Chapter 100: Chapter 99: Eternal Love! [Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Favorites]
Sunx Ping unapologetically said: "He’s just a daffodil that doesn’t bloom, pretending, a bumpkin from the countryside, probably can’t even afford a necklace worth a few thousand, how could he afford such a flashy diamond?"
After she finished, her eyes lit up, clutching Zhao Jie’s arm, she coquettishly said: "Hubby, this diamond ring is so beautiful, can you buy it for me, please?"
"If you buy it for me, I’ll do whatever you want tonight!"
As she spoke, her voice softened, and a blush like the evening sky appeared on her cheeks.
Zhao Jie, with a provocative look, glanced at Li Chen and then at Ye Chuxue, and together with Sunx Ping, they strode towards the display cabinet.
A saleswoman in a cheongsam, with a beaming smile, introduced: "This is the At Long Last Love diamond ring, designed by top jewelers from Tiffany in the United States, its Chinese name is Eternal Love..."
Countless women around were going crazy for it, begging their husbands, boyfriends, even sugar daddies to buy it for them.
However, when these husbands, boyfriends, and sugar daddies saw the final price, they couldn’t help but gasp.
yuan?
One million yuan, enough to buy two houses in the city area.
Even a rich second generation like Zhao Jie couldn’t accept such a terrifying price.
Of course, if it were for Ye Chuxue, he would grit his teeth and still fork out this one million.
But now, it was for Sunx Ping, a woman he had tested the waters with and could abandon anytime in the future, it really wasn’t necessary to waste so extravagantly on her.
"I want this diamond ring!"
This voice wasn’t loud, but it exploded like thunder overhead.
Immediately, all eyes, men and women, turned towards the speaker.
Zhao Jie, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, exclaimed: "Brother, are you out of your mind? This is one million, not a hundred, what makes you think you can buy it?"
Sunx Ping scoffed: "Ha, just him? A bumpkin from the countryside. I bet he has never seen a million in his whole life!"
Other spectators, seeing Li Chen’s attire, which did not resemble that of a wealthy disciple, also shook their heads.
Ye Chuxue also gently tugged at Li Chen’s arm, reproachfully saying: "Li Chen, have you lost your mind?"
Li Chen smiled at Ye Chuxue, took her small hand, and walked towards the counter under the gaze of thousands.
"Please fetch me this ’Eternal Love’, thank you!"
The cheongsam-clad woman scrutinized Li Chen thoroughly, her face showing difficulty, and said: "Sir, our store’s rule is that you must pay a deposit upfront in order to try on the ring!"
"The deposit is 10,000 yuan, and it’s not refundable if you don’t purchase!"
Zhao Jie scoffed coldly: "Haha, beauty, looking at his attire, his entire outfit probably sums up to only 500 yuan, how could he possibly put down a 10,000 yuan deposit?"
"Exactly, just a clown seeking attention, doesn’t he know how to write the word ’embarrassment’?"
"How has the standard of this mall dropped, letting any Tom, Dick, or Harry in!"
"I’m not coming here anymore, appearing in the same mall as bumpkins, it’s just too degrading!"
...
Self-proclaimed elites from the upper class mercilessly switched into ridicule mode. Their sharp and harsh words were endless.
Some high-end socialite women even subconsciously took a few steps back, as if getting too close to Li Chen, the bumpkin, would lower their own status.
Li Chen smirked!
He casually took out a card and slapped it authoritatively on the display cabinet.
"Charge it, full payment!"
This was the tribute given to him by Du Meng, no more no less, exactly one million.
The woman in the cheongsam, half-doubtful, took the bank card, pulled out the POS terminal, and swiped the card.
"Ding, payment successful!"
Although the system notification sound wasn’t loud, it struck like thunder, hitting the nerves of everyone present.
Sunx Ping and Zhao Jie were stunned, their faces in utter disbelief.
"He’s just a bumpkin from the countryside, how could he possibly have so much money?"
"Oh my gosh, one million? He didn’t even blink and spent it just like that?"
"Wow, which family’s son is this? So lavish!"
Debutantes and socialites, at this moment, were looking at Li Chen with starry-eyed admiration.
Just this simple act of swiping his card transformed Li Chen from a showy bumpkin to a wealthy tycoon experiencing life among the elite.
Li Chen didn’t care about their opinions, took the Eternal Love, and knelt on one knee in front of Ye Chuxue.
"Chuxue, I like you!"
Ye Chuxue didn’t expect Li Chen to confess to her in front of such a large crowd. Moved, she covered her face and wept.
The onlookers around them were also touched by Li Chen’s simple yet romantic confession.
Especially the lovestruck girls, they were all envious of Ye Chuxue.
At this moment, they were full of hopes for their futures, wishing that one day they too would have a Prince, holding flowers and a diamond ring, making a vow of love to them, transforming them into a princess and receiving blessings from the world.
"Accept him, be together!"
Someone shouted, and cheers erupted throughout the mall.
"Wow, how romantic, be together!"
"Be together, be together!"
"Be together!"
...
Ye Chuxue’s clear eyes, filled with sparkling tears, gently nodded her head.
Seeing Ye Chuxue nod, Li Chen smiled and stood up, placing the Eternal Love ring on her right middle finger.
Looking at the shimmering diamond on her finger, Ye Chuxue felt like she was in a dream. It was like being in God’s Eden Garden, both misty and vivid.
Seeing the happy smile on Ye Chuxue’s face, Li Chen couldn’t help but smile warmly.
In his previous life, he had let her down too much.
In this life, he swore to leave no regrets.
The applause around them sounded like thunder, blessings like Cupid’s arrows of happiness, shooting from all directions.
Throughout the process, Ye Chuxue was in a fairytale dream.
It was not until the sun set and night began to fall, as Li Chen and she walked home hand in hand, that she realized she had finally been caught by someone.
Ye Chuxue blinked her eyes and said to Li Chen, "Hey, your confession was so simple, just six words!"
Li Chen asked, "Then how many words do you want?"
Ye Chuxue pouted and said, "At least seven or eight hundred words, right?"
Li Chen, exasperated, said, "Do you think you are writing a college entrance exam essay? Seven or eight hundred words?"
Ye Chuxue playfully complained, "I don’t care, it doesn’t count this time. I’m a naturally beautiful and smart young lady. How could I be so easily fooled by you? That’s not scientifically plausible!"
Li Chen, sheepishly asked, "Uh, so what would be scientifically plausible?"
Ye Chuxue fluttered her eyelashes and said, "Imperial Uncle Liu asked Zhuge Liang by visiting the thatched cottage three times. You succeeded on your first try; I feel like I’m at a loss!"
Li Chen frowned and replied, "Why don’t you mention how Zhuge Liang subjugated the Southern Barbarians, capturing Meng Huo seven times?"
Ye Chuxue fluttered her long eyelashes and said, "That’s also true, then confess seven times. I’ll reject the first six, and agree on the seventh!"
Li Chen held his forehead with one hand and said, "Oh my gosh, give me back the ring!"
Ye Chuxue covered the diamond ring on her right hand tightly with her left and giggled, "Giggle, nope, I worked hard to trick you into it, why should I give it back?"
Li Chen shouted, "Either return the ring or break it off, you choose!"
Ye Chuxue turned and cheekily beckoned Li Chen with her finger, giggling, "Hee hee, come catch me, if you catch me, I’ll give it back!"
