one

The two female shop assistants following her were tense and did not dare to smile

Moreover, a high-achieving student in the physics department like Cheng Mu should ideally continue studying all the way through and eventually gain entry into the laboratory.

Cheng Mu Yang, it turns out he is Cheng Mu Yang

There should be no involvement whatsoever

After returning to school, many classmates noticed that a handsome mixed-race boy had appeared beside her, serving as a "nanny." At that time, Nanbei was living in the same room as a Russian girl, and it was always inconvenient for a boy to come and go. However, to their surprise, the girl they lived with was quite willing to facilitate this arrangement.

The black tea in the hands of the north and south emits a gentle steam

She let out an "oh" and said, "When I met him, I didn't know he was from the Cheng family"

She did not hesitate, taking out both jade bracelets that were placed side by side, selecting the smaller one, and turning to try it on the woman. She gently held the woman's hand, sliding the jade bracelet over the four fingers that were brought together, pressing it against the web of the thumb, and surprisingly, it fit perfectly: "This is worth collecting, and the size is very suitable for this young lady."

No, when Mr. Shen sent someone to bring him here, he mentioned that no matter what was chosen, it would be considered a gift for the younger generation. The shop assistant was quite emotional, thinking they were saving money for the boss by keeping these best jade pieces, only to have them squandered by Nanbei.

She lowered her voice and turned her head to speak a few words to the familiar shop assistant beside her. Soon, someone brought over the "best" bracelets she had mentioned.

Indeed... what a coincidence

On this afternoon, the weather is somewhat oppressive

This time, due to Mr. Shen's visit to Taizhou for ancestral worship, there were as many as 170 descendants of the Shen family who came from various places, yet only Mr. Shen and his two sons stayed in the old residence. Nanbei also accompanied them in staying here; she had arrived a week earlier and spent her days either meeting various elders and juniors or visiting the nearby Yufang.

If it were not for Shen Gong, who had watched her grow up and returned to his hometown to pay respects to his ancestors, she would not have come to Taizhou to accompany the elderly gentleman on a nostalgic visit to his homeland

Cheng Mu was dressed in a black shirt, and apart from the watch on his wrist, he had no other superfluous items on him. He simply sat there, one hand resting on the edge of the table, watching the woman beside him choose bracelets. The two occasionally exchanged words, conversing in Cantonese, a local dialect that certainly added to the appeal of a girl with a pleasant voice.

Cheng Mu rested his elbow on the edge of the mahogany table, simply gazing at her, his eyes seemingly filled with laughter, yet his face remained expressionless: "These all look quite good, are there any particularly valuable pieces worth collecting?"

Suddenly feeling the cool breeze of the air conditioner, she couldn't help but comfortably squint her eyes and let out a long sigh

She was just about to speak and ask for some herbal tea, but she froze there

At that time, I thought he was studying physics, as the structure of his brain was different

Shen Jiaming was somewhat surprised, yet he overlooked the ferocity of the macaw, nearly getting pecked on the finger. However, as the parrot frantically crashed into the cage, he couldn't help but gaze at her with a sense of wonder: "What a coincidence"

Is this good? The woman raised her arm and looked at him

Please wait

Is it true? That woman has a joyful expression in her eyes

His tone is very standard, especially compared to someone like me who cannot distinguish between nasal sounds, it is indeed much more refined

The heavy snowfall that blocked 900 kilometers is a once-in-a-decade occurrence

Yes. She slightly raised the corners of her mouth, asked the clerk for the key, walked to the large glass display case, and unlocked it

She truly enjoys this one-on-one conversation in Chinese

However, the reasoning is indeed valid. Although the store has special hand oils for removing jade bracelets, finding a suitable size and then having to take it off again can indeed be quite a challenge.

Indeed, the fourth nephew of Boss Cheng—Cheng Mu Yang," Shen Jiaming stood up, carefully examining the parrot in the cage by the window, "The Cheng family has always prioritized merit over kinship. Ever since Cheng Gong turned seventy, this Cheng Mu Yang has been appearing more and more frequently, and he has seemingly become the little boss of the Cheng family.

Although this statement sounds impressive, the language is entirely unprofessional, resembling that of a charlatan. If it were not for Mr. Shen's prior instructions that this young lady could do as she pleased, they would truly not dare to let the North and South be presented so directly.

That woman must understand these very well, her eyes filled with joy as she lowers her head to examine each one closely

Only once, just that once, she tested him

"It's nothing, it's just that the old eunuch Li Lianying stole it out of the palace and sold it overseas. At least it was given to that person, and it still remains in China for a long time, which can be considered as protecting a national treasure." Only Shen Jiaming, who grew up with her, spoke somewhat sourly, "At worst, it will be recorded under your brother's name. But Bei Bei, how could you be so generous to Cheng Mu Yang?"

It must be said that she has not had such a considerate "nanny" since then

If there are any, you can take them all out. Cheng Mu looked at her face, carefully examining the long-lost acquaintance.

"How is that possible?" She shook her head and scoffed

Not bad at all. He is indeed sparing with his words

She has not left Yunnan for four years since she dropped out in Belgium and returned to her home country

During a deep interview with a media outlet, Ms. Shen found herself with nothing to do, so she exited through the back door of her old residence and walked along the path to Yufang. Upon entering, a rich scent of sandalwood mixed with the cool air from the air conditioning greeted her. Behind the glass screen directly opposite the main entrance, the melodious tones of Taiwanese opera floated out, characterized by a meticulous old-fashioned style.

