Chapter 598 Going Abroad (2)
"You know that Yang Peiyun is your mother, right.""Mm... she told me... It’s just that I haven’t quite managed to accept it yet."
He adjusted her head, looking at her seriously as he spoke, "Don’t trust this woman too much."
"Wh... why?" Qiao Mo instinctively asked.
She finally had a mother, so why was he telling her not to trust her?
Fu Nancheng felt a bit irritated, recalling the scenes of meeting Yang Peiyun, intuitively sensing that her treatment of Qiao Yun and Qiao Mo was quite different—much more than a little bias.
Although she favored Qiao Yun, it didn’t necessarily mean that she didn’t love Qiao Mo.
However, from their recent meetings, he always felt that Yang Peiyun’s attitude towards Xiao Mo was not entirely genuine, not like a mother who hadn’t seen her child for years.
"Just listen to me on this." He spoke again.
Qiao Mo nodded, remaining silent.
After returning to school, Qiao Mo went directly to Professor Han’s office.
Because she was delayed in the car for a few minutes, Yu Qianxun and a male student, Lin Sen, were already there.
"Xiao Mo... you’re here."
"Professor Han." Qiao Mo greeted.
"Mm, you three have been the top three in the recent competitions, and Master Simon will choose one of you to collaborate with. However, Master Simon is very busy at the moment and cannot come to the country. Three days later, there will be an international designer newcomer competition in Milan, and Master Simon has written to have you participate directly; he will select one of you as a partner to directly participate in Milan Fashion Week’s clothing design." Professor Han spoke solemnly.
"It starts in three days?" Lin Sen asked, somewhat surprised.
"Yes, exactly, so the school has booked a flight for you to Milan tomorrow. The schedule is tight, and I hope you can manage. Does anyone have any questions?"
Qiao Mo and Yu Qianxun exchanged a glance, then shook their heads.
"Good, this newcomer competition is a great starting point. Typically, contestants need to go through the first few rounds of competition to enter this one, but because Master Simon doesn’t have time, he has given you a green light this time. No matter what place you achieve, never forget that you are the best designers." Professor Han seriously advised.
After leaving Professor Han’s office, Yu Qianxun sighed, "This is so sudden, I haven’t even prepared anything yet."
"Me neither." Qiao Mo shrugged.
"I’m glad you’re coming with me; otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do." Yu Qianxun spoke softly, smiling at Qiao Mo.
Warmth surged in Qiao Mo’s heart, "How’s it going? Have you signed with anywhere to work yet?"
"Not yet, taking it one step at a time." Yu Qianxun smiled.
Since they hadn’t seen each other for a while, the two decided to have lunch together at noon.
Qiao Mo chose a Western restaurant which had a nice ambiance.
It wasn’t lavishly decorated but was very quiet with few people. The two chose a window seat, offering a wide view outside.
Qiao Mo observed the woman in front of her; her short hair had grown a bit, and she was wearing light makeup. Petite and exquisite, she had an indescribable cuteness.
"Xiao Mo... how have you and Mr. Fu been lately?" Yu Qianxun hesitated before tentatively asking.
"Pretty good, it’s just that he’s been quite busy recently."
Yu Qianxun lowered her head to cut the steak in front of her, then looked up a few seconds later to slowly say, "Have you... heard about... Qiao Yun’s situation?"
Her gaze fell on Qiao Mo, with a hint of inquiry.
