Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Mr. Chen, you can't do this to me. Do you know how much I paid to help you purchase natural pearls? How could you do this?" Spike was really anxious.

This time he really suffered heavy losses. He originally thought that the natural pearl market would have good news, so he went crazy to buy natural pearls in the past few days.

However, no good news came after several days of waiting, and Mr. John had already stopped purchasing natural pearls.

By the time he reacted, it was too late. He borrowed a high interest rate from the bank to purchase goods.

However, the price of natural pearls has been returning to the price a few days ago. This is not the most serious problem. The most serious thing is that even if the price recovers, the market order has not been restored.

Because the natural pearl market is so big, almost no one has a special need for natural pearls.

Coupled with the ups and downs of the past few days, other jewelry merchants do not want to touch the natural pearls in the short term, so now the goods are pressed in his hands and cannot be released.

If you wait a month or two, you will definitely be able to sell it.

But the bank's interest cannot wait, and his tolerance limit is being refreshed every day.

Moreover, what he regretted most was that his original partner, Zola's clothing company, suddenly terminated cooperation with him.

This caused a huge impact on his business, and the bank began to pursue him for the money he owed.

Chen Zhao sneered: "You said you wouldn't sell it to me. I found someone else to buy the natural pearls. Do you still blame me?"

"Mr. Chen, it was my fault before. Please forgive me and please help me once."

"One minute's up, goodbye."

Chen Zhao hung up the phone directly. He didn't want to talk to Spike at all.

He brought all this on himself, and it's not like he tricked him.

If he doesn't do those little tricks and doesn't talk about getting rich, he can at least make a small profit.

Chen Zhao didn't know how much money Spike lost, and he didn't want to know.

Anyway, it had nothing to do with him. Chen Zhao walked out of the hospital and returned to the car, then drove to Ethan's place to have a sit.

Li Qing, who was sitting and resting in front of the counter, saw Chen Zhao arriving and immediately stepped forward: "Mr. Chen, this is the peace knot I knitted for you. It is a little bit of my heart. Please accept it."

"ah?"

"Chen, Li also sent me one. Is this thing really useful?" Ethan said at the counter.

"This is my intention." Chen Zhao took the peace knot and said, "Thank you, Sister Qing."

Most Chinese people hang a peace knot on their cars, which is a custom and a habit.

Chen Zhao is holding a peace knot in his hand. This peace knot is very delicately woven, unlike the ones in the domestic market that are woven by machines.

It was probably hand-knitted by Li Qing. Chen Zhao found that he couldn't understand the weaving method.

"Sister Qing, you weave this peace knot very delicately. I think you can weave more and sell them in the hotel. You will definitely make a profit."

Li Qing smiled and shook his head: "Where can I knit a few? I knitted these two in two months."

"Is it so complicated?"

"Children are not willing to learn the craftsmanship passed down from our ancestors. Now that it has been passed down to me, it will almost be lost."

There was a touch of sadness in Li Qing's tone, not sure whether it was because his craft was about to be lost or because of the death of his child.

…

Coast Guard -

"Fali, your pendant is so beautiful." A female lifeguard looked at the pendant on Fali's chest.

She couldn't take her eyes away, and other female lifeguards gathered around her.

"Is this a real ruby?"

"Impossible. How much does such a big ruby ​​cost?"

"Maybe it's an artificial gemstone."

"But it's really beautiful. The feel and luster don't look like artificial gemstones."

Why does a woman wear beautiful jewelry?

Not only to make yourself more attractive, but also to show off.

Even Fali is no exception. Fali is very satisfied to be praised by other girls.

"It's so beautiful. Can Fali lend it to me?"

The female lifeguard took Fali's Red Moon Heart, put it on her palm and stroked it carefully.

“What a delicate cut.”

When the female lifeguard placed the Heart of the Red Moon in the sun, the entire Heart of the Red Moon reflected brilliant colors.

The color was breathtakingly beautiful, and all the women exclaimed.

Attracting the side glances of the male lifeguards in the headquarters, Robbio walked over.

"Let me take a look." Robbio took the Heart of the Red Moon and said, "This is not artificial fiber or artificial gemstone, this is a natural gemstone."

Robbio just looked at the sun, then covered the gem with his hand and took a look, and said directly: "Fali, you shouldn't bring such expensive jewelry to work."

"Huh? But Chen said this is not a ruby."

"If it is artificial fiber, there is no internal refraction effect. Artificial gemstones will have phosphorescence, and the light refraction penetrates in a straight line. The estimated value of this gemstone will not be less than 30 million US dollars. You should keep it. Don’t bring it out casually.”

All the female team members looked at Fali in disbelief, with some jealousy inevitably showing in their eyes.

They all knew Chen Zhao, but they didn't expect Chen Zhao to be so generous.

Not only did she give Fali a luxury car, but she also gave her such expensive jewelry.

If I had known that the Chinese man was so rich, I would have taken the first step and snatched the Chinese man.

"Is this pendant really so valuable?"

"I'm just doing a valuation, but if you really want an accurate valuation, then find a professional appraisal agency." Robbio clapped his hands: "Okay, the leisure time is over, it's time to go to work."

The girls could never take their eyes away from the Heart of the Red Moon. This Heart of the Red Moon was so eye-catching.

Especially for women, it has a fatal attraction.

Wearing the heart of the red moon, Fali looks even more radiant.

After hearing what Robbio said, Fali didn't dare to hang the Heart of the Red Moon around her neck anymore, and put it away silently.

The female team members turned their attention away when they saw Fali put away the pendant.

Although she no longer dares to wear it at work, Fali is still satisfied with the looks of other female team members.

Everyone has vanity, and Fali is no exception.

In daily life, everyone always compares with each other intentionally or unintentionally, from appearance to figure.

It wasn't until after get off work that Fali put on the Heart of the Red Moon again, and the other girls could only look on and sigh.

Fali also bought a bottle of red wine on the way home.

"Chen, when will you come back?"

"Come on, is something wrong?"

"Can't you make a phone call if you have nothing to do?"

"Okay, I'll be back as soon as I can."

When Chen Zhao returned home, he found that Fali had prepared a candlelight dinner.

While the two were chatting with each other, Dale's call came in at an inappropriate time: "Chen, do you know what the bottle of wine that Risfall gave you the day before yesterday was?"

"I don't know, what are you doing?"

"That bottle of wine is 1842 Rawls Cellars Reserve Red Wine."

"Then what?"

"That bottle of wine was just sold for US$1.2 million at this year's red wine spring auction, and the person who bought the bottle of wine was none other than Risfar."

Phew——
