Chapter 21: I Quite Like This Place, Yunqi

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Chen told them his name and Lin Ya introduced themselves. “My name is Lin Ya. She is Qiao Sisi.”

Qiao Sisi nodded slightly but was secretly sizing up this man.

It was not that she did not notice the gaze of the stall owner earlier. Moreover, Ye Chen’s aura was not that of an ordinary person.

This trip… was really interesting.

Ye Chen smiled. With the light behind his back, he looked radiant as he said, “Are you guys touring Yunqi?”

Qiao Sisi tactfully let Lin Ya have the chance to speak.

Lin Ya blushed a little under Ye Chen’s gaze. She put her hands in her pockets nervously. “No, we’re here to work. We’re just looking around now.”

If she did not appear calm, Qiao Sisi would have thought that she had taken a fancy to Ye Chen.

“Why don’t… I’ll show you around this Jade Street in Yunqi?” Ye Chen was very familiar with the place and did not feel awkward at all.

Lin Ya did not agree immediately. She looked at Qiao Sisi.

“I couldn’t ask for more.” Qiao Sisi nodded and agreed. Since Lin Ya wanted to shop, then they should shop together. They had nothing to do now.

In the evening, they were greeted by neon lights at the entrance of many shops, as well as the shouts of hawkers and the chatter of customers.

The atmosphere was very lively.

......

Jade Street was very long. The street was basically filled with small stalls selling jade. In the middle, there were many shops.

The jade in the stalls were most likely fake. One wondered if the shops also practice fraud.

However, the possibility was not high.

Qiao Sisi and the rest were assigned by the company to acquire some jade and gemstones from Yunqi for the production of jewelry.

Qiao Sisi looked at these shops, feeling overwhelmed. A faint sense of joy rose from the bottom of her heart.

“You guys just came to Yunqi. It’s unlikely you know of this Jade Street.” Ye Chen was like a diligent tour guide.

“Why do you say that?”

Ye Chen said with a smile, “There are counterfeit goods in these stalls. However, the shops in the middle are usually certified. The possibility of fake stones is very low. Of course, there’s a possibility of error.”

This was unavoidable and understandable.

Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya understood what was going on. As the three of them walked on the streets, they attracted the gaze of many people who turned to give them second looks.

The three of them chose a store and decided to take a look around.

“Welcome.” The salesperson in the store smiled sweetly.

Qiao Sisi parted ways with Ye Chen and Li Ya to browse around on her own in the store. The jades here were priced explicitly, and they looked really good.

However, Qiao Sisi did not intend to buy anything.

“What is this?” Qiao Sisi glanced at the well protected jade at the counter and asked the staff curiously.

Through the layer of glass, Qiao Sisi could clearly see the quality of the jade. It was of excellent texture, translucent, with a hint of green.

The salesperson happened to be standing by the side. She answered, “Customer, this is an ice-type jade. It is one of the most precious jades in our store.”

Qiao Sisi understood immediately. “Thank you.”

In addition to this ice-type jade, there were many other precious jade stones in this store. Even with Qiao Sisi’s superficial knowledge, she could tell that these jade stones were expensive.

It was a good trip!

Qiao Sisi lingered over the jades, the design concept of the Deep Sea series in her heart was becoming more and more complete.

“Sisi!”

Hearing Lin Ya’s voice, Qiao Sisi turned around and saw Lin Ya and Ye Chen standing near the counter.

She walked over and saw that the two of them were not carrying anything. They were probably just casually shopping.

“What is it?”

Lin Ya shook her head and smiled. “It’s fine. It’s just that it’s going to rain soon. We’re getting ready to go back. You look like you can’t bear to leave.”

A smile appeared on Qiao Sisi’s face as she cleared his throat. “Ahem, I was just looking around.”

The sky, which had been pretty good outside, had now turned dark clouds that could be clearly felt in the store.

A cold wind blew in from outside the store. Qiao Sisi tugged at the front lapel of her jacket. It looked like it was going to rain.

“We’ll get going then,” Lin Ya turned around and said to Ye Chen with a smile.

Ye Chen nodded and suddenly thought of something. He said, “When you are free next time, I can take you to the end of the street to take a look. You guys have probably never seen anything there.”

As it was about to rain outside, he could not continue to show them around. He could only wait for the next opportunity.

After saying goodbye, the two of them started to walk back to the hotel.

Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya had just stepped out of the store.

“Rumble!”

There was a clap of thunder in the sky and Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya quickly ran all the way back to the hotel. They were lucky.

At night, Lin Ya was taking a shower in the bathroom in her room as Qiao Sisi sat at the desk beside her bed. She had finished washing up.

There were a few design drafts on the table, all drawn by her.

Bracelet…?Qiao Sisi’s eyes curved as she smiled. She picked up a pencil and drew a rough outline on the design draft.

This time, she was not very engrossed. After Lin Ya was done, she had just finished drawing and put away the design draft.

“Go to bed early,” Lin Ya said and turned off the bedside lamp. Qiao Sisi also turned off the light by her bed and lay in bed to sleep.

The night was very quiet.

The next morning, at 8 am, the people from Jinyu Company, including Qiao Sisi, were already gathered in the lobby downstairs.

The junior assistant carried a black leather bag and said to everyone, “We’re going to Wind City Company today. Other than some discussions, you can also socialize with the designers of Wind City Company. We might meet again soon.”

The junior assistant’s words seemed to be implying something. Qiao Sisi contemplated in her heart about the designer competition she had heard about.

It might be about this matter.

Even when they got into the car, Qiao Sisi was still thinking about the designer competition.

She had drafted her general idea. What she needed to do next was to fill in the details. She thought that she could make the theme work.

The colors of the Deep Sea series were as profound as the deep sea. The pale and dark colors complement each other’s radiance and beauty. They were perfect for an entire set of jewelry.

Qiao Sisi leaned against the window, her head trembling slightly from the vibration of the car. There was a faint smile on her face.

“What are you thinking about, Sisi?” Lin Ya could not help asking after looking at her for a long time.

Qiao Sisi came back to her senses and glanced at her. “It’s fine. I quite like this place, Yunqi.”

“I see…” Lin Ya seemed to be in deep thought. She blinked and asked with a smile,” Sisi, do you remember Ye Chen from yesterday? ”
