    Chapter 31 Cultural Relic Restorer

    It is not uncommon in the industry to change the heroine after more than a month of filming, but this is still a special case after all.

    Although Qiu Yibai had spoken out and was fully prepared, before things settled, everything had to go according to the original plan.

    The three days of filming passed quickly. During this period, Zuo Ning seemed to be in good condition. His anger was gone and his sadness was not obvious. However, he seemed to smile less and be quieter than before.

    Jiang Chunxin’s mood was worse than when she first arrived. During this period, in addition to being greeted with cold faces by Qiu Yibai, Gao Xia, Xiao Lin and others, others did not dare to be too enthusiastic towards her.

    It was past ten o’clock in the evening when the crew returned to the city. Qiu Yibai directly announced that work would be suspended for one day tomorrow and everyone would take a break. Everyone was surprised and surprised. Of course, they were also worried about the progress of the filming.

    Zuo Ning didn’t quite understand, and always felt that Qiu Yibai seemed to be hiding something, but she focused all her energy on finding someone to repair the bracelet, so she didn’t ask too much.

    She checked a lot of information on the Internet and found that things are not irreparable, but almost always have traces. What most people do is inlay gold into the cracks of the jade bracelet.

    If it was only broken into two pieces, the gold inlay would be barely acceptable, but her jade bracelet was broken into five pieces. Wouldn’t it be directly turned into a gold bracelet in this way?

    She really wants things to remain as they are, but this idea seems to be just a luxury.

    She fell asleep holding her phone in her arms. When she woke up, it was already early in the morning, and Qiu Yibai was coming out of the bathroom in her nightgown.

    “Are you awake?”

    “When did you come back?” She remembered that last night he said he was going home to discuss things with Qiu Yimo.

    “Not long ago, I just took a shower.” He leaned over and kissed her forehead, “Get up and take you somewhere.”

    “Where are you going?”

    “It’s a rare day off today, so of course I went to the World of Two!”

    “I don’t want to go, I want to rest in the hotel today.”

    Seeing her rubbing her eyes and acting coquettishly, he really wanted to eat her right away, after all, he had been a vegetarian for several days.

    But he also knew that she was in a bad mood, so he could only try to restrain himself, drag her out of bed and put her in the bathroom to wash up: “Hurry up and pack up, you have to go today, otherwise you will regret it.”

    Seeing Qiu Yibai taking him to a villa area, Zuo Ning suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart: “Where are you taking me?”

    Qiu Yibai blinked his beautiful peach blossom eyes and said proudly: “Guess!”

    “You can’t be…” Zuo Ning’s face turned pale with fright, “Qiu Yibai, don’t be kidding me. I’ve told you before, I don’t want to think about it that far. Besides, you… your family will definitely not agree, and I have never thought about marrying you. Qiu Yibai, stop it!”

    “Squeak!”

    The sound of braking resounded through the quiet community, and the slender fingers holding the steering wheel turned white. The smile on Qiu Yibai’s face had long disappeared, and there was a layer of anger in his eyes. He said in a deep voice: “You have never thought of marrying me?”

    He has always had a good temper. This was the first time Zuo Ning saw him like this, and he couldn’t help but feel a little scared: “I…I told you that day, there are many problems between us, just your parents…”

    “I also told you that only I can decide who I want to marry, have you forgotten?”

    Of course Zuo Ning has not forgotten it, but this kind of thing is easy to say. How can it be so simple if it really comes to that point?

    Seeing her anxious and embarrassed look, Qiu Yibai gritted his teeth, turned around and stared into her eyes seriously: “Tell me, have you never thought about having a future with me? That’s why you reacted like that when I said I would take you home to meet your parents at the restaurant last time?”

    “That day…I said that the day I agreed to date you…”

    “That day was that day and now is now! We have been together for so long, and you still haven’t thought about it?”

    “How long? Today, the 20th, we are together for a total of twenty-three days. We have only known each other for about forty days.”

    Qiu Yibai stared at her blankly for a long time, and finally leaned back in his seat without saying a word.

    Zuo Ning was in a state of confusion and didn’t know what to do.She always thought that this issue was something that both of them knew very well, but she seemed to be wrong.

    They say that dating without the purpose of marriage is a hooliganism. Is she really such a scumbag?

    But marriage… In the current state of she and Qiu Yibai, what kind of marriage are they talking about?

    Not to mention getting married, if she hadn’t met Qiu Yibai, she would have thought that she would never fall in love in her life.

    After being silent for a long time, Qiu Yibai sighed softly and whispered: “I didn’t want to take you home today. Although I did think about it, looking at the situation now, luckily I didn’t do that.”

    Zuo Ning was confused now: “Then…where are you going to take me?”

    Although she finally breathed a sigh of relief, she felt so embarrassed. Was she being too pretentious?And… made him angry?

    “Take you to meet someone.”

    Qiu Yibai restarted the car and saw that he remained expressionless. Zuo Ning did not dare to take the initiative to talk to him. It was not until he turned a few corners that the blue sports car stopped in front of a British villa.

    He still came over to open the car door for her, helped her get her bag, and held her hand as she walked inside, as if nothing happened just now.

    The doorbell rang twice and the nanny came to open the door. She confirmed her identity to Qiu Yibai and let them in.

    The decoration style of the villa is simple, but at a glance you can tell that the furnishings inside are valuable and the owner has great taste.

    The nanny said there was no need to change shoes and led the two of them directly to the second floor and into a large study room.

    There are oversized cocobolo solid wood bookcases on the left and right sides of the study. The bookcase on the left is filled with books, and the bookcase on the right is filled with various antiques, ceramics, and handicrafts.

    Obviously, the first floor is still a modern style for young people, but when you get to this study room, it suddenly feels like an antique. This contrast is really a bit uncomfortable.

    There was a man in a white shirt sitting in front of an antique-style desk under the window. When he heard the movement, he immediately stood up and turned around to greet him.

    The man was about the same height as Qiu Yibai, with a slim build, very white skin, and extremely handsome appearance, but he looked a bit cold, as if he was not easy to get along with.

    “Mr. Wen?”

    “Wen Kaian.” The man nodded slightly, with a slight smile on his face, “Are you Mr. Qiu Yi Baiqiu who talked to me on the phone this morning?”

    “Exactly, this is my girlfriend, Zuo Ning.”

    Wen Kaian nodded to Zuo Ning: “Hello.”

    “Hello, Mr. Wen.” Zuo Ning didn’t understand the situation at all and could only smile politely.

    “Show me the things first.”

    “Huh?”

    Zuo Ning didn’t react at all, but Qiu Yibai opened her bag, took out a mahogany box and handed it to Wen Kaian.

    That was the box she used to store the jade bracelet. She didn’t know when Qiu Yibai put it into her bag.

    Wen Kaian took the box and opened it, took out two pieces of broken jade and looked at it. He frowned slightly and said, “It is indeed very serious. You two can sit down casually while I check it first.”

    After saying that, he took the box and sat back at the desk. He opened the drawer and took out a bunch of tools. He lowered his head and studied the broken jade carefully.

    Zuo Ning looked at Qiu Yibai in confusion. Qiu Yibai hugged her and sat down on a solid wooden chair nearby. He smiled and said, “I forgot to introduce you to Mr. Wen’s job. He is a cultural relic restorer.”
