MTL - Dressed As a Body Double Slag a and His Aunt-Chapter 92
After entering the mall, Shu Jin found that those people hadn't followed, and she was slightly relieved.
She didn't let her guard down, though.
Ye's shopping mall is divided into seven floors, and the higher you go, the more you need a corresponding identity, but at the same time, the security system above is also more complete.
Shu Jin walked up without hesitation.
Although there was no danger, Shu Jin didn't know that her every move was under the surveillance placed everywhere in the shopping mall.
In the monitoring room of the shopping mall, the store manager carefully watched Shu Jin walking up the screen.
Then I saw her take out Ye's global membership card from her bag, and swiped the floor directly to the seventh floor.
manager:!
Good guy, the person the boss told her to stare at turned out to be the most senior member of their store!
The manager was extremely surprised.
At this moment, the door of the monitoring room was pushed open, and Zhou Hong arrived.
"Boss, the girl you asked to follow is our company's top VIP!" The manager said quickly.
Zhou Hong frowned, "Did you check her membership information?"
That girl is very young, in her early 20s, is she the top of the company?
"I checked, it is bound to the card of Mr. Shen of EA Group."
Shen Yilan's card?
Zhou Hong nodded, "The monitor is watching, to protect her safety."
Speaking of Shen Yilan. It's been a while since I returned home.
It seems that the phone number has been changed.
"Okay boss, she went to the seventh floor. I'll tell the security on the seventh floor to pay attention." The manager called up the surveillance camera near the elevator on the seventh floor, and soon, Shu Jin's whole body was clearly reflected on the computer screen superior.
Zhou Hong: "Yes."
As soon as she finished answering, her gaze flickered across the computer screen.
Then pause, and then the whole person froze.
Two seconds later, Zhou Hong said: "...Zoom in."
manager:?
Zhou Hong stared at the screen tightly, afraid of missing something. Years of calmness and leanness seemed to have completely collapsed at this moment. Zhou Hong's tone was urgent: "Enlarge the screen!"
There was chaos in my mind.
Not wrong...
Not wrong at all!
The girl in the surveillance has a face that is 70% similar to Wen Yi! She has almost the same appearance as her long-lost wife!
The manager didn't know why the boss suddenly became agitated, and quickly zoomed in on the screen with a shake of his hands.
But the enlarged picture is not so clear.
Afraid that the boss would blame him, the manager wanted to explain something, but Zhou Hong had already rushed out first!
…
The elevator goes up floor by floor.
Finally stopped on the seventh floor.
Zhou Hong stepped out of the elevator and looked around, she was looking for that girl!
Due to the discounts during the commodity festival, there are a lot of people in the shopping mall today, and even the seventh floor, which is usually hardly crowded, has many more people.
But this can't stop Zhou Hong.
She must see her! Make sure to find her and see that face for yourself!
"Dear guest, today is Ye's product festival, maybe you can take a look at the new customizations in this issue. You are very beautiful, and they must be very suitable for you."
"Sorry, I just came here to take a break. You can go and entertain other guests." The slightly reserved female voice said crisply.
Hearing the guest's reply, the waiter still maintained a gentle smile: "Okay, then you rest, I'll ask someone to bring you a glass of water."
"Thank you."
Zhou Hong followed the sound and turned her head, and what she saw was the face that resembled her dead wife.
She sat on a chair in the lounge area and smiled sincerely at the waiter.
At that moment, Zhou Hong's heart almost burst.
She knew it wasn't Wen Yi.
Wen Yi's voice was not like this. For more than 20 years, she has repeatedly listened to the audio left by Wen Yi, and she will never forget that voice.
But she and Wen Yi still have a daughter!
…
"It's the first time I've heard someone say that they came to the seventh floor to rest."
"She seems to have been sitting there since she came."
"really weird!"
Oga with a few companions spotted the beautiful Shu Jin in the corner, and taunted unwillingly.
