Lin Yilan was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat, but she could still look at Qiu Xiuzhen without changing her expression.

In fact, she could probably guess some of Qiu Xiuzhen's next story.

But despite this, she still felt very sad for Qiu Xiuzhen.

However, this sadness did not last long.

"Later, I realized that the reason why I got drunk that night was because Liu Houwei was instigating those people behind my back." Qiu Xiuzhen picked up the cork of the red wine and refilled the empty goblet. A glass of red wine.

She shook the glass in her hand, not caring about the red wine spilled on the table and herself, "I know I'm a bit pretty, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to find a nightclub job, but there are a lot of beautiful girls in the nightclub, why would he? Are you attracted to me?"

"This question, since I knew he was plotting against me, I couldn't figure it out."

She picked up the glass and drank most of it, "Do you know how I comforted myself at the time? I thought at the time that this man had put in so much thought and calculation to get me, so he still had me in his heart, right? Maybe he even loved me a little bit?"

Lin Yilan saw tears in Qiu Xiuzhen's right eye. It slipped down and smudged her eyeliner.

The spent eyeliner and eyeshadow are mushy.

Even so, Lin Yilan could not deny the fact that Qiu Xiuzhen was beautiful.

"I'm so naive. A sixty-year-old man falls in love with a girl who is less than twenty years old. There is so much romance behind it. It's just that men are greedy for freshness, beauty, and young girls." Qiu Xiuzhen finished her drink again. glass of red wine.

Then, she filled another glass for herself, "After I followed him for two years without any name, I suddenly received a letter from my family severing the relationship.

In the letter, my family scolded me for being shameless. For money and I wanted to defend myself with a man who could be my grandfather, but you know the situation in the mainland later,"

Qiu Xiuzhen sighed, "So, I gave up

at this time . Marry me and be his fifth wife."

After saying this, Lin Yilan didn't feel the happiness of being married in her eyes at all, and her eyes even became darker.

That look was very similar to the dry well Lin Yilan once saw in a house that had been abandoned for many years.

There was an unknown depth of water in the well, with dead leaves, rotten wood, and moss. It was so dark that the bottom could not be seen, and there was a rotten smell.

"At that time, I thought that marrying a rich man and being his wife would be better than having nothing at all. This is how I started the rest of my life."

The more Qiu Xiuzhen talked, the faster she drank.

Lin Yilan couldn't stop her. When she picked up the red wine to help her pour the wine, she poured a little less into the glass each time.

The story that followed included things that Lin Yilan guessed, but also parts that left her speechless.

After Qiu Xiuzhen and Liu Houwei got married, although Liu Houwei's first four wives did not like her, they still maintained their outward courtesy.

Six months after their marriage, Liu Houwei proposed that Qiu Xiuzhen would give him a child.

Qiu Xiuzhen agreed and started preparing for pregnancy.

I don’t know if rich people take good care of themselves, but they got pregnant three months after trying to conceive.

But in the third month, Qiu Xiuzhen suddenly suffered a miscarriage.

At that time, Qiu Xiuzhen's late husband, Liu Houwei, comforted her and told her that they would have another baby after she was born.

In the following years, Qiu Xiuzhen became pregnant three times in succession, but without exception, all of them were lost.

She realized something was wrong after she unexpectedly miscarried her second child.

There was obviously nothing wrong with her body when she went to the hospital for a check-up, so why could she not be able to keep the baby and even become prone to miscarriage?

"I will never forget that night." Qiu Xiuzhen put down her wine glass and squeezed the armrests of the sofa with both hands. The white knuckles showed how much strength she had used.

She looked up at the ceiling, "That night, I suffered from insomnia again because of my miscarriage. I couldn't lie down in bed, so I wanted to get out of bed and move around for a while.

As a result, I heard Liu Houwei and a strange man's voice outside the study door."

She knelt down. He put his legs on the sofa and hugged himself tightly.

"It was also this night that answered all my doubts. Liu Houwei asked someone to get me drunk because he had some physical problems at the time. Then the strange man in the study said he was some kind of master, so he asked Liu Houwei to find a certain The seventeen-year-old girl who was born in Shichen was still with the girl from CN.

