Chapter 493 - Jealous Of Her Own Son
“Mommy, look. Is Burger pretty?”
“This name that you have given… is really hard to describe with words.” Shen Qianshu came back to her senses. “Ye Ling allowed you to keep the cat?”
“That’s right. He agreed.”
Shen Qianshu was a little jealous. She had tried so hard to persuade him yesterday, and he finally agreed to send Burger off when the weather got warmer. She had made such a huge sacrifice for this matter, yet when she got out of bed, Tong Hua had actually managed to let Burger stay so effortlessly.
Could it be that she was not his favorite anymore?
I really… don’t feel good! She thought.
She was jealous. She was even jealous of her own son!!!
“Mommy, what’s wrong with you?”
“Not feeling good!”
“Why? Who made you feel unhappy? I’ll help you to beat him up. If it is Ye Ling, then forget it. I cannot win against him.”
“… ” Shen Qianshu was at a loss for words.
After Shen Qianshu had breakfast, she drove to work.
The Gubelin identification industry did not get any wind of the happenings in the Lu family last night. There were no reporters invited to the banquet, and the matter was not widely reported. It was impossible for the only insider, Lu Mengxi, to publicize her relationship with Ye Ling.
It was the start of a new year. Her boss was nice. Everyone was given a red packet, and everybody except Lu Mengxi was happy.
The boss called Shen Qianshu to his office. “I have specially given you a few days off for the Christmas competition. How do you feel?”
“It was good. Thank you, boss, for being so understanding.”
“I didn’t expect that you could still be an amateur designer. You seem quite famous, and you did quite well. After all, you are Gubelin’s appraiser. Will you also be BG’s part-time designer?” Her boss also had his own concerns. He was afraid that Shen Qianshu would shift her focus.
Shen Qianshu said, “Boss, don’t worry. I am clear about it. For BG, I am just helping a friend. When I am free during the weekends, I will do some designing. I also can’t draw too many designs in a year. If I want to be a designer one day, I will surely resign from Gubelin. I will not bring any trouble to you.”
The boss looked at the slender and elegant young woman in front of him. Shen Qianshu looked younger than her age, and she did not have an internet celebrity’s face. The thin flesh wrapped her face, and she was warm and beautiful. That was just the right kind of beauty. A pair of almond eyes that were clear like the morning dew, looking as brilliant as the stars—it was the type of face that he liked the most in a girl. Her capabilities were also outstanding. She had always been the ambassador for Gubelin. Now, there was one more Lu Mengxi, who was more famous than Shen Qianshu in the appraisal world and more appealing. Her family background was also not bad. Similarly, he also had the intention to groom Lu Mengxi to become the ambassador for Gubelin.
However, that did not imply that he was willing to lose Shen Qianshu.
The Gubelin laboratory was internationally renowned. When it first opened in the city, it met with many difficulties. Many jewelry companies had questioned their team, asking whether they could produce the same certification as the Gubelin laboratory overseas.
However, Shen Qianshu had given Gubelin a very strong foundation. He was unwilling to lose outstanding employees.
“Qianshu, you know that I rely heavily on you. You are so talented, and I am worried you may practice favoritism. Since you have already made a promise, I can stop worrying. The nationwide gambling stones competition one month later… This year, I am afraid you can only enter the competition in private under your own name.” The boss was a little apologetic.
“Why?” Shen Qianshu was extremely shocked.
The gambling stones competition had always been a very important activity in the appraisal world. It was an opportunity for every appraiser to show their capabilities. Every appraisal corporation would send a representative to the gambling stones competition, and the gambling stones companies and the appraisal industry had agreements.
The appraisers which were sent were definitely the best appraisers in the appraisal corporations. As such, this was also an opportunity for every major appraisal company to compete.
Shen Qianshu represented Gubelin in the competition last year and came in first.
This year was no surprise. Everyone had thought that the representative would surely be Shen Qianshu.
