I followed Jiang Ning to an unfamiliar place. It seemed we ended up at a studio?
"We've arrived, get off the bus."
Jiang Ning led Yan Keyi into the small villa.
As soon as Jiang Ning entered, the people inside warmly came over and hugged him.
"Hi Director Jiang, it's been a long time."
"Don't call me Director Jiang anymore, I left Huanyu a long time ago. Let me introduce you, this is our child."
Without making a sound, Jiang Ning gently pushed the person away. Yin Rong was always very enthusiastic, something Jiang Ning was used to. But she still didn't like getting too close to others, especially with a jealous person standing next to her. She wouldn't react now, but things might be different back home.
When introducing Yan Keyi to his acquaintances, Jiang Ning didn't want to hide anything, but he couldn't say too much either.
Anyway, it wasn't said directly, but the term "own child" is ambiguous enough. How to interpret it is up to the listener to their interpretation.
"The Dawn watch I ordered from you before was a gift for her. Yiyi, just call him Brother Rong."
Yan Keyi was still a little cautious when she looked at Yin Rong, but after Jiang Ning finished speaking, she obediently called him "Brother Rong," though her eyes were full of vigilance.
Yan Keyi's appearance also piqued Yin Rong's interest.
Yan Keyi was already beautiful and attractive enough. Moreover, she was brought over by Jiang Ning, who was known for his apathy, making Yin Rong even more of a rarity. The more he stared at her, the more wary Yan Keyi became.
I have a feeling this person isn't a good person.
"Don't be afraid, Yiyi. He's a gay man and he won't be interested in us."
Seeing the two of them, one deliberately teasing and the other looking very wary, Jiang Ning couldn't help but whisper something in Yan Keyi's ear.
Upon hearing this, Yan Keyi's sense of crisis finally subsided.
However, even if the voice was very soft, there was no one else there, and Jiang Ning and the others were very close, so Yin Rong could hear them no matter how softly they spoke.
"Jiang Ning, isn't it a bit too much for you to say such things to my face?"
Yin Rong's voice sounded somewhat angry, even a little distant.
However, after hearing his voice, Jiang Ning added a casual remark—
"He's not only a dead gay man, but also a drama queen. Just ignore him, he'll entertain himself. Hurry up and take us to see the finished product."
Jiang Ning was not polite to Yin Rong. His personality couldn't be indulged; the more you spoiled him, the more he would take advantage.
After being scolded by Jiang Ning, Yin Rong regained his composure and turned to lead the way.
Upon entering the workshop, Jiang Ning immediately spotted the set of jewelry in the very center.
Yin Rong placed it right in the center; it was hard not to notice it.
Yin Rong walked over and used his key to unlock the transparent box. After all, he wasn't the only one in his studio; if someone else bumped into it, he couldn't afford to pay for it.
"Bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings, hairpins, they're all here. Take a look and see if there's anything else you want to change."
After handing the item to Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning began to suspect something.
Because it was a gift for Yan Keyi, Jiang Ning always felt that the best things in the world were not worthy of Yan Keyi.
She always hoped that the gifts she gave to Yan Keyi would be better and better.
However, the concept of perfection is itself a false proposition.
"very beautiful…"
Before Jiang Ning could even suggest any changes, Yan Keyi exclaimed in surprise.
Putting aside the fact that she would like anything Jiang Ning gave her.
But this gift was indeed the most exquisite one in Yan Keyi's opinion.
Will Yiyi like it?
Upon hearing Yan Keyi's voice, Jiang Ning immediately asked for her opinion. Yan Keyi's answer, naturally, was that she liked it.
"How could it not be beautiful? Every single gemstone on this set is incredibly expensive."
Although the design was done by Jiang Ning, the construction was done by himself. Yin Rong put a lot of effort into recreating the design drawings one-to-one.
Seeing that Yan Keyi would like it, Yin Rong was actually happy.
However, when it comes to this, Yin Rong has to mention the raw materials.
Jiang Ning didn't want to measure the meaning of the gift by its monetary value. She simply felt it suited Yan Keyi, so she wanted to make it for her. That's all.
She didn't want Yan Keyi to feel guilty because of the value of the gift.
So when Yin Rong said that, he glared at him, realizing that Yin Rong had really been too talkative.
But since the words had already been spoken, it piqued Yan Keyi's curiosity. She asked what had happened.
Although Jiang Ning glared at him, Yin Rong wasn't particularly afraid of him. He then explained the whole story, including how Yin Rong and Jiang Ning first met.
Yin Rong and Jiang Ning met at a jewelry auction.
The vast majority of wealthy people who attend auctions are there for the beautiful jewelry. And in most cases, that's exactly what the auctions are all about.
But that auction that year also offered a set of uncut gemstones. The material was excellent and indeed very beautiful, but what could be made from them was uncertain. If it was ruined, buying it might be a loss.
So initially, there weren't many bidders. Yin Rong originally thought the set of gems was his for the taking, but then Jiang Ning suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
He couldn't compete with Jiang Ning in terms of financial resources. It wasn't that he was broke, but he was in a situation where he could afford it but didn't need to.
But after the auction ended, he felt somewhat unwilling and thought about buying it from Jiang Ning. Once he made the finished product, he could give some to Jiang Ning.
However, Jiang Ning refused.
Yin Rong approached Jiang Ning several more times afterward, but without exception, he failed to persuade Jiang Ning. However, over time, the two became acquainted, which is true.
Jiang Ning works at a design company, while Yin Rong owns a sizable design studio and processing plant. Thanks to Jiang Ning's connections, most of Huan Yu's previous orders were completed through him.
After listening to Yin Rong's explanation, Yan Keyi finally understood why Yin Rong had insisted on bringing this up. It turned out he was just feeling resentful and had become a jealous person.
However, Yan Keyi was also curious about how much Jiang Ning had spent to acquire it.
"More than five million, I guess."
Yin Rong had already said most of what should and shouldn't have been said, so Jiang Ning could only tell the truth.
As expected, Yan Keyi was completely astonished upon hearing the number.
Suddenly, she felt that this set of jewelry was too hot to handle. Was this really something she could wear in public?
"It's not just over five million, it's a full five million two hundred thousand!"
Five million was the highest price Yin Rong could accept, but Jiang Ning directly added two hundred thousand to that price.
