While Ye Zhi stood there stunned, Gu Ren had already turned around and looked at the clerk. He casually opened his mouth and spoke fluent French.
“Please can you take out the diamond ring, we would like to have a closer look at it.”
As always, his voice had a very pleasant, slow and elegant tone to it.
Ye Zhi was completely surprised. She never knew that Gu Ren could speak French and was so fluent on top of that. How many other things were still there about him, that she didn’t know?

Ye Zhi lowered her head and looked at the diamond ring which she had been eying moments ago. She couldn’t help saying: “How did you know…”
How did you know that I liked this ring?
Gu Ren refused to answer and motioned her towards it. Ye Zhi turned her head to look. The shop assistant put on a pair of white gloves and carefully picked up the diamond ring out of the display case.
The shop assistant introduced in French: “This diamond ring belongs to the Joséphine Coronation·Love series…”
Every time the shop assistant spoke, Gu Ren would translate for Ye Zhi. She slowly learned that it was the most expensive diamond ring in the series. Also that there were only a few of such rings in the world and they were priced generally in the tens of millions of euros.
The store assistant continued: “Just to inform you, sir, this is an engagement ring.”
Engagement ring? When Gu Ren heard this, his eyes darkened. He murmured repeatedly: “Engagement ring?”
People who had really strong feelings for each other and loved each other would choose such a diamond ring as their engagement ring.
Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi with a muddy look in his eyes.
Ye Zhi waited for a long time, but Gu Ren did not translate for her this time. Ye Zhi could not understand what the assistant said, but she noticed that Gu Ren repeated one of the syllables.
Ye Zhi felt that Gu Ren’s reaction was a little strange. She was very curious. She couldn’t help but get closer to Gu Ren’s ear and ask softly, “Gu Ren, what did she just say?”
Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi. Her skin was glowing like a pearl under the light.
Gu Ren’s black eyes stared at Ye Zhi for a moment. Before he leaned down slightly and approached Ye Zhi. He spoke slowly and clearly: “She’s saying…”
Ye Zhi listened intently, but her heartbeat quickly speeded up a bit uncontrollably.historical
Gu Ren and Ye Zhi were very close. He uttered a few words very lightly and softly, which fell into Ye Zhi’s ear clearly: “You are very beautiful.”

The assistant motioned Ye Zhi to extend her hand.
Ye Zhi stretched out her hand. The store assistant carefully slid the diamond ring on to her slender finger. The diamond ring gently wrapped around Ye Zhi’s finger. It was neither too big nor too small, the size was just perfect.
It seemed to be tailor-made for her.
Ye Zhi raised her hand and looked at the diamond ring in the light. Looking up like this, the diamond ring looked even more beautiful.
Gu Ren saw that Ye Zhi really liked the ring and the corners of his lips curled upward. Even his eyes seemed to be smiling. The moment he looked at Ye Zhi, he said in a pleasant tone.
The most beautiful and pleasing words in the world fell into Ye Zhi’s ears.
“Ye Zhi, it’s yours now.”
Ye Zhi’s heart trembled and she looked into Gu Ren’s eyes as if she was under a spell.
