Chapter 136 It’s Really Vankaf

Chapter 136: Chapter 136 It’s Really Vankaf

Lin Xiang took out a pendant, which turned out to be a gift from her. The young girl was indeed clever and handy; she had stood up for Yueyue during the last parents’ meeting and would not let her be at a disadvantage this time.

Zhang Ziyue finally stopped her tears and smiled, "Auntie, if you like it, I can make a few more for you."

Lin Xiang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Wouldn’t that be too troublesome?"

"Not at all, as long as you like them. After I graduate, I will make as many as you want," said Zhang Ziyue with an earnest look in her graceful eyes.

"Thank you, then make me another bunny," Lin Xiang said with a smile.

Li Hongsheng sat in his chair as if on pins and needles. He poured two cups of tea for the mothers, "You can drink and wait."

Yun Yue started playing games on her phone, silencing the volume. Only her fingers were seen constantly sliding across the screen. Zhang Ziyue and Rong Li both wanted to team up with her, but the thought vanished instantly as they were in the director’s office.

They were afraid of Director Li.

But not her.

Li Hongsheng saw Yun Yue playing games without Lin Xiang intervening and his eyes widened. Was all this unruliness fostered by Lin Xiang?

"Pfft! Hot, scalding hot!"

Distracted, he took a big gulp of the freshly brewed tea and the scalding heat made him spit it out instantly. Standing up from his chair, he realized everyone in the office was looking at him, leaving him embarrassed, not knowing whether to sit or stand.

"Director Li, you should drink some cold water to cool down," Xiao Ye intervened to help him.

Li Hongsheng sent a grateful glance and slowly felt relief as he held the cold water in his mouth; his tongue would be out of commission for the next two days.

After half an hour, the appraiser invited by Li Feng arrived, a woman in her thirties, dressed in Sai’er Jewelry’s uniform.

Sai’er Jewelry was among the top jewelry stores in the country, with branches in various places. Cai Hong becoming a jewelry designer at Sai’er Jewelry Store meant she had some skill.

Moreover, she was rumored to be transferred from the headquarters to Lan City to assess performance.

Cai Hong, wearing a mask and five-centimeter heels, had sharp eyes.

"Mrs. Liang," Cai Hong nodded to her, and upon seeing Lin Xiang, her demeanor became noticeably more respectful, "Mrs. Lin."

Every so often, Lin Xiang would purchase six-figure sums of jewelry from their store—large sums—making her a significant client in Lan City.

Her photo was in the client files, and Cai Hong recognized her just by her eyes.

In their profession, sharp eyesight was key, followed by judgment.

The bag in Mrs. Lin’s hand was worth four hundred thousand, and her suit was tailor-made, her face gentle and delicate; she was the epitome of a professional woman in Lan City.

Lin Xiang did not recognize Cai Hong, but she still nodded in acknowledgment when greeted.

"Designer Cai, please examine this bracelet. It’s worth ten million and is supposedly designed by the master jeweler Vankaf. Just this bit for ten million, who are they trying to fool?" Li Feng spoke up with a hostile glance toward Yun Yue.

Cai Hong frowned, donned gloves, and took out her appraisal tools, "Where’s the jewelry?"

"Here," said Li Hongsheng, holding the broken bracelet.

"Place it on the tray," said Cai Hong as she started the professional appraisal of the shattered bracelet before her.

This had been intentionally torn apart.

Even to the naked eye, the bracelet’s delicacy was apparent. As a jewelry designer, she instantly noticed the bracelet’s similarity to one designed by Master Vankaf.

This bracelet was strikingly similar to one auctioned off at a charity event in Beijing just a week ago.

Her expression became more serious; rumors had it that a mysterious businessman in Beijing had bought it for twenty million. The sudden appearance of this bracelet in a place like Lan City seemed improbable.

Yet, if it was a high-quality imitation, it was too exquisite.

Ten minutes later, she stopped working, her expression complex.

"Designer Cai, what’s the verdict? Is this bracelet really worth ten million as they claim?" Li Feng asked anxiously.

She and her daughter were growing impatient. It was just a piece of ordinary street market jewelry, so why was the appraisal taking so long?

"Whose bracelet is this?" Cai Hong’s expression was solemn, and for a moment she couldn’t be certain. The damage was too severe, and the Vankaf master’s mark was gone; it was difficult for her to make a judgment.

But the diamonds on it were definitely real, and even if they weren’t worth ten million, they weren’t cheap.

Her gaze drifted towards Lin Xiang, who she assumed was the only one who could afford such a bracelet. She noticed a similar necklace around Lin Xiang’s neck.

"It’s not mine. It was a gift from my daughter Yueyue to her classmate," Lin Xiang said.

"She said that this bracelet and the necklace around my neck are of the same design, both crafted by the master Vankaf. She mentioned her friend bought it at a charity auction in Beijing a week ago for twenty million and then gave it to her. Since she didn’t wear it herself, she gave it to me and another classmate."

Cai Hong felt as if she were hearing some elaborate joke—the whole affair was unbelievably fantastical. To casually give away something worth twenty million, only to disdain it and pass it on to someone else!

Such an extravagant use of money seemed absurd.

"Who is Yueyue?" she asked, full of doubt.

"It’s me." Yun Yue had just finished her game and happened to receive a message from Lou Gao, who had just arrived at the school gates.

She lazily looked up, exuding an air of arrogance and rascality in her eyes.

Even though she was properly dressed in First Middle School’s uniform, she managed to give it a hooligan-like edge.

"You say this bracelet was a gift from your friend? Do you have any proof?" Cai Hong asked instinctively.

She couldn’t grasp the relationship between Yun Yue and Lin Xiang at that moment.

"Are you a jewelry appraiser, not a cop interrogating a suspect?" Yun Yue raised her eyebrow with a mischievous and wild look.

Cai Hong was left speechless by her retort. She had merely asked—otherwise, how could she determine whether it was authentic or not?

Honestly, she didn’t quite believe it. After all, this was a ten-million-dollar item. What kind of friend would be so generous? And if it were genuine, could she really be so magnanimous as to give it to a classmate?

Just then, a knock sounded on the office door. The students from Class 7 had stayed outside, observing as one person entered before, and now two more arrived, accompanied by a foreigner. Their curiosity was piqued, and they pressed their ears against the window.

Lou Ting entered to see Yun Yue sitting on the couch with the pose of an elderly gentleman and raised an eyebrow at her.

Upon receiving her message, he boarded a plane with Vankaf immediately and rushed here as fast as he could.

"Who are these two..." Li Hongsheng stood up, feeling the commanding presence of the two visitors, especially the man in the suit, who radiated an oppressive aura, prompting him to be cautious.

"I am the one who auctioned off that necklace, I have the receipt here. And this person is the renowned jewelry master Vankaf, who designed that bracelet," Lou Gao introduced succinctly, pulling out a receipt.

Rong Li’s eyes had been wide open since Vankaf walked in.

Vankaf!

It was actually Vankaf!

He looked exactly like he did in the magazines!

Never had she imagined she’d see Master Vankaf in person and be this close!

She was so excited!

Rong Li struggled to contain her scream of excitement.

She really wanted to go up and take a photo with Master Vankaf.

It all felt like a dream. She thought everything that happened today was just too surreal.
