The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable

What did she do wrong to have such a cruel mother?

Perhaps, even though Shu Xinyu spoke ruthlessly, she still regretted it in her heart. Otherwise, why would he keep the photo of her when she was born?

Qiao Mu shook her head and stopped herself from continuing to think about it. She did not want to leave herself with a sliver of hope and then be disappointed.

She no longer dared to have any expectations for her mother.

Qiao Mu took a deep breath, and her phone rang. It was a call from Ye Nuan, asking where she was and asking her to have lunch at the cafeteria.

Qiao Mu composed herself and left the bathroom.

As Qiao Mu walked toward the cafeteria, she sent Li Yan a message. “” Uncle, you can settle lunch yourself. I won’t eat with you. ”

Soon, she replied,[Where are you eating?]

” I have work in the afternoon, ” Qiao Mu said. ” I’ll eat at the restaurant in the building to save time. ”

Then, there was no response from the other side of the phone.

When Qiao Mu arrived at the dining room, Ye Nuan was already there. Qiao Mu walked over, and just as she sat down, Ji Lan was escorted into the dining room by a group of people.

This restaurant was located on the first floor of the building where the fashion show was held. It mainly provided food and drinks for the staff who were attending the fashion show. At this moment, most of the people in the restaurant were designers and models who were attending the fashion show.

Ji Lan’s identity had long been made public, so she was more popular than some big celebrities. She was the future Young Madam of the Li Corporation, and if she could curry favor with her, she would definitely benefit from it.

Therefore, those unknown models all gathered around Ji Lan. If they were on good terms with Ji Lan, a casual word from her could change a person’s worth.

When Ji Lan walked past Qiao Mu, he shot her a condescending glance. ” Designer Qiao, you’re still in the mood to eat? Shu Xinyu will be holding a press conference for Ning Tongtong tomorrow to clear her name. You’ve finally cleared your name, but I’m afraid you’ll be criticized again. ”

Qiao Mu completely ignored Ji Lan and said to Ye Nuan while eating with her head lowered, “”Last time, I treated you to a big meal. This time, I want you to treat me.”

Ye Nuan smiled. ” No problem, I’ve earned a lot. ”

Behind her, Ji Lan’s expression turned ugly. Qiao Mu was actually blatantly ignoring her!

At this moment, Qiao Mu seemed to have just noticed someone behind her. She turned to look at Ji Lan. ” Miss Ji, since when are you standing here? ” Although you’re not a professional model and your performance on the runway isn’t that good, you don’t need to come to the restaurant and practice posing.”

Ji Lan instantly lost all face.

Ji Lan was not a professional model, and his figure could not be compared to other models. If Ning Tongtong had not used Ji Lan to target Qiao Mu, she would never have been able to get on the runway.

Ye Nuan said, ” Mumu, have you noticed that every time Miss Ji goes on stage for a runway show, her clothes don’t suit her figure. It’s also because of her that every piece of clothing she wears has a particularly bad sales volume. What I find strange is that Madam Shu Xinyu actually didn’t change her? ”

Qiao Mu smiled. ” Who asked Miss Ji to have such a strong backing! ”

Ji Lan knew that Qiao Mu was mocking her, but she still raised her chin and said righteously, “”Although I have a backer, I rely on my own strength.”

At this moment, someone flattered her. ” Miss Ji has the temperament and the face. Otherwise, Young Master Li wouldn’t have been charmed by her. ”
