Chapter 22 (1/2)
”Chairman Liu, you need to rest right now. Although you just only fainted, it's not too big of a hindrance. If you don't rest well, you could possibly develop cancer.” Yan Tian looked at Liu Ruoxin who was preparing to go to work and scared her.
”What? Get cancer?” As soon as Liu Ruoxin heard she could get cancer, she immediately looked at Yan Tian incredulously.
In order for Liu Ruoxin to get sufficient rehabilitation, Yan Tian was forced to put forward his Oscar-winning acting skills to continue to trick Liu Ruoxin.
”Yes, I've studied medicine before. With your current situation, you're at the most susceptible to developing cancer. Therefore, you need to relax properly, eat more high-protein, high-calorie foods.” Yan Tian said to Liu Ruoxin earnestly.
As soon as Liu Ruoxin heard Yan Tian's word, she thought it over for a moment. Looking at Yan Tian again, she skeptically asked: ”Is what you're saying true? If you dare to trick me, I'll deduct your wages.”
As he heard Liu Ruoxin, his heart thumped. He thought to himself, if I let Liu Ruoxin discover I tricked her, it won't do if she actually turns out to deduct my salary. It would be a huge joke.
However, he had said this, so Yan Tian was forced to grit his teeth and say: ”Oh my, Chairman Liu, how could I possibly trick you?”
Through Yan Tian's continuous deception, Liu Ruoxin finally decided to rest for a day. She gave the company's vice chairman a call and explained some matters. Afterwards, she sat down on the sofa and watched Korean drama. That was right, Liu Ruoxin liked to watch Korean drama as well.
This made Yan Tian terribly angry. He had duped her for half the day, and in the end, he was even unable to watch television. There was no way around it; who made him work outside of his job?
Yan Tian sat for a while honestly feeling bored. He decided he would spend this idle period to look for a jade store to see whether or not he could find a piece of blood jade.
”Chairman Liu, is there a place that sells jade nearby?” Since his understanding of Fengan City wasn’t especially deep, Yan Tian was forced to ask Liu Ruoxin.
”Jade? Why are you looking for jade?” Liu Ruoxin asked quite curiously.
”I want to find a piece of blood jade.”
”Blood jade? What are you going to do? You're better off not buying that kind of jade.” After Liu Ruoxin heard that Yan Tian wanted to go look for blood jade, she then warned him with good intentions.
”Haha, it's not a problem. I have a little use for it, nothing more.
”On Fengping road there's a pretty good jewelry store. Go there and take a look.” Liu Ruoxin thought it over and told Yan Tian of a jewelry store.
After Yan Tian heard Liu Ruoxin, he bade farewell to her and Auntie Sun, then got into the car and set off.
As Yan Tian drove the red Porsche swiftly, he found the jewelry store Liu Ruoxin spoke of. The store's name was Jade Pavillion. At this time it seemed there wasn’t a single person inside.
”Is the boss here?” Just as Yan Tian entered, he said loudly.
”Hey, come in, come in.”
Immediately afterwards, a seemingly forty-year-old man came out of a small room within the shop. At the moment, the man was all smiles, looking at Yan Tian.
”Mister, what do you require?”
”Do you have blood jade here? I want to buy a piece of blood jade.” Yan Tian directly headed straight to the point.
”Oh my, young man. You can consider yourself to have found the right man. Let me tell you, others may not understand much, but I understand the most about blood jade.” The store owner immediately chuckled.
”Then give me a piece.” Yan Tian pressingly said.
”But Mister, I don't know what kind of blood jade you want? Blood jade is divided into different categories.” As soon as the store owner heard Yan Tian wanted a piece, he was excited, since if he sold a piece there would be much profit.
Blood jade was divided into categories? Yan Tian was ignorant of this matter. He had always believed there was a only a single jade cla.s.sification. He didn’t expect that jade would be divided into separate categories.
”How many categories are there?” Facing the store owner, Yan Tian lacked the slightest bit of knowledge.
