029: Three carats downgraded to one carat, she also likes it

"……good."

Xu Yao's voice also inexplicably became smaller.

Gu Jun was not the first man to put a ring on Xu Yao. Xu Yao had also received a three-carat engagement diamond ring from Chen Yan, but the feeling at that time was obviously different from now. Gu Jun is Xu Yao’s husband now!

A little ambiguity appeared between this couple who got married quickly.

After more than a month of getting along with each other, at this moment, Gu Jun and Xu Yao both tacitly understood that they were moving towards a goal: they should not be just roommates, they can try to be a real couple.

Gu Jun put the ring firmly on Xu Yao's hand. The size was just right.

"How do you know my ring size?"

Xu Yao was a little surprised. Gu Jun coughed lightly and said, "How do you know that I don't need to worry about it? As long as it's suitable, it's fine."

Xu Yao didn't ask any further questions.

No matter how Gu Jun found out her ring size, it showed that Gu Jun was very concerned about buying her a ring. He did not just buy a diamond ring to fool Xu Yao.

"It's beautiful, I like it very much, thank you."

Xu Yao didn't hide her satisfaction. She picked up the plain men's ring and asked Gu Jun, "Shall I put it on you too?"

Gu Jun nodded.

Xu Yao gently held Gu Jun's hand.

The touch of fingertips continued the little ambiguity from just now. Gu Jun's hand temperature was higher than Xu Yao's... Xu Yao felt a gaze above her head. She didn't dare to look up and look at Gu Jun. However, her hand was not steady and the men's ring almost slipped. Gu Jun said "be careful", and Xu Yao's face turned red.

Fortunately, the men's ring was finally put on Gu Jun's hand without any danger, and Xu Yao quickly let go of Gu Jun's hand.

"Shouldn't you be going out now?"

Xu Yao tried to hide her embarrassment by changing the subject.

Gu Jun was actually a little uneasy. He hadn't felt anything unusual on the day he and Xu Yao got their marriage certificate. The chaotic, flash marriage hadn't felt real. Now, with the wedding ring on, Gu Jun felt that he and Xu Yao were truly married.

"I still have a little time. Do you want me to take you to the Wen family first?"

Xu Yao hadn't asked Gu Jun to pick her up, and Gu Jun had figured this out on his own. He had always been a man who was stingy with his emotions, but Xu Yao was different to him. Wearing the wedding ring seemed to have broken through that barrier. Wasn't it natural for him to be considerate to his wife?

"No, no, I've already planned to take a taxi to the Wen family. Just do what you need to do and don't disrupt today's plans."

Xu Yao also felt this subtle change, and she still needed time to adapt.

Gu Jun did not force Xu Yao. He suggested that they go downstairs together.

When they reached the parking lot, Gu Jun suddenly asked Xu Yao: "Let me buy you a car. We don't go to get off work on the same route, and it will be much more convenient for you to have a car."

"ah?"

Xu Yao didn't expect Gu Jun's thoughts to be so jumpy.

Before the Xu family went bankrupt, Xu Yao had a driver to take her wherever she went. After the Xu family went bankrupt, Xu Yao gradually adapted to the common people's way of traveling. South City has a well-developed public transportation infrastructure, and taking the subway is sometimes more convenient than driving. Apart from the need to squeeze with other passengers during rush hour, there is nothing wrong with it.

Xu Yao didn't know why Gu Jun suddenly had this idea. She didn't want him to spend too much money. She was currently living in the house Gu Jun bought, and Gu Jun bought a gift for Lin Meixian and a diamond ring for Xu Yao. Xu Yao couldn't afford to pay back any of these expenses at the moment. If Gu Jun bought her a car, she would be even more unable to pay it back.

The relationship between the two had just taken a step forward. Xu Yao did not refuse too abruptly. She adopted the tactic of "dragging".

"Buying a car is a big deal. Can we discuss it in detail after we're done with these few days?"

"Alright."

Gu Jun didn't think too much about it.

