Chapter 44: Diamonds

Chu Yao smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you, but this mine is not mine alone, I mine it in partnership with others." When it really becomes mine one day, I'll give it to you. ”

"I don't dare to ask for it," Jiang Anning softened his tone.

She knows how to stop in moderation, a woman is coquettish when she is fierce, and it will backfire if she is too fierce.

In this wilderness, she didn't want to anger Chu Yao.

"Little Clever Ghost. Chu Yao hooked his lips and chuckled, reaching out and rubbing her head.

"I want to call my mother, is that okay?" Jiang Anning asked.

Chu Yao nodded: "Of course you can, I will take you out to play, and I will not imprison you, but also restrict your personal freedom." ”

"But my phone has no signal. Jiang Anning took out his mobile phone.

Ten years ago, it was underdeveloped, and mobile phones did not even have a signal abroad.

"But it's night over there now, I'm afraid your mother is still resting, so why don't you sleep first, and then call her when you wake up." Chu Yao suggested.

Jiang Anning nodded.

The conditions here are relatively poor, although the place to live is okay, but it is more troublesome to want to take a bath.

There is a specific bathing room here, which is also improvised. Because the water here is relatively tight, it is generally necessary to take a shower.

Not everyone can take a shower, only a person with a high authority has the right to use the bathing room here.

Because they came late, there was not much water stored at this time, only enough for one person to bathe.

So Chu Yao gave it to Jiang Anning and let her go in to wash.

Jiang Anning didn't pay so much attention to it, and said: "I'll just clean it a little, and you might as well take a bath later! After all, you are pampered, and you can't sleep without taking a bath!"

Chu Yao sneered, Jiang Anning was right, he really didn't suffer any hardships in life.

Even if he was expelled from Cloud City back then, it was a departure from the front and back!

Jiang Anning quickly washed up, and after returning to the room, he lay down on the bed and slept.

Chu Yao also washed quickly, and it didn't take long for him to come back.

Lifted the thin blanket and lay down beside her, reaching out to take her into his arms.

Jiang Anning was uncomfortable sleeping in his arms, struggled for a while and said, "You washed it so quickly?"

It's never been so fast!

"There's no water," Chu Yao said.

Jiang Anning sneered: "Then did you wash it clean?"

Chu Yao asked in a low voice, "Why don't you check it?"

Jiang Anning hurriedly shook his head: "Forget it, the black light is blind and you can't see clearly." ”

"But," Jiang Anning said again, "the living conditions here are really difficult, haven't you thought about improving them?"

"It's always been like this, the cheapest workers, the hardest living conditions, but the most precious gems in the world. Actually, the environment is much better now than before, and I'm slowly improving, after all, this was ten years ago, and most of them were like this. If I'm too different, it raises suspicions. ”

"You're afraid that people will find out that you're a born-again person and pull you to do research?"

"I'm afraid that someone will find out and take me away, and I won't be able to take care of you when the time comes. Chu Yao stroked her hair.

Jiang Anning scoffed in the dark, she wished that he would be taken away so that she would not have to escape.

With her life experience, it is not a problem to live a prosperous life in Cloud City.

"Go to bed early, and come out with me tomorrow. Chu Yao said.

Jiang Anning closed his eyes.

In fact, she doesn't want to sleep now, she slept halfway on the road, how can she still be sleepy at this time?

And the jet lag hasn't been reversed yet, and the thought of suddenly running so far away makes her still a little panicked.

However, Chu Yao wanted to sleep, so she had to close her eyes.

I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep, but I don't know why, I fell asleep in Chu Yao's arms.

And I have no dreams all night, and I sleep very sweetly!

The next morning, she got up refreshed and stretched.

Chu Yao asked her to wash up first, and then come over for breakfast.

Jiang Anning went out with a basin, washed it and came over to eat, and the breakfast was very rich.

In addition to some local specialties, there is also Chinese food, and it is not easy to see steamed bun fritters here.

"There's still this. Jiang Anning said.

Chu Yao said: "I'm afraid that you won't be used to eating the food here, so I prepared Chinese food for you." ”

Jiang Anning saw a lot of meat dishes early in the morning, and he was indeed a little disgusted. She was really not used to letting her eat so much meat early in the morning.

