It\u2019s not that important for me. Why don\u2019t you tell me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His tenderness makes me even more overwhelmed.<\/p>\n<p>Shouldn\u2019t he be angry when knowing that I lost the ring?<\/p>\n<p>After all, proposal ring is not a trivial thing that could be easily lost.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, you really won\u2019t blame me?&#8221; I ask him carefully.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are so much more important than a ring.