This way, his physical problems could be suppressed for a while. He also said that girls at this time were particularly attractive to him. "

Hearing this, Lin Yilan sincerely felt that feudal superstition was killing people. ..Also

, it’s not like she has never seen so-called masters. She met many of them when she was designing houses for people in her previous life.

But there are few such crazy ones.

"After being with me, Liu Houwei felt that his health was getting better and better, and even the career bottleneck was over. The master therefore persuaded him to marry me and make me pregnant. As long as there are three of us together, A child of blood can ensure that the Liu family will be rich forever."

All the makeup on Qiu Xiuzhen's face had been wiped off, and her tears left black marks on her face.

"Liu Houwei was even worried that three would not be enough, so he had a fourth aborted child to make sure everything was safe."

Lin Yilan really didn't know what to say. She knew that many people in Hong Kong in this era pay attention to and believe in the so-called Feng Shui. Fortune telling, but...such disgusting things still exceeded her bottom line.

Speaking of Feng Shui, when she was in college in her previous life, she took a Feng Shui course.

The knowledge of Feng Shui needs to be mastered in the study and research of ancient architecture.

But she had only heard of killing people, but she didn't expect to actually encounter it.

Qiu Xiuzhen did not stop because of Lin Yilan's silence. She continued to talk, as if she wanted to express all the resentment and hatred she had accumulated over the years.

"Later, Liu Houwei really wanted me to have a child with him. Unfortunately, I felt sick when I thought about someone with my and his blood in this world.

In order not to harm the child, I secretly I've been taking birth control pills for a long time." At this point, she smiled proudly at Lin Yilan.

"Speaking of which, Miss Lin, I can tell you why I can guarantee that the Liu family will not dare to trouble you again.

Because the master Liu Houwei invited said that if you want the Liu family to be rich forever, you still need me After death, I will be buried in the Liu family's grave.

Everyone else in the Liu family knows this, so I told them that if I try to influence your plan again, I will return to the mainland before I die so that my bones will never enter the Liu family's grave. Ancestral graves." Qiu Xiuzhen directly pulled the cork from the red wine bottle and started blowing on the bottle.

Lin Yilan quickly stood up and took the bottle from her hand.

"Ms. Qiu, alcohol poisoning is very dangerous. Don't harm your body because of someone who doesn't deserve it."

Qiu Xiuzhen originally wanted to snatch the bottle from Lin Yilan's hand, but after hearing her words, she sat back on the sofa.

"Now you can guess the reason why Liu Houwei left me so much property. He lived to be 80 years old and felt that his life was worth it. Before he died, he felt sorry for me, so he gave me these things as compensation. And he also asked me After death, I must be buried in the Liu family.

"It's not up to me to give birth, and it's not up to me where my body goes after I die." She shook her head, as if she was a little drunk, and rested her head on the sofa.

The air was filled with the aroma of red wine and a hint of alcohol.

Lin Yilan has always felt that many wines have a fermented taste, and that taste is very similar to the smell of rotten fruits and grain.

So she, a vulgar person, has never been able to do things like wine tasting.

Even if she doesn't drink, she won't drink.

Seeing that Qiu Xiuzhen seemed to be asleep, she got up and walked quietly to the desk, picked up the blanket placed on the chair and gently covered Qiu Xiuzhen's body.

She had to admit that what Qiu Xiuzhen told her about the past inspired her to a great extent.

Lin Yilan recalled what Qiu Xiuzhen said just now and recorded the key events between Qiu Xiuzhen and her late husband.

The sun was setting in the west, and the residual light in the study happened to shine on the coffee table next to her.

Qiu Xiuzhen seemed to have woken up at this time, stretched out her hand and let out a big yawn.

"Ms. Lin, are you still here?" Her voice became hoarse.

Lin Yilan nodded and put her notebook and pen into her bag. "Ms. Qiu, since you're awake, I'll go back to the room first."

When she walked to the door of the study, another voice came from behind.

"Ms. Lin, for this design, the plan you gave me needs to have two different interpretations. What I really want to express cannot be omitted, but I can't let others see it casually. Can it be done?"

Qiu Xiuzhen walked next to her wrapped in a blanket and barefoot.

Lin Yilan turned to look at Qiu Xiuzhen, who was leaning against the wall, "I know what you mean, Ms. Qiu, don't worry."

