Meng Chuyuan was wearing a low-collared wool sweater and a light-colored wool coat. Before she went out, she felt that her neck was a little empty. She was worried that it would be cold outside at night and was conflicted about it.

At first, she wanted to change her clothes, but when she was looking for clothes, she saw a silk scarf in the cupboard. She took it out and put it around her neck. She realized that it was the right size, so she wore it out.

“You’re talking about this?” Meng Chuyuan was about to take it off to prevent it from getting dirty during the meal.

Seeing that Liao Jiayan seemed to be interested in her scarf, Meng Chuyuan held it in her hand and did not rush to stuff it into her bag.

“That’s right. This is the first time I’ve seen such a novel scarf.” Liao Jiayan instinctively leaned forward to take a closer look. She couldn’t help but reach out to touch the scarf. It was soft and warm, and a large part of it still had Meng Chuyuan’s warmth.

Liao Jiayan’s eyes lit up. “A handicraft.”

“Sister Yan Yan has a discerning eye. You can even tell that it’s hand-made.”

Meng Chuyuan’s scarf had patterns on both sides, and the front and back sides were different colors.

The edge of the roll gave off a three-dimensional feel, retaining the original color and smoothness of the silk– which can only be achieved by hand.

However, the traces of handiwork of this scarf was not very obvious. It seemed that the person who made this scarf was especially skilled with needles.

“I know a little. Where did you buy this scarf?”

“My husband brought this back from a business trip. I don’t know where he bought it.”

There were all kinds of silk scarves in Meng Chuyuan’s cabinet, but this silk scarf was eye-catching in both color and workmanship. Naturally, it would become her first choice when she was making her decision.

“From the looks of it, your relationship as husband and wife isn’t as bad as the rumors say.”

She did not pay special attention to other people’s lives. It was just that when the production team announced the guest line-up on Weibo, she happened to see news about Meng Chuyuan.

After the variety show started, Meng Chuyuan did not address the rumors of her being an abandoned woman from a wealthy family. Not only did the audience think that she was mysterious, but the other guests also could not understand what role she played.

The last time Liao Jiayan saw the couple eating in the restaurant, although they had only greeted each other vaguely, she felt that their relationship seemed normal on the surface.

Regarding this question, Meng Chuyuan still did not give a clear explanation. Instead, she gave Liao Jiayan this answer. “Like a person drinking water, you know whether it’s warm or cold.”

“Indeed.”

During the meal, the two of them chatted non-stop. In fact, they got along well in all aspects.

Through the conversation, Meng Chuyuan found out that Liao Jiayan was a fashion designer. Two years ago, she opened her own brand studio overseas. Coincidentally, fashion design and art were related, so the two of them could additionally have artistic exchanges.

Liao Jiayan said, “My mother felt that girls had to learn music and dance to be adorable. At that time, I had been learning vocal music and dancing with my sister since I was young. Later, I accidentally sprained my ankle and lost the opportunity to perform on stage. Therefore, only my sister was chosen by an entertainment company and debuted. It was also then that I had the chance to do what I liked.”

She actually didn’t like singing and dancing at all. Taking advantage of that sprained ankle, Liao Jiayan directly laid her cards on the table with her mother. She had no interest in stage performances.

At that time, she had quarreled fiercely with her family. Perhaps from then on, her mother had started to dislike her.

Liao Jiayan didn’t want to know the exact reason, nor did she want to pursue the matter.

…

Meng Chuyuan finished her meal with Liao Jiayan and returned home not long after.

She had just returned to the bedroom and had yet to change her clothes when Lu Qingye called.
