"No, I have to find it," Jian Xi's OCD kicked in. She bent down to search under the table.
Nothing there.
Under the chair!
Still nothing...
She began to expand her search area, the living room, the couch, the coffee table, the bedroom... The more she couldn't find it, the more determined she was to search.
Nan Mufeng pursed his lips, took a beer and drank, while occasionally glancing at her.
After searching the whole house, Jian Xi raced around, sweating from the effort, but still couldn't find it.
"How peculiar, could the ring have grown legs and flown away?"
"Just forget about it if you can't find it..." Nan Mufeng said again.
Jian Xi placed her hands on her hips, breathing heavily, "No! Anything else can be forgotten, but the ring must be returned."
The corner of Nan Mufeng's lips twitched, thinking to himself: Wouldn't it be better for you to keep it?
Jian Xi took out the broom and started searching once more, meticulously.
