Outside the bustling mansion, two beautiful young women in evening gowns were walking hand in hand, chatting as they headed toward the banquet hall.
"I heard that Mr. He spent a lot of money to invite a world-class pastry chef today to specially make a unique birthday cake for Mr. He," a girl with an oval face said.
"Really?" Another girl with an oval face looked curious. "I wonder what cakes made by the world's top pastry chefs taste like. It seems like I'm in for a treat today."
"Pfft~~"
The girl with the oval face chuckled softly, shook her head, and sighed, "You... all you know is eating. You're a bit like that legendary eldest daughter of the Chen family."
The girl with the oval face waved her hand, "I can't compare to that Miss Chen. She's a dragon in the sky, while I'm just a mudfish in the river."
As the two were talking, they arrived at the banquet hall, where they found it unusually quiet.
In the center of the banquet hall stood a birthday cake that resembled a tower.
Rose, who appeared here for some unknown reason, took out a cold object from her bosom and placed it on the forehead of the young master He, whom the two young girls had just mentioned.
"Who are you?!" Young Master He's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of fear in it.
It's really hard to stay calm when this cold object is pressed against your forehead.
He should have known better than to flirt with that hot woman.
"Hmph." Rose snorted coldly, about to speak.
An aged voice rang out as the situation on the field began to spiral out of control, "Rose, why are you making things difficult for my grandson?"
The main character of today's banquet, He Hongsheng, arrived at the banquet hall at some unknown time.
"You can tell me if there's anything you need."
"I'm just here to pick someone up," Rose replied calmly.
He Hongsheng was surprised. Who was so important that this old lady's confidant would come all the way here to pick her up? He then replied to Rose very decisively.
"You can take whoever you want; I guarantee no one here will stop you."
"You're smart to know your place." Rose retracted her cold truth and approached the flaxen-haired pastry chef who was standing next to the large cake, watching the scene with a curious expression.
She adopted a gentler tone than she had used with He Hongsheng, and respectfully said, "Master, could you please come with us?"
"..." The pastry chef's smile vanished, and her expression gradually stiffened.
She opened her mouth, as if to refuse this inexplicable invitation, but after her gaze swept over the bulging breasts on the rose that held 'truth', she kept her mouth tightly shut.
In the end, they succumbed to this great truth.
…………
Let's return our perspective to Hangzhou.
The mayor's office is located inside the government office building.
After a busy day, Xiao Chuchu leaned back in her chair and sighed sincerely.
"It's great that the Chen family and the Yun Group have stopped their undercurrents and started cooperating for mutual benefit."
Bang!
No sooner had Xiao Chuchu finished speaking than her secretary, Liu Xu, suddenly pushed open the door and hurriedly walked in.
“Mayor, I just received a report from an informant that someone saw Rose take a flight to Hong Kong, then transfer to the Chen family’s private jet and disappear without a trace.”
"Rose? You mean the one who's always been by Miss Chen's side?" Xiao Chuchu recalled information about Rose.
"Yes," Liu Xu nodded.
"..." Xiao Chuchu felt an uncontrollable unease rising in her heart. Was the Chen family going to cause trouble?
After a moment's thought, she asked Liu Xu, "Is there any other intelligence? For example, is the Chen family planning to target anyone?"
Liu Xu shook her head, then added softly, "Mayor, although I don't know exactly what Rose is up to, if the Chen family really intends to target someone, then the Yun Group and the Ning family are the only targets in Hangzhou. We'd better be prepared for the worst."
Xiao Chuchu nodded upon hearing this, as she had the same thought.
She really should have made more preparations to avoid the situation in Hangzhou, which had just stabilized, from becoming violently turbulent again.
It seems she doesn't have any effective solutions.
She can't exactly run up to you and say, "You're all Zhou You's girlfriends, you're all family, please stop fighting!"
Putting aside whether they would abandon the 'huge' benefits she imagined for the sake of their children's personal feelings, the fact that a little kid in their eyes suddenly appeared and said something that was considered a secret would definitely make them curious about her identity.
At that point, the fact that she is Zhou You's godmother will probably be impossible to keep secret.
316. My heart is filled with joy.
As time passed, night fell quickly over Hangzhou and gradually deepened.
After a delightful evening party, the group went their separate ways.
Chen Tangtang returned to the Huancheng Hotel and went to the hotel's kitchen, which was still piled high with chocolate-making materials, just like before.
The only difference from last time was that there was an extra woman with flaxen hair standing in the middle of the kitchen, looking nervous.
She was muttering to herself in some unknown language.
