Chapter 967: Genius Designer S’s Early Works As if afraid that Qiao Nian would misunderstand, she paused for a moment and added, “It’s quite beautiful.”

Qiao Nian put down the necklace and raised her eyes. A little lazy and tired, she replied calmly, “I don’t know. In a shop, I suppose.”

In a shop?

The pressure on Tian Siqi suddenly reduced significantly. Her eyes flickered again and she thanked her politely. “Alright, thank you. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Qiao Nian nodded. She didn’t care.

Tian Siqi did not court a rebuke and walked away quickly.

Returning to her group of friends, she shed her gentle and sweet expression and said disdainfully, “I’ve asked. She said that she bought that necklace at the shop.”

She paused again and tidied her chestnut-colored hair before continuing casually, “I just went closer to take a look. That’s the early work of Seven’s designer, S. It’s from the Stars Series, a limited edition. There are only three designs in the entire series. If hers is authentic, it will be worth at least a seven-figure sum. Based on the popularity of S’s work now, it might be even more than that. With some hype, it might even reach an eight-figure sum.”

The people in Beijing were not short of money, but an eight-figure sum was not peanuts to them.

It was still expensive.

Tian Siqi wasn’t considered a member of the Beijing socialite circle and was only a celebrity in the entertainment circle. However, Tian Siqi was lucky. Not long after she debuted, she relied on her company’s connections and met someone important who helped her out along the way.

The nobles took a liking to her appearance and felt that she had a blessed face. They also looked for an expert to study her birth characters. It was said that Tian Siqi was a fortunate person.

That person who helped her had quite a number of connections in Beijing. Although he couldn’t compare to the people in the top circles, he was at least considered a character at the edge.

Seven was a luxury brand under Cheng Feng Corporation. Coincidentally, Tian Siqi’s benefactor was surnamed Yuan.

With this connection, Tian Siqi, the ‘mistress’ who was doted on by this important person, was able to enter the circle of the capital city’s socialites and noble ladies. She relied on her connections to obtain the tickets to the grand show, but it was not in the front row but in the third row.

“If it’s real? Are you saying that hers isn’t?” A wealthy woman who wasn’t used to seeing her spoke slowly with a questioning tone. “That’s impossible. Who would wear a fake during a show?”

Tian Siqi had a backer and so was very confident in her words. She calmly replied to the doubts, “I’m not saying that what she’s wearing is definitely a fake. It’s just that everyone who knows of Seven knows that all the works of their designers are sold in shops. But, only the works of their star designer, S, will never be sold in shops. They’re all limited edition. Basically, once they’re out, their designs will be reserved by others.

“I just went to ask her. She said that she bought her necklace at the shop.”

The others were silent for a moment. They didn’t say anything, and it was obvious that they believed most of it. However, the noble woman who was not quite on good terms with her sneered and said, “You obviously mean that she’s wearing a fake necklace, why make it sound so nice? How could someone wearing a fake sit in the first row? How familiar are you with Cheng Feng Corporation, and why are you only sitting in the third row?”

These words were very insulting.

Tian Siqi’s face flushed red. She gritted her teeth and wanted to retort, but she didn’t know how to.

Her supporter was indeed from the Yuan family, but everyone in the circle knew that the boss of Cheng Feng Corporation, Yuan Yongqin, had fallen out with the Yuan family in the early years. She had not returned home for more than 10 years. It was only some time ago that the relationship between the two sides eased up slightly and they began to interact again.
