Qu Lin lifted her head coldly, but the hatred in her eyes couldn’t be completely concealed.

"Why is it always..." Pointing at the collapsed stone materials on the stage, Guan Xiang just wanted to beat Qu Lin up.

Qhianqhian smiled indifferently: "Maybe, the Heavenly God despises you? The Jade that was originally fine, whenever it goes through you, it collapses? Are you haunted by a misfortune spirit? Could it be that you relied on Linlin sister’s protection all this time to get where you are today?"

Everyone knows that this industry relies on luck, so if one gets labeled as unfortunate... haha.

Seeing the people around wanting to keep their distance, Guan Xiang couldn’t suppress his anger and raised his hand: "You little brat, you..."

But his hand didn’t land, not only because Tang Tianyi had already protected Qhianqhian behind him, but also because Qu Lin pulled out a hairpin from her hair and stabbed it into his wrist: "This is the last thing you gave me, returning it to you." Her voice was cold, with no warmth.

Her long hair scattered as she pulled out the hairpin, the red hair shining brightly, instantly rendering her extremely charming. Flicking her long hair, Qu Lin’s face was full of freedom: "Really, it’s been so long since I’ve been so happy, Luo Luo, let’s go."

Qhianqhian followed her pace calmly, knowing what she wanted, and that was great.

But just as they left the trade fair, that alluring face showed a hint of defeat, tears uncontrollably falling.

"Haha, thinking of how blind I was back then and fed true feelings to dogs, but why is it that now should be the time of relief, yet still feels uncomfortable?" Qu Lin asked, confused, but she didn’t need Qhianqhian to answer, she smiled bitterly, "People, always never satisfied..."

"Can’t find any good person?" Qhianqhian just smiled calmly: "You must believe, after all this suffering, good things will surely be waiting for you in the future."

"Yes, they surely will." Qu Lin tightly clenched her fist, then released it, looking relieved at Qhianqhian: "In the future, please guide me, little boss."

"No no, too kind, too kind." Qhianqhian continued to smile, waving her hand.

However, the trip ended successfully, Nine Heavens Pavilion stole the spotlight and purchased a lot of Raw Stones, making it a complete success.

Boarding the plane back, Qu Lin was full of emotions.

She hadn’t expected one day she’d leave her hometown in such a way.

Even for university, she studied locally, hadn’t expected her first plane ride to be when she first left this sad place.

She felt inexplicably that when she returned, it would surely be a triumphant return!

"Qhianqhian!!!" As soon as they came out, the three heard a loud voice.

Qhianqhian turned her head in surprise to see a figure flying towards her.

Then Qhianqhian was pulled behind Tang Tianyi, blocking the figure.

"Hey hey hey, Tang Tianyi, what are you doing?" Qin Nuan suddenly stopped, not wanting to make things awkward for Qhianqhian.

Tang Tianyi had a calm face: "Inertia, you’ll crash into Qhianqhian."

Qhianqhian was stunned, then laughed, stepping out from behind him and jumped into Qin Nuan’s arms.

"Why didn’t you stop this?" Qin Nuan grunted when Qhianqhian’s move hit her, looking dissatisfied at Tang Tianyi.

Tang Tianyi silently looked away. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Hmph, just know you’re a Strict Wife!" As soon as the words fell, Tang Tianyi’s face visibly turned red.

But none of the three noticed.

Qhianqhian pulled Qu Lin over to introduce her to Qin Nuan: "This is Qu Lin, the manager I invited, I’ll explain everything to you later."

Then she said to Qu Lin, "This is Qin Nuan, the boss’s wife of Nine Heavens Pavilion."

Because it’s registered by Luo Yanran, it’s naturally accepted that Luo Yanran is the boss, so Qin Nuan is the boss’s wife.

"Hello, boss’s wife." Qu Lin quickly said, surprised: "Boss’s wife looks only twenty, so young, already married?"

Qhianqhian and Qin Nuan exchanged glances, full of helplessness, only able to comply, explaining seemed a bit troublesome.

After dinner, Qin Nuan expertly arranged accommodation for Qu Lin, it’s at Haoran Group’s staff dormitory, but since it’s mostly empty, it was temporarily requisitioned by Luo Xihan on behalf of Luo Yanran.

"What’s going on?" Back at the apartment, Qhianqhian asked.

Just now, Qin Nuan was barely able to suppress her excitement, almost being detected by the overly excited Qu Lin.

"That big bowl, is a genuine!" Qin Nuan was filled with excitement: "You’re awesome, to find that!"

Qhianqhian paused, then was speechless, just because of this?

"When I went to Antique Street, Qu Lin was there too, she knows."

"But you said it was Xiao Hei’s rice bowl." Tang Tianyi said faintly from the side.

Qin Nuan was instantly dumbfounded: "Who is Xiao Hei?"

"An impromptu made-up creature." Qhianqhian shrugged and took out two items from her bag: "This is what I bought too."

"Dirty and grimy, can’t you clean it?" Looking at the dirty colors, Qin Nuan showed undisguised disdain.

Qhianqhian rolled her eyes: "Even after soaking in hot water it doesn’t lose color, you think I haven’t washed it?"

Saying this, to prove her words, she directly threw it into the cup in front of her, the water color didn’t change at all.

"Hey? Could it be you brought back some ancient dog’s droppings as treasure?" Qin Nuan looked at the dark objects with disgust, the shapes didn’t resemble carvings, they seemed as if naturally shaped stones used directly as pendants.

"Ancient? Dog’s droppings?" Qhianqhian was speechless, looking at the object in the water cup: "Whatever, I bought it because it felt right."

She wouldn’t say, these two items had far more Spiritual Energy than that big bowl.

Just saying it now, nobody might believe it.

Saying it’s rich in Spiritual Energy, Qin Nuan would mostly say things like the older the era, the richer the Spiritual Energy, then say this ’dog’s droppings’ are just from an older era...

There’s a bracelet in the bag that’s opaque, the pendant shows Spiritual Energy, yet the pendant has no reaction, like something absorbs light from it, but it’s different from ordinary objects.

Qhianqhian could see a faint Golden Light from the bracelet.

"Ah, whatever it is, it wasn’t expensive, the big bowl cost three thousand, the small ones ten, did you receive the rest?"

"Your Fourth Brother has collected them." Qin Nuan nodded, indicating Qhianqhian should feel reassured.

"That small one... well, your brother said he smelled sesame paste, claimed you bought it as a trick... then put it in the kitchen." Qin Nuan continued with slight embarrassment, glancing at Qhianqhian now and then.

Qhianqhian was both amused and annoyed: "Sesame paste? Does he have a dog’s nose?"
