Chapter: 4986

Su Ruo Li poked out his tongue and teased, "Mom, in front of you, I'll always be a little girl."

He Yingxiao stroked Su Ruo Li's face, sighing: "I never thought that my Ruo Li would become a five-star warrior, and you've had such good luck, Mom. This is the happiest thing that has happened to me in my lifetime!"

Su Ruo Li lifted her arm, gently touching her mother's hand, her eyes welling up with tears, saying firmly: "Mom, there's even happier news to come. I've been making a wish every year since I was five years old, and it's about to come true soon!"

As a child, Su Ruo Li had been most fond of her mother's severed right arm.

So, from the time she could understand, every birthday she would quietly make the same wish: that her mother could regain her original condition and become a normal person.

Although she knew this wish was impossible to fulfill, she still repeated it year after year.

It was also since she was five years old that whenever her mother asked what she wished for, she would just laugh and say two words: "Top secret".

So when He Yingxiao suddenly heard her daughter had been making the same wish for over ten years, she was astonished and asked: "Ruo Li, what's this wish that lets you keep making it every year?"

Su Ruo Li smiled mysteriously, leading her mother to the bathtub, urging: "Mom, get in the tub first. All your questions will be answered soon!"

He Yingxiao didn't know why her daughter wanted to get her into the bathtub, but seeing her daughter's expectant expression, she didn't ask any further.

After getting her neck and body below the waterline, Su Ruo Li took out the Transmutation Pill given by Leaf Chief and instructed: "Mom, after you take this pill, you'll fall asleep, but don't worry, I'll be right here beside you!"

As she spoke, she put the Transmutation Pill into He Yingxiao's mouth.

He Yingxiao smiled at her daughter, but before she could say anything, she felt a sense of blankness in her brain and lost consciousness altogether.

Su Ruo Li saw her mother had lost consciousness and stood still by the bathtub, waiting for the miracle to happen.

At the same time, Chen Zekai brought Su Shoudao to Cartier's store, where they found a high-end diamond ring worth $1.3 million.

This was already the best one available in this store, but to Su Shoudao, there was still some small-town flair about it.

He couldn't help but ask the young female salesclerk: "Is that all there is? Are there any larger ones with higher purity?"

The Chinese-American salesclerk looked nervous and said: "Sir...this is already the best one in our store. Besides, this ring doesn't usually stay here; according to company regulations, it's on a tour of multiple stores in New York. If you had come yesterday, I'm sure we would have still been setting up the display for this ring..."

Su Shoudao looked at the already quite large diamond ring with a face full of disdain and said: "But this one is also not big enough, and the color is not rare enough...I'm planning to propose, but this is a bit hard to take..."

The salesclerk's eyes widened in astonishment, and she couldn't help but ask, "Sir...don't you know what kind of diamond ring would be sufficient for you?"

Su Shoudao thought for a moment and said casually, "How about some rare blue diamonds or pink diamonds? The price should be at least over half a million dollars. At least it won't be a waste..."

The salesclerk was no longer sure if Su Shoudao was speaking seriously or just joking, but her professional demeanor still compelled her to patiently explain, "I'm sorry, sir. The kind of diamond rings you mentioned are usually not sold here; most of them are custom-made for VIP customers or even auctioned off."

Next to him, Chen Zekai wasn't surprised by Su Shoudao's words, as he was initially the young master of the Su family, and a diamond ring worth hundreds of thousands would definitely be beyond his reach.

However, Chen Zekai also knew that they didn't have time to be too picky; therefore, he quietly reminded Su Shoudao, "Sir, we're short on time and the store's conditions are limited. If you want to find a ring that fully satisfies you tonight, it might already be impossible. Why don't we just buy this one and then hurry off to get dressed? Don't waste any more time."

Su Shoudao let out a sigh and nodded his head, saying, "Okay, then I'll take this one." JrNovels.com
