Chapter 70: Buying a Ring

having people look into Xia Tian’s background. Unfortunately, there was still no news by now."Brother Ma!" A man in his forties appeared at the door."Old Seventh, you're here! Come in quickly!" Mǎ Xi...Chapter 70 Buying a Ring

Summer didn't go after Shu Jing either. He held Sun Xinxin's hand and said, "Sis Xinxin, shall we leave"

Chen Zhijiang was still dumbfounded on the field, seemingly unable to accept this reality. Summer couldn't be bothered with him.

Sun Xinxin looked at Chen Zhijiang with a hint of sympathy but didn't say anything. Today's performance from Chen Zhijiang had slightly disappointed her. Or perhaps the Chen Zhijiang she knew was becoming increasingly hard to recognize.

"Summer, could you give me your phone number" Jiang Feng chased after him.

"Sure." Summer readily agreed.

It was not yet eleven o'clock when he checked the time. Summer then suggested, "Sis Xinxin, do you still want to buy a phone Why don't we go and buy one first."

"Okay." Sun Xinxin consented.

The sports college was not far from the pedestrian street, so they went there again. It was still that same mobile phone store as yesterday.

Sun Xinxin wasn't a wealthy person; she had saved up some money, but most of it was extorted by Zhang Dazhu earlier. Moreover, Sun Xinxin herself did not spend lavishly. Therefore, in the end, she only spent over one thousand yuan to buy a Samsung phone. Today, without Chen Zhijiang's disturbance, buying the mobile phone went smoothly; they finished it within half an hour.

Perhaps because her shopping yesterday was interrupted, Sun Xinxin wanted to make up for lost time today. After purchasing the phone, she dragged Summer to continue shopping. What made Summer feel a little regretful was that Sun Xinxin no longer changed clothes for him today. Her goal was shoes and handbags, but she still showed interest in browsing without buying anything all along.

"Let's eat something first, and then we can continue shopping!" When it was past noon, Sun Xinxin finally felt her stomach protesting.

The two of them went to the food court again. However, instead of going for Brazilian barbecue, they ate two servings of fast food on the second floor. Sun Xinxin was eager to go shopping and didn't have the mood to slowly eat; she just wanted to replenish her energy so that she could continue shopping.

Summer received a call at this time from Huang Haitao.

"Doctor Summer, it's me, Huang Haitao!" Huang Haitao sounded very respectful over the phone. "I've already brought the money for you, but you're not at the flower shop. May I ask who I should give the money to"

Ever since he confirmed that his son's cerebral hematoma had been eliminated, Huang Haitao immediately prepared the money for Summer. Although one million yuan was no small amount to Huang Haitao, he could still manage to come up with it.

Today, seeing that his son's behavior and speech were completely normal, Huang Haitao was even happier. The slight reservations he had towards Summer had basically vanished at this point. In fact, over the past few months, to treat his son's illness, he had spent a lot of money but saw no effect whatsoever. Now spending one million yuan for his son to fully recover seemed worth it.

Huang Haitao did not intend to dodge the payment and didn't dare to do so either. Therefore, he prepared cash in the morning and delivered it to Xinxin's Flower Shop at noon. However, the shop was only attended by Fang Xiaoru at that time; Huang Haitao naturally dared not give such a large sum of money directly to a girl, hence he called Summer.

"I'm accompanying my wife on shopping on the pedestrian street now. Why don't you bring the money here" Summer casually said.

"Alright, I'll send it over right away." Huang Haitao didn't hesitate and hung up before driving towards the direction of the pedestrian street.

After hanging up, Summer was a little excited because he finally had some small savings.

"Xinjie [Sis Xinxin], I'll treat you to dinner today." Summer went over to pay proactively. From then on, Sun Xinxin remembered that the first meal Summer treated her to was fast food worth ten yuan per serving.

After finishing the meal, Sun Xinxin still dragged Xia Tian to go shopping. The reason she was dragging him along was because of his air conditioning effect; although it wasn’t as hot these days, at noon, the sun could still be unbearable. However, with Xia Tian acting like a portable air conditioner, Sun Xinxin was completely unaffected.

When they passed by Zhou Xiaosheng's jewelry store, Sun Xinxin hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't go in.

"Sis Xin, why not go inside" Xia Tian was somewhat puzzled. Wasn’t it said that women liked diamonds and jewels

“The items inside are quite expensive; I can’t afford most of them. It’s better to stay outside,” Sun Xinxin explained softly.

Hearing her words, Xia Tian pulled her into the store: "It doesn't matter, Sis Xin. If you see something you like, I'll buy it for you."

"You don't have any money!" Sun Xinxin gave Xia Tian a look of disdain; didn’t others know that she did This guy had less than 100 yuan on him.

Sun Xinxin was unaware that Xia Tian would soon be getting one million yuan.

“I have money!” Xia Tian pulled Sun Xinxin to the engagement ring section, "Sis Xin, I’ll buy you a ring!"

The beautiful saleswoman in the jewelry store greeted Xia Tian with great enthusiasm: "Sir, are you looking for a ring for your girlfriend"

"That's right." Xia Tian nodded and pointed at one that was very eye-catching. "Get me that one."

