74, ruby
Who told him to say so seriously?
Jiuli didn't tell Jin Keduo, "Just give you a few days. This period is calculated based on the time of your original world. Considering that you are a new missioner, just ten days. Ten days to memorize
If you don't come down~~" He glanced at Jin Ke secretly, which made Jin Ke's heart skip a beat before he heard Jiuli say, "Then I will detain you in the kindergarten. During this period, you will not be able to come to your original world, and you will not be able to do tasks.
I hope you can understand the significance of this."
So insidious! If you can’t recite it, you have to be locked up in a small dark room. Jin Ke exhaled, forget it, she recites it! Isn’t it just an endorsement? Very good. When she upgrades to a high-level tasker in the future, she will make things difficult for him!
"By the way, how can you come to my origin world? Can other missionaries do the same?" Do missionaries enter various worlds so unscrupulously?
Jiuli replied, "Of course not. Ordinary missionaries are bound by the rules of the fast-traveling world and will not travel around all walks of life at will like me. I have reached several thousand levels, otherwise I would not have this privilege."
Thousands of levels! Jin Ke was surprised. She didn't expect that he had reached thousands of levels. At the same time, she became more determined to upgrade.
"Well, since you are not ready yet, I will come back in ten days and leave first." Chong Jinke raised his glass, Jiuli put down the glass and disappeared, but from the beginning to the end, no one else in the hall did
Noticing that Jiuli had disappeared, even Murong Yi, who paid attention to Jin Ke from time to time, didn't notice that anyone was missing.
Jin Ke was upset after Jiu Li left. She raised the cup to her lips. Thinking of Jiu Li's words about the evil spirit's urine, she felt a chill in her heart. She quickly put down the cup, feeling a shadow of the wine in her heart.
"Xiao Ke, everyone is playing in front. Why are you staying here alone? Don't you feel bored? Come on, I will take you over to play with them." Murong Xue appeared in front of Jin Ke at some point and wanted to pull Jin Ke.
Ke went to the place where those girls were having fun.
Jin Ke slowly dodged away, "No, you go and play."
Glancing at the group of wealthy ladies in front of him who were chatting happily, Jin Ke was not interested in the compliments among them.
Murong Xue thought Jin Ke was embarrassed, so she waved her hand, "Xiao Ke, let's go. You have nothing to do sitting here alone anyway. I will introduce you to my friends so that you won't be lonely here."
Single.”
Murong Xue did not despise Jin Ke as much as Murong Yan did, nor did she reject Jin Ke's arrival. Since cousin Yi asked her to play with Jin Ke, she could play with him. She had nothing to lose anyway.
Jin Ke couldn't resist Murong Xue's enthusiasm and was dragged to the front by her.
"Sisters, look, I have brought back another friend. This is my sister Xiaoke. You must take good care of her in the future." Murong Xue introduced to everyone with a smile.
Those wealthy ladies did not exclude Jin Ke, and responded with a smile, "Of course, we are all friends."
In order not to offend Murong Xue's kindness, Jin Ke also sat with them.
It's just that these rich ladies were either talking about jewelry or major famous brands. Jin Ke was not keen on these, so she didn't say much, but her silence was considered by those rich ladies to mean that she didn't know what they were talking about.
After sitting in the hall for a day, listening to those wealthy ladies chasing each other and showing off to each other, Jin Ke was bored to the core.
In the evening, the dinner finally arrived. They walked to the hall where Mr. Murong and the others were sitting. Under the bright lights, elites from all walks of life were dressed appropriately, gentlemanly, in suits and ties. Among them, reddish wine was washed away in the cups, and their faces were formulaic.
smile.
Jin Ze was also there. When Jin Ke saw him, his eyes met with that of Jin Ze. Jin Ke nodded and turned his head indifferently. Jin Ze's eyes were deep.
At the banquet, the third lady smiled as brightly as a spring flower. Murong Huan accompanied her. There was tenderness between the mother and daughter, and their golden lips curled up.
She stood with Murong Xue and the others.
"Everyone!" A high platform was set up in the center of the hall. On the platform, a host in a tuxedo raised his hand and shouted.
"Today is Madam Murong San's birthday banquet. Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to come here. Now I announce that the banquet has officially begun!"
"Bah bang bang!" There was thunderous applause, and everyone's attention was attracted to the host.
The host smiled appropriately, "However, before that, we have to carry out two important etiquettes. The first is to cut the cake! The second is that the juniors should show the prepared gifts to Mrs. Murong San and Mr.
All the distinguished guests here see the filial piety of all the young masters and ladies!"
The main event is here!
"Ask the waiter to bring the cake!" As soon as the host said this, several people wearing white waiter uniforms came slowly with smiles on their faces pushing a large cake that looked to have more than ten layers.
When the cake was pushed to Madam Murong's side, the waiter took out a delicate knife and handed it to her. Madam Murong held the handle of the knife with a happy face.
