"What is she doing?" Song Yao was stunned, "Isn't she trying to ruin Zhou Yuerou's welcome banquet?"

Jiang Yuhuai followed Xie Shizhu's back with his eyes, then glanced at Zhou Yuan who was standing aside. He saw the cruel look on Zhou Yuan's face, and then changed his gaze: "Maybe."

"Ah? It's not like that," Song Yao said. "There are security guards here. If she does something inappropriate, she will be ruined. Besides, Zhou Yuan doesn't treat her sincerely and won't help her if something happens. Why are you trying to please Zhou Yuan?"

Yuan does this kind of thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Shizhu was already standing in front of Zhou Yuerou.

Chi Ze frowned. After he saw Zhou Yuerou's face, before he could take another look, he was blocked by Xie Shizhu.

He cursed: What on earth does Xie Shizhu want to do?

Mr. Zhou looked her up and down and said, "Are you Zhou Yuan's friend? Go aside now."

When Zhou Yuerou saw Xie Shizhu staring at her, especially after hearing the words of Zhou Yuan's friend, she probably guessed something and took a step back subconsciously.

Xie Shizhu took out something from his pocket, then stretched it out in front of Zhou Yuerou, spread his palms, and said softly with a smile: "Miss Zhou, I just picked this up on the ground outside. It has your name on it, so it should be

It's yours."

Zhou Yuerou looked at her wet palm, which was the longevity lock she was looking for just now.

She breathed a sigh of relief after finding it, with a trace of guilt in her heart, and her face full of gratitude. She took the longevity lock from Xie Shizhu's hand and said with a smile: "Thank you, you got wet because you helped me pick this up. I'll take you with me."

Go change clothes."

Mr. Zhou was stunned, staring at the longevity lock, and hurriedly asked Zhou Yuerou, "I put this on your neck when you were born. I didn't expect you to still keep it."

Zhou Yuerou nodded, "Yes, Dad."

This was the first time Zhou Yuerou called him daddy. Mr. Zhou felt happy instantly. He also looked at Xie Shizhu gratefully and said, "Thank you, little girl. If it weren't for you, I would have lost this."

Xie Shizhu shook his head: "You're welcome, I just saw Miss Zhou drop something at the door. Because the rain was too heavy, I didn't have time to stop her, so I went to pick it up myself. As long as I didn't lose it."

Zhou Yuerou held Xie Shizhu's wrist without disdain and said to Mr. Zhou: "Dad, I'll take her to change into clean clothes before she comes out. You entertain these guests first."

"OK."

Zhou Yuerou enthusiastically took Xie Shizhu's hand upstairs.

Mr. Zhou coughed lightly: "I have prepared cakes and drinks for you..."

Chi Ze heard their conversation and remembered the scene with Xie Shizhu in the rain just now, and frowned slightly. Did he misunderstand Xie Shizhu?

The Miss Zhou she talks about is not Zhou Yuan but Zhou Yuerou?

Song Yao said: "I was scared to death. I thought she was going to do something."

Jiang Yuhuai stared at Xie Shizhu's back as he climbed the stairs. The woman was wearing white short-sleeved clothes, which were soaked by the rain and clung to the outline of her body. The edges of her underwear could be vaguely seen. He looked away casually, with a smile on his lips, "Well, look.

Don't look stupid."

"...It's the first time I hear you praise someone," Song Yao sighed, "It's strange."

Jiang Yuhuai is telling the truth. It is better to get closer to Zhou Yuerou than to continue to be with Zhou Yuan, a fake daughter.

On the other side, Zhou Yuan gritted her teeth and couldn't understand Xie Shizhu's behavior, but because Chi Ze was not far away, she hurriedly asked the servant to prepare hot tea and came to Chi Ze holding it in both hands.

She said softly: "It rained just now and it's cold outside. Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Chi Ze glanced at her from the corner of his eye and said coldly: "No need."

