Mr. Li, please stop abusing me. My wife is getting engaged.

Chapter 158 Purple Diamond Necklace

Su Jinyan's calm eyes suddenly lit up.

Li Zeyi followed her gaze and looked towards the exhibition stand, where a set of purple diamonds, necklaces and rings were shining with an alluring luster.

The purple diamond rose on the necklace is a precious and rare collection-level diamond with near-perfect clarity and cut, and a gorgeous purple color that is dreamy and romantic.

Li Zeyi was slightly surprised that Shu Cheng actually had such a purple diamond, which was even bigger than the diamond on his purple brooch.

The auctioneer in a golden gown said with a smile, "This set of purple diamond jewelry is exquisite and elegant. Purple diamonds are rare, and huge ones like this are even more precious. The starting price is 2000 million."

People kept raising the price, and when it reached 5000 million, the bid stopped going up.

Su Jinyan said calmly: "6000 million."

There was silence.

This price is already a premium for this set of purple diamonds. After all, its estimated value is only around 5000 million.

When Li Zeyi heard her say 6000 million in a light tone, he was still quite surprised at her current financial resources.

His eyes swept over Su Jinyan, feeling confused.

"7000 million." Li Zeyi raised his eyelids and a clear voice sounded.

Su Jinyan looked at Li Zeyi with anger in her eyes and glared at him angrily.

Li Zeyi became interested when he saw her angry expression. He looked at her calmly, which made her even more annoyed.

"7100 million." Su Jinyan bit her lip and glared at Li Zeyi angrily.

"8000 million." Li Zeyi curled his lips and looked at Su Jinyan, seeming to be in a good mood.

The air was silent for a moment. Su Jinyan silently withdrew her gaze, knowing that he was determined to go against her today. If she continued to fight, the price would go higher and higher, and she would not get the purple diamond.

Su Jinyan simply dropped the sign in her hand and left with a lot of resentment.

Li Zeyi looked at her obviously angry expression, and the smile on his face became even wider.

"Li Zeyi, what are you talking about helping me? I think you are the biggest stumbling block..."

"I hope you fall to death while walking, or choke to death while eating..." Su Jinyan pouted, and kicked every trash can on the roadside. She couldn't even walk steadily in her high heels.

Her body swayed and her feet became unstable at the moment when her waist was held by strong arms and a strong smell of hormones filled her nose.

Su Jinyan pushed him away forcefully, her eyes filled with disgust.

Li Zeyi looked at the disgust in her eyes, his pupils narrowed, and then he regained his composure after a moment.

He opened the brocade box in his hand calmly and took out the purple diamond necklace, but his eyes were looking at Su Jinyan.

"like?"

Su Jinyan's eyes unconsciously looked at the necklace. The last time she saw it, it was still hanging on her mother Su Xinai's chest, noble and dazzling. But now... things have changed.

There was ardent love in his eyes, but Su Jinyan quickly retracted her gaze, her face cold, and she said against her will: "It's just a necklace. Although it is more attractive than the others, it's not worth the fuss..."

"If there is something better tomorrow, I will naturally forget about it..." Su Jinyan said calmly.

Li Zeyi stared at her, his eyes darkening as he watched her lie in all seriousness.

"Since you don't like it, I'll give it to someone else." Li Zeyi said in a cold voice.

"Jewelry is a circulating commodity. It is common for it to pass from one person to another."

"Mr. Li is very wealthy. Now that he has won the prize, he can give it to whoever he wants..." Su Jinyan said in a flat tone. She glanced at him coldly and left without looking back.

Li Zeyi looked at her leaving and subconsciously wanted to grab her again, but Su Jinyan pulled her hand away first, and her rejection was very obvious.

Li Zeyi's outstretched hand fell into nothingness, and his heart felt empty as well.

She really hated him so much that she was on guard against him at every turn and didn't even want to tell him the truth.

Special Assistant Wang held his breath, not daring to utter a word. There was a reason why he had moved from secretary to special assistant in the past few years.

It is not a bad thing to talk less and do more, and to pretend to be ignorant when you know the truth.

Li Zeyi returned to the company and placed the brocade box on the desk. He opened the box and presented it to Assistant Wang. He put his hands on his hips and paced anxiously: "Tell me, tell me...does it look good?"

Special Assistant Wang tensed his legs and stretched his body straight, not even daring to raise his head, and said hurriedly: "It looks good, of course it looks good."

Li Zeyi smiled coldly, and the corners of his lips curled up in self-mockery: "Is it so difficult to get her to say she likes me in front of me?"

"Are you really so wary of me..." Li Zeyi's eyes were red and his fists were clenched tightly.

After a while, there was a knock on the office door. Li Zeyi sat on the chair. His angry expression had subsided and he returned to his usual indifferent and distant self.

A charming figure appeared, and Li Zeyi raised his eyelids: "What are you doing here?"

Mu Wanqing was stunned for a moment when she heard the coldness in his tone, and then she returned to normal.

The voice was still enthusiastic: "Brother Zeyi, I came to see how your injury is, and I brought you some medicine."

"It's just a minor injury. No need to worry." During the conversation, Li Zeyi had already shifted his attention to the documents in his hand.

Every word Li Zeyi spoke was cold. Before Mu Wanqing could speak again, Li Zeyi's voice was heard.

"If you have nothing else, go out."

Mu Wanqing bit her lip, glanced around the office, and her eyes fell on the open brocade box on the table, her eyes lit up.

"Brother Zeyi, this purple diamond is so exquisite." Mu Wanqing stared at Li Zeyi, waiting for him to speak.

Li Zeyi looked calm, as if he hadn't heard anything, and continued reviewing the documents.

Mu Wanqing smiled uncomfortably and said casually, "It matches my purple diamond earring very well."

Li Zeyi's pen paused, the meaning of her words was obvious.

Mu Wanqing looked at his paused pen with sharp eyes, excitement rising in her heart. She knew he had a soft spot, that purple diamond earring...

Li Zeyi was stunned for a moment, then he raised his eyes lazily and looked at Special Assistant Wang beside him. The signal in his eyes was obvious.

Special Assistant Wang knew that General Li wanted him to come up with an excuse to get away with it, but Special Assistant Wang pretended to be confused and did not accept the challenge.

Mu Wanqing continued to urge: "The quality is the same as mine."

Li Zeyi had no choice but to take his eyes off Assistant Wang, looked up at her, and said indifferently: "Someone has already reserved this necklace."

Mu Wanqing's expression was uncontrollably ugly, and she couldn't act natural.

The corners of his mouth pulled up a far-fetched smile, and his voice was lost: "Since it was chosen by someone else, I naturally can't steal your love."

Mu Wanqing bit her lip, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated: "Can you accompany me to the Starlight Dinner tomorrow?"

"It's not a big banquet, just a company dinner." Mu Wanqing explained anxiously, fearing that she would not agree.

Li Zeyi has always been low-key and has never appeared in these worlds of fame and fortune. Mu Wanqing looked at him anxiously.

The favor of the purple diamond earrings has already been asked for, and since I didn’t get the necklace, I have to ask for something else.

Li Zeyi was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I agree."

Mu Wanqing's eyes suddenly brightened, and the unhappiness in her heart mostly dissipated. A thought flashed through her mind...
