Because of the popularity in the past two days, Chu Jie used to run business outside, but now he doesn’t need to do that at all. People from outside will find this place no matter how far they go.
Chu Jie opened the door of the studio early in the morning and started to clean the studio. When Mr. Li San came in to work, Chu Jie quickly greeted him, "Here you are!"
Mr. Li San's face showed no color. Instead, he said, "Pack up the things in front and come with me to the back. I have something to tell you."
Chu Jie was stunned. Third Master Li was the most steady person, but now he suddenly became so serious. Chu Jie had a bad feeling. He stopped what he was doing and asked, "Is... is something wrong?"
"You'll know when you come in later," said Mr. Li San.
After Chu Jie packed up his things and found Mr. Li San, he joked, "What's wrong? It's been a long time since I saw you look so serious."
Mr. Li San didn't answer, but instead expressed his thoughts, "Look, I've been in our studio for a long time, and business is booming. You young people know everything, and I'm old and can't stay here any longer."
Chu Jie naturally understood what was said and asked again in an uncertain tone, "Do you want to leave?"
"The business in the store is so booming right now, some young people are even taking pictures with their phones. I think I'm better off in a quiet place. I'll go find a place that suits me."
Chu Jie's face looked a little gloomy. Seeing that Mr. Li Sanye was so determined, he didn't know how to keep him.
"Have you really made up your mind?" Chu Jie asked.
"Yes, I just want to inform you today. I'm packing my things now and will be leaving soon." Mr. Li San said.
Without waiting for Chu Jie to speak, Mr. Li San returned to his post to pack up his things.
For a moment, Chu Jie was in a very low mood. In fact, he knew that Mr. Li San didn't like the hustle and bustle, but he couldn't accept his sudden departure.
The studio was once a bustling place, and without someone, there would always be a sense of loss. Chu Jie sent Mr. Li San away, waving his hand and saying, "As long as you are willing, our studio will always welcome you back."
Mr. Li San nodded and smiled.
As the car turned the corner and left, Chu Jie realized that Mr. Li Sanye was really gone, so he turned around and went back to the studio.
"I have some porcelain that needs to be identified. Where can I put it?" A man walked in with porcelain in his hands, looked around first, and then asked.
Chu Jie didn't answer, the man repeated it again, Chu Jie quickly pointed.
The man had a puzzled look on his face and kept looking back at Chu Jie as he walked away.
Ever since Mr. Li San left, Chu Jie felt empty inside. He felt uncomfortable doing everything and had no mood to do anything.
Li Xiujun came out of the hall and saw Chu Jie lying there in a daze. She shook her head helplessly and patted Chu Jie's shoulder.
Chu Jie subconsciously shook his shoulders and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Answer your phone quickly, it's ringing." Li Xiujun said.
Chu Jie quickly took out his phone, scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I'm so sorry."
He glanced at the note displayed on his phone, frowned, and muttered softly, "Mr. Yi? That's weird, why are you calling me?"
Chu Jie answered the phone, "Hello."
Mr. Yi smiled and said, "Boss Chu, I have a batch of new goods. I know your Master Li is very proficient in this. Could you please ask her to identify the grade for me? As for the price, just name it. Even three times higher than the market price is fine."
At this juncture, Mr. Yi's call was like a cat crying over a mouse, pretending to be sympathetic. Chu Jie said with an embarrassed look on his face, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Yi. If it were in the past, I would definitely accept your order without hesitation, but things are different now. We have too many customers in our studio and we can't finish them all. You should find someone else who is more experienced."
Without waiting for Mr. Yi to speak, Chu Jie hung up the phone.
Li Xiujun didn't ask too much. She had guessed what was going on after listening to the conversation. Seeing Chu Jie's distracted look, Li Xiujun shook her head helplessly and said, "You'd better not stay in the studio today. Go home. I'll take care of it here."
Chu Jie thought for a moment, stood up and stretched. He was indeed not in the right state today. It would be bad if he stayed and offended the guests.
Chu Jie quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll trouble you guys today. I'll go back first."
Along the way, Chu Jie thought a lot. He was planning to go home and have a good sleep. As soon as he opened the door, his cell phone rang. He opened it and read the message.
"If you want to save your father, transfer 800,000 yuan to this card!" It was a simple sentence without any other unnecessary information.
Chu Jie was stunned.
In the studio, Li Xiujun finished one batch after another and it was time to get off work, but she had no desire to eat at all.
Li Xiujun held her phone, feeling a complicated feeling in her heart. She called Zhang Minsheng and asked, "Excuse me, where is Xu Leyan?"
"They are both mother and son and are doing well. Don't ask any more questions."
After leaving this sentence, Zhang Minsheng hung up the phone.
Li Xiujun shook her phone helplessly, then sat in the hall, thinking.
Because no one knows where Xu Leyan and Xu Ran went. Where could a single woman go with such a young child?
Ever since Xu Leyan came out of prison, she seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and didn't even call me.
In the courtyard, Mr. Gu and Mr. Li were drinking tea with great interest. Mr. Gu asked first, "By the way, isn't Xiujun's birthday coming soon?"
Mr. Li thought for a few seconds and said, "Yes, yes, one more week."
Then, the two old men smiled at each other, understanding each other's thoughts.
"Call her now and see what she wants!" Mr. Li smiled.
But Mr. Gu disagreed. "If we do this, won't it let her know that we are going to give her a surprise? I want that effect."
"Then let's tell her to live a simple life and see what she says." Old Master Li quickly made an idea.
He did what he said. He took out his cell phone and called Li Xiujun. Li Xiujun had just gotten off work and answered the phone, "Hello, Grandpa."
"What are you busy with?" The old man was still confused.
"Just got off work."
"Oh~ then don't forget to eat." said the old man.
