Third wife Chu Rou's birthday is approaching. The eldest lady has been working during the day these days and locks herself in her room at night to make birthday gifts for Aunt Rou.
What she prepared was a ring made of 18k gold, natural aquamarine and diamonds.
The craftsmanship is not complicated for her, a top jewelry designer, but the quality of this aquamarine is so big and so pure. It is simply a one-of-a-kind collection, and its value is not inferior to that of precious stones. gem.
She was never stingy or perfunctory about the gifts she gave to her relatives, but she always put a lot of thought into them.
The same thing happened to those she sent to Shen Jingxue in the past.
It's just that man never took her feelings seriously.
At this time, the mobile phone on the table showed a video call, which was from Sliva, the head of her jewelry studio.
"If you call me at this time, you must have something to report to me, right?" Tang Qiaoer asked while polishing the gemstone carefully.
"Alexa, do you remember Tyler?" Sliva asked.
"Remember, he worked as an apprentice under me for three years, and then he went out to start a new business. He is a very talented young man with good craftsmanship. What's wrong?"
"The day before yesterday, someone contacted him and asked him to imitate your jewelry. Oh, are you angry? If you don't come back to the world, the world will be full of your pirated products!"
Tang Qiaoer kept working in her hands and smiled nonchalantly: "What's so annoying about this? I'm so awesome. If someone can't get me, they can only buy fake ones to satisfy their little vanity."
"Tyler couldn't contact you, so he came to tell me immediately. He didn't want to answer the call at all, and he didn't dare to answer the call. Not to mention that the fraud was an insult to his personality as a designer, and asked him to forge his master's works. Isn’t it just deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors!”
Good guy, after staying with the eldest lady for a long time, the blond and blue-eyed foreign girl has even learned such difficult words as bullying one's master and destroying one's ancestors.
Tang Qiaoer couldn't hold back her curiosity after all, "Let me ask, who is the person who asked him to copy my works? Hong Kong Zhen, anyone who can find out that he is my apprentice must have a good background, right?"
"I don't know where he met such a person. He said that the girl was from Shengjing in the Eastern Kingdom, and she was a wealthy lady with the surname Huo."
Tang Qiaoer: (o_o)?!
"Oh, by the way, she is also the apprentice of the famous pianist Christian."
The eldest lady's shrewd eyes blinked.
Oh...that's what happened.
Since they were rushing to hit the gun, she wouldn't be polite.
"Sliva, go tell Tyler and tell him what his master means. Let him take over Miss Huo's order." Tang Qiaoer's beautiful eyes raised a hint of evil, and she raised the corners of her lips.
"Ah? Why?!" sliva was puzzled.
"Not only do you have to accept it, but you also have to do it well and make it look decent. Don't ruin your reputation as a teacher."

Five days later, Shen Jingjue, who had just finished a meeting in the group, received a message.
Adawang, who had never relented, actually agreed!
"What's going on?" Shen Jingjue's eyes were dark, and the figure standing in front of the window was dark and oppressive.
Han Xian said anxiously at the side: "I heard that the third lady got the jewelry designed by Alexa from somewhere and gave it to Adawang, so she made this happen!"
Shen Jingjue gave him a cold look, "Oh, it must be a fake."
"This... I don't know. But Adawang is also a jewelry collector. If it is true, can she not tell it?"
Han Xian shuddered, his face fell down in depression, "Oh! If the third lady really successfully signed a contract with adawang, then Shen's Hotel will be the property of the old witch and her daughter!
At that time, they still don’t know how much benefit they will get from it, so they have to drink every drop of peanut oil in the kitchen?!”
"Tang Qiao'er should have already known the news." Shen Jing felt her long eyelashes twitching and whispered to herself.
Now that Shen Bailu has taken down Adawang, he will face a new wave of family fights and power seizures, and he will definitely be in more trouble than Tang Qiaoer.
However, he was only thinking about Tang Qiao'er's situation and did not think about himself at all.
Han Xian sighed, "Young Madam's place has been very quiet these days. I guess I have given up on struggling!"
"Give up? How is that possible?"
Shen Jing felt his dark eyes half-closed, and the blood in his body was surging restlessly, "Others may do it, but Tang Qiao'er will never give up easily.
She has been silent these past few days, so she is probably hiding her strength and biding her time. I believe she will be able to find a way to counter Shen Bailu."
After all, how can Shen Bailu's cerebellum-encrusted IQ compare to his resourceful wife?
