"Ding——"
Xia Yao's Cartier diamond ring hit the crystal chandelier in Lu's house, reflecting the dazzling light: "Miss Chen, it's time to take off Mrs. Lu's wedding ring."
Chen Ting was using a silver fork to cut open the freshly made black mousse, and the sweet and bitter taste exploded on the tip of her tongue - she could taste that under the "determination" in this woman's eyes, there was the same viciousness when she forced her mother away ten years ago.
Everyone is waiting to see the joke.
After all, when Lu Chenzhou brought her into the Lu family three years ago, he made it clear: "You look like her."
But they don't know——
This stand-in who is always said to be "like Xia Yao" can taste how much sea salt Lu Chenzhou should add to each piece of customized cake to suppress his anxiety when he suffers from PTSD; he can use a "Sweet Pet Series" dessert marketing plan at the board of directors to make Lu's stock price soar by 20%; and he can blur the memory of the man with the mist of hot cocoa in the middle of the night when the man is shaking while clutching Xia Yao's old photo: "Mr. Lu, have you ever tasted real sweetness?"
Until Xia Yao came back with tears of "It was my family that forced me to leave back then", until Xia's new drug research and development suddenly stalled, and Lu's merger and acquisition case became full of complications——
Chen Ting licked the icing off her fingertips and pushed the newly made "Thorn and Rose" cake in front of Xia Yao: "Try it?
This is what Mr. Lu said this morning, "It tastes more appetizing than ten years ago." "
