Chapter 454 The Origin of the Collection

When Aragorn said this, there were tears in his eyes. It seemed that the thing was very important to him, so why was it sold?

Huang Tianyi obviously thought so too. She said bluntly, "Uncle, was such an important thing stolen? Robbed? Or did you sell it when you were short of money?"

There was a hint of sadness in his deep light brown eyes. "Neither. I gave it to the girl I love."

Well, another sad story.

"So not only did the girl you loved leave you, she also sold your heirloom?"

Huang Tianyi looked at him sympathetically and comforted him, "Don't be sad, there are a lot of scumbag men and women in this world, there's nothing you can do if you meet them, just be more open-minded.

Why don't you go talk to Old Master Tang and see if you can buy it back and give it to the next aunt..."

Huang Tianyi looked at Uncle Aragon's age and couldn't say such words to the next girl, so she stuttered.

This amused Aragorn. "It's not impossible to give it to the next aunt. Your suggestion is very good."

Everyone laughed, and the sad atmosphere created by Aragorn's tears was swept away.

Aragorn said to Tang Yuye, "Miss Tang, I need to see your great-grandfather. I must know the origin of this ring."

Our group returned to the cocktail party. Mr. Tang, wearing a bright red Tang suit, sat on a mahogany carved armchair in the middle, his face beaming as he accepted everyone's blessings.

Xiao Shiqiu was chatting with a few middle-aged men not far away. When he saw me, he waved me over. "Have you had enough of wandering around? Come with me to say hello to Old Master Tang. He heard I brought my girlfriend with me, and he just wanted to meet you."

"Okay, come on, I want to go over and listen to the international gossip~" I pulled him towards Mr. Tang.

I happened to hear Mr. Tang reminiscing about how he received the ring.

“Mr. Ambassador, I remember the ring you mentioned, it was twenty years ago.

I went to S City to attend a party with old friends. Before the party started, I had nothing to do so I thought of going to Huabaozhai first.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a very beautiful girl, no, a very beautiful pregnant woman arguing with the manager of Huabaozhai.

I had nothing to do anyway, so I leaned over to listen." Mr. Tang spoke slowly, pausing to take a leisurely sip of tea from his cup.

Aragorn was obviously very anxious, but he was too embarrassed to push him. Seeing him like this, Tang Yuye sympathetically urged him, "Grandpa, please continue. Don't keep us in suspense."

"Hey, that's what I was saying. The little girl has a pretty impatient temper. I don't know who she takes after."

"Grandpa!"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you. That beautiful pregnant woman wants to sell a ring. She says it's the only thing her husband left her. Now that her husband is gone, she has to raise the baby in her belly, so she has no choice but to sell the ring."

Aragorn had a look of pain on his face and muttered something in Spanish that we didn't understand.

His companion patted his shoulder and said a few soothing words that we couldn't understand.

Mr. Tang continued, "The store manager offered a very low price of 80,000. The pregnant woman disagreed, saying the ring was worth one million. I took a look and found it to be of good quality.

Although I have confiscated foreign antiques and don’t know how much they are worth, the ruby ​​on the ring is quite large and the craftsmanship is indeed old-fashioned.

I think it's not easy for that pregnant woman. She became a widow at such a young age. Maybe her family is relying on the money from selling the ring to support her child.

My heart softened at that moment, and I said I would take it.”
