Chapter Twenty-Two: The Ring

  Fifteen minutes later, when Chen Shao and Xiao Xian were strolling on the bustling street, he suddenly thought of the scene when he had just finished writing the song for Lee Hyori, and couldn't help but feel proud.

  Chen Shao plagiarized the song "Ten Minutes" in five minutes and gave it to Lee Hyori; when Lee Hyori took a look at the song, she immediately packed up her things and left, saying she had to go back and prepare for her album, without even caring about the people in the private room.

  Liu Zai Shi and the others also knew about Lee Hyori's current situation, but they didn't say anything and instead helped her get through Chen Shao. In the end, everyone exchanged contact information, and this gathering came to an end.

  "Oppa, where are we going to play?" Xian's question brought Chen Shao back from his thoughts.

  "I don't know either? I just got back to the country and don't know what's fun around here; why don't we just wander around randomly; anyway, we don't know where to go, let's just walk around and see where's fun and play there later, what do you think? And isn't my birthday with Yoon-ah coming up soon? Let's take a stroll together and prepare gifts for her in advance." Chen Shao thought for a moment, suddenly realizing he didn't know where to go because he wasn't familiar with Seoul after just returning to the country, so he could only suggest wandering around randomly.

  After some thought, she said "Well, that's it then; let's go for a walk around, and oppa, I'll tell you something, I've never gone shopping with a boy before, not even my dad, you're the first one, aren't you happy?" Xiao Xian suddenly said to Chen Shao, her tone sounding somewhat playful.

  "Hehe, of course I'm happy, my Xian'er is so good, and she even reserved this first time for oppa, oppa feels very honored, from now on I can also show off to uncle, haha" Chen Shao looked at Xiao Xian tonight and felt that she was different from before, not as rigid as before, but more open-minded, and couldn't help but want to tease her;

  "Oppa, don't talk so weirdly, okay? I'm being serious. And you should feel honored, it's only right. " Xian pouted at Chen Shao, wrinkling her little nose in a cute scolding tone; If Taeyeon and the others saw Xian like this now, who knows if their jaws would drop off or not

  "Haha, that's my little Xian at his best" Seeing Xian being so adorable, Chen Shao was also delighted "Xian, we've been together for so long, but oppa hasn't given you a gift yet. Let's go take a look and see if there's something good, I'll buy one to give to you"

  "Or oppa, let's buy some couple stuff, like couple outfits, couple shoes, couple pajamas. Oh, how about we buy a couple ring? I used to envy people wearing couple rings when I watched TV; what do you think, oppa?" Xiaoxian looked at Chen Shao with expectant eyes.

  "Okay, listen to you, now oppa will temporarily give you the couple ring I bought outside. Originally, I was going to give it to you next month, but since you want it now, I'll go take a look and buy one if I like it." Looking at Xiao Xian's expectant gaze, Chen Shao couldn't bear to refuse and had no choice but to agree; originally, Chen Shao had planned to give the ring to her on Xiao Xian's birthday next month, and it was already being made, just not ready yet. Moreover, Chen Shao basically wouldn't reject Xiao Xian's requests; in the five years they were apart, Chen Shao owed her too much.

  "Great, let's go quickly, it's just ahead, let's go take a look." Xiaoxian didn't hear the rest of the sentence at all, she only knew that Chen Shao had agreed to buy her a couple's ring, and as for the rest of the sentence, she completely ignored it.

  Looking at the happy Xiao Xian, Chen Shao's mood was even more indescribable; smiling and jokingly said "Hmm, let's hurry up then; this is also oppa's first time going out with a girl since coming back; not even my mom and sister have done that, Xiao Xian can brag to my mom about it later"

  "Oppa... are you teasing me?" Upon hearing her boyfriend's joke, she naturally didn't like it; and counterattacked saying "Oppa, if you tease me again, I'll tell Auntie when I get back!"

