Aside from Lin Zhiming and Zhou Wenwei, no one else present knew what "Tears of the Goddess" referred to. In fact, Lin Zhiming was also not very clear about this necklace. He wanted to give a necklace to Yao Jing and asked Wang Hai for advice. Coincidentally, Wang Hai had recently received a list of items sold at the Christie's summer auction, which included the "Tears of the Goddess." Wang Hai then sent Lin Zhiming a photo of the necklace.
Lin Zhiming thought it looked quite high-end and asked Wang Hai to arrange for someone to buy it. Although it cost over four million dollars, for Lin Zhiming, it was comparable to buying a cabbage on the street.
Zhou Wenwei's reaction surprised Lin Zhiming. Why was he so astonished by a necklace? And with such an expression of surprise, hadn’t he instantly shattered the superiority his wife had felt facing Yao Jing?
Still immersed in shock, Zhou Wenwei took a couple of steps forward and reached out to grab the necklace, but Lin Zhiming blocked him with one hand.
“Sorry, sorry!” Zhou Wenwei realized he had lost his composure and stepped back, apologizing to Lin Zhiming, “Mr. Lin, I didn’t mean to act like this, I’m just too shocked.”
“Husband, isn’t this just a diamond necklace? You’re an internationally renowned gem appraiser; what necklace haven’t you seen? Is it really necessary to be this way?” He Shuhui stepped up to Zhou Wenwei's side, awkwardly smiling as she linked her arm with his.
“Can you let me finish the process?” Lin Zhiming asked with a stern face. He had waited a long time for this necklace to personally put it on Yao Jing, but now Zhou Wenwei was causing a scene.
“Sorry, sorry!” Zhou Wenwei kept apologizing as he stepped back, but his eyes remained glued to the necklace.
Everyone around was also gazing at the necklace, all wearing expressions of shock.
They had heard Zhou Wenwei's words—this necklace was worth four hundred and fifty thousand dollars! That converted to over twenty million in the local currency!
What does it mean to have a necklace worth over twenty million?!
In the eyes of these people, a necklace valued at a million was already something they could only aspire to. A necklace worth ten million? They could only see such things in the news if it weren’t for tonight.
Yao Jing actually didn’t like being the center of attention. She was assertive at work but led a very ordinary and low-key life. Perhaps for others, this was the moment to shine, but Yao Jing felt very out of place. She didn’t love Lin Zhiming, let alone have feelings for him; his two-day transformation wasn’t enough for her to develop any feelings. Thus, a necklace worth tens of millions left her feeling bewildered.
Lin Zhiming, however, felt no embarrassment at all. He picked up the necklace and walked over to Yao Jing.
Yao Jing looked at Lin Zhiming and eventually revealed a smile.
At this moment, she wouldn’t ruin Lin Zhiming’s excitement.
Lin Zhiming smiled, carefully putting the necklace around Yao Jing's neck.
Her fair neck paired with the dazzling necklace complemented each other, instantly elevating their status.
No wonder countless women throughout history have bowed to men for jewelry; these dazzling pieces exist for women.
“Thank you,” Yao Jing said.
“Don’t mention it,” Lin Zhiming replied with a smile and a shake of his head.
At that moment, Song Siqing suddenly spoke up.
“Does this necklace really cost over four hundred thousand dollars?” she asked.
Song Siqing’s question echoed the thoughts of many; a necklace worth over four hundred and fifty thousand dollars was indeed shocking. Everyone knew such expensive necklaces existed in the world, and there were even more expensive ones, but they were reluctant to believe that such a necklace would be in Lin Zhiming's hands.
“It’s four hundred and fifty thousand dollars, not a cent less!” Zhou Wenwei exclaimed excitedly.
“You certainly know a lot!” Lin Zhiming remarked.
His response confirmed Zhou Wenwei’s statement.
This necklace was indeed bought for four hundred and fifty thousand dollars!
That’s incredibly extravagant, isn’t it?!
Everyone couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