When the music started, the lights gathered under the hands of the three ladies.
After the cake was cut, the waiter distributed it to each guest. Jin Ke took a bite and found it too sweet.
After everyone finished eating the cake, the host announced the second task and sent a waiter to collect the gifts from each Murong family member and display them in front of the guests. Jin Ke also handed over the gem necklace with his name written on it.
, Murong Huan followed the third lady with a smile on her face. She looked at Jin Ke's gift and was lost in thought for a long time.
Jin Ke just watched boredly as the host showed everyone's gifts.
Birthdays for rich people are different. The third lady not only held such a big banquet, but the gifts given to her by the younger members of the Murong family were all rare and expensive jewelry.
Every time a gift is opened, the host will make a sound of admiration, and then display the picture of the gift on the big screen behind him. No matter whose gift it is, everyone will warmly applaud.
What Murong Huan gave as a gift was an orchid brooch made of sapphire, which reflected a gentle blue light under the light, and the third lady was also very moved by Mianzi.
Since the gifts are arranged according to the age of the giver, Jin Ke's ruby is slightly behind.
This etiquette of appreciating gifts in public made Jin Ke feel sleepy.
"Next, it's Miss Ten's gift. What do you think it will be?" The host held the gift box and placed it at palm height.
The people below were also whispering to each other and guessing what was in the gift box. While they were discussing, the host opened the gift box and was stunned!
The host lost his voice, and the guests below were confused and didn't know what was in the gift box.
The host's eyes changed from shock to surprise, then to amazement, and then back to calmness. His expression changed constantly, making people really curious about what he was holding.
When Murong Yan was happy, it couldn't be because of something that couldn't be put on the stage, right? Huh, look how she escaped this time. Then, she looked at Jin Ke with gloating, provocation and disdain in her eyes.
Even Murong Yi looked at Jin Ke with concern and worry. Jin Ke accidentally saw their eyes and was speechless, what's going on?
She touched her cheek. Was there something on her face?
The host didn't move for a long time. Even old Mrs. Murong couldn't hold it any longer. She called a waiter and whispered a few words. The waiter came to the host and said a few words. What exactly did she say? He was too far away.
No one heard.
The host looked at the confused reactions of the guests below. He immediately smiled and said, "I'm really sorry. I was distracted just now. I apologize to everyone."
He bowed with sincerity.
Then he began to explain, "The reason why I was in a daze just now is because Miss Ten's gift was so unexpected and so beautiful. It shocked me so much."
When these words came out, the guests became even more confused.
The host smiled and didn't say much. He put the ruby necklace under the light and showed it on the big screen.
"Wow!" When they saw the necklace, everyone was shocked.
"Oh my god! Is this a ruby?" A lady forgot her etiquette and exclaimed.
This necklace is so luxurious, with such a large gemstone, the noble red light flashes, eye-catching.
Jin Ke looked at the surprised eyes of the guests and the women of the Murong family. Well, she really couldn't appreciate the beauty of this necklace. She just thought it was clumsy and crude. Maybe it was because she didn't understand jewelry.
"Xiao Ke, where did you find such a big ruby with such a good style? Also, such a beautiful piece of jewelry must not be cheap!" Murong Xue asked Jin Ke, keeping her eyes on the ruby.
Jin Ke replied softly, "I just bought it by chance. It's not expensive, just 10 million." Jin Ke was confused about the number, mainly because she didn't know how to define the value of this necklace. She hadn't thought about it before.
Pass.
"Ten million!" Murong Xue didn't believe it. From her experience and perspective, this necklace couldn't be fake. Moreover, in the eyes of so many people, if the necklace was fake, someone would always recognize it.
I forgot that this place is full of aristocratic ladies who are immersed in jewelry all day long.
"Why is it so cheap?" Murong Jia also said.
Jin Ke pursed his lips and said, "Maybe the shop owner thought I was a nice person and gave me a price reduction!"
Murong Xue, Murong Jia "......"
Just brag, it will help others reduce the price for you, what about the liar?
However, seeing that Jin Ke didn't want to say anything, the two of them stopped asking.
"Xiao Ke is really thoughtful!" Mrs. Murong San was very satisfied. She had always liked these rubies. Such a big ruby would be dignified when worn in the future.
Then, she wondered, they only gave 100 million. The material and workmanship of this necklace were both priceless and unmarketable. How did Xiaoke get it?
Soon, under the flattery of the host, the third lady forgot to investigate the origin of the necklace, and was only happy with Jin Ke's "filial piety".
Murong Huan next to her looked very unhappy, very unhappy, and she was afraid that people would see her, so she quickly lowered her head to cover her eyes, making it difficult for people to peek.
Since she had been in the world of cultivation for tens of thousands of years, Jin Ke, who had sensitive senses, noticed it, but she didn't take it to heart.
Chapter completed!
