Sharing Dreams with My Bestie’s Cousin
Chapter 180 - 180 This time she angered Shang Hexing

Chapter 180: This time she angered Shang Hexing Chapter 180: This time she angered Shang Hexing Wanyin’s kindness made it difficult for Wen Zhi to decline.

Especially after knowing that Wanyin had spent the whole day selecting a ring for her, Wen Zhi was moved and accepted it, “Thank you, madam.”

“To say thanks is to be a stranger,” Wanyin replied with a smile that held deeper meaning.

“It won’t be long before you’ll also be part of the Shang family,” Wanyin added.

Wen Zhi blushed and stammered.

Wanyin gently tapped Wen Zhi’s hand, “I heard about the incident at Mr. Zhou’s birthday banquet today. Had I not been feeling unwell yesterday, I would have seen Hexing protecting you at the banquet.”

Wen Zhi smiled shyly, lips pursed.

Wanyin also said, “When the time comes, we’ll be family, and you’ll have to call me mom, right?”

Wen Zhi’s lips twitched faintly.

“Alright, try it on and see,” Wanyin urged.

Wen Zhi nodded, took out the ring, measured it, and then slipped it onto the index finger of her left hand.

Wanyin gently held Wen Zhi’s hand, “Your hand is so beautiful, and with this ring, even moreso.”

Honestly, Wen Zhi couldn’t feel what was different about this ring compared to any other ring.

This might be the reason Wanyin had spent an entire afternoon customizing it.

But she could be sure that there was a gimmick hidden inside the ring.

However, when she tried to take it off, she discovered that the ring could not be removed and that the band had obviously shrunk since she had put it on.

She was certain this was not her imagination.

Wen Zhi had no choice but to try several more times to remove it, but it wouldn’t come off no matter what she did.

Wanyin then asked her, “What’s the matter, Zhizhi?”

Wen Zhi took a sharp breath, her tone slightly anxious, “Madam, the ring won’t come off.”

At first, Wanyin looked surprised, but then delighted, “If it can’t come off, then it must mean the ring has chosen you, Zhizhi. It recognizes its owner.”

Wen Zhi looked anxious on the outside, but internally she retorted, ‘Recognizes your head.’

Didn’t see this coming.

The hidden mechanism even includes shrinking the band.

That was a miscalculation.

“It’s okay, Zhizhi, if it can’t be taken off for now, just keep wearing it. When one day you get tired of it and don’t like it anymore, we can have a professional cut and destroy this ring,” Wanyin reassured.

And she was delighted because Wen Zhi really had put it on.

She also specifically instructed, “Keep it on recently; I think it suits you very well.”

Wen Zhi gave up, having confirmed that brute force would not work. She simply smiled and responded, “Alright, I’ll wear it every day for you to see.”

The two of them chatted unknowingly for a long time.

Meanwhile, Shang Hexing, who had returned to the old house, learned that Wen Zhi was still at Wanyin’s side and came personally to pick her up.

“Young master, why have you come?”

Zhao Qin approached respectfully. In the Shang family, no one dared to be disrespectful in front of Shang Hexing.

Shang Hexing came alone today. As he walked in, he asked, “Is Wen Zhi inside?”

Zhao Qin nodded, “Yes, Miss Wen Zhi is talking with madam. I’ll go let Miss Wen Zhi know right away.”

“No need. I’ll go get her myself and say hello to my mother,” Hexing glanced sidelong at Zhao Qin, his gaze icy and quiet: “You can leave.”

Zhao Qin dared not disobey, nodded, and turned to leave.

Approaching the door, Hexing was about to knock when he heard Wen Zhi’s voice from inside.

“Madam, I already know where his mother is buried; he told me himself.”

“Of course, it’s true. He said he wouldn’t lie to me. And since the deceased is gone, it’s just a gravesite. My uncle has nearly turned it into an obsession. Seeing it might even improve his health.”

“Of course, I can take you there myself.”

Inside, Wen Zhi’s voice was crisp, and her tone sounded like she was sharing something important.

Outside, a streak of fierceness flitted across the depths of Hexing’s eyes.
