“It’s not… about the betrothal gift… You should have told me earlier. You scared me…” Nie Wuming chuckled and immediately looked at the ring in Ye Wanzhu’s hand, saying, “This ring… isn’t it the one you showed me last time?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanzhu nodded and said, “Yes, it’s exactly the ring I showed you last time.”
“Oh damn… You didn’t call me over just for this, did you?” Nie Wuming looked puzzled. “I charge a few hundred bucks per minute, and time is precious…”
“Enough with the nonsense.” Ye Wanzhu glanced at Nie Wuming. “Do you or do you not recognize it?”
“It’s just a ring. What’s so special about it? I really don’t know,” Nie Wuming sighed helplessly.
“You really don’t recognize it?” Ye Wanzhu looked at Nie Wuming with some doubt.
One of the stolen items from the Nie family, the Sub-Ring in the Fearless Alliance Library, was related to these two rings, which were supposed to be a pair. Nie Wuming, as the eldest young master of the Nie family, how could he not recognize them?
“Don’t lie to me. I’m asking you seriously,” Ye Wanzhu said.
“Sis, what’s our relationship… I have no reason to deceive you over a worthless ring. I either recognize it or I don’t. I’m telling you sincerely, I really don’t recognize it,” Nie Wuming said helplessly.
Ye Wanzhu carefully observed Nie Wuming and found that he didn’t seem to be lying. It appeared that Nie Wuming truly didn’t know the origin of this ring.
“Bro, you keep asking me what the ring is for. Is there something special about it?” Nie Wuming looked curious.
To this, Ye Wanzhu shook her head. She had no idea about the ring’s significance. If she had known, there would have been no need to ask him.
“Apart from that… do you have any impression of this ring?” Immediately, Ye Wanzhu took out the Sub-Ring from the Fearless Alliance Library and handed it to Nie Wuming.
“Isn’t this the same as your ring…?” Nie Wuming looked slightly puzzled.
“Take a closer look,” Ye Wanzhu said.
Upon hearing this, Nie Wuming continued to examine the ring. After a moment, he said, “It’s actually different… in terms of material and craftsmanship, it’s not comparable to your ring.”
What Nie Wuming said was exactly the same as the Grand Elder had mentioned, and Ye Wanzhu already knew.
“This should be the pair of rings… Do you really have no impression?” Ye Wanzhu asked.
The Sub-Ring was stolen from the Nie family. Logically speaking, if this ring was important, Nie Wuming shouldn’t be completely clueless.
“Pair of rings?”
Hearing Ye Wanzhu’s words, Nie Wuming stared at her, looking confused.
“Yes, the one I have is the mother ring, and yours is the child ring,” Ye Wanzhu explained.
“Oh damn… Sister, are you taking advantage of my lack of education?” Nie Wuming threw the ring onto the table. “It’s just a pair of lovebird rings.”
“Not a pair of rings?”
Ye Wanzhu’s expression became slightly strange. Elder Da Chang had clearly stated that they were a pair of rings.
“Of course not a pair of rings. They’re obviously lovebird rings,” Nie Wuming sneered. “I used to sell accessories at a stall in Huaguo, I know this stuff!”
Ye Wanzhu: “…”
Thinking back to when
she first met Nie Wuming, he was indeed selling items at a stall…
“Lovebird rings…” Ye Wanzhu’s expression became more puzzled. She understood the meaning of the pair of rings through Elder Da Chang’s words, but what did lovebird rings mean?
At this moment, Ye Wanzhu stared at Nie Wuming, chuckled softly, and asked, “Um… what exactly are lovebird rings?”