So I only tasted a little bit of the special food here, and I honestly drank a bowl of porridge and ate a bun.

After breakfast, Chu Yao took her down to the mine.

"Is it safe?" Jiang Anning asked again and again before going down.

Chu Yao said: "Rest assured, safe." ”

Jiang Anning was beating a drum in his heart, ordinary mines are prone to accidents, how can he guarantee a certain safety.

So, before going down, she insisted on calling her mother. didn't say where she was, she said that she was on a business trip, and there was something for her to find a dialect.

Chi Lan asked anxiously: "An Ning, why did I hear that your words were a little unlucky, is something wrong?"

"What can be unlucky, Mom, don't curse me? I'm working on a big project here, don't say anything unlucky. Jiang Anning said unhappily.

Chi Lan hurriedly "bah" twice over there and apologized to her: "I'm sorry, my mother said the wrong thing, it must be auspicious, there are no taboos." ”

"That's a good word for you. Jiang Anning said with a smile.

Hanging up the phone, she called Fang Yan again, saying that in case she couldn't go back if something happened, let Fang Yan give all the money to her mother. But don't give all at once, give slowly.

Fang Yan was even more frightened, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Jiang, what happened to you?

Jiang Anning thought to himself, you can't come here if you want to! This is in South Africa.

"It's okay, I'll just tell you, I'll go back tomorrow, don't worry. After that, he hung up the phone.

She deliberately avoided Chu Yao's call, and now after making the call, she walked back and gave the phone to Chu Yao.

Chu Yao didn't ask her who she called or what she said, put on a hard hat for her and take her down.

Jiang Anning thought that there must be a lot of diamonds under the diamond mine, and the shiny ones would be particularly beautiful.

When I went down, I realized that there was nothing to see at all, it was all black rock walls and stones, and I didn't see where there were diamonds.

Chu Yao saw that she was bored, and said, "I'll take you to see the diamond processing factory." ”

"Well, you can check this out. Jiang Anning said.

After the two of them went up, someone arranged for them to get an off-road vehicle and take them to the diamond processing factory.

Jiang Anning saw a lot of beautiful diamonds here, and they were very shiny and beautiful.

In fact, Jiang Anning has not been too enthusiastic about this, and the glass balls are also good-looking, but the value is different.

She ran a jewelry store and studied diamonds.

The person in charge here came over with a plate and said that she was asked to pick two.

She tugged at it and picked out two that weren't too big, but the color was excellent.

The person in charge gave her a thumbs up and said something to Chu Yao in words she didn't understand.

Chu Yao lowered his voice and said to her: "He praised you for your great vision, and you deserve to be the boss lady." ”

"The second sentence was added by yourself!" Jiang Anning exposed him.

Although she couldn't understand what the man was saying, she could still hear what he said.

Chu Yao chuckled, looked at her hand again and said, "It's really good-looking, what are you going to do, a ring or an ornament?"

"I think about it and then I decide. Jiang Anning said.

"Whatever you want, but two is enough?"

"Enough, of course enough. ”

After Jiang Anning finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, and immediately said, "Is there a processing place here?" I want to make it as soon as possible. ”

"In such a hurry?"

"Hmm," Jiang Anning nodded.

"So what do you want to do?"

"Make rings, diamond rings. ”

"But I don't wear a diamond ring. Chu Yao said.

Jiang Anning said: "Whoever wears it for you, you can help me make two rings, which are exactly the same." The two stones look very similar, so the style of the ring is also made exactly the same. ”

"Who are you going to give it to?" Chu Yao asked funny.

Jiang Anning straightened his face and said unhappily: "Didn't you say that it was given to me? How to deal with it is my own business, why are you asking so much." ”

"Okay, I won't ask, is there anything special about the style? If not, I'll let people do it according to the current fashion. Chu Yao said.

"No, you just have to look at it. Jiang Anning became very good again.

After visiting the factory, the two took the car back, and this time they went back to make a special circle.

Although life here is hard, the environment is still beautiful. It is all pure natural and pollution-free, as far as the eye can see, the blue sky is full of white clouds, patches of green grass are shining, and there is an endless emptiness that can not be seen at a glance, and people's hearts are enlarged.

