Chapter 134: 068: Matchmaking_2

"The Empress said," Huang Yue replied.

Ma Xiaolan nodded, "That’s a nice name."

While they were talking, a large truck stopped at the front of the store, and the driver rolled down the window, "Boss Zhou, the goods have arrived!"

Huang Yue smiled, "So soon?"

The driver said, "Didn’t you need it urgently? I rushed over without even eating."

"We are opening tomorrow, how can we not be in a hurry?" On finishing her sentence, Huang Yue turned to look inside the store, "Old Zhou, hurry up and come unload the goods."

"Coming, coming." Zhou Zhongquan ran out from inside.

——

Elsewhere.

Bai Lu wore the Emperor Green Bracelet that Lu Ye gave her to the tea party.

To match the bracelet, she specifically chose a lake blue cheongsam with a white chiffon shawl, looking just like a warlord’s wife straight out of a Republican-era movie.

As expected.

No sooner had Bai Lu walked into the hall than she drew a crowd of onlookers.

"Madam Lu, that bracelet looks gorgeous."

"Is that a collector’s item?"

"It makes Madam Lu’s skin look so fair."

Bai Lu gradually lost herself amidst the sounds of praise.

"Top-grade Emperor Green, at least ten times more expensive than ordinary Emperor Green, and as far as I know, they’ve stopped mining this kind of jade." Rarity increases value, especially for jade, which is precious in itself. Once the mine stops production, it means that the bracelet Bai Lu is wearing on her hand could very well be the only one in the world.

The speaker was Mrs. Chu.

The Chu Family had been in the jade business for generations, and her words carried a lot of weight.

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu smiled and said, "Then how much do you think this one is worth?"

Mrs. Chu’s gaze fell on Bai Lu’s wrist, "At the very least, it would start with ten figures."

That wasn’t an exaggeration at all.

After all, it was top-grade Emperor Green from a mine that has ceased production.

Though everyone standing in the hall was well-off, they couldn’t help but gasp upon hearing that number.

Starting with ten figures is far more than just ten figures.

"Madam Lu, did Old Lu give this to you?"

Bai Lu glanced at the bracelet on her wrist, thinking that she would have to be careful when wearing it in the future. If she accidentally broke it, wouldn’t she be heartbroken?

"Old Lu with this much taste? It was our Sansan who gave this to me. That child, always so filial since he was little."

Sansan?

Lu Ye?

Hearing this, the crowd’s expressions varied as they whispered among themselves.

Who in Qing City didn’t know what sort of person Lu Ye was?

Was Bai Lu not even preparing her lies?

"Has Madam Lu gone mad? She really will say anything."

"Why do you think she would say that?"

"Why?" someone asked curiously.

"Because that waste, Lu Ye, is already 26 years old this year. Bai Lu is clearly trying to take this opportunity to hype things up, to find a wife for Lu Ye... Everyone attending the tea party today belongs to Qing City’s prestigious families. If Lu Ye marries any of their daughters, he could lie back and inherit the family business."

"My God, that’s so shameless..."

"Who knows, even the bracelet on her hand could be fake."

"It’s very possible, she has always been close to Mrs. Chu; it’s normal for her to defend Bai Lu."

"..."

Everyone was whispering quietly, so of course Bai Lu couldn’t hear them, her gaze shifting, she suddenly saw a white figure standing in the corner of the banquet hall.

The girl was wearing a white cocktail dress, holding a tall glass in her hand, and just like that, she watched the bustling hall.

Her proud figure stood out from the world around her.

It was Zhang Xianxian!

Bai Lu’s eyes lit up, and she took out her mobile phone to send a WeChat to Lu Ye, "Sansan, I was in such a hurry I forgot to bring my blood pressure medication. Quick, help me bring it here."

"I’m at Loo Mansion."

Loo Mansion was very close to the Lu Family.

It would take ten minutes to get there.

This time, she was determined to let Lu Ye see Zhang Xianxian.

With this thought, the corners of Bai Lu’s mouth lifted slightly, and then she walked over to Zhang Xianxian, "Xianxian."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianxian looked up slightly and saw Bai Lu, a polite smile on her face, "Aunt Lu."

The more Bai Lu looked at Zhang Xianxian, the more satisfied she became.

Not only was the child beautiful, but she was also very smart, the number one talented young woman in Qing City at such a young age.

What was even more rare was that she wasn’t conceited because she was smarter than the average person.

She was humble.

She had the demeanor of someone well-educated and sensible to everyone she met.

Therefore, Bai Lu believed she would not be vain and greedy like Ou Tinglan; it was such a person who deserved Lu Ye.

Bai Lu then said, "Xianxian, why are you here alone? Where’s your mother?"

Zhang Xianxian’s tone was gentle, "My mother had a little something today and couldn’t come, so she sent me instead."

Bai Lu nodded slightly.

Just then, her phone in her handbag rang, Bai Lu picked up the phone and saw it was a call from Lu Ye, "Sansan."

"Auntie, I’m at the entrance. Where are you?"

At this, Bai Lu turned and looked towards the entrance. Sure enough, she saw an outstanding figure standing out from the crowd and waved with a smile, "Sansan, I’m here."

Lu Ye quickly walked over.

He was tall and long-legged, and he stood out among the hall full of rich ladies, causing quite a stir just by walking in.

Lu Ye had always lived abroad, and everyone only knew that the Lu Family had a good-for-nothing; they had never seen him in person.

Seeing Lu Ye now, they couldn’t help but exclaim, "My God, so handsome! Who is that?"

"Look at that presence, he’s definitely somebody important!"

Seeing Lu Ye approaching, Zhang Xianxian frowned discreetly. She finally understood why Bai Lu had flaunted her new bracelet in public.

Because Bai Lu’s target was her.

She wanted to make her think Lu Ye was some kind of hidden big shot.

Did she really think she was an idiot?

Soon, Lu Ye arrived by Bai Lu’s side and passed medicine to her, "Auntie, your medicine."

Bai Lu took the medicine from Lu Ye’s hand with a smile, "Sansan, this is Young Miss Zhang of the Zhang Family, Zhang Xianxian. Xianxian, this is my nephew Lu Ye, who has just returned from abroad. I’ve heard that you’re going to go abroad soon too; he has been in Country F and Continent L for over ten years and knows a lot of people. If you run into any trouble abroad, you can reach out to him."
