"Miss Yan, please sign the form." Zhuang Yuanyuan, a small assistant in the personnel department, brought a business trip allowance list to Yan Juan to sign.

"Just make a phone call and let me come over, how can you = come and run this trip?" Yan Juan smiled embarrassedly and signed his name casually.

"I think Miss Yan must be very busy, and I just happened to go up to find someone, so I came to Miss Yan to sign first." Zhuang Yuanyuan is as his name suggests, with a baby face that can still be cute. Although it is not a popular classical beauty 'woman', it can also be called a beautiful woman with dignified facial features.

"I'm sorry for you." Yan Juan said politely.

"You're welcome." Zhuang Yuanyuan smiled and waved his hand, and left briskly.

"When did the people in the HR department become so talkative?" Yan Juan asked Liu Xiangling, who happened to be beside her to help sort out the documents.

"They also have to look at people!" Liu Xiangling sorted out the design drafts into 'categories', and said disappreciatively, "If you change someone, you can make a phone call to inform you, which will be considered a big face." Now you don't know who you are? Although he is not a director, the treatment is about the same, and he is the future president's wife, who dares not to pat your ass! ”

"Xiang Ling, between me and the president, we haven't reached that ...... yet"

"People with eyes, who can't see that the president is not married to you!" Liu Xiangling said quickly, "If you want to say that you are on this business trip, you can leave so suddenly that you don't 'hand' over to us, and we will run to your house to ring the 'door' bell." ”

Yan Juan smiled apologetically: "I left in too much hurry......"

She was packed and tied up directly to Zhejiang, where is the time to calmly 'hand' over official business? It's just that she didn't want to talk to Liu Xiangling about the kidnapping, so she just laughed it off.

Because he left for two days, Yan Juan received a call from Yan Yixin before getting off work, and he had to work overtime today. Let her go back and rest first.

"Anyway, I still have work at hand that I haven't finished, so I might as well accompany you to work overtime." Yan Juan said with a smile.

"Okay, bring the paper and brushes to my office." Yan Yixin readily agreed.

"I mean I'm here to accompany you to work overtime, I won't go to your office, there are a lot of people, I don't know what will be rumored about you tomorrow!" Yan Juan subconsciously refused.

"It's okay, I'll come back after work in a while, I'll order two takeouts, you come up and eat." Yan Yixin's voice was gentle.

"I'm still more comfortable sitting in my office." Yan Juan refused with a smile, "And Xiang Ling also has to work overtime with me, she has been working hard to draw pictures recently." ”

"I'm begging you for some advice, but it's true." Yan Yixin's tone was relaxed and joking, "Okay, I won't force you, lest you feel uncomfortable, you could have completed the work in an hour, but it was dragged into three hours." ”

Yan Juan smiled and closed the line, and Liu Xiangling went to the company restaurant to eat a little 'messy', and then went back to the office to work hard.

Liu Xiangling's painting skills have improved a lot, at least there is no problem at all in dealing with these pictures.

"Hey, what are you drawing?" Liu Xiangling probed curiously.

"It's just a 'messy' drawing, and the light rain pomegranate 'flower' ......" Yan Juan's heart moved, thinking of the flames that reflected the green trees red that day, and felt that the pencil in his palm was also hot.

Heaven and earth, there is nothing that cannot be painted, and nothing cannot be the inspiration for design.

"You're so good at drawing." Liu Xiangling said enviously, "The children in our mountain village have never had any interest classes. I saw a lot of children complaining that I didn't learn anything when I was a child, and as soon as school was over, I had to rush home to help with the work, and I couldn't do my homework until it was completely dark and I couldn't see the road. ”

"I was fine when I was a child, and as long as I wanted to learn, my mother would always try to satisfy me." Yan Juan thought of when he was a child, he had to 'pay' eighty yuan for a piano lesson. At the time, she didn't know that it was a heavy burden on their financial situation.

"Pity the parents of the world, listen to you, your family is not rich."

