Power and Wealth
Chapter 771 – Diamond rings worth 200 million
Evening.
The mansion’s living room.
Xie Huilan is indirectly telling Dong Xuebing to take action.
Han Jing gave Xie Huilan a stare.
Xie Jing looks at Dong Xuebing with a smile, and Xie Hao waves his fist to show his support.
The living room is quiet, with only the sounds from the TV.
Dong Xuebing felt uneasy. He doesn’t know Xie Huilan had been waiting for him to propose. He wants to slap himself for being so foolish. Why didn’t he think of this earlier? They might be engaged and set their wedding date, but the guy should propose to the girl first. Her words had placed Dong Xuebing in an embarrassing situation, and everyone was looking at him.
Damn! I will go all out!
It’s just a proposal! I don’t mind embarrassing myself.
Dong Xuebing stood up and kneeled on one knee to propose to Xie Huilan.
But Xie Huilan stopped him. “What are you doing?”
Dong Xuebing blushed. “Didn’t you want me to propose to you?”
Xie Huilan laughed. “You made it sound like I am forcing you to propose. Haha…. You are making me look bad in front of my younger brothers and sister.”
Dong Xuebing wants to bang his head against the wall. “Then what should I do?”
Xie Hao is more anxious than Dong Xuebing. “Sis, stop making things difficult for Brother Dong.”
Xie Jing giggled. “This is not making things difficult for him. Marriage is not a joking matter, and Sis is right. Brother Dong must show his sincerity.”
Xie Ran suddenly remembers something. “The ring!”
“That’s right. You don’t have a proposal ring.” Xie Hao exclaimed.
Dong Xuebing wants to slap himself for forgetting about the ring. How can he propose without a ring?”
The news on TV reported a piece of news that attracted everyone’s attention.
They were talking about rings, and the host reported about a ring.
This is the entertainment news section, and it shows a pair of diamond rings. The diamonds are rare pink diamonds, which are the most expensive diamonds in the world. The diamond on the left is sparkling, and the carat is ridiculously high. The one on the right is much smaller, but the carat is at least ten times more than most diamond rings.
The TV host said. “As mentioned earlier, these two diamond rings are not a set. An anonymous person bought the bigger diamond ring from an oversea auction. The smaller one was bought within our country. These two rings are not a set, but their designs look similar. This pair of pink diamond rings will be auctioned during Jia De Autumn Auctions a few days later. Experts estimate this pair of rings might be the world’s most expensive rings, worth around 200 million RMB. They believe this auction will break many records.”
The footage switched to a few guests.
The host smiled. “I noticed many of our female guests’ eyes have changed. Haha…. It’s the same for me. This pair of rings are beautiful.”
A female guest joked. “If anyone buys this ring for me, I will marry him on the spot!”
“Me too!” Another guest added. “This is the most beautiful ring I have ever seen. I believe no woman can resist it.”
Another person added. “I happened to attend the overseas auction when this ring was sold. I didn’t expect this ring to be brought into our country and will be sold as a set. This will increase the value. Two hundred million is slightly overpriced, but it is reasonable from a collector’s perspective.”
“I wonder who will get the winning bid.”
“I know it won’t be me. It’s 200 million! That is several decades of my salary.”
“Hahaha….”
Xie Jing and the rest saw the pair of pink diamond rings on TV.
Xie Hao grumbled. “200 million?! That’s daylight robbery!”
Dong Xuebing felt the price is ridiculous. Even a billionaire will not spend this amount on a pair of rings.
Han Jing said. “The rings are beautiful, and even an old woman like me is tempted. But the price is ridiculous.”
“That’s right.” Xie Jing giggled. “Even 20,000 RMB for a ring is expensive, let alone 200 million.”
Xie Huilan looks at the close-up of the rings with a smile.
Xie Jing looks at Xie Huilan. “Sis, what do you think?”
“They are beautiful.” Xie Huilan nodded. “Pink diamonds are rare in the first place, and it is rarer to find a pink diamond more than two carats and find another ring to match it.”
Xie Hao shouted. “Hehe…. ask Brother Dong to buy this set of rings for you as proposal rings.”
Dong Xuebing gave Xie Hao a stare. I can’t afford it even if I got to sell myself. He is wealthy but not wealthy enough to buy these two pink diamond rings.
Xie Huilan looked at Dong Xuebing, staring at Xie Hao angrily, and joked. “Sure. Ask your Brother Dong to buy it and propose to me.”
Xie Hao replied. “I was only joking.”
Everyone knows Dong Xuebing is rich and has no problem spending a few million or ten million for a ring. But 200 to 300 million is impossible.
“Then I will reconsider my marriage.” Xie Huilan laughed. “I like this ring.”
Xie Jing interrupts. “Yes. Which girl doesn’t like it?”
Han Jing scolded Xie Huilan jokingly. “Do you think your boyfriend owns a gold mine?”
Xie Huilan saw Dong Xuebing’s troubled expression and patted the back of his hand. “I was only joking with you. Haha…. I am fine with any rings.”
Dong Xuebing felt more uncomfortable after what Huilan said.
Pink diamond….
Pink diamond….
Dong Xuebing calculates his current assets in his mind and realizes that even if he sold the house he bought, he could not raise 200 million. Who knows if the pair of rings will reach 300 million during the auction?