  "Hehe, oppa knows he was wrong, Xian'er don't tell mom, okay? Or else oppa's ears will hurt for a few more days. Doesn't that make you feel sorry for me?" Although he put on a pitiful face, Xiao Xian was actually teasing himself; after hearing Chen Shao's second half of the sentence, he thought for a moment and then said "Yeah, if we tell Auntie, oppa will definitely get his ears pinched. That would make Xiao Xian feel heartache; but it's okay, oppa has thick skin and won't take long to recover, I'm not worried at all."

  "Ah, Xian'er..." Chen Shao didn't expect his girlfriend to say something like this, which was enough to show that she was really happy now, and the word "happy" was no longer sufficient to describe Xiao Xian's current mood;

  Seeing her boyfriend's helpless expression, Xiaoxian felt a sense of accomplishment "See, oppa has nothing to say after I scolded him, hehe"

  Looking at his smiling girlfriend, Chen Shao could say nothing but let her have her way; after all, women were meant to be spoiled. "Xian'er, go take a look up ahead and see if there's anything that suits me."

  "Alright, let's go!"

  The two of them strolled around Hongdae for over two hours, but in the end, they still couldn't find a couple ring that suited their taste. Xiaoxian also looked disappointed, and Chen Shao gazed at her current expression, seemingly thinking of something, but not quite certain yet.

  Xiaoxian is now in a bad mood, she thought she could buy the couple ring she liked; but after walking around for so long, all the shops selling rings have been visited and there's no one she likes. Now her heart feels lost, just lowering her head and continuing to walk, suddenly seeing a fist appearing in front of her eyes, her footsteps also stopped, raising her head to see her boyfriend smiling at her, and even using his eyes to hint that she should open her hand to look.

  Opening her eyes, she saw a pink heart-shaped diamond ring lying in the palm of her hand. Xiaoxian had no reason to suspect that it was fake; she wasn't wondering if the ring was real or not, but rather thinking, "Is oppa thinking of proposing to me?" She's still young and hasn't come of age yet, so should she agree or not?

  At this moment, the ring on Chen Shao's hand was bought at an auction in China two years ago. At that time, when he saw the ring, he just thought of whether Xiaoxian would like it and bid for it; after bidding, due to some reasons, he couldn't return to Korea at that time, so he put the ring into his spatial ring. Until just now, seeing Xiaoxian's dejected look, he suddenly remembered this ring that was bought with 3 million RMB (don't mock, it's just to show off the protagonist's awesomeness).

  He is also very nervous now, he's afraid that Xiao Xian won't like it; if so, Xiao Xian will be even more disappointed. So from the moment he took out the ring, the mind-reading technique was like throwing money at Xiao Xian, wanting to know if he would like it? Only he himself didn't think that Xiao Xian had never said he didn't like anything he gave him.

  When Chen Shao found out that Xiao Xian thought the diamond ring was an engagement ring for proposing to her, she couldn't help but burst out laughing "Haha, what are you thinking? You've been hesitating for so long, if you don't like me just throw it away" and pretended to throw it away.

  "That's all, I just thought this was the ring that oppa used to propose to me, who said no?" Seeing Chen Shao's action, Xiao Xian immediately stopped him and took over the pink diamond ring on his hand, looking at it while saying.

  "What, Xian'er wants to enter the Chen family so easily? If that's really the case, I'll propose to you right now!" Looking at Xiaoxian admiring the ring on her palm, with a face full of fondness, he said to her;

  "Not yet, we're still too young now, only when we grow up; Ah, oppa hurry and put it on me"

  "Hmm, I think so too, anyway you can't escape"

  "So, oppa, don't leave Xian'er behind again. Xian'er has been waiting for you for five years already. If you leave Xian'er behind again, maybe Xian'er really won't want oppa anymore."

  "Uh, I won't leave; oppa is making a vow to heaven in front of you now, if I ever leave Xian'er again, then let me eat apples and get two worms, and only eat the noodles without drinking the soup." Hearing Chen Shao make this vow with a serious tone, Xiao Xian couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said "oppa..."