Embarrassment flashed in Zhou Yuan's eyes, and she squeezed the cup tightly with her fingertips. The next second, Song Yao took the cup from her hand and said with a smile: "Miss Zhou, I won't be polite if she doesn't drink."

Jiang Yuhuai and Song Yao came to Chi Ze. Jiang Yuhuai nodded slightly and said hello to Chi Ze.

Chi Ze responded, passed by them, chatted a few words with Mr. Zhou, and then left Zhou's house holding an umbrella.

Zhou Yuan looked at Chi Ze's back reluctantly.

"Brother Jiang," Zhou Yuan smiled when facing Jiang Yuhuai, "Thank you for taking care of my friend. Is she okay at your place? She shouldn't cause any trouble, right?"

In Zhou Yuan's mind, Xie Shizhu must have suffered a lot in that place, surrounded by handsome men, beautiful women and rich people, which must have given Xie Shizhu a lot of blows.

Jiang Yuhuai said calmly: "She is as smart and beautiful as Miss Zhou."

Zhou Yuan's face froze. It was a humiliation to compare Xie Shizhu with her.

pretty?

Zhou Yuan sneered in her heart.

But she didn't dare to show her face to Jiang Yuhuai, so she could only endure the dissatisfaction in her heart and said with a smile: "Well, thank you Brother Jiang for taking care of me."

Zhou Yuerou picked out the most beautiful clothes for Xie Shizhu in the cloakroom prepared by the Zhou family. Seeing that she had finished taking a shower and drying her hair, she smiled and said: "Actually, you are pretty good-looking. Put it on, I will bring it with you later."

You eat something."

Xie Shizhu took her clothes and smiled shyly: "Thank you."

Zhou Yuerou was infected by her smile, and said with a charming smile: "No need to thank me, I should thank you."

After changing their clothes, the two went downstairs, where the guests were chatting and clinking glasses.

Zhou Yuerou took her to the corner and handed her a small cake, "Would you like to eat it?"

Xie Shizhu nodded.

When Xie Shizhu just took it over, someone patted her shoulder from behind. She turned around and saw Jiang Yuhuai, and was stunned, "Boss."

Jiang Yuhuai glanced at Zhou Yuerou next to him, then focused on Xie Shizhu, "You don't need to call me that outside."

Xie Shizhu pursed his lips and whispered the word "good" in a low voice.

The system said excitedly: [Host, Jiang Yuhuai was unmoved when he saw Zhou Yuerou’s face shaking the world and weeping ghosts and gods!]

Xie Shizhu automatically ignored the system's surprise.

Someone called Jiang Yuhuai's name. Jiang Yuhuai's eyes stayed on Xie Shizhu's face for a while, "I'll excuse you now."

"Well, okay."

As soon as he left, Zhou Yuan walked angrily behind Xie Shizhu. Zhou Yuerou noticed Zhou Yuan's unkind expression, frowned and left.

Zhou Yuan said: "Xie Shizhu, what were you doing just now? Why did you help Zhou Yuerou pick up the longevity lock?"

Xie Shizhu picked up her fork and took a bite of the strawberry. She smiled and said, "Have you forgotten our plan?"

Zhou Yuan was stunned and then asked: "What do you mean?"

Xie Shizhu put down the cake, "Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Isn't this just the beginning?"

Zhou Yuan later recalled what Xie Shizhu had said before, and the stone in her heart was relieved. Then she looked at Xie Shizhu's expensive clothes and said with a mocking tone, "Have you ever heard a sentence?"

Xie Shizhu shook his head.

Zhou Yuan snorted coldly: "The ugly duckling can't turn into a white swan no matter what."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Yuan didn't seem to want to continue communicating with Xie Shizhu, so she said, "Let's go after staying for a while. It's too late and there are no buses or subways."

She turned around and stepped on her high heels, leaving Xie Shizhu with a proud back.

Xie Shizhu stared at her back and whispered back the word "good".

After a while, Xie Shizhu raised his eyebrows lightly.
