"Did I say that? How could I not remember?" Li Qiming, true to his shameless nature, immediately turned his back on the matter.

"It seems that the noble ones often forget things. Let me remind you, Noble Li," Lu Xin took out his Xiaomi phone, opened the recording from earlier, and didn't forget to take a jab at Li Qiming, "Noble ones seem to be a certain rank of concubine in ancient times, right?"

The recording played, and at that moment, Lu Xin had said to Li Qiming, "So you agree to my terms. If you can't find it, you have to give me two platinum diamond necklaces. Are you sure?" Li Qiming had replied, "I agree to the terms, but I think you definitely stole it. Let me search your pockets!"

Lu Xin turned off the recording and coldly smiled, "Director Li, do you remember now?"

Li Qiming glared at Lu Xin with a sinister look. The two necklaces, worth over 30,000 yuan, were not a big deal to him. What he hated was that Lu Xin had outsmarted him, and he, who prided himself on being shrewd, had fallen for Lu Xin's tricks, making him feel very defeated. He stubbornly said, "You clearly didn't steal it. You deliberately set a trap for me! I won't accept it!"

Lu Xin turned to Li Xiaoming and smiled faintly, "Look, your brother is the director of the factory, yet he is so untrustworthy. If I go back to the factory and play the recording, and tell everyone what happened, I wonder how your brother, who is so untrustworthy, will make the people below him respect him!"

Li Xiaoming quickly pulled Li Qiming aside and whispered, "Qiming, Lu Xin clearly didn't take that necklace. Why did you insist he did? It seems you have a deep grudge against him!"

Li Qiming then recounted the events at the annual meeting and the airport farewell involving Jiang Xueqing.

After listening, Li Xiaoming shook her head and sighed deeply, "Qiming, even though you are 28 and have had a few girlfriends, you still don't know how to handle relationships. Your scheming against your rival makes you seem petty. In Jiang Xueqing's eyes, this will only make her look down on you. You should show your maturity, generosity, and broad-mindedness, letting Jiang Xueqing know that you love her and will forgive her no matter what mistakes she makes. Only then can she change her bad impression of you. Otherwise, even if you ruin Lu Xin, Jiang Xueqing still won't accept you and might even turn to a third person."

Li Xiaoming's words enlightened Li Qiming. He realized that his previous actions against Lu Xin might have already been reported to Jiang Xueqing, making his impression even worse. If he continued to escalate things, Jiang Xueqing's impression of him would only get worse. The Jiang family, though they had a good impression of him, respected their daughter's opinion. If Jiang Xueqing refused to marry him, he would have no hope of becoming the son-in-law of Chairman Jiang Zhenhua. He decided to follow his sister's advice.

Li Xiaoming added, "Qiming, admit your loss and give Lu Xin the two platinum diamond necklaces! What he takes from you now, you can get back a hundredfold or a thousandfold when you marry Jiang Xueqing!"

Li Qiming nodded and turned to the salesgirl, "Bring me three of that necklace from earlier!"

Li Qiming swiped his card without hesitation and handed one of the necklaces to his sister Li Xiaoming, "Sister, this is a birthday gift for you. I hope you like it."

Li Xiaoming sighed softly. She was speechless at her brother's actions. No woman wants to wear the same clothes or jewelry as someone else. However, she couldn't say she didn't like it, so she reluctantly accepted it. Her eyes, however, were already drawn to another exquisite and unique diamond necklace in the display case, which she liked more than the platinum diamond necklace.

Li Qiming, oblivious to his sister's disappointment, handed the other two necklace boxes to Lu Xin, "It seems your girlfriend has already broken up with you. I really don't know who you'll give these necklaces to."

Lu Xin smiled faintly, "Director Li, you don't need to worry about that."

He knew that Li Qiming's change of heart was due to his sister Li Xiaoming's persuasion. He wanted to thank Li Xiaoming but noticed her disappointment with the diamond necklace her brother had given her and her eyes fixed on another necklace in the display case.

Lu Xin understood and pointed to the necklace Li Xiaoming was staring at, "Director Li, no woman likes to wear the same necklace as someone else. Your sister might prefer that one!"

Li Qiming followed Lu Xin's finger and saw his sister's gaze. He finally understood and nodded gratefully, "Thank you for the reminder!"

"Change this necklace to that one!" Li Qiming immediately instructed the salesgirl.

The new necklace Li Xiaoming had her eye on was over 2,000 yuan more expensive, priced at 18,888 yuan. The salesgirl, happy to earn more commission, quickly swapped the necklaces.

Li Xiaoming also nodded gratefully at Lu Xin, "Thank you!"

Lu Xin smiled at her, "I also want to thank you for advising your brother earlier."

Thinking about getting three platinum diamond necklaces worth 40,000 yuan from Li Qiming and making both the brother and sister grateful to him, Lu Xin couldn't help but smile.

Lu Xin's smile was bright and pure, and Li Xiaoming, who hadn't seen such a bright and pure smile since graduating from university, was momentarily stunned.

Seeing her sister in a daze, Li Qiming coughed lightly, a bit embarrassed, "Sister, let's go!"

Li Xiaoming reluctantly followed her brother out of Chow Tai Fook.

Lu Xin wandered around the jewelry store. He tried to use his ability to control the gold and silver jewelry in the display cases but found that he couldn't control them through the glass. He then tried to control the jewelry on the counter and found that he could easily move them, regardless of their purity or whether they had diamonds or other non-metallic materials. As long as the main material was metal, Lu Xin could control them.

He thought about taking a few pieces of jewelry but realized that the customers were innocent strangers who had never wronged him. He didn't want to cause them financial loss, so he prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw two familiar faces at the entrance of Chow Tai Fook.

The hermaphrodite Ye Huangyang and her muscular mother Ye Yanli walked into the jewelry store hand in hand.

Lu Xin admired their confidence. Despite knowing they were strange, they still came out to scare people. This kind of self-assuredness was terrifying, even more so than Sister Feng.

Lu Xin had kicked them earlier but didn't want to cause any trouble. He had controlled his strength, kicking them in fatty areas, so they weren't seriously injured. After rolling out of the car, they rested for a while and then continued shopping.

Ye Huangyang, with her sharp eyes, spotted Lu Xin immediately. She didn't dare to confront him physically but started to curse him loudly and viciously.
