Chapter 532 - 532: Picked Up A Leap?
Translator: 549690339
“Perhaps this is a gift from the heavens?”
Huo Jiling couldn’t think ot a better explanation. Logically speaking, she was picked up at the crime scene, so someone would come to find her soon.
Now, not only did no one come to look for the thousand-year-old Blood Jade Finger, but even if Li Muyao helped pick it up and handed it over to the charity manager, no one came to claim it. The manager even said that if no one came to claim it, it would belong to Li Muyao.
Still, no one went to inquire about it. It was really surprising.
Li Muyao shrugged and smiled. Then she said to Huo Jiling,”Ling, do you think God thinks that I didn’t get an antique that I liked today and let me pick up such a miss?
However, it’s a pity that it’s not a jade key. If it was a jade key, I might have completed the mission that Grandma Huo gave me. If only you said that this thousand-year-old Blood Jade Plate was the key.”
Yes, if it was a jade key, Li Muyao wouldn’t be so depressed.
After Huo Jiling helped Li Muyao bid for the antiques, he took Li Muyao to see the antiques that were auctioned. None of the antiques gave Li Muyao a special feeling or anything different.
None of them.
It was impossible to say that he was not disappointed!
Huo Jiling could see Li Muyao’s disappointment and comforted her, “Mooncake, it’s fine. I didn’t complete Grandma’s mission at today’s auction. There’s still another one.
At most, I’ll accompany you to visit the antique streets in other cities when I have nothing to do in the future. As long as you have the heart to look for it, you’ll definitely find it. Besides, Mooncake, you still have good luck. You don’t have to worry.
Moreover, there was no hurry to find the jade key. If it was really that easy to find, Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law would have found it long ago! When they were still dating, they had already accepted the mission from their grandmother.
“Even my father’s generation has been searching for decades, but they still haven’t been able to find it. So, Mooncake, you don’t have to take all the responsibility on yourself. We’ll take our time to find it in the future. There’s still plenty of time and opportunities.”
Huo Jiling didn’t want to see Li Muyao disappointed and depressed. Besides, Grandma had also made a mistake. Grandma also said that she might appear here tonight. No one knew if she would actually meet him, not even Grandma herself.
Li Muyao, who had been comforted by Huo Jiling, thought of imagining that no one would claim the thousand-year-old Blood Jade Finger and then return it to Li Muyao, who would take it back to Old Madam Huo.
“Sister Yao, these two antiques are for you! I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to raise the bid with you today. I just like you too much and want to bid for it myself.
Sister Yao, just accept it. The antiques in these two boxes are very small and not worth much. “Meisha brought two bodyguards with her. The two bodyguards behind her were holding a box in their hands. There were two small antiques inside.
Before Meisha bid, she had specially sent a message to Li Muyao to tell her about this.
However, the cheapest antique auctioned today was at least 200,000 yuan.
Moreover, the two items that Mesa had bid for were auctioned off by many people. The final price was definitely three to five times higher than the market price.
Li Muyao felt that Meisha must have learned from Chu Ranran’s habit of giving things to others after coming to China. Li Muyao didn’t really like these two little antiques, so she naturally rejected them again.”Meisha, I don’t want these two antiques. You should collect them yourself. Didn’t you say that your grandma was especially obsessed with our Chinese antiques?
Take these two home and give them to your grandma. She should like them very much. Also, don’t follow Chu Ranran’s example and give people things at will. This habit isn’t very good.
You gave me a precious gift, I have to return it; However, there will definitely be friends who are not as well-off as you. In that case, it will make your friends feel awkward. This is not good.”
Li Muyao not only refused to accept the antique, but also told Mei Sha about the etiquette and precautions of the Chinese people when treating guests and friends.
Meisha listened with great interest and naturally followed Li Muyao’s wishes. She took back the antiques and asked Li Muyao many questions about Chinese etiquette in English, such as what Chinese people liked to do and say at such a banquet.
Meisha also asked Li Muyao about Hua’s wine table culture, whether it was true or not, whether all business could be done at a wine table, and other strange questions.
Li Muyao patiently helped Meisha resolve her confusion. In the end, she took a sip of the juice Huo Jiling handed her.”Anyway, there’s a saying in China that goes, ‘It’s not strange to be polite. But sometimes, too many courtesies would cause the relationship to become a little distant. By the way, did you understand what I said just now?”
Well, tonight’s conversation with Meisha was about various manners in China, so a lot of it was spoken in Mandarin. However, with Huo Jiling helping Li Muyao translate, Meisha naturally understood.
It could be said that with Huo Jiling’s translation, Meisha didn’t even need to pretend to understand.
Meisha smiled brightly and nodded repeatedly. She looked back at Li Muyao with bright eyes.”Sister Yao, I understand. I understand everything.
Brother-in-law’s translation is superb. No wonder Ranran always said that Sister Yao and Brother-in-law were the most compatible couple. Really, Sister Yao, you and Brother-in-law are simply a match made in heaven. There was an idiom that said,” Wolves? Yes, a man and a woman! Sister Yao and brother-in-law were a man and a woman!”
Meisha found that every time she called Huo Jiling brother-in-law, his eyes were no longer so serious and cautious. The more she called him brother-in-law, the gentler Huo Jiling’s eyes became. Meisha suddenly understood that her idol Cai Mao had said, “My sister has the best temper. As long as she can coax my brother-in-law and let him coax my sister, anything can be resolved. Then how should I coax my brother-in-law?
Of course, I was praising my brother-in-law. No, I should be praising how compatible my brother-in-law and sister were. In short, I was praising my brother-in-law and sister for all kinds of good things. As long as it wasn’t murder or arson, my brother-in-law would help me settle everything.”
When she saw Huo Jiling in person, she was still a little scared. But after calling him brother-in-law, the atmosphere became better, which made Meisha feel much more at ease.
Naturally, it also made Mesa more confident in his plan.
“This idiom is very well used. Meisha, when you have time, listen to the literature knowledge of our early childhood education in China. You can learn a lot. It can help you improve your listening to the Chinese teachers in school and also help you improve your grades. By the way, remember to supervise Churan when the time comes. She’s not a child who likes to study.”
Speaking of studying, Li Muyao didn’t forget to teach Meisha how to learn Chinese faster. She also asked Meisha to help Chu Ranran, her good friend and deskmate. Today, Chu Ranran left early, and Li Muyao still felt a little guilty. After all, she had lived two lives and shouldn’t be so childish.
Because he didn’t like her and because he suspected her, he vented his anger on Churan in front of so many people.
It was too embarrassing for Ranran. It shouldn’t be..
