Chapter 181

Sheng Man usually lived in another villa in Beijing to make it convenient for her work, but she would occasionally come back to Shengzhai to meet Nie Jiqing and the family.

Sheng Man lost her mother when she was a child. Seeing that she also lost her daughter, Sheng Lian sent Sheng Man to her.

Nie Jiqing felt sorry for Sheng Man’s loss of maternal love since she was a child, and naturally took more care of her.

She ended up taking Sheng Man as the Sheng family’s adopted daughter, because Sheng Man was such a sweet-talker and Sheng Lian encouraged her to.

Nie Jiqing sat on the sofa, looking at today’s newspaper. She spotted a missing person notice on it and her mood began to worsen without her knowing.

Housekeeper saw that Nie Jiqing seemed to be in a bad mood and immediately poured her a cup of tea.

“Madam, the Young Miss’ program is airing on TV right now. If you want to watch it, I’ll turn on the TV for you.”

Nie Jiqing came to her senses when she heard the voice of the housekeeper. She sighed in her heart and put the newspaper aside: “Oh really, then you can turn on the TV.”

Housekeeper turned on the TV and changed the channel. When they arrived on the channel, a scene where Sheng Man was participating in “Perfect Couple” was playing.

After setting up the TV, the housekeeper put the remote control on the table in front of Nie Jiqing, turned around and left.

Nie Jiqing watched it boredly. The scene of choosing the partner was currently being played. Gu Ren had chosen Ye Zhi while Sheng Man and Song Lie ended up as partners.

Nie Jiqing had watched Sheng Man grow up. She could tell at a single glance that Sheng Man was interested in Gu Ren, and she could even feel Sheng Man’s anger through the screen.

However, Nie Jiqing’s eyes weren’t exactly focused on Sheng Man this time, but instead on Ye Zhi, who was standing next to her.

Nie Jiqing frowned slightly. When the camera zoomed in and gave Ye Zhi a close-up, she stared straight at Ye Zhi.

Whether it was from Ye Zhi’s facial features, temperament, or other aspects, Nie Jiqing always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity towards her.

Nie Jiqing remembered the girl she saw in California when she was sitting in the Mexican restaurant for dinner and then remembered the girl who passed by her in Dubai.

Could it be her?

As soon as Nie Jiqing saw the housekeeper coming, she asked abruptly, “What’s this girl’s name?”

The housekeeper happened to hear her daughter mention the girl’s name before: “She’s Ye Zhi. My daughter hated her before, but after watching this show, she is now a fan of hers.”

The housekeeper didn’t see the change in Nie Jiqing’s attitude, so she walked away.

When Nie Jiqing saw Ye Zhi, she thought of her daughter again. If her daughter hadn’t been lost, she would be the same age.

If she found the person who abducted her daughter, she would not show any mercy and let that person know what real pain was.

…

Chaumet was looking for a brand ambassador. According to their requirements, they paid more attention to whether a person’s temperament was a suitable match with their brand.

They were currently approaching some female celebrities to find the most suitable person for this position, but they still hadn’t found one who was satisfactory.

Sheng Man’s management team saw the opportunity. After consulting with Sheng Man, they began to strive hard to obtain the brand ambassador position of Chaumet.

Chaumet was a top class brand for jewelry. If Sheng Man managed to get hold of this opportunity, her worth would increase by a lot.
