Chapter 177 Buying a Ring

This time, unlike the last time when he was slow to realize that Su Youling was in danger, seeing her unconscious in his arms covered in blood this time shocked and frightened Li Tingxi.

If something really happens to Su Youling this time, he will regret it for the rest of his life for not being able to officially announce his relationship with Su Youling in his lifetime, instead of letting her suffer under the name of Shen Xiyue.

Just then, Li Mufeng called, the phone ringing very urgently.

Seeing that Li Tingxi was looking out the window without reacting, Qin He couldn't help but remind him, "President, the phone."

"Stop the car first." Li Tingxi looked out the window, his eyes deep.

"Okay." Qin He was puzzled. He stopped the car and was about to get out, thinking that the president was going to make a phone call, so he was going to voluntarily give up his seat.

Li Tingxi waved his hand, stopping him. "Wait here for a while."

After saying that, he opened the car door, got out, and walked out, answering the phone as he spoke, "Okay, what's up now?"

Qin He glanced in surprise in the direction Li Tingxi had left—a jewelry store?

On the phone, Li Mufeng sighed and said seriously, "After the examination, Shen Xiyue is recovering well, and she insists on returning to China now."

Li Tingxi didn't say anything, stepped into the jewelry store, and went straight to the counter.

He was tall, handsome, and had a powerful presence. He looked like a wealthy patron, and the saleswomen's eyes lit up as they lined up to try and sell to him. But when they saw him on the phone, they didn't dare to make a sound.

Li Tingxi glanced at everyone, frowned unhappily, and waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to push sales for the time being. Only then did the saleswomen reluctantly leave.

"Li Tingxi, are you even listening to me? Why are you so quiet?" Li Mufeng said unhappily. "I've been working so hard for your old flame lately, and you..."

"Li Mufeng, if you can't speak properly, then shut up." Li Tingxi frowned and scolded, "I am a married man now."

Li Mufeng was shocked for a long time. He picked up his phone and looked at it. The person on the phone was indeed Li Tingxi, but when did he ever say such shocking things?

Does this mean they've denied Shen Xiyue and officially acknowledged Su Youling?

Li Mufeng frowned and quickly asked, "What do you mean? Isn't Shen Xiyue's name on your marriage certificate? Logically speaking, she should be your wife."

"That won't be the case for long," Li Tingxi said coldly. "You'd better put an end to your little schemes now, because no one else will have a chance with Su Youling."

This wasn't the first time he had warned Li Mufeng, but it was the calmest yet most powerful warning he had ever given. Even Li Mufeng was stunned, sensing the storm brewing beneath his calm exterior.

"What did you do to Su Youling?"

“This is a matter between the two of us, you’re meddling too much.” Li Tingxi was about to hang up the phone after saying that. It was just in time for Shen Xiyue to return to China. He could take this opportunity to completely resolve the old issues so that Su Youling could have a clean future.

"Wait a minute, don't hang up yet." Li Mufeng quickly stopped her. "Li Tingxi, Shen Xiyue's return isn't just for you. The trial of Shen Cong and his wife is about to begin. Without Su Youling's letter of forgiveness, those two are definitely finished. Shen Xiyue will definitely go to Su Youling to plead for them when she returns to China."

At that time, Li Tingxi will inevitably be caught in the middle between the two women, facing a dilemma.

He initially called because he didn't want Li Tingxi to hurt Su Youling for Shen Xiyue's sake, but Li Tingxi's attitude now was unexpected.

He probed, "If you want to protect Su Youling, you shouldn't have let Shen Xiyue return to the country. I'll help you detain her."

"No need." Unexpectedly, Li Tingxi agreed. "As long as Shen Xiyue's body can handle it, arrange for her to return to China."

"Are you deliberately trying to drive Su Youling crazy?" Li Mufeng gritted his teeth in anger, about to give him a good scolding, when Li Tingxi hung up the phone.

The jewelry store manager, with a graceful smile, walked over and asked, "Sir, how may I help you?"

The other sales assistants looked at Li Tingxi with envy and infatuation, but unfortunately, such a big customer was snatched away by the store manager as soon as he arrived.

Otherwise, even if he doesn't buy jewelry, just talking to the handsome guy a few more times would be a huge win.

“I want to buy a ring.” Li Tingxi paused, then emphasized, “A wedding ring.”

"So you're getting married, congratulations!" The store manager quickly led him to the VIP room, had Li Tingxi take his finger size, and then completely ignored the jewelry in the display case. He had someone specially fetch several haute couture pieces, each with an outrageous price tag. "You can take a look at these. They are all newly released haute couture pieces this year, and each ring is unique in the world. They can be engraved on the spot, symbolizing that the newlyweds are devoted to each other and will stay together until old age."

Devoted to each other, to stay together until old age?

Li Tingxi's eyes darkened slightly. He opened a few boxes and glanced at them. His gaze fell on the last pink diamond. The design seemed ordinary, but upon closer inspection, the patterns on it were exquisite and all hand-carved. The most stunning part was the pink diamond itself.

Although it's not as big as a pigeon egg, it's much brighter than a regular diamond. The cut lines aren't very obvious, making it look like a naturally formed diamond.

"Sir, you have a truly discerning eye." Seeing Li Tingxi's gaze drawn to the pink diamond, the shop manager quickly had all the other pieces sent away, and proceeded to enthusiastically explain, "This pink diamond is the largest complete pink diamond mined this year by our Latin American team on a newly developed mining island. It's extremely rare and priceless..."

"This one was originally intended to be the final product at the Paris Fashion Show, but when I saw you, I felt that this diamond was destined for you... Although the price is indeed outrageously expensive, it is definitely worth the money..." In the end, the store manager also became a little hesitant in his words.

To be honest, this pink diamond is indeed priceless, with an astonishingly high price tag. Looking across the entire city of B and even the whole country, there are very few men who can afford to buy this diamond.

Although the man in front of her looked sophisticated and wealthy, he wasn't one of the celebrities in B City that she knew, and the shop manager wasn't sure if he could afford it.

Seeing that Li Tingxi didn't react much to the pink diamond, the store manager was a little disappointed but still smiled and said, "It's okay, we can look at other styles..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Tingxi pulled out his card without hesitation and said, "This is it! Arrange for engraving! I'm short on time."

The store manager's eyes widened when he saw the black card.

A top-tier black card with only ten copies issued worldwide?

This isn't something that can be bought with money; it's something only the world's richest person can afford!

Where did this amazing person come from? Even if the head of the Lu family or the legendary Yin family came, they wouldn't be as generous as him.