Qiu Xiuzhen nodded with satisfaction, she stretched, "That's good, then I'll do it I’m looking forward to Miss Lin’s masterpiece.”

“By the way, if you need anything later, just contact the housekeeper and he will buy it for you.”

Lin Yilan nodded and walked straight out the door. .

Immediately afterwards, she returned to the study door and said, "Ms. Qiu, I wonder if you would mind asking the housekeeper to buy a computer and install it in your home. Now I use a computer to draw design drawings. Computer drawing is faster and calculations are faster. More accurate."

Qiu Xiuzhen waved her hand, "As long as the consumption is less than 30,000, you can just contact the housekeeper."

Unexpectedly, Ms. Qiu was so generous, Lin Yilan shrugged and walked down the stairs.

Returning to her room, she immediately made a list of what she needed.

In addition to computers, there are other tools such as colored pencils, watercolor paints, and brushes that are needed to draw renderings.

I can make lists quickly and buy things quickly.

When Lin Yilan had dinner, the housekeeper had the things delivered.

"Ms. Lin, we have hired someone to install the computer. Where would you like to put it?" the housekeeper pointed to the corrugated box at her feet.

She didn't want it in her room because of the radiation, among other shitty reasons.

She looked around for a while, then pointed to the guest room on the first floor.

"Hello, I don't know if it is convenient for this room to temporarily serve as my workspace during the next period of time?"

The housekeeper nodded, "Of course, Ms. Qiu gave us instructions before leaving to follow your arrangements. "

Then help me carry the computer to the workroom, okay?" Lin Yilan picked up the painting tools and walked to the workroom she prepared.

The housekeeper immediately directed the servant next to him to carry the computer into the room.

"Ms. Lin, do I need help installing the computer?"

Lin Yilan shook her head, "Just put it on the table. I'll go back to the room to get the floppy disk first, which contains the design software I want to use."

After taking the floppy disk After that, she returned to the room to install the computer and immediately started the software installation.

While waiting for the software to be installed, she took the pencils and drawing pads she brought with her and began to come up with ideas.

Just thinking about it, three days have passed.

For three days, Lin Yilan basically never came out of the workplace except for exercising, eating, going to the toilet and sleeping.

Qiu Xiuzhen thought at first that she was afraid that she would think she was not serious about her work, so she deliberately found time to make a subtle aside, saying that she didn't need to work so hard.

As a result, after observing for a period of time, I found that Lin Yilan was a complete workaholic.

This kind of day lasted until the fourth day, and Qiu Xiuzhen couldn't stand it anymore.

"Dong dong——"

"Please come in."

Lin Yilan put down the pencil in her hand, turned her chair and looked towards the door.

The door was opened and Qiu Xiuzhen appeared at the door.

"Designer Lin, there is an event this afternoon, will you go with me?"

Looking at Qiu Xiuzhen, who had been resurrected with full health, Lin Yilan was still a little unresponsive for a moment.

During the few days she stayed at Qiu Xiuzhen's house, the two of them rarely met.

When she got up to have breakfast, Qiu Xiuzhen was still sleeping. After she had lunch, Qiu Xiuzhen had already finished her brunch and went out for a beauty treatment. In the evening, she ate at home, and Qiu Xiuzhen went out to party with friends again.

Although they live under the same roof, the number of times they meet is even less than the number of times she meets the security guard at the door.

On days like this, Qiu Xiuzhen still looked very energetic, and she admired her very much.

"I won't go. I plan to continue sketching in the evening. I already have some ideas for the art museum."

Qiu Xiuzhen pushed the door completely open and walked to Lin Yilan.

"Ms. Lin, you're going to get moldy if you don't go out."

She put her hands on Lin Yilan's shoulders, "Tonight's event, many well-known people from Hong Kong City will come. If you go there, you might have the opportunity to pick up a few

There is also a friend I want to introduce to you. Speaking of which, you have met her before. "

Who is it?" Lin Yilan is the only one I know . Qiu Xiuzhen.

Qiu Xiuzhen didn't care so much, she would definitely do what she promised Du Jiaxin.

"Don't worry, you will definitely not regret it after participating in this event."

