Chapter 23 Mr. Zhou
Mrs. Zhou pondered deeply and quickly thought of the answer: "Are you the young lady of the Qiu family?"
By chance, Zhou Mian found the document he wanted upstairs. When he heard these words, his eyes hidden behind the gold frame could not help but fall on Shi Yue.
Is she Qiu Xichen’s wife?
Shi Yue didn't notice the eyes sizing him up and continued chatting with Mrs. Zhou.
"Mrs. Zhou should have been here at the Qiu family's last dinner, right," Shi Yue asked with a smile.
Although she was not sure about the list of the last dinner party, Shi Yue still had some impressions of the guests.
Mrs. Zhou admired the girl in front of her even more, and asked in surprise: "You married into the Qiu family, and they let you show up to manage the company?"
Shi Yue took out a soft ruler to measure her size, and responded with a smile: "My husband and the old man respect my ideas very much, and I have their permission to work."
Zhou Mian walked to the living room with the documents at this moment, took the opportunity to interject and joked: "Mom, if you want to go out to work, my father and I will support you."
Mrs. Zhou rolled her eyes at him: "Are you kidding? If you want to go back to the company, give me a gift for Mrs. Qiu and the others."
Shi Yue had just taken all the measurements and was sorting things out with Pan Xiaoya. Hearing this, he quickly refused, "No need to trouble Mr. Zhou, we can just take a taxi later."
Zhou Mian turned the car key in his hand: "You two are welcome, it's very hard to wait for the car outside on such a hot day, I just happened to be on my way back to the company."
He was so insistent. If Shi Yue refused again, it would be a loss of face.
Zhou Mian is a gentle and funny person. He only said a few words and made Pan Xiaoya very happy.
He looked through the rearview mirror again and saw Shi Yue in the back seat, whose face was reddish due to the weather, with long hair hanging down her shoulders. She was very elegant. Zhou Mian said: "Mrs. Qiu, how is your husband's health recently? Last time at the Qiu family dinner,
I was busy and couldn't visit him, I'm sorry."
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhou. He is in good health."
Shi Yue responded politely. A few days ago, Qiu Xichen had told her that he could not tell anyone about his physical condition. If anyone asked, she would always tell the same story.
It didn't take long for him to arrive at the company. Shi Yue thanked him again and again: "I'm sorry for bothering Mr. Zhou today."
Zhou Mian put his hands on the steering wheel and smiled helplessly: "You'd better go in quickly, it's hot outside."
After saying goodbye to him, on the way back to the company, Pan Xiaoya couldn't help but get excited: "Mr. Shi, this Mr. Zhou is such a gentleman and so handsome. Do you think he is married?"
Seeing her expression, Shi Yue deliberately joked: "It looks like she's not married. If you have any ideas, you can pursue her boldly."
Pan Xiaoya's face turned even redder, but she still had self-awareness and waved her hands to refuse: "Mr. Zhou probably doesn't like me. Not to mention his wealthy family, I heard that he is also a lawyer."
After saying that, she sighed and said: "He is such an outstanding talent, but he still hasn't found a partner yet. I suddenly feel relieved."
Shi Yue patted her shoulder: "How old are you now? You can't be anxious about finding a partner."
Pan Xiaoya was taken aback for a moment and without thinking much, she started gossiping about Shi Yue's love life: "Mr. Shi, how did you and Mr. Qiu meet?"
Shi Yue was slightly stunned. How should she answer this question?
In this kind of utilitarian marriage, she only met her husband after she got married, let alone how she met him.
Pan Xiaoya also realized that she had said something wrong and immediately apologized: "I just talked nonsense, Mr. Shi, please don't take it to heart."
Shi Yue smiled softly: "Remember to summarize today's data and send it to me later."
When they returned to the company, most of the people in the design team still didn't reply. Shi Yue was not angry. She arranged tasks for the few people who came back, and asked Pan Xiaoya to post the recruitment information for designers online. She then took the
The data goes to the operation room to make clothes.
It had been a long time since Shi Yue had picked up the scissors, and she didn't feel that she was unfamiliar with it. Instead, she felt like she hadn't done it for a long time.
On that day, Chen Wei and others still did not show up at the company, and Shi Qian was also missing.
Shi Yue sent dismissal notices directly to their mailboxes. She was absent from work without reason and did not ask for leave. She had every reason to fire these people.
On the way back, Shi Yue received an angry call from Shi Qian who came to question: "Shi Yue! Why do you fire them?"
Shi Yue chuckled lightly: "You take them to absenteeism. Of course it's okay as the boss's daughter, but they have to be laid off. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can appeal."
Shi Qian was so angry that she almost jumped: "Do you really think that the company belongs to you? I can't resign even if I can't!"
Shi Yue listened to her sharp scream and hung up the phone directly.
Shi Yue was about to close his eyes and rest for a while when he suddenly received an email, which was the notification of the last cutting-edge design award.
Her work passed the preliminary round!
Shi Yue took a look at all the works that passed the preliminary round. This competition was not limited to clothing styles, but she was the only one to participate in the competition in the cheongsam style, which was very conspicuous among the other works.
Originally, I just had the mentality of giving it a try, but I didn't expect to pass the primary election. Shi Yue was very happy.
Meng Meng directly sent the design draft of the Crested Ibis Liuyu: "Why didn't you tell me when you went to participate in this competition? I saw the pen name and I knew it was you."
She also used Fengyue's name when she participated in the competition, so it's not surprising that Meng Meng recognized her.
"I've just passed the preliminary round now, and I don't know what the result will be yet. I originally planned to tell you after I win."
Shi Yue sent a cute and apologetic expression, and told Meng Meng her recent plans: "Meng Meng, I may not be able to continue to provide you with manuscripts in the future."
Meng Meng didn't say anything: "It's okay, just focus on your own business. The design drawings you provided me before are enough for me to eat and drink for the rest of my life."
This is indeed true. Several styles that Shi Yue designed for her store have all become popular items. Meng Meng has placed several orders with manufacturers.
Many colleagues were jealous when they saw it, and wanted to make the same style, but the style was easy to copy, but the pattern was difficult to copy. In the end, it increased the exposure of Meng Xia's store.
I chatted with Meng Meng for a few words on the way. When I returned to my old house, it was almost dark.
Shi Yue saw Gu Huaian's figure at the door.
She motioned to the driver to stop: "Miss Gu, why are you standing here so late?"
Gu Huaian looked at her pleadingly: "Miss Shi, can you please help me? I want to visit Xichen."
Shi Yue looked at the brightly lit villa. She didn't know who asked her to stand here. She said apologetically: "Miss Gu, I'm sorry, I can't help you."