At this point, it seems that all the previous narrow-mindedness has become insignificant!

At this moment, Jiang Anning still had the idea in his heart that he should let go of those hatred calculations and live this life in peace.

Thinking of the tragic experience before death and the comparison between the present, if you don't cherish it, it will be a waste of the opportunity given to her by God!

"What do you want?" Chu Yao asked, rubbing her hair.

Jiang Anning turned his head and didn't answer him, but asked him, "How did you die in your last life?"

Chu Yao: "......"

"It's not a good memory, don't mention it. ”

"Then have you ever thought that in this life, you have a unique advantage over others and can live a better life than others. Shouldn't you live well and don't be too obsessed with everything? ”

"What exactly do you want to express?" Chu Yao asked amusedly.

Jiang Anning said earnestly: "What I want to express is that except for life and death, nothing else in this world is a big deal. A lot of things can be let go, such a long life, you haven't thought about changing someone to love?"

"What do you mean? You want me to replace you?"

Jiang Anning thought to himself, I don't want you to change me, I want you to change Chu Yanxi. That way, you don't have to stare at me as a living being.

"Anyway...... It is to let you look at the point, and don't force everything. If this doesn't work, just change it, there's no need to drill the horns. Jiang Anning explained casually.

Chu Yao shook his head, didn't ask her again, and looked into the distance with her.

They left by plane in the afternoon, and it was midnight when they returned to Cloud City.

Although he was not tired, Jiang Anning felt very tired, and when he got home, he took a comfortable shower, and continued to sleep on the bed.

The next day she slept until 10 p.m. and didn't get up until 10 p.m.

As soon as I woke up and looked at everything familiar around me, there was a moment of confusion!

Rubbing his eyes, he sat up, was stunned for a while before going to wash, changed his clothes and went downstairs.

"Where's the gentleman?" After Jiang Anning went downstairs, Steward Wu asked someone to bring her breakfast, and she asked casually.

Now the servants in the family are all called Mr. Chu Yao.

There is only one owner surnamed Chu left in the family, so it is naturally much easier to distinguish.

Steward Wu hurriedly replied: "Mr. went to work, saying that he would not come back for dinner tonight, and you don't have to wait for him at night." ”

"Whoever has to wait for him, I have a job myself, and I don't come back to eat at night. Jiang Anning said.

Steward Wu nodded.

After breakfast, Jiang Anning asked the driver to take her to the company.

Fang Yan burst into tears as soon as he saw her, and he was terrified when she made the phone call, always afraid that something would happen to Jiang Anning.

"I'd be fine if you came back safely. The tongue said.

Jiang Anning patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I still have so much money to spend, and I must live well." ”

"Don't say such unlucky things. The tongue said unhappily.

"Okay, okay, I won't say. By the way, how about the things you are doing?" Jiang Anning asked.

Fang Yan looked around, gave her a look, and the two went to the office.

As soon as I entered, I closed the door, took out an analysis report to show her, and said: "The results are out, it is a very ordinary vitamin, which helps sleep and calms the nerves, and there are no other ingredients." ”

Jiang Anning frowned, there were no other ingredients?

Could it be that Chu Yao found something, so he had to change it for her?

"Mr. Jiang, where did you get this?" asked Fang Yan.

Jiang Anning said: "You don't have to care, and you don't need to know. Don't tell anyone about it, it's rotting in your stomach. I will continue to do the other things I have told you, and do it in a more subtle way. ”

The dialect nodded.

Jiang Anning let him go out, took the analysis report and read it for a while, and finally tore up the analysis report and threw it in the trash.

Maybe Chu Yao was worried that she would find out, so he gave her a bottle of normal.

But none of this matters, what matters is why Chu Yanxi hasn't asked her out yet?

Jiang Anning couldn't wait, so he had to call Wei Ping, and he didn't ask for a reason after talking for a while.

"Sister Wei, if you're not busy, let's go shopping tomorrow!" Jiang Anning couldn't ask anything, but he didn't want to arouse Wei Ping's suspicion, so he had to propose.

Wei Ping said regretfully: "Not tomorrow, tomorrow I will go to teach Miss Chu a lesson." ”

"Ah, there will be a class tomorrow, don't you say once a month?" Jiang Anning asked.

