She had no idea that she was about to be wearing a diamond ring.
Huo Jinyao had disliked the ring randomly picked out by her, so he had discarded it right after their wedding.
Now, holding her hand, Huo Jinyao was trying to put a diamond ring on her.
“Oh, you’re awake?”
Huo Jinyao said, with a mischievous expression. Su Qingsang blinked and gazed at the ring, feeling like she was stunned.
This ring must be at least five-carats. It was a pink, heart-cut diamond with a simple but stunning design. It was even s.h.i.+mmering indoors.
Blinking again, Su Qingsang asked. “You bought this for me?”
“Do you like it?” Huo Jinyao answered.
Lifting herself up, Su Qingsang raised her hand and gazed at it for a while. She was still shocked. “You really bought this for me?”
“Yep.” Huo Jinyao replied with a complacent expression.
“How much was it?” Although she was just an illegitimate daughter, she knew how valuable this ring must have been.
“Not that much.”
It had been about more than a million dollars, but he still thought he should have bought a bigger one for her. It was not the appropriate time to utter that.
“What do you mean by not that much?”
“Just thousands of dollars,” Huo Jinyao said, gazing at Su Qingsang and holding her hands. “You think this is a real McCoy?”
“Is it not a real McCoy?”
This diamond ring looked so gorgeous and high quality, how can it be a fake? She thought.
“Yes, it is just a fake.” Huo Jinyao said as he grinned. “This is fake.”
“Fake?”
“Yes, it is.” Huo Jinyao uttered, feeling guilty: “It just costs a few thousand dollars.”
“Only a few thousand?” Raising her hand and gazing at that diamond ring, Su Qingsang couldn’t believe it didn’t cost more.
“Honey.” Seizing this opportunity, Huu Jinyao held Su Qingsang’s waist. “Although it wasn’t that expensive, I spent a lot of time selecting it for you. It is so authentic that it can confuse people. It is rare to find a ring like this in such price.”
“Oh.”
This fake was so authentic that it even confused her. Now, she believed it was possible for someone to be cheated into buying fakes at a high price.
“Although it wasn’t that expensive, it still cost me half monthly salary. ” Huo Jinyao leaned on Su Qingsang. “Honey, are you unsatisfied with this fake?”
“How can I be?” Actually, Su Qingsang disliked these jewelries. “It’s ok. As a doctor, I can’t usually wear jewelry.”
She could not wear jewelry on the job.
“I know, but I hope you can usually wear it around the house.”
Wearing it more often would make men realize she was married.
“I know.” Su Qingsang said, wanting to get the ring off. Meanwhile, Huo Jinyao held her hands.
“What are you doing?”
“I just…” Staring at Huo Jinyao with a bit of a confused expression, she said. “I’m going to be was.h.i.+ng clothes and cleaning the room later. Just let it come off.”
“Honey.” Huo Jinyao smiled. “Honey, your hands are so beautiful that should they not be bothered by such trifles. I called a part-time housekeeper. She will come by later.”
Staring at him, Su Qingsang had no problem with hiring a part-time housekeeper because sometimes she was too busy to clean.
Huo Jinyao did surprise her by making this arrangement, though. He had just found a new job and should save some money.
He had bought gifts for Qiu Yanbo and her family. Now, he bought a ring for her.
Either way, now she didn’t have to clean. Although she appreciated his kindness, she still felt confused.
“Well, now that you are awake, let’s eat some food.”
Huo Jinyao reached out his hands to help her up.
Looking at Huo Jinyao’s slender and well-shaped hands, Su Qingsang thought Huo Jinyao’s hands were masterpieces.
Staring at Huo Jinyao’s face, Su Qingsang couldn’t imagine him doing housework.
Su Qingsang recalled everything that had happened since they met and was suddenly more curious about Huo Jinyao.
Huo Jinyao, are you really just an ordinary person?
