She said these words bluntly, which made Mrs. Zhou's face darken instantly. However, she had been in the circle of ladies for so many years and had good relationships with many people, so she had some tricks.

She slightly raised the corner of her mouth: "I heard that you have been taking care of Zhou Mian while he was hospitalized. If possible, I would like to invite you to our home tonight."

Zhou Mian noticed his mother's hostility for the first time, and he immediately stopped her: "Mom, we have been on a plane for too long today and are a little tired. We should let her go back and rest first."

He was obviously protecting others, which made Mrs. Zhou unhappy.

Shi Yue also took the opportunity to smile and said: "Mrs. Zhou, thank you for your hospitality, but I have an appointment tonight, so I will leave first."

Coincidentally, Xingxing, who came to pick her up, had already arrived and stood at the exit waving his arms enthusiastically towards her.

After she said goodbye to Zhou Mian, she grabbed her suitcase and left.

On the way home, there was a low air pressure in the car. Mrs. Zhou looked to the side and saw her son with his eyes closed, leaning on the back seat and dozing off. He looked like this, he didn't want to talk to her at all.

Mrs. Zhou's chest was filled with breath, and she spoke to her son in a cold tone for the first time: "From now on, you must keep a distance from this Shi Yue, and you are not allowed to see her again!"

After half a day, Zhou Mian lazily opened his eyes. His narrow fox eyes were inherited from his mother, but they had a fascinating temperament on his face.

"Mom, how old am I? Do you still want to interfere in your friendship?"

Mrs. Zhou had been very angry for a long time, but it was her always filial son who did such a thing, making her not sure what kind of attitude she should maintain.

She softened her tone again and said sincerely: "You are already an adult, so of course I can't care about your friends. But if you are so close to this Shi Yue, others will inevitably gossip."

She gave it a subtle reminder, fearing that her son would be unhappy if she said it too bluntly.

Zhou Mian chuckled softly. He lowered his head and straightened his sleeves, with deep eyes: "Shi Yue has already divorced Qiu Xichen. What gossip can you say? It doesn't matter how close I get to her, it's all legal.

"

These words were like a huge boulder smashed into the calm water, making Mrs. Zhou so shocked that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. Her pupils shrank suddenly and she shouted angrily: "You... do you know what you are talking about? What about that Shi Yue?"

Identity, you still want to get closer!"

Zhou Mian didn't mind letting his parents know what he was thinking. He said everything frankly and straightforwardly: "Mom, I take responsibility for everything I say. I hope you can be mentally prepared as soon as possible."

Mrs. Zhou's face changed. She thought that Shi Yue was beautiful and charming, and she hung around her son all day long, so it was inevitable that she would not attract his attention.

She was about to open her mouth and have a good talk with him. This woman came from the Qiu family. Looking at the whole city of Kyoto, who would marry a woman that Mr. Qiu doesn't want?

As soon as the words came to his mouth, Zhou Mian's phone rang. He answered the phone and started to deal with work matters, which made Mrs. Zhou give up temporarily.

On Shi Yue's side, she got into Ye Xingxing's car and fell into deep thought. Mrs. Zhou's hostile attitude just now made her feel very uncomfortable.

She must have misunderstood something, but... Zhou Mian should explain it to her, right?

After all, Mrs. Zhou is an old customer of the Shi family. The Zhou family also helped a lot when the Shi family was in difficulty. She didn't want to offend them.

Ye Xingxing was driving in front, and when he saw her coming up, he lowered his eyes and fell silent, and called her: "Why did you become mute after going to Anshi?"

Shi Yue came back to his senses: "I was thinking about something just now..."

Ye Xingxing showed an interesting smile and said meaningfully: "You shouldn't be thinking about Lawyer Zhou just after you separated, right?"

The joke made Shi Yue frown even more, and her expression became serious: "Wake up, you should make less jokes like this in the future. It won't be good for others to misunderstand you."

Seeing how serious she was, Ye Xingxing had no choice but to stop talking nonsense: "I was wrong just now."

She glanced at Shi Yue secretly, thinking that Lawyer Zhou, a busy man, usually cared a lot about them, but it was a pity that Shi Yue was just a fool and didn't notice it at all.

In Ye Xingxing's opinion, a considerate and gentle man like Zhou Mian is more suitable for her than Master Qiu.

Thinking of Mr. Qiu, Ye Xingxing remembered another thing: "You know, people outside are saying that Gu Huaian has gone crazy."

"Crazy?" Shi Yue was surprised, then thought again, this was probably just a reason Qiu Xichen found to get her out of the crime.

Only crazy people can kill people without breaking the law, right?

She felt ridiculed and asked: "Then where is she now?"

Ye Xingxing also heard what others said. She also wanted to help her best friends to find out more, but those people remained silent: "It seems to be in some mansion, I didn't hear clearly."

She didn't know, but Shi Yue knew better than anyone else that the Qiu family had a property called Nanhe Mansion, which had a quiet environment and was a good place for recuperation. He actually placed Gu Huaian in that place.

Choosing to end things with Qiu Xichen was Shi Yue's choice, but it was not a compromise.

She never thought about letting Gu Huaian go. This woman was going to be punished for everything she had done.

When working with el Fanghe before, Shi Yue got to know some media reporters with her help and has always maintained a good relationship.

After learning about Gu Huaian's residence, Shi Yue immediately told them the news. She wanted to see if Gu Huaian was really crazy or just pretending to be stupid.

Back in Kyoto City, Shi Yue was not idle either. The commotion from the Shen family was getting louder and louder. The publicity on the Internet was massive, and the interview video with Shen Zexi was all paving the way for their cheongsam comeback.

This made people in the Shi family feel uneasy. Faced with the rise of the other party at any time, everyone was worried that the Shen family would take away their business.

After all, when the Shen family entered the fashion design industry, they had already suppressed many small companies until they went bankrupt.

Shi Yue acted calmly in front of the employees and was not affected by the Shen family's movements at all. He only asked everyone to seize the time and progress, do everything well, and ensure that every cheongsam coming out of Shi's is the best.

of.

After several consecutive meetings, Shi Yue was exhausted. After several department heads dispersed, only Meng Meng remained.

She leaned on the chair, rubbed her sore eyes, and tried to cheer herself up.

Meng Meng poured her a cup of coffee: "You have worked so hard on yourself, and you will be exhausted when the time comes. I won't take care of you anymore."

Shi Yue smiled silently, took the coffee and took a sip. The astringent taste instantly filled his mouth, quickly sweeping away the fatigue: "Tell me, when Shen's made such a big noise, when will they start releasing new designs?
