Yue Luoxue and Manager Wu were both stunned for a moment before they spoke in unison, ”You do?”
The complacent expression on Hua Qianli's face stiffened, and he said wounded: ”You don't believe me!”
”Oh, I'm just a little shocked.”
”I don't dare, I'm just surprised.”
Yue Luoxue and the shopkeeper spoke at almost the same time, and the two of them looked at each other, and seemed to have a tacit understanding.
Hua Qianli could see everything clearly. He then closed his fan with a ”Pa!” sound, ”A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. Shopkeeper Wu, prepare yourself, today I am going to carve a jade hairpin for this Miss Luoxue!”
Shopkeeper Wu quickly went to prepare, but Yue Luoxue felt that it was unnecessary: ”Young Master Hua, let's just forget it. The jade hairpins in your shop are of high quality, I would take advantage of any one of them.”
”How can that be? I apologize the most sincerely. Lady Xue, just you wait. I'll definitely return you something even better.” Hua Qianli laughed so passionately, Yue Luoxue really couldn't resist this kind of person.
Since she could not decline, Yue Luoxue accepted it generously: ”Then I will not reject it, and it just so happens that I can broaden my horizons!”
”Little Xue'er, I definitely won't let you down. Just don't call me Young Master Hua from now on, you should get along well.” As Hua Qianli said this, he even considered himself to be loose and easy.
Yue Luoxue was speechless, she had turned into Little Snow so quickly? They had always been on the same side, okay? ”Umm … Young Master Hua …”
”If you don't say it, don't call me Young Master Hua. Call me Qianli or Flower, or else I'll be injured.” Hua Qianli held his chest in an exaggerated manner.
Yue Luoxue had the urge to smash her head against a wall. Just thinking about it made him feel numb, so she could only let out a chuckle. ”I feel like we're not that familiar yet.”
”That's true, we'll get to know each other after a while. Luoxue, you'll get to know me after calling me a few more times.” Hua Qianli nodded his head, but the words that came out of his mouth differed greatly.
Yue Luoxue had never seen anyone with skin thicker than Tang Yuan's! Fortunately, Manager Wu had brought back a tray to help Yue Luoxue out.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Yue Luoxue calmly looked around the shop. It was indeed a jade artifact store, but the shopkeeper and waiter were breathing calmly.
This Hua Qianli who had appeared out of nowhere was not an ordinary person.
As for whether the meeting between Hua Qianli and her was a coincidence or a plan, no one knew.
”This piece of jade is not bad.” Manager Wu selected a few jade bars. Hua Qianli touched them all, and finally picked a light green jade stone with white patterns.
Yue Luoxue secretly nodded her head. This jade was most suitable to be used to carve a Snowy Flower.
Hua Qianli saw a trace of praise in Yue Luoxue's eyes, and his entire person became spirited. He took out a straight dagger from his sleeve, which was slightly smaller than a normal dagger, also thinner and longer.
The handle of the dagger also had Cherry Blossom markings, Yue Luoxue couldn't help but to take another glance at it. Hua Qianli seemed to like the cherry blossoms a lot, they were on his clothes, and even on his dagger.
His technique was extremely proficient, and did not resemble some playboy's appearance at all. A jade hairpin quickly took shape in his hand, and only when he was carving the cedar flower did his speed slow down.
”Little Snow, do you know the story of the snowflake?”
Hua Qianli lowered his head and carving, and asked as if he was chatting.
