“Alright, let’s not talk about these useless things. Anyway, Shen Jingmo hasn’t returned to the country yet. The Fu family will host a cocktail party the night after tomorrow. Do you want to go with me? You will just be bored if you stay at home. Why don’t you come with me to relax?”

Was it going to be held the day after tomorrow? But that should be the day when Shen Jingmo would return home…

Mu Qingyu didn’t agree immediately. She only said, “Not necessarily. I might have something to do on that day.”

“Alright, if you have something to do, then go do it. But remember to keep in touch with me! I’m planning to settle down here after I return to China.” Tang Xin reached out and pinched the little girl’s fair and clear face. If Shen Jingmo bullies you, you can pack your luggage and come to me. I dare not say anything else, but with my financial resources, I have more than enough to support you for the rest of your life.”

Two days passed by in a flash. After Mu Qingyu finished drawing the draft, she stretched her wrists. There was still some time before the submission of the manuscript.

Mu Qingyu turned her head and picked up the half-completed Su embroidery that was placed on the other side. This was an order she had received from the workshop two months ago. If there were no mishaps, it would probably be completed by next month. However, if the Shen family wanted to hold a wedding during this period of time, Mu Qingyu would have to cooperate with numerous procedures. The completion might get delayed then. As such, Mu Qingyu would have to rush on working on it whenever she had time before the wedding.

The lotus flowers on the embroidered cloth were refined and elegant. Each petal was glowing. Perhaps even a gust of wind could blow these petals away.

As long as Mu Qingyu picked up a needle, her originally quiet temperament would become even more firm. Her brows remained still. Mu Qingyu embroidered for five to six hours. She only put down the embroidery cloth in her hands once the stars emerged in the sky. She then applied some eye drops to relieve her fatigue. In the next second, she heard Madam Shen gently knocking on the door.

“Qingyu, come out and drink some milk.”

“Alright, I’m coming!” Mu Qingyu agreed and got up to open the door. Based on Madam Shen’s expression, there seemed to be something wrong. Even though her face was physically smiling, Mu Qingyu could see the displeasure in Madam Shen’s eyes.

As expected, Madam Shen immediately conveyed, “Shen Jingmo has something to deal with at the company. He won’t be back for the time being. He relayed that there is no need to wait for him.”

Mu Qingyu wanted to laugh, but she was also touched. Wu Meixiang had always paid attention to her health. It was already nine o’clock in the evening. Under normal circumstances, Wu Meixiang would be going to bed in an hour. However, Wu Meixiang actually made an exception to comfort Mu Qingyu.

“That kid from the Fu family seems to be hosting a cocktail party. I heard it’s quite lively. Aunt will take you there to enjoy for a while,” Wu Meixiang said.

The Fu family? Could it be the Fu family that Tang Xin mentioned two days ago? An hour later, Mu Qingyu looked at the building in front of her. The structure was exactly the same as the one in the photo that Tang Xin sent her. With that, she managed to confirm her guess.

In Yan City’s most high-end clubhouse, a man sitting in the corner with his eyes closed seemed out of place with the people around him.

Fu Heng dragged Yu Yang to the door and questioned him, “How did you get this ancestor here?”

“Well, we were on a business trip together. It was a coincidence.”

“Shouldn’t you be resting at home after your business trip? What is he doing here?”

Yu Yang patted Fu Heng on the shoulder. “Please understand. Aunt Wu has been forcing him to get married recently. He doesn’t want to go home, so he came here to escape from reality…”

When Yu Yang said this, Fu Heng suddenly became overly alert. “F*ck, is this for real? I didn’t expect Young Master Shen wouldn’t be able to avoid an arranged marriage!”

Yu Yang sighed pretentiously. “That’s right. Our Young Master Shen is going to become an emotionless machine in the future!”

Fu Heng peeked at the man in the room. He was dressed in black while sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. No one knew what he was thinking about, and half of his face was hidden in the dark.

The man was quite handsome, but no one dared to get close to him. Everyone in the circle basically knew about Shen Jingmo’s marriage. They heard that the woman he got married to used to be from a good family, but now, her family had declined. Even though these people dared to gossip about it on WeChat, no one had the guts to approach Shen Jingmo in person.

“I have invited a lot of guests today. I know that Uncle Shen is not in a good mood. Go and wake him up. I’ll arrange for a few considerate and sensible sisters to comfort him. I don’t believe that his mood won’t improve.” Fu Heng encouraged Yu Yang to be cannon fodder.

“If you’re not afraid of death, then go.” Yu Yang laughed at Fu Heng. “Besides, with the speed at which Aunt Wu arranged blind dates, what kind of sisters has Young Master Shen not seen? Why would he be interested in those?”
