A romantic proposal in Guang’an, Sichuan province, took an unexpected and hilarious turn when a woman unknowingly ate the engagement ring her boyfriend had hidden in a cake. The amusing incident was shared on social media by a netizen named Liu, who quickly gained the attention of thousands with her post titled, “Attention, all men: Never hide a proposal ring in food!”
Liu explained how, after arriving home hungry one evening, she eagerly devoured a taro and meat floss cake her boyfriend had prepared for her. Covered with a thick layer of meat floss, she chewed through it until she encountered something hard. Initially thinking it was a poor-quality ingredient, Liu prepared to complain to the bakery. However, her boyfriend, noticing her confusion, wiped the object clean and revealed, “Honey, I think this might be the ring I was going to propose to you with.”
At first, Liu thought he was joking, but soon realized it was indeed a gold engagement ring. In the awkward silence that followed, her boyfriend hesitantly asked, “What do we do now? Should I still kneel?” Liu, unable to contain her laughter, encouraged him to go ahead with the proposal, which she happily accepted.
Liu later described the moment as the “most dramatic scene of the year” and humorously advised against hiding engagement rings in food. The incident, shared widely, sparked humorous reactions from netizens, with some joking about her strong bite and others playfully remarking about the risks of using food as a proposal medium.
