Sweet Beauty

Han Yuanjun immediately went home and looked at the clock on the wall. Right now, it is daytime in the United States.

He switched on the computer and opened the video app. After waiting for a while, an old man with gray hair and sports clothes appeared in front of him.

Despite his old age, he remained enthusiastic. With a towel wrapped around his neck, he wiped his sweat and sat down. "Jun, you haven't had a video call with me in a long time!"

Han Yuanjun looked at his sweaty head and laughed, "Grandpa Qiao, did you finish running just now?"

This person was none other than the international famous piano grandmaster, Qiao Hongya.

Qiao Hongya laughed heartily. "Yeah, I'm getting old. If I don't exercise now, you might come to attend my memorial service in a few years."

He was always like this, always joking about his age.

Han Yuanjun was used to it, but he still looked at Qiao Hongya with a sad expression. "Grandpa Qiao, you can't bear to die without finding her."

"Sigh …" Qiao Hongya let out a long sigh. "Of course I don't want to die, so I've persisted in my training. I want to let myself live a few more years, and it's best if I can survive until I find her."

Han Yuanjun immediately changed the topic. "Grandpa Qiao, I found another blue gemstone. This one is the same size you described to me before, but the owner of the gemstone is a twenty years old woman. She knows very little about its origin."

It's been ten years since Han Yuanjun helped Qiao Hongya find the owner of the blue gemstone necklace. So far, Han Yuanjun had found a lot of it, but none of them were the ones Qiao Hongya was looking for.

After being disappointed many times, Qiao Hongya calmed down and lost his impulsiveness. "It's alright. This sort of thing still depends on luck."

"Yes." Han Yuanjun took Liang Zixuan's necklace and showed it to the camera. "Grandpa Qiao, look, is it this one?"

Qiao Hongya only took a glance and shouted loudly, "Jun, wait a moment!"

Han Yuanjun's face lit up, "It's it?"

Qiao Hongya immediately stood up and ran before returning. He slowly put on his reading glasses and said, "No, I can't see clearly."

Han Yuanjun: "..."

Causing him to get excited for nothing!

Qiao Hongya held up his reading glass and slowly looked at the blue gemstone necklace on the screen. Due to lighting problems, he did not see it clearly.

After looking at it for a moment, he shook his head. "Things like this need to be held in your hands for you to see. Looking at it through video call, it doesn't seem to be the one."

Han Yuanjun put the necklace down. "Hmm, I can't send it to you. If you have time, you should go back to your country."

Qiao Hongya turned around and looked at the door, and hesitated for a moment, "Can we talk about it another time? Little Jing hasn't been doing well lately, I can't get away."

Han Yuanjun watched as Qiao Jinjing came over and hurriedly said, "Okay, no problem. We can do it another time. Grandpa Qiao, it's late over here, so I'm going to sleep first."

"Brother Jun ~"

Han Yuanjun acted like he was hiding from a ghost. With a 'pa' sound, he ended the video call and shut off his computer.

Jiang Ning led her four assistants out of a luxurious business car and swaggered towards the 'Girl Of The Rose' production crew.

As soon as she appeared, all eyes fell on her, frightened by her temperament and the grandeur behind her.

Jiang Ning pursed her lips in satisfaction and took off her sunglasses. When she saw Qin Yu and Liang Zixuan, she walked over with a smile. "Qin Yu, long time no see!"

Qin Yu already knew about Jiang Ning from Han Yuanjun. She had an awkward expression on her face, "Hello, Miss Jiang."

"Aiya, what Miss Jiang, you call me Ning!"

Ignoring Qin Yu's attitude, she held her arm and hugged her affectionately. It was as if they were close friends who had been friends for years.

Liang Zixuan looked at Qin Yu calmly with a meaningful smile on her face.

She wasn't stupid. She knew Jiang Ning's purpose in coming here. She chose to come at the right time.

Jiang Ning acted as if she didn't see Liang Zixuan at all. She completely ignored her and said to Qin Yu, "I heard you're going to sing a song for this movie too? Coincidentally, I just graduated from Curtis Music Academy in the United States, and I even helped produce the soundtrack for some movies in Hollywood. Because of the relationship between your uncle and me, I helped you make the album, as well as make the soundtrack for your movie."

Jiang Ning deliberately said that she had a good relationship with Han Yuanjun in front of Liang Zixuan to make her misunderstand.

Unexpectedly, not only did Liang Zixuan not misunderstand, she even gave Jiang Ning a mocking look.

Just because you were a student from Curtis's Music Academy, you thought yourself so outstanding? And what did you mean by having a good relationship with Han Yuanjun? He didn't even spare you a glance.

Not to mention Liang Zixuan, even Qin Yu felt Jiang Ning was too ridiculous. Even Su Zhengxiang, who was standing beside her, had a dark expression.

As if his movie was some kind of lousy movie!

Oh, Hollywood's movies were good, but our domestic movies were trash?

Qin Yu calmly pushed Jiang Ning's hand away, trying her best to control the emotion in her heart. She said calmly, "Miss Jiang, Liang Zixuan has finished making my album. My uncle set this up. I also really like the songs that she wrote for me, so I won't be needing your help."

Su Zhengxiang also coldly snorted. "My investment in movies is small, and it can't compare to the production of Hollywood. I can't afford a goddess like you!"

Jiang Ning used to be arrogant and proud. Normally, someone else would ask for her help, but once she offered to help, she was actually turned down!

How could she swallow this down?

"Qin Yu, what good song can someone like Liang Zixuan write? Don't let her ruin your future!"

"I had never been to university before, nor had I studied at the famous Academy of Music. But Jiang Ning, even if the hard work of an untalented person has a certain result. No matter how hard you try, you will only fail. Your parents spent so much money for you to go to a famous Music Academy, but they only just put a layer of gold on you on the outside. Whereas, inside, huh…" Liang Zixuan laughed mockingly.

Jiang Ning was so angry that her chest hurt. Liang Zixuan was actually scolding her for not having talent. 

A country bumpkin who hadn't even gone to university or gone overseas to study looked down on her?

"Alright!" Jiang Ning said angrily. "Liang Zixuan, I want to see what kind of confidence you have to dare to talk so shamelessly! Yesterday, a movie director invited me to become their Music Director.. I'll contact him in a while. Liang Zixuan, we'll meet at the Venice Film Festival!"
