He had agreed to allow Zhou Shuang to leave the family.
Lu Yinan's mother glared at the old man."Father..."
But the old man silenced her with a sharp glare before she could finish."If you have time, go and educate your son. He thinks too highly of himself and he is getting more arrogant."
No one dared to defy the old man's orders in the family.
Lu Yinan's mother pursed her lips and she hung her head. She had lost all her courage to stand up against the old master. She glanced at Zhou Shuang with a desperate look."Xiaoshuang, what did Yinan do wrong? I'll get him to apologize to you. You can carry on working and I will take care of the children. But there is no need for you to move out."
Zhou Shuang smiled and said, "I've found my apartment. You can bring the children to my place to visit me."
As she said this, her heart seemed as though a pair of hands was squeezing it painfully.
The triplets had never left her side ever since they were born.
But things had come to this and she had to face reality. She didn't want to split up the three of them, and she couldn't fight Lu Yinan.
So, she could only endure this pain in silence. She wanted to minimize the pain and loss of the triplets.
If she left quietly, she could tell them that she went out to work. And she planned to meet them occasionally.
Seeing how determined Zhou Shuang was, Lu Yinan's mother teared up a little."Are you thinking of abandoning your children?"
She bowed her head as she tried to hold back her tears."Aunt, I need to go. I can't be late on my first day."
She waved goodbye and turned around. Then she strode quickly towards the entrance.
The triplets were playing on the couch. Zhou Shuang stood at a distance as she watched them. Her eyes were welling up with tears.
"Xiaoshuang..."
Lu Yinan's mother called her and Zhou Shuang hurriedly rubbed her eyes. She sprinted to the doors and put on her shoes.
Then she ran to her car and started the engine.
The butler opened the courtyard gates for her, and Zhou Shuang stepped on the accelerator. Her car vanished out of sight in no time.
She didn't like to cry so she was trying hard to fight back her tears.
On her first day of work, she didn't have much to do. She spent most of her time familiarizing herself with the studio and departments.
Su Yan initially started a photography studio, but it looked more like a design and fashion studio. There were a couple of designers, a few of them from overseas.
Posters of models in dramatic and stylish clothing decorated the walls.
Time flew past and before Zhou Shuang knew it, the sky turned dark.
It was time to end work and everyone knocked off on time as it wasn't the peak period.
Everyone bade goodbye to Zhou Shuang.
Zhou Shuang waved and smiled as everyone left one by one...
"Aren't you ending work?" A pleasant and familiar voice rang from the entrance.
Zhou Shuang glanced at her with a smile."You're early."
Wen Xuxu wore a black floral coat paired with red leggings. She smiled and strode towards Zhou Shuang."How can I be late when you're giving me a treat?"
