Xia Yubing's eyes widened, and she was completely stunned for a moment.
Taking advantage of the situation, Ah Yi had someone take her away, and the noisy scene immediately returned to calm.
The onlookers turned their surprised gazes to Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran, then lowered their heads and quickly slipped away as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Mianmian's heart trembled. The image of Lin Yuqing protecting her with all her might was etched in her mind. She felt like crying, but she tried her best to hold back. When she met Lin Yuqing's gaze, she smiled gently at her.
"Mianmian, Ranran." Lin Yuqing looked at the two girls gently and took out a manuscript from her bag.
"I came here today specifically to bring this to you."
When Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran opened it, they found it was one of Mr. Sam's works, with every line drawn by his own hand!
"Actually... I wanted to quietly hand it over to you and then leave. But I didn't expect to run into this group of people..." Lin Yuqing shook her head, "Ashan has told me many times not to interfere with your work, but I still couldn't help myself today..."
"From now on, your roles in the company will be different." Lin Yuqing held their hands. "But that's good. Do whatever you want! The Lu family will always be your support!"
The two girls chuckled softly and hugged Lin Yuqing together.
Lin Yuqing patted their backs and then touched their little heads.
She smiled. In truth, fate had been kind to her, giving her two daughters in one fell swoop.
"Alright, let's go upstairs and see your new office!" Lin Yuqing turned her gaze to Su Aiqian, hesitated for a moment, and then softly asked, "I... can I invite you for a cup of tea?"
*
You Huan was wearing a baseball cap and oversized sunglasses, dressed in the most ordinary T-shirt and jeans, and looked no different from any other passerby from a distance.
She and her assistant walked calmly into the Lu's Excellence Building and stood in a corner of the lobby.
"Sister Huan, that intern is in the film studio project team. I heard she's very hardworking and has a great personality. By the way, she studied architectural design, published several papers, and frequently receives scholarships..."
"A name?" You Huan looked at the back of the photo. "Is this it... Jiang Mianmian?"
The assistant nodded earnestly.
"How did you find this information? Is it reliable?"
"It's...it was found after asking a lot of people to investigate!"
You Huan frowned. "You haven't been scammed, have you?"
"Sister Huan," the assistant blinked innocently, "I absolutely don't think anyone would lie to me about something like this!"
However, the poor girl was completely unaware that she was making a huge, earth-shattering blunder, and kept patting her chest and assuring You Huan:
"Sister Huan, although investigating people isn't my forte, I've done my best to help you! What you do next is up to you!"
You Huan bit her lip lightly, feeling as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart.
In the photo, Jiang Mianmian has skin as smooth as jade and bright, beautiful eyes, like a clean crystal.
I imagine any man would be unable to resist being moved by that first love face.
But……
As You Huan was feeling downcast, her assistant suddenly shoved her, "Sister Huan, look over there!"
You Huan's heart skipped a beat.
Following the direction the assistant was pointing, a girl with exceptional beauty and poise was gracefully descending the stairs. You Huan's hands trembled as she held the photo, checking it repeatedly to confirm that the girl was indeed Jiang Mianmian from the picture!
Just then, Wen Jie came in through the front door, carrying two cups of milk tea, and waved to Jiang Mianmian warmly.
You Huan crumpled the photo in her hand!
She stared intently at the two of them, a strange emotion churning within her.
She saw Wen Jie hand the milk tea to Jiang Mianmian and saw him smile at her.
That beautiful smile belonged only to Jiang Mianmian at that moment...
However, Jiang Mianmian is even more beautiful than in the photos.
She was so beautiful that even she, someone who's been in the entertainment industry for a long time and is used to seeing beautiful women, thought Jiang Mianmian's beauty was unconventional.
A powerful sense of loss crashed down on You Huan like a boulder.
She stood there in a daze, and it took several calls from her assistant before she came to her senses.
"Sister Huan, what's wrong?"
She didn't answer, but glanced in that direction again and muttered to herself, "If I were a man, I would choose her without hesitation."
"What...does this mean?"
"It's nothing," You Huan said, turning to her assistant. "She is quite pretty."
"oh."
"He even bought her milk tea... that milk tea must have been really sweet. The way the two of them stood together... was also very sweet."
You Huan felt sad, yet incredibly envious.
Unrequited love is a silent play; she performs passionately on stage, but those in the audience can't hear a thing.
However, she didn't hear what Wen Jie and Jiang Mianmian were saying at that moment—
"This taro boba drink was made for you by Junyu, and this mango pomelo sago drink was made for Lu Ran by Junyang! The two young masters of the Huo family have recently become obsessed with making milk tea, as well as various desserts and snacks, which will be launched one by one in the future. Please look forward to it, ladies!"
"I'm so sorry, Attorney Wen, you're so busy and I had to make this trip for you! By the way, why didn't they come to deliver it?"
“Because…” Wen Jie smiled, “Mrs. Huo said that the two of them have to stay home and clean the kitchen!”
Jiang Mianmian smiled very happily, accepted the milk tea, thanked him again, and waved goodbye to Wen Jie.
"Sister Huan, Sister Huan!" the assistant whispered, "Attorney Wen has already left, shall we... go too?"
"Oh, okay."
