Chapter 13 Purple Diamond
Yu Yin took off his glasses and put them aside casually.
She preferred him without his glasses. One of the main reasons was that it affected his vision. He couldn't see things clearly, and his eyes became softer. The aggression of his eyes decreased, making them even more attractive...
Yu Yin was wondering if this “working robot” would only accept that instruction today?
Her aggressiveness in this area showed no sign of abating, and she was about to be defeated.
"Work robot" was the nickname she gave Zhao Shunian privately.
Yu Yin always forgot the pain after the wound healed with Zhao Shunian. Just one month later, she forgot what kind of person he was. She sat on his lap and asked him to put on her wedding ring. She was completely throwing herself into his arms and walking into a trap.
Zhao Shunian's actions made Yu Yin feel that she was on the verge of losing control. Only by holding his neck tightly could she make sure that she was not drifting aimlessly.
Every time she did this with Zhao Shunian, Yu Yin enjoyed it and was happy, but she always felt exhausted and exhausted, trapped in a conflicted state of both liking and disliking it, because not only did she want to enjoy it, he also wanted to enjoy it, and he preferred to enjoy it to the fullest...
Yu Yin regained consciousness in a daze, reached out from under the quilt to feel for her cell phone on the bedside table, but she couldn't find it. She had to open her eyes, sit up, and look around the bedroom for her cell phone.
Last night she casually threw her phone on the bay window sill and went to look for her ring, and then she never touched her phone again.
Yu Yin slowly got out of bed, wearing only a suspender nightgown. Her skin exposed to the air still had some ambiguous traces on it. She stepped on the soft carpet and went to the cloakroom to find a coat to wear.
The cloakroom has three doors: one leading to the corridor, another to the bedroom, and the last to the bathroom. When the person inside closes one door, the other two also remain closed, preventing outsiders from opening them. This space is primarily used by Yu Yin; Zhao Shunian's cloakroom is elsewhere.
The silk blouse Yu Yin had been wearing last night was scattered on the floor and was now missing. Knowing Zhao Shunian's character, she knew he must have seen it when he got up and picked it up and tossed it into the laundry basket.
He could tolerate the mess for a while, but not for long. He assumed that the coat that fell to the ground was dirty and could no longer be worn. Who knows, the coat might have been washed by now.
Yu Yin picked up her phone from the bay window and saw that it was a little after ten in the morning. She'd arrived at the exhibition venue in the afternoon. She felt that Zhao Shunian's presence at home was disrupting her daily routine.
Fortunately, she was often late for work, and the people in the studio knew her habit and found a reason for her that whatever time the boss went to work was reasonable.
If she was used to being at work on time, and she suddenly started coming in late more frequently, they might not notice anything at first, but after working together for a long time, they would easily notice some clues. Yu Yin believed that she was still too thin-skinned in this regard.
………
The weather in January was quite cold, so Yu Yin wore a high-necked kid cashmere sweater and a double-faced cashmere coat. Many sheep contributed their wool to protect her, and only then did she feel at ease to go out.
In fact, she grew up in the south and was more adaptable to the climate of Hong Kong City and liked the weather there more, but she didn't like the people and things there. She didn't like the climate of the capital very much, but she liked the free life here.
In the afternoon, Yu Yin came to the exhibition venue. Mo Qianyao did not come here today. She went to deal with other work. After the conversation yesterday, she felt that Miss Hong no longer had the value she needed, so she did not waste any more time on Miss Hong.
Miss Hong and Mr. Lang came over again to check on the progress. They both attached great importance to this exhibition, or to be more precise, it was Mr. Lang who attached great importance to it.
Mr. Lang doesn't drink coffee, so Xiang Yue asked his subordinates to make two cups of tea for him and Miss Hong.
With Mr. Lang around, Miss Hong no longer drinks coffee.
Miss Hong didn't see Mo Qianyao and asked why she was not there.
