Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 253

Chapter 253: Chapter 253: The Jeweler

When Hua Ying mentioned the jade display cabinet, Samuel turned his head nonchalantly, his gaze freezing upon seeing Hua Ying.

"Hua Ying... this beautiful lady, you haven’t introduced her to me yet?"

Samuel ignored Hua Ying’s presence, his unabashed gaze landing on Jiang Cheng.

From top to bottom, left to right, as if appraising a commodity.

Hua Ying instinctively wanted to shield Jiang Cheng but then recalled Jiang Cheng’s words: She can handle it herself.

Hua Ying had already informed Jiang Cheng that Samuel was a bit... lecherous before she decided to accompany him.

Jiang Cheng wasn’t surprised upon hearing this.

A wealthy and influential foreigner, in a place where everyone flattered him, many of his inherent flaws were magnified.

But it didn’t matter; she particularly enjoyed teaching such people a lesson.

Just like now, after hearing Samuel’s words, Jiang Cheng looked at him boldly and said, "I am Jiang Cheng, Hua Ying just introduced me. Perhaps Mr. Samuel is too tall to have noticed me."

In other words, you have your eyes on the top of your head.

Samuel was completely unfazed by Jiang Cheng’s sarcasm; in his worldview, beautiful women were a man’s best achievement.

A tool to display his masculine charm, and for a tool that piqued his interest, he could afford to pamper and indulge a little.

"Hello, Miss Jiang Cheng, I didn’t expect to meet someone so beautiful in Hua Xia."

Samuel "gallantly" extended his hand, and Jiang Cheng glanced lightly, haughtily and confidently saying, "My beauty doesn’t need your praise."

With the arrogance of a cat, Jiang Cheng brushed past Samuel with a stride that suggested strangers should keep their distance.

In Samuel’s eyes, the determination to win intensified, a look of a man whose competitive spirit and interest had been stirred.

He turned with great interest and caught up with Jiang Cheng.

"Miss Jiang Cheng, are you also heading to the jade exhibit?"

"Of course, I’m here to translate for Hua Ying."

Speaking fluently in French, Jiang Cheng drew immediate compliments from Samuel: "Miss Jiang, that’s the most standard French I’ve heard."

"Thank you, yours isn’t bad either."

Jiang Cheng’s response made Samuel laugh heartily.

"I didn’t expect Miss Jiang to be so humorous."

Jiang Cheng walked on without looking sideways or responding, maintaining a certain distance from Samuel as she headed for the jade exhibit.

Hua Ying and Samuel’s entourage followed behind them.

At the same time, the jade exhibit was bustling and anxious.

The supervisor of the jade factory stared nervously at the newly arranged display cabinet, muttering to himself.

"Is this really okay?"

"Will anyone want these?"

"My heart is racing, will it work?"

"Why did I agree to it!"

The factory supervisor was mumbling to himself, and the staff nearby dared not say anything, but the master engraver was uninhibited.

"Stop mumbling already!"

"Did you forget what Xiao Jiang said? Be steady and act like a master!"

"Besides, I think Xiao Jiang is right, what’s wrong with these? These are all quality materials."

The jade factory supervisor looked at the master engraver, furrowing his brows and asking, "They’ve only been here for less than an hour, why do you trust her so much?"

The engraver, with an air of sage wisdom, replied, "So what if we just met? There’s a saying – learn something new in the morning and be ready to die in the evening. This is what knowing a confidant means, don’t you get it?"

"Just like Bo Ya and Zi Qi... Forget it, you wouldn’t understand. But Xiao Jiang, she can comprehend the meaning behind my engravings!"

The engraver’s expression of one who would die for a confidant left the jade factory supervisor speechless.

"Director, they’re here!"
