Si Cheng looked at the tear that streaked from the corner of Tan Si’s eye and smiled slightly. “No need. 1 can handle it. Just wait for my news quietly.”
Seeing this, Tan Si could not rush him anymore. She could only comfort herself in her heart. At least Si Cheng still planned to get a divorce. In the end, she nodded obediently and invited, “Si Cheng, Dad and Mom said that they haven’t seen you in a long time. They want to invite you to my house for a meal this week.”
Since the divorce was postponed, it was good to go to the Tan family to comfort Tan Si first so that this stupid woman would not cause trouble for him everywhere. Si Cheng agreed readily. “Alright, let’s do it the day after tomorrow, on Sunday.”
The two of them were smiling as they looked into each other’s eyes. If someone who didn’t know better saw this, they would think that they were a couple with deep feelings for each other.
Soon, it was two days before the opening ceremony of the Tianqi branch. Li Mei’s heart ached for Tan Ming because she was under too much pressure from studying. She used the excuse that she wanted to buy some jewelry and asked Tan Ming to go shopping in the city center with her after class.
Based on the Jiang family’s status, as long as Li Mei said a word, those jewelry shops would rush to bring the best styles to her. However, Li Mei wanted to enjoy the joy of shopping with Tan Ming. This was originally supposed to be a very ordinary thing, but they had been missing this experience for 23 years.
Although they were buying jewelry, most women wouldn’t choose to go straight to their destination when shopping. After Tan Ming had dinner with her mother, she was dragged to try on clothes. If she hadn’t rejected her strongly, Li Mei would have bought all the good-looking clothes Tan Ming was trying on.
…..
Tan Ming saw that Li Mei had left her home address in the nth shop and asked the other party to deliver it to her door. She hurriedly pulled her arm and went straight to the jewelry shop. “Mom, the mall closes at 11 pm. It’s almost 10 pm. Let’s go take a look at the jewelry first. Otherwise, we won’t have time.”
Buying jewelry was supposed to just be an excuse, but it was better to make up for it. Li Mei lowered her head to look at her watch and agreed with Tan Ming. “Alright, we’ll come and look at the clothes another day.”
Tan Ming nodded repeatedly.
As soon as the two of them entered the shop, Tan Ming saw Yuan Shao holding three necklaces and comparing them at the counter. Although the other party was wearing sunglasses, they had just filmed a variety show for two days not long ago, so Tan Ming recognized him at a glance.
Previously, the conflict in the variety show was only because they were playing games, so Tan Ming’s impression of Yuan Shao was just that of an artist who had participated in the variety show together with her. Due to the fact that the two of them were not familiar with each other, she did not intend to go forward to greet him. However, she was attracted by the necklace style in Yuan Shao’s hand.
When the two salespeople in the jewelry shop saw the watch in Li Mei’s hand, their eyes lit up. They controlled their expressions and quickly walked forward to greet her. They greeted in unison, “Good evening, Madam. Welcome to our D&Z Jewelry Shop!”
Li Mei was very used to such a service attitude. She smiled and nodded slightly.
Realizing that Tan Ming had eyed a necklace, Li Mei pulled Tan Ming to Yuan Shao’s side.
However, after the two of them went forward, they first looked in the cabinet to see if there were any other good designs. Yuan Shao was conflicted about which one to choose and did not notice Tan Ming.
“Sir, the design of these three necklaces is very special. If you’re giving it as a gift to a female friend, this Angel’s Wings model is better. Whether it’s the meaning or the carat number of this sapphire, this jewelry is valuable. No matter which necklace you buy, you won’t lose. It mainly depends on what you like.”
The ‘Angel’s Wings’ recommended by the salesperson was the most expensive necklace among the three. It was also the first necklace that Yuan Shao had taken a fancy to. However, the price of 780,000 yuan not only made his heart ache, but his bones were also in so much pain that they were about to turn to dust. His savings account had less than 790,000 yuan. If he bought it, he would have to eat dirt!
Because Yuan Shao had not completed the task given by Tan Si on the variety show and had been punished by Jiang Huai to do something so embarrassing, Tan Si vented all her anger on Yuan Shao after meeting him in the company yesterday. She had even said that he could forget about joining the production team with her and planned to give the spot that originally belonged to him to another competitor.
It had been a few months since Yuan Shao had received a role in the production team. When he heard this, he immediately panicked and looked for Zhou Yun. The other party asked him to buy the new necklace in this jewelry shop as an apology. The cheapest jewelry in D&Z cost five digits. This time, he couldn’t hesitate to fork out all his money.
However, after thinking for a long time, Yuan Shao finally decided to buy another necklace that was slightly lighter. After choosing, he pointed at the ruby necklace and said, “This one..”
