Chapter 389: 389, Declaring Sovereignty?
Who would have thought…
[So, the sweetheart wants to wear a wedding ring with her husband to stake her claim?]
Su Wanwan was taken aback. Was this wedding ring?
Why was there only one ring in the picture?
And its price was the lowest…

Banquet hall.
Chu Xiuhuang slipped one hand into his suit trousers pocket, leaning against a glass cabinet, with a smirk, said seductively, “You, come over.”
The staff immediately scrambled over to attend to him, “Mr. Chu, do you see any jewelry you like?”
“This one ring.”
“Mr. Chu has a good eye. Actually, this comes in a pair for a man and a woman, a limited edition worldwide under this brand. There are only five pairs in China and they can be used as wedding rings.” The staff were brown-nosing, “Would Mr. Chu like to try it on? If the size isn’t right, we can adjust it immediately.”
Chu Xiuhuang’s smile deepened, “Sure.”
After saying that, he waved a couple of times to the back.
So, Shi Huan, who was originally talking with a client, had no choice but to come over, “Mr. Chu.”
The staff had brought out the pair of diamond rings.
Chu Xiuhuang pointed with his finger, “You try on.”
“Okay,” Shi Huan didn’t think too much about it.
After all, it wasn’t the first time experiencing something like this. Mr. Chu was known for being a big spender, lavishing gifts on women. As a secretary helping to test the quality or style…
“I’ll take these rings.” Huo Jingshen’s cold voice suddenly resounded.
Chu Xiuhuang’s eyebrows raised as he looked at the mature and distinguished man next to him, “Big Brother, you’re not going to seize it from me, are you?”
Huo Jingshen didn’t even glance at him, “Wrap it up for me.”
The staff, who was about to hand one of the ladies’ diamond rings to Shi Huan, was immediately caught in a dilemma.
Chu Xiuhuang was the eldest son of the Chu family, reckless and audacious, known for his many scandals. He was the man everyone in Nancheng both loved and feared. Who would dare offend him?
On the other hand, Huo Jingshen was the eldest grandson of the Huo family. Although he was more low-key and reserved than Mr. Chu, his wealth and family background were undeniable. The staff couldn’t dare to offend him either.
What should they do?
So Chu Xiuhuang smirked, “Big Brother, I saw it first.”
It appeared as if Huo Jingshen had only noticed his presence now. His narrow and deep eyes looked at him, his voice indifferent, “What’s a bachelor who doesn’t even have a proper girlfriend doing buying a pair of rings?”
“Damn!” Chu Xiuhuang straightened up, “Can’t I give it to my secretary?”
The named secretary, Shi Huan, quickly said, “Mr. Chu, I can’t accept this gift.”
“If I give it to you, take it. What’s all this about whether you can or can’t?”
“Mr. Chu, please don’t make this difficult for me.”
Chu Xiuhuang was almost choked by his own anger.
Damn it.
So many women beg for his gifts, and when he kindly gives her a ring, can she not beg him not to give it and say don’t put her in a difficult position?
“Ms. Secretary, are you a woman?” Chu Xiuhuang’s handsome face darkened, “Have you heard the saying? Diamonds are a woman’s best friend.”
Shi Huan adjusted her black-rimmed glasses, “Mr. Chu, do you really know what the ring symbolizes?”
“Whatever it signifies, it’s merely a piece of jewelry. I can gift it to whoever I want.” Chu Xiuhuang answered arrogantly.
Shi Huan curved the corners of her lips, “But the name of this pair of diamond rings is…’Together for Life’.”
Chu Xiuhuang raised his eyebrow again, “So?”
The smile on Shi Huan’s lips deepened as she turned to Huo Jingshen, “Mr. Huo, this pair of diamond rings is very beautiful and has a great name. I’m sure Mrs. Huo will love it.”
Chu Xiuhuang sneered immediately, “His wife is busy studying every day, not coming home, couldn’t even make it to bed, and he’s talking about ‘Together forLife’…shh!”
He looked down at his black leather shoes, then slowly turned to the shameless old man in front of him, “What are you stepping on me for?”
Shi Huan was taken aback.
Huo Jingshen remained expressionless, only the corners of his lips curved into a faint smirk, “It was just an accident.”
Chu Xiuhuang’s mouth twitched, “Huh.”
If you’re going to claim it was an accident, I’ll write my name backwards!
The old man is wicked!
Narrowing his eyes, he couldn’t help but lean in and whisper, “If it weren’t for seeing how pitiful you are in your desires, I wouldn’t even give it to you.”
However, Huo Jingshen responded as if he hadn’t heard him, and said to Shi Huan, “Ms. Shi has good taste.”
Shi Huan could just respond with a smile.
And then, Huo Jingshen glanced at Chu Xiuhuang again, launching another attack, “Not like someone, who is shallow.”
“Am I shallow?” Chu Xiuhuang could only sneer again, “Ha, you’re deep, you Huo Jingshen!”
Huo Jingshen couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.
A thirty-year-old man who acted like a child, so immature!
Everyone has a responsibility to love children with intellectual disabilities.
He looked at the staff with deep eyes, “Can you wrap it up for me?”
“Of course, Mr. Huo.” The staff were overjoyed and quickly got to work.
Ten minutes later.
Looking at Huo Jingshen taking his victorious leave with a triumphant back, Chu Xiuhuang’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Unhappy!
Very unhappy!
Sowhen Shi Huan’s voice rang out, “Mr. Chu, I’ll go and attend to the guests first.”
“Stop!”
Shi Huan frowned, “Mr. Chu, do we need to try anything else?”
Chu Xiuhuang slipped one hand into his trousers pocket, tilted his head, gestured at all the jewelry on display with his other hand as if he owned the place, and in an overbearing tone, “I will take everything in this display area.”
Shi Huan was surprised.
Take all?
What does that mean?
But the staff’s eyes immediately sparkled. They excitedly rushed over, “Mr. Chu, do you mean… you want all the jewelry here?”
“Correct! Here! Now! I’ll take all of them!” ChuXiuhuang’s words were deliberate and emphasized. After speaking, there was an evil grin on either side of his lips, “So, Ms. Shi, now all the jewelry here belongs to you. Aren’t you happy?”
