Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 1038

Chapter 1038: 250: Rather starve to death

Zuo Ling chuckled and said, "Guess."

"What is it, really?" Shangguan Xi was very curious.

Could it be that Zuo Ling had bought her a ring?

Zuo Ling took out the box he had prepared earlier.

Seeing what was inside the box, Shangguan Xi was stunned for a moment, "Bird’s nest?"

Zuo Ling nodded, "Yes, it’s bird’s nest. Bird’s nest is a great thing, especially good for girls. Not only does it have beautifying effects, but it also nourishes yin and tonifies the lungs! I was actually thinking of buying you a ring, but then I thought, a ring is just for show and not really practical. It’d be better to improve your health, so I used the money for the ring to ask a friend to buy it from abroad."

Zuo Ling’s skill at deceit was profound; he could lie without batting an eyelid, making it seem as if the bird’s nest really was something he had asked someone to buy abroad.

He seemed to have completely forgotten who the real owner of this bird’s nest was.

"Really?" Shangguan Xi was taken aback for a moment, not knowing quite how to feel.

Last night, she hadn’t slept at all because of the ring, and now it turned out that things weren’t at all what she had imagined!

So Zuo Ling had her best interests at heart!

She had misunderstood Zuo Ling.

For a moment, the look Shangguan Xi gave Zuo Ling was filled with guilt.

She felt she really owed Zuo Ling an apology.

Zuo Ling was so good to her, yet she had doubted him.

Zuo Ling smiled and said, "I specially bought it for you, how could it be fake?"

"Thank you, Zuo Ling." Shangguan Xi’s eyes reddened slightly as she embraced Zuo Ling.

"Silly girl, there’s no need to be polite with me." Zuo Ling felt very pleased with himself.

Over at the Zuo Family, Zuo’s mother was chatting with the neighbors about Zuo Ling’s marriage proposal.

"Your Ling Ling must have spent quite a bit of money on the proposal, right? When my son proposed, he spent over two hundred yuan on a ring, and that doesn’t even include the bride price!"

Upon this topic, Zuo’s mother’s face beamed with pride, "Not at all, our Ling Ling didn’t spend a penny!"

"Really?" Everyone expressed their doubts.