"Something happened in the studio and she needs to handle it there. If she knew that you, Miss Hong, are thinking about her, she will definitely be very happy." Yu Yin stroked the hair by her ear while speaking.
Ms. Hong smiled and said, "I also think I can get along well with her."
Mr. Lang also noticed that Yu Yin was married because of the ring on her ring finger. He hadn't noticed it for a moment. He had a taboo: he would never get involved with a married woman, regardless of whether she was divorced or single.
Because this precaution was effective, Miss Hong did not tell Mr. Lang about their conversation yesterday.
Ms. Hong also noticed the ring on Yu Yin's hand. She suddenly held her hand, stared at her ring and asked, "Is the purple diamond in the ring a synthetic or natural one?"
"Natural." Yu Yin was almost frightened by Miss Hong's sudden disrespectful behavior and quietly withdrew her hand. She just wanted Mr. Lang to find out that she was married, but she didn't expect Miss Hong to react so strongly.
Yu Yin's ring is a simple platinum diamond ring. The natural, pure purple diamond weighs approximately 1.2 carats and is set in a bezel setting, making the diamond less noticeable. Zhao Shunian's men's ring is even simpler, with a plain band. Others might think he's austere.
A hint of envy crossed Ms. Hong's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it. She wanted to maintain her dignified image in front of them, so she spoke condescendingly, "Purple diamonds are indeed extremely rare, but yours is at most one carat, which is only worth a few hundred thousand dollars. I've seen purple diamonds of several carats, and each carat costs over three million. Diamonds with smaller carats are priced several times lower, so they're not that valuable."
Xiang Yue secretly thought that Miss Hong was so arrogant, she talked about tens of millions of US dollars as if they were just a few dozen yuan.
Mr. Lang thought that he preferred Miss Hong to be quieter and more likable when she didn't talk. The more she talked, the faster his feelings for her faded.
Unfortunately, Miss Hong did not realize this. She thought Mr. Lang was still immersed in her charm and unable to extricate himself.
Mr. Lang also knew where she had seen a purple diamond. He once took her to an auction, and she had fallen for a purple diamond worth over ten million dollars. The diamond was about three carats. She had always wanted a purple diamond, but he would not grant her this wish...
Yu Yin didn't show any offense. "You are really knowledgeable. Not only do you have unique insights into the relationship between men and women, but you also understand diamonds."
Miss Hong instantly recalled the wrong words she had said yesterday afternoon. She absolutely did not want Mr. Lang to know that she disliked his age and that she still didn't want to break up. She immediately quieted down to avoid being exposed.
Mr. Lang glanced between Miss Hong and Yu Yin. They must have talked about some topics between men and women that he couldn't listen to. But it didn't matter. He would find out after he got back by asking her a few questions.
After a brief rest and chat, they talked about tomorrow's affairs. Mr. Lang knew that Yu Yin was married, so he stopped talking in ambiguous terms.
………
On the opening day, Mr. Lang was giving his opening speech. He was well-known among collectors, and many people came to his exhibition and listened attentively to his speech.
Xiao Zeng, the intern who served coffee to Yu Yin, encountered a problem at the check-in counter. A lady without an invitation wanted to participate in the ancient coin collection exhibition.
Xiao Zeng said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Lu, we operate by invitation only. You can't come in without an invitation. I hope you can understand."
Ms. Lu was unmoved. "I know Lang Heng. No one will blame you if you let me in. But if you keep me out, you'll probably be blamed."
Xiao Zeng was in a dilemma. It was speech time, and he couldn't find anyone to make a decision. He used all his skills, and together with the security guards, he struggled to deal with Ms. Lu for a while. Finally, his colleagues in the studio sent a message saying that the speech was over.
At this time, Yu Yin, who was in the exhibition area, saw Xiao Zeng's message. She walked towards Mr. Lang, who was surrounded by others, and waited until he finished chatting with others. Then she said, "Mr. Lang, there's a Ms. Lu outside who wants to see you. She must see you."