"Well, not rich at all." Yan Juan nodded, "And we still have to repay the loan, but fortunately we survived." ”

"But even if we want to, we can't." Liu Xiangling bit her lip, "You people in the city can go to work and work part-time, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, you can always make more money." But in our hometown, there is no factory, no company, and the only income is to sell a little 'chicken' eggs and mountain goods during the market. ”

Yan Juan couldn't help but smile: "Are we remembering the bittersweet and sweet?" ”

Liu Xiangling couldn't help laughing: "Actually, I have never told others about my family, because I always feel inferior, so I desperately want to get close to the people in the city in terms of dress." However, now that I have a regular income every month, I don't have to pay my tuition at home, and I can save a little bit and send it back. ”

"Can you send it back?" Yan Juan asked in surprise.

"yes, sometimes you can save a little bit." Liu Xiangling nodded seriously, "Although it's not much, but my heart, so I think this job is very promising, not to mention like you in the future, you can also be well-off and support my younger siblings to study." ”

Everyone has a responsibility on their shoulders.

Liu Xiangling has lost the vanity of being overwhelmed when she first arrived in the bustling city, but she is more calm and confident.

"...... if needed"

"No, I'm living well now, really." Liu Xiangling said hurriedly, "If there is a need, I will speak." ”

Yan Juan nodded, she could understand Liu Xiangling's feelings, just as she was not willing to accept other people's gifts easily. Sometimes, the poor are far more money-sensitive than the rich.

"By the way, the company's natural pair of marriage and love diamond rings are out of stock again." Liu Xiangling excitedly told her, "Yan Juan, your promotion to deputy director is just around the corner." ”

"It's not that easy." Yan Wan smiled, "It's just a small idea to please you." Besides, the 'Made to Match' collection wasn't designed just by me. ”

"But you came up with the idea!" Liu Xiangling sighed, "When, I also have a golden head, just come up with a few golden ideas." ”

"It's just a coincidence. Seriously, I was doing it at the diamond counter for so long, and it was still very good for me to design gemstones. ”

"There are a lot of people standing at the counter, and I haven't seen a few designers." Liu Xiangling looked at her with eyes bordering on adoration, even though they were the same age.

"It's getting late, let's call it a day." Yan Juan interrupted her praise, in fact, her rise has some ingenious ingredients, at the beginning, where did she get so much inspiration, and it was not a wholesale design for future generations?

At this time, Yan Juan was still secretly glad that he was not interested in jewelry in his previous life, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Otherwise, maybe she is still selling those classic styles of later generations.

"Okay," Liu Xiangling agreed, and said with annoyance. "It's time to go back, or I'll have to climb the school 'gate' again. Originally, there was an iron fence that was sawn off, and there was just a person who could calmly get in, but there was a big fat man who was stuck in the middle and couldn't get in or out, and as a result, the security guards were brought in! ”

Yan Juan couldn't help laughing: "This fat man is going to cause public outrage, even if he can't get in, he will hurt a lot of students who are wandering outside and returning late!" ”

"Isn't it? It's okay to be so fat, why are you doing that! Liu Xiangling scolded fiercely, "I heard that there are a lot of diamonds with names, and some diamonds are not big, why can they be sold at a high price?" ”

"The more stories a diamond has on it, the more valuable it is. If the provenance of the diamond is verifiable, the value is particularly noble. Behind the world's top ten famous diamonds, there are many stories, and there are many celebrities connected with them. ”

"I thought diamonds were all about weight, clarity and color!"

"Generally speaking, that's the case, but some of the top ten diamonds and the like have exceeded their own value."

"By the way, in the past two days, the Kailuo Hotel has been exhibiting a twenty-carat black diamond, are you interested in taking a look?" When the two of them walked out of the building, Liu Xiangling suddenly stood up, "It is said that this is the largest black diamond in the world." Priceless. ”

"Listen to them, black diamonds are generally not valuable, most of them are industrial grade. There are only a few black diamonds with a brilliant luster. But twenty carats. Far from being the largest in the world. In the last century, a black diamond was exhibited in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, weighing 42 carats. ”

"Ah, so they're lying?" Liu Xiangling said hatefully, "I thought that black diamonds were worth more than white diamonds, didn't I say that colored diamonds were more valuable?" ”

"Because of their scarcity, the price of fancy color diamonds remains high. However, gem-quality black diamonds are not as good as other colored diamonds. I think the exhibition of black diamonds in the hotel should be just an advertising gimmick! ”

"Probably ......"

