Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 901 - Perfect Match

Chapter 901: Perfect Match

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.
