“This is mine and I can gift it to whoever I want. What does deserving it or not have anything to do with it?” Gu Yanran looked at Gu Nianzhi with an amused face, her happiness unparalleled. Just seeing the admiration and desire in Gu Nianzhi’s eyes made Gu Yanran feel that this gift was worth giving…
Everyone in the hall witnessed this and whispered quietly to each other.
“That pink diamond crown looks pretty expensive…”
“Right, it must be a famous object. I also have a few pieces of pink diamond jewelry but their color is no comparison to this.”
Everyone in the room had refined taste. Since Gu Yanran had given such a huge gift, it was no wonder that the Prime Minister’s family was being friendly with her.
Gu Nianzhi chuckled. c.o.c.king her head to study the pink diamond on Tan Guiren’s head, she said, “Is that so? Did Father really give it to you? But I think this pink diamond crown is a high-end replica, so why would Father give a replica to you?”
High-end replica? The faces of all the people in the hall fell when they heard this. Some people even believed it right away since the Tans had a history of wearing high-end replicas… In the case of Tan Guiren’s mother, Cai Songyin, one of her past charges was related to acquiring a high-end replica of trademarked jewelry. Although Gu Yanran got involved afterward to purchase the trademark rights, a fake was still a fake. Wearing a fake was considered taboo in their social circle. Though the people in the hall didn’t speak loudly, they didn’t attempt to suppress their voice either. She instantly became furious and her face fell as she said to Gu Nianzhi, “Little Sister, you just told me to not say things without evidence to back up them up, so why are you spouting nonsense now?”
“Since Sister is saying that, does that prove that you were spouting nonsense and slandering me earlier?” Gu Nianzhi broke into a smile, her plump lips curving into a pleasant shape. Her lips were pearly and glowing, and her entire person seemed to be submerged in the ethereal moonlight. “And I never spouted nonsense. Sister, how would you prove that this pink diamond crown is authentic and not a high-end replica?”
Gu Yanran sneered at her. “Why do I need to prove it to you? Also, high-end replica–do you even know what this is? High-end replica, what nonsense!”
“Of course I know what this is.” Gu Nianzhi walked around Tan Guiren, her voice suddenly becoming so crisp and loud that the entire hall could hear her clearly. “This pink diamond crown’s style is the exact same pink diamond crown that belonged to Catherine the Great.”
“Catherine the Great’s crown?! That’s a royal crown!” The people in the hall began to grow excited and some people even picked up their phones to take photos of the pink diamond crown on Tan Guiren’s head.
“Hmm? I didn’t think you would be so knowledgeable.” Gu Yanran raised a brow. “To tell you the truth, this was a gift from my father especially bought from Christie’s Auctions on my birthday. I still have the invoice from Christie’s at home. High-end replica? Why would the Gu household wear replicas?”
“Haha, so what if you have an invoice? Can’t invoices be faked?” Gu Nianzhi raised a finger to shake as she said nonchalantly, “I once saw a case of full-service fakery. I know for a fact that not only the invoice but even a receipt from the top tier American department store Neiman Marcus can be fabricated!”
“You keep going on and on, but you’re just angry that I gave this crown to Little Darling.” Gu Yanran smiled triumphantly when she spied Gu Nianzhi’s look of desire. She mimicked Gu Nianzhi by shaking her finger. “Little Sister, I know you like this crown, but I didn’t think you deserved it, so I gave it to someone who does.”