"Still, I want to see the black diamond, it's too late today, let's go and see it tomorrow during the day, maybe I'll catch some inspiration."

"Okay, I'll take you." Liu Xiangling was elated, "Let's go and debunk their scam!" ”

"Others are just doing business and attracting guests, and there is no need to go to the bad people's financial path. Anyway, it's not for sale, it's just for exhibition. Yan Juan smiled and shook her head, she is not a chivalrous 'girl', if she has such a head, she may be hunted down and killed in the end!

"I said, white diamonds have hundreds of carats, how can black diamonds be the king at twenty carats!"

Yan Juan corrected her: "The Cullinan white diamond, the rough stone weighs more than 3,000 carats. Even after splitting, the largest rough stone weighed two kilograms. ”

“？”

"Yes."

"Then our diamonds, all of which are one carat or something, are sold for seventy or eighty thousand, hundreds of thousands, so it stands to reason that they are not worth the price, right?"

"Diamonds meet the three characteristics of gemstones, and with the support of noble ladies, it is difficult to be as expensive as it is not. However, the utilization rate of white diamonds is only 40%, and if it is a pear shape, the loss is even greater. After the No. 1 in the warehouse was processed into 74 pear-shaped diamonds, only more than 500 carats remained. ”

"That's not a good deal!" Liu Xiangling shook her head, "It's not as good as a round and multi-faceted shape, there are still eight hundred carats left!" ”

"At that time, there was no bright cut with 58 sides." Yan Juan explained, "Cullinan was processed and polished in 1098. You go to the subway station, I'm here. ”

"Ah, I've got to run, or I'll not be able to catch the subway." Liu Xiangling exclaimed, waved his hand, and threw Yan Wan's "goodbye" behind his ears.

Yan Yixin's workload is obviously very large, and there is no movement to come back at ten o'clock in the evening. Yan Juan was a little suspicious, he went back to the Yan family's old house directly, but on the mobile phone screen, it was always quiet.

Accustomed to getting along with him day and night, the taste of being alone in an empty room actually feels a little lonely. The pencil draws left and right on the paper, and there is always no better efficiency to go.

My ears were pricked up, for fear of missing the sound of the lock of the 'door' being twisted open. Fidgeting and watching the short needle on his wrist point to the position of twelve o'clock, he finally couldn't help but dial Yan Yixin's phone.

"Oh my God, Juan, I didn't know it was the middle of the night. Wait for me, I'll be home in ten minutes. Yan Yixin's voice made Yan Juan dumbfounded. Does he want to do everything in one go?

It was said to be ten minutes, but it actually took only eight minutes.

At this time, Yan Juan felt that the apartment was close to the company. Otherwise, you will have to suffer an hour of lovesickness in vain.

"I went home alone and didn't remind me!" As soon as Yan Yixin's key was taken out, Yan Juan stood behind the 'door', and he couldn't help but complain inch by inch.

"You're not a three-year-old, do you want me to remind you of bedtime?" Yan Wan squinted at him with half anger and half resentment, and bent down to take out his slippers, "I thought you went back to the old mansion today, so I endured it and didn't call." I'm afraid you'll fall asleep while you're busy in the office......"

"No wonder you don't call my phone, it seems that I still want to 'provoke' you to be empathetic?" Yan Yixin made a look of gritting his teeth, and Yan Juan hurriedly smiled and dodged.

"I cooked you a supper."

"What's so delicious?"

“…… Anything else? Yan Yixin's face was hopeful.

Yan Wan couldn't help but smile: "Pineapple pie." ”

"What else?"

"And blueberry pie, of course."

