Editor's Note:
Qin Kai, a Chinese diving bronze medalist, got down on one knee and proposed to He Zi, who minutes ago landed a silver medal in Sunday's women's springboard competition which was won by fellow Chinese Shi Tingmao. He Zi was surprised. After a lengthy wait, she said "yes" to her boyfriend of six years.
