Tao Liangchen
Chapter 745 Another Christmas
Su Yehao took time to find Yin Liuli and gave her a Cartier blue diamond pendant, a full twelve carats, quite large.
The necklace was a bit long, requiring her to open her collar to see it.
And when she did… He originally planned to take a helicopter for a quick trip, but he didn't return to Big Wave Bay until evening.
It can only be said that Yin Liuli's recent yoga practice hadn't been in vain; she was a little better than before.
After returning home, Su Yehao made an excuse to the little girl, saying that he had received a call to rush to Pengcheng for a meeting with employees, discussing year-end bonuses and job adjustments.
Whether it was the little girl or Jiang Yu, both had noticed Yin Liuli's existence. Sneaking out at such a crucial moment was like snatching chestnuts from a fire or dancing on the tip of a knife.
But he couldn't just leave Yin Liuli aside and ignore her. The risks had to be taken.
Meanwhile.
SK-II Company launched a Christmas gift box, which had already sold more than 40,000 units in December. Nong Qingying finished her work before the holiday and took a flight back to Hong Kong.
Su Yehao took the opportunity to ask and learned that she would be taking her parents to live with her in the feng shui house for a few days.
To avoid a collision, he couldn't see Jiang Yu for the time being.
The day before Christmas.
Su Yehao met Nong Qingying at the hi~o(* ̄▽ ̄*)ブ Garden Hotel in Central, and gave her a set of pink diamond jewelry, including earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace, with a total value of 1.9 million US dollars.
The prices of the gifts he gave were similar, and at this price point, they were certainly not cheap.
Knowing that they were just worthless carbon, he did it because the girls liked them.
Considering these collectible natural diamonds, combined with the reputation of the Cartier brand, they could barely be considered somewhat scarce. Spending money at the end of the year could also offset some taxes, so Su Yehao reluctantly accepted it.
After all, the jadeite he had given to the little girl before had never been worn by her, saying that it felt like something a middle-aged woman would like.
This left Su Yehao speechless, so he switched to diamonds as a gift this year.
Since it was a gift, of course, it should be based on what they liked. There was no need to pay too much attention to whether it could appreciate in value. Anyway, luxury goods were generally overpriced, and wasting money was inevitable. /
If he really wanted them to get rich, he might as well give them some stocks that could appreciate in value, which would be better than jadeite...
Staying in his own hotel.
After taking a shower, Su Yehao put on his clothes as soon as possible.
Nong Qingying had just finished showering as well and wore the three-piece set again. More than ten million Hong Kong dollars against her fair skin felt different.
Even when she cooperated in faking a marriage into a local Hong Kong wealthy family, the diamond ring she received was not as valuable as a pink diamond earring. It was the first time Nong Qingying had owned such expensive jewelry, and she was full of freshness.
Seeing Su Yehao fully dressed, she asked in confusion, "Where are you going? It's been a long time since we met. Won't you keep me company for a while? Tonight is Christmas Eve."
Hearing this, his eyes twitched.
Precisely because it was Christmas Eve, he needed to hurry home. The little girl had already made an appointment with Jiang Yu to go to the movies, shop, and eat snacks tonight.
Again, he wished he could split himself into four... oh, three would do. Su Yehao told Nong Qingying, "This is my hotel. The employees are very gossipy. I don't know if anyone saw you when you came in. Maybe the paparazzi are already waiting at the door."
Nong Qingying, wrapped in a bathrobe, lay on the sofa, continuing to admire the bracelet. After hearing this, she rolled her eyes at him and said:
"I'm in a good mood today, so I'm too lazy to catch you. If you have something to do, go quickly. My mom changed my bedsheets to something ugly, and she was killing fish at home yesterday. The kitchen smells fishy. I'll rest for a while before going home, so I don't argue with them again. We were so happy eating dinner last night, but it hasn't been long before they're picking on me."
"Aren't parents all like that? Who told you to live with them? It's bound to be troublesome."
Su Yehao subtly changed the subject and asked:
"How long do you plan to stay in Hong Kong this time? If you have time, accompany me to various shopping malls in a few days and open a few more counters. Especially those shopping malls with more mainland tourists, I can introduce you to business. First, make a name for yourself in Hong Kong, and then develop in the first-tier cities in the mainland. This way, it will be easier to capture the mainland market by taking a high-end route."
"It's not helping me, it's helping yourself, thank you. I'm just a small shareholder. The company employees are happier to see you than me."
Nong Qingying muttered. Since Su Yehao went to Tokyo last time and generously gave bonuses and promises to the employees, the employees now praised him, the major shareholder, and often talked about him.
Su Yehao smiled and said, "Distance creates beauty. Otherwise, I'll go over next time and scold a few executives? Then they'll praise you."
"Forget it. Things have been pretty good recently. I don't need to urge them. They're finding business everywhere themselves and asking when to expand into the European market..."
She felt weak all over after the recent activity.
Nong Qingying chatted with him for a while and said she would take a nap before going home. Su Yehao took the opportunity to leave and went home by car first.
————————————
Christmas Eve.
According to Hong Kong regulations, there would be a day off tomorrow, followed by work until New Year's Day, and then a few more days off.
That night, while shopping with the little girl and Jiang Yu, he saw that most of the shopping malls and street shops were holding discount promotions. There were long queues in front of the restaurants, and the cinemas were full of couples.
Before they even watched a movie, they were already dizzy from the noise. Coincidentally, Stephen Chow's movie was sold out, so they suggested going shopping in Tsim Sha Tsui.
Su Yehao was now considered a celebrity, and he was often pointed at in public.
In addition, some people came up to talk to him, asking for autographs and photos. He found it annoying, so he specially bought a mask to cover himself.
While shopping at Harbour City and trying on clothes.
Nangong Tian bumped Jiang Yu with her shoulder and asked, "Where's the gift that Brother Hao bought for you? Why aren't you wearing it today? Look at my necklace, it's cut from the same rough diamond as yours. From now on, we're good sisters."
Some things were better left unsaid, and Jiang Yu didn't like to talk about them.
Wearing the gift that Su Yehao gave her in front of the little girl made Jiang Yu feel uncomfortable, so she left it at home today, wanting to wait for a suitable occasion to wear it.
As for what a suitable occasion was, Jiang Yu didn't know.
The circles she usually moved in didn't need such expensive jewelry to enhance herself. She replied, "I left it at home, afraid that my parents would see it. It's hidden under the mattress. The gift is too expensive. If my mom sees it, there's no way to explain it. A necklace is more expensive than my house."
The little girl winked and continued to smile:
"Don't worry, your parents know Brother Hao. At worst, let him come over and get scolded. It'll be fine. Let's find a place to drink some wine later? I don't remember what happened last time. Do you want to relive it?"
When girls get dirty, they're often more impressive than men.
Jiang Yu blushed instantly, reached out to tickle her, and said in a low voice, "You're going to die! How can you say such a thing?"
"What's wrong with that? Practice makes perfect. It seems interesting."
"..."
Jiang Yu was completely defeated.
Su Yehao was confused and dozing off.
He was sitting in the rest area, surrounded by a bunch of men accompanying people shopping, responsible for carrying bags and swiping cards. Their conditions were similar to Su Yehao, idle and daydreaming.
