Jian Ran walked towards Secretary Zhou, who gestured for her to head towards the corner.
“Secretary Zhou, did you call for sothing?”
“Miss Jian, it’s like this, Mr.
Gu has already arranged for a gown… and wanted to know if there are any pieces of jewelry you might like.”
“Here are pictures of the jewelry.
Please have a look.”
Having said that, Secretary Zhou spread out all the prepared photos of jewelry and the brochures in front of Jian Ran.
Jian Ran’s gaze fell upon the exquisite jewelry, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
The dazzling green crown was specially made by Count Dunes Mark from Germany for his second wife, Princess Katerina.
Jian Ran had heard a little about it; the crown was adorned with 11 rare and exceptional pear-shaped Colombian eralds, totaling over 500 carats in weight, which was astonishing.
Add to that the small diamonds, gold, and silver on the crown, and it’s valued at $12.7 million.
Jian Ran swallowed, then turned her attention to the other pieces of jewelry in the photos.
There were even brooches.
A Cartier diamond brooch, originating from a laboratory in Paris, its auction price had already exceeded $30 million.
This exquisite brooch comprised a 34-carat diamond and two additional gems weighing 23.55 and 6.51 carats.
“Miss Jian, both the brooch and crown are among the multiple choices Mr.
Gu has provided for you.
There are also necklaces.
Look at this, the ‘Heart of the King’ ruby necklace.
This necklace features a gigantic ruby from Myanmar weighing 40.63 carats, with a total weight of 155 carats for the necklace itself.”
As she listened to Secretary Zhou’s detailed descriptions, Jian Ran felt a bit overwheld again.
If…
She had not rembered incorrectly.
These jewels were all renowned worldwide.
Either auctioned off by a mysterious buyer, their whereabouts unknown,
Or they were works from a royal family.
Gu Mochen…
How could he possess so many priceless items?
Jian Ran felt a profound sense of wonder inside and tugged at the corner of her mouth.
“Secretary Zhou, aren’t these jewelry pieces a bit too valuable?”
“Mr.
Gu has said that if Miss Jian likes them, you can play with them to your heart’s content, just treat them like toys… Of course, you can’t cash them out.”
Because Jian Ran was in need of money, she valued the ability to cash out above all.
Jian Ran: “…”
The remark Mr.
Gu Mochen passed down was quite incisive indeed.
On one hand, it ant he was wealthy enough to be capricious, no explanation needed.
On the other, it seed to imply criticism of her own lesser nature, suggesting she was driven by her love of money?
Jian Ran narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, and with an edge of sarcasm in her voice, she said, “Hmm, I understand.
Mr.
Gu really is far-sighted.”
“Cough cough, Miss Jian… Mr.
Gu said that… in my presence, you can ridicule him to your heart’s content without any need for subtlety.”
Jian Ran: “…”
Gu Mochen…
He had won.
“Did he ntion if it’s okay for not to choose any of these pieces of jewelry?”
“Mr.
Gu said, Mrs.
Gu, it’s appropriate to wear so jewelry as an embellishnt, unless you would like to wear a diamond ring.
If that’s the case, then there’s no need for these necklaces and bracelets as accessories.”
Jian Ran: “…”
Of course not.
It looked like she had no choice but to select sothing.
Jian Ran’s eyes finally settled on the most elegantly simplistic style among the luxury jewelry pieces in Secretary Zhou’s hands.
Madam Wensha’s Panther Bracelet.