“Sir, what a keen eye! This is our best diamond engagement ring in the store; it has a carat diamond of high quality…” The saleswoman quickly rattled off her pitch as though reciting a script, and at last, she looked enviously at Sun Xinxin. "Miss, would you like to try this on With your beauty, only such a ring could match you."

Sun Xinxin didn't say a word. There aren't many women who don't like engagement rings, and Sun Xinxin isn't an exception either. When she saw the ring, she liked it at first sight, but she also knew that there was no way she could afford such a luxurious item.

"Let's try it on then!" Xia Tian suddenly spoke up.

"Certainly, sir!" The saleswoman was very happy. Although she could tell from her expertise that Xia Tian wasn't wearing anything valuable, nowadays many wealthy people prefer to keep a low profile, so she didn’t dare to assume he was poor just because of his appearance. She thought that if someone had such an attractive girlfriend, there's a high chance this man is wealthy.

Just as the saleswoman was about to take out the one-carat diamond ring, an abrupt voice cut in: "I'll take this ring!"

Xia Tian immediately became annoyed. Who was making trouble for him

Turning around and seeing who it was made him even more displeased. It was that filthy woman again!

The saying goes, 'Enemies meet when they least expect it.' Just a few hours had passed since their last encounter, and Xia Tian met this woman—known as Yu Yan for having slept with the entire basketball team—who was causing trouble once more.

"Do you know what ‘first come, first served’ means I saw this ring first," Xia Tian glared at Yu Yan.

"Did you pay for it" Yu Yan sneered. "If you haven't paid, then the ring isn’t yours; anyone can buy it!"

"Xia Tian, forget about it. We can't afford such an expensive ring anyway," Sun Xinxin tugged at Xia Tian's arm and whispered.

Even though Sun Xinxin spoke softly, her voice was still heard by Yu Yan, who immediately felt smug and smirked sarcastically: "So you can’t afford it after all. I knew it; looking at the ragged clothes you two are wearing, how could you possibly buy a ring worth tens of thousands If you don't have money, then stop pretending to be rich!

"Who said I can't afford it" Summer looked at the salesperson and asked, "How much is this"

"Sixty-eight thousand." The salesperson replied. She was just selling rings and didn’t want to get involved in such disputes. Although she doubted that Summer had money, she didn’t say anything spiteful. After all, she was just an employee and didn’t have the right to look down on others, did she

"Only sixty-eight thousand!" Summer pouted and said, "Give it to me first so I can try it on. If it fits, I'll buy it."

"Sure, sir." The salesperson was about to hand the ring to Summer when she added, "If it doesn’t fit, we can adjust its size for free."

"Wait!" A hand reached out and stopped the salesperson. It was Yu Yan who looked at Summer with disdain: "If you pay right away, I won't argue with you. Otherwise, this ring is mine!"

Yu Yan took out a credit card and handed it to the salesperson: "I can make payment now!"

"Are you asking for a beating" Summer glared at Yu Yan, feeling extremely irritated. He just wanted to buy a ring for Xinxin; why would this woman deliberately cause trouble

Of course, he didn’t know that Yu Yan originally had no intention of buying the ring but was intentionally causing trouble because she saw him wanting to purchase it. Who could blame her after what happened in the morning

"What Do you want to hit me if I can't pay" Yu Yan sneered, "Are you planning to rob someone"

Before Summer could respond, Yu Yan shouted, "Help! Someone’s trying to rob!"

"Snap!" Summer slapped her and then snatched the ring from her hands. He handed it over to Xinxin and asked, “Xinxin, does it fit”

"You bastard, you actually dared to hit me" Yu Yan touched her fiery cheeks, finding it hard to believe and getting so angry that she nearly went mad. She took out her phone, dialed a number, and shouted into the receiver, "Where in hell are you I'm being bullied right now! Hurry up and come to Zhou Xiaosheng's jewelry store!"

The two security guards rushed over nervously at this moment: "Who is robbing"

"It's him!" Yu Yan pointed at Xia Tian, exclaiming, "Look, he even snatched the ring!"

The two security guards looked at Xia Tian with some confusion. Was there such a way to rob someone He wasn't carrying any knives and hadn’t threatened anyone.

"Sir, may I ask..." One of the security guards tried to speak up.

"I came here to buy a ring. If I really wanted to rob, do you think you could stop me" Xia Tian said with bad grace before deciding not to pay them any mind and simply holding Sun Xinxin's hand, "Ms. Xinxin, let’s try it on."

Sun Xinxin took the ring but felt uneasy: "Xia Tian, do you really intend..."

Glancing at the people around them, Sun Xinxin didn’t finish her sentence because she was genuinely worried that Xia Tian might be planning to rob.

"Ms. Xinxin, I really have money now; someone is bringing it over," Xia Tian said just as his phone rang, and it was Huang Haitao calling back; he had already reached the pedestrian street.

“I’m at Zhou Xiaosheng’s jewelry store. Hurry up and come.” Xia Tian instructed before hanging up the call and turning to Sun Xinxin: "Ms. Xinxin, the money has arrived. What do you think of this ring"

Seeing how sure he was, Sun Xinxin didn’t say anything more but slipped the ring onto her index finger, finding it just right; she nodded and said, “I like it.” he was, showing that Summer actually had a compassionate side."Yes, I want to lose weight now." Su Xiaocan's voice sounded a little strange, "Can I come over to you now""Sure, come on over. I'm at 13...
