Chapter 1First Encounter In The Jewelry Store

There were many shops in the commercial district, yet the most eye-catching one was Summer, a top jewelry brand store.

At that moment, everyone in the store was serving a mysterious guest. They presented a high-end custom ruby necklace to him.

The man did not say a word, yet his strong aura made it hard for people to come near him. Nonetheless, the store's female employees still could not help but steal glances at him.

This was because his distinct, delicate facial features made him seem as if he had mixed blood. He had deep, emerald-colored eyes and cool gray hair, making him look like royalty in a castle.

Even the usually arrogant store manager was serving him with flattery. "Sir, this necklace was made by the most expensive designer to meet your top requirements. May I know if you're satisfied?"

A hand with distinct joints casually picked it up and looked at it. The jewel on the necklace was dazzling. It was magnificent, both in design and craftsmanship. However, its only flaw was the mild traces of impurities on its surrounding rubies.

However, minor flaws like this were hard for any other person to see.

"It's alright." The man had a deep, low voice, enough for the people around him to reminisce about it.

Just as this deal was about to end, a lively figure appeared from nowhere and interrupted them. The store manager wanted to scold this wild girl, but he immediately silenced himself when he saw who she was.

The girl who interrupted them had a bright smile with sweet dimples, so it was indeed hard for someone to blame her. The man on the couch also became a little more patient, quietly waiting to see what she was going to do.

"Although this necklace is great, it doesn't meet your top requirements. The third small ruby from the left has a trace of flocculent impurity. I can't let you be deceived as this would also affect Summer as a brand. In this case, let me choose a better one for you."

The man glanced at the necklace and realized that it was indeed the case. He just did not look carefully at first, so how could he realize that there was an impurity? Not only that but what was her identity? Why did no one ask her to leave?

The girl then presented a ruby necklace from the bottom of a box as if she was performing a trick. Even the knowledgeable man could not help but be amazed at the necklace. Its dazzling jewel reflected a reddish light on the girl's cheek, making her look even more charming.

"This necklace's ruby is a pigeon blood ruby. It's unheated, has high clarity, is above five carats, and has perfect craftsmanship. It's the best choice to give to a lover." Rubies were naturally small in size. Thus, rubies over three carats were already rare, while rubies over five carats were even rarer. As long as someone was knowledgeable about them, they would know that the girl was not lying.

The man looked at the girl's sparkling eyes as she talked about jewelry. Suddenly, he said with a low voice, "It's for a client. She loves rubies, so that's all."

The girl tilted her head in confusion, wondering why he explained it to her. However, she could tell that he was satisfied with it, so she asked someone to wrap up the necklace.

"You've helped me, so I should give you a gift." Although the man had already splurged on the necklace, he still wanted her to choose any jewelry she liked. However, she refused him nonchalantly.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I won't mind such a small favor!"

Nonetheless, this did not mean that the man would not mind.

Watching the girl's back as she left, the man smiled. He gently touched the ruby necklace as if he was treating a lover and thought, 'Little lady, I'll never owe anyone. I'll definitely repay you one day.'

The store manager reminded the girl who was still looking at the jewelry at the counter, "Elder Miss, I know that you like to look around in the store, but isn't today your birthday?"

That was right, she was Xia Zhiwan, the only heir to the jewelry brand, Summer.

Xia Zhiwan patted her head and said with a flustered expression, "Oh! Yeah, so I need to leave now. Next time, you guys should never try to deceive guests and pass it off as being lucky."

Remembering that it was her birthday, she could not help but get excited. She would be awakening the secret bloodline ability that night. This ability was also why the Xia family could dominate the jewelry industry for so many years!

In the Xia family villa, many relatives and celebrities of the industry gathered in their living room. They were all looking forward to discovering the appearance and the inherited ability of the Xia family's princess.

Near the wine counter in the living room, there were hundreds of ordinary-looking stones. Only those in the Xia family who had awakened their ability could pick out the only jewel wrapped in the stone from all the rough stones with their naked eye. Other people could only pick it out using a detector.

"Say, do you guys think that the Xia family's ability is that amazing?"

"The eyes of each generation of the Xia family's successor are comparable to the detectors. Just wait and see."

The guests discussed as they drank, eagerly waiting for the Xia family's successor to appear.

Her only worry was the powerful ally backing the protagonist. Then she discovered that the protagonist’s powerful ally was none other than the beautiful young man her father had rescued from the icy river last month! So Jiang Mianmian was completely reassured. With this life-saving favor, the young man would definitely not side with the protagonist against her family in the future. Moreover, Dashan took the initiative and said, "Little Lamb, I’d like to court you with the intent of getting a marriage license, is that okay?"

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?
