Gu Mohan’s magnetic voice resonated through the phone.

At this moment, Tang Mo’er fell onto the floor, hugging both her knees as she collapsed on the soft woolen carpet. The bright lights from outside the window reflected onto her pale face, which was covered in tears. Wiping away her tears, she gave a bitter smile that he couldn’t see. “Mr Gu, where are you now?”

Gu Mohan lowered his voice and said in a gentler tone, “I’m a little busy today. You’d better eat your meals and rest well, okay?”

“Oh, then are you coming home tonight?”

Gu Mohan was silent for a few seconds before answering, “Why? Do you miss me? I need to work overtime tonight. I’ll accompany you tomorrow, hm?”

Oh, I suppose that means you’re not coming home tonight.

Of course. It was Lu Qi’er and his wedding engagement celebration that night. Considering the guest list Qi Xi seemed to be raving about, there must be an exclusive engagement banquet.

With the expected grace of society’s number one socialite, she spoke elegantly with practiced ease towards the affluent guests in the large hall. Lin Ruoxi stood at the back with everyone, congratulating her and giving her their blessings.

At this moment, one of the rich madams said, “Miss Lu, tonight is your engagement with Mr Gu. Why aren’t you wearing the One and Only ring?”

The One and Only ring?

Lu Qi’er stiffened and her smile became frozen.

“Oh that’s right, Miss Lu. Quickly show us the One and Only ring. Back when Madam Xuanji created DHA Diamonds, she designed a lot of classic jewelry. However, for some unknown reason, Madam Xuanji never designed any ring. The only ring she ever designed was this One and Only ring. I heard the meaning behind the ring is truly special. As it’s the only ring of its kind, if is only meant to be given to someone once in their lifetime together, to give to the person they love the most. It’s one of a kind and truly priceless! How special!”

“Miss Lu, Mr Gu would definitely give you the One and Only ring! Won’t you show it to us?” The other rich madams echoed.

Lu Qi’er’s face was stiff and becoming more and more pale. Her ring finger was completely empty as Gu Mohan had not given her any ring.

Pursing her lips, she responded quickly, “It’s only the wedding engagement tonight. The One and Only ring is too precious, Brother Mohan wants to wait until our wedding before he puts the One and Only ring on my finger. He said it will have more meaning on our wedding day.”

“Ah, that’s true. Miss Lu, it looks like you’re going to become Mrs Gu soon. We’ll congratulate you first then.”

Lu Qi’er thanked them graciously. She cast a secret glance towards Gu Mohan. Gu Mohan’s custom-made black suit shone brightly under the crystal chandelier. With one hand in his pocket while the other held a glass of red wine, he looked exceptionally handsome tonight. Several older CEOs surrounded him and talked to him, while he listened to them in a composed and indifferent manner.
