Chapter 106: Hidden Needle
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Anyone who heard such mocking laughter would feel uncomfortable.
Every time Madam Lu chatted with them, she would follow them in bragging about family matters. However, while others received flattery and envy, she only received laughter and mockery.
Now that she saw Meng Chuyuan suddenly appear to help her out and even speak up for her, Madam Lu was really touched.
Meng Chuyuan felt that Madam Lu usually treated them too well, so they felt that she was easy to bully.
“Ah Ye’s wife.’
A woman with wavy short hair was wearing emerald pajamas. She was fat and had a short and thick neck. Her voice was a little sharp. “We’ve known your mother-in-law for many years. We know her better than you.”
Now that someone had taken the lead to say this, the other three noblewomen agreed unanimously.
The corners of Meng Chuyuan’s lips curled up slightly. She replied slowly, “She hangs out with you guys all day long, even if she had any real skills she wouldn’t be able to show them.”
Who didn’t know how to be sarcastic?
They all relied on their husband’s money and lived the same life. How different could they be?
What right did they have to mock Madam
Just because she was kind-hearted?
As soon as Meng Chuyuan appeared, she completely crushed the four noblewomen.
They looked embarrassed and did not know how to respond to Meng Chuyuan.
One of them bit the bullet and said , “It’s too late today. I’m a little sleepy and want to sleep. I’ll hang up first. Goodbye.”
“Juan, and Ah Ye’s wife, we’re just joking. Don’t take it to heart. I’m a little tired too. Let’s talk another day.”
After two of them hung up, the other two didn’t say anything and silently ended the video call.
Seeing the phone screen return to the chat interface, Meng Chuyuan raised her eyebrows calmly.
She had yet to make a move, but they had all run away.
Meng Chuyuan patted Madam Lu’s shoulder gently and said gently, “Mom, you don’t have to worry about what happened just now. It’s getting late. You should sleep early too.”
Just as Meng Chuyuan was about to get up and return to the bedroom, Madam Lu actually grabbed her sleeve and said to her, “Thank you for just now.”
If Meng Chuyuan had not saved her in time, she would have lost all her face.
Usually, Madam Lu wouldn’t get angry if it wasn’t too much. This time, she really couldn’t take it anymore.
“They were the ones who went overboard first. We don’t have to give them face.
If we don’t know something, we can always slowly pick it up. That’s not a flaw.”
“That makes sense.” Madam Lu suddenly understood. “I’ll go to the company tomorrow and learn some real skills. I’ll show them.”
“That’s right. You don’t have to excel, it’s fine as long as you can surpass them.”
After Meng Chuyuan settled Madam Lu’s matter, she returned to her room to apply a facial mask.
At this moment, Lu Qingye saw Meng Chuyuan’s WeChat message. He did not expect her to have given him a small suggestion. She suggested that he arrange for the employees of the clothing store to receive professional training on how to style clothes.
Lu Qingye: [Is what you said useful?]
Arranging the training was a simple matter for him, but he wanted to hear Meng Chuyuan’s thoughts.
Meng Chuyuan had just put on a facial mask and washed her hands when she saw Lu Qingye’s reply.
She looked at the message and replied: [Of course it’s useful. I went to the physical shop today to take a look. The styling of clothes in the shop was average. Even ordinary shops can achieve such a standard. Do you think customers will still choose to come to our shop when they see such a display?]
If the display fails to accentuate the allure of the clothing, it would make them seem mediocre and easily cause people to lose the desire to buy them.
Meng Chuyuan: [Letting them learn how to style clothes is not only good for the shop’s image, but it also helps them to promote better. It’s the professional persuasiveness, do you understand?]
If one relied on their own intuition to style a customer, they would not be able to be very persuasive. Resultantly, customers will also feel less incentivized to make their purchase.
Lu Qingye: [Okay, I’ll get someone to arrange for it as soon as possible.]
After receiving Meng Chuyuan’s opinion, he quickly instructed the staff to arrange a training session for them.
Lu Qingye had too many things to do every day. There were so many physical shops under the company that he could not take care of them all by himself.
Although he had many subordinates, no one had ever given him feedback on such a problem.
The third episode of the variety show recording began.
This time, they came to a town with a relatively long history and slow pace of life. The houses here retained many of their old appearances. Every tile and piece of gravel carried a lot of history.
After not seeing each other for a few days, the audience was about to cry.
Seeing that the third live-stream had officially started, the audience started spamming the comments crazily.
[Someone, call the director for me. Why did you make us wait so long? Director, do you know how we’ve been these past few days? Next time, record the episodes back to back, I’m begging you]
[Wuwuwu, I’m so touched. I can finally see my Sister Meng again.]
[Guys, a day apart from all of you feels like three autumns. How many autumns has it been now?]
The director wore a pair of sunglasses and held a small loudspeaker in his hand. There was a hint of a smile on his lips. “Friends, we meet again. Our old friend, Qi Zhen, took two days off for this episode. However, we still have our familiar friends accompanying everyone for this episode.”
“That’s right. I’m your familiar friend, Ting Jiu.”
It was not surprising that the audience did not see Qi Zhen, because he had already posted on Weibo to inform his fans the day before.
What surprised the audience was that Qi Zhen had taken two days off, but Qi Yan could actually come to film the Variety show on time.
The director: “Ting Jiu, you and Qi Yan will be in the same group for this episode.”
“No problem.” Ting Jiu quickly agreed.
In the previous episode of the variety show, Ting Jiu and Qi Yan had not interacted much. The two of them were not familiar with each other and formed a team at the last minute. They could only slowly get used to each other later.
Qi Yan looked up expressionlessly and asked curiously, “Director, can’t I form my own team?”
“You can’t.”
[Who gave her the confidence? Hahaha, she actually dared to suggest forming her own team.]
[What? My Little Jiu Jiu hasn’t even said anything. Where did this sister’s confidence come from?]
[It doesn’t matter. As long as a handsome man appears on screen, it’s the same everywhere.]
[Sister above, you’re making me laugh to death. You’re completely chasing after looks. This is- hahaha.]
[The director came out to get beaten up. It took him so long to start the broadcast. It was very tiring to wait.]
[Where’s my Sister Meng? Where’s my Young Master? Hurry, hurry, hurry.
Turn the camera quickly.]
[What’s wrong with our Ting Jiu? Why are you trying to avoid him?]
Qi Yan glanced at Ting Jiu and said coldly, “I’m not familiar with him. It’s not convenient for us to stay together.”
“This…” The director scratched his head in confusion.
Strictly speaking, there was no problem with living in separate rooms, but Qi Yan’s question inevitably made some of the audience stand on Qi Yan’s side.
Not long after, Meng Chuyuan took the initiative to ask, “Then I’ll stay with you?”
Because only she and Lu Jinsen were a brother-sister group now, and she was the only girl who could live with Qi Yan, she changed to live with Qi Yan and let Lu Jinsen and Tingjiu live in the same room..
