70 I like big ones
Chu Xiao was holding Yu Chun's hand, and besides her efficient and capable personal assistant, there were also more than a dozen tall and burly bodyguards in black.
A convoy of six black Maybachs waited in the parking area, clearly a large and imposing sight, giving off a formidable aura.
Yu Chun was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously tightened her grip on Chu Xiao's hand.
He was a little disappointed.
I thought it was just a date between the two of them.
Why such a big fuss?
In Yu Chun's understanding, Chu Xiao would not usually bring so many people with her, as this was not in line with her consistently low-key style.
Chu Xiao, without changing his expression, led Yu Chun into the car: "This time we're going to the family's jewelry studio."
Yu Chun understood.
He had also heard of the Jian family's jewelry workshop; anything produced there, even a single ring, was priceless.
Although the flower market is one of the safest cities in the world, such valuable items do require strict security.
He fully understood Chu Xiao's caution.
Wait a minute! They went out to pick out wedding rings, and Chu Xiao's destination was the family jewelry studio, which means...
Chu Xiao was going to take him to the family's jewelry studio to pick out a wedding ring!
Yu Chun was immediately moved to tears.
He remembered that Jian Bing's fiancé, Leng Ao, didn't receive this treatment.
It is said that Leng Ao's engagement ring was just a rare item that the Jian family acquired at an auction. Leng Ao has never been allowed to enter the Jian family's core custom workshop.
Is this the difference between having two feet in a wealthy family and having only one foot in?
Thinking of Leng Ao and Jian Bing's five-year-long relationship, which ended in engagement only a few months later, while she and Chu Xiao...
Yu Chun was certain once again that Chu Xiao truly loved him!
Chu Xiao noticed Yu Chun's face suddenly flushed and she became excited out of the corner of his eye, but he wasn't surprised.
She had become accustomed to Chun's occasional erratic behavior.
Li, Chu Xiao's right-hand man, found it difficult to adapt.
She quickly stole a glance at Yu Chun.
She didn't know much about this lucky woman who successfully married into the Jian family.
His face alone is flawless.
She managed to win over her boss and gain entry into his inner circle in just a few months, so she must be a highly skilled person.
But based on my actual interactions with him so far, he seems a bit slow on the uptake... which is rather strange.
So, did the boss... actually find beauty in this guy's brainstem deficiency?!
...
Jane's family jewelry studio is located on the 101st floor of the Pancake Group headquarters building, accessible only by the chairman's private elevator, which requires triple access verification.
The two took the elevator smoothly to the 101st floor, where a professional team of six people was already waiting on both sides of the entrance.
"Hello, Mr. Jian. Hello, Mr. Yu."
The six-person team introduced themselves one by one, and all of them had impressive backgrounds.
He's either a former chief designer at Tiffany's who returned from studying in Switzerland, a gemologist with a PhD from a top laboratory at Oxford University, or a craft director who apprenticed under a master of artifact restoration at the Palace Museum and inherited ancient inlay techniques.
Yu Chun nodded expressionlessly, but her heart was surging with excitement.
Such a dream team lineup is something he has never seen before, so the design of the ring must be extraordinary!
His anticipation for the wedding ring, which he had yet to see, instantly soared to new heights.
Upon entering the studio, Yu Chun discovered that it was a completely transparent glass dome studio, offering panoramic views of the city from the 101st floor.
Upon entering, one's eyes are greeted by a Michelin Seven Star Pancake Certificate with diamond edging hanging on the wall.
The central display stand is shaped like a pancake griddle carved from white marble, with a temperature-controlled safe hidden underneath.
Yu Chun was stunned by the luxurious decor filled with pancake elements: "No wonder it's the jewelry studio of the Pancake Group, even the decor is so unique!"
Chu Xiao curled the corners of her lips. Although she wasn't the one who actually designed the interior, she wrote the environmental descriptions in the novel, so she could consider it her inspiration.
Being praised and recognized for her ideas made her feel very good.
"Not only the decoration, but the jewelry design is also more creative." Chu Xiao unlocked the safe with her fingerprint and then used her iris scan to remove the bulletproof glass cover.
Chief designer Lu Bocui, wearing black velvet gloves embroidered with gold thread and scallion patterns on the rim of a bowl, reverently presented the first ring.
The ring certainly lived up to Yu Chun's expectations.