"Besides, don't you want to see the style of Hong Kong City Entertainment?" She leaned against the desk and made a pleading gesture.

As a typical person who prefers soft things over hard things, Lin Yilan could no longer refuse Qiu Xiuzhen.

Moreover, she also has her own selfish motives.

"Okay, but Ms. Qiu, you can't ask me out every day just because I went today!"

She still had work to do.

Qiu Xiuzhen pulled her arm excitedly, "Don't worry, you're working for me, how could I let you play every day."

"Just right, it's still early, I'll go shopping with you. Buy some clothes." Qiu Xiuzhen said as she walked Lin Yilan out of the workroom.

After receiving the notice from Qiu Xiuzhen, the housekeeper immediately arranged the things needed for the trip.

By the time Lin Yilan finished changing her clothes and was waiting for Qiu Xiuzhen in the living room, the driver had already driven the car to the door of her house.

Looking at such an efficient housekeeper, Lin Yilan had to give a thumbs up.

No wonder there are specialized schools for housekeepers abroad. Not everyone can do this housekeeper job.

Just as she was sitting on the sofa, looking at the flowers outside the window in a daze, a gust of wind brought a fragrant fragrance.

This scent... doesn't feel like a floral scent.

"Ms. Lin, we have known each other for such a long time. From now on, I will just call you Xiao Lin, okay? Of course, I can also call you by your English name."

Qiu Xiuzhen walked to Lin Yilan with a scent.

Lin Yilan rubbed her nose and resisted the desire to sneeze, "Okay, just call me Xiao Lin."

Forget about the English name for now.

It was only after her nose got used to the scent that she noticed Qiu Xiuzhen's dress.

Wearing a haze blue satin skirt, wearing a pearl necklace around her neck, and holding a white leather bag in her hand.

The bag looked very similar to a well-known foreign luxury brand, but she couldn't be sure.

After watching Qiu Xiuzhen dress in a mature and charming way for a long time, she suddenly adopted a fresh and beautiful style, and she was still a little uncomfortable with it.

The two of them left the house one after the other.

The driver was already standing in front of the car waiting.

After getting in the car, Qiu Xiuzhen lowered her head and glanced at the sneakers on Lin Yilan's feet.

"Xiao Lin, do you like wearing sneakers?"

Lin Yilan looked back at the scenery and nodded to Qiu Xiuzhen, "Yes. Because sneakers are convenient, leather shoes are always a little inconvenient for work."

"Up. I heard Kate say last time that you brought a pair of high heels with you when you went to Mr. Liang's architectural office. Is it true?" Qiu Xiuzhen put her hand on the armrest in the middle of the back seat, leaning her upper body forward and getting closer to Lin Yilan.

"Yes."

"So you only wear high heels when you are socializing?"

"Yes."

Lin Yilan looked at Qiu Xiuzhen blankly. Is she doing an investigation on herself?

Qiu Xiuzhen fell back on the chair, pulled up a strand of hair and put it on her chest.

"Xiao Lin, you are a person who is hot on the outside and cold on the inside. On the surface, you look very close, but in your heart you have your own ideas."

"You and the young people from the mainland and even Hong Kong cities that I have met are different. It's different."

Lin Yilan's mouth twitched, not understanding what she meant by her words.

"Ms. Qiu, I will take it as a compliment from you."

Qiu Xiuzhen narrowed her eyes with a smile and gave her an OK gesture.

Soon, the mall they were going to arrived.

As expected of a driver from a wealthy family, his driving skills are really impressive.

After driving all this way, I basically didn't feel any bumps, and I didn't even know when the car stopped or started.

After the driver and bodyguard came down and opened the car door for the two of them, the reception staff of the mall were already standing outside the car waiting.

Lin Yilan glanced at the bodyguard standing behind her and twisted her neck uncomfortably.

"Ms. Qiu, I haven't seen you for a long time. You look a lot more beautiful again." The person who looked like a manager led the people behind him to Qiu Xiuzhen, and then bowed deeply.

"Welcome, Ms. Qiu."

They greeted her in unison, almost scaring Lin Yilan's soul away.

She pursed her lips and endured the twitching of the corners of her lips.

The manager walked up to Qiu Xiuzhen, half-bent and said, "Ms. Qiu, which daughter is with you?"

