Jiang Hua glanced at the information about the gemstone. At the counters, the sales clerk found the limited-edition gemstone ring that matched Jiang Hua's criteria. She said, "MK Jewelry Group has changed the name of this series, so it's normal that you don't know it. Next time... you can take a closer look at the cutting techniques and craftsmanship of these gemstones. If you look closely at these gemstones, you'll find that they all have their own unique techniques in the details of each gemstone."
"It can shine under any conditions. Just remember these shapes."
Besides brand effect, gemstones have many other details that other jewelry companies cannot imitate.
"I'll go to the studio later and give you the other relevant materials."
"No need. Sister Huahua, someone has already taken care of your business. Just relax and go on your date with your husband."
Jiang Hua asked curiously, "Have you finished doing it for me?"
Huo Ling nodded: "Yes, we now have detailed information on jewelry from all over the country. I'm just verifying the completeness of this information, and we're just missing this last one."
"Then... I'll head back now, I won't bother you any longer, Sister Huahua."
Huo Ling turned her head and suddenly bumped her forehead into someone. The person was as hard as a wall, making her forehead hurt. Before she could look up and see his face clearly, she heard that familiar voice, "Whose little girl is this? Be careful."
Huo Ling stared at him in shock, her eyes wide. He...he...how did he get here?
"Let my brother see if I've bumped into anything."
Huo Ling reacted quickly, dodging his touch. Jiang Hua didn't expect it to be such a coincidence to run into him here. This sly fox, Jiang Hua knew him, he was the design director of the design department of Xuzhou Lanjiang Group. Jiang Hua could only describe him as disgusting.
Every time I bumped into him, he was with a different woman. This time, the girl with him looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old. She was petite, with an oval face and fair skin. In person, she looked like a delicate, harmless little white flower that made people want to protect her.
"Brother, who are these sisters?"
"do you know?"
The girl, even her voice was strained, looked at Xu Zhoulan while holding his arm and said, "Let me introduce you, this is the daughter of the Jiang Group, and this..." When she got to Huo Ling, she paused slightly with a meaningful tone, "She is... an employee of the Jiang Group."
"Miss Jiang is alone?"
Jiang Hua crossed her arms and glanced at him with disdain. "Mind your own business."
The women around him really come in all sorts of ways, one after another.
Nausea.
Jiang Hua had seen him before at the Golden Splendor Hotel. He was sitting up on the sofa in a private room with a woman. Compared to Pei Zhan, this kind of person was really not as pleasing to the eye.
"Go away!"
Jiang Hua deliberately avoided him, as if afraid of getting something dirty on him. Huo Ling took her notebook, wrote down what she needed to write, and left as well, without even glancing at the person next to her.
After leaving, Huo Ling didn't feel as insignificant as she had imagined. When she recalled the time he appeared before her with a girl who looked even more delicate than her, Huo Ling still felt a little uncomfortable in her chest.
However, she quickly suppressed this inappropriate emotion.
No matter what, their relationship was nothing more than a physical transaction. Besides the age gap, there was also their social status, including... an engagement that she had no say in.
It's only a year. After a year, once she's finished what she needs to do here, she'll probably go back and fulfill her marriage obligations.
She wasn't the type to cling to him relentlessly.
Even if he has many women around him, it has nothing to do with her.
However, before she could even step out of the gates of the First City Under Heaven, two bodyguards suddenly appeared in front of her. "Miss, that gentleman just now invited you to come over."
"Who is it?" Is it my older brother?
"You'll know once you get there."
When Huo Ling went with them, she discovered that the person looking for her was not her older brother, but... him.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Xu Zhoulan patted the spot next to him. "It's only been a short while, and you're already so cold to your brother." With his captivating peach blossom eyes, he waved to the bodyguard behind her. He then leaned back lazily on the sofa in the VIP lounge, his legs crossed, a cigarette still in his hand.
Huo Ling didn't step forward, but leaned against the door. "Uncle, didn't you come with your girlfriend?"
"What if my uncle's girlfriend gets angry if I show up here?"
"My older brother doesn't allow me to associate with people I'm not familiar with."
As Huo Ling turned to leave, the bodyguards did not leave but blocked her way.
"Little Ling'er, I've told you many times, you should call me brother."
Huo Ling was ushered into the lounge, and then the door closed. Xu Zhoulan stubbed out his half-finished cigarette, stood up, and hugged the girl from behind around the waist. "Jealous?"
Huo Ling struggled and moved her body slightly, but the man buried his face in her neck, as if he was infatuated with her scent. "Little Ling'er, you smell so good."
"Did you wear perfume?"
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
"Didn't Little Ling'er say she would cherish the time she spends with her brother? How come she's already tired of it so quickly?"
When Huo Ling heard his voice, it was like a venomous snake coiling around her, leaving her unable to struggle.
What exactly is this person trying to do?
Huo Ling frowned, about to strike him when he was off guard, but her movements seemed to have been anticipated by him. Her wrist was tightly gripped, and looking at the still-present hickeys on her snow-white arm, he felt a surge of desire for her.
He kissed her again in the same spot.
"Would you like to try it here?"
Huo Ling: "Are you crazy?"
"Let me go!"
That hand had already reached into his collar, and Huo Ling bit his arm hard. Then she slapped Xu Zhoulan across the face. "I'm so sorry, Uncle. My hand doesn't have eyes. I don't know how I ended up slapping you. You should find another woman to play with here."
"I still have classes at school, so I'll be going now."
Xu Zhoulan seemed to have gone mad. He grabbed Huo Ling's neck with his hand, and his smile was like poison. "My game with Xiao Ling'er is not over yet. Xiao Ling'er wants to leave, but brother hasn't agreed yet."
"What...what do you want to do!" Huo Ling felt like he couldn't breathe because his neck was being choked, and his hand was tightening its grip little by little.
