Nie Wuming gently placed the coffee cup in his hand on the table and looked at Ye Wanzhan in astonishment. “Damn, girl, you don’t even know about the Mandarin Duck Ring… It’s a Mandarin Duck Ring, and what else could it mean if it’s a pair of Mandarin Ducks? It’s a couple’s ring.”
“A couple’s ring?”
Ye Wanzhan looked strangely at the ring on her hand and the one she had stolen from the Nie family. They were supposed to be a pair of couple’s rings?! What kind of joke was this?
If it was a mother-child ring, Ye Wanzhan could still understand, but a couple’s ring? If it was really a couple’s ring, then… whose ring was it?
Siyehan had no idea about the meaning of the ring. Could it be… herself and Ji Xiuran from the past?!
This was too melodramatic!
Siyehan had carefully kept the couple’s ring between herself and Ji Xiuran for so many years, treasuring it as a precious item. But if Siyehan found out the truth…
Ye Wanzhan couldn’t help but shiver. Her title as the “Queen of Jealousy in Asia” was not just for show… If Siyehan knew the truth, this ring could bring disaster upon her!
“But wait… Our fearless alliance’s elder said it’s a mother-child ring. The elder is knowledgeable and experienced, considered the most knowledgeable person in the fearless alliance…” Ye Wanzhan murmured to herself.
If she had to choose between the elder and Nie Wuming, Ye Wanzhan would definitely trust the elder… At least the elder was generally reliable.
“Does your elder… have a wife?” Nie Wuming immediately looked at Ye Wanzhan and asked.
Upon hearing Nie Wuming’s question, Ye Wanzhan subconsciously shook her head. She had never heard anything about the elder having a wife.
“You see, that’s exactly it. Our fearless alliance’s elder is famous in the Independent State. No children, no wives, no daughters-in-law. It’s been said that he has never even had a love affair from childhood to old age. You think this kind of person, he may be knowledgeable and experienced, but when it comes to couple’s matters… what does he understand?” Nie Wuming spoke proudly, unable to stop himself.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanzhan fell into deep thought. Her gaze fell on Nie Wuming, and she stared at him for tens of seconds. “Then… do you have a girlfriend?”
Nie Wuming: “…”
“Cough… A girlfriend is something that comes and goes with life… I don’t have one.” Nie Wuming solemnly shook his head.
“But… Although I don’t have one now, I had one before…” Nie Wuming said.
“Oh? Which girl was blind enough?” Ye Wanzhan instantly became curious and ignited her gossip spirit.
Suddenly, without any warning, Nie Wuming fell silent. An expression appeared in his eyes that had never been seen before, conveying a sense of melancholy and indescribable emotions.
Seeing this, Ye Wanzhan furrowed her brows slightly. It seemed like there was a story behind this…
“But that’s all in the past. Who hasn’t been young and reckless before… Who hasn’t experienced romance… Forget about all that. Let me make it clear to you: this definitely isn’t a mother-child ring. If it were a mother-child ring, I would let you trample me to death. This is a Mandarin Duck Ring,” Nie Wuming confidently declared.
Immediately, Nie Wuming asked Ye Wanzhan to take off her own ring and compared the two rings
.
“Look, let’s start with the material. If it were a mother-child ring, the craftsmanship should have come from the same person. It doesn’t make sense for the two rings to have such different workmanship.
Secondly, look at the pattern on the back. Your ring is missing a few patterns, while this ring has a few extra patterns. Overall, it looks like a small sapling, with the sapling representing the male and the flowers representing the female. Lastly, your ring’s size is suitable for a woman to wear, while this one is obviously sized for a man’s finger. Do mother-child rings have separate designs for men and women? That’s just ridiculous,” explained Nie Wuming.
