Chapter 144 What exactly made her so arrogant?



When Ye Li walked into Forever, there were only a few guests in the lobby.

A man and a woman, judging by their age, seemed to be a newlywed couple preparing for marriage.

The other two girls seemed to be best friends.

Behind the counter, sales clerks in black uniforms and white gloves took out the jewelry selected by the customers and let them try it on.

Thinking that Fu Yanci hadn't arrived yet, Ye Li went straight to the private customization counter to admire the latest works from Forever's design masters.

Masterpiece, extraordinary.

After several days of high fever, my mind was somewhat muddled, like a pitch-black night sky. But after seeing the artwork in the shop window, it was illuminated by one brilliant star after another.

When she heard laughter, Ye Li was staring intently at a set of jewelry.

A bracelet adorned with dark green gemstones.

The same necklace and earrings.

At first glance, it's as if you can see a beautiful woman from Jiangnan wearing a light green cheongsam, walking along the West Lake with a plain white oil-paper umbrella.

The umbrella was pulled low, obscuring the beautiful woman's face; only a glimpse of her fair chin and a sliver of green dangling from her wrist as she held the umbrella were visible.

Profound and elegant.

Just like this dark green bracelet in the shop window.

"That's why they say things change every thirty years, Ye Li. Now you can only watch."

"That's right... But Ye Li, I really admire you. If my family went bankrupt, I wouldn't have the courage to come into Forever to admire their jewelry."

The word "appreciate" was said with particular deliberation, as if the speaker was certain that Ye Li couldn't afford it.

Ye Li turned around and saw two internet celebrity faces with bright smiles.

She vaguely remembered the girl in the white mink coat; her name seemed to be Fang Zixuan. She was a minor celebrity in Zhou Hechen's company. Unfortunately, despite spending a lot of money to promote her, she failed to make a splash and only stayed on the trending topics list for a while before fading into obscurity.

I once attended a party in the presidential suite on the top floor of a building, and the other party spoke in a sarcastic and insinuating manner.

Just by looking at the expressions of the people around her, it was clear that Fang Zixuan liked Zhou Hechen. It was just a pity that Zhou Hechen had a fiancée, and the Ye family and the Zhou family were a good match, so she could only make a few sarcastic remarks to vent her frustration.

The other one is Chen Qiyue, the daughter of the wealthy Chen family.

Rumors are circulating in the industry that the Qin and Chen families are planning a marriage alliance, with the proposed partners being Chen Qiyue and Qin Yucheng, the eldest son of the Qin family.

Because of this, whenever they met at a high-society banquet, Chen Qiyue would always subtly or overtly criticize Qin Chu, as if this would make Qin Yuchen look at her differently.

"Is Ms. Fang the owner of Forever?"

Ye Li slowly straightened up and asked.

Fang Zixuan was taken aback, a fleeting look of embarrassment in her eyes, "No."

"Then, are they shareholders?"

No, not exactly.

"That's strange..."

Ye Li looked completely bewildered. "Even the Forever sales clerk didn't say I couldn't enjoy it here. You're neither the owner nor a shareholder, so what's it to you?"

"you……"

Fang Zixuan's face darkened. She glared at Ye Li's face, wishing she could pounce on her and scratch it raw. "Ye Li, I was respectful to you before because of Young Master Zhou. Now that you're no longer Mrs. Zhou or Miss Ye, what are you so arrogant about?"

Ye Li: ...

Can anyone tell her what exactly made her act so arrogant?

Too lazy to deal with someone who couldn't speak properly, Ye Li turned around and continued looking at the jewelry set she hadn't yet examined in detail.

Behind her, Chen Qiyue patted Fang Zixuan's hand to signal her to calm down, then glanced at the sales clerk standing next to Ye Li, "Pack that 'green waist' outfit for me."

"Okay, please wait a moment..."

The sales clerk nodded and opened the display window, taking out the set of dark green jewelry that Ye Li was examining closely.

Ye Li's eyes lit up.

Green waist.

That's a really good name!

Turning back, Ye Li met Chen Qiyue's smug eyes.
