Chapter 591
Lan Xiao immediately stopped old he. She pulled on old he’s sleeve and looked at the shop assistant who seemed a little aggrieved. it’s fine. Go and receive the other guests. I’ll talk to old he. You didn’t do anything wrong, so don’t mind it.
The shop assistant looked at Lan Xiao gratefully, nodded, and ran off.
Old he’s face turned green with anger and he looked at Lan Xiao and Wen Muchu apologetically.
“Miss LAN, comrade little Wen, you guys are too much. If you like that piece of Jade, you can just take it. Why did you have to pay for it? This Yingluo ”
Lan Xiao smiled helplessly and glanced at Wen Muchu, as if to say,’see, you’re the one who started this, so you’ll have to explain.’
Wen Muchu was like a worm in Lan Xiao’s stomach, how could he not guess what she meant?
Then, he smiled and explained the whole situation to old he.
The reason for their explanation was that the two of them wanted to experience the romantic feeling of a couple giving gifts like other couples.
If he didn’t spend any money and just took this jade earring, then it wouldn’t be a gift from him to Lan Xiao.
What’s the point of this earring?
After old he heard this, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He looked at the two of them speechlessly.
Was he being fed dog food by these two young people again?
At his age, he really could not digest this.
Looking at their sweet and happy appearance, old he could feel the breath of youth coming from them.
it’s so good to be young, ” he couldn’t help but sigh. it makes me want to fall in love too.
Lan Xiao’s eyes lit up.
She looked at old he with some joy,”old he, have you thought it through?” Are you really willing to let go of the past and face a new life? I’m telling you, a forty-year-old man like you is still a flower. Don’t dress so old-fashioned. Learn from the young people and wear fashionable and handsome clothes. Tidy your hair. I guarantee that you’ll soon meet Yingluo in your second spring.”
Old he was slightly taken aback. His face turned slightly red and he smiled in embarrassment.
He had long seen through the mortal world when it came to love.
Back then, his wife had seen him in dire straits, so she had taken his son and ran off with another man.
This matter had always been a pain in his heart for so many years.
It would be a lie to say that she didn’t miss her son.
However, if the mother and son returned, he would definitely not acknowledge them.
Lan Xiao saw old he’s silence and the sadness in his eyes. She guessed that old he must be thinking about that ungrateful and vain mother and son again.
......
When Lan Xiao came out of the shop, he asked old he about the opening of the new shop.
Old he said that everything was almost ready, and that they would open for business around July.
Lan Xiao calculated the time. The new shop opened around the time after her college entrance exam.
There were not many days left.
There was a huge stone-gambling gathering in Ling city tonight. Elder he also knew about this. Yesterday, elder su even called him and invited him to attend.
Old he told Lan Xiao about this.
He asked Lan Xiao if he wanted to go and watch the show. He had an invitation from elder su.
Lan Xiao pursed her lips into a smile and winked at Wen Muchu. She did not take out the gold-stamped invitation either.
It was obvious that the two invitations were of different quality.
The gilded invitation that Fang Yugu had given him was obviously of a higher grade.
Lan Xiao estimated that once she arrived at the entrance of the party and showed the gilded invitation, there would be many jealous and probing gazes directed at her.
Lan Xiao thought about it. She didn’t want to be observed and investigated like a monkey.
Therefore, she chose to keep a low profile.
Hence, Lan Xiao decided to follow old he to take a walk.
Old he could also be her cover.
After all, many people knew that old he was her master in name.
Old he was very excited. He was overjoyed when he learned that Lan Xiao was going with them.
After all, his obsession with stone gambling had seeped into his bones and flowed into his blood.
Now, there was such a grand banquet, and they could even see the legendary Jade King.
How could old he not want to go and watch the show?
Moreover, he could make use of this opportunity to spread more news about the pavilion of blue jade. If he came across any good stone gambling, he could also buy them to fill up the store’s supplies.
It was killing two birds with one stone, so old he followed Lan Xiao.
Lan Xiao looked at old he’s old-fashioned outfit and his uncouth hairstyle.
She held her chin and shook her head slowly. “Old he, tonight’s event is huge. I heard that almost everyone in Ling city’s stone gambling industry will be there. Furthermore, there were many people from other places who came to Ling city to watch the show. It’s such a Grand gathering, aren’t you going to clean up and dress up? You should know that you’re not just representing yourself, but our blue jade Pavilion.”
Lan Xiao had other plans in his heart. She wanted old he to clean up and take advantage of tonight’s gathering to find another partner for him.
After all, elder he was not that old. He was only in his forties, not even fifty. He was so young and had such a good career now.
Lan Xiao believed that there were already many young ladies who had taken a fancy to old he.
Old he felt that Lan Xiao’s words made sense. After all, if he were to go out now, he would be representing the blue jade Pavilion.
He nodded his head in agreement. He absolutely couldn’t bring shame to the pavilion of blue jade.
He didn’t know about Lan Xiao’s complicated thoughts and quickly found an image design shop and asked the designer there to help him tidy up.
From her hairstyle to her clothes.
It was almost a brand new look.
While they were waiting, Wen Muchu put his arm around Lan Xiao’s waist and asked in a low voice, ” “If old he knows what you’re thinking, he’ll be so depressed that he’ll vomit blood.”
Lan Xiao raised his brows slightly and sneered. “If he vomited blood, so be it. Why can’t we let him get rid of it earlier? Now that he’s helping to manage such a big store, and I’m going to open more stores in the future, I can’t just focus on myself. I have to let old he live a similarly glorious life and live an enviable life. As for money, he was not lacking now. What he lacked was a considerate and understanding woman. If it’s possible, I’d like to have another child. It’d be perfect.”
Wen Muchu shook his head slowly and poked Lan Xiao’s forehead helplessly.
“You, why do you like to meddle in other people’s business so much, Yingluo?”
Lan Xiao immediately replied,”old he isn’t just anyone, he’s my closest partner, Yingluo.”
Before Lan Xiao could finish his sentence, he felt a chill on the top of his head.
She immediately covered her mouth, suddenly realizing that she had said something wrong.
What was she saying? how could she say that she was intimate with another man in front of Chuchu?
Even if he was a companion, he couldn’t do it. Look at his originally gentle face, now it was slowly turning black.
