Chapter 41 Fu Jin“s Gif

Jiang Yue will change her outfit three times during the party. Aside from the black gown, she also decided to wear a red cheongsam dress for her piano presentation. And a curve-hugging modified A-line gown for the rest of the night.

She is quite satisfied with the Wang Family's seamstress for making her all of the dresses that she wanted. Even the cheongsam was carefully handcrafted to perfectly fit her.

After the seamstress left, an attendant asked her to taste all of the cuisines to be served in the party. To Jiang Yue's surprise, all of which are exquisite cuisines from all over the world.

After the food tasting, Jiang Yue was left alone in her room. Her grandfather forbids her to use any computers, so she can relax and not do any work before her birthday.

Jiang Yue let out a long sigh before sitting in her bed with a book in her hand. She is bored. Extremely bored but she will not disobey her grandfather now. She knows how much effort the old man put into this party.

Her grandfather wanted to impress her and show everyone how excellent her granddaughter is.

She was about to start reading the book when she suddenly heard another knock. Thinking it was another one of the people for the party she immediately opens her door.

To her surprise, It was Fu Jin. Today, he is wearing a Light blue Shirt paired with White Chinos and Black sneakers. His outfit made him looked both casual and dressed up at the same time.

"Hi." Fu Jin gives her a somewhat boyish grin. The thought of Jiang Yue checking out his outfit is making him a little embarrassed for some reason.

"Hey. Come in."she gestured him to come inside her room. By now, she is almost used to being around him. When she was sick days ago, Fu Jin stayed by her side all the time and took care of her.

This gesture made her feel special. A feeling that she did not feel before her rebirth. And she would be lying if she would say that she didn't like it. Because she did. She honestly did.

"So ahm..." Fu Jin started. His voice is a little gloomy. "Our branch in Hua City was in some kind of emergency, and my father asked me to take care of it."

Jiang Yue looked at his solemn expression. "So, you won't be able to come to my birthday tomorrow?" She directly asked him. She wondered why the thought of his absence was making her heart feel an unwarranted sadness.

Fu Jin nodded. "At least for the most part. But I will be back before the night ends. I will still be able to attend the party just not for the whole time."

"Hmmm... Okay. I hope everything is alright with your company." She said. Jiang Yue felt her heart skip. At least she will still see him. The thought of seeing him tomorrow is somehow making her happy. She wondered if her heart is slowly melting towards the young man.

"I want to give you my gift ahead of time." He said. Then he handed her an exquisite black box. "Opened it. I want you to open it now and promise me that you will wear it tomorrow." Fu Jin said after Jiang Yue accepted the box.

Jiang Yue didn't say anything as she continues to look at the box. The box is carefully handcrafted with some flowers. It looked antique and expensive. She opened the box and let out a gasp.

"This..." Jiang Yue was speechless. If her eyes are not deceiving her then she is looking at the most beautiful Jadeite necklace in the world. It is composed of translucent jadeite beads with a clasp made of white gold and caliber cut rubies and diamonds.

"How did you get this? I thought this piece of jewelry disappeared in the '80s?" She bombarded him with questions. It is said that this necklace disappeared after an auction in the '80s. According to the rumors, this necklace cost more than the smallest country in the world.

Jiang Yue recognized the jadeite necklace from her mother's pictures. Her mother, Wang Rou is obsessed with this piece of necklace. She even spent a quite amount of money to find the current owner of the necklace. But her mother died without knowing the actual location of this iconic jewelry.

For Fu Jin, Jiang Yue's reaction is considered perfectly normal. After all, this Jadeite necklace is one of the most expensive jewelry ever seen in an auction. His grandfather purchased this piece of jewelry as a gift for his grandmother.

"Do you like it?" He asked her. Clearly disregarding her inquiries. He knows that Jiang Yue will reject the gift if she knows the history behind this piece of Jewelry.

"Yes. I... where did you get this?" She asked him for the second time.

"From our families vault. Don't worry I asked for my father's consent. He would love for you to wear it tomorrow night." Fu Jin is actually telling the truth. When he mentioned that he will give it to Jiang Yue for her 18th birthday, Father Fu immediately agreed.

Father Fu already knows Jiang Yue's complete background. He also quite like the girl that his son fancies. Aside from having a good family backing her, Jiang Yue's achievement abroad is also not to be taken likely.

"This is from your grandfather isn't it?" She asked. The Fu family is one of the oldest families in the country it is very easy for Jiang Yue to piece everything together.

"..."

"Did he buy this for your grandmother?" This necklace disappeared in the '80s and that is when Fu Jin's grandfather became the head of the Fu Family.

Still, Fu Jin did not answer. This time he can feel the sweat forming in his back. His beloved is too smart ah.

"Are you afraid that I will reject your gift?" Again Jiang Yue did not receive an answer from Fu Jin.

Jiang Yue burst out into laughter. Ah... she seemed to like the flustered Fu Jin.

"Don't worry Young Master Fu I will not reject your gift. In fact, I will treasure this forever." She said as her face turned serious. Then she give him a sincere smile. "Thank You." She continued.
