4693 Never Too Late to Love (100)

"No, I think this design looks good on me."

Actually, it was not because Bai Sheng couldn't bear to part with the money. Rather, she felt that one didn't need an expensive diamond ring to validate their love and marriage. The ring was just a token. There was no need to put the cart before the horse.

Only then did the store manager understand her intention.

Bai Sheng had already repeatedly emphasized that she really liked this diamond ring and did not care about its value. Hence, she carefully took it out for her.

Bai Sheng put it on.

She had rather slender fingers. Although her index finger was a little calloused because she studied design, her ring finger was straight. Hence, when she put on the ring, it was just right. It was even a little big, but it would not fall off.

Gu Chengze looked at it and muttered, "Isn't it too big?"

"No, it won't fall off."

The store manager continued, "If you feel that the ring sizes here are too small, these can be adjusted. Since you're married, it's better to leave some space. During pregnancy, it's common to suffer a little edema. Many of our customers will buy a diamond ring that fits perfectly and when they fall pregnant, the ring gets stuck on their fingers. They have to spend a lot of effort to take it off. Therefore, we usually suggest a looser fit. As long as it doesn't fall off."

Gu Chengze felt that it made sense.

Bai Sheng liked the ring it very much.

"What about the man's ring?"

The store manager also took out the man's ring, which fitted Gu Chengze nicely when he put it on.

The two of them placed their hands side-by-side. His hands were huge. They were one size larger than hers and good for embracing her. Placed next to each other, both their hands were slender, fair and looked better than those belonging to hand models.

"It's too beautiful…"

Even though the rings were clearly not the most beautifully-designed among the others, they looked so good on their hands. Most importantly, they were of good quality.

"How about these ones then?"

Bai Sheng turned towards Gu Chengze. They exchanged a glance and smiled tacitly.

"Alright."

After paying the bill, they put on their rings right away.

Since it was a wedding ring, Bai Sheng had no intention of taking it off again. She did not love jewelry, but this ring held a special meaning for her.

The two of them left arm in arm.

On the way home, as Gu Chengze was driving, Bai Sheng kept looking at her hand. Occasionally, she would raise her hand and spread her fingers out, making various poses.

By this time, it was almost sunset. Under the mellow light, the diamond ring on her finger sparkled brilliantly.

"So beautiful!"

When Gu Chengze heard this, he smiled. "Is the ring beautiful?"

"Uh huh, but my hand is more beautiful. Any ring looks good on my hand."

"…" Gu Chengze was greatly amused.

He could not help extending his hand and placing it on the back of hers. Bai Sheng intertwined her fingers with his and at this moment, her heart seemed to be full.

"How wonderful." Gu Chengze said suddenly.

"What's wonderful?"

"It feels wonderful to have a home." Gu Chengze said sincerely, "In the past, I didn't have any special feelings about marriage. But now, I feel that marriage isn't just a gorgeous and solemn ceremony. It's a sense of belonging."

"Why are you suddenly so emotional?"

"Because…" Gu Chengze replied, "I grew up watching my parents showing off their love and affections for each other, and I've always hoped to be like them."
