Chapter 289 - Seeing but Not Owning (2)
“And when I recall that I’m about to be a father, I can’t resist but want to give everything to my child, but I don’t see how terrible the lives of other children are. Rather than wearing a useless big ring, why not let us donate this money to the children in orphanages to make their lives better?”
After Gu Chenyi had said that, he looked at Lin Qingya again and asked, “Qingya, do you agree?”
Lin Qingya was speechless.
What the hell was wrong with this damned Gu Chenyi?!
Was he crazy? Donating the money that was meant for buying the ring to the orphanage — why didn’t he donate all of the Gu family’s wealth to the orphanage instead?!
In contrast to her speechlessness, her heart was in tears.
On the other hand, Mrs. Gu looked really glad. “My son has really grown up!”
He knows how to give back to society now.
Then, she happily held Lin Qingya’s hands and said, “Qingya, this is all to your credit. Your kindness and excellence have made Chenyi sensible!”
Lin Qingya: “...”
“Alright, let’s not buy the big diamond ring. Instead, we will donate the money to the children and hope that they will be able to live lives that are safe and happy like the children from our family!” It was rare that her son was so sensible and kind. Thus, she should support him as his mother!
Lin Qingya: “...!!!”
Were both of them fools?! Were they fools?!
They didn’t want to enjoy their own money. Instead, they wanted to donate it!
As she had portrayed herself as a kind and loving person, no matter how sad she was inside, she could only lift her head up and laugh gently. “The children would definitely be delighted!”
When Mrs. Gu witnessed her reply, she began to like her even more. She stuck her hand out and touched her head, saying, “Such a kind and good child.”
Gu Chenyi looked at Lin Qingya and curved his lips into a smile.
Although he smiled really brightly and charmingly, for some reason, Lin Qingya couldn’t help but feel cold and shivered at his smile!
At first, she’d thought that after a while, Gu Chenyi would return to normal. However, he was beginning to scare her even more!
But he didn’t do anything. He was happily preparing their engagement party and the wedding matters.
She didn’t understand. She was increasingly unable to get what Gu Chenyi was thinking about!
In the past, he was a ray of simple sunshine and someone who was easy to see through. But now, why did it turn out like this?
After the manager brought the platinum rings over, Gu Chenyi chose a design that was the most normal with no diamonds at all. He looked at Lin Qingya and said, “Qingya, do you think this is the most simple, gracious, and nice? The most suitable for both of us?”
Lin Qingya: “...”
A big diamond ring that cost hundreds of thousands had turned into a normal platinum ring that cost only about ten thousand and he’s asking her if it’s nice!
What could she say?
She could only laugh and say, “Yes, it’s nice.”

Gu Chenyi instantly smiled really happily. “I knew it. I knew that you would like this type of ring!”
Lin Qingya was speechless.
When Mrs. Gu saw that, she was really glad that her son was caring more for his wife.
Just when the manager at the counter was putting away the other diamond rings in disappointment.
Gu Chenyi spoke. “Mom, your taste is good. Can you help me choose some jewelry for Auntie? I had a fight with her before and I want to buy some things for her as an apology.”
“You fought with your aunt?” Mrs. Gu asked in surprise.
“Uh-huh.”
“No wonder your uncle looked so unhappy the last time we ate together.” Mrs. Gu recalled the time they last met for dinner.
“It’s all my fault.”
“You should make it up well to her, then!” As Mrs. Gu said that, she asked the manager to bring the best pieces of jewelry over.
