What was as popular as Xiu Yi’s upcoming fashion press conference was the news that Camellia Company was also holding a fashion press conference. And Camellia’s global design this time was handed over to Zou Man.
In the Jiang family’s villa, Zou Man was sitting opposite Liu Tanyu. The two of them ignored each other.
Father Jiang returned to the villa from the company. The moment he entered, he saw this scene that gave him a headache. Father Jiang looked at Jiang Kui. “Come with me.”
Jiang Kui let go of his son’s hand and followed Father Jiang into the study.
The moment he entered, Father Jiang threw the documents in his hand at Jiang Kui. “You sure know how to enjoy yourself. You even have two women. How are outsiders going to look at our Jiang family?!”
“Father.” Jiang Kui was also in a difficult position. “But Zou Man was officially married to me, and Liu Tanyu is Xiao Yu’s mother. Look at this…”
Father. Jiang was so angry that his head hurt. “I don’t care about this. Hurry up and settle it for me. Do you want to have a concubine?”
“No.” Jiang Kui laughed dryly. “Father, you must be joking.”
“Get out. All of you don’t give me any peace of mind.” Mr. Jiang waved his hand, looking like he did not want to see Jiang Kui.
Jiang Kui retreated and Liu Tanyu walked over with a fruit plate. “Ah Kui, I’ve washed the fruit. Try it.”
Jiang Kui tasted a cherry. “Mm, it’s quite sweet.”
Liu Tanyu smiled gently. “As long as you like it.”
Not far away, Zou Man looked up with disdain in her eyes. “Jiang Kui, the person in charge of Camellia’s fashion press conference asked me to ask you a few questions.”
Hearing this, Jiang Kui became excited. He walked towards Zou Man. “Let’s go upstairs and talk.”
“Mm.” Zou Man put down the things in her hand and handed her hand to Jiang Kui. Jiang Kui pulled her away.
After taking a few steps, Zou Man turned around and looked at Liu Tanyu with a mocking smile.
Watching them leave, Liu Tanyu’s face was filled with reluctance.
Xiao Yu shook Liu Tanyu’s sleeve. “Mommy, why isn’t Daddy accompanying us?”
Liu Tanyu gritted her teeth. “He’ll accompany us. Little Yu, don’t be anxious.”
With that, Liu Tanyu squatted down and stroked Xiao Yu’s head. Thinking of how Father Jiang had just called Jiang Kui in, she could guess that Father Jiang definitely wanted Jiang Kui to make a decision.
In that case, there could only be one person left between her and Zou Man.
Thinking of the fashion press conference Zou Man had just mentioned, Liu Tanyu thought of someone, Xia Wanyuan.
Zou Man and Xia Wanyuan had always had conflicts. If she could have Xia Wanyuan’s help, the position of the mistress of the Jiang family would definitely be hers.

The temperature rose day by day, and the entire capital became prosperous.
The entire manor was arranged into a sea of flowers.
Today, An Rao and Bo Xiao came to the manor with the little baby that had grown for a few days. Bo Xiao flipped through the dictionary at home for a few days and finally decided to name this little baby Bo Qingli.
When Xiao Bao leaned over to look at the child, his eyes widened in shock.
“Mommy, has Brother become fairer?” Xiao Bao gently poked Little Qingli’s hand with his little finger. The more he looked at his brother’s face, the cuter he felt.
“Mm, the child will look very good when he grows up.” Xia Wanyuan placed a golden lock in front of Little Qingli.
Xiao Bao blinked. “Will Brother look as cute and good-looking as me in two days??”
Jun Shiling suddenly said, “He’s better looking than you.”
Xiao Bao turned around angrily. “Daddy, you’re talking nonsense!! I’m the cutest!!”
Jun Shiling snorted softly and ignored Xiao Bao.
Xiao Bao was extremely aggrieved and looked pitifully at Xia Wanyuan. “Mommy.”
Xia Wanyuan pushed Jun Shiling in amusement. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand.
This child was already narcissistic enough. If he did not hold back, Xiao Bao’s tail would be wagging.
Xiao Bao puffed up his cheeks and turned around. Only my younger brother is cute. What father? Hmph!
An Rao could already move normally. She held Xia Wanyuan’s arm. “Sister, I heard that you’re going to hold a fashion press conference. Do you think I can be your model??”
“Of course.” Xia Wanyuan nodded.
“Really? Then I want to choose my own clothes!!”
“Okay.” With that, Xia Wanyuan brought An Rao upstairs. The two of them chose the design of various clothes in the study.
Downstairs, Xiao Bao had already become Little Qingli’s personal nanny, and he was especially meticulous.
Jun Shiling and Bo Xiao sat by the window and drank tea.
“Have you considered the question I asked you last time?” Jun Shiling looked at Bo Xiao.
“Mm.” Bo Xiao nodded. “I still insist on the answer at that time.”
Bo Xiao seemed to not dare to look back at Jun Shiling. He looked at the garden outside the window with a dark expression.
“Alright, since you’re unwilling to come back, I won’t force you.” Jun Shiling nodded. “What do you plan to do in the future?”
Only then did Bo Xiao turn to look at Jun Shiling. “I don’t know yet. Stay at home with An Rao and the child first. I only know now that being a father feels so magical.”
