Chapter 512 - 511: Poor Professor Wu Da
"This master isn't short of money, and he doesn't sell his work. I only got him to polish this piece for me because we have some connections," Tang Yahui explained.
"No way, is it really that exaggerated? A master who doesn't sell his work?" Wu Yili exclaimed in surprise.
"Of course, there are. You just haven't seen one. Now, please give me back the pendant," Tang Yahui urged, unable to hide her impatience as Wu Yili still hadn't returned the pendant after talking for so long.
The jade nurtured the wearer, imparting a calming and tranquil effect that made one feel completely relaxed. Having grown accustomed to the jade's constant presence for two months, Tang Yahui suddenly felt a sensation of loss when it wasn't on her.
"Come on, Manager Tang, aren't you being a bit stingy? Can't I look at it a bit longer?" Wu Yili rolled her eyes at Tang Yahui, then continued to admire the pendant under the light for a long while before reluctantly handing it back to Tang Yahui.
"It's absolutely natural and stunningly beautiful, like a drop of violet-colored water endowed with spirit!" Once Tang Yahui put the pendant back on, the violet jade against her fair skin made her look even more glamorous, prompting Wu Yili to praise endlessly.
"Alright, Professor Wu, stop admiring it and let's order some food!" Tang Yahui said.
"I originally invited you out to eat to clear my mind, but now my heart feels even more congested," Wu Yili said after ordering, handing the menu back to the waiter and rolling her eyes at Tang Yahui.
"Is it really that exaggerated!" Tang Yahui said, laughing and crying at the same time.
"It's exactly that exaggerated. I used to have no interest in things like jade or diamonds, but after seeing your jade pendant today, I suddenly really want one too. You know, when a woman can't get what she wants, doesn't that clog up her heart?" Wu Yili said.
"I can't help you there. If it were any other jade carving master, with my connections in the circle, I could introduce you and possibly get you some discount. But with him, I really can't do anything," Tang Yahui said helplessly.
The longer Tang Yahui wore the jade pendant, the more she realized its priceless value—it simply wasn't something money could buy.
"Forget it, forget it. What's meant to be will be, and what's not shouldn't be forced. Let's not talk about jade anymore; it just adds to the frustration," Wu Yili said.
"What exactly is bothering you so much, Professor Wu? It couldn't be because too many people are pursuing you, could it?" Tang Yahui, glad they shifted away from the topic of jade, couldn't help but tease with a laugh.
"You actually guessed right. Not only that, but because of my age, the school leaders and some old classmates keep introducing me to these so-called elite and successful individuals. It seems to be getting worse lately. What I fear most is occasionally encountering some unbearable people who just won't leave me alone. It gives me such a headache," Wu Yili said gloomily.
"Giggle! Poor Professor Wu!" Tang Yahui was slightly taken aback that she guessed correctly, then pursed her lips and giggled.
"Hey, what kind of attitude is that? Are you still my best friend, rejoicing in my misfortune?" Wu Yili said with a roll of her eyes, seeing that Tang Yahui was not comforting her but instead laughing continuously.
"Having suitors is better than having none at all. Just pick one that seems decent enough," Tang Yahui said, trying to suppress her laughter.
"Easy for you to say. I'd rather devote my life to scientific re
"Pfft! Keep dreaming!" Upon hearing this, the three instantly felt relieved and gave Ge Dongxu a contemptuous gesture.
