"The above are all the costumes that Spencer presented to you. You can ask questions." Mu Baiying stood on the stage of Spencer's men's autumn launch conference. She was wearing an elegant and well-fitting gray suit, smiling confidently and generously.

"The above are all the costumes that Spencer presented to you. You can ask questions." Mu Baiying stood on the stage of Spencer's men's autumn launch conference. She was wearing an elegant and well-fitting gray suit, smiling confidently and generously.

The reporters under the T stage enthusiastically raised their hands, and Mu Baiying clicked on one. The reporter said: "Ms. Bernice, I want to ask you about the tweet you posted a week ago. You wrote," he read word by word while looking down at the phone screen. , "[The Chinese market has always been the market that Spencer Group pays the most attention to and is looking forward to developing.] Does this mean that Spencer's new move in China is your new direction, and you plan to enter the women's fashion industry?"

"This is a good question." Mu Baiying said, "Women's fashion is the direction that Spencer Group will explore in the next five years. The transformation in China is a fresh attempt for us. Lance will bring you new ideas and surprises."

"Hello." A reporter raised his hand, "Excuse me, is Lance...?"

"Lance Spencer, my son." Bernice said, "He is shy and doesn't often appear in the spotlight. I will let everyone know him when I have the opportunity. Now we are looking forward to the performance in China."

With the end of the Spencer men's autumn conference, various news agencies gave interpretations of Mu Baiying's speech before the curtain call from various angles. Some said that Mu Baiying made it clear that he was close to China, and some said that the Spencer Group's inheritance rights There is a comeback, and some say that Spencer has exhausted his talents in the fashion direction and has been completely reduced to a vulgar financial giant.

"Does this mean that my brother is going back to London soon?" Anna stepped into the office with a newspaper in hand, "I miss him so much."

"It's just to create momentum for future cooperation." Mu Baiying shook open the newspaper, propped her chin with one hand, and flipped a page casually, pretending to casually reveal the style of ancient and clumsy earrings.

"Oh." Anna approached Mu Baiying and asked, "A gift from Lance?"

"Yes." Mu Baiying raised the corners of her lips and said with a smile, "I told him not to buy it, but it will be on my desk the next day."

Anna couldn't see Mu Baiying's showing off, she shrugged: "I'm not envious, Lance has given me too many things."

Mu Baiying glanced at her, and said in a cold tone: "Are you out of work today? Do you want me to give you some extra?"

"No, no, I'll go to work now." Anna ran out of the office with small steps.

Mu Baiying turned on the laptop and logged into the online meeting. Mu Xu and Ming Yuefeng appeared on the screen. Mu Baiying said, "Good morning, Xiao Xu."

"Good morning, Mom." Mu Xu said, "I saw the video of the autumn conference, and the design is very interesting."

"What kind of design do you know?" Mu Baiying said.

"I understand." Ming Yuefeng raised his hand, "I think the design style inherits the classics from the past."

"Classic means conservative." Mu Baiying said, "I don't think this is a compliment."

"It seems that you are not satisfied with the autumn conference." Mu Xu said.

"The Times is right, Spencer has lost his fashion ideal." Mu Baiying said, "Spencer is now an ordinary financial group, and the men's clothing business line is not very good among dozens of business lines. An eye-catching piece."

"The relationship between bread and dreams has always been very difficult to measure." Mu Xu said, "In my opinion, Spencer's goal from the beginning is very clear, and bread is dreams."

"How do you say it?" Mu Baiying asked.

"The Spencer Group started when you chose Owen Spencer. You took a fancy to Owen's declining title and sluggish clothing factory." Mu Xu said, "Owen has no fashion ideals, he just wants to earn enough money to support his family. Donna and Anna, you don't have fashion ideals either, you just want to save enough capital for me to go back to China to settle accounts with Chi Yan."

"Chi Yan is a bastard." Mu Baiying said, hearing this, Ming Yuefeng immediately stood up and left the office, he didn't want to be involved in the vortex of the struggle between aristocratic families and capital.

Mu Xu picked up the glass, which was full of milk. He took a sip of the milky white liquid and said, "I really want to hear your opinion on Chi Yan."

Mu Baiying thought for a moment, and said: "Chi Yan is a simple person. He only has career and family in his eyes. If you rank these two things, family is the first, and career is second."

