Fated to My Billionaire Husband - Chapter 272
Chapter 272: Chapter 272: Buying Wedding Rings_1
She assisted him outside and followed him into the car, only resuming her journey back to the restaurant after a while.
Upon noticing the redness in her eyes, Xiao Lang took Yufei’s hand and frowned slightly, “Why were you crying?”
Jian Yufei bit her lip, “Grandfather said he would give me a check for fifty million when I get married, but I declined. Xiao Lang, grandfather truly treats me well. He’s been the kindest person to me since I married into the Ruan family, just like my biological grandfather.”
Xiao Lang embraced her and chuckled, “I’ll also treat you well in the future. Don’t be too moved by that.”
“That depends on how well you treat me.” Jian Yufei hugged him back, her lips curling into a sweet smile.
Xiao Lang held her silently, a pair of eyes glittering with a mixture of subtle emotions.
Jian Yufei kept her divorce a secret from her family. She also didn’t mention her decision to marry Xiao Lang.
When Xiao Lang asked why she didn’t say anything, she responded, “Let’s wait until after we’re engaged. Otherwise, I fear my stepfather will ask a high bride price.”
When she married Ruan Tianling, he had asked for a bride price once. This time, she wouldn’t allow him to exploit Xiao Lang.
Xiao Lang didn’t mind. He said he would follow her lead and do whatever she arranged.
An engagement isn’t a marriage, so there’s not much in the way of preparations required.
However, when Jian Yufei and Xiao Lang went to the jewelry store to buy their engagement rings, they unexpectedly bumped into Yan Yue and Ruan Tianling.
They had also come to pick rings.
Upon seeing them, Yan Yue clung to the man beside her and joyously said, “Tianling, I want to try this one. Do you think it looks good?”
Ruan Tianling glanced at Jian Yufei and Xiao Lang, then withdrew his gaze, “Not bad. Bring out all the latest designs for us to see.”
“Mr. Ruan, please wait a moment. We will immediately present all our newest designs for you to consider.” The manager personally attended to them. In the presence of such esteemed guests, they couldn’t dare show the slightest negligence.
Jian Yufei tugged on Xiao Lang’s clothes, whispering, “Let’s go. We’ll try another store.”
She didn’t want to see Ruan Tianling and Yan Yue.
Xiao Lang patted her hand, smiling, “It’s okay. We’re already here, let’s just take a look.”
“But…”
“May I assist you with anything?” A shop assistant approached them, interrupting their conversation.
Xiao Lang pulled Yufei to a counter to sit and told the shop assistant, “We’re planning to buy wedding rings.”
“These are all our latest designs. Please take your time choosing. If you’re not satisfied, we have dozens of other styles.”
Xiao Lang let Jian Yufei choose. She carefully pondered for a while, but none caught her fancy. The shop assistant replaced them with new styles, treating them with impeccable service.
“Tianling, I like this one. Let’s buy this one.” Yan Yue wore a ten-carat diamond ring and cheerfully addressed the man beside her.
Their proximity allowed Jian Yufei to catch a glimpse of the ring on Yan Yue’s finger as she looked up.
This massive diamond ring, under the specialty lighting of the store, sparkled dazzlingly. Its price would certainly be over a million.
Xiao Lang leaned in and whispered in her ear, “If you like it, we can buy an even bigger one.”
Jian Yufei chortled, not anticipating that he would also have a moment of disparaging others.
“No need, I don’t like ones that large.” She shook her head, and her gaze inadvertently landed on a dainty diamond ring.
While it wasn’t the most unique, it was indeed pleasing to the eye and exquisite. It gave off an irresistible charm, no matter how many times you saw it.
