A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 61

"Good afternoon, is madam interested in this diamond ring?"

"Oh madam, you have a discerning eye. This diamond ring is a collaborative work between Shen Jewelry and the world-renowned jewelry brand, Love for Venus. It is a ring that represents true love."

"Its high-class elegance is expressed through the multicolored diamond and golden band."

"Look at this diamond. It looks like the passionate heart of a lover and, at the same time, a drop of tear from a sweetheart. If you are buying it, we can even engrave the name of this gentleman onto the ring."

"In my name, it crowns your finger. A word of promise, a lifetime of union."

When the salesperson saw Qiu Mu-Cheng and her companions approach her booth, she immediately approached them with a smile on her face. And then, she enthusiastically promoted the ring to them.

As she was giving her sales talk, the salesperson kept turning to look at Sun Yu-Hao, as if she was also promoting the ring to him.

After all, based on her experience, the beautifully dressed gentleman was probably the one holding the purse strings.

Perhaps she really liked the ring. Because this was Qiu Mu-Cheng's first time trying on something at the exhibition.

When she wore the sparkling ring on her fair and flawless finger, it was as if the ring was made just for her. For a brief moment, the lights in the hall dimmed in comparison to its brilliance.

"How noble!"

"What elegance!”

"Wow, miss, this ring is made for you."

"You looked so noble and elegant, when you put on the ring."

The salesperson cut loose with a heap of exaggerated praises.

Qiu Mu-Cheng extended her hand to admire the ring, and it was obvious that she liked what she saw.

Ye Fan, who was watching his wife, felt a pang of guilt.

When they had gotten married, they had dispensed with all formalities. And Ye Fan had never bought a ring for Qiu Mu-Cheng.

It was no wonder that Qiu Mu-Cheng had expressed such yearning for the diamond ring. Other women had received diamond rings when they had gotten married. But even though Qiu Mu-Cheng was also a woman, she had not received anything. So how could she not yearn for a ring? How could she not feel disappointed?

"May I know how much does this ring cost?" Qiu Mu-Cheng asked.

The salesperson replied immediately: "Madam, the ring you have chosen is our flagship product. The total sales price is nine hundred and ninety thousand."

Nine hundred and ninety thousand?

When she heard the price, Qiu Mu-Cheng paled noticeably and did not speak again. She simply bowed her head and prepared to remove the ring from her finger.

At first, Qiu Mu-Cheng had decided that, if the ring cost less than a hundred thousand, she would bite the bullet and buy it. Ever since she had gotten married, Qiu Mu-Cheng had always wanted to have a diamond ring of her own. But, even though this ring suited her perfectly, it was just too expensive.

Qiu Mu-Cheng shook her head in disappointment. But before she could take off the ring, two voices rang out at the same time from behind her.

"I am buying it.”

"I am buying it.”

Mm?

The salesperson and Han Fei-Fei were confounded when they heard the two

voices.

They were not surprised that Sun Yu-Hao had said he wanted to buy the ring. But they had not expected the hitherto quiet Ye Fan to say the same thing.

"Ye Fan, don't talk nonsense." Qiu Mu-Cheng turned to her husband and rebuked him.

"Hahaha~"

"You bumpkin! You want to buy it? Do you have the money?"

"You are just a gate-crasher. What? Do you think you can flatter them and persuade them to give you the ring?"

"It's nine hundred and ninety thousand.

You won't get this much money even if you sell yourself."

"Don't show off when you don't have any money. You are just making a fool of yourself." Han Fei-Fei looked mockingly at Ye Fan, as if the latter was an idiot.

Sun Yu-Hao put his hands into his pockets and sneered, as if he was watching a skit. "Ye Fan, a gentleman does not covet. So if you have the money to buy the ring, please go ahead. I will step aside and let you have it."

The salesperson was an astute character and, looking at the situation before her, she instantly understood what was going on.

She deduced that the two men in front of her were fighting over this Miss Qiu.

And, judging by what they had just said, one of the men was a poor bumpkin while the other had both power and wealth.

After assessing the situation, the salesperson started making plans of her own.

"Okay, I will use my card." Ye Fan did not reject Sun Yu-Hao's offer. Since the latter was willing to back off, it did save Ye Fan some trouble.