"But to be able to come to the seventh floor, she must be a rich woman, right? Let's stop talking about it." A timid oga reminded in a low voice.
"She looks like that, isn't it strange to have a patron?" Oga, who was the oldest and most well-dressed among them, sneered.
"And it's a foreigner!"
"Mrs. Smith, don't be angry with her, let's go and see the clothes?" Some of them smoothed things over.
"Yeah, there's no need for this kind of person..."
"That's my guest." The stern voice interrupted the conversation of the ladies and gentlemen.
Everyone raised their heads, and many of them did not recognize her.
But that Mrs. Smith's pupils shrank, and she said carefully: "So it's Mr. Zhou. I often hear my husband mention you."
"Mrs. Smith, you are very rude to my guests." Zhou Hong's gaze was like a falcon, piercing the lady's heart, "You are very rude to my guests."
This Mrs. Smith also relied on her husband's blessing to obtain the qualification of Ye, and what's shameful is that she is the top mistress.
Mrs. Smith smiled awkwardly: "I'm so sorry, we didn't know she was your guest."
Zhou Hong didn't like her at all, "The seventh floor of Ye's store only serves real ladies and wives. You don't seem to be qualified."
Mrs. Smith, who was still arrogant just now, suddenly changed her face, "Mr. Zhou?!"
Zhou Hong didn't care how she changed her face, she turned around and left.
She wants to disqualify these women.
She has no shortage of turnover, but she doesn't want to hear the girl being slandered.
…
Shu Jin didn't notice any of this.
She was sitting on a chair and took out her mobile phone to send a message to Shen Yilan. I wanted to talk to Shen Yilan about what happened today, but I was afraid that she would be worried.
Just when Shu Jin frowned in confusion.
"Your water."
A hoarse voice came from above his head.
Shu Jin raised her eyes, and the moment she saw someone, she was also dazed.
She had never seen the person in front of her, but she knew him.
Shu Jin: "...Thank you."
"Can I have a seat with you?" The woman's face is not as shrewd and cold as Shu Jin imagined. When Shu Jin saw her face, the first thing she thought was that she was pretty, and then her eyes fell on the wrinkles at the corners of the woman's eyes. .
This Alpha is over forty years old.
Shu Jin took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Yes, please sit down."
Shu Jin was mentally prepared for being approached. But I didn't expect that it would be in such a sudden situation.
Zhou Hong found that Shu Jin was not very repulsive to her, she was a little puzzled, and felt a little relieved.
But apart from being relieved, he didn't know how to talk to this girl.
Many questions lingered in her mind, but she didn't know how to start it. And this is a store, not an appropriate place to talk.
"May I know your name?" In the end, Zhou Hong couldn't help breaking the silence.
She desperately wanted to know everything about this girl.
Will she be her and Wen Yi's child? If not, how to explain this face? If so, how did she get here for more than 20 years?
For some reason, Shu Jin could feel the tension of the woman sitting opposite.
The other party seemed more nervous than her.
Thinking of this, she seemed to relax a little, and Shu Jin showed a faint smile: "My name is Shu Jin. Comfortable Shu, Jin Yu's Jin."
"Shu Jin..." Zhou Hong stared blankly at the dimples on her cheeks, then nodded, "What a good name."
"My surname is Zhou, Zhou Hong."
Shu Jin nodded: "President Zhou, I know."
Zhou Hong: "Do you know me?"
Shu Jin paused, then smiled and said, "I know Shen Yilan. She said that you are friends."
Zhou Hong was startled, then nodded, "Indeed, we are friends. She asked me to take care of you. During this time in Country Y, if you need my help, just ask."
"By the way...today is Ye's product festival, and all products are 20% off. You are Shen Yilan's friend, tell me what you like, and I will give it to you."
Shen Yilan asked her to take care of him? Shu Jin paused in her heart, knowing that the woman in front of her was lying.
But Shu Jin didn't poke it, just said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Zhou. I just came in to rest for a while."