Qiu Xiuzhen glanced at Lin Yilan and pulled her to her side, "This is my distinguished guest, too. My friend, just call her Miss Lin."

"By the way, she doesn't speak Hong Kong very well. Just use English when communicating with her."

"Okay, Ms. Qiu, Miss Lin."

Lin Yilan moved. Mouth, I want to say that I can speak Cantonese, but the current scene is not suitable for explanation.

Before she could react, Qiu Xiuzhen took her arm and pulled her into the mall.

As soon as she entered the mall, she automatically began to observe the interior design of the mall.

Although she didn't know the name of this mall, she could tell that it was a high-end mall, and the brands inside were all luxury brands that she knew or didn't recognize.

It's just that there seem to be a few people here.

If you look closely, everyone who visits the mall is followed by mall staff, people who appear to be bodyguards and assistants.

One person is shopping and ten people are accompanying him.

Every customer in the mall is followed by a long line of tails.

So this is where rich people go shopping?

Qiu Xiuzhen glanced at Lin Yilan, who had been wandering around since entering the mall, and sighed helplessly.

Are there so many beautiful clothes that can’t attract the attention of workaholics?

By chance, a model wearing a skirt in the window of a store not far away caught her eye.

"Eh eh eh eh?! Ms. Qiu."

Before Lin Yilan could react, she felt her wrists tighten, her eyes blurred, and she was pulled into a clothing store.

"Ms. Qiu, which dress do you like?"

The store clerk put his hands on his abdomen, walked to Qiu Xiuzhen and bowed.

Qiu Xiuzhen pointed to the skirt on the model, "Take this skirt off and give it to her to try on. Then show me all this year's new products in your store."

She said while pointing at Lin Yilan.

Lin Yilan looked at the pink and purple skirt, feeling like she had been struck by lightning, and her whole body became stiff.

I have never worn such a pink color.

Unfortunately, no one in the store noticed her.

Qiu Xiuzhen patted Lin Yilan's arm and said, "Go ahead, Xiao Lin. I've wanted to wear a skirt like this before, but I'm too old to be able to wear such a skirt like you little girls."

"This... Ms. Qiu, Mr. Qiu... why don't you give it up?" Lin Yilan looked at Qiu Xiuzhen in embarrassment, trying to pretend to be stupid and pass by. She pointed to another classic little black dress not far away.

"How about I try that one?"

Qiu Xiuzhen looked in the direction she was pointing and waved her hand, "Since you like it, the waiter will give her that skirt to try on."

Okay, The original dress has not been replaced, and there is one more thing to try on.

Lin Yilan wanted to say something else, but Qiu Xiuzhen gently pushed her towards the fitting room.

"Xiao Lin, hurry up, the waiters have prepared clothes for you, go and try them on."

Help...

What kind of event is tonight? As for Qiu Xiuzhen's reaction to such an exaggerated reaction.

She had never put so much thought into her clothes before attending the opening ceremonies of those projects.

When she came out of the fitting room, she realized where she had just gone.

"Waiter, where is Ms. Qiu?" Looking at the empty clothing store, Lin Yilan walked to the previous waiter with her skirt in hand.

The waiter bowed and raised his hand to make a sign of invitation.

"Ms. Lin, Ms. Qiu is waiting for you inside. Please follow me."

Lin Yilan glanced inside. She knew that this kind of luxury store, some stores in special locations, would divide the store into two parts. One part receives all guests, and the other part only receives distinguished guests.

She followed the waiter and turned around, bypassing the partition wall, and saw Qiu Xiuzhen sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed and flipping through the manual.

"Ms. Qiu, Miss Lin is here." After the waiter finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly and retreated to the wall.

Qiu Xiuzhen looked up and saw Lin Yilan in a pink and purple skirt, and her eyes lit up.

She threw the manual aside, stood up and walked next to Lin Yilan.

"Yes, she is so beautiful. She is indeed the person I like. Xiao Lin, your skin is already white, and wearing this skirt makes you even whiter."

As he said this, he circled around Lin Yilan.

"Very good, I want this skirt." She clapped and said with satisfaction to the manager serving her next to her.

Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment and wanted to raise her hand to refuse.