The car was bought for Xu Yao, so of course Xu Yao had to choose her favorite brand and model.

The couple took a taxi and drove in different directions. Gu Jun was in a good mood the whole way. While driving, his eyes kept subconsciously looking at the wedding ring on his hand. Looking at it, Gu Jun smiled: Today is a good start.

Similarly, Xu Yao would subconsciously look at the diamond ring on her hand while taking a taxi to the Wen family's house.

When Xu Yao arrived at the Wen family, Lin Meixian was still putting on makeup.

A stylist and several assistants were serving Lin Meixian. The dress that Lin Meixian had chosen early had been ironed and hung aside. Everything was busy but proceeding in an orderly manner.

Xu Yao had just called out "Mom" when Lin Meixian asked her to sit next to her.

"I was thinking of asking them to do your hair and makeup, but you did a good job of getting it done yourself."

Lin Meixian not only prepared a stylist for Xu Yao, but also prepared a dress. Seeing that Xu Yao's makeup and outfit today were well matched, Lin Meixian did not force Xu Yao to change into the clothes she prepared.

As a mother, she knows her daughter best. Lin Meixian knew that Xu Yao didn't want to spend the Wen family's money.

Xu Yao chatted with Lin Meixian for a few words, and Lin Meixian noticed the diamond ring on Xu Yao's hand.

"Gu Jun bought it?"

"Um."

Xu Yao smiled and nodded, holding out her hand for Lin Meixian to take a closer look. "Mom, does it look good?"

Lin Meixian sighed secretly. The diamond ring had been downgraded from three carats to one carat. Fortunately, Xu Yao was so generous that she could still smile.

"Gu Jun has a good eye and knows how to pick things."

Lin Meixian didn't want to spoil Xu Yao's fun, so she joined Xu Yao in praising the small one-carat diamond ring. After that, she asked why Gu Jun didn't come.

"The company sent him to the school today to do a charity donation drive. He will be here before lunch."

Xu Yao spoke of Gu Jun with pride, "Being able to represent the company at this event shows that Gu Jun is not only knowledgeable about technology, but I can also feel that the boss really values Gu Jun."

Lin Meixian thought that no matter how much she valued him, he was just an employee.

Lin Meixian reminded Xu Yao: "Chen Yan might show up today. Gu Jun knows about him and you, right?"

Xu Yao frowned, "Why is Chen Yan here?"

Xu Yao knew that the Wen family and the Shen family had some business dealings, so it was normal for Wen Zhicheng to send an invitation to the Shen family. However, based on Xu Yao's understanding of Shen Yan, even if he received an invitation, Shen Yan's parents would probably come, but Shen Yan would definitely not come.

Lin Meixian's tone was indistinguishable from joy or anger: "Wen Yiyi invited Chen Yan alone. She deliberately wanted to see you laugh today, but as long as you and Gu Jun can be a united couple, it doesn't matter if Wen Yiyi invited Chen Yan."

Xu Yao frowned: "Uncle Wen just doesn't care about her and lets her do whatever she wants?"

Lin Meixian smiled and said, "How can I complain to your Uncle Wen about such trivial matters every time? If I do so too often, it will only embarrass your Uncle Wen."

Wen Zhicheng was caught between his daughter and his step-wife, and it was difficult for him to cope with the situation. Over time, this family no longer had any warmth for him, but only disputes. A man who worked hard outside would not want to return to a family full of disputes.

Xu Yao understood what Lin Meixian meant.

"I'll make sure Gu Jun is mentally prepared."

Wen Yiyi wanted to make fun of Xu Yao and also wanted to cause trouble at Lin Meixian and Wen Zhicheng's wedding banquet, but Xu Yao refused to let Wen Yiyi succeed.

Chen Yan is indeed a rich second-generation man who can make ordinary men feel inferior, but Gu Jun is not an ordinary man.

Anyone who can break away from his original background through his own efforts and strive to reach an elite level in the field he is engaged in has the confidence!