A giant yellow diamond, estimated to be nearly 100 carats, gleamed with a dazzling brilliance against a black cloth backdrop.
Yu Chun squinted, startled by the flash.
He looked at the huge, sparkling yellow diamond with admiration.
Such a huge and high-purity diamond must be incredibly valuable!
But this shape... the more I look at it, the more it looks like a half-cooked egg yolk.
"This 'Golden Abundance' piece features a 102-carat Fancy Vivid Yellow Diamond as its main stone," Master Lu introduced with great emphasis. "Its design is inspired by the soul of a pancake—the perfect egg mixture poured on the first spoonful, just before it solidifies!"
It really is shaped like egg wash...
Yu Chun asked curiously, "Are there any other styles?"
Chu Xiao looked at the craft director: "Bring out all the works from recent years."
The group then carefully took out two more pieces from the safe.
"This piece, 'Jiaoyang Like Fire,' features a 20-carat Mogok unburnt pigeon blood red stone as its main stone, cut into the shape of a naturally formed chili pepper."
"This 'black jade' piece, made of 56-carat black diamond, mimics the way sesame seeds are scattered on a pancake. Its 81 facets pay homage to the perfect folds of a classic family pancake."
Chu Xiao waved his hand domineeringly: "Which one do you like?"
Yu Chun's gaze lingered between the three rings.
Yellow diamonds are extravagant, black diamonds are mysterious, and red diamonds are fiery; each has its own unique charm.
Looking at the yellow diamond on the left, then the pigeon blood red in the middle, and finally at the black diamond on the far right, Yu Chun turned her head and looked at Chu Xiao with a pleading gaze.
"Why don't we try them on?" Chu Xiao put his arm around Yu Chun's slender waist, and the two of them sat shoulder to shoulder.
She lowered her head and slipped the rings onto Yu Chun's fingers one by one.
The most effective one is pigeon blood red, not only because of its moderate dosage, but also because it is best suited for pure red.
Yu Chun has long, slender fingers and fair skin. The red color complements his skin tone perfectly.
Chu Xiao gazed at the pigeon-blood red coin that shimmered on Yu Chun's fingertip, his thoughts drifting away unconsciously.
This vibrant color always reminded her of Yu Chun when they were deeply moved, their fingers intertwined so tightly that their knuckles turned red...
Yu Chun immediately noticed Chu Xiao's absent-mindedness and gritted her teeth inwardly.
The woman was staring intently at his fingers; she was definitely up to no good!
He reached out without making a sound and pinched Chu Xiao's soft waist flesh lightly.
Chu Xiao felt a sudden ache in her side and snapped back to reality.
She hadn't expected Yu Chun to catch her in her act, and she cleared her throat awkwardly—
"cough."
The craftsmanship director immediately and attentively served her fresh tea, and the gemologist doctor promptly turned up the air conditioning temperature.
Chu Xiao casually took a sip of tea: "Which one do you choose?"
After hesitating for a while, Yu Chun finally chose the 100-carat "Golden Jade Abundance" yellow diamond.
"Why did you choose 'Abundant Wealth'?" Chu Xiao still felt that "Fiery Sunshine" was more suitable for Yu Chun.
Yu Chun is fascinated by the yellow diamond: "I like the big ones."
No, because the yellow diamond is shaped like egg liquid, and egg liquid and pancakes are a perfect match.
Pancakes can't be made without egg!
Just then, the asset manager, dressed in a three-piece suit and with his hair neatly combed, silently appeared and handed Chu Xiao an exquisite folder.
Chu Xiao didn't even glance at it, directly flipping to the last page and signing the original owner's name in a flamboyant style.
"What is this?" Yu Chun asked curiously as she leaned closer.
He felt that Chu Xiao's signature was as mysterious as the doctor's handwritten prescription he had seen before.
"It's nothing." Chu Xiao capped the pen and handed the documents and pen back to the asset manager.
She casually slipped the "Golden Jade Abundance" pendant back onto Yu Chun's middle finger.
Yu Chun felt that Chu Xiao was just giving him the runaround, but he persisted and pressed for details: "I saw it all, it was a document!"
Chu Xiaofeng replied casually, "It's just transferring 'Abundant Wealth' from the family's fixed assets to your personal assets."
"!" Yu Chun's eyes widened.
He cried again.
Unlike an hour ago, this time Yu Chun shed tears of happiness.
