Ao Li and his surgeon arrived at the appointed time of 1 p.m.
The doorbell rang, Shui Yiyao looked through the peephole and saw it was Ao Li.
She opened the door: "Mr. Ao, please come in."
She had just turned off her jade carving machine, but the faucet above the machine was still dripping water slowly and could not stop for the time being.
Ao Li noticed it when he came in, and then looked at Shui Yiyao's hand. Sure enough, she was still wearing Shuize's hand. So he raised his eyes and asked, "Are you working?"
Shui Yiyao nodded and smiled helplessly: "We are on deadline, otherwise I wouldn't bother you to come."
"Xiaobei, come out. There are guests." Shui Yiyao shouted towards the bedroom.
She had already told Xiao Bei after contacting Ao Li.
Xiaobei responded and ran out.
She looked at Ao Li, then at the surgeon behind Ao Li, and greeted them both.
Shui Yiyao: "It's too small here. Can you guys just sit on the sofa?"
"If not, I'll clean up and go to the bedroom."
The surgeon placed the medical kit on the coffee table. "No, just glue the chip in place and do some basic checks. It'll be done in about fifteen minutes."
Shui Yiyao nodded: "Okay, then I'll continue working... Will it disturb you?"
She went to the water dispenser to make some tea, giving a cup to Ao Li and the surgeon.
Surgeon: "No, it's up to you."
Shui Yiyao: "Okay, call me anytime if you need anything."
The surgeon took Xiaobei to the sofa for a physical examination.
Ao Li was also at the sofa, he was mainly there for monitoring.
He lowered his eyes to look at the teacup in front of him on the coffee table.
This was the tea Shui Yiyao had just brewed for him. It was still steaming, the soup golden in color, the tea leaves at the bottom adorned with light golden fuzz. This was Jin Jun Mei, and he also drank it, not because it was so delicious, but because it was the most refreshing.
This is the tea with the highest caffeine content.
He raised his eyes and looked at Shui Yiyao again.
She said hello and went to the workbench to continue working. There was a cup of hot tea next to her. It was a glass cup, so you could see that the tea that Shui Yiyao brewed herself was rich in color, reaching an overly rosy hue.
It was no weaker than the strong tea he brewed when working late at night. Drinking such a strong tea on a daily basis was an exaggeration. Usually, only people who work late at night for a long time would drink such strong tea.
Drinking tea that is too strong is actually not good for your health. Little Jiang Luo would often check his teacup and if it was too strong, he would make it a lighter one.
Shui Yiyao, it seems like no one is helping to watch over her.
Ao Li looked at Xiao Bei who was undergoing a physical examination next to him and mentioned, "The tea is delicious, with just the right amount of strength."
Shui Yiyao heard it and casually replied, "It's okay."
Ao Li: "If it's any more concentrated, it will put a strain on the kidneys."
Shui Yiyao carved the crystal crown on her hand and didn't care much: "Really?"
"A bit stronger?" Xiao Bei suddenly frowned and looked at Shui Yiyao's cup. "Is it like the one the princess makes?"
Ao Li deliberately looked towards Shui Yiyao's cup, then said seriously, "Her cup is eight points too strong."
Shui Yiyao paused and looked towards Ao Li in disbelief: "How can it be so exaggerated?"
Ao Li just drank tea silently without saying a word.
Shui Yiyao looked towards Xiaobei.
Explanation: “It’s not that exaggerated.”
Xiao Bei didn't listen to Shui Yiyao. He just looked at Shui Yiyao's water cup, frowned, and pursed his lips into a line. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Shui Yiyao took a sip of tea to calm her nerves. Why did she feel like Ao Li was doing this on purpose? He didn't even notice how strong the smell of his unseemly chemical was. It was getting stronger and stronger, and it wasn't doing him any good. And yet, he had the nerve to criticize someone else's cup of decent tea for being too strong.
Ao Li: "If you don't control yourself, your tea will only get stronger the more you drink it."
That’s...true.
Shui Yiyao looked at her tea.
It was indeed too strong, but she was used to it a long time ago.
When grandpa was alive, he liked to drink strong tea, but grandpa would control her and not let her drink it.
Later, when she was fifteen, her grandfather passed away, and she became the only heir to the finger knife jade carving business. She was under a lot of pressure during that period, and the tea she drank became stronger and stronger.
However... refreshing her mind was indeed helpful. Her skills improved rapidly during that period when she only slept two or three hours a day.
Otherwise, how can success come easily?
If you want something, you have to pay for it. What's the big deal about drinking some strong tea?
Ao Li: "There's absolutely no need to drink something so strong when you don't need to be refreshed."
Shui Yiyao: “…”
Ao Li: "For example, now."
Shui Yiyao: "...You sound like someone who only cares about health by soaking goji berries in a thermos."
Ao Li: “…”
Shui Yiyao: "Look at the dark circles under your eyes. You must have stayed up late a lot." She pretended to be a serious person.
Ao Li: “…”
Dark circles? Are they noticeable?
Xiao Bei, who was watching the fun, looked up at the Black Dragon leader standing beside the sofa. Yes, there was indeed a light layer of blue-gray at the corners of his eyes. But it was not obvious, and she had not noticed it before.
However, she didn't care whether the Black Dragon Leader stayed up late or not! She would go check if drinking strong tea was really bad. If it was, then she would have to persuade the princess. Her health was the most important thing. At worst, she could drink strong tea when she needed a boost, and drink lighter tea when she didn't.
