Chapter 901: 901
Si Yiyan brought Wen Xinya to a jewelry shop .
With a Baroque-style and red brick walls, the interior of the shop was an elegant sight .
Most jewelry shops like this were very exclusive, open to only the government and the nobles to host important guests or exhibitions . As such, they had the best items .
The moment Si Yiyan took out his gold credit card, the service staff bowed at a 90 degrees angle and welcomed them warmly . “Please be welcome, sir . ”
Those who were able to enter this shop, and had a gold card on top of that, were all VIP customers .
While the shop was humble in size, Wen Xinya could not help but marvel at the items on display . They consisted of only the world’s most famous collections .
Si Yiyan quietly whispered into Wen Xinya’s ears in a teasing voice, “Places without women in Russia are mostly nonexistent, but… I can still find places with very few girls around . ”
Wen Xinya blushed a deep shade of red . She glared at him, but deep down, she brimmed with satisfaction .
The service staff brought Si Yiyan to an exclusive area with the shop’s best collection .
The carpet under Wen Xinya’s feet was soft and fluffy . It felt as if she were floating on it .
All sorts of accessories lay behind the bulletproof glass displays . From the jewelry to their prices, Wen Xinya could only stare at them in amazement .
Si Yiyan said softly, “Even in Country Z, it’s hard to find such valuable items . We’ll buy everything you like . ”
Wen Xinya was speechless . After a long stare, she finally said, “I can’t even finish wearing all the accessories from Lishan Mansion . Why would I need to buy more?”
What’s the point of getting them if I’m not going to wear them? Might as well not buy them .
Si Yiyan smiled . “There’s always going to be a time for you to wear them . ”
Although the jewelry here was splendid, Wen Xinya had no desire to purchase any even after looking around for some time .
Si Yiyan looked at the service staff and asked, “Are there any other jewelry here worth keeping? Bring them out for us to see . ”
Since they were already here, it would not be nice to leave empty-handed .
The service staff bowed . “Please wait for a little . ”
After around five minutes, a row of service staff entered the room one after another, each carrying a tray made of ebony wood .
There were all kinds of jade, gold, diamonds and gems, each one being the cream of the crop, that covered the entire stretch of the glass display . Wen Xinya could not resist being mesmerized by them .

Si Yiyan picked up a gold bracelet from one of the trays . It was roughly five millimeters wide and looked a little thick . It had beautiful craftwork, with intricate floral carvings that were vivid and lively . The bracelet was inlaid with jade that was delicately crafted, making it a marvelous work of art . Wen Xinya had never seen such a skilled craft before .
The service staff said, “Sir, the gold content of this bracelet is as high as 100% pure gold . It is the only jewelry that is made of pure gold in the world . The design is also crafted by only the best designers from Belgium . ”
This gold bracelet was probably the most valuable among all the other jewelry .
Si Yiyan ignored her . He had skilled eyes and one glance was all it took for him to know that this bracelet had a gold content of at least 99 . 9%! That was why he chose it .
Wen Xinya pursed her lips . “I thought there’s no such thing as pure gold?”
The smile on the service staff’s face stiffened . She remained quiet, not knowing what to reply .
Si Yiyan smiled and remarked, “This bracelet is indeed beautiful . It suits you . ”
While saying that, he held her hand and prepared to put the bracelet on her wrist . Wen Xinya immediately pulled her hand away and exclaimed, “Who would want to wear such an old fashioned gold bracelet? Nowadays, only old women would wear gold . ”
Whatever she wore previously on the Poise Magazine was just to match the theme of the photoshoot .
Si Yiyan said in annoyance, “Honestly, I do not understand why women love jewelry like diamonds, gemstones, and opals . To me, those items are only slightly better looking . Their values and meanings are all just made up by merchants, that’s all . ”

He had never seen a gold bracelet with such intricate designs, which was why he had the urge to buy it .
Wen Xinya stared at the jade inlaid gold bracelet in Si Yiyan’s hand . It was hard to deny that no matter the craftwork or the bracelet itself, it was extremely delicate and beautiful . The brilliant gold was not tacky at all, but rather, it was one of grandeur .
Si Yiyan laughed and continued, “The diamonds that women love simply consists of carbon . Those pretty looking gemstones and crystals over there are just silicon dioxide . The set of opal jewelry in front of you, beautiful as it is, is actually made of hydrogen and oxygen . That emerald necklace that looks oh-so-elegant is, in fact, made from beryllium aluminum silicate . It’s only green because of the chromium in it . ”
The corner of Wen Xinya’s lips twitched .
Even the expression on the face of the service staff darkened . However, they could not deny that he knew what he was talking about .
“How can they compare to the purity of gold and aura of jade . Gold is very resistant to any corrosion . Even if it is burnt at a temperature of more than 3000 degrees, there would not be a single scratch on it . This is one of the purest things on Earth, just like my love for you . True gold stands the test of fire . ” Si Yiyan gently lifted her hand and carefully helped her put on the bracelet . With her smooth skin, the bracelet easily slid onto her wrist . The size was perfect as if it was custom made for her .
This was also the second reason Si Yiyan chose that bracelet . He knew just from looking at it that the size of the bracelet would fit Xinya perfectly, and he was right .
The golden appearance shone with the pieces of jade that were polished to a shine, dazzling everybody . When the exquisite bracelet was placed on her wrist, it looked exceptionally beautiful .
The service staff could not help but exclaim, “It’s so beautiful . I’ve never seen another customer with a piece of jewelry that suits them so perfectly before . ”
Wen Xinya was completely swayed by Si Yiyan . She felt a tingling sense of joy in her heart . That man was too good at sweet-talking . “Seems like it’s actually not bad,” she said .

Despite saying that, she could not stop shaking the bracelet on her wrist and admiring it from all angles .
Si Yiyan lightly traced his thumb over the jade inlaid gold bracelet on her wrist . He said, “In the past, when two families are getting married, the man’s family will gift the woman with jade as well wishes if they are satisfied with her . It signifies that the woman will be on equal terms with her man . All their dowry gifts will have a jade inlaid gold jewelry, which symbolizes that they are the perfect match . ”
Wen Xinya’s eyes reddened as she was utterly touched . “You always say whatever you like . ”
She was touched to tears by his mere words, how disgraceful .
Si Yiyan smiled and held her hand . “Let’s look at other accessories . Are there any that you like?”
Wen Xinya pouted . “Diamonds and gemstones have their values all shred off by a certain somebody . How can I still like anything else?”
Si Yiyan laughed heartily . “Why, that’s great . Let’s just pick the entire set of gold jewelry . They’ll be very eye-catching in the cabinet in the coatroom . ”
Wen Xinya burst into laughter . “Si Yiyan, you are actually so terrible!”
Si Yiyan shrugged . When people say that gold was bad, it was only because not many people could pull off the color . Many people ended up looking gaudy . However, Xinya was an exception . Her strong aura could bring out its beauty as well as its magnificence .
