Chapter 673 Heart of the Ocean
Chapter 673 Heart of the Ocean
Ye Jintang returned to her room and lay on the bed alone, her mind in a mess. She didn't know when Xiao Mo left, but there was a note and a jewelry box left on the table.
"Thank you for taking me in. The brooch is a small gift from grandma. Please accept it."
Looking at the note, Ye Jintang inexplicably felt a sense of alienation.
But now that things have come to this, it is best for the two of them to keep a certain distance.
She picked up the jewelry box on the table and opened it. Inside was an imperial green jade brooch. The jade was carved into the shape of a phoenix, and its tail was inlaid with a circle of diamonds.
The brooch is very gorgeous, but also quite heavy. Ye Jintang’s dress cannot support it and can only be worn with a thicker coat.
"Grandma Yin is too polite. This brooch looks like an antique one. I'm afraid it's not cheap."
Muttering to herself, Ye Jintang put the brooch into the space. After all, this was a token of love from Grandma Yin. She would give her a piece of Yuehua brocade as a return gift later.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Wuyou appeared in the hotel lobby on time. He came today to find Ye Jintang to watch Master Hu make "Heart of the Ocean".
"Before I came here today, I called Master Hu. When we go over there later, the Heart of the Ocean should have undergone final refinement and can be inlaid afterwards."
"The timing is perfect. I'm going to attend a banquet tomorrow and I can just bring the Heart of the Ocean with me."
"You mean the Xiao family's 40th anniversary party."
"Yes."
"Do you have any business dealings with their family?"
"No, just go to see a good show."
By the way, take a look at what your enemy looks like.
Zhou Wuyou didn't expect Ye Jintang to say that.
"That's true. The old man of the Xiao family is in poor health, and the next generation of heirs has not yet been decided. He should express his position on the day of the banquet, otherwise the board of directors may not be able to fool him."
Ye Jintang and Zhou Wuwei got into the car while talking, but they didn't know that Xiao Mo saw everything.
He totally didn't understand why Ye Jintang avoided him like the plague, but could talk and laugh with Zhou Wuyou and get along well with him.
Looking at the direction where the car disappeared, Xiao Mo felt extremely upset.
But now is not the time for him to feel bad, he still has a tough battle to fight.
After calming down, Xiao Mo went to find Xiao Junyu.
As soon as I got in the car, Yin Manqing called.
"Xiaomo, why didn't you take the jewelry box I gave you?"
"Yes, I've already given it to Jintang."
"How could that be? I see it's still on the table."
"Uh? On your bedroom table?"
"On your bedroom table?"
At this point, the two finally realized that they might have taken the wrong jewelry box.
"Xiao Mo, the jewelry box on my desk contains the jade brooch passed down from your great-grandmother. I plan to give it to your wife in the future."
Yin Manqing on the other end of the phone was also speechless. Xiao Mo had already given it to Ye Jintang, so why was he asking for it back?
"That's fine, Grandma. The items were delivered correctly. I'm going to my aunt's place now to discuss tomorrow's matters. I'll call you later."
Xiao Mo hung up the phone and started to get busy with work.
On the other side, Yin Manqing was holding her phone in a daze. She went over Xiao Mo's words in her mind several times, but still felt a little uncertain.
"Xiaomo doesn't like Zhou Yingying anymore, and likes Jintang now?"
Ye Jintang and Zhou Wuyou went to Master Hu's studio together.
His studio is located in a remote area, and it takes nearly an hour to drive there.
It was an independent small villa with a simple overall style, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
"Wuyou is here. Master Hu is in the inlay room. You can go directly to him."
Someone saw Zhou Wuyou and greeted him warmly.
It seems he is very familiar with this place.
Zhou Wuyou took Ye Jintang to the inlay room with ease.
Ye Jintang always thought that Master Hu, who had superb craftsmanship, was a white-haired old man.
The result was not what he expected. Master Hu looked to be in his 40s, with wheat-colored skin, a neat buzz cut, and a black earring on his left ear, making him look young and fashionable.
But his face showed a slight tiredness, and there were even some red bloodshot in his eyes. He probably hadn't had a good rest during this period because of this batch of gems.
Master Hu did not stop his work when he saw Zhou Wuyou and Ye Jintang come in. He greeted them with a smile.
"Wait a moment, the Heart of the Ocean will be embedded soon."
"Master Hu, how many all-nighters have you pulled?"
"I'm old now, so I don't dare to stay up all night. I just went to bed a little late these days."
Master Hu moved quickly and the last two diamonds were quickly set.
"This is the most perfect blue diamond I have ever seen, more flawless than the real Heart of the Ocean."
Master Hu picked up a piece of white velvet cloth and gently wiped the Heart of the Ocean, then carefully handed it to Ye Jintang.
When he saw Ye Jintang's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but sigh, "The Heart of the Ocean should be very happy to have a master like Miss Ye."
“It’s beautiful.”
Ye Jintang looked at the Heart of the Ocean in her palm, which was like a pool of deep blue water, and her heart was filled with joy. She had so many jewelries, but there were not many that she really liked. In the future, this Heart of the Ocean would definitely become one of her favorite jewelries.
"Jintang, let me take it for you to see."
"it is good."
Ye Jintang wore a round-neck baby shirt today. Logically speaking, such a collar doesn't match the Heart of the Ocean very well.
But the Heart of the Ocean is so beautiful that no matter what kind of clothes you wear with it, you will be unable to take your eyes off it.
Standing in front of the mirror, Ye Jintang looked at it again and again, and was reluctant to take off the Heart of the Ocean.
"Ms. Ye, can I put the photo of the Heart of the Ocean on my personal website? I want more people who like jewelry to appreciate the beauty of the Heart of the Ocean."
"of course."
Ye Jintang was reluctant to take the Heart of the Ocean and handed it to Master Hu.
It didn't take much effort to take the photos and upload them, and it was done quickly.
Master Hu invited Ye Jintang and Zhou Wuyou to have coffee together.
Under the big umbrella on the terrace, Master Hu took out his tablet computer and handed it to Ye Jintang, allowing him to see the jewelry he had handled over the years.
It is estimated that no woman can resist the temptation of jewelry. Ye Jintang looked through and saved the pictures of the jewelry, and asked Master Hu to help her copy a similar set.
At first, Master Hu could calmly agree to it, but as Ye Jintang saved more and more pictures and the varieties of gems increased, he became a little uneasy.
Zhou Wuyou, who was standing by, took a sip of coffee and said with a smile, "Master Hu, just agree. Jintang will sell all kinds of gemstones by kilogram instead of individual collections."
Top-quality gems are hard to come by, but when it comes to Ye Jintang, they are sold by the pound. Even the knowledgeable Master Hu was surprised.
