Walking into the store, Han Xuewei hadn't had much of a look around when she received a phone call from Qin Xiaoxu.
Han Xuewei imdiately answered, and the voice on the other end quickly began, "Vivi, I heard today that Gu Li ca back. Didn't that woman have a conflict with you before? Is she attending classes with you...?"
Hearing this, Han Xuewei replied with emotion, "Yeah, I saw her today, but we don't get along, so I didn't speak to her."
Upon hearing that, Qin Xiaoxu imdiately showed a displeased expression.
"Exactly, that woman is really sothing! I'm so annoyed just seeing her around with that smug look of hers, acting all proud just because she went abroad? What's so great about that?"
Qin Xiaoxu and Han Xuewei had already co across Gu Li before, so their impression of her was very unfavorable.
And Qin Xiaoxu, who is quite straightforward, wouldn't beat around the bush like Han Xuewei. If Gu Li dared to lord it over Qin Xiaoxu, Qin would certainly put her in her place.
But she's not in the university anymore, so all she could do was express indignation on behalf of Han Xuewei; she couldn't really help in any practical sense.
As they talked, Qin Xiaoxu ntioned soone else.
Hearing this, Han Xuewei also felt sowhat speechless.
"Are you talking about Ye Caiwei? Didn't Ye Caiwei take a leave of absence from school?"
"Yes, she did take a leave, but she just called a mont ago, saying she wants to get together with everyone from our dormitory. I don't even know how she's been doing recently. I think maybe she's afraid of facing us..."
"I don't know either, but we can ask her when we see her. When is the gathering?"
"It's tonight. She just called to tell . Vivi, you must co, of course I'm going. After all, I was pretty close with her during college."
As Han Xuewei spoke, Qin Xiaoxu finally took a deep breath and then hung up the phone.
At this mont, after hearing this phone call, Han Xuewei looked sowhat bewildered. She hadn't expected Ye Caiwei to co back all of a sudden, and even to be talking about organizing a reunion. She wondered what had happened.
Lin Yi was picking out so rings when he turned and saw Han Xuewei looking sowhat listless, so he couldn't help but ask, "Wife, what's wrong? You seed upset after that phone call."
Hearing this, Han Xuewei quickly shook her head.
"No, it's not that I'm feeling bad. It's just that my college dormmate said she wants to et up. The person organizing the gathering is a friend I knew from before. When she was in her freshman or sophomore year at college,
she found out she was pregnant. Then she decided to go ho and get married. At the ti, I advised her to finish school first, then deal with this matter, but I don't know what happened after, it seed like she just dropped out."
At this, Han Xuewei's brows furrowed.
"Back then, we tried to contact her through phone calls and WeChat, but she didn't respond to anything; it's like she just disappeared. We didn't et over the winter vacation either, and it seed like she never returned to school."
"I don't know if she's doing well now, married with children. If she's really not doing well... So I definitely need to go tonight."
As Han Xuewei spoke, her mood beca somber.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi nodded in agreent.
After the conversation, Lin Yi turned his head back and continued to select diamond rings for Han Xuewei.
Looking at the few diamond rings laid out by the sales associate, Lin Yi was not quite satisfied. Although his knowledge of diamond rings was not very extensive, the rings did not look very appealing even in terms of display.
Lin Yi knitted his brows and spoke up, "Do you have anything else? Sothing that looks more imposing, and then, perhaps, more expensive? These all seem a bit too modest for my taste. Price is no object! As long as it's suitable!"
Lin Yi said indifferently, while the ring in the saleswoman's hand was by no ans cheap—it would take a good million to acquire it. However, Lin Yi seed unimpressed.
At that mont, she felt sowhat at a loss and looked over to the female manager, who, upon seeing Lin Yi, imdiately walked over with a smile.
"Sir, please don't worry, we have many more diamond rings that you can choose from. Just give us a mont..."
Then, the female manager headed inside. Their more valuable rings were locked up in the safe, and generally, no one would ask about them. Sotis they would make a sample or show a photograph to the custors.
But even the well-known tycoons of Xiangcheng rarely asked for rings of that level because they were simply too expensive.
Soon, the manager returned and said, "Sir, please co with to take a look inside."
Hearing this, Lin Yiling turned to Han Xuewei. Han Xuewei nodded, and the two of them went inside together.
The manager carefully presented a diamond ring that sparkled magnificently, looking exceedingly luxurious and valuable, like a gemstone.
Han Xuewei was astonished at first glance, as it was her first ti seeing such a beautiful diamond ring.
It brought out the beauty of the diamond to the extre, and it was also full of design sense. Han Xuewei couldn't help but say, "Honey, this ring looks pretty good!"
Seeing Han Xuewei satisfied, Lin Yi stepped forward to take a look and said, "This ring's diamond seems a bit small!"
Hearing this, the female manager excitedly responded, "Sir, we can customize the size of the diamond here. It's just that the larger diamond will be more expensive and will require so ti to prepare..."
Hearing this, Lin Yi turned back to Han Xuewei and said, "Since this style is good, just wrap this one up for for now. As for your custom model, can it be expedited..."
As Lin Yi spoke, the manager's expression imdiately turned respectful. She rarely encountered a big spender like Lin Yi, and naturally, she responded respectfully and promptly, "Of course, we can hasten the process, but may I know when sir would like to pick it up? We will definitely try to finish it as soon as possible."
"Can I get it by tonight? If so, I will place the order right now."
As Lin Yi said this, the manager and all the sales associates around were stunned. They looked at Lin Yi in surprise.
The ring that Lin Yi had just purchased was also worth five million, and the custom one with the larger diamond he spoke of would cost nearly over ten million. It was no small sum of money.
Therefore, the sales associate couldn't help but approach and say, "Sir, the cost of these two items is different. The custom one you want will start at least at ten million, and the craftsmanship fee is also extrely high."
However, the manager stopped the sales associate and bowed respectfully to Lin Yi, "If sir wants to customize, we would require an upfront paynt. If you wish, we can work to finish it for you by tonight, guaranteeing your satisfaction."