Wei Ping said: "Yes, it was originally a class for the first two days. But Miss Chu was not in good health a few days ago, so she delayed. Call me today and say I'm feeling better and ask me to go to her class tomorrow. She's going to practice a tune, saying she's going to give someone a birthday present, and she wants me to give her two lessons this month. ”

Jiang Anning thought to herself, it turned out that she hadn't seen Chu Yanxi yet, no wonder Chu Yanxi didn't see her.

But after such a long time, I don't know if Wei Ping will tell Chu Yanxi about herself.

So he said: "Then wait for Sister Wei to get out of class, let's go shopping again, anyway, it's more lively to go shopping at night, I'll pick you up when the time comes." ”

"Okay, thank you. Wei Ping said.

Jiang Anning hung up the phone with a smile.

Practice a song for someone as a birthday present?

If she remembers correctly, it will be Chu Yao's birthday in a few days.

It seems that the song she wants to practice is for Chu Yao!

"An Ning, are you there? I'll look for you. ”

The mobile phone rang, Jiang Anning connected, it was Zhao Yi calling.

Jiang Anning thought for a while and said, "Don't come to me, let's make an appointment with us, it's best not to let people know that we meet frequently." ”

"Ah, why?" Zhao Yi asked.

Jiang Anning said silently in his heart, it wasn't because Chu Yao sent someone to follow him. But she didn't say this to Zhao Yi, so as not to scare him.

The two made an appointment in a restaurant, Jiang Anning booked a private room and went in first, and Zhao Yi came in later while no one was paying attention.

After Zhao Yi entered, he couldn't help but complain: "How can this be like an underground party joint, it's too mysterious!"

"No way, it's best not to let too many people know that I have frequent contact with you, so as not to get you into trouble. Jiang Anning said.

Zhao Yi asked in surprise: "Could it be that Chu Yao sent someone to follow you?"

Jiang Anning: "......"

"Did he really send someone to follow you? Zhao Yi stood up angrily.

Jiang Anning looked up at him speechlessly.

Zhao Yi also felt that he was too excited, took a deep breath and sat down again and said, "An Ning, this man can't do it, he actually sent someone to follow you." What kind of behavior is this? This is scumbag behavior. ”

"Why did he rise to a scumbag, maybe he cares about me. Jiang Anning said.

"What cares about you, this possessiveness is terrible. Are you willing to let him spy on you like this for the rest of your life?" Zhao Yi pouted.

Jiang Anning rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "Why have you been involved for a lifetime, okay, I called you here today to have something, not to talk nonsense with you." ”

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yi asked with a snort.

Jiang Anning covered his face: "I said it wrong, you asked me to come over for something, what else do you ask me?"

Zhao Yi: "......"

"I'm sorry, I almost forgot. He quickly laughed and apologized.

"That's right," Zhao Yi said, "You asked me to go to Chu Yao's hometown to check on him, and I found out for you." I had people go to every corner of their hometown, and I inquired a lot before I found out. ”

"Then what have you found?" Jiang Anning asked.

Zhao Yi snorted and said, "I really don't know if I don't check, I'm shocked when I check it." Guess what, what did I find? He had a childhood sweetheart. ”

"Childhood sweetheart? Jiang Anning frowned.

Zhao Yi said: "Childhood sweethearts are good girls who grew up together, and they were made together when they were young. I heard that if the girl hadn't been lost, Chu Yao would have been married by now. Chu Yao's mother liked that girl very much. ”

"There is still such a thing, whose child is that girl?" Jiang Anning asked curiously.

The Chu family is a famous family, and Chu Yao's mother is actually the daughter of a famous family in Jiangnan. The girl who can play with Chu Yao and is liked by Chu Yao's mother must not be an ordinary person.

"It's the Shangjing Xiao family. ”

"Shangjing Xiao's family?" Jiang Anning frowned.

Zhao Yi thought that she didn't know who the Xiao family in Shangjing was, and explained to her: "There are some wealthy families in every place, and Shangjing is no exception, and there are four of the most famous, commonly known as the four major families." And this Xiao family is one of the four major families. ”

"In that case, how could this girl from the Xiao family be raised in the south?"
