Chapter 400: Missing
For the first three days, the eldest lady was quite peaceful, she shut herself in her room almost every day, rarely went out, and the other people in the house did not interfere with the river water, and she was like a stranger.
The Yang Yan clan went into retreat the day after Ouyang Qing returned to China, and he left Su Xinyuan with a sufficient amount of elixirs and the secret book of the Nine Yang Heart Method except for the last volume.
Su Xinyuan can't even comprehend the sixth volume of the Jiuyang Mind Method now, let alone the seventh and eighth volumes. He just read through the two volumes, got a general idea, memorized the main points, and then moved on to strengthening his body.
Early in the morning of the fourth day, when he finally finished the 50-kilometer weight-bearing run and sat down on a chair on campus to rest, the conversation between the two female students caught his attention.
"Have you heard? The latest creation of Ms. Tiffany's latest creation, 'Angel Heart', will be exhibited for the first time in Houston! ”
"The 'Angel Heart' is said to be a crown specially made for the upcoming wedding of Prince William and the princess-to-be of England, and the most dazzling diamond of 99 carats is the largest crown diamond other than the 108.93 carat Koh-i-Noor diamond in the Queen's crown, and in addition to this, this crown also uses a large number of platinum and red, blue and green primary color gemstones......"
"What a envy of that lucky princess-to-be! If only someone had given me such a crown! ”
"Don't dream about you!"
"Humph! What girl doesn't like to dream? What girl doesn't love gems anymore? ”
It was this last sentence that made Su Xinyuan enlightened - what girl doesn't like to dream? What girl doesn't love gemstones?
Su Xinyuan suddenly thought that Lixiang and Tang Xin had been by his side all the time and had experienced countless unimaginable dangers.
Even now, they still haven't fully recovered from this dangerous haze, because no one knows when Black Wing will suddenly appear again, but the two of them have never complained.
This made Su Xinyuan suddenly feel a little guilty, he felt that he should do something for the two of them?
Dreams, may not be able to realize for them, but jewelry itself is still capable.
So Su Xinyuan decided to give them a gift, which was a small surprise and a thank you to them along the way.
After returning to the villa and washing up, Su Xinyuan rarely changed into a neat suit, took his bank card worth $1.02 billion, and went out in a low-key manner.
He went straight to the largest jewelry store in downtown Houston, walking in front of all kinds of glass windows, looking at the dazzling array of jewelry, Su Xinyuan finally understood why women are obsessed with these metals and stones, at this moment, even he himself feels the charm of these metals and stones.
Su Xinyuan stopped in front of a brand-name counter, and the beautiful and generous sales lady immediately warmly received him.
"Sir, are you choosing a gift for your lover?" The sales lady asked gently.
"Nope! No! We're just good friends. Su Xinyuan hurriedly said.
"If it's just a good friend, then it's not appropriate to give a ring, so you might as well take a look at the necklace, sir." The sales lady said with a smile.
Su Xinyuan secretly sighed in his heart, the sales staff here are really well-trained, how can a small ring be worth a necklace? But fortunately, he is not short of this money, as long as he can make Lixiang and Tang Xin happy, it is worth it.
The sales lady took out a platinum ruby necklace and said: "The ruby symbolizes eternity and passion, it is a symbol of friendship, it is perfect for a female friend, and this ruby is the most ...... from Africa."
Su Xinyuan shook his head, and said not particularly satisfied: "Is there anything more elegant?" ”
Although this ruby necklace is bright and attractive, it is far from Lixiang's cold and arrogant temperament, and it cannot match Tang Xin's innocence and simplicity.
The sales lady immediately changed to another one, which made Su Xinyuan's eyes light up.
The pendant of this platinum necklace is translucent, like jade, like the dew of frost on a winter morning, although not as bright and moving as a ruby, but it has an indescribable cold and silent beauty.
The sales lady said, "This is an ice stone produced on the top of the peak of Our Lady of the East. The original stone hidden deep in the seabed, after hundreds of millions of years of seawater erosion, due to the movement of half of the earth's crust, with the roof of the world Our Lady Peak broke out of the sea, in the peak of more than 7,000 meters above sea level, experienced hundreds of millions of years of ice, and finally formed this cold bone proud ice stone. ”
Although Su Xinyuan knew that as long as it was a hard stone, it would have hundreds of millions of years to study deeply, and the other party's rhetoric was just a well-packaged sales technique. But this ice stone necklace did match Lixiang's temperament very well, so he immediately asked the sales lady to wrap it.
The sales lady didn't expect to win a big order so quickly, and she suddenly became more enthusiastic.
"Is there a necklace that is more pure and simple?" Su Xinyuan asked.
This can make the sales lady a little difficult, because the value of the existence of jewelry is eye-catching, which is destined to have nothing to do with the word rustic.
