1228 The Reference Target Appeared
Song Shiyu could see the disgust and anger in Xia Yunlou’s expression. It was as if she thought that giving birth to this daughter was the most unlucky thing to have happened in her life. She clearly did not treat Young Madam as her biological daughter, but she asked Young Madam to treat her as her biological mother. Was this fair?
He frowned. The bodyguards at the side instantly understood and asked Xia Yunlou to leave.
Seeing this, Xia Yunlou said helplessly, “Since she’s unwilling to see me, please help me pass a message to Xi Xi. The Luo family is about to collaborate with the Xia family to produce the porcelain designs left behind by my sister, Xia Yunqiu.
“The Xia family provided the designs, and the Luo family is in charge of the production. Xi Xi should be in charge of the docking, but my father wants Mengyan to do it. No matter what, Xi Xi is my daughter. I’m still on her side, so I specially came to tell her that if she doesn’t want to let go of this good opportunity, she should quickly return to the Xia family.”
Song Shiyu: “??”
He was stunned. Before he could ask, Xia Yunlou stood up and left.
What was going on? Had Xia Yunlou found her conscience? However, she had just criticized Young Madam, and her eyes were filled with disgust. How did she transform into a mother who was considerate of her daughter? Her acting skills were far inferior to Young Madam’s.
Song Shiyu returned to the office and told Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi what Xia Yunlou had said.
The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled up. If these two families worked together, their reputation would rise. Hence, under normal circumstances, the heirs of the families would be in charge.
According to their identities, the most suitable person was Qiao Xi. It was just that everyone in the Xia family doted on Xia Mengyan. As Qiao Xi’s biological mother, it was normal for Xia Yunlou to come and remind her daughter. However, according to Xia Yunlou’s past actions, her words today were strange.
Gu Zheng asked softly, “Xi Xi, do you think Xia Yunlou is up to something?”
Qiao Xi’s eyes lit up, and she shook her head with a smile.
Gu Zheng’s gaze was deep as he turned to look at her. “What do you think, then?”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled into a cold smile. “Do you still remember that I guessed that Xia Yunlou has been revealing her true nature more and more over the years? It’s possible that it’s because the real Xia Yunlou is no longer around that she’s exposing herself like this. After all, she has no reference to follow. She’s unable to interact with Xia Yunlou’s mother and brother and doesn’t have the slightest emotion for me, her daughter.
“But Song Shiyu thinks that Xia Yunlou looks like she cares about me very much. What could be the reason for it?” Qiao Xi’s expression was gloomy, scaring Song Shiyu so much that his body trembled. “It’s probably because her reference has appeared again. She knows how to care about her daughter.”
Gu Zheng hissed. “Xi Xi, you’re really getting smarter and smarter. I’m ashamed of my inferiority.”
Song Shiyu’s pupils trembled when he heard that. It took him a long time to understand what she meant. In that case, the woman who had just appeared in front of him was not the real Xia Yunlou.
Qiao Xi turned around and left. Song Shiyu said with lingering fear, “President, other girls have warm and sunny smiles, but why is Young Madam so scary when she smiles?”
Gu Zheng looked up and glanced at him coldly. Song Shiyu understood instantly. “You don’t have to say anything. I know that Young Madam will always be the cutest and most beautiful woman in your heart.”
Gu Zheng: “…”
His eyes suddenly turned sharp. “Song Shiyu, are you itching for a beating?”
Song Shiyu’s heart trembled. He took a few steps back and said in a panic, “President, calm down! Don’t hit me! Don’t send me to the mountains either. I still have something to say!”
Gu Zheng’s eyes regained their calm.
Song Shiyu lowered his voice and said, “President, don’t you think that Young Madam has been estranged from you recently? She has a plan, but why isn’t she telling you about it? This isn’t a good sign!”
Song Shiyu’s words instantly piqued Gu Zheng’s interest. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “What do you think I should do?”
“It’s simple! First of all, you have to show more concern for Young Madam and coax her with sweet words. If she wants to eat, pass her the chopsticks. If she wants to sleep, cover her with the blanket. If she wants to hit someone, bring her a rod. Remember not to let her suffer. You have to be gentle and become a completely warm man!” Song Shiyu said excitedly.
Song Shijing: “…”
Although Song Shiyu usually did not do any proper work, what he said made sense. A man had to be meticulous, gentle, and attentive to women.
After Qiao Xi left, she still had a lot on her mind. She did not know where the real Xia Yunlou was. If she was still alive, why did she not acknowledge the Yin family? Why did she not stand forward and expose the fake Xia Yunlou?
What difficulties did she have? Or was it because she could not appear?
