A ring on one's ring finger usually implied engagement or marriage.
Linda stared at the dragon ring on her finger with mixed emotions.
"Charles Mu, what in God's name have I done to you to deserve this? Isn't it the situation where a girl receives at least a diamond ring before they tied the knot? And look at what I've got!"
Linda couldn't even could not bear to look at the ugly black dragon ring.
Charles Mu frowned and tried to suppress the bursting urge to laugh out.
"It can save your life when things happen. Just wear it for now. Whatever those girls have, you shall have it. As for those they don't even stand a chance, they will be yours as well."
Linda bit her rosy lips while looking at the ring on her finger. Since Charles Mu had put his foot down, Linda could only swallow her grumble with an unwilling nod,"Alright then! For good or ill, it's my very first time to walk down the aisle, even it's with you. I should warn you that I will tolerate no unfair treatment."
Charles Mu felt totally speechless at the moment.
"Whatever you say. It's about time to get going. After all, I owe you quite a show, My Lady." A wicked smirk crept up on Charles Mu's face.
Linda didn't even bother to ask him about the show, for she knew Charles Mu wouldn't reveal a single clue anyway.
Linda stood up from the couch with 4 inches crystal high heels on her feet.
She was still a bit tottering walking in heels that high.
The previous drama on the highway had honed Linda's skill at high heels.
And it was all Charles's doing, Linda Xia so was irritated by the thought that the only thing she could think of for the moment was a really hard bite on Charles Mu.
Linda was tripped up by her dress after a few steps toward the door.
She lost her balance and was about to fall to the ground.
Charles Mu immediately swooped in and held her firmly by her waist.
What with the burning chest against her body, the zoomed-up handsome face and the wafting male hormone, Linda Xia felt her blood rushing into her face...
At the moment Linda could tell clearly what he was longing for from his eyes.
Linda looked away awkwardly,"Thank you!"
Charles Mu helped Linda Xia stand up straight again and let go of her. He then gestured Linda to take his arm.
Linda dithered over whether to take his hand or not.
Given her present situation with high heels, it seemed she could really use Charles Mu's help to make things easier for herself.
Therefore she held his arm.
Charles Mu shook his head with a doting frown,"Well, normally I would run at the first sight of trouble. How on earth did I end up with such a clumsy fiancee as you?"
Linda's heart was racing so fast over his words that she failed to manage any reply other than docilely holding Charles Mu's arm all the way to the car.
Following behind, Bun and Paul was whispering to each other.
"I'd say our Young Master and My Lady are quite a perfect match!"
"So do I. I've never seen Young Master fell this head over heels for any woman before."
Linda Xia felt weird when they got in the car. Though it was still the same Mercedes S600.
