Zhao Qingqing stopped.

"Buying something is buying something, proposing is proposing, don't confuse the two. Do you think you can buy me off with just a tiny ring?"

Zheng Hongjie: "Qingqing, I want to marry you as soon as possible and start a family."

He looked sincere, but Zhao Qingqing didn't buy it.

"Who allowed you to do this? Don't be so smart. A small ring only costs a few dollars. Do you have the nerve to propose with such a cheap thing?"

She had a sneer on her face: "The proposal I envision must be in a grand and solemn occasion. At the very least, you have to rent a yacht and an island and hold a grand ceremony before you can propose to me."

She has always been a woman with high aspirations in life and does not allow herself to be looked down upon.

Zheng Hongjie felt ashamed. Qingqing had always pursued high-profile and exquisiteness, and he had long understood this.

But if it requires spending so much money and going through so much trouble to "propose", he doesn't have the budget for it.

Not to mention proposing, even for a formal wedding, he never thought of spending money on a yacht or an island, as that was too extravagant.

Only rich people would do that.

Zhao Qingqing: "Can you do it? If you can't, don't try to imitate others in proposing! It's embarrassing."

Zheng Hongjie: "Love, this thing is just a formality. What's important is the feelings between us two."

Zhao Qingqing: "Don't use feelings as an excuse. In today's society, everyone is so busy. Where the money is, there is the feelings! If you are not willing to spend money on me, it means that I am not in your heart."

"Who said I don't have you in my heart? Don't you know how I feel about you?"

Zheng Hongjie gritted his teeth and said, "...but you know that my ability is limited now, and I can't give you a proposal on a yacht island for the time being, but you can pick a few more pieces of jewelry today, and I will do whatever you want."

Although he said this, Zheng Hongjie was actually worried about his wallet. Zhao Qingqing had always been good at spending money and would spend it without blinking an eye when she saw something she liked.

He lost a lot of money in the divorce, and originally wanted to spend the rest carefully, but Zhao Qingqing showed her intention to break up, so he had to bear the heartache and use money to keep her.

Zhao Qingqing: "Really? Can I buy whatever I want today? Whatever jewelry I want?"

"Yes." Zheng Hongjie gritted his teeth.

As long as we don't break up and as long as she can marry me as soon as possible, the money I spend today will be considered an investment.

Zhao Qingqing is well versed in human nature. She knew from his expression that he was reluctant to leave. "I'm afraid your heart is bleeding right now!"

Zheng Hongjie: "No, I'm willing to buy you anything."

Zhao Qingqing: "Then don't buy it. Transfer all your money to me and write a voluntary gift in the note!"

Zheng Hongjie: “…”

Zhao Qingqing: "Why? Don't want to?"

Zheng Hongjie: "Qingqing, let's not make such jokes."

Zhao Qingqing: "I'm not kidding, giving money is giving love." Zheng Hongjie smiled reluctantly. He transferred all the money to her and even had to mark it as "voluntary gift"?

This is so stupid!

Even though he truly liked Zhao Qingqing, he couldn't give all his money to her.

The atmosphere was tense when Zheng Hongjie suddenly heard someone calling his name from behind.

"Hongjie, Hongjie?"

Zheng Hongjie thought it was an illusion, but when he turned around, he saw two familiar people standing at the entrance of the building.

It was none other than Zheng's mother and Zheng Huihui.

He was a little surprised. How could it be such a coincidence? Today, my mother and sister also came to this mall to shop.

If you don’t know, you might think I had an appointment with him.

Zhao Qingqing also turned her head and looked in the direction Zheng Hongjie was looking.

They saw an elderly woman with wrinkles around her eyes and a sly smile on her face like a fox, greeting them.

Zheng Hongjie showed the photo to Zhao Qingqing, who recognized at first glance that this was Zheng Hongjie's mother.

Standing behind Zheng's mother was a girl who was dressed fashionably and looked proud. She must be his sister Zheng Huihui.

Zhao Qingqing couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Zheng Hongjie, did you guys make this appointment?!"

Zheng Hongjie quickly explained: "No, no, no! It was a complete coincidence! I didn't expect my mom and sister to be here."

Zhao Qingqing sneered, she didn't believe it was such a coincidence.

Zheng Hongjie took her hand and wanted to go to say hello to her mother, but Zhao Qingqing didn't move and coldly shook his hand away.

Mother Zheng seemed to notice that the atmosphere here was not right, so she took the initiative to walk forward with a smile on her face.

"Oh, you must be Qingqing! Hongjie showed me your photo. You are so beautiful!"

Zhao Qingqing said nothing.

Zheng Hongjie took the initiative to ease the atmosphere: "Yes, yes, Mom, this is Qingqing. I was just planning to arrange a time for you two to meet, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence today."

Zheng Hongjie pointed at his sister behind his mother and said, "Qingqing, this is my sister. You can just call her Huihui."

Zhao Qingqing said "hmm" coldly.

What she hates most is chatting with irrelevant people while shopping, which wastes energy.

What's more, Zheng Huihui on the opposite side looked annoying.

Zheng Huihui greeted her perfunctorily: "Sister Qingqing!"

Her eyes were all fixed on the high-end jewelry on Zhao Qingqing's neck and wrists, and she felt secretly indignant in her heart: This is all spent on my brother's money!
