When the personal assistant heard that the item in Jiang Liu'er's hand was just a ring, the smile on his face immediately changed, ”Sir, I'm sorry, but if the item in your hand is only a ring, then I can apologise to you for telling me that our CEO already has it, and might not need it too much.”
Jiang Liu'er raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the man would suddenly say no, he even needed to be prepared.
”I think you should look at this thing first.”
When Jiang Liu'er took out the exquisite ring from her bosom, the assistant's expression clearly paused for a moment. He extended his hand to receive the ring, his eyes staring at it without blinking.
When Jiang Liu'er saw the man's expression, the nervousness in her heart eased up. It seemed that using such a small thing to attract the attention of a man was indeed a good choice. What she needed to do now was to be able to see the CEO directly.
”Sir, may I know your name?”
”My name is Jiang Liu'er.”
”Mr. Jiang, may I ask where you obtained this ring?”
As expected, the man was interested in this ring, but … Simply producing interest was not his goal.
”I'm sorry, that's all I can tell you.”
The assistant raised her head and glanced at Jiang Liu'er, as if she understood what Jiang Liu'er meant. She then said, ”Wait a moment, immediately leave the room.”
A few minutes later, the assistant came back from outside and said that he would like to invite Jiang Liu'er to another place. Jiang Liu'er followed the man to the elevator and went upstairs. Sure enough, under the assistant's introduction, he entered the manager's room.
”Mr. Jiang, please wait for a moment. Our manager will be here shortly.”
Jiang Liu'er sat on the sofa, quietly waiting for the manager to arrive.
A few minutes later, a sound came from the door. It was a man in his early thirties wearing a handsome black suit. He had short, lean hair and looked very capable.
”I'm sorry for the wait, Mr. Jiang.” When the man saw that Jiang Liu'er was about to stand up, he quickly stepped forward, ”It's alright, please take a seat. Let's get straight to the point, I heard from the assistant that you have an exquisite ring on your hand. I wonder if I could take a look at this ring first?” ”Oh yeah, I haven't introduced myself. I'm the CEO of Starlight Co., Ltd. My name is Wu Hui.”
Jiang Liu'er nodded and passed the ring to the man.
”I've heard a lot about you. My name is Jiang Liu'er, I'm very happy to have the chance to meet you again.”
The man took the ring, unable to conceal the joy on his face. ”Where did you get this ring?”
”I received it by chance. Since you are a direct person, then let me be straightforward. If you are interested in accepting this ring, then I will discuss a deal with you.”
The man nodded, ”I am very satisfied with the ring. Of course, I want to know your conditions before deciding whether or not to make a deal with you. I won't do anything unfair.”
”All I want is a vase.”
The man frowned when he heard what Jiang Liu'er said. However, it was only for an instant. He had once again put on that incomprehensible smile.
”The ring is indeed not bad, and I am also very interested in your trade. Give me one day to consider it.”
Jiang Liu'er guessed that the man might feel that the terms of her trade were a bit harsh and thought for a while. After all, there might only be one chance to make this deal, and with the ability of a man, he could find many better rings.
The things in his house, to him, other than being able to absorb air currents, they were not of much value to him. Instead, he might as well use a reasonable place to sell a favor to Wu Hui, and at the same time sell a favor to Murong Batian.
”Oh right, there is one more thing that I want to use as a bargaining chip.”
The man was filled with anticipation, but Jiang Liu'er only took out his phone. He handed the photo he took earlier to Wu Hui, who smiled wryly, but the smile immediately turned into a knowing smile.
He raised his head and carefully sized up Jiang Liu'er. ”Recently, there has been a lot of shouting about having a name in the antique circles. I've always been very curious about that name. The person I'm referring to must be you.”
Wu Hui's sudden remark surprised Jiang Liu'er. After hearing the praise of others, she was naturally happy. Besides, having such a small fame in the antique industry would be of great help to Jiang Liu'er in the future.
”No, no.” Jiang Liu'er smiled, feeling a little embarrassed. ”If you like it, I think our deal isn't just on this piece of blue and white porcelain.”
Wu Hui had long heard of Jiang Liu'er's fame in the antique industry. He might not have expected that the person he was dealing with today was Jiang Liu'er, but since he was here, Wu Hui would definitely make Jiang Liu'er his friend.
As the proverb goes, when you are outside, friends are more important, and there is a wide road ahead of you. Moreover, he was very interested in antiques and such things.
Wu Hui stood up. Jiang Liu'er looked at Wu Hui curiously. She didn't expect Wu Hui to take out a wine cup from his seat and a bottle of red wine from the drawer.
