The husband I got is actually the heir to a wealthy family

Mu Ningxi stared at Huo Beichen in confusion and slowly opened the box in her hand.

Wow, how come it’s another big deal?

Looking at the pigeon egg-sized diamond ring in her hand, Mu Ningxi felt that her breathing was becoming difficult.

"Mr. Huo, what does this mean?" Mu Ningxi asked, raising the diamond ring in her hand.

Huo Beichen's reaction to Mu Ningxi calling him like that changed from discomfort to acceptance.

It was he who said that their relationship should not be exposed. Even if Huo Beichen was dissatisfied with the name Mu Ningxi, he could not express it publicly.

Wouldn't that prove that Huo Beichen is a person who goes back on his words?

Suppressing his emotions, Huo Beichen smiled and said, "I've been married to you for so long, but I never prepared a wedding ring for you. A few days ago, I saw this beautiful ring at an auction, so I bought it and gave it to you. I hope you like it."

Huo Beichen bought such a big ring as casually as buying cabbage. He is indeed worthy of being the top boss in Beijing. His strength is extraordinary.

Hearing Huo Beichen say it so lightly, Mu Ningxi couldn't help but think to herself.

"Mr. Huo, you mean, this is my wedding ring, but aren't all wedding rings a pair? Where's yours?" Looking at Huo Beichen's smiling face, Mu Ningxi joked mischievously.

As a jewelry designer, Mu Ningxi certainly knew that a designer would not design a pair of rings of this style.

"I haven't considered this point. How about this? I'll have someone send a few pairs of rings to Liyuan tomorrow. You can take your time to choose and pick one as our wedding ring."

Mu Ningxi's casual joke made Huo Beichen take it very seriously.

Looking at the other person's serious face, Mu Ningxi quickly refused: "No, I was just joking with you. In our situation, there is no need to wear a wedding ring."

"Which of our situations?" Huo Beichen was very unhappy with Mu Ningxi's reason for refusal.

"We are in a contractual marriage, which is fake to begin with. Why do we need to do something hypocritical? Not only do we not need a wedding ring, I don't even want the ring on my hand."

Mu Ningxi responded to Huo Beichen in the same serious tone.

"Why?" Huo Beichen continued to ask.

"This ring is too valuable. I won't accept it without merit. You've given me so many jewels before, and Zhao Yu also sent some jewels. If I accept this ring, I will be very nervous."

Mu Ningxi couldn't accept Huo Beichen's behavior of giving her jewelry at every turn.

The two of them were just getting together and might separate someday. Mu Ningxi didn't have the habit of keeping things for others.

"You are my wife, and it is only natural for me to give you a gift. Why should you be afraid?" Huo Beichen couldn't understand Mu Ningxi's thinking.

"As for what Zhao Jun sent, it's a gift from him to congratulate us on our wedding. You can just accept it and don't think too much about it." Huo Beichen added.

Don’t other women all wish their lovers would give them gifts? The more expensive the gifts, the more they love her. Why does Mu Ningxi react like this when it’s her turn?

I really don't understand what she is thinking.

Ever since he could remember, Huo Beichen often saw his father giving his mother various gifts, and among these gifts, the most common were all kinds of jewelry.

Every time my mother sees those jewels, she looks very happy.

This made Huo Beichen feel that women all like jewelry.

Huo Beichen's sister and Cheng Jingjing further deepened Huo Beichen's understanding.

This led to the fact that whenever Huo Beichen was preparing to give a gift to a girl, the first thing he considered was jewelry.

This was the case with Zhang Mengmeng before and Lian Yiyi later.

When the two received the jewels, they showed the same happiness as Huo's mother. Only Mu Ningxi seemed to avoid these jewels and hoped that Huo Beichen would not give them to her.

Now, she says she was terrified to receive the gift from him, which is really intriguing.

"I don't want to be the custodian of these jewels." Mu Ningxi expressed her true thoughts.

"Custodian, what do you mean?" Huo Beichen didn't understand what Mu Ningxi meant at all.

"It means that if you give them to me now, I must keep them carefully so that I can return them intact when we part ways."

Mu Ningxi explained patiently.

"Mu Ningxi, are you so eager to divorce me?" As soon as Mu Ningxi finished speaking, Huo Beichen immediately raised his voice.

"It's not that I want to divorce you, but we are really not from the same world. We will separate sooner or later." Mu Ningxi has a clear view of this relationship.

Therefore, she didn't want to get involved. After experiencing Meng Tianbo, Mu Ningxi didn't want to be hurt again.

Without sacrifice, there would be no harm.

"I've said before that as long as you're willing, we can be together for the rest of our lives." Huo Beichen felt a little troubled by Mu Ningxi's stubbornness.

Although there is no love, Huo Beichen believes that he can still live with respect for the rest of his life.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi didn't say anything, Huo Beichen continued, "I admit that I can't give you the love you want at the moment, but as Mrs. Huo, I will not give you any less of the rights you should have."

"I am confident that I can make you happier than other women."

Happiness, can a marriage without love really be happy?

Mu Ningxi couldn't imagine it.

"I know that you've been through some things before that made you wary of others. I can understand that, but I hope you can let go of the past and think carefully about our future."

Mu Ningxi remained silent, and Huo Beichen continued.

"The future, will we really have a future?" Looking at Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi's eyes were full of confusion.
