make it easier for the two of us to part" Bo Li said.
"What if everything isn't right from your calculations, how are you going to end it?" said the anxious grandfather.
"Relax grandfather, we can definitely get through this and be patient!" said Bo Li.
"Oh, yes grandfather almost forgot about it, I want to give you a gift on your engagement day!" said grandfather.
Bo Li saw grandfather take out a gift from his suit pocket and gave it to Bo Li.
"Take ! Grandpa did want to give this right on your engagement day because it's a message from your mother to give it if you're engaged on your birthday !", said grandfather while offering a neatly wrapped gift to Bo Li.
"What is this, grandfather?", asked Bo Li.
"Open when you get home, Bo Li!" said grandfather.
"Thank you, grandfather for the card" Bo Li said, wiping her tears.
"Today because you have become Ivander Liam's fiancee then you have to move into his house after this engagement event!" said the grandfather.
"What, do I have to stay at home with him, grandfather?" Bo Li said in surprise.
"The man's side has asked grandfather, and I have supported him, Bo Li, how could I possibly deny my words to him?" said the grandfather.
"Hm?", murmured Bo Li wirih.
"Patience, until the time comes we can leave this place!" said grandfather.
"Grandfather!", said Bo Li in tears.
"Stay in Ivander Liam's house like you live in Bo Li's house, just think of it as your own and wait until it's time!" said the grandfather.
"Grandfather, I don't want to go away from you and leave you alone!", said Bo Li.
"Ivander Liam's house is very safe, my granddaughter, the perfect place for you to live there and your safety will be assured there, Bo Li!", said the grandfather trying to comfort him.
Bo Li simply sobbed without being able to refute Grandpa Li's orders to her. Grandfather Li could only close his eyes while sighing deeply.
"Bo Li is an adult now and growing up to be a very beautiful and independent woman, Bao-yu, your daughter will be ready to replace you, my son" Grandpa Li said as he shed his tears.
***
The engagement ended an hour ago and now Bo Li is home with her fiance, Ivander Liam. Bo Li occupied a spacious and luxurious guest room on the upper floor of Ivander Liam's house, although it was very grand but looked very simple from outside when Bo Li saw it for the first time.
Bo Li stayed in his bedroom after a long cry, the only thing he could do when he came to Ivander Liam's house was to cry, for a long time he wept over the fate of his betrothed to a man he did not know even before, but this was the fate of his life that he had to accept, whether you like it or not, he has to accept it. Bo Li opened the gift from his grandfather and slowly he tore the paper that wrapped it, he was stunned when he saw the contents of the gift "A Diary?" , bo Li said in his heart then picked it up but the moment he touched the diary suddenly a bright light appeared from the direction of the book.
"SYSTEM HAS BEEN ACTIVATED !!! WELCOME TO THE ONLINE WORLD AND ENJOY VIRTUAL SERVICES!!!", a voice heard someone speaking from inside the diary.
"What?" said Bo Li agape in shock.
"BO LI 115 !!! THE SYSTEM IS ACTIVE !!!"
Bo Li just stood there looking at all the events before him without saying a word, he looked at the diary that had turned into a monitor screen that lit up and spoke, he looked into the screen full of numbers and letters that moved alternately filled the monitor screen. "How can the book change its shape and speak without ceasing, what should I do and he calls my name Bo Li 115, how does he know my name and is this the computer of the future ?", bo Li's mind was startled and walked closer to the monitor screen that was lit in front of him.
