Chapter 46
The next day when Yu Shu woke up, Shen Youlin had already left the hotel. She sent him a WeChat message saying "Good morning" with a smiling clown emoji.
The clown had a gloomy expression, with an eerie smile.
Yu Shu patted Shen Youlin: you patted "Shen Baccha's" shoes and knelt down shouting "Dad, I was wrong"
"............"
When did he change to patting!
Shen Youlin: Oh, saying good morning to dad so early?
Yu Shu: [What kind of pig are you, so arrogant jpg.]
Yu Shu was too lazy to deal with him. She turned on the do not disturb message and called for breakfast.
Along with breakfast, a beautifully packaged gift box was also delivered. The waiter said it was left by Shen Youlin.
An apology gift?
Yu Shu's hand stopped as she opened it. Shen Youlin would never apologize, the sun must be rising from the west today.
It must be some prank toy, with a pop-up rat, cockroach, simulated snake or something.
Yu Shu stretched out her arm and carefully opened the gift with the opening facing outwards. Unexpectedly, there really was a snake in the box, but it was made of diamonds, a Bvlgari snake diamond necklace.
No woman can resist diamonds, including Yu Shu.
In this short time, Shen Youlin’s messages reached 99+. Full of emoji’s.
Seeing the necklace, Yu Shu showed great compassion and turned off his do not disturb message.
Yu Shu: [Thank you boss jpg.]
Shen Youlin: [You're welcome, the boss's plane is about to take off. Remember to treat me to a meal when you return to Rong City.]
Yu Shu: [OK, have a safe flight boss~]
Yu Shu played in Hainan for another two days. She was going to go back, but received her college roommate's wedding invitation, so she went to Yunnan instead.
The bride-to-be brought her groom-to-be to the airport to pick her up. As soon as Yu Shu met them, she hugged her roommate: "Ou Doudou! You walked into the grave of marriage so early?”
Ou Doudou shyly covered her cheeks: "I couldn't help it, I met true love. Be my bridesmaid, okay?"
Yu Shu immediately declined: “No, you know I hate trouble the most. I’ll give you a big red envelope, just exempt me and find two others instead, twins as bridesmaids would be impressive!"
"Well, Zhiyang Xia and ZhiXia Yang won't arrive until next week. Go with me first to help pick bridesmaid dresses for them.”
“That I can do.”
There were four people in Yu Shu’s college dormitory. Apart from her and Ou Doudou, the other two girls were twins, one named Xia Zhiyang and one named Yang ZhiXia.
As the two were catching up, the groom-to-be texted his cousin: Come quick, gorgeous sexy beauty.
For the first meal in Yunnan, they of course had mushroom hot pot. The restaurant wouldn’t even give them chopsticks until after the pot started boiling.
While waiting for the pot to start boiling, the groom-to-be “coincidentally” ran into his cousin at the restaurant.
“Cousin, what are you doing here too?"
When Zhou Zhengan first saw Yu Shu, he was very surprised: "I... I had an appointment with a client who stood me up."
"Then sit down and eat with us." Ou Doudou introduced them, "Yu Shu, this is Xu Kai’s cousin. This is my friend Yu Shu."
"Hello Miss Yu, My name is Zhou Zhengan. Nice to meet you." Zhou Zhengan reached out his hand and politely shook hers briefly before letting go.
"No need to be so polite, just call me Yu Shu."
When talking about their careers during the meal, Yu Shu admitted that she was currently unemployed and staying at home.
"You quit your job? How come I never heard you mention it?" Ou Doudou was a little surprised.
After graduation, Yu Shu had always been very busy, rarely talking in their dormitory WeChat group, so they didn't really understand her recent situation.
Yu Shu's skills in making excuses was first-rate. She immediately said: "Kids don’t have mothers. It’s a long story, I’ll tell you about it later."
Ou Doudou: “Oh, okay.”
The topic naturally moved away from Yu Shu and onto Zhou Zhengan. Zhou Zhengan's family was in the jade business. After graduation, he returned home to inherit the family business.
Yu Shu’s eyes instantly lit up. This was a pillow meeting when sleepy. She had come to Yunnan without preparing to return empty-handed, and was worried about not being able to find an expert to take her to buy gems and stones. She happened to meet a shop owner directly.
Zhou Zhengan readily agreed with a smile that widened slightly, "The market is not far from here. I'll take you around. If you don't see anything you like, I have a batch of rough arriving tomorrow that I can custom make for you."
"Then I'll have to trouble Big Brother Zhou."
"No trouble at all."
After lunch, Ou Doudou and Xu Kai went shopping for wedding supplies, while Yu Shu followed Zhou Zhengan to the jade wholesale market to gain more understanding.
The wholesale market was shockingly huge, with finished products and semi-finished products on one side, and the rough stone area on the other. The two started from the finished and semi-finished area. Yu Shu liked everything she saw. Zhou Zhengan explained while helping her bargain. For items with suitable prices, he would help her get them at half price, all exquisite pieces.
Before making it halfway through, Yu Shu had already spent over seven figures.
"Tired? Let's go over there and take a break."
"A little."
Zhou Zhengan took her to the rest area to sit down. Yu Shu took out the spoils of war stuffed in rice bags and started appreciating them, "Which do you think would be suitable as a dowry for Doudou?"
"They're all good, but matching pairs carry better meaning for dowries."
"You’re right, help me pick out some more later." Seeing everything as novelties, Yu Shu looked around everywhere. When she saw a huge rock in the corner, her heart started thumping rapidly, with a familiar sense of foreboding welling up once more.
Such a huge rough stone, it must be unaffordable right?
"Why is that rock just left outside in the sun and rain?" Yu Shu pointed at the stone and asked, "So huge, it must be worth a lot of money!"
"That rock is very famous in this market, known for being a waste." Zhou Zhengan slowly told a story from the past, "That stone, my friend brought back 12 years ago from Myanmar, weighing over 2 tons. The shipping fee alone back then cost 170-180k."
"He spent 3 million to buy it back, cut 4 windows, wasted into 300 pieces." As she showed interest, Zhou Zhengan brought her closer to take a look, shining his flashlight to illuminate the openings of the mineral, "Doesn't it look quite a bit like jade, and the water head looks pretty good too? But it's actually all water foam jade, a kind of semi-precious mineral of jade, worthless."
"That rock drove my friend crazy, after cutting it open he just threw it here and ignored it. Whenever he comes here he walks clutching his chest, heart-broken."
"This water foam jade looks quite nice, ask your friend if he's willing to sell it to me for a coffee table."
"......Are you serious?"
Yu Shu nodded, "Yes."