The chip bonding took fifteen minutes. The surgeon gave Xiaobei a bottle of adhesive, told her precautions and instructions for using the chip, and then everything was over.
Ao Li put down the teacup and drank all the tea in it.
"When are you going to the teaching class? I have a car and can take you there directly. I've also asked someone to send Jiang Luo over."
It's 1:20 now and they start class at 2:00.
Shui Yiyao usually goes out at 1:30, and it's about the same now.
"Okay, that's troublesome."

Three days later, the Jade Friends Meeting was held as scheduled, and Shui Yiyao prepared to attend.
She now had a little more time because she had just paid for Bai Gege's crystal crown.
Bai Gege was very satisfied.
-Bai Gege: Excellent indeed.
-Chengdao Jade Carving: Not bad.
-Bai Gege: Uncle Ao has really good taste.
-Chengdao Jade Carving: What does he have to do with it?
Bai Gege: Didn't you read Weibo? He praised you. I retweeted it, hehe.
Weibo?
Shui Yiyao found Ao Li's Weibo. His latest update was three days ago, the day he came to Xiaobei's house to glue the chip.
Ao Li: Excellent. [Picture]
Just two words and a picture.
The picture shows a close-up of a pair of hands holding a piece of material. It's not the material she made for Bai Gege, but one she had already finished. It looks like a screenshot from her livestream.
Is Ao Li still watching her live broadcast?
Netizens were also confused and asked Ao Li if he was watching Shui Yiyao’s live broadcast.
But Ao Li probably didn't read the comments and didn't reply to any of them.
However, this does not affect the imagination of netizens.
-A Narcissus: Mr. Ao is probably peeking into his childhood sweetheart’s live broadcast room. He must be thinking in his heart: I want to see what is more important than me.
-A Narcissus: After reading this, Mr. Ao’s inner thoughts: His heart is with the jade carving, not with me, sob.
-A Narcissus: Mr. Ao continued his inner thoughts: She is really strong. She is worthy of being my fiancée.
-A Narcissus: Mr. Ao’s inner thoughts: She is so outstanding, when will she be able to see me?
Netizens serialized jokes in the comment section, and a group of people were yelling and saying how addicted they were, saying how good it was.
Shui Yiyao: ...
Even if she is not the person involved, she can still support it. Apart from anything else, the domineering president's sobbing is really touching.
But, it was impossible for Ao Li to just cry.
Bai Gege also forwarded it, and that post was also quite popular.
Bai Gege: She's truly outstanding! I love her! //@Ao Li: Excellent. [Image] - Hu Dede: I'll confess my feelings too. I'll always love Yu Yu's carvings. I love her thin carvings.
-Brother Yuan: Obviously, this pair is more attractive. This is a direct confession.
-Eat, eat, eat: Nonsense, is there anyone better than us, the unmarried official couple?
Shui Yiyao: ...
Netizens really can buy anything.
She turned around and asked Bai Gege: How about the crystal crown?
-Chengdao Jade Carving: If you have any questions, please contact me directly to make corrections.
-Bai Gege: What could be the problem? I am definitely confident in what you did.

After handing in Bai Gege's bill, Shui Yiyao packed up and prepared to attend the Jade Friends Club.
It was 6:30 in the afternoon, and she took a taxi there. The meeting place was in a private manor, which was obviously the setting for rich people.
She arrived at the gate of the manor and saw Nan Yi as she approached the gate. Nan Yi must have been waiting for her at the gate on purpose.
Seeing her coming, Nan Yi hurriedly greeted her: "Boss, your invitation is still here with me."
As he spoke, he handed the invitation in his hand to Shui Yiyao.
Shui Yiyao took it and said, "Thank you."
Nan Yi smiled and said, "You're welcome. Let's go in."
The two walked towards the manor gate together. Nan Yi glanced at Shui Yiyao from time to time, and then glanced at her again from time to time.
Shui Yiyao looked at him and asked, "What are you doing?"
Nanyi: "Boss, you look even better than on live broadcasts and TV."
Shui Yiyao: "Thank you."
She also looked at Nanyi and said politely: "You look better than the live broadcast camera."
After hearing this, Nanyi was suddenly excited and asked in disbelief, "Boss, you also watched my live broadcast?"
Shui Yiyao: “I’ve seen it once.”
The two approached the gate and were greeted by someone who looked like a middle-aged man.
Nan Yi explained to Shui Yiyao, "This is someone from the Zhao family, the organizer. He's the younger brother of the host, Mr. Zhao. His name is Zhao Mingjue. He's been nominated for the Tiangong Gold Award many times and has even won it once."
That's pretty good.
The current Tiangong Award is different from the previous one. In her world, there were many gold medals of the Tiangong Award, but in this world, there is usually only one gold medal. Those who can win the gold medal are all winners in the bloody storm and are very capable.
Nan Yi continued, "The Zhao family is a master jade carver from Chen Yezhou, and most of the people invited this time are from Chen Yezhou."
The two reached the door.
Zhao Mingjue saw the two people coming and smiled politely at them: "Thank you for coming."
The two also returned the gift.
Zhao Mingjue looked at Shui Yiyao and said, "Mr. Shui, I've reviewed all of your work. From design to craftsmanship, it's all top-notch. Especially your timeframe and delivery cycle, which are incredibly fast. This is truly a role model in our field and worth learning from. I truly admire you."
"Thank you very much." Shui Yiyao was a little surprised.