"In my contact, he is indeed such a person." Mu Xu said, "He cares more about the family's reputation than his family."

"How do you feel about him?" Mu Baiying asked.

"He is like a symbol to me." Mu Xu said, "I have to surpass him in order to defeat him. This is not the case now."

"Oh?" Mu Baiying held her chin with her left hand and leaned over to listen with interest.

"I don't need to compare with him. As for beating him, he is 84. I just need to survive him." Mu Xu said.

"Tsk." Mu Baiying showed the same sarcastic expression as Mu Xu, "And you almost didn't live him."

"..." Mu Xu choked, and said, "I realized that the problem is not with Chi Yan or Joaquin, but with myself."

"I want to know one thing, Mom." Mu Xu looked seriously at Mu Baiying on the screen, "Why don't I remember what happened when I was a child?"

Mu Baiying looked at Mu Xu for a long time, she unconsciously stretched out her fingers to touch her son's face on the screen: "You have grown up."

"I'm 31, mother." Mu Xu said helplessly, "When will I grow up in your eyes, the day I retire?"

"If you really want to know about this, go back to London and we'll talk face to face." Mu Baiying said, "I'll invite Mr. Brown to join the chat."

Mu Xu raised his eyebrows suspiciously: "Why?"

"That's all I can say." Mu Baiying blinked, and she opened the file, "Okay, call Mingyue in, and let's start today's meeting."

"What's going on with you!" Chi You ran into the ward anxiously, and looked at Chi Yan who was lying on the hospital bed where the old god was.

"What are you arguing about?" Chi Yan scolded impatiently, "I just slipped and fell, and it will be fine in two days."

"Two days? What are you kidding?" Chi You said, "You are over 80, and your fracture will not heal in a year or so." He turned around, "Shaochen is still half a month away from the due date, I can't leave, you can really find something for me."

"Did I want to throw it?" Chi Yan said.

"Forget it, I'll call Jun Tao." Chi You said.

"Don't call him Xiaotao, Huajin's foreign investment department has just been established, and he is very busy." Chi Yan said.

"One person is not busy." Chi You walked out of the ward with his mobile phone.

Two hours later, Mu Xu stepped into the ward with a bag of strawberries. He said, "Don't get me wrong, I came here specially to laugh at you."

"I didn't expect you to care about me either." Chi Yan said.

Mu Xu put the strawberries on the bedside, and asked, "I heard from Chi You that you went to Wan'an to sweep the grave?"

"Yeah." Chi Yan said, "Look at my wife."

"It's rare to hear Jun Tao mention his grandma." Mu Xu said.

Chi Yan took out an old photo from his pocket and showed it to Mu Xu: "This is my wife, isn't she beautiful?"

In the photo, the woman's hair is neatly tied into a bun, the corners of her eyes are piled up with fine lines, her facial features are exquisite, and she still looks like the charm of her youth. She is very well dressed and holds Chi Yan's arm with a smile. imagine.

"Very beautiful." Mu Xu said, "Jun Tao's face resembles hers."

Chi Yan looked at the photo with nostalgia: "I often dream about her these days."

"I dreamed that she was reading poems to me. She always wanted to go to college, but because of the environment, she stopped studying in high school." Chi Yan said, "She likes Gibran, her favorite poem, do you know what it is? "

"What?" Mu Xu asked.

Chi Yan was caught in the memory, his eyes were calm, he said: "She often reads to me 'oaks and cypresses do not grow in each other's shade'*, but she has stayed in my shade all her life."【 "The Prophet-Marriage" Gibran]

"I thought you didn't care about your family." Mu Xu sat by the bed.

"When I was young, I didn't care, I felt that I could break through and do anything." Chi Yan said, he put away the old photos, and changed back to the original cold financial tycoon, "To succeed, you must have a trade-off. "

Mu Xu pursed his lips and was about to speak when the doctor knocked on the door: "Hello, who is Chi Yan's family?"

Mu Xu glanced at Chi Yan, stood up, and said, "I'll call Chi You over."

"No, Xiaoyou is busy with his business." Chi Yan pointed to Mu Xu and said to the doctor, "He is my family."

"What is your relationship?" asked the doctor.

"He is my granddaughter-in-law." Chi Yan said.