She still remembers his appearance at the time of their farewell. He was a young boy then, tall and slender, with short black hair, and only his eyes were a beautiful shade of brown, resembling a Persian cat. However, the person standing before her now is no longer a boy; he has long since grown into a true man

At that time, due to the humid weather, the wound did not heal easily

There are two or three guests in the inner hall, and one person stands out remarkably

Cheng Mu and her were once in contact for a period of time, almost jeopardizing their relationship, as he was a high-achieving student in the physics department. As for herself, she had to leave university after only half a semester and did not manage to break the slightly ambiguous relationship with that girl. Therefore, here, in Taizhou, in the private jade workshop of the Shen family, what should they do upon meeting again

He completely ignored her question

Such a large display case, yet it contains only two jade bracelets, which is sufficient to demonstrate their value

She did not walk out the door, but instead entered the inner hall. The carpet was of a very thick kind, providing a soft and cushioned sensation underfoot. Due to her approach, both individuals turned to look.

This is truly ... ... excessive

At that time, she was sent to the hospital, and the doctor incessantly questioned in a Belgian-accented French about who had removed the bullet. When Cheng Mu was finally forced to admit it was he who had done so, she was still astonished by the audacity of this boy. However, he had nothing decent at hand, and the wound was truly unsightly.

A bracelet of suitable size is difficult to take off once worn, and a well-fitting jade bracelet signifies the selection of its owner; it is not advisable to forcibly remove it. Nanbei spoke with great conviction, "This is a treasure meant to attract customers; it is best for the gentlemen and ladies to consider carefully before trying it on."

However, as of today, she finally has an answer. The Cheng family primarily engages in the arms business, so it is no wonder that he is afraid

North and South are somewhat incredulous

She stood to the left of the woman, quietly shifting her gaze over, silently asking him: Girlfriend?

However, her exceptionally unique family background prevented her from thinking deeply, and it seems that she still lacked a certain degree of feelings for him.

This is a privately owned jade shop. On the first day she came here, Mr. Shen told her that anyone who could come here was related to the Shen family. Could it be that he is also related to the Shen family

"Why not just put it on?" Cheng Muriao asked with interest, glancing at the jade bracelet in her hand

It is truly as hot as fire outside the door

Cheng Mu glanced at her, lightly tapping the table with the tip of his pen, and for a moment, he smiled like a cunning old fox: "It sounds like you are quite yearning for it"

The Jade Pavilion is privately owned and is often used by local governments for exhibitions and to host distinguished guests, with not many idle individuals present

It is Cheng Mu

Nanbei smiled and said, "The best jade here should not have been taken out yet"

I did not expect Cheng Mu to actually bring it over, directly handing a complete set to that woman to wear

She paused for a moment: "Are you referring to Cheng Mu Yang?"

The events of the past were truly unknown to the North and South. However, at that time, she had already sensed something.

What are your views on arms trading and the like? Do you wish to live that kind of life? She leaned back in her chair, holding her book, but her eyes were quietly glancing at him

Nanbei watched as such a fine jade bracelet was given to someone else, let out a light sigh, and signaled to the female shop assistant that it was time to settle the bill. The female shop assistant smiled slightly, did not walk towards the counter, but instead bent down and led the two of them out from behind the screen

That afternoon, outside was the typical rainy weather of Belgium. He sat very close to her, his clothes having been specially dried, carrying a faint and warm scent, and her clothes were similarly so

Later, no matter how she tried to remedy the situation, there were still noticeable scars on the upper side of her right arm

In the inner hall, Nanbei saw his girl making a gesture for silence, quietly walking past from the back hall, observing him from a distance with great care

Although there is much rain and snow, it is mostly composed of sticky light rain and snowflakes that melt upon hitting the ground

One evening, she was engrossed in her calculus homework when a girl asked her if she had any thoughts about being secretly admired by a boy for such a long time. She felt a bit bewildered as a Russian beauty in short shorts swayed in front of her, saying that the boy named Cheng Mu had started paying attention to her since she entered the school

No wonder, he only asked her from beginning to end: "Are you okay?"

The next day, everyone knew about this matter, a joke between the North and South Wulong, which resulted in a jade bracelet valued at seventy million. This jade workshop was originally intended for private collection and local government exhibitions, serving as a contribution by the Shen family to enhance their hometown's achievements. Therefore, whether something was lost or gained, no one would truly bother to calculate.

She originally intended to scare him a little

Taizhou, China

Jiangsu and Zhejiang have just entered the plum rain season, and the weather resembles the rainy Yunnan, a familiar climate that makes her feel not far from home. Looking back, it seems she has always lived in a rainy place. During those years in Belgium, it was also rainy, yet the climate was very pleasant, with summer temperatures not exceeding 28 °C and winter nights hovering around 0 °C.

Is this a regular customer

Several classmates were quite frightened, yet she, who had been shot, along with that clumsy first-aid provider, remained remarkably calm. Having experienced real gunfights in Yunnan during her childhood, she felt no negative emotions aside from the pain. However, from the police taking statements to her eventual hospitalization, Cheng Mu did not display any particular emotions, which indeed shocked her
