Chapter 40
Who’s the Owner of the Ring?
After Yujin changed into the clothes and put on makeup, she looked like an angel. Everyone was stunned by Yujin.
The exhibition officially began… The music started, and the models debuted with the jewelry…
Finally, it was Shang Yujin’s turn… However, she was different from the other models. She did not wear the ring—instead, it was displayed in the ring box. However, although that was the case, Yujin was not inferior to the other models.
Jian Dan finally noticed the ring… It was the one she saw at Chu Liyuan’s place that night…
At the end of the exhibition was the auction of the exhibits. Because there would be some unique exhibits every year, they would be auctioned.
However, unlike the previous exhibitions, the finale ring was not for sale. It was only for the day’s exhibition.
Many people felt that this was very strange. After all, many people liked it very much.
At the auction, the finale ring—Starry Love—was placed in the most eye-catching display cabinet, which had gathered a large crowd by then.
“It’s so beautiful.”
“That’s right! The design is ingenious and really special.”
“But why is it not for sale? I really want it.”
As they chatted about the ring, many people began to speculate the reason why it was not for sale. They also linked it to some recent rumors.
Recently, there had been rumors that a woman had appeared by Chu Liyuan’s side. She had shown up in the office at night and acted intimately with him.
However, many people were still skeptical of this rumor. After all, everyone in the corporate world knew that Chu Liyuan had never had a woman by his side. There were even rumors that Chu Liyuan hated women to the point of disgust.
But now, it seemed that this rumor might have a ring of truth to it. After all, the finale ring was not for sale. There were rumors that it was for a certain someone, so they did not even let the model wear it; it was only shown in the display box.
Now, it seemed increasingly true…
The auction ended very quickly. There was a c.o.c.ktail party at night…
“What’s with this corsage?”
The person-in-charge of the c.o.c.ktail party looked at the corsage sent by the florist and questioned loudly.
“We prepared everything according to your company’s requirements,” the florist said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
“Who’s in charge of the corsage?” the person-in-charge asked coldly.
“It’s Jian Dan!” someone replied.
“Where is she? Tell her to come over immediately!” the person-in-charge said in exasperation.
Jian Dan was taking care of the food and drinks in the kitchen…
“What happened?”
When the person-in-charge saw that it was Mr. Chu and Mr. Li, he broke out in a cold sweat… After all, he had been in the head office for three years. He knew Mr. Chu’s temper very well. If Mr. Chu found out that there was a problem with the corsage, their entire department would be fired.
Chu Liyuan had already noticed the corsage and casually picked it up… The person-in-charge was already trembling in fear like a burned child dreads the fire.
The corsage was made of baby’s breath, some forget-me-nots and pinwheel fruits. Although it was not as grand as the white rose, it gave off another vibe…
The person-in-charge was trembling in fear and did not know what to say. After all, Mr. Chu never listened to explanations. He thought that he was really going to be fired for sure.
However, Chu Liyuan placed the corsage on the table and said, “Not bad. It matches the theme of this exhibition.”
The person-in-charge could not believe what he had heard. He looked at Mr. Chu in shock, but Chu Liyuan did not stop and walked in.
Oh my G.o.d, how lucky was he? Not only was he not fired, but he was also praised?
When had Mr. Chu ever praised anyone? It was only right that he did a good job.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get ready!” Li Jing reminded the person-in-charge.
After Li Jing left, the person-in-charge wiped the sweat off his forehead and instructed his subordinates, “Hurry up and get ready!” As he watched Mr. Chu leave, he felt as if he had been pardoned.
After Jian Dan was done with the food and drinks, she arrived at the c.o.c.ktail party. When she saw the gowns that everyone was wearing at the c.o.c.ktail party—and she looked at the T-shirt and jeans that she was wearing—she really did not fit in. Hence, she went to the changing room to change into the little gown—it was actually just an ordinary dress—she had prepared in advance.
Jian Dan was wearing a light yellow dress with lotus leaves. Coupled with a pair of nude short-heeled sandals and simple makeup on her face, she looked youthful, cute, and a little s.e.xy.
When Jian Dan returned to the c.o.c.ktail party, she b.u.mped into Mei Xiaolin. Mei Xiaolin was wearing a black fishtail gown that exposed her entire back. She looked very s.e.xy and enchanting. Because of her foot injury, she did not wear high heels and chose silver flats.
Mei Xiaolin looked at Jian Dan as if she was a thorn in her side. She rolled her eyes and walked away from Jian Dan…
Her appearance naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention. She enjoyed the attention of everyone.
She was still immersed in this state of being the center of attention when Yujin’s appearance attracted everyone’s attention.
Yujin was wearing a long white dress and looked like an angel. Mei Xiaolin was overshadowed.
Mei Xiaolin stared daggers at Yujin, as if she wanted to skin her alive.
“Yujin, you’re so beautiful today!”
Yujin was already very beautiful to begin with. Now that she was dressed up, she looked like an angel.
“You’re beautiful too!”
Shang Yujin looked at Jian Dan and said gently.
Jian Dan was a very cute girl to begin with. Now that she was wearing this gown, she looked a little s.e.xier. She gave a different vibe.
“How can I compare to you? Next to you, I’m an ugly duckling!” Jian Dan mocked herself.
“That’s such an exaggeration” Yujin covered her mouth and chuckled.
“A diamond in the rough will not stay in the dark forever,” Jian Dan said with a smile.
Jian Dan felt that Yujin was born to live under the spotlight…
