I thought that was the end of it, but who knew that the man was still looking around the display case with his handsome eyes, showing no intention of leaving.

Liu Sisi looked at him with a puzzled expression, frowning. "What's wrong?"

"A ring." Lin Xuedong blurted out without thinking.

"Young Master Lin, would you like to take a look at engagement rings?" the shop manager asked enthusiastically, his gaze lingering between the two of them, seemingly sensing something amiss.

Wow, what an eye-catching piece of news! The young master Lin, who has never been interested in women, has actually been won over by this unknown, ordinary, and simple woman.

"Wedding ring." Lin Xuedong looked up and said to the shop manager in a serious tone. "We want a custom-made one, so please take our measurements first."

"Hehe~, okay, okay. Congratulations! Please wait a moment, I'll go make the arrangements." The shop manager chuckled.

After the store manager left, Lin Xuedong took her hand. His long, slender fingers, with their distinct knuckles, intertwined with hers. "Sisi, do you have any preferences regarding the style of the ring?"

Liu Sisi was still somewhat dazed; she hadn't expected the conversation to drift into the topic of wedding rings.

"I don't really have any ideas, just keep it simple." She said, blushing. She really didn't have any requirements, because she never cared about these things.

She had never had the habit of wearing jewelry, not even a watch, because she found it cumbersome. So, the only thing she wore now was the platinum bracelet on her left wrist, which he always insisted she take off.

"Hehe~, my wife. How fortunate I am to have married such a virtuous and frugal wife like you!" Lin Xuedong said sincerely, then couldn't help but lean over and kiss her cherry lips deeply. He chuckled.

Liu Sisi reached out to block him, giving him a disdainful look. "Hey, don't... there are other people here!"

Just then, the store manager walked in with a jewelry designer. They happened to see the two of them being so affectionate, and both coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Young Master Lin, hello, I am the chief designer here, my surname is Zhu. It's a pleasure to serve you and your wife." The designer, surnamed Zhu, respectfully handed over his business card, not forgetting to offer a few words of flattery.

"Yes, my wife likes simplicity. She has a quiet and elegant personality." Lin Xuedong took the business card, his smile particularly charming. The overflowing happiness he exuded made even the surrounding air seem sweet.

"Yes, Mrs. Lin certainly has that tranquil and secluded air about her. Congratulations to both of you!" This is truly befitting of a designer; his words are concise yet sophisticated. He carefully examined Liu Sisi, sharing her sentiment and offering his praise.

Liu Sisi was so embarrassed by the compliment that she lowered her head slightly, trying to hide her already flushed face. "Thank you~".

The woman's voice was soft and gentle, and her rosy cheeks resembled a shy, budding flower. Lin Xuedong was captivated; her beauty seemed to bloom solely for him, and ripples of emotion immediately stirred within him.

Due to the unsuitable venue, he suppressed the flutter in his heart. Taking a deep breath, he said loudly, "I love my wife very much. From the first moment I saw her eight years ago, I couldn't control my feelings for her and my longing for her. Now, I feel very lucky because she has agreed to be the woman I spend my life with. In the future, we will cherish each other, love each other, embark on a new journey together, and live our own little life. We'll chat about everyday things, the mundane details of life. We'll also have our own children, and we'll spend every day together, protecting our little home."

Lin Xuedong wore a warm smile as he spoke, gazing at Liu Sisi and imagining a happy and fulfilling future together.

His bright, sparkling eyes, like a glittering galaxy, possessed a captivating allure that rendered his woman utterly defenseless, willingly surrendering to the sweet, tender embrace of his affections.

Was she not moved? No, she was deeply touched.

At the same time, she was secretly annoyed at herself for being so weak-willed; how could she have let his few words stir up such emotions within her?

She wasn't used to expressing her love so openly in front of outsiders, and at this moment she was so nervous that she could only hold her breath. She didn't speak, but her pair of watery eyes blinked as she looked at him.

"Hehe~, it seems that your deep affection has moved Mrs. Lin. Congratulations again to the two of you on your perfect match." Their deep gazes at each other and Lin Xuedong's sudden, heartfelt confession surprised both the store manager and the designer.

There are countless philandering sons of wealthy families, but few are truly devoted and even faithful. It's unbelievable that this young master Lin is such a rare gem, a devoted and passionate lover.

Lin Xuedong smiled and looked away. He turned to the designer surnamed Zhu and pursed his thin lips. "So, I would like to trouble Designer Zhu to draft a design plan as soon as possible, based on my wife's personality and preferences, as well as our aspirations for our married life."

"Of course, of course, Mr. Lin, please rest assured. Now, let me first measure your ring sizes." The designer surnamed Zhu bowed slightly, smiling and patiently serving them.

They rummaged around in the jewelry store for nearly half an hour. Later, Lin Xuedong picked out an extra rose gold necklace with a pear-shaped diamond pendant.

This little trinket, worth a million, was supposedly prepared for Lin Lan. Since she was traveling these past two days and didn't have time to prepare it, she asked her older brother to take care of it for her.

Liu Sisi didn't think much of it. After all, Lin Lan was the daughter of the Lin family, so it wasn't surprising that Lin Xuedong would spend millions on his sister. Afterwards, they strolled around the mall for a bit, grabbed a quick bite, and then went home.

Two days later, the Lin family's birthday banquet was eventually taken over by secretary Gao Bing.

The dinner was held in the banquet hall of the Junlan Hotel and was conducted in the style of a Western-style cocktail party.

The banquet primarily invited former employees and business partners of Lin's Construction, directors and shareholders of Lin's, and senior executives. Also present were prominent figures from the political and business circles, as well as close relatives and friends of the Lin family.

As it was a private gathering, Mr. Lin did not invite the media to cover it. However, major media outlets still scrambled to wait outside, setting up both long and short cameras, hoping to capture firsthand news from celebrities.

Throughout the banquet hall, people mingled and chatted under the dazzling lights, creating a joyous and festive atmosphere.

At 65, Lin Zhicheng remains youthful and energetic, dressed in a formal suit as he greets and socializes with the guests.

Wife Xie Xue was also extremely busy; she hadn't been this happy and lively in a long time. Dressed in a gorgeous cheongsam, every gesture she made exuded elegance and grace.

Her figure moved constantly among various charitable organizations and socialites, chatting and drinking freely, displaying the demeanor of a hostess.
