Chapter 6: She is a real woman when facing difficulties
"Ming Zhao, get off."
The sound, without any warmth, was like a blade that had been in the freezer for a long time, and Ming Zhao was like a child who accidentally cut his hand with it.
All along, no matter what she did wrong, Zhou Tingyun had never been so cruel to her.
But now, she even felt that what he really wanted to say was——
"Get out of here."
Ming Zhao, who was almost asleep on the massage bed, suddenly woke up, pursed his lips and rubbed his ears.
Spoiled, willful, and pretentious.
This is what most people think of her.
Ming Zhao fell into self-doubt for the first time, but it only lasted for three seconds.
It was impossible for the eldest daughter to reflect on herself. She had clearly not changed from the beginning to the end, it was Zhou Tingyun who had changed. Perhaps he had a more obedient and sensible family, so he could no longer tolerate himself.
"So, because of this, you went out and started dating a random guy, and when your brother found out, he asked you to break up with him, but you had a huge fight with him and left the country out of spite?"
Lin Zhiwei, who was lying on the massage bed next to him, was shocked, but felt it made sense when applied to Ming Zhao.
I was so exhausted after a week of work that I moved my spa activity, which was supposed to be on Sunday, to Saturday. I didn't expect to hear such gossip.
Ming Zhao refused to be attacked for his aesthetic taste and raised his voice, "Where is my hair yellow?"
Lin Zhiwei was too lazy to pay attention to her. For a sister-con, all men in the world are blonde.
The silence didn't last long before Ming Zhao couldn't help but speak again.
"What do you mean by him insisting on going to the Zhou family? Who is there?"
Lin Zhiwei was speechless, "...Can you watch less TV dramas?"
Ming Zhao snorted and turned his head.
In the nursing room, crystal incense brings a subtle soothing effect, and soft music flows quietly in the room.
The essential oil is spread slowly with just the right amount of force.
Inexplicably, an idea suddenly popped up in Lin Zhiwei's mind.
"Maybe... do you know orthopedics?"
"I know." Ming Zhao yawned, squinted his eyes and nodded his chin.
Lin Zhiwei raised an eyebrow in surprise, "You actually knew that?"
"That's what Aire said."
Aire, her classmate from abroad, was crying and cursing Zhou Tingyun at a party. Aire listened thoughtfully.
Then I enthusiastically told her a story about German orthopedics.
Ming Zhao:?
She yelled, "Are you crazy? Aire, stop insulting my brother!"
Hearing this, Lin Zhiwei's lips twitched, and she knew that she was thinking too much.

After the spa process, Ming Zhao was about to take Lin Zhiwei shopping when he suddenly heard a familiar female voice behind him.
"I'm sure this place has great results. You'll definitely be the most stunning after your hairdo tomorrow."
Isn’t this Shang Man, the second daughter of Hengtai Bank? Mingzhao pricked up his ears.
"Thank you, Manman," another unfamiliar voice said shyly, "To say she's more beautiful than me is an exaggeration. Miss Ming is much prettier than me."
Shang Man snorted disdainfully, "What's the point of being prettier than you? She doesn't dare to come."
Zhou Siyu: “…”
She smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
Shang Man, however, became increasingly angry as she spoke, "She's beautiful, but her taste is so poor that she actually chooses a Phoenix man like Gu He as her boyfriend."
"No wonder he's hiding abroad, he's such a disgrace to us rich second-generations!"
Ming Zhao:? ? ?
Who doesn't dare? She said who doesn't dare? She said who has poor vision? Who hid?!
Ming Zhao was about to turn around and have a good argument with Lin Zhiwei, but was held down by him.
"Are you stupid?" Lin Zhiwei cursed in a low voice.
"Just let them think you're not going and give them a surprise tomorrow."
Ming Zhao felt wronged and twisted Lin Zhiwei's waist. "Just say what you want to say. Why are you scolding me?"
"Who made you stupid?"
"Who's stupid?! She was a real woman when faced with a situation, unlike you, who are full of bad intentions!"
Lin Zhiwei grabbed her wrist and pulled her out, "Stop talking nonsense."
"...Can you be a little more civilized?" Ming Zhao staggered slightly.
"Since you gave me the bag, I'll reluctantly meet your request."
Ming Zhao denied it and said stubbornly, "I only put it in your house because I bought too much."
"Yes, yes, yes, you bought too much. Thank you for the gift from nature." Lin Zhiwei nodded perfunctorily and forcibly dragged the real woman away with the clamps.

Inside the vlc room, rows of fitting models walked by.
