Yang Chao saw it too and couldn’t help but exclaim, “As expected of Old Master Lu. How many people would want earrings made of such material on the market?”
Xia Wan put it away after examining it and said firmly, “No, I have to return this gift to Grandpa Lu.”
“This gift is too expensive. Besides, I don’t usually wear such things.”
If it was an ordinary earring or bracelet, she could still wear it. However, with her current status, if she wore such an expensive earring, it would only attract jealousy and resentment.
Yang Chao was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Xia Wan’s first reaction when she saw such an expensive earring was not to be happy but to return it to Old Master Lu.
He advised, “Forget it. There’s no reason to take back what Old Master Lu has given out. Since he gave it to you, he thinks you’re worth it. You can accept it without worry.
“Moreover, Old Master Lu has a lot of valuable possessions.”
Xia Wan pondered for a moment. It was also the same principle. There was a saying that said an elder’s gift could not be refused.
What she thought was too precious might just be a beautiful accessory in Old Master Lu’s eyes.

Xia Wan put the earring away again. “Alright then, I’ll keep it for now. If I have something good in the future, I’ll give it to Grandpa Lu.”
“Of course, that’s a good idea,” Yang Chao nodded.
In fact, what he was thinking was that a person like Old Master Lu had seen all kinds of valuable things. What could genuinely amaze him?
However, he felt that it was already very kind of Xia Wan to have the intention to return the favor.
The two of them returned to Professor Yang Ning’s house. Zhou En was already helping Professor Yang Ning cook.
Xia Wan went over with interest and found that the two of them were actually making pastries.
They placed the dough that they had prepared in advance on square utensils and sprinkled some of their favorite flour. Then, they took the pastries out of the utensils and steamed them.
Xia Wan looked at it curiously.
When Professor Yang Ning saw her, she smiled and said, “You can eat in about an hour. I saw that it was lunchtime and you guys weren’t back yet, so I guessed that you might have eaten at Old Master Lu’s place.
“You can have some of these pastries later. When you return to your hometown, you can take some with you.”
Xia Wan nodded.
After some hesitation, Professor Yang Ning asked, “Can you tell me about your relationship with Lu Lin?”
Xia Wan didn’t plan to hide anything. She directly told her about the marriage between Old Master Lu and her grandfather, as well as how she rejected Lu Lin.
Of course, she didn’t mention Chen Mo’s role in this.
Professor Yang Ning was furious. “Lu Lin, this kid, he’s getting more and more unruly.
“He still thinks that it’s ancient society now, where he can do whatever he wants with power.
“Give me your number. If Lu Lin gives you trouble in the future, contact me immediately.
“Although my family is not as powerful as Old Master Lu’s family, I still have some influence. I can help you speak up.”
Xia Wan didn’t resist leaving Professor Yang Ning’s contact information and immediately saved her number.
Then, Xia Wan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Professor. Grandpa Lu is a reasonable person. With him around, Lu Lin won’t dare to do anything to me.”
Moreover, she believed that Lu Lin would not have time to find trouble with her soon.
After staying at Professor Yang Ning’s house for a night, Xia Wan and her husband booked train tickets to return the next day.
Xia Wan had received the money and had a new business, so she was in a good mood.
She had already discussed it with Zhou En. In the future, when she was doing fashion design, Zhou En would assist her. She would give Zhou En 20% of the money she received.
Zhou En was very satisfied with this. She was willing to help even if he didn’t receive money, let alone money.
She felt that the design of these clothes was mainly due to Xia Wan’s efforts. She was just assisting and doing some basic work.
However, Xia Wan didn’t think so. Zhou En’s drawing skills were excellent, and he also had an understanding of domestic and foreign clothing. However, Zhou En hadn’t fully explored his creative potential.
During her conversations with Zhou En, she was able to inspire him from time to time. She believed that as long as Zhou En persisted, he would be able to create many beautiful and innovative clothes..
