Tyrant, your vest fell off

Chapter 45-

He called Li Qingmei aside, and then spread out the gift in his hand.

"This is for you, open it and have a look!"

"What is it?"

Li Qingmei curiously opened the small brocade box, only to see a purple jade ring with a unique shape appeared in front of her eyes.

The entire body of the ring is carved into the shape of intertwined branches, with several leaves with clear texture interspersed.

"Your Highness, this ring is so beautiful, what pattern is it on?"

"Lian Lizhi!"

Her hand holding the ring trembled slightly, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

Willing to be a lovebird in the sky, and Lian Lizhi in the earth, this is the rhythm of Sikong Que expressing his love to her again in disguise.

"Your Highness, didn't we agree that it will be five years later?"

Lianlizhi is also known as the Acacia Tree, the Couple Tree, and the Life and Death Tree, which is a metaphor for the love of husband and wife.

Legend has it that if two trees rub against each other in windy weather, the bark will be polished off.

When there is no wind, when two branches get close together, they can be closely connected and rub each other's ears and temples.

Until they are completely fused together, like a couple with the same mind, one body, and deep love.

"Ahem, this ring was originally a pair, and this king left one here."

He took out a slightly larger and identical ring from his waist.

"These pair of rings are taken from the same piece of Kunlun purple jade. They are the only ones in the world. They are the relics left by my mother and concubine."

It is a token for my future wife, he added silently in his heart.

"Ah! It's so precious, how dare the servant take it, Your Highness should put it away, your Highness's favorite servant has taken it."

"Take it, my heart will never change. You already know it. I heard that the ring finger is the place that leads directly to the heart, so the blood here is also called heart blood."

"I'll put it on first, and wait until the day you are willing to wear this ring on your ring finger for me!"

Seeing that she still wanted to decline, Sikong Que suddenly grabbed the ring in the brocade box with resentment on his face.

"Don't tell me you hate me so much that you just refuse to accept my gift! If you don't want it, it will be ruined!"

He made a gesture to smash the ring to the ground.

"do not!"

She tightly held his hand holding the ring, fearing that he would really smash the ring into pieces.

"I'll take it, I'll take it, but don't wear it on your hands yet!"

"If you accept it, it's yours, and you can wear it wherever you want."

She took off the thin silver chain hanging around her neck, and carefully put the ring on the necklace.

It was temporarily used as a pendant, and then solemnly stuffed into the inner coat.

Such a precious ring, please don't let this brat really smash it, she can only accept it first and keep it for him temporarily.

If one day he meets a woman he really likes, she will return the ring to him.

As for whether I will willingly wear this ring for him one day?
She really didn't know that what he said was forever, it was too expensive an oath, at least for now, she couldn't hold it and couldn't see it!

The current him may just be grateful for this kind of company, and the misunderstanding has turned into a different kind of affection.

Maybe after five years, he will fully understand the essential difference between gratitude and affection.