Regarding the woman in front of her, Shu Jin actually had an indescribable feeling.
Zhou Hong is Shen Yilan's friend, and for the sake of his late wife and daughter, he hasn't remarried for more than 20 years. He is a real lover. Just with these two items, it is difficult for Shu Jin to have any bad feelings towards her.
What's more... there is a blood relationship between them.
"You look very similar to my old friend...Can you tell me...your parents?" Zhou Hong couldn't hold back in the end, even though her fingers holding the bag were already turning white.
Shu Jin: "Ah... I grew up in an orphanage."
Zhou Hong's heart twitched.
Before Shu Jin could say anything, Zhou Hong had already stood up, "...Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom."
She lowered her eyes slightly, afraid of doing something inappropriate in front of the child.
Shu Jin just smiled and said, "Okay."
She didn't feel like crying right now.
It is a joy to have a family. Maybe it's the blood relationship.
Looking at the back of Zhou Hong leaving, she staggered a little. Shu Jin still convinced herself.
In fact, it's nothing to admit it.
As long as mother is willing to love her.
…
When Zhou Hong came out of the bathroom, Shu Jin had already left.
Looking at the empty rest area, Zhou Hong grabbed the waiter in disbelief and asked, "Where's the girl sitting there just now?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and quickly said respectfully: "Mr. Zhou, that lady has already left."
Zhou Hong was shocked all over.
She was actually guessing whether Shu Jin knew about their relationship...
Does leaving now mean that she has rejected herself?
Will the child who grew up in the orphanage refuse to accept her derelict mother? !
"Mr. Zhou, that lady left a message for you." Seeing that her boss was frozen on the spot, the waiter quickly said softly: "The lady said that she has other appointments today and has to leave in a hurry. Next time she will Please eat."
Zhou Hong turned her head slowly, and asked carefully: "She said, treat me to dinner next time?"
"Yes."
Zhou Hong closed her eyes and put away all her panic, "Well, I see."
It seems that before seeing Shu Jin again, she still has time to learn about her past.
First of all, you have to contact Shen Yilan.
…
Shu Jin left the mall and went to EL's studio.
An office building not far from the mall.
The address given to her by EL's studio staff is there.
After checking the appointment information with the receptionist, Shu Jin went upstairs.
The people in the studio led her to visit.
"EL is not here recently. In fact, she rarely comes here a year. I am her assistant. My name is Anna." The woman in business attire introduced herself to Shu Jin.
"Hello."
"Well, the room in front is where she puts her works. I'll take you in."
Shu Jin nodded.
Follow Anna to go forward.
…
After unlocking with a very complicated password and face verification, the door of the exhibition hall was opened.
Yes, it was an exhibition hall.
The size of an ordinary office, but there are no tables and chairs inside, but a lot of display cabinets.
"These are EL's works, you can visit them at will." Anna turned on the lights in this exhibition hall, and instantly the jewelry in the cabinet seemed to glow.
Like a regular jewelry fair, the pieces are kept in cabinets and are not allowed to be touched.
But just looking at it is enough to feast your eyes.
Shu Jin walked in from the door and started looking at the first showcase.
There are about a dozen works.
Some of them were even seen by Shu Jin on EL's social networking site. The finished product is now in front of her eyes.
Exactly as expected...no, better finished product than expected.
Shu Jin couldn't look away at all.
After only looking at a few pieces, she couldn't help asking questions in her heart—
Is EL a god? !
The things placed in this small exhibition hall are more delicate and more artistic than the famous designers she saw on the showcase last time!
Shu Jin couldn't believe it.
"These... were all done by EL alone?" Shu Jin not only sighed.
Anna smiled and said, "Actually, there is not only one designer in EL studio."
Hearing what she said, Shu Jin heaved a sigh of relief.
Yes, there are many designers in a general studio. It's just that the primary and secondary are different.
"But the works in this exhibition hall are all the works of EL alone."