In fact, most of Ming Zhao's clothes are custom-made and delivered to her door, but she prefers to have someone accompany her shopping, so she has a series of purchases in major luxury brand stores in North City.
"You just returned to China, so you might not know much. The person who was with Shang Man just now was Zhou Siyu." Lin Zhiwei took a sip of tea to dilute the greasy taste of the dessert.
"Ostensibly, tomorrow is Elder Zhou's birthday party, but in reality, it's mainly to find a marriage partner for her."
"Ah," Ming Zhao propped up his chin, feeling distressed when he heard this. "Well, since I'm so pretty, wouldn't it be easy for me to steal the limelight if I go?"
Resisting the urge to roll her eyes in public, she added, "It's also about finding a suitable marriage partner for your brother."
Another marriage?
His fingertips paused slightly, and his brows unconsciously frowned.
Oh, no wonder she didn't have to go.
Ming Zhao was in a bad mood, and her pretty face unconsciously showed a bit of coldness.
Having been invited to attend the 2024/25 Fall/Winter Haute Couture show abroad, she was bored and randomly picked out a few sets that she had previously taken a fancy to.
Fiona, who was standing next to her, observed the young lady's expression and didn't know why she was suddenly angry. After she finished choosing the clothes, she hurriedly showed her several bags specially reserved for her. They were new colors of diamond-buckled crocodile Birkin.
It was a beautiful haze blue, and the smile on the young lady’s face returned.
Fiona's slightly tense spirit relaxed.
But the next second, I suddenly received a notification from my manager on the headset.
"Fiona, the diamond buckle T0 colorway has been reserved. You..."
?
What did he say? What did he say?
For a moment, Fiona's head was buzzing and she could no longer hear the manager's voice in the headset.
The package has been pre-booked, which usually means that a more prestigious customer has cut in line.
So how should she explain this to Ming Zhao now?
Fiona bit her lower lip, hurried to the side, and lowered her voice anxiously, "Manager Chen, Miss Ming is..."
That side has been cut off directly.
She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her back and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Fiona?"
Ming Zhao tilted his head curiously, "What's wrong?"
Fiona's face stiffened slightly.
You can say this kind of perfunctory words to anyone, but not to Ming Zhao.
But there was no other way, so he had to bite the bullet and go forward and apologize.
"I'm so sorry, Miss Ming. This model has already been pre-ordered. It was my personal mistake. I'm truly sorry."
The air was quiet for a moment.
Lin Zhiwei was stunned at first, then couldn't help laughing out loud.
She watched the fun and made fun of it.
"Miss, how come your reputation is no longer what it used to be? There are still people who dare to snatch things from you."
Everyone knew that "being booked in advance" was just an excuse. When gods fight, mortals suffer. All the store clerks in the venue lowered their heads, looking embarrassed.
Ming Zhao was furious, but she naturally wouldn't embarrass Fiona. She just smiled sweetly and said, "Call your manager over."
Fiona quickly responded.
Soon, the manager appeared hurriedly with an unhappy look on his face.
I don't understand why Fiona can't do such a small thing. Just as I was about to scold her, I saw Ming Zhao leaning lazily on the sofa.
My heart suddenly tightened.
He was newly transferred from other places in the headquarters this year, and at first he did not take Miss Ming mentioned by Fiona seriously.
But salespeople are very smart and are best at judging people by their appearance.
First of all, the clothes.
Bright but not vulgar colors require financial support, and are backed by top-notch fabrics and tailoring designs, which are simply difficult for ordinary people to control.
What's more, her temperament is so dazzling that her superior appearance is no longer the focus. The pampered and noble aura revealed in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows is natural.
Manager Chen's heart was pounding.
Ming Zhao smiled when he saw someone coming. "You mean, make a reservation in advance?"
"I'm so sorry, this..."
"Manager Chen," Ming Zhao interrupted him directly, his eyes casually falling on the nameplate on his chest, "right?"
"Please tell me," she smiled, "who made the reservation with you in advance?"
The cold voice was obviously angry. Manager Chen's face froze slightly, and he was in a dilemma.
Naturally, no one made a reservation.
But the problem is that this model is also liked by Miss Zhou in the VLC room on the other floor.
We can't afford to offend either side, but we can't afford to offend the Zhou family even more.
He was in a dilemma at the moment and had to think of a gentler way to make the young lady give up.
So he said.
"It was ordered by Young Master Zhou of the Zhou family as a gift for Miss Zhou."
…
Manager Chen’s idea is actually very simple. When the status and seniority are likely to be the same, then move out the one with a higher seniority.
Little did she know that Lin Zhiwei next to her was almost laughing to death, and the eldest lady's face had become very ugly.
