Chapter 149 Buy a Ring
Aldric's expression was very uncertain now, finding it very difficult to talk to this woman.
The romantic relationship between a man and an adult woman was indeed very different. With how innocent he was in this matter, he naturally felt very heavy.
Fortunately, he was eating so he could distract himself by continuing to eat.
Occasionally, he looked at the view of the river ahead where there were sometimes freighters passing by.
"Baby..." Once again, Jenny called out to him when he didn't respond about the plan to have many children.
Called out, he naturally looked up at her, finding her smiling faintly but deeply.
"Why are you so shy to me? After all, we have known each other for a long time and now I am your woman where you can do whatever you want," she said right after she looked at him.
His hands trembled at that to the point where his breathing became very fast.
"Hehehe..." The woman laughed.
"You should stop flirting with me for a while, until at least after we get married," Aldric replied.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Ohhh, looks like you feel helpless..." The woman only laughed at him more.
Aldric had stopped staring at her, he drank mineral water from the large bottle without holding back.
In a short time, almost half a liter of water entered his mouth so he finally felt full.
Jenny who ate slower naturally took longer and she didn't seem to be planning on stopping. She continued to eat her porridge including the side dishes.
Whether it was because she was in a good mood or because she was hungry, Aldric didn't know. He waited for her to finish eating while thinking what kind of ring he would buy for her.
Of course, it would be a gold ring but how would it be designed? Which shop would he buy it from?
He was still not sure, but at least for the price, he had no worries now.
To his utter surprise, Jenny completely finished her porridge.
She looked so full that breathing seemed to have become difficult for her.
"Why are you eating so much?" Aldric said.
Didn't a woman like her usually eat less to maintain her weight.
"After all, this is the first time you've paid for a meal for me, I naturally need to finish it," she replied with a smile that never disappeared.
"Thank you, dear... This porridge is very delicious," she added.
Aldric, "..."
Not long after, they left the small beach, traveling through London.
Shops other than restaurants started to open where the employees didn't seem excited to work because of the holiday but the bosses were filled with excitement because of the large number of visitors, especially foreign tourists.
Aldric saw a row of luxury shops on an elite street where each shop sold jewelry whether it was gold, silver, diamonds, and many more.
Every customer was clearly elite, and there were quite a few young couples around his age.
"Mm..." Aldric was interested in one shop because it had a name.
The Moon Ring Shop!
The shop used the word ring, which meant their focus was on selling the rings themselves.
Aldric immediately decided to buy a ring at that shop.
He stopped the car in front of it then looked at Jenny first.
"Wait here," he said.
"Do you know the size of my ring finger?" she asked with a faint smile as he asked her to wait instead of asking her to accompany him.
After all, she could have covered her face.
However, he asked her to wait in the car so that he could choose more calmly.
To be sure, he wanted to decide what her ring should look like. It should be according to his own taste.
His eyes glanced at the ring finger on her left hand which had no ring on it until now.
"I can guess," he replied.
After that, he stepped out of the car. When it came to physical form, he always had a good memory.
Entering the ring shop, he found a spacious room with golden-colored marble floors, giving the impression of radiating light.
It was a very luxurious place with display tables arranged neatly in front of the wall, about a meter apart and the store employees standing behind the display tables, giving a friendly welcome to every guest who came in.
All the display tables contained rings, silver and gold of which some were sparkling diamond rings.
Aldric was somewhat mesmerized, thinking about the sight of untold treasures.
Who knew how much all this jewelry was worth. He rather suspected that the value of everything was up to £100 million.
The number of employees alone was more than 30 people. About 20 of them helped direct confused visitors where to choose the ring they wanted to buy as each display table seemed to contain a different type of ring.
Aldric himself was approached by one of the employees who was a young man with a strong-looking body but neat appearance. Perhaps he was still a student, working part-time in this shop.
"Sir, what kind of ring would you like to buy?" the young man asked Aldric.
He was a little surprised when he saw his physique which seemed to be much more solid than his.
When asked about what ring he wanted to buy, Aldric found it a little difficult to answer.
"Yeahhhh..." He seemed to be thinking while looking around.
"Mm, I think I want to go there," he said, without explaining anything to the man.
His eyes fell on a display table guarded by a beautiful young woman wearing a blue shirt with a bow tie where her hair was a blonde color similar to Jenny's and was neatly put in a bun.
Of course, she was not as beautiful as Jenny. Their classes were different and her height was far below hers.
The display table she was guarding caught his attention because the rings inside were mostly gold in color with slight silver stripes, perhaps a mixture of gold and silver.
There were even many rings with a layer of small diamonds on them.
Hearing that he wanted to go there, the man immediately invited him to go there.
He then took a step.
"Welcome, sir... Please take a look and choose the ring you want. If it is for your beloved, we will give you a 5% discount!"
The woman behind the display table made a greeting to Aldric, which surprised him a little because she was talking about a discount if he was buying a ring for his girlfriend.
