Chapter 260 Blue and White Porcelain is More Suitable for You
The next day, I stood in front of the glass display case of the antique shop, my eyes fell on the blue and white porcelain. It was glowing with a gentle luster under the warm yellow light, and a circle of lotus patterns was carved at the mouth of the bottle, so exquisite that it was hard to take my eyes off it.
"Like it? If you like it, buy it."
A deep male voice sounded behind me, and I knew it was Jiang Yichen without turning around. This man had been following me since I entered the store, like a dedicated bodyguard, but with a little more inexplicable intimacy than a bodyguard.
"Hmm." I responded softly, tracing the patterns on the bottle through the glass with my fingertips. "Look at the carving, how delicate it is."
Jiang Yichen took a step forward, his warm breath right beside my ear: "It's really good."
He paused, "But compared to this, I think the pair of blue and white porcelain vases are more suitable for you."
I turned to look at him, but Jiang Yichen held my waist.
"Be careful." His palms were warm and strong. "There's a booth behind."
My face turned red. This person could have warned me, but he insisted on doing it.
"Do you want to go and see the blue and white porcelain?" He let go of her hand, but still kept a close distance.
I nodded and followed him to another exhibition area.
Suddenly, he hugged me from behind.
I quickly said, "The blue and white porcelain vase is indeed beautiful, but we are here to buy the white jade vase."
After saying that, he picked out a piece of white jade porcelain that was most suitable for grandma.
In the end, we not only bought the white jade bottle but also the blue and white porcelain.
"You..." I looked at him in surprise.
"Buy it if you like it." Jiang Yichen took the beautifully packaged gift box and naturally took my hand with his other hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat cake."
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the street. Jiang Yichen was holding a gift box in one hand and holding my hand in the other. He stopped when he passed a dessert shop.
"Wait me a moment."
I stood there, watching his tall figure walk into the store. After a while, he came out carrying an exquisite cake box.
"This is your favorite matcha mousse, honey. Come and eat it." He handed me the cake.
With a gentle look in his eyes, he said, "You need to be this attentive when you choose things for your baby in the future."
I was stunned for a moment, then I realized what he meant, and my face turned red to my ears.
Jiang Yichen chuckled, "Haha." Then he continued to lead me forward.
The setting sun stretched his and my shadows very long, intertwining them together, as if they would never be separated.
After dinner, grandma came into my room and gave me a box.
When he opened it, he saw a jade bracelet broken into two pieces.
She gently stroked the broken part with her fingers, her eyes a little dazed: "This is what your Aunt Lin gave me that year..."
I leaned over to take a look. The jade was smooth and the carving was fine. It was indeed a good thing, except that the fracture was a little uneven.
"Grandma, I know a great jade restorer. How about I take it to him for repair?" I suggested. "Your birthday is coming soon. Once it's repaired, it can be considered a gift from us all to you."
Grandma's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay,
You know this best. But it has to be fixed quickly, I want to wear it to see Lao Song, she recently returned to China, she said she wanted to meet with her old classmates. "
I agreed with a smile, but I was a little confused. Grandma's old classmate? Why haven't I heard her mention it before?
The next morning, I took the jade bracelet to Master Chen's studio.
Jiang Yichen insisted on following me, saying that he was worried that I would have a strong reaction in the early stages of pregnancy and it would be unsafe for me to be alone.
"I'm not a porcelain doll," I looked at him helplessly, "You're so clingy, are you going to ignore the company's affairs?"
He bent down and kissed me on the forehead, his tone gentle: "Company matters are not as important as you."
Afterwards, I let Jiang Yichen take care of his own business.
When Master Chen arrived at the antique repair shop, he carefully examined the jade bracelet, but his brows were getting tighter and tighter.
"This jade..." He pushed his glasses, "There's something wrong with it."
My heart tightened: "What's the problem?"
"This is not real Hetian jade," Master Chen pointed to the fracture. "Look here, the texture is loose and the color is wrong. Although the workmanship is fine, the material is fake."
I was stunned. The jade bracelet that grandma cherished so much turned out to be fake?
I didn’t think much about it at the moment, now I still need to see how the studio is doing.
I turned on my computer and logged into my email, and sure enough, I saw the file Jiang Yichen had sent me. It contained some transaction records and chat screenshots, vaguely pointing to the Jin family, but the evidence was not sufficient.
"How are things going at the company?"
"We found some clues. The Jin family has been doing something behind our backs lately, maliciously tampering with our sales data and using short video platforms to spread rumors that our product quality is problematic."
I frowned: "Isn't it enough to suppress the stock price for so long??"
"Yes," he nodded, "the company's stock has been falling in the past two days. They should be trying to take advantage of the opportunity to acquire it at a low price."
My heart tightened: "What should I do then?"
"Don't worry, I've figured out a way."
He sent me a video. In the video was a popular blogger who was lashing out at our company's products, with the comments section filled with insults.
"This blogger," Jiang Yichen pointed at the screen, "was hired by the Jin family. I have asked someone to check their transaction records.
My eyes lit up: "You want to..."
"Yes,"
"When they are causing the most trouble, we will release the evidence. However, we still need to continue collecting evidence."
I couldn't help but laugh: "That's a cruel trick of yours."
"Thanks to you for discovering these loopholes so quickly, wife, you are the smartest."
I replied with the emoticon and continued to do my own thing.
I opened the stock software and entered the code of Jiang Yichen's company. A string of numbers popped up on the screen. Sure enough, the stock price continued to fall, and the comment area was filled with wailing.
"This drop..." I frowned and tapped my fingers quickly on the keyboard to call up the K-line chart of the past month.
Sure enough, since last week, the stock price has been falling, but the trading volume has increased abnormally. I stared at the screen, feeling a little uneasy. The Jin family's move this time was even more ruthless than I thought.
Just as I was thinking about it, my cell phone rang. It was Xu Sisi calling.
She sounded a little excited. "The testing of the smart analysis tool webpage has been completed and it can be launched at any time!"
I breathed a sigh of relief: "Great. Has all the data been uploaded?"
Xu Sisi said: "It can analyze the authenticity and cost-effectiveness of products in real time, and the consumer feedback is very good!"
I smiled and said, "Well done. By the way, have you found out anything about those rumors online recently?"
"Yes," Xu Sisi's tone became serious, "We tracked down several accounts and found that they were all operating in the same IP segment. Someone must have deliberately controlled them."
I narrowed my eyes and said, "Collect the evidence and send it to my email."
A few days later, the jade bracelet was repaired.
