CHAPTER 868: CHAPTER 357: LOVE FOR HUO CHENGCHENG, EARNING A BILLION! (SUPER CHAPTER)

"You’re not into this... so what do you like to eat?"

"I have everything here. As long as you can name it, I can make it appear right in front of you!"

As Zhang Jingdong spoke, he lightly shook his right hand, and a diamond ring appeared out of thin air in his palm.

Huo Chengcheng’s eyes lit up reflexively, not because of the ring, but because Zhang Jingdong was wearing very simple clothes at the time, without a single pocket; he seemed to have no place to hide the ring.

But she quickly snapped back to her senses, rolled her eyes, and then looked away.

Zhang Jingdong wasn’t bothered at all, and slowly extended his hand towards her: "Do you like this?"

Huo Chengcheng shook her head directly: "Don’t like it!"

Zhang Jingdong didn’t mind her rejection and said: "No worries, keep watching!"

Then he started rubbing the ring on his hand.

At first, Huo Chengcheng deliberately didn’t look at him, but after four or five seconds, she couldn’t help but glance at his palm.

At this moment, she still didn’t understand what he was doing, just saw him rubbing the ring.

After another ten seconds, just when she thought Zhang Jingdong was acting crazy, suddenly a puff of white smoke emerged from his hand, and then she saw the ring in his hand bloom!

Yes, the diamond on the ring he just held turned into a small and very exquisite diamond flower!

Huo Chengcheng instantly forgot about ignoring Zhang Jingdong, gazing in disbelief: "How... how did you do that? This is... this is just magical!"

Zhang Jingdong chuckled carefree: "An old poem says, with perseverance, an iron rod can be ground into a needle, while with my sincerity, even a diamond can bloom!"

He then extended the ring to Huo Chengcheng again: "Do you like it this time?"

Upon hearing this, the warmth in Huo Chengcheng’s eyes instantly dimmed.

"...Don’t like it."

Though she answered the same, Zhang Jingdong sensed a difference between her previous "don’t like" and this one.

The former was genuinely disliking, while the latter had a hint of playfulness.

As an experienced player of love, Zhang Jingdong knew it was the right time for teasing. He quickly shook his right hand again, brushing over the back of her right hand.

Then he smirked: "Classmate Huo Chengcheng, you’re being contradictory! If you don’t like it, then why are you wearing it?"

"What do you mean? How did I..."

Huo Chengcheng was a bit puzzled at first, then instinctively looked at her hands, and immediately saw the ring on her right hand, exclaiming in surprise.

"Oh... this... you... I didn’t mean to..."

As she spoke, she tried to remove the ring from her hand, but found that no matter how she tried, it wouldn’t come off!

"This... what’s going on? I didn’t want it. Quickly, take it off for me!"

Zhang Jingdong spread his hands innocently: "I can’t help with this. This ring is called the Eternal Love Ring; it’s like the Zixia Fairy’s Purple and Blue Treasure Sword."

"Only someone who can be with me forever can wear it, but once it’s on, it can never be taken off, not even by me."

Huo Chengcheng was completely baffled: "What... what are you saying? How is this possible? How could something so bizarre exist in this world?"

Zhang Jingdong responded naturally: "There are many inexplicable phenomena in this world, you know? Take childbirth, for instance; that’s quite curious, isn’t it?"

"A man and a woman do their thing, and after ten months, a baby boy or girl is born, or even twins or multiples. Isn’t that strange enough?"

"And mobile phones! Two people thousands of miles apart can hear each other’s voices. Though there’s scientific reasoning behind it, aren’t the things beyond that scientific reasoning strange enough?"

Huo Chengcheng was momentarily stumped by Zhang Jingdong’s words, because if you think about it, those are pretty inexplicable.

But she quickly came back to herself: "But this is different, alright? This is... it’s like magic, completely devoid of any scientific explanation!"

Zhang Jingdong replied sincerely: "Because this is love; in love, nothing makes sense to begin with!"

Although Zhang Jingdong’s words didn’t resolve the doubts in Huo Chengcheng’s heart, she was inexplicably moved by his comment!

Perhaps it was Zhang Jingdong’s gaze, or maybe it was just the uniqueness of what he said.

So she stopped obsessing over the ring, and instead playfully spat: "Who... who has a romance with you?"

Zhang Jingdong noticed the slight flicker in her eyes just now, so he asked: "If you really have no feelings for me, then why were you willing to do that with me last night?"

"I... I was just keeping my word! Didn’t you say it yourself? If you dare to play, then play to the end!"

Zhang Jingdong suddenly leaned in, gazing closely at Huo Chengcheng: "But why were you willing to play with me?"

"Especially with such a wager, knowing well the consequences of losing, yet you still wanted to play with me. You still dare to say there isn’t a touch of fondness for me?"

"I..."

Huo Chengcheng was at a loss for words because Zhang Jingdong’s words struck straight into her heart.

But she didn’t want to admit it, so she stubbornly replied: "I... I just wanted to! Besides... I didn’t expect to lose when I gambled with you!"

"Besides, your win last night was pure luck, you... Mmm..."

Before she could finish her words, Zhang Jingdong sealed her lips with his.

At first, Huo Chengcheng struggled fiercely but couldn’t break free.

And soon, due to Zhang Jingdong’s impeccable kissing skills, her resistance gradually waned.

Zhang Jingdong kissed her for over ten minutes before slowly releasing her.

But he didn’t move away, still gazing at her charming face from up close, smirking: "Still being stubborn?"