"Are you the pastry chef that Rose found?" Chen Tangtang asked with a curious expression in fluent English.
"Well……"
The female pastry chef stole a glance at Rose, who was acting like a mouse encountering a cat after Chen Tangtang came over. She still remembered Rose's fierce appearance before.
And Chen Tangtang, who can make Rose so 'fearful', must be an even more vicious and ruthless being.
"Aren't you a pastry chef?" Chen Tangtang asked, a look of surprise on her face when the female pastry chef remained silent for a long time.
"?!" The female pastry chef was startled when she heard Chen Tangtang's words.
A few thoughts flashed through my mind: "You're no longer of any use," "You'll have to be disposed of," and so on.
To avoid being euthanized, she forced a smile and asked, "I'm a pastry chef. What can I do for you?"
"I want you to teach me how to make chocolate." After receiving an affirmative reply from the female pastry chef, Chen Tangtang immediately stated her request.
"Teaching you how to make chocolate is no problem at all."
The female pastry chef paused. As a pastry chef, she clearly didn't have the ability to remain calm even when faced with a collapsing mountain.
He looked like he wanted to ask something but didn't dare, afraid of offending Chen Tangtang.
"Just say what's on your mind, don't keep it to yourself," Chen Tangtang said kindly.
"Well..." The pastry chef hesitated for a moment, then asked the question that concerned her most, "...Will you let me leave once I teach you how to make chocolate?"
"Huh? Let you leave?" Chen Tangtang, unaware that the female pastry chef had been brought here by Rose in a certain sense, exclaimed in surprise.
“Young Miss, it’s like this…” Rose, who was standing next to her, explained in Chinese.
Rose quickly explained the whole story to Chen Tangtang.
"So it was Rose who scared her."
Chen Tangtang nodded, then gave the female pastry chef a gentle smile to reassure her, "Don't worry, I'll only keep you for a few days, and then I'll send you back safely."
Seeing Chen Tangtang's friendly smile, the female pastry chef hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to trust her. She rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let's get started quickly."
Chen Tangtang and the female pastry chef stood in front of the stove.
Crackle! Clang! Clang!
After a series of clanging sounds of pots and pans.
The pastry chef's expression gradually changed from something trivial to... well, it's hard to describe, but it was probably like she had seen an alien with her own eyes.
How could you put vinegar in chocolate?
"Can't you put vinegar in chocolate?" Chen Tangtang retorted confidently.
The pastry chef's face twitched. After taking a moment to calm herself down, she replied, "Of course not."
Who would put vinegar in chocolate?!
"Why?" Chen Tangtang asked, puzzled. "Sugar is a condiment, and vinegar is a condiment, so why can you put sugar in chocolate but not vinegar?"
"..."
The female pastry chef froze, speechless for a long time.
…………
The past period was marked by our busy yet stable daily routines.
Valentine's Day arrived quickly.
Yun Daidai's office is on the sixth floor of Caiyun Building.
"That means everything is done." Yun Daidai tapped her fingers a few times on the keyboard, sent the document out, and glanced at the time; it was only one o'clock in the afternoon.
She got up and walked to the window, raised one hand and rested it on the glass, quietly watching the couples walking hand in hand and side by side on the street.
In fact, Yun Mingyue had been very curious about why she had become so diligent recently, and wondered if she was up to some bad idea.
Yun Daidai murmured to herself, "I really didn't have any bad intentions this time, Mother."
If you were to say that she's been working so hard lately, secretly continuing to work until late at night even after getting home, and even dreaming about work at night, Yun Mingyue probably couldn't figure it out even if she racked her brains.
"This is the first time You has spent Valentine's Day." She can't remember why she was always unwilling to spend Valentine's Day with Zhou You in the past, and she doesn't really want to recall it.
After all, every time she recalls it, she feels deep regret.
"So I wanted him to play a little longer, even if I wasn't the one with him." This was her Valentine's Day gift to Zhou You.
Yun Daidai gave a self-deprecating laugh. To be honest, even now that everything that needed to be done had been done, she still found it hard to believe that she would do such a thing.
“Yun Daidai, you have indeed changed. You’ve changed so much that you don’t even recognize yourself anymore.”
She murmured softly, her fingers unconsciously pressing down on the glass, leaving fingerprints. "But... it's no use... who would be moved by such a small thing?"
Yun Daidai muttered to herself, her body leaning forward weakly, her forehead pressed against the window.
She clearly has an enviable family background and an enviable appearance; she is undoubtedly a favored daughter of heaven.
However, she lost what she needed most. Having never been loved since childhood, why couldn't she hold onto him?
"How stupid, you idiot, you fool..."
