“Why don’t you just buy both?”
Li Beijue glanced at her and furrowed his eyebrows.
Indeed.
If he bought only one, and left the male model here, and if another man bought it, wouldn’t Chi Enen end up wearing couple rings with another man?
The thought of Chi Enen possibly wearing couple rings with another man made him change his mind. He grunted an affirmation to the lady boss.
The lady boss joyfully took the money.
At this moment, Chi Enen came back with the Pineapple Rice.
As soon as she entered, she called out, “Li Beijue, I got the Pineapple Rice you wanted.”
He quickly tossed the male-version ring into his bag, lifted his head, and his eyes caught sight of the little lady’s blushing cheeks. The corner of his mouth unconsciously curved up as he waved her over, “Come here.”
Chi Enen, puzzled, walked over, her cheeks warm, “Here, Pineapple Rice. Eat it while it’s hot. 1 ran back with it, so it’s definitely still burning.”
“Put the rice on the cabinet first, and stretch out your hand. I’ve got something for you.”
“What is it?” Chi Enen asked, full of curiosity, but still placed the Pineapple Rice on the nearby counter. Then she extended her hand, “What exactly is it? You’re being so secretive.”
“Left hand.”
“…Oh.” Chi Enen switched to her left hand, tilting her head inquisitively.
The cold-faced man grabbed her hand, lowered his head, and Chi Enen couldn’t see what he was doing. She only felt a cool sensation on her ring finger.
After a moment, Li Beijue released her hand, and Chi Enen then realized that there was a ring on her finger.
The silver ring shone brilliantly in the sunlight, extremely beautiful.
While she was still dazed, the noble man took her small hand in his large one, and the two matching silver rings seemed as if they were made for each other, shimmering with luster.
“You once gave me a ring in Ryukyu; now I’m giving you one. Chi Enen, don’t ever take it off.”
He hadn’t forcefully demanded that she not take it off.
Instead, he asked gently that she not take it off.
That feeling was like a lion yawning in front of you, no matter how you looked at it, it was spine-chilling.
Li Beijue waited for a long time, but seeing that she still didn’t seem to react, showing no sign of happiness or gratitude, his chest felt blocked, and he couldn’t catch his breath.
Does this woman have no EQ.at all?
As a boyfriend giving a gift, especially a ring, shouldn’t she show a bit of happiness?
What did that guarded and dubious look in her eyes mean?
He was giving a ring, not handcuffs; he wasn’t going to eat her up, was he?!
“Don’t you have anything you want to say to me?” His tone suddenly turned stern.
Something to say? Chi Enen snapped back to reality, saw his slightly displeased gaze, and got a jolt. Without thinking, she blurted out, “I understand, I definitely won’t take it off.”
“…!” That wasn’t what he wanted to hear!
He was giving a gift, why was she acting like she had received a bomb, responding with a soldier’s reflex!
Li Beijue ended up frustrated after giving a gift, his face turning ashen. He snatched the female-version of the Couple Outfit from the cabinet and roughly stuffed it into Chi Enen’s arms, commanding in a foul tone, “Take it and change into it!”
Chi Enen was taken aback, cradling an armful of clothes, not understanding why he was upset again. She looked down and asked, “This is…?”
Upon closer inspection, wasn’t this the Couple Outfit the lady boss had introduced just now?
She suddenly understood, lifted her head, “You bought it?”
The lady boss, used to seeing young couples bicker, noticed the slight tension between them and quickly interjected with a smile, trying to smooth things over, “Yes, the handsome guy wanted to give the beauty a surprise, so he bought this set of clothes. Beauty, why not go to the fitting room and try it on? I think it would suit you very well..”
