Gao Qingming took a deep breath, unsure of how to respond.

Jin Nian was stating a fact, and he couldn’t deny it.

“Alright, I won’t dwell on these sentimental words too much. Goodbye,” Jin Nian said.

With that, Jin Nian turned and headed in the direction of the office.

Although they couldn’t be considered close friends, they were, after all, colleagues. In life, one meets and interacts with many people, and each relationship is a matter of fate.

Gao Qingming opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to Jin Nian, but seeing her walking away, he chose to leave with his belongings.

He had only taken a few steps when Gao Qingming suddenly turned around and called out to Jin Nian.

“What?” Jin Nian turned around, looking perplexed.

Gao Qingming reached into his pocket and placed something in Jin Nian’s hand.

It turned out to be a ring.

This was the ring Jin Nian had lost earlier.

Jin Nian was both surprised and delighted. She held the ring and questioned him, “So it was you who took it!”

“I just picked it up from the sink. Why do you sound like I stole it?” Gao Qingming replied.

“You knew it was mine, so why didn’t you return it?” Jin Nian asked.

“I was planning to return it, but…” Gao Qingming hesitated. “After 1 found out you’re CEO Lu’s wife, 1 didn’t feel like giving it back.”

Jin Nian couldn’t comprehend Gao Qingming’s reasoning. “Then 1 take back the wishes 1 just gave you! Goodbye, and I hope we never meet again!”

Gao Qingming felt that he had behaved unfairly, and he felt somewhat embarrassed. “Alright, alright, I know you think I’m not straightforward. I’m not a good person to begin with. Here, I’m returning this to you. We’re even.”

Jin Nian fell silent for a moment.

“But seriously, Lu An couldn’t buy you a ten-carat diamond ring? Is he being too stingy?” Gao Qingming teased, raising an eyebrow at Jin Nian.

This time, he didn’t have any malicious intent. He was simply trying to amuse her.

But Jin Nian believed him.

Wearing the ring, she rushed to Lu An’s office and exclaimed loudly, “Lu An, you have to buy me a ten-carat diamond ring!”

“Are you sure you want ten carats?” Lu An asked with a smile.

“Yes!” Jin Nian replied firmly.

Lu An casually took out his phone and showed Jin Nian a diamond design sketch. “But I also ordered a fifty-two-carat Star of Africa. What about that one? Throw it?”

Lu An had been planning to give Jin Nian another diamond ring, and losing this one had provided him with the perfect opportunity.

“Fifty-two carats!” Jin Nian was astonished. “How big is that?”

Lu An used his hand to demonstrate the size. “It’s roughly the size of a pigeon egg. Not very large.”

“Not very large??” Jin Nian was amazed.

It seemed that she didn’t have a comprehensive understanding of wealthy people.

Although New Year’s Day had passed a month ago, for Jin Nian, the new year officially began on New Year’s Eve. In her childhood memories, running around at midnight on Lunar New Year’s Eve marked the beginning of the new year.

Coincidentally, the first day of the new year was Lu An’s birthday.

There was a saying in Binhai City that children who spoke on the first day of the new year were destined for wealth and prosperity in life. This saying was also prevalent in Hong Kong. Essentially, it suggested that children born on the first day of the Lunar New Year would enjoy both fame and fortune in their future.

The fortune teller had once predicted for Lu An, stating that there would be difficulties in his love life. If he could overcome these challenges, he would enjoy happiness and success in the future. If he stumbled at this hurdle, he would never find happiness in his lifetime.

Initially, Lu An didn’t believe in fate, let alone the words of a fortune teller. He was a person who followed his path and didn’t think that such words could influence his life.

However, after a few setbacks, he came to understand that fate was indeed somewhat mysterious and had to be taken seriously.

Now, it seemed that he had successfully crossed that hurdle.

In the new year, Lu An would turn twenty-eight and approach his thirties.

Jin Nian wanted to give Lu An a birthday gift, especially since it was their first year of marriage, so not giving a gift was out of the question.

However, this issue had plagued her for countless days and nights. She didn’t know what to give Lu An.

It was quite challenging, considering that Lu An, who had grown up with a rich family background, lacked nothing in terms of material possessions. What could she give him to truly surprise him?

Upon careful consideration, she realized that she had given Lu An numerous gifts over the years, but all of them were rather inexpensive and not worth mentioning..
