C9

When Lin Jing returned to the restaurant, Jiang Qianxue was counting the green porcelain in the restaurant. When she saw Lin Jing, she smiled for the first time.

Lin Jing was stunned for a moment, then he understood that it might be because of the gift he gave Jiang Qianxue last night. However, when Lin Jing looked carefully at Jiang Qianxue's wrist, he found that she wasn't wearing the bracelet.

"Don't you like it?" Lin Jing thought in disappointment.

"..."

The sun rose and set. The afternoon passed quickly, and just as Jiang Qianxue was about to close the door and return home, another miscellaneous girl, Xiao Hui, ran in with a newspaper in her hands.

"Sister Xue, 120 million!" 120 million! "

Jiang Qianxue pretended to be angry and threw a glass of water to Little Hui. "Why are you in such a hurry? No one's fighting with you for air!"

Lin Jing, who was at the side, heard the figure of 120 million. He was puzzled. Could the newspaper be so fast now?

Lin Jing leaned towards Jiang Qianxue and looked at the newspaper in her hands.

"The most valuable item of the Donghai City, the « Flowing Water Hibiscus Diagram » was sold for one hundred and twenty million gold coins. The young master of the Heng Family got it."

"The third item is the [Aqua Hibiscus] manual. Everyone is still guessing what kind of precious items will be auctioned in the future. They didn't expect that the Auction Competition this time around would have already ended …"

"This time, the Auction of the Soaring Dragon Auction House has won the hearts of countless people.

"It's Tang Yin's painting!" After reading the newspaper, Jiang Qianxue's eyes sparkled like countless stars. Lin Jing had never seen a girl like her before.

"You like Tang Yin very much?" Lin Jing asked.

"Of course!" Jiang Qianxue replied without any hesitation.

"Then I'll definitely gift you one in the future." Lin Jing said.

"What did you say?" Jiang Qianxue said.

"Then we should go home for dinner." Lin Jing said.

"…"

At the same time, the news of the Auction had already spread throughout the entire Donghai City. Apart from the shock, the people from the three families were guessing who the seller was.

At this moment, the mysterious seller was like a little girl, grabbing pieces of petals and mumbling, "She likes that bracelet, she doesn't. She likes it, she doesn't like it …"

In the next few days, even though Auction had already passed, the antique market for Donghai City was still bustling with activity. Many people who came from the other provinces all buried their heads into the Antique City, hoping to find a loophole in them.

The local people also had a keen sense of smell, and in an instant, the highly imitated works of Donghai City, Tang Bohu, flooded the place.

"Mom, I'm going to the Antique City!" After saying this, Jiang Qianxue wanted to run outside. These past few days, she had been going to the Antique City every day. To be able to see so many of Tang Yin's paintings, even if it was fake, Jiang Qianxue was very happy.

"Have you forgotten what day it is today? Jewelry exhibition! Chiang Xu will pick you up in a while! " Liu Fen tossed a black evening gown on the sofa and urged Jiang Qianxue to change into it.

Jiang Qianxue hesitated for a moment before replying, "Alright." Chiang Xu did indeed owe something to his family. Jiang Qianxue had always disliked owing others, so this time she was going with Chiang Xu. However, it was only this one time.

Returning to her room to change into her evening dress, Jiang Qianxue flipped through the jewelry box to select the right accessory. Finally, her gaze suddenly fell onto a brocade box at the bottom. Inside the box was the Dragon Stone Bracelet that Lin Jing gave her.

Jiang Qianxue took out the bracelet and put it on her hand. Then she stood in front of the mirror, her face suddenly blank. She knew she was beautiful, but at the moment, her black evening dress seemed to be overflowing with green.

A moment later, Jiang Qianxue's face was burning as she left the mirror. She felt a little narcissistic …

Today was a jewellery exhibition with famous Donghai City, and all the famous ladies from the big families would be there. Jiang Qianxue didn't want to embarrass Chiang Xu by bringing the glass bracelet that was worth a few hundred yuan, but after thinking for a bit, Jiang Qianxue took it out again.

Maybe Chiang Xu would not pester him after losing face, right? Jiang Qianxue thought.

When Jiang Qianxue came down from the stairs, Lin Jing happened to see it. He knew clearly in his heart that Father Jiang and Liu Fen had always wanted to climb up Chiang Family's big tree. Today was the jewelry show's opening ceremony, so Chiang Xu would personally come to pick Jiang Qianxue up.

If nothing unexpected happened, then Chiang Xu's pursuit for Jiang Qianxue would be officially announced. As for her marriage, this was not a problem at all, as the entire city knew, Jiang Family's marriage was just a business tactic.

Who was Lin Jing?

The orphan, who was a cripple, naturally had no right to occupy the city's most beautiful woman, Jiang Qianxue.

If it was before, Lin Jing might have felt that there was nothing wrong with this matter. He knew that he was unworthy of Jiang Qianxue, and at the same time, he loved her.

Wasn't there a saying, "Real love is letting go"?

In the past, Lin Jing should have let go.

But now it was different. He could give Jiang Qianxue the life she wanted, but would she do it?
