The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

“What are we doing here?”

Lian Qingxue looked at the jewelry in the store, feeling anxious. What did Qi Yun want to buy now?

“I want to buy you a gift!”

“A gift?” Lian Qingxue widened her eyes.

“Didn’t you buy me clothes?”

“That doesn’t count as a gift. Buying your clothes is expected. A gift should have a certain meaning, like a necklace or a ring. Those have significance.”

“I don’t need it! They’re too expensive.”

Lian Qingxue glanced at the prices of the jewelry, and even the cheapest ones were one or two thousand yuan.

Casual pieces were five or six thousand yuan, and many even cost tens of thousands.

“Qingxue, think about it. When you gave me a phone last time, did I refuse?”

“But…”

“You spent five thousand yuan on the phone, which is a lot for you. Why did I accept it?”

Looking at the speechless Lian Qingxue, Qi Yun said softly, “Because it was your intention, Qingxue. I can’t refuse it. Do you understand? I hope you won’t refuse my intentions either.”

Lian Qingxue opened her mouth, finally saying nothing.

Seeing her obediently listening, Qi Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. It’s so difficult to spend money on Lian Qingxue!

……

Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue were looking around the store, and the couple over there hadn’t left yet.

The girl still seemed reluctant to give up her beloved ring, and the guy looked hesitant.

Meanwhile, another salesperson approached Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue.

“What can I help you with?”

“Qingxue, what do you want?” Qi Yun turned to ask Lian Qingxue.

“A ring…,” Lian Qingxue blushed.

“I want a ring, one for each of us.”

Seeing Lian Qingxue, Qi Yun knew exactly what she was thinking.

Which girl hasn’t fantasized about the moment when her beloved guy puts a ring on her finger? Even Lian Qingxue was no different.

“A ring? Are you two planning to get married?” The salesperson asked with a smile.

“Ahem.”

Looking at Lian Qingxue blushing, Qi Yun spoke up, “I would love to, but the law prevents me! Don’t you know how anxious I am?”

Neither of them had reached the legal age.

Lian Qingxue chuckled.

“Then it’s a couple ring. There are many options, some with relatively low prices, and some more expensive. Do you have a budget?”

“No budget! Just see what she likes!” Qi Yun said boldly.

Then he felt the guy over there giving him a resentful look.

……

The guy was now very frustrated. He had almost convinced his girlfriend to settle for a cheaper pair of rings. But then Qi Yun spoke up, and his girlfriend refused.

“Just look at them!” She said, feeling wronged.

Meanwhile, Qi Yun continued speaking, “Qingxue, jewelry can hold its value. After you buy it, it might even appreciate. Don’t worry about the price!” The girl nodded eagerly.

The guy: ……

Brother, could you just act normal?

He coughed.

“Ahem, I think rings are not something to eat or wear. It’s unnecessary to spend so much money!”

Hearing the guy’s words, Lian Qingxue agreed, “Yes, we buy rings as a gesture of love. They don’t need to be too expensive.”

Qi Yun: ……

Brother, just be quiet! He exchanged a glance with the guy.

Both of them found each other incredibly annoying.

The guy glanced at Lian Qingxue, admiring her beauty and thoughtfulness towards her boyfriend. It was truly touching!

While he was secretly envious of Qi Yun, Qi Yun quietly approached him and whispered, “Brother, I have something to ask. How did you manage to persuade your girlfriend to be willing to spend money? I envy you so much!”

Qi Yun’s face was filled with genuine sincerity.

“???”

The guy looked utterly bewildered and didn’t want to engage with Qi Yun.

“Although my girlfriend is perfect in every way, there’s just one problem. She’s too frugal! She’s always trying to save money for me!” Qi Yun continued to complain.

The guy: “Waiter! Pack up the ring I just looked at! The one that costs forty thousand! No negotiation, no receipt! Hurry up! I need to leave!”

He couldn’t bear it anymore!

He’d rather spend forty thousand than stay here any longer!

If he stayed, Qi Yun would drive him crazy…

Were you even speaking human language?

Qi Yun watched the angry guy leave. He felt a little aggrieved.

I genuinely wanted to seek advice!

……

The ring that Lian Qingxue picked wasn’t expensive either. A pair of couple rings amounted to just over ten thousand.

Initially, she had already set her eyes on these rings. But considering the price, she wanted to see if there were cheaper options.

However, Qi Yun saw her preference and directly told the salesperson to sell them the pair.

Lian Qingxue didn’t have a chance to refuse. So when Qi Yun paid, Lian Qingxue felt a bit resentful. She felt like they had spent too much money. But as soon as they left the store, Lian Qingxue took out the box containing the rings.

Blushing, she took out the male ring.

She pulled Qi Yun’s hand and slipped the ring onto his finger.

Then Lian Qingxue fell silent.

She tilted her head, her eyes shining, as if waiting for something. Qi Yun looked at her expectant face and also took out the women’s ring, taking Lian Qingxue’s little hand.

“Today, let’s consider it a rehearsal. In the future, I’ll give you the biggest diamond ring in the world.”

Lian Qingxue shook her head. “I don’t want the biggest one. Actually, I’m willing even without a ring.”

Qi Yun gently patted Lian Qingxue’s head. To be honest, her frugal nature both made him love and hate it.

Throughout the journey, Lian Qingxue appeared especially happy.

As they walked, she hummed softly.

Every now and then, she would raise her hand with the ring, looking silly and smiling. No one knew what she was smiling about. Qi Yun saw this and couldn’t help but smile too.

……

After indulging with Lian Qingxue for two days, Qi Yun realized that getting her to spend more money was almost an impossible task.

No matter how Qi Yun tried to persuade her, the two of them only spent less than twenty thousand yuan in these two days.

If Qi Yun hadn’t bought the pair of rings, they wouldn’t have spent even ten thousand yuan.

The rebate Qi Yun received was only around a hundred thousand yuan. Because of this, Lian Qingxue even said she wouldn’t go out shopping with him anymore.

Helpless, Qi Yun had to put aside his small goal and start seriously working with Lian Qingxue on selecting a new location for their store.
