.
"We are here to find a present for a wedding anniversary." Xiao Yun replied gently. "Do you perhaps have a recommendation, sir?"
The old man rubbed his chin, his eyes stopped at Lin Chang Lu to Han Mi Er before quirking a somewhat mischievous smile. "But Seeing the expression of the other two customers, are you perhaps searching for the rare antique accessories?"
Hitting the mark, Lin Chang Lu widened her eyes and boldly interrogated. "Do you perhaps have an idea which accessories is the rare item, here?"
"Unfortunately I don't, I'm only one of the few employees here, you see. They wouldn't want to tell such a secret to a small employee like me." The Old man said and Lin Chang Lu furrowed her brows. How useless, she thought, her eyes partially blaming the old man who knew nothing of the shop.
"That's a bummer." Han Mi Er sighed.
"But even if it isn't a rare item all the accessories here are worthy of their own way. Even if it isn't a rare item it's still beautiful." Xiao Yun reassured Han Mi Er.
"That's true..." Han Mi Er hummed.
Just as the group was served by the elder employee, a young male employee of the same shop who had been staying at the counter saw the old man discussing and rolled his eyes. He walked toward the group, greeting with a pleasant smile and held the old man' shoulder to give him a stern warning in a hushed tone. "Old man, you can move now and clean the dust on that left side. You have a bad eyesight, don't stay in the way." Although the young employee used a low voice the four girls could hear their talk loud enough. Xiao Yun observe the old man showed an embarrassed expression to retreat from the place and furrowed her brows at the rude young man. Perhaps what he said was a fact as the old man was quite old but surely there's another way than speaking bluntly.

The young employee rubbed his hand, peering at Lin Chang Lu he seemed to know the identity of the woman. "Should I show you the best accessories among the customers, first customers? Or perhaps do you want to see the catalogue?"
"Both if you please, will you come with us, Xiao Yun?" Lin Chang Lu directed her question.
"Uhm, no. I will take a look around first." Truth was, starting from the time she entered the shop, her gaze were taken into a jade bracelet hung inside a blue box on the corner of the wall. Han Mi Er travelled her eyes around, looking at the sparkling jewel beside Xiao Yun when she noticed something and pulled the sleeve of her cloth. "Xiao Yun look at that one."
Xiao Yun turned her eyes and spotted a full moon ring made into a pendant which was created of jade and small gem stones. "Doesn't it suit the necklace you're wearing now?" She pointed and after taking a look it was very true, the design of the necklace which she was wearing no was very much alike to the one Han Mi Er pointed her.
"Did that one took your attention, customer?" The Old man questioned as he came back to her side after cleaning the spot the young employee mentioned.
"Yes, it's beautiful. Do you have an recommendation for a wedding anniversary gift, sir?" Her polite words brought a gentle smile to the old man's face.
"If it is for a wedding anniversary, I suggest this one, Miss. The one you're seeing now." The Old man drew her attention to the bracelet that took her attention before. "This is actually a couple necklace, you see. The jade design of the flower here means everlasting love." The Old man took the blue box, offering a closer view to the bracelets that had an edelweiss flower designs craved on the surface of jade.

Her black eyes reflected the jade color, even though it was a very simple accessory, trailing her hand on the surface of the bracelet, she made up her choice. "How much would this be, sir?"
"Six million yuan, Miss." Xiao Yun looked at the bracelet pleased with the suitable price. It isn't that expensive if one compared it with the other presents gave by the guests, however, what was important to her is the meaningful hidden beneath the bracelet. "Please pack this one." She trailed and went to the full moon necklace to add. "Also this one if you please."
The old man saw Xiao Yun as a pure person. Often time customers who came to the shop would scan all the accessories only to find the rare items, making him to frown at how they ignore the rest of the accessories. However, Xiao Yun took every accessory on their own way, praising them without a hint of greed. "I will do so, please follow me, miss." Xiao Yun nodded, leaving with Han Mi Er who seemed to be wanting to purchase a few accessories she found magnificent.
Arriving at the corner, she was reunited again with Lin Chang Lu. Pulling a teasing smile, Lin Chang Lu glanced at the bracelet the old man was holding beside her and narrowed her eyes. What was she doing with such a simple bracelet? In comparison, what Lin Chang Lu bought was a sparkling necklace which could fall down aloft the chest when it was wore on for Wang Yan Zhi. "Are you going to buy that alone, Xiao Yun? Didn't you said you came to buy Grandmother and grandfather a wedding anniversary gift?"
"I am." Xiao Yun replied firm and brief, not wanting to bother with her anymore. Han Mi Er over her side also agreed to how curt She replied Lin Chang Lu. Moth should be fired off quickly after all. Turning her face, she waited for the old man to enter the counter when the younger employee had proceeded ahead of him.
"The total would be twelve million yuan, Miss would you like to wrap the item in a gift wrap?" Lin Chang Lu nodded and glanced askance toward Xiao Yun. "Oh right, Xiao Yun do you want me to pay the necklace for you?" At her words, Xiao Yun frosty eyes prickled.
"I don't mean any offense, you are still a student aren't you? I'm worried you can't pay the bracelets with your yearly allowance." She added again, feigning her kind act which was nothing but insult right now.
"That's true, you don't have to worry Xiao Yun. Unlike you, Chang Lu has enough money to pay for you too." Xie Ru quipped, aiding Lin Chang Lu in their clown act.
Han Mi Er glared at the two sending some silence to Xie Ru for a moment. "Oh, shut up it is none of your business isn't it?-"
"Ah! But I don't think we should worry of Xiao Yun's budget." Suddenly Xie Ru clapped her hand in attention. "After all, Mr. Wang would surely support your finance. Ah! But I remember haven't you've been working as a model for Azure too? Perhaps you received your payment for selling your face? Oh no, I mean, your picture." Lin Chang Lu' smile widened from satisfaction by her Friend's degrading remark.
