Just two days before school reopened, Huo Sining had planned to deal with the piled-up affairs of Xianyu Shop and Jade Beauty, and then let Li Quan start preparing for the opening of the antique shop in Liulichang.
However, now that Gu Xu had come, she shelved all these plans, and the two of them decided to take a vacation to Zhouzhuang, near S City.
Because Huo Sining had caused quite a stir in Fuzhou, major online forums were buzzing with the news, and it was impossible to hide the information about the Gold-threaded Jadeite and Pigeon's Blood Ruby. After returning to S City, Huo Sining's phone was inundated with probing calls and messages. She simply turned her phone off, left it at home, and drove directly to Zhouzhuang with Gu Xu.
Su Qingqing, who usually couldn't wait to stick by Huo Sining's side, didn't follow this time, wisely leaving these two—who always lived apart—a space to be alone together.
