Chapter 190: Chapter 190: The Gift from Ji Liancheng to Her

Following Ji Feifan’s suggestion, she planned to rest early. But just after taking a bath, she received a call from the courier service.

There were couriers in this era, although they were not as developed as they would be a decade later.

Lin Zhi was puzzled, not knowing who would send her a courier package.

Upon opening the outer packaging, she found a small jewelry box inside. Lin Zhi was even more surprised—who would send her jewelry?

When she opened the box and saw the jade bracelet inside, Lin Zhi was shocked once more!

She knew it was a piece of jewelry, but she had not expected it to be a jade bracelet... and not just any jade bracelet, but one made of Emperor Green jade!

This jade, it seemed, was the same one she had unearthed in Country D, the Heavenly Price Jade that she had auctioned off on Ji Liancheng’s behalf.

Was this... a gift from Ji Liancheng?

Lin Zhi’s face was full of confusion. Why would he send her this?

Ji Liancheng couldn’t possibly have feelings for her, could he?!

But she wasn’t going to date anyone, would he hold a grudge if she refused him?

After letting her mind run wild, Lin Zhi simply decided to call and ask him directly.

She dialed Ji Liancheng’s number, and the call was quickly answered on the other end.

"Hello, Mr. Ji?" Lin Zhi asked politely. This was the first time she was calling him, and she was quite nervous.

"It’s me," Ji Liancheng responded.

"Mr. Ji, I received something. May I ask if it was from you?" Lin Zhi asked vaguely, afraid of the awkwardness if it turned out not to be his gift.

"If it’s a jade bracelet, then yes, it’s from me," Ji Liancheng admitted generously.

Wow, so it really was him.

But why would he send her this?

"Why did you suddenly send me this? It’s the Heavenly Price Jade, isn’t it? Such a valuable item, and you just gave it to me?" Lin Zhi asked, perplexed.

Ji Liancheng answered indifferently, "It’s what you deserve. The jade was discovered because of you; of course, you have a share in it. I heard today was your graduation day, so I thought it was fitting to send this to you as a graduation gift."

A graduation gift...

The rich are just too generous; he even gave her a graduation gift.

Lin Zhi calmed down. They weren’t interested in her; they simply had too much money and liked giving gifts to friends.

She shouldn’t keep a little girl’s mentality, thinking that someone likes her just because they’re nice to her.

When a man likes a woman, he will confess directly.

Those who don’t confess are usually either not interested or have too many concerns. Men are not like women; they don’t hold back in matters of affection.

Once she assured herself that she was overthinking, Lin Zhi’s mindset became much more natural.

"Thank you, but this gift is too precious. Please take it back; I can’t use something this valuable," Lin Zhi declined politely.

The bracelet was probably worth several hundred million; she really didn’t dare to accept it!

However, Ji Liancheng straightforwardly said, "Don’t worry about its value. Being able to give it to you shows that you are worthy. I also look forward to continuing our cooperation. Besides, without you, I wouldn’t have been able to uncover such fine jade."

Since he had put it that way, Lin Zhi no longer resisted.

"Well then, I’ll accept it. Thank you for your gift; I really like it," Lin Zhi expressed her gratitude.

"Glad you like it," Ji Liancheng’s tone was as calm as ever, but then he added, "If you’re free, let’s have a meal together sometime. I’ve been too busy to invite you out for a meal lately."

Lin Zhi: "!!!"

Was he asking her out for a meal?

Could he really have feelings for her and be pursuing her... No, that was absolutely impossible!

Lin Zhi, stop! Please stop your wild musings!
