Chapter 373: 373
Seeing the police car had gone far, Su Qianci held Li Sicheng’s hands excitedly . “Did you plan the whole thing? You are so good!”
Li Sicheng chuckled and took her arm . “Let’s go . “
“Where?”
“Grandpa’s birthday is close . We should get him a present . “
She blinked . Grandpa’s seventieth birthday was half a month after the winter solstice . It was less than ten days, and she had completely forgotten about it . “What should we get him?”
In her last lifetime, Li Sicheng had bought grandpa a rare jade pendant carved with a pine tree and a parrot, symbolizing longevity and virtues . When grandpa received the gift, he had been very happy . While she… had given grandpa and an oil painting, for which Tang Mengying and everyone else shamed her . Although grandpa had not said anything, Su Qianci could tell that he had not been fond of the gift . Much later, she had learned Grandpa’s preferences . As a Chinese man, grandpa was very patriotic and never liked Western products .
Li Sicheng squeezed her face . “What are you thinking?”
Su Qianci shook her head . Thinking of her last lifetime, she couldn’t help feeling a bit upset . He drove the car out and took her to a mall . The mall was not too crowded . Everyone shopping there was well-dressed . He went to the top floor by elevator and walked to a store selling Jade . Seeing him, the owner walked up and called him, “Mr . Li . “
“Is my order ready?”
“Yes . We made it according to your design . Here it is . ” The owner crouched down and took a box out of a safe . The box was locked, and the owner used a key to unlock it . Su Qianci immediately saw what was inside . The jade pendant indeed . The owner took the jade pendant out carefully, afraid that it would be scratched . The jade was of an emerald green and very transparent . What was rarer was that it was almost without flaws . The pendant was as large as half of a palm . The texture was so good that it felt you could squeeze water out of it . A pine tree was carved on the pendant, the leaves of which were represented by the natural green part of the jade . On the branch, there was a lovely green parrot, with a natural drop of red as its eye . The work was very well done . Below the pine tree, there was a lake and a ginseng tree, a symbol of longevity . It was a perfect birthday gift for an old man . This gift was very rare and very expensive .

Li Sicheng was satisfied . “Could you wrap it up for me?”
“Of course . ” The owner was thrilled and carefully wrapped it up before giving it to him . He swiped his card and found Su Qianci looking at a pair of swans . They were not made of jade, but 18k gold . The lines of the swans were very smooth, decorated with diamonds and Jade, looking perfect under the light .
“Do you like it?” He leaned closer and looked at it .
Shrewd at his job, the owner quickly took the swans out and said, “They are a swan couple . Swans are the symbol of fealty . For its whole life, a swan would only have one partner until death . If one of the couple dies, the other one would live alone . ”