Shu Jin:? !
"EL studio was established four months ago, and there are currently eight designers." Anna introduced to her, "But EL's works are special, not for sale, and all of them are placed here."
"EL's work is really amazing, isn't it?" Anna said to her with a smile.
Shu Jin nodded, "It's hard to imagine that these are all made by her alone."
She never thought of EL as a young man.
No matter in terms of experience or works, what Shu Jin sees in EL is only sophistication.
She seemed to have been in this business for many years.
Talented, yet honed.
It is the current her, impossible to catch up with.
Shu Jin sighed and continued to read.
This time, Anna didn't make a sound, but stood at the door waiting for her.
While watching, Shu Jin felt that the trip was worthwhile.
After admiring a piece of work again, she walked forward, but her eyes accidentally swept to an empty exhibition mat.
The above works, missing?
Shu Jin was surprised, but looking around the mat, there were indeed no works.
"Ah, that. It's on loan for an exhibition." Anna said with a smile, "EL's works are occasionally loaned out. You know, they all look like works of art."
Shu Jin nodded solemnly.
Her little spider earrings were only possible to see because of the exhibition.
Shu Jin looked back.
Just as I was about to skip the empty mat, I accidentally discovered the nameplate below—
【Work: 'Swan'】
【Author: EL】
Shu Jin froze for a moment.
swan…
She has only seen one work with the name 'Swan'.
She suddenly thought of something, and asked Anna uncertainly: "Excuse me, which exhibition was this work sent to? I want to know."
Anna was taken aback for a moment, and then said falteringly: "I don't remember either, maybe I have to check to find out."
"Then please check for me."
Anna smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, the colleague responsible for managing these matters on display is not here today."
Shu Jin paused, and didn't force her, she just said, "Then can I see the photos?"
The works will be imaged and placed in the database.
For works of the level of EL, there must be photos stored in the studio.
Anna evaded, "Sorry..."
She repeatedly evaded, but Shu Jin could only smile and say, "It's okay, I'm just too curious."
Anna smiled and said nothing.
Shu Jin continued to look at other exhibits.
But the mentality is completely different.
There was a vague guess in her heart. Although she was not sure, it did not prevent her from looking at these works with a skeptical attitude.
Shen Yilan taught her that works from the same designer may have completely different design styles, but there are traces to follow in production.
As long as you have good eyesight, you are sure to spot similarities.
…
Finally, Shu Jin walked out of the office building.
She looked to the sky, it was sunny.
But she was deeply shocked in her heart.
She finally came to EL's studio as she wished and saw her work.
But what's unbelievable is that...
She found out that the stunning white swan brooch that appeared in the EA domestic design competition was very likely to be the work of EL.
EL going to be the shooter for Xuanxuan? !
Shu Jin couldn't imagine.
Xuanxuan why?
EL is why?
Shu Jin turned on the phone, but the interface stopped on EL's personal homepage, and she never clicked on the 'Private Message' button.
Xuanxuan, design competition, EL.
Taken together, these elements seem unrelated.
But what if something else is added?
She has never seen the finished products in EL's studio anywhere else. But that kind of familiar craftsmanship, gem cutting skills...those very thin things, she has seen thousands of times—
In Shen Yilan's workshop.
Those were all things that Shen Yilan had given her.
So, adding "Shen Yilan" to those elements, isn't everything still clear?
Shu Jin held the phone and sighed.
Send Shen Yilan a message.
After sending, she didn't expect the other party's reply, but directly took a taxi and went back to the academy.
…
It was already two hours later when Shen Yilan received the message from Shu Jin.
The flight lands in country Y.
After finishing her work, she was finally able to come to Country Y when she was free.
As soon as the plane landed, Shen Yilan turned on his phone.
But when she saw a few messages received on her mobile phone, she fell silent.
【I went to EL's studio today】
Shen Yilan: ...
There is no preceding and no following.
This is, eerie calm.
