Chapter 387
“I called you, but you didn’t pick up. I thought something happened to you. So, I thought of coming to auntie’s place to see if I could contact you. I didn’t expect you to actually come back.”
As she spoke, she took a few steps closer to him, wanting to hold his hand.
“You’re back, why didn’t you come to find me? you made me so worried, Yingluo, ” she pouted and complained.
Wen Muchu took a few steps back to avoid her touch.
Lan Xiao frowned and stopped in his tracks.
“What’s wrong with you?”
nothing, ” he replied lightly.
His attitude was cold and distant, so cold that Lan Xiao’s heart trembled unconsciously.
She couldn’t understand what had happened. Why did his attitude towards her change so drastically?
Just then, Wen Cheng’s voice came from inside the house.
“Bro, who’s here? Hurry up and eat, sister yingxue is waiting for you, Yingluo.”
Lan Xiao and Wen Muchu fell into a moment of silence.
Wen Cheng did not get a reply. She kicked her slippers and ran over.
When she walked closer and saw that it was Lan Xiao at the door, her smiling face slowly sank.
“So it’s you, Yingluo.”
Whether it was intentional or not, when Wen Cheng spoke, she pulled the door open slightly.
Lan Xiao raised his head slightly and saw su yingxue, who was busy serving food in the dining room.
Su yingxue looked up and met Lan Xiao’s eyes. She curled her lips and smiled provocatively at Lan Xiao.
Lan Xiao felt a faint pain in his heart.
She pursed her lips, blinked her eyes and turned to look at Wen Muchu.
“Since you’re about to have your meal, I won’t disturb you if there’s nothing else.”
After Lan Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
From time to time, Wen Cheng’s hypocritical voice could be heard from behind, ” “Lan Xiao, why don’t you stay and have a meal with us? sister yingxue’s dishes are delicious. She’s a young miss who usually doesn’t do anything but cook for my brother. You really can’t compare to her in this aspect.”
Lan Xiao’s lips curled up slightly and he laughed at himself.
That’s right, she didn’t know anything and she didn’t do anything for Wen Muchu.
In her previous life, she still owed Wen Muchu her life. So, why should she let Wen Muchu’s fate be tied with hers in this life?
Su yingxue loved him so much, and he didn’t reject her. Why did she have to get between them and embarrass him?
No wonder he didn’t look for her when he came back. He was so cold to her this time.
So, she had unknowingly been pushed out of Wen Muchu’s heart?
If he didn’t like her, he could have just told her. Why did he have to treat her with such a cold attitude?
Lan Xiao clenched his fists and endured the pain in his heart. He ran out of the luanyu Residence Apartment area without looking back.
He stood by the roadside in a daze and walked aimlessly.
Her eyes were filled with confusion and emptiness. She didn’t know what she was going to do next or where she was going.
She looked up at the gradually darkening night sky. At this moment, she suddenly felt very lonely.
That feeling of loneliness and emptiness filled her entire body.
Just then, her phone rang.
She picked up the phone and answered the call.
“Hello, Yingluo.”
“Miss LAN? “Our shop will be open for business tomorrow, but there’s a little accident with a batch of Jade.” Old he’s voice was a little anxious from the other end of the phone.
Lan Xiao forced himself to be more alert,”I’ll rush over to see Yingluo immediately.”
After she hung up, she immediately called a taxi and left.
Lan Xiao didn’t turn back at all. If she did, she would definitely see Wen Muchu following behind her.
Wen Muchu’s eyes were filled with worry as he looked in the direction she left. Without thinking, he immediately stretched out his hand to hail a taxi and chased after Lan Xiao’s car.
Lan Xiao arrived at the blue jade jewelry store. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw old he waiting for her at the door with an anxious expression.
“Miss LAN, you’ve finally come. Here’s the thing, I bought a batch of Jade from the Shang family. The types are ice-type, ice-glutinous, glutinous-type, and so on. Originally, they were supposed to deliver the goods today, so we asked master to use tonight and tomorrow’s time to drive out the jewelry. I’ve been waiting for them for the whole day, but they didn’t send any raw stones to me. So, I called them, but they said that the goods were bought at ten times the price.”
“Miss LAN, most of the Jade jewelry in our store is of these types. Not only were the jewelries from these categories beautiful, but they were also of medium price. Most rich families could afford them and wear them. If our store doesn’t have these types, then what are we going to buy when we open the day after tomorrow? Do you want to buy the low-level Jade or sell the high-level Jade you cut out?”
“Rich people don’t care about the low-grade Jade, but if it’s a top-grade Jade, they’ll think that it’s a gift. They don’t have to buy such an expensive one. If we don’t have these medium-grade jades that are suitable for ordinary people, we might not be able to make a Big Shot. This store that doesn’t have any goods to sell will definitely not be able to open. If it does, it will lose money.”
The two of them talked as they walked into the shop.
Tiger and the bald man were also waiting in the shop. When they saw Lan Xiao come in, they bowed and greeted him with great respect.
Lan Xiao nodded indifferently and told them to do other things.
The two of them quickly agreed and took their brothers for a stroll nearby.
Lan Xiao walked around the shop.
He secretly observed the interior design of the store. To be honest, the decoration style of blue jade jewelry was quite high-end.
Compared to the SU family’s jewelry, it was of a much higher grade.
Lan Xiao was very satisfied and had complete trust in old he’s ability.
She pondered for a while before asking old he, ” “Call the shop and ask if they have any lower-grade Jade Pixiu.”
Old he was taken aback and looked at Lan Xiao in confusion. “Ms. LAN, the lowest type of Jade is the egg white type, bean type, and green oil type. Those rich people really don’t like jewelry made from this kind of Jade.”
Lan Xiao muttered to himself for a while, and a light flashed in his eyes.
She remembered that the handsome system had once said that the second level of the special ability was related to the purification of Jade impurities.
What if ... What if she used her special ability to purify the Jade and improve the grade of the Jade?
She quickly asked the system in her heart,”handsome system, there’s a Jade purification function in the special ability, right?”
[ sure, but there are conditions. ]
