Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 1208 - 1227: The Ring

Chapter 1208: Chapter 1227: The Ring

"You... you actually..." Zuo Xinyao couldn’t digest the news for a long time, "Does the Huo family know? Does Ke Wei know?"

"Not yet!" Huo Beijiang seized the opportunity while his wife hadn’t noticed and quickly put away the little red book.

Obtaining the marriage certificate was too rushed at the time, and there was never a moment to retrieve it. Later, too busy, he had put off dealing with it until Wei Qin made a trip to Qi Li Town and had someone bring it back. In fact, Huo Beijiang had held it for less than half a day.

Originally, at the school gate, he planned to show it to his wife the moment he got it. But then his wife provoked his anger, and he dismissed the idea.

Huo Beijiang decided that the next time he saw someone, he would take out the little red book and brag about it.

Zuo Xinyao was shocked into silence, deeply intimidated by Huo Beijiang’s thick skin, and for a long time didn’t know what to say. Only after a good while did he speak in a subdued tone, "Does your wife know about Jiang Yang’s matter?"

The sudden mention was like a bucket of cold water poured over him, causing Huo Beijiang’s expression to instantly darken as he shot Zuo Xinyao a murderous look.

"She doesn’t know yet, does she? I bet if your wife found out, she might divorce you on the spot." Zuo Xinyao finally scored a point, "We all know about the commotion at your house this afternoon! With all the excitement, it’s enough gossip for everyone for the next half a year."

"Good news stays inside, bad news spreads far and wide." He snorted coldly, speaking with irritation, "I advise you to pretend you don’t know anything! The Huo family’s jokes are not so fun to watch."

"No one’s laughing at the Huo family, we’re looking at the Wei Family."

Meanwhile, Nan Fei was catching up with Chen Cuihua, and took the opportunity to pick up the couple’s rings she had ordered earlier. She had drawn the design and sent it to Xin Yuan Customization when she and Bei Jiang went to get their marriage certificate, and they were unique in the whole world.

Now they were finally ready.

"Let’s go! Let’s head back." Nan Fei, waiting to meet Jiang Yang, didn’t delay after receiving the rings and said goodbye to Chen Cuihua and Zuo Xinyao, not even having time to visit Gu Qiu, who was busy in his office.

It wasn’t until they left the Xin Yuan’s doors that Nan Fei took out the rings she was holding.

"Here you go!"

The blue velvet box opened to reveal a pair of radiant rings sparkling brilliantly. The men’s ring was a simple and sharp design, made of platinum and inlaid with a very rare blue diamond. Inside the ring, the inscription read "Nan Fei with you till the end of time."

The women’s ring was made of the same material and design, only half as fine as the men’s, and the diamond was pink. It was also engraved with words; when the two rings were put together, the inscription read "Nan Fei and Bei Jiang, till the end of time and beyond."

Nan Fei had put a lot of thought into this gift, especially the two rare colored diamonds. The blue represented calmness and restraint, very fitting for Bei Jiang. The inscriptions were also elaborate – the size, design, the separate styles, and the combined style, and so on.

Huo Beijiang, upon receiving the ring, was a mixture of shock, delight, and anger. The tall, composed man didn’t speak for a long time, his eyes slightly reddened.

"Do you like it?" Nan Fei asked with a smile.

"Hmm!" Huo Beijiang nodded emphatically and then said through gritted teeth, "I really like it, but it’s so embarrassing."

"Huh?"

"I’m obviously the one who should be giving you a ring, yet it’s turned into you giving me one. How can I, a grown man, save face?" It was so shameful!

"Ha ha ha..." Nan Fei finally burst into laughter and didn’t stop until Huo Beijiang pulled her into his embrace. "But doesn’t all of your salary go to me each month?"
