she demanded. My hand pauses slightly as I flip through the menu and look up at her. Her expression is not as disgusted by me as it used to be, but her annoyance is obvious.

That's right, how could she possibly like me? Even though Lou Shaotang's attitude was already that clear, and it had to be me for the rest of her life, she still stubbornly refused to accept it.

Listening to her tear apart my scars, and blaming it on me for Lou Shaotang not wanting Heng Heng, my heart ached yet again.

Seeing that my face was not looking good, Shen Yiru frowned, his expression relaxed, "Alright, even if he made the decision himself, it was because he took your feelings into consideration. What about you? Have you thought about him? " Her attitude was not as unyielding as before.

I stared at her, thinking.

The reason she came to find me today was definitely not to simply question me. If I'm not mistaken, she wanted me to act as a lobbyist to persuade Lou Shaotang to take back his orders.

"Then what do you want me to do?"

I pushed the menu to the side, folded my arms, and leaned back in my chair, in the proud posture of someone sitting on the same level as her.

Shen Yiru frowned slightly, her expression revealing her displeasure, but she did not dare flare up.

She didn't answer me. She stared at me for a few seconds, then said: "Second brother is preparing to compete with Shao Tang for the position of power. You know that, right?"

I immediately understood the meaning of her words and nodded my head, but in my heart, I simply smiled coldly.

In the end, she was a scheming woman, not to command me, but to analyze the pros and cons with me first, making me willing to take the initiative to convince Lou Shaotang.

"Because Shao Tang didn't recognize Heng Heng, so the old man was very disappointed with Shao Tang. Adding on that the old man's wife is pregnant now, the old man has already expressed his support for the old man." Shen Yiru continued to speak, "Even though he has abdicated, the old man's prestige still exists. The shareholders will more or less see his attitude and conduct themselves, especially the old officials, who will all follow his lead. If they are also supporting number two, Shao Tang's position will definitely not be preserved. "

Maybe it was because of this result that Shen Yiru's expression became serious, "Better still, he might still stay in 'Tianyue', and hang up her post like Ol 'Three, but if Ol' Two wants to kill all of them, and expel Shao Tang from 'Tianyue', all of his efforts will go down the drain!"

At this point, she suddenly became agitated, and her hands subconsciously clenched into fists.

She didn't actually say this just to make me compromise. It was a fact.

To be honest, I've thought about this before, and I've been worried about it. But after the last time Lou Shaotang easily resolved the old man's impeachment towards him, I set my worries aside and trust in his abilities even more than before, so I firmly believed that this time, he would definitely have a way to defeat Qiao Chenfei.

But I can't not care about Shen Yiru's feelings. She only had Lou Shaotang as her only son, and the only person she could rely on was him. Honestly speaking, it wasn't easy for her to bring him up. Although he didn't have to worry about food and clothing, her mental suffering was no different from that of an ordinary widowed mother. It could even be said that the pressure was greater. Because she was in the Wealthy Class, she had to take precautions, always on guard against the enemy's ambush.

Seeing Lou Shaotang about to become the leader of the Lou Family, yet suddenly facing such a huge crisis, his position was in danger, no one could blame his for being so anxious.

Judging from her haggard expression, she must have been unable to sleep or eat. 'Moreover, she must be in a desperate situation. Otherwise, how could someone as haughty and proud as her come looking for me? '

"I know all of this, and Shao Tang is very clear about it as well. I will go back and advise him, but whether or not he listens to it doesn't depend on me." I felt sorry for him.

Seeing that I was willing to cooperate, Shen Yiru's worried face finally revealed a smile of anticipation, "As long as you insist, he will definitely listen."

Persistence?

Heh, I coldly sneered in my heart. She's still giving me a death order. If Lou Shaotang still doesn't agree, then the responsibility will lie with me, because I didn't persuade him firmly enough, not thoroughly enough.

Forget it, I don't want to bother with her. After all, our goals are the same, and all of us are hoping for Lou Shaotang's good.

After a while, Shen Yiru asked me if Lou Shaotang was busy this weekend, and I understood what she meant was, she wanted Lou Shaotang to return to Garden to eat dinner. Although she had clearly told Lou Shaotang about it the last time she came to South of the City Apartments, Lou Shaotang still turned a deaf ear to her words.

Hearing Lou Shaotang say this, she had called him many times and even went to "Tianyue" to find him a few times. However, every time, Lou Shaotang would tell his that he was busy and did not have time to go.

"Let me ask, I'm not sure either."

Shen Yiru frowned, from her expression, it could be seen that she was skeptical about my words, and thought that I was fooling her. But she didn't say anything, she understood clearly that whether Lou Shaotang would return to Garden or not, all depends on me. So don't be rude to me and offend me.

In fact, I was trying to stall her. No matter how busy Lou Shaotang was, Gemini would always be free to accompany me. But I won't.

"If you're not busy, then ask him to come back. In a few days, it will be the day of his father's sacrifice."

A hint of sadness surfaced on Shen Yiru's face. It was unknown whether it was because she missed her late husband or because Lou Shaotang had never returned to the Garden to visit her.