As soon as her hand was raised, it was held by Qiu Xiuzhen and pressed down.

"Where's that black skirt? Don't you try it on?"

"No, no, I just have this skirt." Lin Yilan quickly waved her hand to refuse.

She is extremely poor now, and she still wants to make some money through this project. Now that the project has not been completed, she has to spend so much money on buying skirts. It hurts her heart.

While trying on clothes, she quietly glanced at the labels on the clothes.

A skirt costs tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

It was enough for her to buy a house in the mainland.

Qiu Xiuzhen saw that she really didn't want it anymore, so she didn't force it. Instead, she pulled her to the sofa and sat down.

"Then let's see what we wear tonight."

"Isn't this skirt for tonight?" Lin Yilan was dumbfounded.

Qiu Xiuzhen shook her head and tugged on the skirt on her body, "This skirt is for you to wear on a daily basis. The banquet tonight is a bit formal. I have to buy you a dress, otherwise it will be rude to the organizer."

Seeing that she didn't speak, Qiu Xiuzhen looked back at the previous manager. "Okay, now show us the clothes."

The manager nodded, turned around and put the needle of the record player on the record, and a soft music played.

Meanwhile, some models slowly emerged from behind the curtain.

Lin Yilan's eyes widened slightly. Good guy, she has learned a lot.

Today was really an eye-opener for her, a country dog. After all, she had never experienced such a service before.

No wonder the rich woman wants to go shopping.

The models walked past the two of them one by one, accompanied by soothing and rhythmic music, and every step they took followed the rhythm.

There is still a faint fragrance in the air.

Along with the soothing rhythm, there is an inexplicable drowsy feeling.

Lin Yilan held her chin and tilted her head, trying to hide the look of her dozing off.

Although architectural design also requires understanding of art and fashion, her interest in clothing is almost zero.

For her, clothes only need to meet the requirements of being easy to wear, wearable, neat and clean.

As for the rest, she didn't have much thought.

Boredom can make people sleepy, and she has to use a lot of brain cells every day during this period, which makes her even more sleepy.

But while the model was working up there, she was sleeping down there, which was really rude.

Lin Yilan had no choice but to support her head and try to raise her eyelids so that she would not fall asleep completely.

Another woman sitting on the sofa, Qiu Xiuzhen, always had a faint smile on her face. It was hard to tell whether she liked it or not.

After the models finished the first round, it was time for all the models to come out together for the second round.

At this time, the manager also appeared.

She folded her hands on her abdomen, bent down slightly, and closed the distance to Qiu Xiuzhen.

"Ms. Qiu, do you have any favorite styles?"

Qiu Xiuzhen picked up the previous brochure, "This one, this one, and this one are all good. As for the catwalk style just now..."

She put down her hand She stood up and walked to the model wearing a fishtail skirt. "This is it."

"All the clothes just now are in her size." She said, pointing to the sofa where she was leaning. A person who is about to fall asleep on his back.

The manager nodded, "Don't worry, I will measure Miss Lin later."

"Okay, that fishtail skirt must be delivered to my house in three hours. She will wear it for the evening event." Qiu Xiuzhen continued Asked her request.

"Okay, Ms. Qiu."

Three hours meant there was not much time left for them.

When the manager walked to Lin Yilan and was thinking about how to wake her up, there was a sudden noise.

"Who is inside? Why can't I go in?"

"Miss Liu, I'm sorry that our VIPs are inside. If necessary, please wait outside."

"Hey, who is so powerful? Do you know who I am? My uncle is Liao Jingming! Don't get out of my way!"

"Miss Liu, please abide by our rules."

"Hey! Get out of here."

Although Lin Yilan's eyes were closed, her eyes were still rolling. She heard the sounds outside clearly, but she never woke up.

Until the last moment, she woke up directly.

"Ouch!"

She stood up suddenly, covering her yawning expression with her hand.

"What's going on?"

When she calmed down, she found that Qiu Xiuzhen's expression was a little ugly, and the manager next to her had a dark face, as ugly as a migrant worker who had his year-end bonus deducted.

Lin Yilan swallowed. She just couldn't help but fell asleep. There was no need to look so ugly...

"Manager, what's going on outside?"

The blood vessels in the manager's forehead were pulsing, and his head was big.

