In france, inside a shooting studio. Many photographers were busy snapping pictures of two gorgeous models in front of them. The layout of the shoot was to endorse a one of the most popular fashion brand, the D.Y fashion.

The ambassador of D.Y Fashion was none other than Qiao Lin, though she told Pan Ke that she wanted to take a break from work. But due to circumstances she was still not able to get a rest, on top of that D.Y Fashion is one of the brands that has been endorse by Qiao Lin for a very long time.

They had a connection with each other and hence Qiao Lin could not skipped the shoot, having to resign to fate. She flew all the way from Country Z to France, she was currently paired up with one of the popular male model. Victor, he is one of the rising models in france which many brands would want to work with.

"Move in closer"

"Bite your lips"

"Good, try to change a style."

The studio was noisy as the shouts of the director could be heard, after a while of shooting. They finally got to rest, Qiao Lin who was dead tired. She dragged her body to the resting lounge and took a rest, she had been standing and smiling for hours. Though she was an experienced model, the long hours of standing and working would take a toll on her body.

As though remembering something, she quickly checked her phone and saw that it was already 12pm. She sighed as went to scroll down her missed calls and saw the person that did not answer her call.

"Yue, I have been calling you...why did you not picked up the call?" Qiao Lin grumbled the moment she heard the call got through.

"Something cropped up earlier, sorry Lin." Song Yu replied in a helpless tone.

Hearing the tone of her bestie, she knew that there was something amiss. "Did something happened?...is it about your family or is it about your company?" Qiao Lin asked in a worried and concerned tone.

Song Yu smile upon hearing the caring tone of her bestie, "Nothing happened, alright...tell me why did you call. Did something happened?" She asked.

"There is!, and I need your help.."

"What help?" Song Yu asked in confusion.

Qiao Lin as though afraid of voicing out her request, she looked down on the floor before saying in a soft tone. "You see, I am in france for D.Y Fashion shoot right now. But something cropped up at the shoot, the rest of the products are being held up at the checkpoint. I think there was a miscommunication and that..."

"You need my help to get the rest of the products over to the shooting set as soon as possible?" Song Yu cut in.

"Yes, the in charge of D.Y Fashion called me to help him. Can you contact your people to contact the officers in france?" Qiao Lin asked.

Smiling Song Yu replied in a gentle tone, "Count it on me, do not worry about the other's just focus on your shoot."

"I knew you can do it, I'll buy you lots of your favorites after I comeback." Qiao Lin informed in a happy tone.

Hearing what Qiao Lin said, Song Yu laughed as she knew the lady would buy dozens of treats to her house. The both of them talked for a moment before hanging up as Qiao Lin needed to go back and continue her shoot.

In Royal Mansion 4,

It was 12.30pm, Aunt Huang who was cleaning to house was stopped by Gu Chen coming down the stairs. She looked at the man and asked, "Mr Gu, when did you..."

"Yesterday" Gu Chen cut Aunt Huang off, as he walked towards the dining table and sat down comfortably.

Aunt Huang as a servant who had worked for many years, she quickly registered what he said. She put the mop down and went into the kitchen to get utensils for Gu Chen, before passing it to the man. "My apologies, i did not know that Mr Gu is here. Hence, i may not have prepared enough." Aunt Huang informed.

Gu Chen without looking up, he replied in an indifferent tone. "More than enough"

Hearing that, Aunt Huang nodded and returned back to work. She had been wondering why did her young miss not come down for breakfast a few hours ago, she had went to check on her and confirmed that she was at home. She had also knocked on Song Yu's door and told her that the food was ready.

But after few hours, when it was nearing lunch. Song Yu still did not come down, making Aunt Huang prepare a new menu for her. Sometimes Song Yu would go off in the afternoon for work, so she was prepared to prepare two sets of ingredients. Usually Song Yu would notify her if she would be eating breakfast or lunch at home, but nevertheless she was always prepared.

Now that she saw Gu Chen, she got an idea of maybe the couple quarreled early in the morning hence the late work. She brushed it off and continue doing her chores.

Having a light make up on, Song Yu came down the stairs to eat before leaving for work. She wore a black turtleneck shirt with a cashmere coat over her, she wore a brown pleated pants pair with a black boots. The dress up make her look mature and attractive, she had her hair tied into a low bun.

Walking down the stair with her handbag, she ignored a certain presence and sat down opposite of him. "Aunt Huang, I will not be coming back for dinner today." Song Yu informed her before picking up some dumplings to eat.

"Remember to not drink alcohol, since your gastric is not that good." Aunt Huang reminded as Song Yu would always drink when she was not having dinner at home, she knew her too well. That made her worried as there was bottles of gastric medications in the cabinet at Song Yu's room.

"En" Song Yu answered before casually sipping some tea and eating some vegetables. Gu Chen who was opposite her, he had on an extremely cold look. "Are you sure you will not suffocate from heat?" he asked in a ridiculing tone.

Song Yu glared at the man and replied in a sarcastic tone, "Well thanks to a certain beast"
