“It’s not me who is shifting the topic, rather, is it not you who thinks that I found out the secret of some ring and became the world’s richest man? Good, I will ask you then – when did you lose the ring?” I asked.

“February of this year, it was stolen by someone!” Steven said.

“Since that happened, you thought that I found the secret of the ring? Good, I indeed just established Shuguang International, but, I had established Shuguang Corporation and East Asia Motion years ago. You think that I had already found the secret of the ring at that time?” I asked.

“Ah……” Steven was suddenly enlightened, understanding that his thinking had been wrong from the beginning. He was only thinking of the recently established Shuguang International, he had not thought of those ones!

Only now did I finally figure out the reason why Stephen was spending so much just to get this ring! But what annoys me is that the Feiyan Antique Collection House sold me stolen stuff! I also understood now why that boss was so eager to sell this ring! This matter is certainly not finished yet, the moment I have free time, I am going to find him and deal with him.

“Well, Mr. Steven, no matter what the secrets of the ring are, I am not going to sell it! Although from a certain perspective, it could be said that the ring was lost and you are the original owner, you still can’t deny that the ring had been plundered from China in the past!” I looked at Steven and said in a serious tone, “Therefore, there’s no need for you to urge me to give the ring to you! Moreover, I hope that you do not try to use any tricks against me as my temper isn’t very good. Though the matter is being resolved peacefully now, I can’t guarantee the same will happen in the future! I am not afraid to let you know, but Jake, the owner of this company is soon going to join his company with my mercenary group in Africa!”

Steven was stunned. He had no choice but to ask Jake about this matter, however, now that he heard about my actual strength and influence, he didn’t dare act rashly again!

“You are right, Mr. Liu! The ring is from China, so I have no reason to take it for myself!” Steven nodded and said, “After studying it for 30 years, I have no choice anymore. It seems that I don’t have the fate! I had no results even after researching it so much, might as well let nature take its course.”

“Hehe, what you said is the truth. I too had not thought that this ring would be so special!” I smiled.

“Since I have already said so much, I will let you know everything I know already. I will explain to you what is written about this book in the history books!” Steven said, “The history books record that there was a sheepskin together with this ring. What’s written on it though is unknown as that wasn’t mentioned in the history books. But I am sure it must be very important! Otherwise, there would be no way history books would write about it! This is what the records about this ring show. I have also checked other records and history books and there is no mention of these two things, therefore I am one of the few who knows about these. As for the sheepskin, it might possibly be the operating instructions for the ring, or maybe, a map! All of these are my guesses and there is no concrete evidence. I don’t know. Maybe, it’s just me overthinking everything, maybe it was just some birthday gift and a note!”

“Good, I still must thank you as you have solved a lot of my doubts!” I said as I nodded in a friendly manner.

“I also know that people of your status have nothing much that they care about! Especially in our capitalist western countries where money represents everything! Power, identity, and even having the ability to be part of the aristocracy! However, I still want to say that if you have free time, please study this ring and its mysteries. I believe that the ring won’t only just allow a person to gain immense wealth, there might be other mysteries hidden inside it!” Steven said.

“Thank you for your kind reminder. I will try to study it when I have free time!” I nodded indifferently. Even if there were any mysteries, I had no interest in them.

Steven also knew that I was just replying perfunctorily, and didn’t know what to say, so he just said, “Mr. Liu, I have a request: If you ever find out the secrets of the ring, I hope you will tell me about it.”

“Hehe, you will have to wait for me to actually research and find out the secret,” I said with a smile.

Steven understood that I was only being polite and wasn’t going to actually study it, so he could only nod helplessly and say, “Thank you, Mr. Liu! I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you before. All right, I will leave first. I have a lecture in one of my institutes, so I must prepare for it beforehand!”

“It doesn’t matter, it’s fine that everything has been explained now. Walk carefully, I won’t send you out!” I said with a nod.

Now it seems that the matter has come to a close. I returned to B City first while Du Xiaowei stayed behind to deal with the matter of integrating Jake’s company with our own.

On Saturday, I returned to D City according to the agreement I had with Yang Mei, mainly to satisfy her mother Li Xiaohong. Although the atmosphere was quite harmonious, Mother Yang felt quite proud and elated before her relatives. However, since I already knew about Yang Mei’s feelings, I couldn’t face her directly and deliberately kept a little distance from her.

“Yang Mei also felt the change in me. She wanted to say a few things but hesitated just when she tried to speak. I had no alternatives either. As selfish a person can be, I naturally wanted to take Yang Mei as my own woman, after all, which man will ever reject any beauty he was getting! But my sanity told me that I should do it. I had no emotional relationship with her. All the women beside me had gone through a lot with me before we got together, while Yang Mei and I were only former colleagues. I don’t know what kind of sentiments she would have for me. Was it admiration? A favorable impression? Or was she just curious?”

Therefore, I didn’t want to make her regret anything for a lifetime just because of my selfishness. After all, I already have so many women and it’s impossible for me to give all my love to just one of them. Therefore, although the relationship between her and me was a bit ambiguous, there wasn’t any substantial advancement.

After returning, I found Chu Gao and asked him to find an opportunity to promote Yang Mei. I don’t know why I decided to do this. Was it because of my conscience or a man’s possessive desire that wouldn’t let me give up on her?

Chu Gao, this brat, immediately put on a sly smile and said while patting his chest, “Boss, you don’t even have to say. I will obviously be in favor of your woman!”

I bitterly smiled. Yang Mei and my relationship were quite ambiguous. It was no secret in the New Century Group, everyone knew of it. Especially, ever since my identity was exposed, everyone already considered Yang Mei as my woman in this place! Even Chu Gao thought so. I really feel that telling Chu Gao to look after her was simply redundant.

I knew that my explanations would be considered nothing here, so I didn’t refute.