"Ms. Qiu, the person outside is Miss Liu, the niece of Mrs. Liao Jingming. I'm sorry for affecting your and Miss Lin's shopping experience today.

Later, I will lead the store staff to come to you and apologize."

Liao Jingming said these three words, completely Let Lin Yilan wake up.

She seemed to have heard someone say these three words in her sleep just now.

If Qiu Xiuzhen wasn't here, she would definitely go outside and take a look.

Qiu Xiuzhen waved her hand expressionlessly, "First ask someone to come over and measure Xiao Lin's size."

The manager wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, "Okay, I will personally serve Miss Lin."

Lin Yilan looked at her Wandering between the two of them, "What do you have to do with me?"

Qiu Xiuzhen pointed to the fishtail skirt hanging out, "Wear this to go to the banquet with me tonight."

Lin Yilan turned her head to look at the skirt, and then looked at it in stunned silence. By Qiu Xiuzhen.

"Ms. Qiu, you... spent a lot of money."

"It doesn't matter. There is someone really important to introduce to you tonight, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to come over." Qiu Xiuzhen stepped forward and smiled softly. , and patted her shoulder. "And tonight I am going to announce the official launch of the art museum project and introduce you to the media, so you must dress nicer.

After all, I rely on you to earn my face at night."

Lin Yilan took a long breath, she Lowering her voice, "Ms. Qiu, do you plan to adopt my publicity plan?"

Qiu Xiuzhen nodded, said nothing, and showed a big smile.

"Okay, you guys take the measurements, and I'll go take care of things outside. It's so noisy, it makes my head hurt."

She tilted her head and gently pressed her temples, and walked out.

After watching Qiu Xiuzhen leave, Lin Yilan stared blankly at the manager holding a soft ruler.

"Ms. Lin, raise your hands."

Because they did not choose customized clothing, it only took more than ten minutes to measure the required data.

The manager put the tape ruler on his shoulder and wrote down Lin Yilan's measurements in a notebook with a pen.

"Ms. Lin has a very good figure. She seems to exercise regularly." She also complimented her a few times.

Lin Yilan pretended to smile shyly and said, "You are overly complimentary."

When she walked from the back to the front, she realized that several people had gathered in the front of the store.

Qiu Xiuzhen was facing away from her, and a young girl was standing opposite Qiu Xiuzhen.

Lin Yilan moved two small steps to the right and saw the girl's face clearly.

She walked forward and put her hand on Qiu Xiuzhen's shoulder, "What happened?"

Qiu Xiuzhen remembered what Lin Yilan had asked her for help before. She rolled her eyes and folded her hands across her chest, "It's nothing. Size Is it done?"

Lin Yilan nodded and looked at Miss Liu from the corner of her eye, "It's done."

"Miss Liu, let alone the Liao family, you can't drive me out of here, let alone you. How dare a niece of the eldest daughter of the Liao family act arrogantly in front of me?" Qiu Xiuzhen walked a few steps towards Miss Liu with a half-smile.

She was very curious about what relationship Lin Yilan had with the Liao family.

Take this opportunity to test it out.

When Qiu Xiuzhen and Lin Yilan communicate, they usually use Mandarin. Occasionally Qiu Xiuzhen will insert a few words in English, but never Cantonese.

Liu Shuyue immediately became excited when she heard the two of them speaking Mandarin.

"Ms. Qiu, don't be too arrogant. Are you bringing your relatives from the mainland to Hong Kong? I don't know if the Liu family will allow you to use their money to support an outsider.

What's more, you were not You used money to support a man, and the Liu family found out. In order to avoid them, you went to the mainland.

Let’s see what they will do with you this time!”

She spoke in Hong Kong quickly, and Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment. Some still didn't react.

But she still understood.

However, she did not show it, but continued to stare at Miss Liu and observe.

Qiu Xiuzhen sneered, she didn't care whether she was observing or not.

He counterattacked directly with a cold face.

"Miss Liu, I can spend my money however I want! Just tell the Liu family that my late husband did not allow me to look for him again before he passed away. If you don't believe me, ask them."

"I would like to know, if If the other two families of the Liao family know that you are squandering the Liao family's money here today, what will they do to you?"