Yan Yixin glared at her: "It's all sweet? Is this for yourself, or for me? No wonder you haven't slept yet, you wanted me to accompany you to cavities your teeth! ”

Yan Juan finally giggled, floated out lightly like a butterfly, and floated towards the kitchen: "There are crystal xiaolong and seafood siu mai that you like." ”

Yan Yixin chased to the kitchen: "Deliberately teasing me, it's very fulfilling, right?" ”

Yan Juan looked back and chuckled: "You go take a bath, I'm hot in the pot, and it's just right for you to come out." ”

"When did you steam it, and it's not ready yet?" Yan Yixin asked suspiciously.

"About half-past nine, I just came back and it was steaming. Who knows that there is no one left and right, and it is cold at night, so now you can reheat it again. ”

"Original...... You're still waiting for me, and you're fidgeting. ”

Yan Juan blushed: "Who is fidgeting?" Don't put gold on your face! ”

"Left, right, etc., isn't this obvious? Swaying from side to side, can you still be safe? Yan Yixin opened the bathroom 'door' and found that his bathrobes had been neatly folded on the countertop.

At the supper on the table, there was no pie, only a bowl of siu mai, a plate of xiaolong, and a bowl of multigrain porridge.

"Okay, now I've learned to cheat!" Yan Yixin smiled and took her over, and the two of them sat densely on the same chair.

"Just kidding, you know I'm not going to be a kid." Yan Wanbian's mouth was flat, "It's too crowded, there are still five chairs, don't you need to be so economical, right?" ”

"Low-state life!" Yan Yixin put a small cage into her mouth.

Yan Juan protested vaguely: "Then you go to bed earlier at night and don't light the lamp, it's a low state." ”

Yan Yixin smiled, and also stuffed a xiaolongbao into his mouth. Nowadays, the quick-frozen food is very 'fine', and this kind of xiaolongbao should really be called Xiaoxiaolong, one bite at a time, just right.

"By the way, I counted your two days in Zhejiang as a business trip, and tomorrow you go to the personnel department to fill out a list." When he was half-full, Yan Yixin stopped his chopsticks, suddenly remembered his arrangement, and hurriedly 'handed over'.

Yan Juan smiled bitterly: "You only reminded me now that someone from the personnel department has personally come over to let me sign the form." ”

"It's a good job!" Yan Yixin looked down at her and smiled inexplicably, "It seems that there are already people who can't wait to shoot the future boss's ass." ”

Yan Juan tilted his head: "What nonsense...... I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet! ”

"It's already been scratched, and there's only a little bit left underneath. Don't worry, in two years, I can't wait to marry you. You know, you're still young, and I'm going to be an old man. ”

Yan Juan couldn't cry or laugh: "You don't have to belittle yourself so much, right?" A man is still a dense tree at forty, especially a proud son like you, who will be chased by 'women' when they reach old age. ”

"All I want is you." Yan Yixin's 'lips' fell on her 'lips'. Because I just ate xiao long bao, there is a bright oil paint on the 'lips', which is extraordinarily smooth and delicate.

"Ah, I'm going to brush my teeth." Yan Juan jumped up, but with an "ah" sound, he stroked the top of his head.

"My jaw has somehow suffered!" Yan Yixin smiled bitterly.

"I'll brush my teeth first." Yan Juan felt that she was at a loss, and slipped directly into the bathroom, and after a while, she heard her voice raise again, "You treat the two days I disappeared like this as a business trip, is it considered a fake public welfare 'private', and a power for 'personal gain'?" ”

"How can this be counted? Didn't you discover an ammolite mine? Judging by the two pieces of ammolite in your mother's hand, it may be that this source is even better than we expected. Is that not a tolerance? ”

"That's good, I'm afraid you'll be criticized for it. In fact, two days is nothing, so you won't be punished on your back," Yan Juan put his mind at ease.

"Don't worry, even if I want to fake the public and 'private', I won't have such a small appetite, right? According to the official seal, you can be regarded as a business trip. ”

"It's good that you don't show favoritism, otherwise I will feel like I love to be cheap."

Yan Yixin smiled: "You are originally greedy for small gains, but you often let go of big bargains." ”

Yan Juan glared at him: "The bathroom is given to you." ”

"What did you do when you came back alone at night?" When Yan Yixin walked over, he hooked her into his arms.

"Ah, yes, my entry has already been conceived!"
