Li Zhiyuan furrowed his eyebrows. He had met many people like him who were nice on the outside but terrible deep down.
Shen Qianshu laughed in anger. Gu Xiaoli made it sound as if Shen Qianshu was the third party who messed up other people's relationships. The approach of retreating before advancing was well-used, and it made Shen Qianshu seem like the vicious queen while Gu Xiaoli appeared to be Snow White.
What a joke!
"Gu Xiaoli, don't seem so sensible. I'm almost moved to tears. The two of you are truly in love, why retreat? I wish the best for both of you. I have broken up with Yuan Hui, so it's fine. The two of you can get rid of public nuisance for society when together. You guys have to stay loving for life. Don't cause trouble." Shen Qianshu hit the nail on the head with this answer, hitting Gu Xiaoli so hard that she almost raged.
"Qianshu, I swear, I will forever…"
"Stop degrading the purpose of promises. Do you know how much of a joke it is when people like you make promises?" Shen Qianshu looked at him coldly and continued. "Yuan Hui, you and I are over. From today, we go our separate ways. Stop pestering me."
"If you don't save me, I'll die…"
"You won't die. You have a house on the west side of the city. Sell it and repay your debts. You would still have two million left. You won't die."
Yuan Hui was startled. He explained hurriedly. "That belongs to my parents, and they can't sell it. They would first sell me…"
"Then just die." Shen Qianshu laughed coldly and stared at him. "Get rid of a public nuisance for society."
Yuan Hui looked at her, feeling slightly infuriated. But upon seeing Li Zhiyuan beside her, he appeared as if he had been cuckolded instantly. "Shen Qianshu, you have such a heart of stone that you would not save a dying man. Is it because you have climbed high? It's no wonder that you are not in the slightest bit upset when my affair was exposed. Seems like I was already cuckolded long ago."
Shen Qianshu stared at Yuan Hui, flabbergasted. Li Zhiyuan laughed. The expression in Shen Qianshu's eyes seemed as if she was showing concern to a mentally disabled child. It was funny.
"What are you laughing at?" Yuan Hui was so embarrassed he became angry.
Li Zhiyuan took a step forward and held Shen Qianshu by her waist. "Yuan Hui, huh? It's rare that you are so clever. Be a man. You are dumped. It's nothing to be ashamed of. If I were her, it'd be a miracle to be able to bear with you."
"You…"
Shen Qianshu facepalmed seeing Yuan Hui's chest heaving with suppressed rage. Li Zhiyuan looked at him coldly and said, "Stop pestering Qianshu."
Li Zhiyuan placed his arm around Shen Qianshu and brought her into the car.
Shen Qianshu stayed silent through the entire ride.
Li Zhiyuan looked at her from sideways, confused. Was she naturally so cold? Her boyfriend cheated on her, and she was dumped. The third party was her classmate. She did not even seem upset in the slightest bit. This puzzled him.
"You're aren't upset at all?"
"I was already sad yesterday," Shen Qianshu said calmly.
"It's a breakup. You're only sad for a day?" Li Zhiyuan looked at her and smiled. This little princess broke up and recovered from the sadness so quickly.
He did not think that Shen Qianshu was fickle in love. He thought that it was just because her feelings for Yuan Hui were not deep.
Yeah, like this.
"What else can I do? Wallow in self-pity?" Shen Qianshu propped her head and continued. "My feelings for Yuan Hui were never deep. I'm lucky to be able to see his true colors early. It is something worth celebrating for, not to be upset about."
"That makes perfect sense."
There was nothing wrong about that.
"CEO Li, I'm thankful for today."
"How about you stop calling me CEO Li? It makes me sound old."
"Prince Li."
Li Zhiyuan was speechless.
Whatever. At least it sounds better than CEO Li.
Shen Qianshu entered Gubelin in her business attire.
Gubelin was one of the world's most famous gemological laboratory. It was also a center for jewelry appraisal with a great reputation. Gubelin's appraisal held the most power and prestige among all jewelry appraisals. Other than that, Gubelin was also famous for being expensive and strict. Jewelry sent to Gubelin were usually rare and scarce. As a result, average jewelry companies would not invite Gubelin for appraisals as the costs were too high and that they were… too strict.
Just the previous year, there was a pigeon-red ruby that was worth thirty million with appraisals from centers like GIA and IGI. However, due to various reasons, when the seller sent it to Gubelin for appraisal, trace amounts of impurities were discovered, causing the value of it to fall. Hence, most companies would not send their jewels to Gubelin for appraisals other than a few international companies which were prestigious. Simply put, Gubelin was the most outstanding one in the field.
In Asia, there was only one Gubelin Gem Lab, which was in Hong Kong. The Gubelin lab in City A was set up to meet the increasing demands in the jewelry industry in Asia just two years ago. They mainly worked on rare jewels for large companies and the two auction markets for City A, which had become high-end centers for trade.
The moment Shen Qianshu stepped in, the ladies in the office were unusually excited, getting together to gossip.
"Qianshu, Qianshu. A big deal…" Chen Qiuxiang rolled her chair over gleefully. A few male colleagues also seemed extremely happy. Shocked, Shen Qianshu said, "What 'big deal?'"
"AG Jewelry is going to discuss an upcoming project with us. In the future, high-end products will all be sent to Gubelin."
Shen Qianshu raised her eyebrows. "Those in power at AG must have too much time on their hands. Why would they need appraisals from Gubelin?"
This did not go well with the way the company operated.
There was a feeling of money being spent unnecessarily.
"I think so too. Otherwise, they are simply money dispensers," a male colleague said. "Although our appraisals could multiply the value of the jewels manyfold, if the quality isn't great, what could have been sold for ten million could also drop to two million because of our appraisals. I really can't figure out what's up with them."
"Don't bother about it. Don't you see our boss grinning from ear to ear? We caught a big fish. Anyway, the AG financial group is filthy rich."
In City A, one was more likely to know about the existence of AG financial group than the mayor of the city.
The AG financial group had many flagships, both in the country and abroad. These included widely-known biopharmaceutical, financial, and securities institutions, as well as the largest courier company in the country. Five years ago, they bought over a well-established jewelry company and renamed it AG Jewels. In the five years, they brought international attention for AG Jewelry, making it a famous brand internationally. The AG financial group had a huge asset collection chain, and they created an empire, taking City A by storm.
"The AG financial group rose up in the past five years, becoming international. It is heard that it was all thanks to the Prince of AG. The media only found out his name today. The Prince of AG, the fresh golden bachelor from City A, is called Ye Ling. My Prince Charming Li Zhiyuan is now ranked number two."
"WHO?!" Shen Qianshu almost spat the drink in her mouth out. She coughed violently. Wasn't the person in power of the AG financial group from the Lu Family?
This was definitely earth-shattering news!
Shen Qianshu suddenly thought of something. Why would Gubelin suddenly receive such a massive deal from AG?
Was it for me?
Master, are you kidding me?