Looking at Liu Shuyue's nervous expression, she laughed, "And I heard that the Liao family has been there recently. It's not very peaceful. They are looking for a child in the mainland. I heard that the original wife was pregnant with a boy. I don't know what will happen to your aunt when the original wife of the Liao family comes back!"

Lin Yilan blinked ! The eyes almost maintain their previous expression.

Qiu Xiuzhen, on the other hand, focused half of her attention on Lin Yilan's reaction.

Only Liu Shuyue didn't understand anything and was still shaking his head and boasting.

"Qiu Xiuzhen, what do you have to be proud of as a widow abandoned by the Liu family? My uncle's family will soon surpass the Liu family. You won't be arrogant for long. You rely on the Liu family to survive in Hong Kong City!" "

As for the dead woman, what's there to say?"

Very good, let's keep arguing.

Lin Yilan now wants the two of them to fight each other so that she can know more about the Liao family.

Qiu Xiuzhen looked Liu Shuyue up and down, as if looking at a clown.

"Little sister, keep talking nonsense here. Sister, I don't have time to play with you anymore."

"Stop."

"You answer me a question before you can leave. How did you know that the woman before my uncle was pregnant with a boy? "

Liu Shuyue didn't let Qiu Xiuzhen go.

She stood in front of Qiu Xiuzhen and blocked Qiu Xiuzhen's way.

"Only the Liao family knows about this matter. How did you know about it?"

Lin Yilan was also a little curious, but she held it back.

Qiu Xiuzhen became impatient, so she called the bodyguard who was following outside.

"Frank, please get this Miss Liu out of the way."

"You dare? My uncle won't let you go." Liu Shuyue waved her arms at the approaching bodyguard.

Qiu Xiuzhen clicked her tongue and complained in a low voice.

"Sure enough, I haven't shown off my power for too long. Now everyone wants to step on me. They really think I'm easy to bully."

After saying this, she walked to Lin Yilan and said, "Xiao Lin, aren't you scared?"

Lin Yilan shook his head. Shaking her head, "It's okay, it's you, are you okay?"

"How could a bluffing person like Liu Shuyue scare me?"

Qiu Xiuzhen thought of something and showed a contemptuous smile, "And she hasn't... Qualifications. She is just a member of the Liao family, not to mention she is only a relative related to the eldest brother of the Liao family.

Speaking of which, the Liao family has gotten rich through some shit in the past few years, so it has become more and more prosperous. The more arrogant they become, the sooner or later people like them will fall."

Lin Yilan nodded silently and wrote down the latest news in a small notebook in her heart.

This trip to the door was not in vain.

Now the Liao family seems to think that her mother and second sister have passed away.

It seems that they will not go to the mainland to inquire about information during this period.

However, if she remembered correctly, the Liao family in Hong Kong City should not know the gender of the fourth brother.

Before the fourth brother was born, they were already running to Hong Kong City one after another.

So who gave them the news?

"Xiao Lin, what are you thinking about? After you came out of the store, I saw you were in a trance. What's wrong?" Qiu Xiuzhen glanced at Lin Yilan suspiciously.

Lin Yilan thought about her future plans and made a somewhat risky decision.

She plans to show that she understands Hong Kong in front of Qiu Xiuzhen in the near future.

Otherwise, she would be in trouble if Qiu Xiuzhen found out that she was lying. Qiu Xiuzhen's character should not tolerate deception.

She yawned and rubbed her eyes again, "Maybe she didn't wake up, so her mind was confused."

Qiu Xiuzhen excitedly pulled her into a club, "We just happen to be doing beauty treatments now, you can go there Have a good rest while doing your beauty treatment."

"Welcome." The receptionist at the beauty club bent down and greeted the two of them.

Lin Yilan silently put down her hand halfway through her yawn.

cosmetic?

What kind of big shot are we going to meet tonight? Since attending banquet events in my life, my greatest enthusiasm has been spent here.

No wonder Qiu Xiuzhen is so busy every day.

While Lin Yilan was mumbling in her heart, Qiu Xiuzhen held the beautician beside her and started to talk.

Immediately afterwards, before Lin Yilan could react, she was pinned down on the chair by the beautician.

"Ms. Lin, let me check your skin condition."