No, it's my ex-wife.
Inexplicably, Shen Jingjue felt a tight soreness in his chest.

That night, the Shen family gathered together for a rare occasion and went to Juyue Bay to have dinner with Mr. Shen once a month.
During the dinner, the atmosphere seemed so harmonious, even Shen Bailu poured drinks and served food to Shen Chulu for the first time, as if they were a pair of sisters who loved each other.
Shen Chulu sat next to her second brother, immersed in the meal and did not dare to say a word.
It's just that although she is autistic and introverted, she has backbone.
She didn't drink the water Shen Bailu poured for her, and she pushed the vegetables aside without eating a bite.
"Dad, Ah Shu and I have been discussing an important matter recently. We have already thought about it. I am here to tell you this time and ask for your opinion." Shen Guangjing sat down with his chopsticks. After all, he is a noble man and has table manners. Very good.
"You two have already agreed, and yet you come up to me, an old guy, and say something."
Shen Nanhuai lowered his eyes and picked up a piece of Dongpo meat and chewed it in his mouth, "What can't your sweet wife solve? It's enough to have her help you with ideas. She has no control over what you have been doing all these years." Did they all come here like this?"
Qin Shu forced a smile, and there was a trace of resentment in her eyes.
Every month, the most painful thing for her is to come here to have dinner with the old man, who always has to ridicule her with a gun and a stick, forcing her to have insomnia the night before he comes!
When will this old guy return to the West?
Shen Guangjing frowned and coughed, and held Qin Shu's hand under the table, "Dad, now that Bai Lu has reached the marriageable age, I think her marriage should be put on the agenda."
Shen Bailu pursed her lips slightly, her cheeks flushed shyly.
"marriage?"
Shen Nanhuai paused with his chopsticks and frowned, "My eldest granddaughter is only twenty-five. She is so young. I still want my two granddaughters to stay with me for two more years before getting married! Are you so anxious?"
Shen Guangjing: "..."
"Besides, our Shen family's daughter doesn't have to worry about getting married. Let alone twenty-five, even fifty-two is just a flower, and there are many people rushing to get it!"
Suddenly, the old man looked around at Shen Guangjing suspiciously, "Hey...could it be that the group has had some problems recently and is eager to resolve the crisis through business marriage?"
"Dad, you misunderstood, the group is fine." Qin Shu hurriedly put on a fake smile to speak for her husband.
"Shen Guangjing, let me tell you, even if the Shen Group's capital chain is completely cut off tomorrow and it is about to go bankrupt, you must not sell your daughter for glory! Our daughter of the Shen family must not enter into a business marriage. Do you hear me? ?!"
"Oh grandpa, where did you think you were going?"
Shen Bailu hurriedly put her hands on Shen Nanhuai's arms and shook her coquettishly, "My parents are thinking about me. It has nothing to do with business. I want to get married."
"Bai Lu, do you want to get married?" Shen Nanhuai looked stunned.
Shen Bailu nodded shyly.
Wow, it’s true that women are not allowed to stay in college!
"Dad, you have indeed misunderstood the situation. We really did not force Bai Lu. All this was Bai Lu's intention. She has a sweetheart." Qin Shu looked at her daughter with a smile.
Shen Nanhuai: "Oh? Whose boy is he from?"
"Bai Lu's sweetheart, don't be too familiar with her."
Shen Guangjing smiled and said, "It's Ruxi, dad."
Shen Jingjue chewed slowly and slowly, his peach blossom eyes dimmed, but his expression remained silent.
"Ruxi? Huo Ruxi? Brother Huo?!" Shen Nanhuai stared and confirmed again and again.
Qin Shu: "Yes, dad, it's Young Master Huo."
Bang——!
At this moment, an out-of-place sound came, and everyone followed it.
Shen Chulu was distracted, her hands trembled, and her chopsticks fell to the ground!
This is extremely impolite behavior in the Shen family, which is pampered and has strict etiquette.
"Yes, sorry!"
Shen Chulu's face turned pale, and she wanted to pick it up in a panic, but Shen Jingjue had already leaned down and helped her pick up the chopsticks.
"It doesn't matter, let's change to another pair." He smiled gently at the little girl to ease her embarrassment.
"Thank you...thank you, second brother..." Shen Chulu lowered her head and whispered.
Chen Bai's gloomy eyes turned slightly and glanced at her bloodless face. The corners of her lips slowly raised, raising a proud yet contemptuous sneer.
