Selina is one step closer to becoming a missus.

The Taiwanese singer had gotten engaged to boyfriend Richard Chang in a hush-hush affair on Sept 12.

For the engagement, Selina had intentionally chosen a simple, less than TWD20, 000 (SGD 1,000) "small" diamond ring - a far cry from the Piaget diamond watch Richard presented her earlier - as she had felt that the proposal gift was extravagant enough.

"It's (the engagement ring) only for remembrance sake, this way I can wear it often," Selina explained.

She also added that a "small" diamond ring is ideal as it would be convenient to wear around without being too flashy.

According to close friends of the family, Selina's dad has insisted on the engagement as he felt that "an engagement ceremony proves that the pair is openly together".

However, the Jens did not demand for a traditional wedding.

"The wedding (ceremony) will be in one's memory for a lifetime. I don't want them (Selina and Richard) to be like me in the past, bounded by traditional customs," Selina's dad was quoted as saying.

To keep the engagement low key, the ceremony was held in a western restaurant owned by Richard's friend, and only a total of nine family members were in attendance.

Selina had reportedly informed fellow band members Ella and Hebe about her engagement only after the ceremony.

"I've gotten engaged tonight. A simple ceremony, a simple ring, but with a not-so-simple courage, I share my happiness and joy with you," she texted, in the wee hours of the night.

The singer had also apparently been honing her cooking skills in preparation for marriage life, often sharing pictures of her "masterpieces" on her weibo (blog).

The couple is said to be planning for an unforgettable April's Fool wedding next year.
