Tang Yue from F country, just like a sponge earnestly absorbing knowledge, to her, Shen Yunfei was a stranger. June, with the blazing sun high in the sky. Peng Yufei and Tang Mingli flew together to F country. Peng Yufei came to collect design drafts and at the same time, brought the designs created by the three of them for Tang Yue. Tang Mingli’s pure concern was for Tang Yue. Every time he talked to his second brother, Tang Zhengde, Tang Zhengde couldn’t help but worry about Tang Yue abroad. Deep down, Tang Mingli was also not at ease. Although he knew Tang Yue was doing well, his mind wouldn’t settle until he had seen her with his own eyes. He was only a few years older than Tang Yue. Although she was his niece, in Tang Mingli’s heart, Tang Yue was like a sister, like a daughter, and even more, a partner. Without Tang Yue, there would be no Tang Mingli of today. "Uncle, over here." Tang Yue waved her hands joyfully, feeling exceedingly close upon seeing Tang Mingli and Peng Yufei. "Xiao Yue." Tang Mingli, seeing Tang Yue still as beautiful as before and not thin, felt reassured. "This is..." Tang Mingli’s gaze fell upon Wu Xin standing to the side. Tang Yue explained, "My friend, named Wu Xin." She didn’t dare introduce him as someone Bai Qing specifically found to protect her, otherwise her uncle might worry even more. After exchanging greetings, Tang Yue took them to a Chinese restaurant for food. She looked at Peng Yufei, who appeared somewhat restrained, and said, "Peng Yufei, no need to be polite. It’s rare that you come here." "Thank you." Peng Yufei smiled. Having grown up in a village, then moved to the county with his parents, he thought that was already quite good. Later on, they moved to Jing City, and then his father got into trouble, leaving all the family burdens on his shoulders. Even living in Jing City, Peng Yufei had no time to truly appreciate its beauty. Now that he had come to F country, he felt genuinely shocked. Completely different styles, entirely different architecture. Walking in this foreign land, Peng Yufei felt his eyes weren’t enough to take it all in. Only after returning to the apartment did Tang Mingli finally relax. The apartment looked good, with property management, and was very close to the school. "The school is nice, really big," Tang Mingli remarked, then went to his room to overcome the jet lag. Peng Yufei and Tang Mingli stayed at a hotel not far away. There was no choice; Tang Yue’s place had three rooms, but two had been combined into a small studio. The remaining one housed Wu Xin, and usually, some fabrics were stored there too, which didn’t make it seem cramped. Back at the apartment, Tang Yue took the design drafts brought by Peng Yufei and thoroughly reviewed each one. Wherever there was a flaw, she corrected it with another colored pen or made annotations. In one month, they had produced many design drafts. After examining each one and finishing, it was already the early morning. Yawning from fatigue, she placed the drafts aside, earnestly wrote a letter to Meng Siyu, and then went to bed. Meng Siyu was traveling to various places, so Tang Yue always sent her letters to the company, and from there they would be sent to wherever Meng Siyu was located. Therefore, it often took a long time to receive the letters. Even if she couldn’t get her letters on time, she got used to writing one each week. The next day, Peng Yufei and Tang Mingli had adjusted to the time difference and came over early. Hearing the noise, Tang Yue, still groggy, changed her clothes and got up, yawning. She said, "Uncle, Peng Yufei, I have plans today to go see a show. You both should come along; as clothing designers, we should watch more fashion shows." "When did you sleep last night? You look so tired," Tang Mingli said with concern. Tang Yue blinked and responded, "No, I went to bed after finishing my work." She handed the design drafts to Peng Yufei, having explained every corrected spot to him. Tang Mingli didn’t understand and thought about how Tang Yue was abroad yet still had to worry about the factory. He thought about going to buy breakfast but realized he couldn’t speak the local language. His high school English had long been forgotten, and he could only manage simple greetings with a stuttering effort. Tang Yue and Peng Yufei were having a serious conversation, so Tang Mingli didn’t interrupt them; instead, he asked Wu Xin for advice. Wu Xin took Tang Mingli to a breakfast place that Tang Yue often frequented and ordered food very efficiently. Tang Mingli admired this and thought that he needed to learn something. Even if he couldn’t learn Language F, he should at least learn some English. What if the factory grew larger and attracted foreign clients? Tang Mingli felt that he was perhaps thinking too much, but who could guarantee that Mingyue Clothing wouldn’t export or receive foreign orders? Moreover, even if the garment factory didn’t get foreign orders, knowing some English would be better than nothing if he traveled abroad in the future. "Lucy, this is my younger uncle, Tang Mingli, and this is my friend, Peng Yufei," Tang Yue introduced them in Language F to Lucy and then in Mandarin to Tang Mingli, "Uncle, Peng Yufei, this is my friend from Country F, called Lucy." Tang Mingli was completely lost with Language F, so he greeted Lucy in English. Peng Yufei also greeted her in English. Lucy’s English was exceptionally fluent. In front of Lucy, both Peng Yufei and Tang Mingli felt an enormous pressure. There were many types of fashion shows, and Tang Yue vaguely knew that Lucy must be someone with a background, but since Lucy didn’t volunteer that information, Tang Yue didn’t ask. Having Lucy represent her at every show made Tang Yue feel a bit embarrassed. By returning the favor, Tang Yue had almost become Lucy’s exclusive designer. Lucy particularly loved her designs, which delighted and made Tang Yue proud, showing that others recognized her work. "Tang Yue, what a coincidence, you’re here too." After a long time, Shen Yunfei appeared with a stunningly curvy woman. Her height, bust size, and long legs left Tang Yue amazed! "Yes," Tang Yue answered indifferently, not showing much warmth towards Shen Yunfei. "Are they also Huaxia people? Won’t you introduce us?" Shen Yunfei asked with a smile as he sized up Tang Mingli and Peng Yufei. "Xiao Yue, is this your classmate?" Tang Mingli eyed Shen Yunfei; his clothes were all branded, and the watch on his wrist looked worth several thousand. He seemed to have status, and if it weren’t for the fact that he was with a beautiful woman, Tang Mingli might have thought he was pursuing Tang Yue. "Shen Yunfei, classmate," Tang Yue replied just as she finished speaking. Shen Yunfei added, "Also a neighbor and relative." "We are not relatives," Tang Yue interrupted briskly: "The show is about to start, and we have things to do." Tang Yue walked away with Lucy and the others. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵 Tang Mingli silently asked with his eyes what was going on. Tang Yue softly explained, "Uncle, he’s related to the Xiang Family, nothing to do with me." Tang Mingli instantly understood and took another look at Shen Yunfei, saying, "Xiao Yue, that Shen Yunfei doesn’t look like a good person, stay away from him."
