"Of course!" Shen Qianshu loved jewelry. Whenever jewelry was brought up, her eyes would light up. "From the materials to the design, the carving, and the polishing. All by me. Are you touched?" Shen Qianshu asked.
Lin Xiaojuan humphed coldly and said, "The gift was late by a month, but I forgive you."
Tong Hua looked at the beautiful indigo jewel curiously and asked, "Mom, what kind of rock is that?"
"It's tanzanite." Shen Qianshu explained. "When I went to Brazil in April, I bought it at a jewel market. I did not expect it to be this beautiful after carving it. It is rather rare to find such clear tanzanite. Its color is very pretty."
"It must be very expensive…?"
"I bought the ore. It's not expensive at all. The completed product is so beautiful, all thanks to me!" Shen Qianshu winked proudly and continued. "Furthermore, this jewel is authenticated by me, so it's worth thrice."
Tong Hua gave a thumbs up and praised his mother. "Mom, you're so clever."
"That's for sure."
Lin Xiaojuan looked at Shen Qianshu confusedly. She felt a little sorry for Shen Qianshu and said, "Qianshu, you took on jewelry designing back then, and you love designing too. Why did you become an appraiser?"
In recent years, Shen Qianshu did not design much. The models were either Lin Xiaojuan or Tong Hua. Most of the accessories that she and Tong Hua owned were made by Shen Qianshu. In every jewelry exhibition, she was always present, and she had collected much related to jewelry. She loved jewelry designing, yet she gave up on it.
Shen Qianshu's eyes were clear and calm as she said with slight slyness, "Xiaojuan, a great jewelry designer is not one who is just great at designing and knowing how all the software works. Jewels are different due to the minerals. Its luster, transparency, and purity determine the carving approach. A designer needs to know all these and the right approach to every carving, and they need to know how to cover up any flaws and bring out the best of the jewel. This is what a designer is great for. An appraiser does most of the job in covering up any shortcomings, quickening the process of getting work done. Don't worry about me. Furthermore, as long as it's related to jewelry, I'm interested."
Tong Hua clapped his tiny hands and continued boasting his mother. "Mummy is the best. Everything you do is the best!"
Lin Xiaojuan was speechless.
Yeah. Okay, whatever. No matter what the two of you say, it's always right.
Tong Hua went on to film for his outdoor program. Lin Xiaojuan sent Shen Qianshu out and said, "Did Li Zhiyuan still look for you recently?"
"I met him at the jewelry exhibition, and we spoke for a while," Shen Qianshu said and pondered before continuing. "He seems to be wooing me?"
Lin Xiaojuan said, "Li Zhiyuan and I never interacted much. I gathered some information about him, and it seems like he doesn't have many scandals and likes hot girls. I guess… he fell for your face."
"Thanks for the compliment on my face!" Shen Qianshu laughed hysterically and continued. "Okay, okay. I have some limits. I may have bad taste, but I have you, right? You helped me get rid of all my exes…"
"Jerk!" Lin Xiaojuan cursed jokingly and said, "I have already gotten people to teach Yuan Hui and Gu Xiaoli a lesson in the past two days. If he dares to come after you, inform me immediately. I will break his leg."
"Is he not ashamed to come and look for me?" Shen Qianshu scoffed. "I will let him know how vicious a woman's heart can be."
Lin Xiaojuan was busy, and Shen Qianshu was waiting for public transport. A royal blue Lamborghini stopped beside Shen Qianshu, and inside the car sat Li Zhiyuan smiling at Shen Qianshu. Shen Qianshu cursed inwardly. Does the second generation of rich families love acting cool?
Li Zhiyuan got off the car and leaned against the door. The sun shone brightly on him, covering him in a glimmer of golden sunshine, making him appear charismatic.
"Qianshu, what a coincidence! We meet again."
"I believe you have placed a tracking device on me." Shen Qianshu scoffed. There was too much to dislike about him.
"If I had placed a tracking device on you, it's definitely because I can't wait to see you."
Shen Qianshu sighed quietly. The scariest thing is a cultured pursuer. Harassment can take several turns and sound charming.
"CEO Li, I have a boyfriend."
"Haven't you guys broken up already?"
"How did you know?" Shen Qianshu found it strange. The incident was not exposed, and only a few people knew about it. How did he know?
Li Zhiyuan said, "Tong Hua's disappearance alarmed the entire program crew, and Lin Xiaojuan explained everything to the company. Things like these can never be hidden for long. I wanted to send people to help you out, but I also found out that you are all safe and sound. Tong Hua also came for filming today."
Shen Qianshu felt awkward.
Li Zhiyuan said, "Qianshu, you have had so many boyfriends."
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
It was all for finding Tong Hua a father these few years.
Speaking about it, she felt that it was pretty heart-wrenching.
"You don't quite have a good taste." Li Zhiyuan came to a conclusion.
For some reason, Shen Qianshu felt like that sounded very familiar. Ye Ling just said that recently; now, another one is saying I have bad taste?
Is the world trying to test my patience?
"Luckily, I fell for you and not the other way around. That makes me feel slightly better." Li Zhiyuan added.
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Prince Li, can you play by the rules and not be so unpredictable?
She did not know how to handle unpredictable situations like this.
"Qianshu, since you're single again, can I woo you?" Li Zhiyuan said.
"I have bad taste. I'm afraid I won't fall for you." Shen Qianshu scoffed.
Li Zhiyuan laughed lightly, loving her sense of humor. Looking dapper, he asked invitingly, "Dear Ms. Shen, the one with a bad taste in men, may I ask you out for a meal? Don't worry, I will make your taste in men better."
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Shen Qianshu racked her brains to find the right words to reject the meal. All of a sudden, a BMW braked hastily, almost hitting Li Zhiyuan's Lamborghini. Yuan Hui and Gu Xiaoli got off the car, and Yuan Hui rushed to Shen Qianshu, pleading for help hurriedly. "Qianshu, help me. If you don't help me, I'll die."
"Oh, then go ahead." Shen Qianshu said and smiled.
Looking at the Yuan Huai pleading, she thought that she must have been blind in the past. Although she only dated for a few months, she knew him for a year. Either she was blind or Yuan Hui's acting skills were too good. She never saw such a pathetic look behind the elite.
Yuan Hui panicked, sweating profusely. He patted his chest to express his sincerity and said, "Qianshu, you can't leave me to die! I swear I will leave Gu Xiaoli and treat you right. It wasn't my idea to kidnap Tong Hua. Gu Xiaoli did it! It has nothing to do with me."
Shen Qianshu looked towards Gu Xiaoli, and Gu Xiaoli nodded repeatedly. "Qianshu, I'm the mastermind. I shouldn't have betrayed you with him, but love is uncontrollable. I know I've let you down, but as long as he's safe, I promise to leave him and wish the both of you well."
Gu Xiaoli spoke as if she could not help with loving him, but her eyes kept moving towards Li Zhiyuan in envy.
Why was Shen Qianshu always surrounded by talented men? Even without Yuan Hui, there is Li Zhiyuan. This man clearly looks like he is of high quality. The suit, the watch, the car… It's easy to realize that he's wealthy. He also looks charismatic.