Actually, in the past, Lou Shaotang's father's day of sacrifice was held at the Dragon Hidden Temple, so he did not need to return to Garden. But since she said that, it means that Lou Shaotang has to go back, maybe I should go with her.

I don't believe that she didn't tell Lou Shaotang about this matter before, and I think Lou Shaotang must have found some sort of excuse to reject her. Although his heart is unwilling, but this is related to Lou Shaotang's filial piety, I do not want him to speak truthfully and say that he is unfilial. Thus, he replied, "Okay, I will tell him."

After he finished speaking, Shen Yiru did not linger around any longer. After she left, I no longer had the mood to continue working. Thinking about how to persuade Lou Shaotang to recognize Heng Heng again, my heart was filled with complicated feelings.

Although Lou Shaotang no longer had any feelings for Zheng Keer, kinship and business were different. To be able to use a buyout method to sever all connections with the other party. Once Heng Heng is recognized, it's impossible that they don't have any connections, and I really don't want them to have any interactions anymore. But to continue to refuse to admit it, no matter whether it was to Heng Heng or Shen Yiru, was still quite cruel.

I exhaled irritably, picked up the glass of water, and drank it down in one gulp.

Originally, he wanted to find Shu Qiao to pour out her secrets, but who knew if he could get through to him. He didn't know if she was dating her, the boyfriend from little emptiness, or maybe he was too busy opening up the Hot Pot Shop. So I went shopping alone.

As they passed a sunken square where some sort of activity was taking place, singing and dancing on the stage, the audience was in a heated atmosphere. I didn't stop, but I suddenly heard the host say, "Below, there's a new celebrity idol, Mina." I immediately stopped and looked up at the giant screen on the wall, which was synchronized with the scene.

Mina walked up the steps with a twist of her hips. She was dressed even cooler than last time, wearing a tight, black leather vest with a tight bra that exposed two-thirds of her spectacular chest. Her slim, white waist and navel were exposed, and her short skirt was tied around her waist.

Even though she was a model, her face and figure won her, so she didn't have too strict requirements on her height. Even though she was wearing a pair of red shoes, she was still shorter than me.

As I listened to her coquettish voice, blinking her large eyes as adorably as possible to greet the audience, I couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over my body. I really admired my inability to deal with this kind of unnatural beauty. Just as I was about to leave, I heard someone call out to me from behind, "Sis ~ Sis ~"

With such a high-pitched voice, it sounded like a sissy.

I turned around. Kevin was waving excitedly at me and dashing toward me.

I smiled at him. "Kevin."

He ran up to me and straightened the small, crooked handkerchief around his neck. "Sis, why are you so free to come here today?"

"I was just passing by on some business nearby."

"Oh ~" Kevin understood and immediately asked excitedly, "Are you done then? I'll treat you to a meal! "

"Everything's fine, why are you treating me to a meal?" I asked, puzzled.

Despite being friends with sissy, we didn't have much interaction with each other. We would only occasionally chat on WeChat, comment or whatever in the circle of friends. However, he did say that he would treat me to a meal a few times, but I always answered him casually and didn't take it seriously.

Kevin threw his hands away in anger. He didn't seem to agree with what I said. He said in a high-pitched voice, "Please, I'll treat you. What other reason do you need?" He turned his head towards the stage behind him, "Wait for me, I'll go to the back and pack up my makeup case."

Saying that, regardless of whether I agree or not, I turned around and left. He had only taken a few steps, probably because he was afraid that I would run away. Then, he turned his head back and reminded, "Wait for me, don't leave!"

Since he was inviting me so enthusiastically, I wouldn't give him too much face if I were to reject his invitation.

"Sure." "Go ahead."

I stood next to a large billboard on the other side of the crowd.

At this moment, the event had ended. The audience dispersed one by one, and the host also disappeared without a trace. On the stage, only Mina and a few other young models remained.

Mina was holding her cell phone in one hand, with the other empty fist on her cheek. With her eyes wide open and her cherry lips pouting, she was taking selfies.

She changed angles several times, some even deliberately pulling down their collars to take close-ups of her breasts.

I was speechless. Why didn't she take off all her clothes and take pictures? It was still safe!

After a while, she finished taking the photos while holding her cell phone. She did not know what she was doing, but she was smiling happily. There was even a hint of a young girl's shyness in her smile. Her pretty face was suffused with a faint blush.

This expression was as if he had fallen in love.

A few young models were gathered together, whispering as they looked at her, envy and contempt written all over their faces.

I curled my lips and smiled in understanding. Having the same sex as her and also being like her, Mina's looks and figure were a cut above theirs. They were jealous. It was normal for them to say bad things about her. However, it can be seen that Mina's EQ should not be high, and it would not be good for relationships.

Just as I was guessing, Mina looked up and her eyes met mine. She was stunned for a moment. Then, she lowered her head to look at the phone in her hand. Then, as if she had done something guilty, her face turned pale and she immediately put the phone back into her pocket.

I was confused, but I didn't think too much about it.

Mina came down from the stage and walked toward me, a lovely smile on her face.
