After inspecting the venue, Shao Linghui asked Xia Yue to go home directly.

"It's not five o'clock now." Xia Yue looked at the time, "There is still an hour before the end of work." ”

"The boss asked you to leave work early, do you still have any opinions?"

"It's not ......" Xia Yue wanted to say that she didn't want to go back to Shao's house alone, Shao Linghui's mother Jiang Yinghong was a full-time wife, and I don't know if it was a mahjong game tea game at home.

Although she is not a social phobia, she also does not want to pass by a group of strangers.

So she asked him again, "Aren't you going back?" ”

"I've got something to do."

"I can follow you."

"A man's business."

Xia Yue stopped talking, and Shao Linghui's man's affairs seemed to be inconvenient for the secretary or wife to know.

She could only obediently hitchhike back alone.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into Wang Simin.

When Xia Yue opened the door and entered the house, Wang Simin was talking and laughing with Shao's mother on the sofa in the living room, and Xia Yue could hear Jiang Yinghong praising Wang Simin for being a talented girl.

"How can you write such a wonderful love story?" Shao's mother put her hands in her heart and made a shy appearance of a girl.

Xia Yue stood at the entrance and didn't know whether to enter or not.

The workers in the house saw Xia Yue coming in and hurriedly reported to Shao's mother, "Madam, the young lady is back." ”

Shao Mu then set her eyes on the entrance, and when she saw that it was really Xia Yue, she smiled, "Are you back?" The tone of speech is a bit like the frame of the chaebol rich lady in a certain TV series.

Xia Yue hurriedly went over and responded, "Yes." "The gesture was also very respectful.

"Let me introduce you to you, this is an alumnus of Linghui University, Wang Simin, she is a celebrity in our Jiangcheng."

Wang Simin looked at Shao's mother with a smile, looking like you had won the award, but she acquiesced to Shao's mother's introduction.

"I know Miss Wang." Xia Yue said to Shao's mother, "Yesterday, Miss Wang's new book signing, Ling Hui also entrusted me to hold the show. ”

Xia Yue's eyes fell on the two books on the coffee table, and said, "I also bought a copy of Miss Wang's book of Love in the City, and I read a few chapters yesterday, and it was very well written." ”

This is not a compliment, Wang Simin's writing is really good, although the male protagonist Mo Ancheng has the shadow of Shao Linghui, but Wang Simin's pen is affectionate and single-minded.

Wang Simin heard Xia Yue say that she had read a few chapters of the new book, and she suddenly became interested and asked Xia Yue what she thought of her book.

Based on Wang Simin's disrespectful remarks about himself when they first met, Xia Yue didn't want to engage in commercial touting, and then told her a few new words.

She replied, "I've just commented on it, and it's well written." ”

"What about the content?"

To be so specific?

Xia Yue groaned for a moment, and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at, thinking my writing is funny?" Wang Simin's tone gradually deteriorated.

Xia Yue was still smiling, sat down while laughing, and then asked the workers at home to pour her a cup of tea.

She looked at Wang Simin in the posture of a hostess, and asked lightly, "Do you really want me to evaluate?" ”

Wang Simin snorted coldly, which seemed to mean that this was not talking nonsense.

Tea was delivered.

Xia Yue took a sip of the teacup, and then said, "I read a few chapters yesterday, and Ling Hui also asked me how you wrote and what you said, and I said that the male protagonist in this book is a bit like him, with the same height, the same profession, and the same family environment." ”

After she finished speaking, she put the teacup on the table and asked Wang Simin rhetorically, "Did Miss Wang use our family Linghui as the prototype when she wrote this book?" ”

Wang Simin didn't expect Xia Yue to be so keen, she was a little flustered, but after the panic, she immediately calmed down and generously admitted, "It's a bit of Ling Hui's shadow, creation comes from life, and I don't have many friends of the opposite sex around me, and Ling Hui and I have known each other for so long, and I can write easily with him as a prototype." ”

"What about the heroine, who is the prototype?" Xia Yue tilted his head when he asked this, pretending to be curious.

Wang Simin met her eyes and replied with a smile, "Of course it's Shen Xingyan, my best friend." She thought that pulling out Shen Xingyan would hit Xia Yue's sharpness.

Because when these words came out, Shao Mu showed surprise, and turned her head to observe Xia Yue's expression.

Xia Yue didn't have any change in the expression on her face, she said lightly, "Oh, Shen Xingyan, it's the other female member of your club, last time you said she went abroad, when will she come back?" ”

"What do you care about?"

"Of course you have to care, you and Shen Xingyan are both former alumni of Ling Hui, and I should care about it as Ling Hui's wife." Xia Yue looked at Wang Simin, "By the way, did you say hello to Shen Xingyan when you opened the book, you are such a good friend, you used Ling Hui as a prototype to write a romance book with her, and now that Ling Hui is married, she should be embarrassed as a single woman, right?" ”

"If I were to be embarrassed, the hero in the book is as deep as the sea for the heroine, but in reality Ling Hui is talking to another woman, which will make people feel like they are lewd."

As soon as the two words of obscenity came out, it was like a hammer that directly stunned Wang Simin, and she sat in her position and didn't know how to reply for a while.

Shao's mother saw that Wang Simin had eaten the turtle, so she quickly changed the topic, and she asked Xia Yue, "Why did you come back so early?" ”

"I accompanied Ling Hui to see the venue, and he asked me to come back directly after it was over."

"What about the Linghui people?"

"He's got other things to do."

"If he has other things, you can come back by yourself, what about Zihan's engagement, when do you plan to do it."

"I already have a preliminary plan." Xia Yue took out the first draft of the plan written in the morning from his bag and handed it to Shao's mother.

Shao Mu took it and flipped it twice, and was quite satisfied with Xia Yue's speed.

"Speed up, this engagement is a big deal, at least the venue and everything will be booked next week."

"Okay." Xia Yue stood up, "If it's okay, I'll go upstairs first." ”

Shao Mu nodded.

After Xia Yue went upstairs, Wang Simin, who had suffered a defeat, asked Shao's mother, "Zihan is getting engaged?" ”

"Yes, the parents of both sides have met, and they will be engaged in a month."

"Xia Yue is in Zhangluo?"

"Well, she wants Zhang Luo herself, maybe she wants to show it in front of Ling Hui, and I don't know if it's okay." Shao's mother deliberately said this, the purpose was naturally to comfort Wang Simin.

In the round just now, it was obvious that Xia Yue had the upper hand.

Shao's mother is not stupid, she knows Wang Simin's intention to mention Shen Xingyan, although Shao's mother doesn't like Xia Yue, but in front of outsiders, she still has to maintain Xia Yue's decency, which is also to maintain Shao Linghui's decency.

So she had to divert the subject.

But I didn't expect her words to be remembered by Wang Simin, who had a ghost in her heart.

She felt that Shao Zihan's engagement was a great opportunity for her to take the position.

"It seems that this trip to the Shao family is not without gains."
