Chapter 248 Can’t Even Afford a Ring
When they got their marriage certificate, Han Xi gave her a pigeon egg-shaped diamond ring, but she never gave him anything.
At that time, she thought that their marriage was just an arranged marriage and they might break up at any time, so she didn't think too much about it.
But now... since it has been decided that it is him, I naturally cannot do without what I need.
The diamond ring was too big and not very practical to wear on a daily basis. She hadn't worn it since the charity dinner and kept it at home.
Han Xi wants to make it public, so if that’s the case, then I’ll give him a wedding ring first.
Although she couldn't tell everyone that she was Mrs. Han for the time being, it seemed that she no longer needed to hide the fact that she was married.
Fang Li randomly found a jewelry store and took a look around, and she fell in love with a men's ring on the counter.
"Hello, please take out this ring for me to see."
"Ma'am, you have excellent taste. This ring isn't just a single piece; it's one of a pair. It's called Eternal Love and was created by Emil, the renowned Milanese jewelry designer. The men's ring is made entirely of platinum, and the top is inlaid with 1,314 tiny diamonds, symbolizing a lifetime. The women's ring is made of the same material, but the diamond at the top is a mere 5.2 carats. Together, they mean 'I love you forever.' This simple and straightforward expression of love brings the greatest emotional satisfaction to the other person. Sounds beautiful, doesn't it?"
The salesgirl introduced the items to Fang Li with a very happy smile. Originally, Fang Li only liked the men's ring, but the salesgirl took out the women's ring as well.
The design of the women's ring was very ordinary. It looked like a simple and common style. Adding to the meaning she introduced, Fang Li felt that it was a bit old-fashioned.
5201324........She chuckled and shook her head.
"Well, thank you. I'll look at something else..."
"Wait a moment, let me see."
Just as the salesperson was about to take the ring back, a beautiful female voice suddenly sounded beside Fang Li.
At the same time, a slender, white hand suddenly reached out from beside her, picked up the diamond ring on the tray and looked at it carefully.
Fang Li raised the end of her eyebrows, and a cool gleam flashed in her eyes.
She turned her head and, as she had guessed, saw Yu Wei, the leader, and two other beautifully and exquisitely dressed women.
The woman who was holding the diamond ring and admiring it was Yu Wei herself.
Yu Wei today is different from the one I saw on the pedestrian street that day. She seems to have become that glamorous female star again.
When he saw Fang Li's face, his expression changed slightly, and then he took two steps back with a look of surprise and apology in his eyes.
She smiled gently and somewhat reluctantly, "Fang Li, what a coincidence."
Fang Li looked at Yu Wei's ever-changing face coldly, not bothering to hide her feelings, her eyes were filled with inquiry.
Because she really didn't understand which one was the real her, and why her expression would change so much every time she faced her.
"Weiwei, who is she?" A girl wearing a goose yellow sweater and a white long skirt looked at Fang Li curiously and asked.
Before Yu Wei could say anything, another girl on her left, dressed in a black casual suit, sneered, "You don't even know her. She's the little celebrity who coveted Weiwei's boyfriend."
"Oh, by the way, he has retired now and is not even a celebrity anymore."
Fang Li sneered, not wanting to bother with them and was about to leave.
As a result, the girl on the left suddenly stepped forward and blocked her way, looking as if she would not let her go easily.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? You and Weiwei are colleagues after all. Why don't you chat when you meet? Why are you hiding?"
Fang Li raised her eyes coldly, "Get out of the way."
I didn't expect her to be so tough.
The woman on the right, who had no hostility towards Fang Li at first, also looked displeased. She looked at her and suddenly sneered, her face full of sarcasm.
"This is the first time I've seen a woman come here to buy a pair of rings. You're not crazy about men, are you? Seeing that you can't steal Weiwei's boyfriend, you just found a random guy to make do. What's the matter? He's so poor that he can't even afford a ring, and you want to buy it for yourself?"
"Even so, what does it have to do with you?" Fang Li glanced at her coldly and walked away.
She walked out of the store directly, took two more steps and entered another store.
There were a few scattered customers in the store. When Fang Li came in, a shopping guide immediately came to greet her.
"Hello Miss, what would you like to see?"
Fang Li forced a smile: "I'll take a look myself first."
She walked around the counter and soon set her sights on a set of wedding rings in the glass display case in the center.
This time, not only the men's ring, but also the women's ring touched her heart.
"Can you take this out and let me see it?"
The sales assistant's eyes lit up instantly when she saw it. "Of course, miss, you have good taste. This is a new style that just arrived in our store two days ago. There is only one pair in each branch, and it's called Love."
"Love?" Fang Li raised her eyebrows.
Salesperson: "Yes, but it's not the usual love character. This is the traditional Chinese love character, just like this women's ring. The perfectly cut heart shape is set in the center of the men's ring. The men's and women's rings together represent 'love', but they can also be two independent entities when separated. The meaning of this pair of rings is that love is not about self-sacrifice or blindly accommodating, but about two people relying on each other and accepting each other. Only then can complete 'love' be achieved."
'like'.......
Rely on each other and tolerate each other......
"Yes, I want this pair of rings..."
"Hey! Weiwei, come and see, this pair looks even better!"
A familiar voice interrupted from the side again, and then, the hand with diamond nails suddenly stretched out and directly hid the ring that Fang Li was holding in her hand.
Fang Limei's heart skipped a beat, and a chill instantly gathered in her eyes.
This time, she didn't even bother to raise her head. She took out her phone from her bag and said to the salesperson, "Please help me pack up these rings. Where can I check out?"
The salesperson was delighted and immediately pointed to the cashier on the other side. "Check out over there. Please wait a moment. I'll pack it for you."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the woman who had taken the rings and smiled politely, "Hello, I'm really sorry, but this lady has already bought this pair of rings. We have many other classic styles in our store. Why don't you take a look?"
"Pick something else?"
"Yes, just like the pair next to them, they are also the best-selling pair of rings in our store. Their meaning is..."
"Does good sales mean that many couples will wear it?"
The salesperson paused, then nodded slowly, "If you don't like it, you can look at other less popular items..."
"If no one else wants it, why should our Weiwei buy it?!"
"......." The shopping guide just froze there.
The woman in the black suit held the diamond ring in her hand and said, "Our Weiwei has taken a fancy to this pair. Buy it for us now."
