She watched as the sales clerk took the jewelry box out of the display window and carefully placed it on a black velvet tray for her to inspect.
Seeing that Ye Li was staring at the "Green Waist" the whole time, Chen Qiyue asked, "Miss Ye really likes the Green Waist?"
Who doesn't like beautiful things?
Ye Li nodded honestly, "I like it, but..." but not to the point that I absolutely must have it.
"If Miss Ye likes it, I can give it to you!"
Chen Qiyue interrupted Ye Li, "I heard you have L's Silver Frost. If Miss Ye is willing, I'll trade you my Green Waist for it, how about that?"
Ye Li was taken aback.
Silver Frost is a limited edition clutch from L'Oréal.
The bag is made of silver-white crocodile skin, and its edges are inlaid with 1,900 diamonds, which are said to weigh 50 carats.
Whether it's the design of the handbags or the renowned reputation of master craftsman Daniel, Silver Frost gained international acclaim even before its release.
Unfortunately, that handbag is only available to L's most exclusive VIPs for custom orders.
There was only one in the country, and after changing hands several times, it ended up in the hands of Ye Li, who was then the eldest daughter of the Ye family.
The Ye family went bankrupt, and Ye Li listed Yinshuang on both her WeChat Moments and a private boutique. In just one night, it was bought for 3 million yuan.
When Chen Qiyue found out, the bag that was originally certain to be hers had been bought back at a high price and returned to the Ye family villa.
Not only that, the Ye family's villas, cars, and even the jewelry, accessories, and bags that Ye Li sold... are all said to have been taken back.
As a result, rumors have been circulating in the industry that Ye Li has hooked up with a mysterious big shot.
She had been trying to contact Ye Li and ask her to give up Yin Shuang to her, but the two of them had no connection.
Unexpectedly, I ran into him at Forever today.
"You offered 3 million for Silver Frost, and this Green Waist set is 3.5 million. I won't ask for the extra 500,000. Consider it making friends, how about it?"
Chen Qiyue asked.
Ye Li blinked, a smile appearing on her face. "Miss Chen, your plan is far too ambitious, isn't it?"
Startled, the smile in Chen Qiyue's eyes vanished instantly.
Ye Li said softly, "I don't blame you for not recognizing its value. After all, the number of Silver Frost products worldwide is in the single digits. Few people have even heard of it, let alone seen it. But do you know what the price of Silver Frost is now?"
"Starting from 8 million."
Before Chen Qiyue could speak, Ye Li answered her own question, "I listed it for 3 million because I was desperate and needed money urgently. But now, I have no intention of selling it! I'm sorry..."
After saying that, Ye Li turned around and prepared to walk to the other side.
Chen Qiyue's cold laughter rang out from behind, "Ye Li, you don't really think that just because you've hooked up with a big shot and someone's protecting you, you can do whatever you want without fear, do you?"
Even the powerful Ye family couldn't protect you; they sold off bags worth millions and houses worth tens of millions just like that.
A man who was attracted to your face and your beautiful body is now spoiling you and taking back everything you've lost.
But who knows, one day they might get tired of you and just throw you aside.
Do you really think that once you take it back, it's yours?
Nothing feels more secure than money held in your own hands.
Understanding the unspoken sarcasm in Chen Qiyue's eyes, Ye Li remained aloof and said in a calm tone, "Sorry, no exchange, and no sale!"
"Ye Li, don't push your luck!"
Fang Zixuan called out from the side.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a deathly silence all around him.
It was as if the central air conditioning in the mall had been turned on, with high-powered refrigeration units spewing out extremely cold air, and a chilling, oppressive atmosphere swept in from all directions.
