Chapter 837 - Your Ex-Wife? (1/2)

His fingers stopped on her shoulders and wrapped her entire body into his arms as if he wanted to fit her inside his body.

“Ruoxin…” He called her name. In the end, there was only this name that came out of his mouth.

Outside, it was bright, and time passed quickly.

Xia Ruoxin held Chu Lui’s arm and walked into a high-class restaurant. At this time, the lighting landed on them; and everyone’s eyes landed on her neck.

The crystal gem was definitely not a fake, and there was a diamond on her neck with an even bigger one on her ring. She held the man’s arms, and her white legs carried her, letting her shine like a gem in the light.

“Her complexion is so nice.” Someone could not help but exclaim.

“Her outfit looks really good,” another one said. “Oh, and I know that this was just released worldwide and in limited edition. There are only a hundred pieces in the whole world, and one is worth a million dollars. It’s really made with blood, sweat, and tears by the designer; which sucked civilians’ blood.”

“Is that gem a fake?”

“Are you serious? Do you not know who that guy is? He’s Chu Lui. A few days ago, he bought this set of mermaid’s tears during an auction. Isn’t it this? How can such a big, pink diamond be fake?”

“Isn’t he afraid of getting robbed wearing millions on them?” someone said with jealousy.

The others started giggling.

Who would dare to steal Chu Lui’s items? At this time and age, money and status were intertwined. Successful businessmen would definitely have their own connections. Besides, which wealthy person got robbed of their accessories?

Chu Lui pulled the chair and let Xia Ruoxin sit down.

“What do you want to eat?” He passed the menu to Xia Ruoxin. Sometimes, he really felt that time had given this woman different things. Other people got older, but she got prettier and more elegant. However, it was also time that woke up her ugly side.

Xia Ruoxin took the menu and flipped it with her thin fingers. The pigeon-egg big diamond was not as eye-catching as her white fingers. She flipped it page by page. Under her lashes were two darkened eyes. In a moment, there was a butterfly that flew past; but when its wings opened, it fell and was disappointed.

After flipping for some time, she then returned the menu to Chu Lui. Actually, she just wanted to eat a bowl of noodles. However, since they came here, it did not make sense for her to just order a bowl of noodles.

“You order.” She propped up her face and smiled lightly. Under the lighting, her lips were thicker and more beautiful. Chu Lui extended his hand and touched her face.

His fingers felt slightly cold on her skin. Today, he finally understood what ice skin was. He took the menu and ordered a few of her favorite dishes.

A waitress walked over. The whole time, her head was lowered; perhaps she was too busy and felt a bit dizzy.

“Hello, what would you like to have?” She took a deep breath and said in a professional tone.

This voice… Xia Ruoxin turned around and landed her gaze on the waitress. At first, she just thought that their voices sounded alike, but they even looked alike. Was it possible for there to be two identical people in the world?

“Your ex-wife?” she asked Chu Lui mockingly.