In the end, the sales lady took out a purple chalcedony pendant necklace, the dark purple purple chalcedony is like the appearance of the shape and size of Bodhi, although there is no dazzling luster, but there is no trace of impurities, both pure and profound, as if it is natural. It's like a young girl with a lot of stories.
This necklace is not pleasing in the market, perhaps because it has neither a striking appearance nor a striking luster. But Su Xinyuan fell in love with it at a glance.
"That's it, please wrap it up for me." Su Xinyuan then asked, "Are there any suitable gifts for children?" ”
"This natural sapphire crystal hairpin is perfect for children." The sales lady smiled and took out a blue butterfly-shaped hairpin from another counter.
"Let's wrap it up together." Su Xinyuan said.
"It's a total of 83,000 US dollars, is it a credit card?" The sales lady asked.
Su Xinyuan nodded, and then took out the Federal Reserve Bank's Bald Eagle Gold Card, but he hesitated slightly.
He felt that he had brought gifts to Lixiang and the three of them, and if he hadn't brought one for Miss Ouyang Qing, it would seem a little inappropriate, so he thought that he would just pick one for her.
After the sales lady saw the bald eagle gold card in Su Xinyuan's hand, she couldn't help but be secretly taken aback, no wonder this man was so generous.
But when she saw Su Xinyuan hesitating, she thought he was still hesitating, so she hurriedly took out a rose crystal brooch with a price tag of several hundred dollars and said, "Sir, in order to thank you for your patronage, this is an extra gift that I gave you." ”
Su Xinyuan took a look, didn't Ouyang Qing's gift also have it now? Even if it's a giveaway, you have to make the most of it! So he hurriedly and happily handed over the bank card in his hand.
The sales lady took it with both hands, swiped it on the POSS machine, and after entering the amount, asked Su Xinyuan to enter the password, and then she pressed the confirmation button, but the POSS machine made a series of sharp sounds.
The sales lady tried several times in a row, but it was still the same series of voices.
"What's wrong?" Su Xinyuan asked suspiciously.
"I'm sorry sir, but you don't have enough money on this card to make any transactions!" Although the sales lady was a little disappointed, she still maintained her politeness and returned Su Xinyuan's card with both hands.
"The balance is insufficient! This...... Impossible! Su Xinyuan looked at the card in his hand and was very shocked.
"Miss, can you help me try the other machines?" Su Xinyuan said a little anxiously. At this moment, there is no way for him not to be in a hurry, this is 1.02 billion US dollars! It is also converted to more than 6000000000000 RMB, if this money is really gone, then all his previous efforts will be in vain!
"Wait a minute." The sales lady changed a few more POSS machines and tried several times, but the result was still the same, indicating that the balance was insufficient.
Su Xinyuan only felt that the sky was dark, where did the money in this card go?
The big movement here attracted the manager, and the middle-aged man with a mean face suddenly looked at Su Xinyuan's gaze from doubt to disgust and defense after listening to the sales lady explain the reason for the matter.
"I'm sorry sir, the balance on your card is insufficient, and we can't continue to serve you anymore." The manager said impatiently, "Please leave!" ”
Su Xinyuan was full of thoughts about the $1 billion thing at this time, and he had no time to think about the manager's indifferent attitude.
Just when Su Xinyuan was lost and was about to turn around and leave, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him-
"Mr. Su, why are you here?"
Su Xinyuan looked back and saw a teenager standing at the counter with a face full of surprise.
"It's you! Joey! Su Xinyuan also looked very surprised.
Isn't this teenager in front of him the computer genius Joey he once rescued from the "Sealand R&D Base" of DS New York!
Joey hurriedly walked out from behind the counter, held Su Xinyuan's arms and said excitedly, "Mr. Su, I really didn't expect to see you again!" Last time I left in such a hurry because I was so scared and wanted to get home as soon as possible, but I forgot to leave your contact information...... Do you know! I've been trying to find you all this time, but to no avail...... Now I'm finally seeing you again! That's great! ”
Seeing that the corners of Joey's eyes were glistening with tears, as well as his excited appearance, Su Xinyuan was worried about whether he was going to pounce on him at any time and kiss him......
But then again, Su Xinyuan was also very happy to be able to see Joey here again.
It is said that one of the great joys of life is to meet old acquaintances in other places, he has lived and worked with this child, and has fought fiercely with Little Kerry on the Internet together, although the time of acquaintance is very short, but how to say it is at least half an old acquaintance.
"So, your home is in Houston?" Su Xinyuan asked.
Joey nodded.
"Haven't you gone back to school now? Or do you want to work part-time here during the holidays? Su Xinyuan asked with concern.
Joey shook his head and said, "No! I'm not working part-time here, this mall is actually my family's property. ”
