At this moment, Qiao An'an looked at the email and the text message, and her eyes changed.

She will not compromise, no matter who the other party is.

Qiao An'an did not reply to the email, but she could not leave it unfinished.

Su Anwei said with heartache, "An'an, let's go find the supervisor."

Qiao An'an shook her head and said firmly, "The fact that this email was sent means that the supervisor knows about it, so going there won't make a difference."

She took a deep breath, smiled, looked at Su Anwei, and said, "Sister Anwei, thank you. I think this is also a time when the supervisor wants to test my abilities."

At that moment, when Lu Zhiyao arrived at the Lu family home, she saw her grandmother and aunt sitting in the living room, talking about something exciting.

She tiptoed closer and heard her grandmother, Qin Nian, say excitedly,

"That little girl is really easy to handle. Her stubbornness and the coldness in her eyes when she gets serious are just like my son. They're a perfect match, a perfect match."

"That's right, I took a liking to that little girl the moment I saw her that night."

Lu Zhiyao raised an eyebrow.

Which family's daughter did they choose to be her stepmother?

Judging from their satisfied expressions, the other party must be quite good.

But it was no use for them to have their eyes on him. She remembered that a few days ago her grandmother had taken a liking to someone and was very satisfied with him, but then she turned around and sent him to her father's bed.

As a result, her father simply wrapped her in a blanket and threw her out the door, blanket and all.

Lu Zhiyao cleared her throat. "Grandma, Auntie, whose daughter have you taken a fancy to?"

The two were startled by her.

Qin Nian turned her head to look at her, "You brat, you almost scared me to death!"

Qin Huiyu smiled. "Yaoyao's back?"

Lu Zhiyao walked over, looked at them, and smiled. "Don't change the subject. I heard everything you just said. Which family's member have you taken a fancy to?"

Qin Nian waved her hand, "Anyway, she's your stepmother. Your father has taken a fancy to a little girl. I went to meet her, and she seems nice."

Qin Huiyu sighed and rubbed her forehead.

Why did her sister have to tell everyone about this?

She promised to keep it a secret...

If this girl really asks her dad, what would happen if that kid found out?

Lu Zhiyao frowned upon hearing this.

"My dad has someone he likes? How come I didn't know?"

Who is her father? He's a figure at the very top of the pyramid. Over the years, even his assistants have been women, and strange men of the opposite sex don't want to get close to him.

How could she suddenly find a stepmother?

Suddenly, the thought of wanting Qiao An'an to be her stepmother popped into her mind again.

Lu Zhiyao shivered again.

No, absolutely not.

I can't hold my best friend back. Even though my best friend has become a stepmother, there's definitely no conflict between us.

But her dad hasn't used this function for so many years, what if it breaks down?

Qin Huiyu sighed, "We just found out about this too, but the important thing now is that we have to help your dad win her over."

"Chasing someone?" Lu Zhiyao's lips twitched.

Are these two serious?

Does her dad know?

No, she can't let them harm her own father!

No matter who the other party is, they have to get past her first.

But who exactly did her father fancy? How come she has no idea?

Qin Nian and Qin Huiyu both smiled when they saw her.

Lu Zhiyao felt uneasy at their laughter. "You guys are a little scary."

They laughed again and said in unison, "There's a big surprise waiting for you later."

Lu Zhiyao chuckled twice. "Are you sure it wasn't a fright?"

Just a couple of days ago, I showed her a bunch of photos and asked her to choose a mom for herself.

Today I told her again that I should help my dad pursue the person he likes...

The more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes.

No, she had to find out who her father actually liked.

Suddenly, she remembered something, quickly took out her phone, and made a call.

"Ask An'an, she'll definitely know. An'an lives with her dad."

Qiao An'an was packing her things; she had to go back to the villa to pack today.

As soon as she returned to the villa and opened the door, she received a message from Lu Yanzhi.

"Sweetie, I have a business dinner and I'll be back late. You go to sleep first."

Qiao An'an replied with a "Okay".

She changed her shoes, and her phone rang again; this time it was Lu Zhiyao.

She answered the phone, "Yao Yao."

"An'an!" Lu Zhiyao's voice was urgent, "I need to speak to you urgently."

"What's wrong?" Qiao An'an felt a little guilty, afraid that her secret would be discovered.

"Did my dad bring anyone home? Did he often stare at his phone or something?" Lu Zhiyao lowered her voice.

Qiao An'an's heart sank; her voice sounded off.

"No... I don't think so."

Lu Zhiyao frowned. "Have you noticed that my dad has someone he likes?"

Qiao An'an's heart jumped into her throat, wondering if they had discovered something and that's why they called to ask.

Before she could answer, Lu Zhiyao said, "My grandma and my aunt said that my dad has someone he likes. They said that person is nice and a good match for my dad. They want her to be my stepmother."

My dad has someone he likes, and I had no idea! I just want to know what kind of person that is, that my dad would take a liking to them…”

While listening to Lu Zhiyao's rambling, he cautiously responded.

"Huh?...Really?"

Qiao An'an's mind was filled with images of Lu Yan kneeling down to confess his love, making breakfast for her, and peeling shrimp for her...

But now Lu Zhiyao's words made her heart sink to the bottom.

So everything he said was a lie?

He was gentle with her, saying ambiguous things and doing ambiguous things, but he already had someone he liked in his heart, and even asked his elders to help him pursue that person.

Are they getting married?

What about her?

What is she?

Suddenly, all the grievances and pressures from work and life came rushing in.

Qiao An'an's tears fell instantly.

This morning he said he would make her breakfast every day from now on.

She actually believed it.

She's really stupid.

In the end, it was all her own stupidity that led her to believe that a domineering CEO would treat her differently.

She was so foolish as to be greedy for the tenderness he gave her; she even thought that maybe it would be nice if they were really together.

In retrospect, she was the one who was ridiculous.

But thinking about it, things are probably for the best now; it's a timely way to cut losses.

But deep down, she knew that he loved someone else, and yet it felt like a giant hand was gripping her heart, making it hard to even breathe.

I've never felt this bad even when I broke up with Jiang Chen.

"An'an, what's wrong?" Lu Zhiyao noticed that Qiao An'an hadn't spoken and asked in confusion.

"An'an, keep an eye out for me lately and find out who my dad likes. If he wants to be my stepmother, he'll have to get through to me first..."

Qiao An'an didn't hear a single word that followed.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"I understand, Yao Yao. I still have some things to finish, so I'll hang up now. I'll call you if anything comes up."

Upon hearing that she had important business to attend to, Lu Zhiyao instructed, "An'an, then I'll leave this matter to you."

"good!"

After Qiao An'an finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Her heart was in turmoil.
