With one hand leaning on the car window, Shen Antu watched couples coming in and out of the jewelry store with happy smiles on their faces. He felt jealous and didn't know whether the ring he chose that day was sold.
As he thought about it, Shen Antu started to plan his wedding with Xie Duo. Xie Duo's leg injury would not heal for the time being, so they might not be able to hold the wedding before the New Year. So they could move it to after the New Year, but how long after the New Year is it? The second day of the Chinese New Year is called after the New Year, and December 31st is also after the New Year. So, does a wedding have to be held before getting married...
Shen Antu was daydreaming when suddenly a pink Porsche stopped nearby. Shen Antu looked in the direction of the luxurious car body and saw a young woman in a little dress getting out of the car and walking towards the jewelry store.
The traffic jam finally started to move, but Shen Antu suddenly said to Tang Jun, "Find a place to park, hurry up!"
Tang Jun maintained his good habit of keeping silent. He didn't ask any questions and did whatever his boss told him to do. Soon, he used his superb driving skills to squeeze out of the traffic and parked in a parking space in the commercial plaza.
"Wait for me here, I'll be back soon." Shen Antu patted the driver's seat, put on his coat and got out of the car.
If he was not mistaken, the woman just now should be Chong Shirui, his nominal number one rival in love.
Shen Antu had known Chong Shirui for a long time. More than half a year ago, Xie Duo, who always brought his secretary to a banquet, brought a female companion for the first time. That woman was Chong Shirui.
At that time, there were rumors that the Xie family was going to marry the Chong family. Shen Antu was sad about this for a long time, but in the end the matter was left unresolved and there was no follow-up. Shen Antu almost forgot about this person, but recently there were similar rumors again, because there was gossip news that Chong Shirui braved the heavy snow in Country B some time ago to visit the injured Xie Duo, and kept sighing at the power of love.
Bullshit love!
Shen Antu got so angry when he thought about the time when he couldn't accompany Xie Duo while this woman could see Xie Duo every day. Now that she has returned to China and went to a jewelry store famous for wedding rings, it is hard not to make some associations.
As soon as Chong Shirui entered the store, there was a special shopping guide serving him individually. Diamond rings were lined up on the counter, each sparkling with dazzling light, making it difficult to choose the best one from them.
She was indeed here to pick out an engagement ring. Although Xie Duo refused to nod, at least Xie Changqing and Li Wei agreed. The parents of both families had already discussed the engagement date, so she couldn't wait to choose a ring today.
"Let's... this one." Chong Shirui pointed at a platinum diamond ring and said, "Let me try this one."
"Okay, you have a really good taste." The salesperson had just taken the ring out of the box when suddenly a large, bony hand snatched the ring away.
"I want this wedding ring." Shen Antu placed the ring between his thumb and index finger and played with it, pretending to admire it.
Chong Shirui was surprised, and was surprised again when he saw Shen Antu's face: "Shen... Mr. Shen?"
Shen Antu smiled and apologized to her: "I'm sorry, Miss Chong, my family fell in love with this ring a few days ago. I wonder if you can give it to me?"
Chong Shirui stared at Shen Antu's smiling face for a few seconds before coming back to his senses: "You... you know me?"
Shen Antu held the ring towards her and squinted at her through the ring: "How could I not know such a beautiful lady like you?"
Anyone would be overwhelmed by such praise, let alone being praised by a handsome guy like Shen Antu. Chong Shirui blushed a little: "Boss Shen is really a joker... By the way, you said that your family member liked this ring? I thought you and Miss Yu..."
Shen Antu took the ring back into his palm and explained, "Of course it's not Yu Keyan. I have nothing to do with her anymore. I'm talking about the other one."
"Is that so..." Chong Shirui thought of Shen Antu's romantic rumors and laughed awkwardly. He didn't know what to say, so he turned to the shopping guide and said, "Then I want this sapphire one."
"Sorry, I want this one too." Shen Antu interrupted.
Chong Shirui frowned and pointed to another one: "Then this..."
Shen Antu: "Excuse me, Miss Shopping Guide, please put all these on my account."
Chong Shirui finally realized something was wrong. She looked at Shen Antu with a sullen face and said, "What is Mr. Shen doing? How many girlfriends do you have that you need so many rings?"
Shen Antu stood beside her, first looking down at her for a few seconds, then suddenly broke into a charming smile: "Ms. Chong, you misunderstood. I want to buy these rings, but I didn't say I want to take them all. You can choose any one of these rings and take it away. I will pay for it all."
Chong Shirui realized that he had wrongly accused Shen Antu, and was very embarrassed. He quickly said, "How can this be possible!"
"Why not?" Shen Antu took a step forward and leaned over the counter. The distance between him and Chong Shirui suddenly shortened. He blinked and stared at Chong Shirui with his peach blossom eyes full of water. "Such a beautiful lady actually came alone to choose a wedding ring. Your boyfriend is too irresponsible."
Chong Shirui seemed to be bewitched. She stared blankly into Shen Antu's eyes and said stutteringly, "I... I'm not here to buy a wedding ring. I just... I just want to give it a try..."
Shen Antu moved closer to her, and now the distance between them was no more than an arm's length: "Just give it a try?" Shen Antu looked her up and down, and his voice suddenly became low, "If Miss Chong was my girlfriend, I would definitely not want to let you go out alone."
