Yujing Villa.
Late at night, Qing Muye stood on the balcony, smoking a cigarette alone.
After Meng Jingwei finished her shower and came out of the bathroom, she saw him on the balcony. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed as she walked over in her bathrobe.
Standing beside him, she rested her head gently on his shoulder. "What are you thinking about?"
The man put his arm around her shoulders, inhaling the fragrance of her hair. It seemed to have a powerful magic, instantly dispelling his worries.
"Looking at the stars." He stubbed out his cigarette and affectionately ruffled Meng Jingwei's hair. "Let Mom and Dad stay here a while longer. You miss him, don't you?"
"Of course, I have no problem with it, but I worry they won't be used to it here." Meng Jingwei looked up at the stars in the night sky, her voice filled with melancholy. "Shi Ran is very self-conscious because of her disfigurement. When my parents came today, she stayed in the villa behind, unwilling to come and meet my parents. Tang Si has also been staying with her. I think we need to give Shi Ran more space."
"Whatever you want to arrange, I'll listen to you." Qing Muye had no objections.
"Shi Ran and my parents are not the issue, the important thing is..." She withdrew her gaze, looking at Qing Muye, and sighed deeply. "What about Shen Liannuo? She came from the Hidden Tribe. In a while, she'll gradually adapt to life in Lancheng. But she can't remain idle forever, can she? If she doesn't find something to do, something will happen sooner or later."
Shen Liannuo was indeed a hot potato. Someone from the Hidden Tribe. Although some aspects of the Hidden Tribe or their living habits were similar to Lancheng, there was still a certain gap and difference overall.
Not to mention that she was the young mistress of the Hidden Tribe, accustomed to a life of luxury and being waited on. If she were to start from the bottom, it would be impossible.
"I have a company. How about letting her learn to manage it?" Qing Muye embraced Meng Jingwei, resting his chin on her head. "Shen Liannuo saved me, and she saved you. She's our benefactor. We must not neglect her."
This was just one of the reasons. Another was that Shen Liannuo was the biological sister of He Kayi. He might have future cooperation with the Hidden Tribe, so he couldn't treat Shen Liannuo poorly.
"Which company?" Meng Jingwei asked.
Qing Muye replied, "Yaoyao Cosmetics."
"Isn't that Shu Yao's company?"
"You introduced Shu Yao and me back then. I invested in her company and found her to have a good business acumen. So, I invested in her company and eventually became the largest shareholder."
"That would be fine too." Meng Jingwei seemed to have no better solution. "Then, after she gets familiar with life here, let Song Jun guide her in business. Once she's fully capable, hand over the management to her entirely. But the shares and dividends that should go to Shu Yao must not be less."
"Naturally."
Qing Muye knew Meng Jingwei felt sorry for Shu Yao.
After all, Shu Yao used to be from a well-to-do family. It was precisely because of her unsavory videos that became a handle that Anthony repeatedly threatened Shu Yao's father, Shu Huaxiong, leading to the Shu family's eventual bankruptcy.
This cosmetics company was probably the Shu family's last asset, and Qing Muye would never embezzle it.
"In a few days, Han Junyan and Xiao Cheng should be back, right?"
After discussing Shen Liannuo's matter, Meng Jingwei changed the subject, her brow furrowed with worry. "That day at the Hidden Tribe's royal palace, did Han Junyan and the others discover the truth about Anthony's death? If they know the truth, will it pose a threat to us?"
Although Meng Jingwei recalled her past with Han Junyan, that was all in the past.
Who could guarantee that Han Junyan wouldn't switch sides?
