Chapter 48 - Dear, Issue a Certificate Please (1/2)

“Qianshu, are you going to go for quality inspection? Let me fetch you. It’s on the way for me too.”

“I am going to Spring Court Fair.” Shen Qianshu pointed towards the opposite direction.

Li Zhiyuan smoothly changed his words and said, “Oh, what a coincidence! I am going to Spring Court Fair too! Let’s go together!”

Shen Qianshu was speechless.

What happened to going in the quality inspection’s direction?

It was rush hour, and it was quite difficult to hail a taxi. Her house was considered far from the office, and every day, she would have to pass by the place with the heaviest traffic. There was a train station right outside her house; thus, Shen Qianshu always took the train to work. She could reach the office in half an hour and was never late. Thus, she avoided driving as much as possible.

She did not reject Li Zhiyuan’s offer too.

“Why are you going to Spring Court Fair?”

“To gather some samples.” This was not considered a business secret.

Shen Qianshu said, “There is a batch of jade and colored gemstones from Myanmar being shipped into City A, and most were shipped to Spring Court Fair. There were rumors that they were high quality counterfeits, and many professional appraisers can’t identify whether they are real or fake. I am going there to gather information.”

“Gubelin’s appraisers need to do this kind of job?”

“Of course. What if one day someone sends his jewel for inspection, and we issued a certificate only to realise later that we actually made a mistake? Our reputation will be ruined.”

“Spring Court Fair is very popular lately. I also heard some rumors. Do you mind if I go with you?” Li Zhiyuan gently said.

“Are you not busy?” It was during office hours.

“Not at all when it comes to accompanying a beauty like you.”

“… Up to you. Just don’t disturb me when I’m working.”

Spring Court Fair was very crowded.

It was considered a tourist attraction, and tourists were all strolling leisurely in front of all the different jewelry shops, hoping to make a satisfactory purchase.
