After a brief pause, Jiang Ling’er continued, “Beloved Consort, let me explain. Our accessories are all top-notch; the master personally handcrafts them. Finished products are quite rare.”

Qiu Yang responded, “Spare me the details. I’ve already sent you the pictures. Please do your best to secure one. My mother rarely shows such interest in something. My father said that paying double the price is not an issue.”

Jiang Ling’er examined the picture and said, “I can’t commit to it right now. I’ll inquire tomorrow. If I can’t get one, I’ll have to ask Madam Qiu for forgiveness. By the way, I heard that there were only three of these in the entire world, each costing over 50 million yuan. Did they really get sold off that quickly?”

Qiu Yang responded, “As you said, there were only three, not thirty or three hundred. Naturally, they’re in high demand. I’m smitten with them, as is my mother. She has seen numerous other items, but rarely does she fall in love at first sight. Please, you have to help me.”

Jiang Ling’er said, “I’ll inquire on your behalf. However, your hopes might be too high. It’s improbable that there are any extras. Nevertheless, if your family is willing to pay double the price, someone may consider selling.”

“Alright, please check for me,” Qiu Yang agreed.

After the call, Jiang Ling’er resumed her breakfast.

“Ling’er, who was that so early in the morning?” Old Master Jiang asked curiously as he neared the end of his meal.

“Qiuyang, the son of a real estate tycoon,” Jiang Ling’er explained.

Old Master Jiang was speechless.

“How did you two meet?” he inquired, appearing somewhat shocked and puzzled.

“We both participated in the national competition,” Jiang Ling’er responded. “I wasn’t aware of his identity initially; it was Li Yu who discovered it and informed me.”

Old Master Jiang nodded and after a brief silence, he remarked, “I see. That young man from the Li family has been visiting us frequently lately. Is he fond of you?”

Jiang Ling’er was speechless.

Did Old Master Jiang really pick up on it?

Old Master Jiang said earnestly, “Ling’er, if you’re not interested, you should tell it to him straight. It’s not suitable for him to keep coming here like this. The neighbors all assume that you and he are a couple, and some may even think that he resides here.”

Jiang Ling’er nearly choked on her bread upon hearing this. Was it really that serious?

Old Master Jiang took out a piece of paper and handed it to Jiang Ling’er.

“Eat slowly,” Old Master Jiang said. “You’re not going to school, so there’s no need to be anxious.”

“Is the misunderstanding really this severe?” Jiang Ling’er asked, feeling somewhat awkward.

Old Master Jiang nodded and added, “Yes, so it’s best to address it as soon as possible. If you’re interested, go ahead. If not, simply reject it. We Jiangs do not engage in such unkind behavior.”

Jiang Ling’er’s expression darkened as she murmured, “Li Yu came to me regarding the contract. I previously agreed, but I haven’t signed it yet. Li Yu is worried that I might back out. Once I sign the contract with Li Yu, he will be relieved.”

Old Master Jiang shook his head and spoke solemnly, “Ling’er, this matter is more complex than just signing a contract. Handle it carefully. Don’t be perfunctory. Do you understand?”

Jiang Ling’er was left speechless. Was he forcing her to make a decision?

“Ling’er, did you hear me?” Old Master Jiang inquired earnestly.

“I understand, Grandpa,” Jiang Ling’er reluctantly acknowledged.

Following breakfast, Old Master Jiang left for the company, and Jiang Ling’er, who rarely took a break, watched a variety show alone in the living room. It seemed ordinary, but subconsciously, she was awaiting Li Yu’s arrival.

When Li Yu arrived at the Jiang family’s residence at 9 PM. Jiang Ling’er had prepared a simple fruit platter.

The two sat down, locking eyes with each other.

Li Yu began with a smile, “You seem pretty free today.”

“Yes.” Jiang Ling’er nodded. She thought for a moment and said seriously, “During breakfast today, my grandfather said something very serious.”

“What happened?” Li Yu inquired, puzzled.

Jiang Ling’er hesitated for a moment before expressing, “You’ve been coming to my house so frequently, and the neighbors have gotten the wrong impression. Some even believe that you’re living here. So, tell me, why are you coming so often?”

“Oh?” Li Yu snorted. “I expected more results.”

Jiang Ling’er was utterly bewildered. What was he talking about?

Li Yu said innocently, “I had expected more. I hoped they would think I’m a part of this family. I even greet them every day!”

Jiang Ling’er was left speechless. Li Yu had deliberately caused these misunderstandings.

Li Yu playfully pinched Jiang Ling’er’s cheek and asked, “So, are you surprised? Did it catch you off guard?”

Jiang Ling’er rolled her eyes at Li Yu and said, “Let’s sign the contract now. You don’t need to keep coming.. It’s causing misunderstandings, and it might be affecting you as well, right?”
