Chapter 829: Blind Date (13)

Translator: Lordbluefire

As soon as Zeng Keyi entered the room, before even spotting Zhu Lijian, he noticed a waiter packing up the one-carat diamond ring. He quickly strode over and looked at Chu Qianshu as he asked, “I thought we weren’t buying this?”

Chu Qianshu sighed, “I want this one.”

Zeng Keyi hadn’t spoken yet, but Zhu Lijian, who was standing nearby, chimed in, “Of course she’s going to buy it. This is the engagement ring you gave her, it belongs to her.”

Zeng Keyi,”?”

He glanced at Zhu Lijian, someone he no longer recognized, and turned his attention to Chu Qianshu, asking, “You know him?”

Chu Qianshu had long found Zhu Lijian annoying, so she raised an eyebrow and said, “Ex-boyfriend.”

This triggered a memory in Zeng Keyi.

After all, the first time he stood up for Chu Qianshu was still vivid in his mind.

He immediately frowned at Zhu Lijian and said, “Are you here to buy a ring too?”

Zhu Lijian smirked, “Of course.”

Then he added, “But I’m different. I’m buying the ring for my wife, and it’s my wife’s money paying for it. She’s not taking advantage of me, so I’m definitely getting her a good one.”

“Turns out you’re a ‘phoenix man’!” Zeng Keyi sarcastically commented.

Zhu Lijian’s face turned red, “You…”

Before he could finish, seeing Chu Qianshu trying to hold back a smile, he couldn’t help but retort, “What are you laughing at? If I’m a ‘phoenix man,’ then you’re a ‘phoenix woman’! What right do you have to mock me? And I’m definitely more honorable than you. Even if we get married, we’re still two separate individuals, never one. Spending your future husband’s money like this is truly embarrassing! I’ll certainly never spend my wife’s money on myself!”

His words sounded like the epitome of integrity.

Chu Qianshu rolled her eyes and decided not to indulge him.

The way he had been talking just now felt like a buzzing fly, annoying and incessant. She turned to the shop assistant, “1 want the place cleared.”

The shop assistant was momentarily surprised but quickly contacted the manager.

The manager arrived shortly, immediately spotting Zeng Keyi. To ensure that he could purchase the right ring, Zeng Keyi had been to the store many times, and the manager, being astute, had already gathered information about his background.

With a smiling face, though somewhat awkward, the manager began, “Mr. Zeng, um, we do have specific requirements for clearing the area here in the store. It’s necessary to make purchases exceeding a certain amount within our mall… um…”

Zeng Keyi’s family wasn’t the type to buy luxury goods regularly. His mother came from a modest background, and they had lived frugally. Plus, he didn’t have any sisters. So, he didn’t have enough points accumulated in this store.

Thus, Zeng Keyi didn’t have the privilege to clear the area.

This prompted a laugh from Zhu Lijian, “So, it’s all a show. You have no right to do anything here? You’re not afraid of embarrassing yourself! Hahaha!”

Zeng Keyi was unperturbed and even chuckled at that. He turned to the manager and asked, “If I can’t clear the area, what about my fiancee?”

The manager was taken aback and looked at Chu Qianshu.

Zhu Lijian, standing aside, was also taken aback, “If you don’t have the right, how could she possibly have it? You…”

Before he could finish, he saw Chu Qianshu take out a bank card from her wallet and hand it to the manager, “1 request the area be cleared.”

The manager was visibly surprised and remained stunned as he looked at the bank card. He quickly plastered a smile on his face, “Sure, sure, Miss Chu, I will arrange for the area to be cleared immediately.”

At this point, there were only two customers in the store, so clearing the area essentially meant escorting Zhu Lijian out.

The manager turned to Zhu Lijian, “Sir, I apologize, but please wait outside the store…”

Zhu Lijian furrowed his brows, about to retort, but the manager firmly added, “If you refuse to leave, we might need to call security.”

Mystified, Zhu Lijian was ushered out and ended up waiting at the entrance.

Not far away, separated by a glass door, he could still see Zeng Keyi and Chu Qianshu engaged in a dispute over the ring.

In the end, Chu Qianshu won, and she left with the one-carat diamond ring.

Even after they had gone quite a distance, Zhu Lijian still couldn’t understand.

Buying a one-carat diamond ring gave her the right to clear the area?

And why couldn’t Zeng Keyi clear the area, but Chu Qianshu could?

With this doubt in mind, he entered the store.

Before he could even inquire with the shop assistants and salespeople, he overheard two salespeople whispering.

“Miss Chu was really amusing. She absolutely refused the five-carat diamond ring, claiming it was too big and would affect her work. She insisted on the one-carat one.”

“Right, do you know how Mr. Zeng finally compromised?”

“I’m not sure.”

“It was Miss Chu who said, if she bought the one-carat ring, she would wear it every day. But if she bought the five-carat one, she would just keep it stored away. After all, there are so many big diamonds at her house.”

Zhu Lijian was dumbfounded.

He swallowed hard and suddenly asked, “Excuse me, the Miss Chu you’re talking about, is it Chu Qianshu? Who… is she from?”

The shop assistant looked at him and said, “How many Chu families can there be in the capital? Of course, it’s from one of the five great prestigious families, the Chu family! Miss Chu is really low-key. Mr. Zeng being able to marry her must be due to some good karma from a past life.”

Hearing this, Zhu Lijian went into a daze.

He stood still!

It wasn’t until this moment that he finally understood what he had missed….
