It was already past seven oâclock in the evening when Mo Yan and Li Guoguo finished meeting the client. When Li Guoguo strongly expressed that she wanted to apologize to her, Mo Yan had no choice but to eat barbecue with her.
It was because Li Guoguo forgot to bring the documents. This client was usually very busy. This afternoon, he deliberately made time to listen to them introduce the proposal to him. They were supposed to sign the contract today. However, because of Li Guoguoâs mistake, they had to meet another day.
The earlier the contract was signed, the better. It was the safest to get everything down on paper.
âSister Mo Yan, Iâm really sorry. I canât believe I actually forgot such an important document,â Li Guoguo said with a face full of guilt.
Since the incident had already happened, there was no point for Mo Yan to be angry anymore. She smiled and say, âYouâve already apologized to me many times. Just pay attention next time and donât forget anything else.â
âOkay.â Li Guoguo nodded.
At this time, the waiter brought the dishes that the two of them had ordered over. Li Guoguo stood up and helped the waiter place the dishes on the inside of the table.
Following Li Guoguoâs actions, a necklace with a pink diamond inlaid on it slipped down from her collar.
âDid you win the lottery recently?â Mo Yan asked with a smile.
âAh?â Li Guoguo was surprised at first. Then, she caught a glimpse of the falling necklace and her face turned slightly red. She scolded, âNo! Sister Mo Yan, what are you talking about?â
Mo Yan was startled by her words and expression. She was only joking.
Her gaze lingered on the necklace for a moment. Mo Yan suddenly understood what Li Guoguo meant. She asked, âYou have a boyfriend? Since when?â
Li Guoguo blushed even more when she was asked, âJust a few days ago, he kept chasing me...â
......
âThis is a gift from him. I heard that itâs quite expensive. Sister Mo Yan, I donât know much about these things. Please help me take a look,â Li Guoguo said as she took off the necklace and handed it to Mo Yan.
Mo Yan took it and looked at it carefully. To be honest, she didnât know much about diamonds and only knew a little about the price.
Judging from the size of the diamond inlaid on the pendant, it was about one carat. An ordinary carat diamond was worth tens of thousands of yuan, while a pink diamond was much more expensive. An ordinary colored diamond was about a hundred thousand yuan. As for a top-grade colored diamond, the price would even reach millions of yuan.
Although this pink diamond necklace of Li Guoguoâs was lighter in color, it should have cost a lot of money.
âItâs very beautiful. It looks very expensive.â Mo Yan smiled and returned the necklace to Li Guoguo.
âI also feel that itâs very beautiful, but sister Mo Yan, you said that diamonds are not valuable. When he bought it for me, I didnât know. If I knew, I definitely wouldnât let him buy it.â
Although Li Guoguo said that she wouldnât let him buy it, her eyes revealed a happy expression.
âOrdinary diamonds are nothing, but colored diamonds are still valuable. and the most important thing is his heart. The price doesnât matter, right?â
âYes, you are right. Ah! Right, why donât I ask him to come over? You can meet him and help me check on him.â
After saying that, Li Guoguo made a gesture of putting her hands together to beg Mo Yan.
Mo Yan initially wanted to refuse. She was not used to meeting associates of her colleagues, so Li Guoguo had no choice but to compromise.
Seeing that Mo Yan agreed, Li Guoguo could not wait to call her boyfriend. The call was picked up after a while. In order not to eavesdrop on her call, Mo Yan shifted her attention to the barbecue in front of her.
In the afternoon, the two of them did not eat to finish their work. Mo Yan was extremely hungry.
Mo Yan placed a thin piece of roasted meat on the roasting tray. Instantly, the fragrance of the meat spread. Mo Yan was so excited that saliva dripped down from the corner of her mouth.
Mo Yan roasted a few more pieces and gave them to Li Guoguo and herself respectively. She only waited for Li Guoguo to hang up the phone before eating.
Other than the roasted meat, Mo Yan also placed the rare sweet potato slices and chicken wings in a circle, waiting for them to roast slowly.
After Li Guoguo hung up the phone, she frowned. She forced a smile at Mo Yan, âHeâs a little busy, so he wonât be able to come today.â
âMm, thatâs good too. Weâll meet each other when we have the chance,â Mo Yan said as she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
She was already extremely hungry. If another unfamiliar person came, she would not be able to eat as freely as she wanted. It wasnât that she cared about the opinions of the opposite sex, but as Li Guoguoâs colleague, she couldnât embarrass Li Guoguo in front of Li Guoguoâs boyfriend, could she?
