Chapter 252


    After a moment’s hesitation, J still took the dazzling blue diamond ring off despite Ethan’s objection


    and ced it on his palm.


    Ethan let go of her and stared at the diamond ring. “What are you doing?”


    J folded his fingers against the diamond ring and smiled at him. “The family heirloom must be of


    great significance to you. Judging from the expression of the shop attendant today, it looks like the ring


    is more precious than we think, so I can’t wear it.”


    “I will never take back what I give others.” Ethan’s brows furrowed as he stared into her eyes.


    However, he was relieved that J stopped asking him where he got the ring.


    J bit her lip and looked at him, her eyes glinting with mischief. “I’m not returning it to you. I just


    want you to safely keep it for me. I’ll wear it on important asions. It’s ridiculous to wear such an


    enormous ring every day knowing it’s the real deal.”


    Ethan had no choice but to put the ring away. He decided it would be better for him not to give any


    valuable rings to J for the time being.


    “All right then. I’ll keep it in a safe ce. You can wear it whenever you want,” Ethan muttered, stroking


    the ring. “Let’s go to the mall now. You pick a diamond ring you’d feelfortable wearing every day,


    and I’ll pay the bill.”


    After a moment’s thought, J nodded. “It’s alreadyte now. Why don’t we go tomorrow after I get off


    work?”


    Then, she turned around to return to her room.


    Ethan grabbed her elbow and dragged her to his side. “Are you ying dumb? What did I tell you?” he


    asked, raising his chin toward the bedroom.


    “I don’t know what you are talking about.” J’s cheeks turned red. She had clearly heard what Ethan


    said earlier.


    Ethan was blocking her way to the bedroom. He folded his arms across his chest and looked into her


    eyes. “You’re not mad at me, so you can move back into my room.”


    J looked up at him and snorted with disdain. “Since you lied to me again, I’m going to see how you


    behave before making a decision. Get out of my way. I have to go to work tomorrow.”


    Ethan’s face drooped with disappointment. He sighed and stepped away, letting J return to her


    room.


    …


    The next afternoon.


    After J got off work, Ethan picked her up, and the two went to the shopping mall together.


    J didn’t want expensive rings from luxury brands, so Ethan took her to a small jewelry shop in the


    mall.


    After examining the different rings disyed before her, J finally picked a simple ring with a small


    stone.


    “That’s the one.” J picked it up and smiled. “I think it’s beautiful.”


    Although the ring looked in and simple, it wasfortable and gave her a sense of assurance.


    She looked up at Ethan and asked, “Would you like to get a matching ring as well?”


    The smile on J’s face melted his heart. He nodded and tried to choose a matching diamond ring for


    himself.


    Finally, J picked out a pair of affordable yet elegant diamond rings for themselves.


    However, Ethan wasn’t used to buying inexpensive jewelry, so he felt a bit ufortable.


    “Put it on.” J took out the ring from the brocade box and slid it on Ethan’s finger


    . An ecstatic smile emerged on her face as she ced her hand beside his and saw the two matching


    rings sparkling under the light.

    Ethan couldn’t help but smile at how happy she looked.


    Just as they were about to leave after paying the bill, a woman walked into the shop. She was wearing


    a hat, a pair of sunsses, and a mask.


    The woman clutched the bag in her hand and hurriedly strutted forward.


    J frowned when the woman walked past her. The dress she was wearing looked somehow familiar.


    J stopped and turned to look at her again.
