Chapter 2109 - 2109 Twins
2109 Twins
They booked a high-end private kitchen for dinner tonight.
It had always been difficult to book a table at this spot. It was very famous in Jingdu City.
However, it was precisely because of this that there was no need to worry about the paparazzi following them.
At this moment, Old Madam Qiao and the entire Qiao family had also booked a table in the private kitchen and were welcoming a very distinguished guest.
This guest was Lu Wenhui, the founder of the jewelry brand Queen.
It was also the brand of the red agate bracelets that Qiao Jierou bought from Qiao Weiyang that day.
Qiao Jierou did not know Lu Wenhui at first. It was only through Lin Heng that she got on Lu Wenhui’s good side.
Old Madam Qiao and Qiao Jierou were waiting at the door for Lu Wenhui to come.
“This time, you must ask President Lu to help us custom-make an agate accessory for Old Madam Han,” Old Madam Qiao reminded Qiao Jierou.
Otherwise, they would offend the Han family badly this time.
For this big matter, Lin Heng even brought Mr. and Madam Lin over today to speak up for the Qiao family and ask Lu Wenhui for help.
Qiao Jierou nodded. “I understand the importance of this matter.”
The two of them were waiting when they suddenly saw a familiar figure appear.
Qiao Jierou immediately frowned. “Why is Sister here?”
Old Madam Qiao took a closer look. It was indeed Qiao Weiyang!
She immediately said unhappily, “What is she doing here? She’s really haunting us! Could it be that she knows that Lin Heng is here and that we’re going to see President Lu, so she specially came?”
Qiao Jierou rubbed her palms and had a bad feeling.
Qiao Weiyang could not forget Brother Lin Heng. Wherever Lin Heng was, she would be there. It was really annoying!
“Grandma, it’s fine for Sister to come and see Brother Lin Heng. I’m just afraid that she’ll have other thoughts and s.n.a.t.c.h President Lu away. As you know, she loves jewelry and clothes the most.”
Thinking of how Qiao Weiyang had previously sold the problematic jewelry to Qiao Jierou, which caused her to offend Old Madam Han, Old Madam Qiao immediately said hatefully, “We definitely won’t give her a chance this time!”
Coincidentally, Lu Wenhui appeared. Old Madam Qiao quickly welcomed her. “President Lu! h.e.l.lo, President Lu. Let’s go to the private room where we can sit.”
“Okay.” Lu Wenhui nodded and followed Old Madam Qiao.
When Qiao Weiyang saw the situation over there, she glanced at it indifferently. She did not care much about the Qiao family’s situation but took another look at Lu Wenhui.
Lu Wenhui also saw Qiao Weiyang and wanted to greet her, but the Qiao family’s att.i.tude was too enthusiastic, so she didn’t have the time. She could only forget about it for now.
Qiao Weiyang entered another private room.
Director Cao was already waiting in the private room with Madam Cao and their daughter.
Madam Cao was not even 40 years old, and she was full of charm. When she spoke, she narrowed her eyes and smiled. “Miss Qiao, I’m sorry to waste your time.”
“It’s okay. Just call me Weiyang.”
“Sister Weiyang,” Director Cao’s daughter called out sweetly.
She was about ten years old and had lost some milk teeth. When she opened her mouth, she was a little embarra.s.sed. She pursed her lips to prevent others from seeing her missing teeth. She looked especially cute.
Qiao Weiyang’s greatest weakness in her life was not only her adoptive mother but also children.
Seeing Director Cao’s daughter, the usual coldness on her face disappeared and was replaced by a smile.
It turned out that Director Cao’s daughter was called Cao Xin. Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “We’re so fated.”
“That’s right, Sister Weiyang. I like the characters in the movies you filmed before so much. They’re super cute!”
Qiao Weiyang had experience with Xiao Bao, so it was very easy for her to get along with Cao Xin.
Madam Cao was also a very good person and did not say much. She kept looking at her daughter as if her daughter’s happiness was all that mattered to her.
Qiao Weiyang chatted for a while before she received a WeChat message.
Su: [Mingjue said that you’re having dinner in the private kitchen in the south of the city? I’m there too. Let me know when you’re going back. We’ll go together.]
Qiao: [Okay.]
“Sister Weiyang, are you sending a WeChat message to your boyfriend?” Cao Xin asked curiously.
Madam Cao hurriedly stopped her. “Xin Xin, don’t talk nonsense.”
“It’s okay.” Qiao Weiyang smiled and shook her head. “Why would you guess that?”
“Because you looked so gentle just now. There were stars in your eyes.”
Qiao Weiyang didn’t know that she was like this.
She had only replied to Su Zhuoqian with one word…
Madam Cao hurriedly said, “Weiyang, children’s words carry no harm. Don’t take it to heart. Xin Xin, you can’t say such things in the future.”
“Oh.” Cao Xin pouted. “Why not?”
“Celebrities can’t be in relations.h.i.+ps. If the reporters outside find out about your nonsense, it’ll be terrible. Your Sister Weiyang is already under a lot of pressure. If she gets into any more scandals, the pressure she’ll have to face will be even greater.”
“Oh, okay.”
Qiao Weiyang said, “It’s okay. Xin Xin just said it casually.”
“Weiyang, I’ve always known that everyone in this industry is under extreme pressure, especially you, who just made a comeback. You have to be more careful.” Her words were sincere.
Qiao Weiyang nodded gratefully, knowing that she was right.
Halfway through the meal, Qiao Weiyang received a WeChat message from Lu Wenhui.
She walked out to the washroom outside.
Lu Wenhui was leaning against the smoking area of the washroom and lighting a cigarette.
Seeing Qiao Weiyang come over, she put out her cigarette and smiled. “Weiyang!”
“Aunt Wenhui.” Qiao Weiyang walked to her side. “I’ve told you many times not to smoke. There was something wrong with your lungs last time. Have you forgotten so quickly?”
“I only smoke once in a while.” Lu Wenhui was in her 40s and was smart and capable.
As the founder of a jewelry brand that had pushed Queen into the domestic first-tier market, she had always had a clean temperament.
However, in front of Qiao Weiyang, she looked like a child who was in the wrong.
A few years ago, it was Qiao Weiyang who helped her recuperate. Now that she was caught red-handed, she naturally could not get angry.
“You can’t smoke even one!”
Qiao Weiyang took the pack of cigarettes that still had about half and threw it into the trash can.
Lu Wenhui looked at Qiao Weiyang dotingly and raised her hand. “Alright, alright. I won’t smoke anymore.”
She stuffed something into Qiao Weiyang’s hand. “This is for you!”
Qiao Weiyang looked down and saw that it was a s.h.i.+ning diamond.
Judging from the quality and size, it was really top-notch.
“Aunt Wenhui, keep it for yourself.” Every time they met, she would either give Qiao Weiyang diamonds or agate. Qiao Weiyang had already accepted many things from her.
“Since I’m giving it to you, take it. How much money do you earn for the designs you give me every year? You don’t want the dividends I give you either. I know you like to study these things, so this is all I can give you.”
