So, did Young Master Yan come here specifically to warn him?
But the key point is that Zhu Qianying didn't drink a single drop of alcohol at that time, did she?
But how could Boss Qian dare to say such a thing? If he did, wouldn't he be courting death?
He chuckled a few times, "Young Master Yan is joking. If Young Master Yan's wife doesn't want to drink, naturally no one will dare to force her."
Young Master Yan, however, didn't give him any face, saying, "That's not necessarily true!"
After being rebuffed, Boss Qian dared not say anything more and could only cautiously accompany Young Master Yan and Zhu Qianying into the processing plant.
Young Master Yan knew nothing about jewelry, and he was completely unaware of which diamonds were valuable and which were cheap.
So, while Boss Qian was walking around promoting how exquisite his processing plant's technology and craftsmanship was and how dedicated his artisans were, Young Master Yan's mind was entirely on Zizai.
"Young Master Yan, do you have any suggestions or recommendations for my processing plant?"
After boasting for a while, Boss Qian humbly asked Young Master Yan for advice.
Yan Shao stated that he has always been a straightforward guy and never beats around the bush.
"Mr. Qian, I know nothing about this, so I have no constructive suggestions or advice."
But Boss Qian was used to seeing a lot of pretentious people, so when he heard Young Master Yan being so frank, he didn't believe it.
She assumed he was still holding a grudge about her toasting Zhu Qianying, which was why he was putting on airs and giving her a hard time.
Upon realizing this, Mr. Qian's face immediately turned pale with fear.
Seeing that Boss Qian was restless, Zhu Qianying quickly came to his rescue.
"Mr. Qian, he really doesn't understand. Asking him won't help."
Compared to those who pretend to know what they don't, Zhu Qianying appreciates Yan Shao's frankness in admitting what he doesn't know.
Even if Mr. Qian didn't believe it, he didn't dare to say anything more.
Fortunately, Zhu Qianying quickly steered the conversation to jewelry, saving Mr. Qian from further embarrassment.
The pair of rings designed by Zhu Qianying for Chen Jing and Luo Yifan were finally completed by a senior craftsman working overtime, just over an hour before Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao arrived at the workshop.
Zhu Qianying held the pair of flawless rings, admiring them dearly.
This Mr. Qian is a bit snobbish, but it has to be said that the production and processing techniques of his workshop are truly impeccable.
In fact, its craftsmanship is even more exquisite and perfect than that of the products manufactured by Cheng Ye in the processing plant in Country M.
"Mr. Qian, I'm very satisfied with the ring. Thank you for your hard work!"
Zhu Qianying carefully put the ring into her bag, then took out a pre-prepared check and handed it to Boss Qian.
Mr. Qian repeatedly declined, saying, "Mrs. Yan, this is a small matter. Paying processing fees would be too much of a hassle!"
Seeing this, Yan Shao snatched the check from Zhu Qianying's hand and forced it into Boss Qian's hand.
"They were originally outsiders!"
After hearing this, Zhu Qianying could only silently light a row of candles for Boss Qian.
"Mr. Qian, if you don't take the money, I won't dare to come to you for processing any of my products in the future." Zhu Qianying had no choice but to quickly offer Mr. Qian a way out.
Having been thoroughly hurt by Yan Shao's frankness, Boss Qian dared not make excuses anymore and quickly took the opportunity offered by Zhu Qianying to back down.
"Alright then, I'll accept it. Please remember to take care of me in the future, Mrs. Yan."
Afterwards, Boss Qian invited the two of them to dinner, but Yan Shao refused without hesitation, saying, "No need, my grandparents saved some food for me."
Mr. Qian dared not insist on keeping them any longer. He carefully helped the two into the car and watched it drive away before letting out a long sigh of relief.
In the car, Zhu Qianying looked at the ring she had just taken out again and again, liking it more and more each time she looked at it. "Hmm, the craftsmanship is really amazing."
Yan Shao also came over to take a closer look, "I think the design is great, but the craftsmanship is just average."
Zhu Qianying nudged his chest with her elbow, "Of course, the craftsmanship must be superb to showcase the essence of my design."
Yan Shao snorted, "I don't understand. Anyway, I think this ring is beautiful just by looking at the blueprints. It doesn't matter whether it's made or not!"
Deep down, Yan Shao always had a little thorn in his side, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
Zhu Qianying was too lazy to argue with him, so she took the ring back and examined it carefully.
Zhu Qianying was looking at the ring, but Yan Shao was looking at her fair and slender fingers.
"Ying'er, I see a lot of designers like to wear jewelry all over their bodies and hands, why don't you wear anything?"
Young Master Yan asked this question with a purpose, of course.
Whether Zhu Qianying didn't understand his implied meaning or was pretending to be naive, her gaze remained focused on the ring, and she responded to him indifferently.
"dislike……"
"Why don't you like it?" Yan Shao also became persistent.
Zhu Qianying finally raised her head and glanced at him indifferently, "If you don't like it, you just don't like it. Why so many questions?"
Having come this far, Young Master Yan naturally couldn't press the matter any further.
...
The Yan family of five stayed at their ancestral home in Beijing for two days and two nights. On Sunday afternoon, they bid farewell to the Yan family and flew back to L City on a private plane, where they went directly back to the Yan family home.
The family's life seemed to have returned to its usual tranquility.
But this calm is only superficial.
Indeed, after Yan Shao returned to L City, he frequently exchanged information with the police station, while Ke Kai secretly dispatched many people to closely monitor the every move of the suspects.
Zizai remained at home. After obtaining Zizai's consent, Zhu Qianying found him a tutor who would only teach him subjects that interested him.
As for the basic courses in school, Zhu Qianying felt that Zizai could manage on his own, given his level.
With Yanbo and his wife by his side at home, and some classes interspersed throughout, Zizai's days became quite fulfilling.
With Zhu Qianying no longer needing to look after Zizai all day, she was able to free herself up to focus on her studio.
For several days after returning from the capital, Zhu Qianying went back to Yanhuang with Yan Shao every morning to discuss and finalize the design with the designers from the design company. By Wednesday, after consultation between the two parties, a decoration plan that was satisfactory and reasonable to both sides was officially finalized.
Once the plan was finalized, the design and decoration company began preparing materials to be ready for on-site construction.
Regarding the matter of supervising the renovation process, Yan Shao's opinion was, "I'm here, you don't need to run around every day, so she can save more time to design the project."
Zhu Qianying, however, wanted to do everything herself, after all, this was the first personal studio she had always dreamed of owning.
"If you go to work, I'll go to work with you, occasionally go down to check on the progress, and then go back to your office to do my own things. Isn't that good enough?"
Yan Shao was speechless at Zhu Qianying's persistence.