This was the first time in his life, but it made him extremely infatuated with this feeling. Every time he saw that small creature, Bo Xiao felt a warmth from the bottom of his heart.
Such a small baby was the product of his and An Rao’s love.
Bo Xiao insisted on retiring, so the two of them changed the topic and tried their best to avoid talking about this.
An Rao flipped through the design draft in the study and exclaimed.
Xia Wanyuan walked out to take a breather and stood in the corridor to look down.
The spring was just right. There was hope for new life in this world. There were flowers everywhere, loved ones, and friends.
A warm light appeared in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes.
If only time could stop at this moment, she thought.
——
In the Beijing restaurant, Xia Yu treated his roommates to a meal.
Since his roommates had already begun their internship, everyone dispersed after dinner. Xia Yu was the last to leave.
He was about to leave when he met Jiang Yun, who was surrounded by everyone.
Jiang Yun was still the same as before. She was dressed in a white suit and had short hair. She was clearly young, but her eyes already had a dignity that far exceeded her peers.
“CEO Jiang, this restaurant’s turnover this year…” The assistant was introducing it to Jiang Yun in detail, but Jiang Yun stopped in her tracks.
She looked at Xia Yu in front of her.
It was said that the place that could hone a man the most was the battlefield.
The current Xia Yu seemed to be very different from the Xia Yu in her impression.
His almond-shaped eyes were still bright, but they seemed to have become more firm. The originally slender young man’s body had become tall and slender after the tempering of military life. His young shoulders seemed to be rapidly stabilizing.
Jiang Yun pursed her lips and looked away, preparing to leave.
“Wait.” Xia Yu spoke first. “CEO Jiang, do you mind talking for a while?”
Jiang Yun wanted to reject him, but when she met Xia Yu’s bright eyes, she could not help but nod.
The two of them walked to a quiet lounge.
Jiang Yun turned around. “What’s the matter?”
“I heard that CEO Jiang is getting married, right?” Xia Yu looked at Jiang Yun, his beautiful almond-shaped eyes making one’s hair stand on end.
Jiang Yun subconsciously looked away. “You’re still young. You don’t understand.”
“Pfft.” Xia Yu sneered. “You don’t seem to be older than me, right?”
Jiang Yun sighed slightly in her heart. “It’s different.”
Her biological age was similar to Xia Yu’s, but in terms of psychological age, Jiang Yun was much older than Xia Yu.
When Xia Yu was still in primary school, Jiang Yun had already begun to learn to master all sorts of business in America.
While Xia Yu still had all sorts of pure relationships, Jiang Yun was already at ease in the rich and powerful circle of America. She had seen countless dirty and ugly people and schemed against their hearts.
Later, Jiang Yun calmed down and thought about it. She was attracted to Xia Yu because he had something she lacked the most.
And she did not want to erase Xia Yu’s bright temperament because of her.
After all, the struggle between the families was far more capable of devouring everything than a black hole.
Xia Yu gritted his teeth. “Have you always treated me like a child? Have I never grown up in your heart?”
“No.” Jiang Yun tried her best to speak to Xia Yu calmly. “I know you’ve been growing, but how should I say it? We’re not suitable.”
“If I go to your wedding venue, will you leave with me?” After a moment of silence, Xia Yu finally asked.
Jiang Yun glanced at Xia Yu’s handsome side profile and shook her head with a smile. “No.”
Father Jiang did not want her to be with Xia Yu, and he had many extreme actions. However, Father Jiang was right about one thing. Even if she and Xia Yu were together, they would eventually separate.
They were from two different worlds.
“I understand.” Xia Yu gritted his teeth and turned to leave without any reluctance.
Behind him, Jiang Yun clenched her fists, her eyes red.
If she was not the daughter of the Jiang family, she was actually willing to gamble with Xia Yu, but it was a pity.
Jiang Yun took a deep breath and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Then, she turned around and walked towards her subordinates who had been waiting for a long time.
“Continue reporting.”

Usually, big-name fashion conferences were held in France. After all, that was the historical fashion capital where all sorts of fashion people gathered.
Even many shows in China were sometimes held in France.
Back then, Xia Wanyuan had participated in the World Design Competition in France. At this press conference, everyone thought that Xia Wanyuan was going to strike while the iron was hot and go to France to show off her new summer product, further expanding the international market.
However, no one expected that Xia Wanyuan did not plan to hold a physical show this time.
Instead, she prepared to release this exhibition in the form of an online show.
After Xiu Yi’s official announcement, it immediately caused an argument.
[ Even being innovative can’t be like this, right… Aren’t clothes meant to be worn on people? What does the Internet show mean? I don’t understand. ]
[I don’t care. Just support Xia Wanyuan unconditionally. Anyway, I don’t think Xia Wanyuan will ever disappoint me.]
While the Internet was filled with controversy, in the suburbs of Beijing, a large runway with real scenery as the foundation, coupled with digital painting and visual special effects synthesis technology, was preparing.
n order to meet the requirements of ten different backgrounds, the entire scenic area here was almost booked by the Xiafeng Group. Every day, all sorts of resources were flown here from all over the country.
Other than classes, Xia Wanyuan would come and guide the completion of various sets whenever she was free. In just a week, she had lost about five pounds.
Jun Shiling was angry and heartbroken.
