If she had known what trouble the bracelet would cause her, she would have taken that bracelet anyway.
However, it seemed that there were very few women's stuff in Mr. Vinse's house. Otherwise, his mother would not think so much about a simple bracelet. It could be seen that he was a man of principle.
Xia Tian always said that she should find a boyfriend. Although she was really not looking for a relationship right now, Mr. Vinse was pretty good.
Looking at Ji Nuan, who looked embarrassed yet seemed to feel like laughing, Mr. Vinse said, "Miss Ji is the president of MN Group and has just come back from Britain. We are friends, but not the kind of friends you think."
"Not the kind of friends I think? I wouldn't be so sure if it's another woman." Noticing Ji Nuan was a bit embarrassed, the elegant woman withdrew her hand and said to Mr. Vinse, "The letters JI-NUAN are engraved on that bracelet! And you just called her Miss Ji. You're going to give her that bracelet, aren't you?"
Mr. Vinse didn't know whether he should cry or laugh."It's all a mistake."
"It's not a mistake! You're just afraid your father and I will be asking you questions all day long if you admit that you've had a girlfriend, aren't you? You can rest assured. After today, I definitely won't ask any more questions about this. But since I've seen her, I think I should know more about Miss Ji." The elegant woman then turned to Ji Nuan, all smiles."Miss Ji, right?"
Ji Nuan smiled."Auntie, it's really a mistake."
The elegant woman tutted."You two really have a tacit understanding. My son has never paid attention to women. Since the bracelet is engraved with your name, it shows that he really cares about you. And you're both successful in career and can help and support each other in business. That's great! Although he is ten years older than you, he can take better care of you than younger men. He is handsome, and you are pretty. You two just make a perfect match!"
With that, the elegant woman took a green bracelet off her wrist and took Ji Nuan's hand to put it on."This is my first time to meet you, but I came too soon to prepare any welcome gift for you. This emerald bracelet is an antique that I got from a friend not long ago. Since you don't have a bracelet, please take it. When you go to our house next time, I will prepare a good gift for you!"
"No, Auntie, no! Mr. Vinse and I are just business partners. We're just friends..." Ji Nuan tried to pull her hand back, but Mr. Vinse's mother, who didn't only look young but also had great strength, put the bracelet straight on her wrist.
Mr. Vinse could have stopped her, but he didn't. Seeing that the matter had come to this point, he simply made use of this chance to test Ji Nuan's feelings for her, so he didn't speak but just looked at Ji Nuan.
"Now that my mother has given it to you keep it. It's an ordinary bracelet, not an heirloom of great significance. And it really looks good on you." Mr. Vinse looked at the emerald bracelet on her slender, white wrist, and said with a smile.
"Yes, I have never seen a young girl so suitable for wearing this kind of emerald bracelet. Miss Ji, your skin is really fair. This is really suitable for you." The elegant woman exclaimed as if she had caught her future daughter-in-law with this bracelet.
Her wrists were very fine, so the bracelet went on easily and came off quickly.
She took the bracelet off and put it on the table.
"Auntie, " Ji Nuan said gently yet firmly. Obviously, she didn't want to leave this mistake uncorrected."Mr. Vinse and I are really just friends. I'm afraid I won't be able to sit here and drink coffee if you keep being like this. After all, we are business partners and meet frequently. It'll be really embarrassing if our relationship is misunderstood."
Seeing that Ji Nuan did not seem to be joking, the elegant woman looked at the emerald bracelet Ji Nuan had placed on the table, noticed her earnest and insistent expression, and turned to Mr. Vinse.
"This..."
Mr. Vinse rubbed between his eyebrows, feeling a headache perhaps since Ji Nuan had refused his mother so firmly or because of his mother, saying, "Mom, to tell the truth, I did plan to gift that bracelet to her, but she is not yet my girlfriend. I'm still pursuing her, but pitifully I haven't succeeded. Miss Ji is my friend, but not my girlfriend."
The elegant woman was dumbfounded."She is... not yet your girlfriend?"
Mr. Vinse spread out his hand, helplessly."Your son's charm doesn't work on her."
She just treated Mr. Vinse to coffee but ended up in such an awkward situation.
"Auntie, Mr. Vinse, excuse me, I need to use the bathroom." Ji Nuan said politely, took her handbag on the table, and walked further into the cafe.
When she came out of the bathroom again, Mr. Vinse would have explained things to his mother. Then she could just walk back and have a small talk with them, which wouldn't be too embarrassing.
She was about to go when she saw a man coming down from the second floor, followed by two well-known figures in the financial circle.
Why was it so coincidental that she could meet him even here?
Ji Nuan stood behind a glass wall and did not go out. She watched Mo Jingshen, and the two financiers walk out of the cafe until they went towards the parking lot. Then she saw Shen Mu, who apparently had been waiting there for a long time.
At this moment, she caught a glimpse of a black Ghost and a black Bugatti that she was quite familiar with in a less obvious spot in the parking lot.
It turned out that they had early been here, but she had not found them.
They had been upstairs, and she had been downstairs. Mo Jingshen must not have seen her.
Ji Nuan stepped out from behind the glass wall. She didn't mean to avoid Mo Jingshen, but she wasn't prepared to meet him here, let alone that she had just escaped from an embarrassing situation.
She glanced at the parking lot and the two cars again and asked a waiter beside her, "Hello, may I ask where those gentlemen were sitting just now?"
