Chapter 71: Devoured to the Last Scrap

xi!Lu Ningxi was just about to dodge when there was a "ding dong" sound. The elevator arrived on the first floor at this time, and a young man in a well-tailored suit walked out of it, followed by two...Li Bochen's mouth twitched slightly. Two hundred million things turned into trash imitations when they reached her.

Well, she couldn't know who I really was if I didn't tell her.

Seeing that he remained silent, Luo Ningxi's heart gradually grew uneasy. She tentatively asked, "Didn't it cost a few thousand Or... ten thousand"

Li Bochen calmly uttered, "One thousand yuan."

“Sure enough, it’s over a thousand yuan. I’m not saying this to criticize you, but you just bought me a piece of clothing yesterday. Although it wasn’t expensive, you’re so poor now and without a job. You should really be more frugal with your spending! Otherwise, when your debtors from home come looking for you, you won't even be able to afford the interest…” Luo Ningxi earnestly advised.

Li Bochen's face remained impassive, his heart beating without a flicker. "Yesterday your sister said we got married and didn't even give you a decent wedding ring. After thinking about it, I do think I was wrong."

Lo Ningxi was startled.

She thought Li Botong had fallen back into his old habit of spending money, but she didn't expect it was because of Luo Zhiqin's humiliation.

He didn't want to be looked down upon by Luo Zhiqin.

A warmth arose in my heart.

"I know you're doing this for my own good, but the Ocean Heart is too ostentatious. Wearing this fake will only make people laugh at me more." Luo Ningxi said earnestly.

Although she wasn't a high-society socialite, she did have some friends who were from wealthy families.

Those who come and go from the circle always know about the Heart of the Ocean.

Li Bochen frowned upon hearing this.

This Ocean Heart is indeed a bit ostentatious for her now.

But for him, it was nothing.

"Then I'll buy you a more understated one another day."

"Don't buy it." Luo Ningxi hurriedly stopped her, "Forget it, I'll find a chain to string this together as a necklace. Most people wouldn't recognize it, so just muddling through is enough. You don't have to spend money on me..."

To be honest, Loningxi was still very touched.

As the saying goes, a man's love for you can be judged by how much he's willing to spend on you.

Although Li Bochen loves to spend money, it's just his personality. But deep down, he does mean well.

Li Bochen looked at her calculating and meticulous appearance, his heart itching. He readily agreed, "Alright, it just so happens that my salary for this month is almost spent. Even if I buy something else, I probably won't be able to afford anything good."

Luningxi glared at him, “You…when will you ever be serious about saving money Living paycheck to paycheck, how long will it take you to pay off all that debt”

After dinner, Luo Ningxi went to her room and took out a silver chain from the dressing table. She strung the Heart of the Ocean onto it and then wore it around her neck.

Li Bochen was putting away the dishes when he heard footsteps behind him.

"How do you like it Does it look nice"

Li Bochen turned his head to look. Luo Ningxi was wearing a light-colored shirt, with several buttons undone, outlining her graceful swan neck. A blue diamond necklace on her neck shimmered brilliantly. The V-neck shape, along with her creamy skin, complemented each other perfectly...

Li Bohen's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, igniting a spark of flame.

“Beautiful,” he said in a raspy voice. “More beautiful than I imagined.”

He doesn't know much about jewelry or diamonds.

The reason for filming "Ocean's Heart" is simply because a treasure of this caliber deserves to be showcased by Luo Ningxi.

But unexpectedly, she not wearing it on her ring finger, hanging it around her neck instead, actually had more charm.

The collarbones lined up, delicate and small, with beautiful lines.

The blue diamond swayed gently with her movements, as if imbued with life...

Luning Xi bumped into his dark eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

Li Boche's deep eyes were like a whirlpool, threatening to pull her in and consume her.

She shifted uncomfortably and took a step back.

"You... you wash the dishes first, I'm busy."

After speaking, she quickly stepped out of the kitchen, her lips pressed tightly together.

Until I entered my own bedroom and closed the door, my heart was still racing.

I was so excited just now that I forgot myself and ran to him to share my joy.

But she forgot, Li Botong no matter how he restrained himself or listened, he was still a man, still a seasoned veteran of the world.

If I don't know my place and act recklessly, I'll sooner or later be consumed by him, leaving nothing behind.t.Luo Ningxi nodded slightly, then hailed a cab straight to the Luo Group.Li Boche watched her walk away before following Luna upstairs. He had just come over to say hello today.Two people entered the...
