Chapter 227 Our President Zhou’s Beloved
While the two were talking, the price had risen by another 50 million.
Fifty million is not just a simple number.
Xu Ge hadn't raised the sign for a long time. Except for the first time, she hadn't raised it since then. It was Zhou Chen who raised it afterwards.
Seeing that he was about to lift her up again, she wanted to hold him.
"I don't really like it either, forget it."
“Think I can’t afford it?”
Xu Ge was speechless. "You can afford a hundred of them, but there's no need. Using this ruby as a wedding ring is too extravagant. I wouldn't wear it even if you bought it."
"Then buy another pair of plain rings to wear daily, and keep this one as a collection."
Xu Ge's persuasion was fruitless, and He Jinyang, who was standing by, moved over to the aisle.
"Xiao Ge, he has money. He's so poor now that he only has money left. Let him spend it. Don't feel bad for him. Half of the money we'll earn today will be donated to charity anyway."
I watched the ring increase from 100 million to 200 million.
Zhou Chen remained calm and indifferent, but Wang Qian's face darkened.
But she just didn't want to give in, so just as she was about to grit her teeth and raise the sign, the man next to her held her wrist tightly.
“That’s enough!”
Wang Qian frowned and turned to look at her husband beside her, "I like that ring."
The man just smiled gently when he heard this, his eyes calm but cold, "I think you are someone who likes to bid for the ring with you."
Wang Qian's expression suddenly changed, as if someone had hit the nail on the head. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The man gently dodged the number plate in her hand and whispered, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it's the number Mr. Zhou is planning to bid for his female companion. Everyone is consciously giving way. You keep bidding, and you know what you're thinking. If you want to embarrass yourself, please don't bring me along."
Wang Qian's eyes flashed, and she couldn't help biting her red lips. Only then did she realize that the people around her seemed to be whispering, their eyes falling on her from time to time.
Seeing this, the man patted her back soothingly and said, "Don't embarrass yourself, Wang Qian."
Wang Qian's eyes turned red for a moment.
In the end, Zhou Chen won the bid for the ruby diamond ring.
When the staff carefully handed the ring to him, Zhou Chen directly picked up the ring, pulled Xu Ge's right hand over, and put the ring on her ring finger.
Xu Ge looked at the ruby that was as big as a pigeon egg, and he had to say that it was really eye-catching.
"Is it appropriate?"
Xu Ge moved his fingers and found that it was surprisingly suitable, neither too big nor too small.
“It seems just right.”
Zhou Chen curled the corners of his lips, took her hand and put it down, took out the black card and handed it directly to the staff.
The staff member took the card with both hands and turned to go to the trading desk.
Xu Ge moved his hands, wanting to take a closer look at this ring worth more than 200 million yuan.
"Mr. Zhou..."
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from behind.
Although she is a woman, she sounds mature.
He Jinyang muttered softly, "Why is this person here too?"
Xu Ge subconsciously turned his head to look. The woman looked elegant and wealthy, but even if she took good care of herself, it was obvious that she was not young anymore.
But that’s not the point. The point is that the man next to the woman is so familiar.
Just because that person was Feng Youcai.
He Jinyang leaned on
She whispered in his ear: "This is the wife of a certain high-ranking official.
The one next to him is his lover☆☆▏☆..☆,
There is a nearly fifteen-year age difference between the two."
Xu Ge's eyelids twitched slightly.
She knew Feng Youcai's age.
But this woman is fifteen years older than Feng Youcai.
That woman must be in her sixties.
"It doesn't look like it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them walked up to him.
Zhou Chen reached out and shook the woman's hand. "Hello."
The woman smiled and nodded, then her eyes fell on Xu Ge's face and stared at her for a long time.
"The young lady next to Mr. Zhou looks unfamiliar. I wonder which family she is from?"
Zhou Chen glanced sideways at Xu Ge and saw that her expression was calm. When she noticed his gaze, she turned her head and looked over at him. The two of them clasped hands and looked into each other's eyes.
"Ours."
The woman didn't understand for a moment and raised an eyebrow.
He Jinyang said from the side, "Madam, this is Xu Ge. She grew up in the Zhou family and is the apple of Mr. Zhou's eye..."
The corners of Xu Ge's lips twitched slightly. Although the Mingzhu in his palm was appropriate, it didn't seem quite right.
He Jinyang seemed to realize that this adjective was not accurate, so he quickly added another sentence.
"He is also the apple of our President Zhou's eye."
The wife nodded in realization and smiled at Xu Ge.
"So, Miss Xu is the future Mrs. Zhou?"
Zhou Chen let go of Xu Ge's hand and stroked her back instead. His voice was low but gentle. He leaned forward slightly and tilted his head to the side while speaking, clearly lowering his posture.
"Xiaoge, say hello to the wife."
Xu Ge nodded and stretched out his hand with the ruby ring on it. "Hello, ma'am. I'm Xu Ge."
The woman looked at the ring on her hand and smiled meaningfully, then quickly shook hands with her.
"I heard a few years ago that there was a little girl with you. I guess it must be Miss Xu."
Zhou Chen's thin lips curled slightly, and he nodded gently, "It's her."
"Has the wedding date been set?"
"Not yet. Once it's decided, I'll personally invite you to attend."
The woman smiled and nodded. "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
Xu Ge was now leaning tightly in Zhou Chen's arms, with half of her waist wrapped in his arms, showing a very supportive attitude.
But there was someone who seemed to be secretly staring at her, glancing at her from time to time.
But Xu Ge could only pretend not to know and keep smiling.
"Mr. Feng has been staring at my fiancée. Is there something wrong?"
When Zhou Chen said this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at Feng Youcai, as if they didn't expect him to suddenly attack.
Feng Youcai then realized that he had been staring at his fiancée, and he quickly retracted his gaze. When he met the woman's inquiring eyes, he couldn't help but shudder.
"It's okay, it's okay. I just thought Miss Xu looked familiar."
Xu Ge narrowed his eyes, smiled calmly and generously, and kept his gaze on Feng Youcai's face for a long time before speaking.
"I'm sorry, but this is the first time I've met this gentleman. I just returned to China a while ago. Maybe I look more ordinary?"
Feng Youcai chuckled twice. Xu Ge's face was extremely aggressive. Obviously, it was a face that anyone who had seen it would never forget. How could it be an ordinary face?
"I was mistaken. It was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..."
The wife gave him a warning look and said, "Okay, I won't bother you two anymore. The next one is antiques, calligraphy and paintings. I'll go see if there are any good collections."
Zhou Chen nodded slightly, but glanced at Feng Youcai with a very indifferent look.
The woman noticed it, so she pursed her red lips, and before leaving, she couldn't help but take a deep look at the woman next to him before turning and leaving.
Seeing this, Feng Youcai hurriedly supported her elbow, but he couldn't control his eyes and couldn't help but look at Xu Ge again and again.
