Chapter 17 Return Gift
Zhan Bai smiled: "I can't cook, but I can make coffee anyway, you wait, it's going to be good soon!" β
"Hmm!" Ximen Jinlian went to the bathroom to wash her hands, looked in the mirror by the way, and tidied up her clothes. But after a while, sure enough, there was a doorbell at the door.
Zhan Bai didn't wait for Ximen Jinlian to speak, so he ran over to open the door.
Lin Xuanlan stood at the door, and the moment she saw Zhanbai, she was stunned again? This person is working as a nanny, and the nanny is wearing Armani? Is he outdated, or is the nanny now making surprisingly high incomes? Immediately, he began to look at Zhanbai almost instinctively, with long hair on his forehead, covering some sharp eyes, about 1.80 meters tall, and his body shape is standard, overall, this is a good-looking man......
"Mr. Lin?" Zhan Bai also looked at Lin Xuanlan for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and asked.
Lin Xuanlan nodded and asked, "What do you call Mr?" β
"Zhanbai!" Zhan Bai briefly spat out two words from his mouth and made a "please" gesture.
Lin Xuanlan walked into the living room, saw that Ximen Jinlian had already greeted her, and asked with a smile: "Why does Brother Lin have time to come and sit today?" β
"Come and see you, and give this back to you by the way!" Lin Xuanlan said as she took out the golden silk red phoenix brooch from her pocket, handed it to her and smiled.
"Oh...... Nothing! Ximen Jinlian took it and put it aside, while Zhan Bai walked over with two cups of coffee.
"Besides, this is what my grandfather asked me to give you!" Lin Xuanlan handed a flat rectangular brocade box to Ximen Jinlian.
Ximen Jinlian was stunned, what did his grandfather give her? Driven by curiosity, she still opened the brocade box, inside the box was a pair of Fu Lushou's jade bracelets, the texture and color of the ice species were harmonious, and the transition was perfect, although it was not a glass species, it was also rare. The standard red, yellow and green colors are pure and tight.
"Why did you give me such a valuable gift for no reason?" Although Ximen Jinlian understood a little in her heart, she couldn't help but ask.
"My grandfather said, you can't accept your heavy gift for no reason, this is a return gift, so you must accept it, otherwise, I won't be able to explain it when I go back." Lin Xuanlan said with a smile, but there was some bitterness in his heart, yesterday's grandfather's giant jade wool was completely cut down, and the stone was wiped out, and almost all the green was swallowed by ringworm, and then, Old Man Lin was also considered to be broken, cutting it from the middle, but the performance inside was still like this......
Jade is entangled, and it is difficult to distinguish each other!
Old man Lin couldn't stand this blow, he was a little uncomfortable on the spot, and he went to the hospital early this morning, although he was not seriously ill or painful, but his spirit was very bad.
Despite this, early this morning, I still instructed Lin Xuanlan to take some time to give this pair of Fu Lushou's bracelets to Ximen Jinlian, he is an old man, how can he not understand the meaning of Ximen Jinlian? Giving a heavy gift, it is natural to count on her to be alone in the magic capital, and there is something that the Lin family can take care of.
However, it was only yesterday that Ximen Jinlian came with Qin Hao, in the magic capital, on this acre of three points of land, since the Qin family intervened, it was not the turn of Old Man Lin to speak, but if the gift was not accepted, it would be returned in its original form, and I was afraid that Ximen Jinlian's face would not look good, and it would be considered a complete evil, so it was better to take out valuables and return gifts.
Although Ximen Jinlian didn't know that the reason why Old Man Lin returned the gift was because the Qin family was involved, after thinking about it, he had already understood, and nodded: "You say so, if I don't accept it, I will really live up to Grandpa Lin's kindness." β
"That's exactly what you say!" Lin Xuanlan said with a smile, "In addition, you also know that after the Myanmar jadeite market, there will be a lot of jadeite wool that will flow into the country, therefore, these days Jieyang and Pingzhou are lively, I am going to go over and take a walk, by the way to buy some jadeite raw materials, I don't know if you are interested in going over to see?" β
Ximen Jinlian naturally also knew that almost all of the big gambling stone markets in China were in Guangzhou, Jieyang, Pingzhou, Tengchong and other places, so he immediately nodded and said: "Since this is the case, let's go over and have a look!" I'm idle anyway, when are you going to go? β
"The day after tomorrow!" Lin Xuanlan said, "I'll go with Grandpa Zhu." β
"Well, the one who helped Grandpa Lin solve the stone yesterday?" Ximen Jinlian asked.
Lin Xuanlan nodded and said with a smile: "Exactly, he is also an old-timer who gambles on stones, follow along, you can just help take a look, I'll call you the day after tomorrow?" β
Ximen Jinlian nodded and smiled, then said no more, Lin Xuanlan also got up to say goodbye, Zhanbai sent him out, turned around and came in, frowned and asked, "You obviously know that Lin Xuanlan wants to use you, why do you still agree to go to gambling with him?" β
Ximen Jinlian stood up and stretched, and said with a smile: "It's one thing for him to use me, it's another thing for me to be used by him, and besides, I'm about to get moldy at home, and I want to go out for a walk." Besides, aren't you boasting about your skills? With you by my side, what am I afraid of? β
"Are you going to let him use it?" Zhan Bai asked with a smile.
Ximen Jinlian put the pair of Fu Lushou's bracelets on her wrists, looked at the effect, the bracelets looked a little old-fashioned, relatively speaking, in this hot summer, she liked the verdant turquoise even more, and it felt refreshing to wear it.
"What do you say?" Ximen Jinlian asked with a smile.
"If you know and send him to the door, unlessβyou really like him." Zhan Bai said with a smile.
"Fuck off!" Ximen Jinlian scolded with a smile, "Am I so stupid? β
Seeing her like this, Zhan Bai couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, so he didn't make a sound, while Ximen Jinlian licked his lips and asked, "Xiaobai, you have been busy in the kitchen for a long time, is this-lunch delicious?" I'm hungry. β
Zhanbai couldn't help but exclaim when she said this: "Oops, my sweet and sour pork ribs!" Immediately, almost in a flash, Ximen Jinlian lost his shadow in front of him.
"That's a lot of speed!" Ximen Jinlian smiled, at this time, her mobile phone actually rang again, she took the phone and looked at it, but it was Qin Hao's phone.
"Hello?" Ximen Jinlian pressed the answer button.
"Jin Lian, are you free at night? There is an auction in Jinding tonight, all of which are good things, are you interested in taking a look? Qin Hao's hearty laughter came through his mobile phone.
Ximen Jinlian thought about it, anyway, it was okay at night, so she went to the auction to open her eyes, and immediately nodded and said, "I'm idle every day!" β
"Then I'll pick you up in the evening, bye!" On the other side, Qin Hao hung up the phone with a smile.
