Inside the display cases, there were dazzlingly shining, jaw-droppingly expensive jewels.
Following the employee’s guidance, the two sat side by side on the waiting room sofa.
Soo sat back against the comfortable sofa.
It was good to rest his legs, tired from standing for a long time.
While waiting for the previous customer’s service to end, the store employee brought two cups of warm coffee.
When the employee left, Soo asked Jiho, “Why did you come here?”
“To buy souvenirs.”
“Souvenirs? Here?”
Soo’s eyes widened in surprise.
Had the meaning of the word “souvenir” changed without him knowing?
What kind of travel souvenir do you buy in such a luxury store?
Thinking that the scale of the souvenir must be different for the son of a wealthy family, Soo shrugged his shoulders.
Jiho sipped the coffee and smiled brightly, “Try the coffee. It’s delicious.”
The taste of the coffee was excellent, matching the sophistication of the luxurious store.
Soo also took a sip of the fragrant coffee.
As he caressed the warm coffee cup with his hand, he asked, “What are you buying?”
“Our couple rings.”
Jiho smiled gently at Soo, whose eyes widened in genuine surprise.
“Why are you so surprised? I was going to buy it alone, thinking you might be like this, but since we’re here, I want to buy something you like. So, don’t say anything and choose what you like.”
At that moment, an employee with a bright smile approached their table, indicating it was their turn.
Leaving some sips of coffee behind, Soo and Jiho stood up and followed the employee inside the store.
While walking, the high-priced watches and jewelry displayed in the store beyond imagination caught Soo’s attention.
Perhaps considering the Asian customer, the employee who took care of the two was also an Asian employee.
The polite and sophisticated manner of the employee, who smiled, greeted, and guided them, made them feel comfortable.
In response to Jiho’s statement that they came to see rings, the employee guided them to choose from various ring designs.
“This is our first trip together. I want it as a commemoration.”
Jiho turned his gaze to the displayed rings with a joyful expression.
Inside the display, there were various styles ranging from simple ones suitable for daily wear to designs with large diamonds dazzlingly embedded.
The overly burdensome price range and designs made it difficult for Soo to speak.
“Soo, choose something you like.”
“What kind of ring is this all of a sudden?”
Without thinking about choosing a ring, Soo asked Jiho.
“We can talk about that later… The manager is waiting.”
With a consistently kind smile, Jiho gestured to the employee standing in front of them.
It seemed that the situation wouldn’t change even if Soo said something right now.
Pushed gently, Soo glanced at the numerous types of rings displayed on the shelves.
Until now, Soo had never bought accessories like necklaces or rings with his money.
The accessories Soo had were all gifts: one ring from his mom, a necklace given by his dad as a birthday present, and a necklace Jiho gave as a gift.
Even the ring his mom bought him was not worn frequently and was carefully stored in a case.
Soo spread both hands, palms up.
“Wear a ring on these hands?”
“…”
Soo just stared blankly and couldn’t easily choose a ring.
It was sudden, and he was a little overwhelmed. Also, he didn’t know what kind of couple ring they should get.
“Why? Can’t you find anything you like?”
Seeing Soo not giving any response, Jiho asked.
“No, it’s not that… They are all so beautiful, so I can’t decide.”
“Then I’ll pick a few, and you can choose from them, okay?”
“Yeah.”
Jiho, who had been browsing through the rings, decisively selected several designs and pointed them out with his fingertips.
The kind manager took out all the rings Jiho had chosen so that Soo could try them on.
Except for the design with densely embedded diamonds, most of the rings Jiho chose had designs that seemed comfortable to wear every day.
“Would you like to choose from these? If you like something else, let me know.”
Jiho happily looked at each ring the manager brought out, personally putting them on Soo’s fingers.
With his long, white fingers, any ring seemed to suit him well.
“They are all pretty.”
Soo looked at the rings on his fingers with a slightly awkward expression.
Sharing the same thing with Jiho gave him a strange feeling.
“Shall I buy them all then?”
Seeing Soo taking a while to decide, Jiho smiled and asked.
The expression on Jiho’s face suggested that he might really buy them all, regardless of the ring’s price.
“It’s fine.”
Soo chuckled and glanced away.
“If you can’t choose because they’re all beautiful…”
“No, we’re choosing now, so just wait a moment.”
Cutting off Jiho’s words, Soo began to seriously contemplate which ring to choose.
Since he wasn’t wearing it alone, it seemed better to choose something that also suited Jiho well.
From a ring with dozens of small diamonds embedded around the circumference to a smooth ring without diamonds, Soo looked at the rings laid out in front of him with a thoughtful gaze.
If you considered beauty, a ring with dozens of sparkling diamonds was overwhelmingly impressive. However, it seemed too expensive and burdensome for daily wear.
“I’ll go with this one.”
“Is that really the prettiest?”
Jiho asked, looking at the ring Soo chose.
When Jiho had admired the ring enough to make his mouth drop while putting each ring on Soo’s finger, the one that caught Soo’s eyes the longest was the simple design he chose just now.
“Yeah, I like this one the best.”
Soo replied with a smile.
Although it lacked sparkling diamonds, the clean design of the white gold matched well with Soo’s neat image.
Looking at the ring Soo chose with a somewhat regretful expression, Jiho slowly nodded.
They had their names engraved inside the rings.
The engraving service that took two weeks in Korea was completed in just 20 minutes here.
When they left the store, identical rings were snugly fitted on each other’s fourth fingers.
Jiho raised his hand, extending his finger.
Soo also placed his hand next to Jiho’s, spreading his fingers wide.
“They are so pretty.”
Jiho hugged Soo’s shoulders with a satisfied expression.
“But, Jiho…”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
