Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Qiao Sisi arrived at the cafeteria, there were already many people inside.

After taking her lunch box, she found an empty seat and sat down. There were three or four women at the next table. They were huddling together and gossiping.

Gossip…

Qiao Sisi quietly moved closer to hear the women’s conversation.

“Hey, have you heard? That newbie, Qiao Sisi, is Young Master Zheng’s fiancée,” the long-haired woman lowered her voice and said.

The short-haired woman opposite her curled her lips. “I knew it yesterday. That man came over and made such a big fuss. He acted as though no one could hear the commotion.”

When Zeng Qing came yesterday, many of her colleagues at the company saw him, so there were many who knew that Qiao Sisi was Zheng Zeyi’s fiancée.

“I didn’t expect Young Master Zheng to have such taste. If I had known, I would have tried my luck with him too. Who knows, I might have been selected.” The long-haired woman flicked the rice in her bowl. It seemed tasteless to her.

“Zheng Zeyi is an eligible bachelor. Whoever hooka up with him will not have to worry about money for the rest of her life. She’d definitely have a good life.”

“Stop dreaming. How would we know what Young Master Zheng is thinking? Just enjoy our meal.” The short-haired woman shook her head.

All in all, everyone at the table was discussing how bad Zheng Zeyi’s taste was. He did not find a socialite but a commoner.

Perhaps it was because they were not so lucky, so they were full of resentment.

Qiao Sisi, who was listening by the side, had a headache.?Who are these people? Am I very bad?

......

They even dream that Zheng Zeyi will fall for them.

Forget it, let’s eat.?Qiao Sisi pursed her lips and gathered her thoughts as she ate the food in front of her.

After lunch, she headed back to work. It was still a busy day.

During this time, Qiao Sisi also heard some news. CEO Xiang would be returning to the office soon after dealing with overseas matters. If nothing went wrong, she should be back in a few days.

Thinking that she would be able to meet her idol soon, Qiao Sisi felt even more motivated to work.

A few hours later, Qiao Sisi, who was busy in her office, heard someone talking in the hallway.

Because there was a door between them, she did not hear very clearly.

“Chairman Xiang, let’s hold… the designer competition…”

She heard only those few words.

Qiao Sisi looked thoughtful. If she did not hear wrongly, there would be the designer competition. Indeed, coming to Jinyu was the right choice!

Last night, she made a sketch. If a designer competition was launched, it might be a good opportunity for her.

Qiao Sisi was beautiful and her movements were agile. She had already organized more than 10 document files.

At the same time, she had gained a lot of knowledge and had a better understanding of costume jewelry design.

She busied herself until evening.

After a long day, Qiao Sisi massaged her hands, picked up her bag, and got ready to leave the office.

As she went with the crowd and walked out of the office, a familiar figure stood at the entrance.

“Anna!” Qiao Sisi’s eyes lit up as she quickly called out and waved.

Hearing her voice, Chen Anna waved her hand in delight. “I’m here. Come quickly.”

There were many people who got off work at this time and the entrance of the company was packed with people.

Qiao Sisi struggled to make her way through the crowd to Chen Anna. “Anna, why are you here to see me?”

Chen Anna rolled her eyes and said, “Our Ms. Qiao has come to work at the place of her dreams. Can’t you let me visit you?”

“Permission granted. I was just saying it casually.” Qiao Sisi smiled. The two of them held hands and left Jinyu Corporation.

The streets in the shopping district were crowded at night, and various lights in front of the stores lit up the night.

It was evening rush hour, so the streets were crowded and lively, which made shopping more fun.

Qiao Sisi and Chen Anna walked on the streets arm in arm. Because of their good looks and figure, they attracted the attention of many passers-by.

After all, good-looking people would always attract attention.

“Sisi, let’s go to the department store at the central. The jewelry counter there has new products on display,” Chen Anna said mysteriously.

Qiao Sisi raised her eyebrows in surprise. “New products?”

“That’s right, my information can’t be wrong. Let’s go take a look.” After saying that, Chen Anna pulled Qiao Sisi towards the department store.

The three-storied department store was located in the center of the commercial street.

The first floor consisted mostly of clothes, restaurants, and food stores. The third floor consisted of cosmetics and jewelry.

Of course, apart from some items on special offer, prices were not cheap.

The department store was packed. Qiao Sisi and Chen Anna took the elevator to the third floor, which was less crowded than the first floor.

But compared to usual times, there were a lot more people. They had probably heard about the new products before coming here.

“Are you talking about that place?” Qiao Sisi pointed to a jewelry store surrounded by many people. On the top were these poetic words, ‘Lanxing[Lanxing means Star-Embracing] Pavilion.’

She seemed to have heard of this jewelry store before. It was a high-end jewelry store and the customers who frequented it were wealthy people.

Chen Anna glanced at her and nodded excitedly. “Yes, yes, this is the place. Let’s go watch the show.”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed as they walked towards Lanxing Pavilion.

As the saying went, disputes arose where there were many people. When Qiao Sisi and Chen Anna arrived at the jewelry store, they felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.

There was a counter in front of the salesperson, but it was temporarily empty. There was nothing inside.

“The new products don’t seem to be here yet.” Qiao Sisi looked at the empty counter and began to doubt the authenticity of someone’s words.

Chen Anna quickly raised her hand to defend herself. “Wait a little longer. They’ll be there soon!”

Qiao Sisi nodded. She did not really care about any new products, so she and Chen Anna started looking at other jewelry on the counter.

Bracelet, necklace, ring, earrings… Everything that should be there was there, and the workmanship was exquisite.

They certainly lived up to the name, Lanxing Pavilion.

The two of them shopped for a while before the sales assistant made an announcement. A few black gift boxes were now opened and their contents placed on the counter.

“Honorable customers, this is a new product from the Lanxing Pavilion. Master Yalin designed it herself. We only have a few pieces in our store.”

The female customers, who were scattered around the store, flocked to the counter. It seemed that this new product was much anticipated.

It caught Qiao Sisi’s attention. She quickly went to the counter with Chen Anna and saw a few opened black gift boxes.

Inside the gift box were a few slightly different-looking diamond necklaces that emitted a dazzling light under the refraction of the light.

In the bottom right corner of the gift box was the name of the necklace, Tears of the Mermaid.

Like a mermaid’s tears, there was a light blue gemstone in the shape of a teardrop at the end of the necklace. It had an extremely delicate luster and was so beautiful that one could not take one’s eyes off it.
