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.

The Villain's Wife

-COMPLETED- WARNING: FL is scheming and evil. Like almost every dramatic romance novel, Lily Qin’s story began with an evil stepmother, a scheming stepsister, and a dumb ex-fiance. At twenty, she fell prey to their grand scheme and became the laughingstock of the country. In despair, she left. Seven years later, Lily Qin rose from the ashes. She was labeled as an empress, an iron lady, a genius, and a prodigy. She was Miss Tycoon. Now, at twenty-seven, Lily Qin was an established businesswoman who was single-handedly controlling her multinational company abroad. She was beautiful, smart, and successful. Women envied her while men couldn’t help but worship her ethereal beauty. With her devastating past, everyone had assumed that Lily would exact revenge on the people who had wronged her. Who would have guessed that behind that beaming smile of hers was a numb heart that aimed only to make more profit? "You got it wrong." Lily elegantly propped her chin on the back of her hand. "I am seeing you today because we have something in common. We're both villains in somebody else's eyes. And I think it's time for us villains to get our own happy ending. Don't you think so?" --- Zhuo Jingren’s love for Lily Qin was something that only he knew. Ever since they were children, he had his eyes on her. Yet, every time he had tried to confess, he would end up fainting from nervousness. So when Lily Qin promised to marry him if he became richer than her, Zhou Jingren did not hesitate to leave the orphanage and work his way up just to become her man. Who would have thought that years later, when he was successful and feared by many, he would come back to an engaged Lily Qin? Then she mistook him for an escort after eating his tofu? Preposterous!

He was about to say something mean when she suddenly spoke. “Are you my new bodyguard?” She did not even wait for him to answer before tossing her car keys at him. “Drive. Let’s go wreak some havoc.” Thus, the mafia’s big boss became Lily Qin’s bodyguard. --- "So? What do you want as a compensation?" Zhuo Jingren asked her once again before laying down next to her. His elbow was resting on the ground and his palm was supporting his head as he looked at her intently.  The first thing that Lily noticed about Zhuo Jingren when he laid next to her was his exposed tanned chest. This made him look more casual… and hot. She didn't even realize she was staring at the latter. "Why are you staring at me like that?" He smirked at her. "Do you want me to compensate you with my body?" Lily immediately rolled her eyes at the latter. "Who wants your body? Hmp! I want money!" "Your mind is always thinking of money but your body actually betrays you. Am I right to say that I have a shameless wife?" "Hah! I am a strong and independent woman of the 21st century. I know what I want. But if you insist on giving your body, I will take it too!" Lily shamelessly said, taking off her stilettos. However, just when Lily was about to lie down beside Zhuo Jingren, he suddenly pulled her on top of him. With her body on top of his, their faces were really close and they could even feel each other's breath.  "What a shameless woman," he noted, the smile on his face only deepened. .... Cover is mine.
