Chapter 172: Chapter 172: What I Give You, Just Take It

Upon hearing these words, Wen Ran felt as if her head had exploded with a bang.

She immediately tensed up.

Because indeed, she had thought about it.

Wen Ran didn’t know what had been going through her mind at the time.

Perhaps it was his superior physique that had caused her a significant visual impact, or maybe it was because she had never seen a man’s body before, which had led her to let her imagination run wild for a moment?

But who could have thought that, several days after the fact, a fleeting thought in her mind would be singled out for discussion by this man?!

Wen Ran didn’t dare let her thoughts stray any further and quickly snapped back to reality.

She shook her head innocently at him, stubbornly denying it, "I... I didn’t think about it, didn’t I just say? It was just something I made up on the spot to anger Xu Tong."

"Just made up on the spot? You might as well tell me, have you been lusting after my body for a long time?"

"No... no, I wouldn’t dare."

Fu Chenlie obviously didn’t believe her, huffing lightly, his voice tinged with a hint of teasing, "Now you’re pretending to be the Little White Rabbit, saying you wouldn’t dare? Back in front of Xu Tong, you were bold enough to do anything without consulting me at all. Where did that reckless courage go?"

Wen Ran frowned, disliking how he was settling scores with her after the fact.

She glanced at him displeased, "You didn’t expose me just now in the jewelry shop either, did you? Since you were already compliant, why are you keeping accounts with me now?"

"I was used by you, can’t I even ask why?"

"... Saying ’used’ is a bit too serious, isn’t it? You are my husband, after all; it was just a small favor."

Fu Chenlie lightly scoffed, "You really have a way with words."

She denied it, retorting, "How do I? I’m telling the truth."

He casually stroked his lips but didn’t continue the verbal sparring.

All of a sudden, the man lowered his head and glanced at the hand she was holding at her side, pinching her clothes, and took hold of it.

Wen Ran couldn’t help but feel nervous, "What are you doing?"

He’s not going to kiss her fingers again, is he?

In the midst of her suspicions, she heard the man’s cold voice, "I just saw a very ugly ring that I thought would suit your ugly face and fat hand perfectly."

Wen Ran’s face was unhappy as she retorted, "Where am I ugly? You’ve said before that I was beautiful, and besides, my hands might not be slender, but the people in our town all say my hand is one that..."

Before she could finish saying "is destined for fortune," a diamond ring was suddenly slipped onto her ring finger.

She was taken aback in an instant, her eyes wide with surprise as she looked at Fu Chenlie, "What... what do you mean by this?"

He slightly lifted his lips, countering her question with his own, "Five metallic items and a diamond, is that enough now?"

Amidst her astonishment, Wen Ran blurted a series of inquiries, "Grandma said we don’t need that much, three gold ornaments would be sufficient but you already bought five, why buy a diamond ring as well? Diamonds are very expensive, and the one you gave me is so big, could it be that this ring is more expensive than all the other gold ornaments you bought? Moreover, how did you know my ring size?"

The man furrowed his brows at her, impatiently countering, "So many questions? Aren’t you annoying?"

"I’m just..."

"Alright."

Fu Chenlie interrupted her coldly, leaving her with, "What I give you, you take."

After saying that, he did not let go of her hand but instead held it tighter and pulled her towards the exit of the mall.

Wen Ran passively moved her feet along with him.

Out of the corner of her eye, she sneakily glanced at the man beside her. His lips were tightly pressed, his face stern, and his profile excessively handsome, down to the superior contour of his jawline, so perfect it was almost too much...

Wen Ran was just about to avert her gaze when she suddenly heard him ask, "Do you like it?"
