Chapter 1595: Chapter 1592: Looks Alike

“Ms. Huo and Jiaojiao will also come along.”

Ye Muyu saw her clinging to her like this, feeling a bit helpless, and hinted, “If you want to go out alone, Mother also allows it.”

Chu Ziluo’s eyes curved with a smile and she shook her head, “No, Mother, I don’t want to go out alone. I’m not young anymore, and when I get married in the future, the time I can spend with you will be short. I don’t want to waste such a good opportunity now.”

“You little girl…” Ye Muyu didn’t understand how this child became so clingy, almost like she inherited it from Chu Heng.

Thinking of Chu Heng’s usual actions, she couldn’t help but laugh lightly.

“Madam, are we going to the bookstore now?” Su Mei, following beside her, assumed she was happy because the shop was doing well, and couldn’t hide her wide smile.

The business at Mei Mian Rouge Shop was excellent, selling nearly 300 taels of silver just in the morning.

Ye Muyu did not refuse Chu Ziluo coming along.

Huo Hongyan and Zhou Jiaojiao initially intended to go shopping too, without a specific destination, but were drawn by the fresh customer service methods at Mei Mian Rouge Shop.

Upon hearing about visiting other Chu family shops, they became interested.

“Speaking of which, I used to have no interest in the shops my family owned, thinking that just learning how to read the ledgers was enough and not needing to care. Now I realize that running a shop is so much fun,” Zhou Jiaojiao’s eyes lit up as she excitedly clung to Chu Ziluo’s arm. She, true to her name, was petite and adorable.

Although she was fourteen this year, older than Chu Ziluo, her nature remained pure, and she was initially too shy to speak when unfamiliar. Now, she said whatever came to mind, her personality extremely cheerful and lively.

Chu Ziluo agreed with her and nodded repeatedly, “I also think running a shop is fun; it’s all my mother’s teaching.”

Huo Hongyan’s perspective on Ye Muyu completely changed. Watching her walking ahead, her silhouette alone was captivating, not stunningly beautiful but increasingly pleasant to look at.

She turned to look at Chu Ziluo.

Chu Ziluo was discussing with Zhou Jiaojiao about shop management, what interesting things might happen, and the sense of accomplishment from developing an excellent product.

Feeling the gaze, she asked puzzled, “Ms. Huo, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?”

“No.” Huo Hongyan smiled warmly, affectionately pinching her cheek, a hint of wistfulness in her tone, “Just thinking that little sister Ziluo has grown up, looking more and more like Madam Chu.”

“I resemble Mother?” Chu Ziluo’s almond-shaped eyes widened, unable to contain her surprise and delight.

Seeing her so thrilled, Huo Hongyan felt a comforting sense of relief, unable to equate the Chu Ziluo she heard about and met once in a past life with the confident, smiling Ziluo in front of her.

However, no matter what, isn’t the current Ziluo the real Ziluo?

It seems like everyone is getting better.

The suppressed emotions in her heart seemed to disappear in Ziluo’s smile. The two exchanged a look, and Ziluo, sensing something, matched her smile with an even brighter one.

Zhou Jiaojiao leaned closer while holding her arm, exclaiming, “Really, Ziluo does look a lot like Madam Chu, especially the eyes, so bright, like they can speak.”

“I’ll tell Mother all your compliments.”
