At this time, the kindergarten teacher came over to them. Fang Yansha immediately pulled her close to her and said, "Miss Wang, my brother has invested millions of dollars in this kindergarten because he wanted you to run a good school, but you can't just let any uneducated children study here. Can you bear the consequences if the heir of our Fang family gets hurt?"
Miss Wang glanced at Yan Yan, covered her mouth, and whispered in Fang Yansha's ear. Fang Yansha's eyes widened for a moment, then she squinted. Her expression was constantly changing.
She bent over and said to Fang Zikai, "Kai Kai, don't play with him anymore. No matter how rich he is, he will still become a criminal in the future because he has no mother to educate him." She wanted to say something more, but Miss Wang winked at her. Some people around were also pointing at her and whispering among themselves. Although she was so unwilling to shut up, she had no other choice but to swallow her anger and leave. But before she left with Fang Zikai, she glared at Su Ruowan.
Yan Yan stuck out his tongue at Fang Yansha and made a face. He then turned to Su Ruowan and smiled. "Beautiful sister, I've just been transferred here from another school today. That Fatty Fang is only a week earlier than me. He's so fat, but he wants Jiu Jiu to be his girlfriend. I think he's a toad who wants to eat swan meat, right?"
Su Ruowan smiled at him but thinking of what Fang Yansha said just now about his mother, she asked, "Yan Yan, why doesn't your mother pick you up?"
The innocent and cheerful smile disappeared from the little boy's face. He put the small bag on his back and said in an indifferent voice, "My mother is dead."
Dead? Looking at him, Su Ruowan couldn't help feeling sorry. He was so young, but there was already a mature and indifferent expression on his face that should not belong to a child.
Yan Yan immediately smiled again, "Lao Zhou comes to pick me up every day. I'll wait a little longer."
She nodded and said, "Jiu Jiu, say goodbye to Yan Yan. We're going home now."
"Bye, Yan Yan!" Jiu Jiu said softly.
When Su Ruowan and Jiu Jiu left, Yan Yan stood alone at the school gate.
While on the bus, Su Ruowan still thought of Fang Yansha. She didn't expect Fang Yansha to have such a young nephew in her fifties.
"Mommy, our teacher said that the summer vacation is coming." Jiu Jiu's sweet voice brought Su Ruowan back to her senses.
How time flew! When July came, the two children would be a year older.
"Mommy..." Jiu Jiu continued cheerfully, "Our teacher also said that there will be a parent-child sports competition."
She raised her pink fingers to count. "First, we need to wear parent-child outfits. Second, the champion can get many awards. Third... Oh, I forgot..." She blinked her clear and big black eyes a few times and blushed.
Su Ruowan stroked her soft hair and said, "It's okay. Just ask your teacher tomorrow what's the third one."
"Okay." She nodded and buried her head into her mother's arms.
Su Ruowan felt guilty in her heart. Based on their encounter today, she could tell that Fang Yansha still had a deep prejudice against her. It seemed that she could no longer bother Helian Chen this time.
The next day, Su Ruowan went to the modeling agency early in the morning.
She told the receptionist at the front desk that she wanted to see Miss Gao. It didn't take long before she heard the sound of approaching high heels on the floor. When she looked up, she saw a tall and beautiful woman walking towards her gracefully.
"Are you Su Ruowan?" She recognized the woman's familiar voice, so she nodded.
Gao Xiaoxiao reached out her hand and shook hands with Su Ruowan enthusiastically. "You're finally here. My mission is accomplished. Come, I'll introduce you to the others."
Gao Xiaoxiao took her to the training room where a dozen young models were training.
Gao Xiaoxiao arranged the training for Su Ruowan. Miss Ye, the trainer, cast a meaningful glance at her.
Su Ruowan joined the training at once. Gao Xiaoxiao watched for a while and left.
"Mr. Wang, Su Ruowan has just started her training. Don't worry. I didn't mention Dacheng Company to her. Thank you, Mr. Wang. This is what I should do... Bye, Mr. Wang." She then hung up and walked to her desk.
For Gao Xiaoxiao, although Su Ruowan was good-looking, she didn't meet the requirements of a model at all. Her height was only 1.65 meters, and she dressed so ordinarily.
However, she was just an employee. Her boss didn't tell her why they had to hire Su Ruowan as one of their models, and she didn't ask either. This was something she learned from her years of work.
After walking on the stage in 9-inch high heels for several hours, Su Ruowan could only sigh when she took off her shoes and saw her red and swollen heels.
Finally, the training came to an end. But she had to bear her sore body because she still needed to pick up Jiu Jiu from kindergarten.
Jiu Jiu, who had been waiting at the school gate for a long time, tilted her head and asked curiously, "Mommy, are you tired today?"
Su Ruowan reached out and held her hand. "I never feel tired when I think of you."
Jiu Jiu giggled.
Su Ruowan waited for a while, hoping to see Yan Yan. But it seemed that the little boy was not in the kindergarten anymore. Maybe... He must have been taken home long ago. She felt a little depressed at the thought of it.
In the supermarket.
Holding a woman and a child's T-shirts in her hands, Su Ruowan was about to go to the counter to pay. Jiu Jiu frowned and asked, "Mommy, aren't you going to buy one for Daddy Helian?"
She stopped and looked at Jiu Jiu's innocent questioning eyes. She had no choice but to turn around and take a man's T-shirt.
Jiu Jiu trusted and liked Helian Chen so much. But she didn't know if she should be happy or sad about it. After all, Helian Chen's existence had somewhat made up for the loss of father's love for Jiu Jiu. Now, Jiu Jiu no longer asked questions about her father.
She knew that she must have scared Jiu Jiu in G City last year.
It was New Year's Eve, the best time for family reunions. At the dinner table, her mother suddenly mentioned Ye Weiting. He was the son of the Ye family who lived next door. He was a top student like her and was admitted to G University with her.
In their sophomore year, she dropped out of school. And when she came back a year later, she already had a daughter without a father. Ye Weiting got the highest scholarship in the whole school and found himself a girlfriend who was the daughter of the head of a financial group in G City.
Her mother sighed and said that if only she was with him back then.
She couldn't help refuting. Her mother got so anxious that she threw the chopsticks on the table and blurted out, "It's better than being deceived by a man before finishing college!"
Jiu Jiu cried in fright. So she packed their luggage and took a bus back to D City that night.
Since it was New Year's Eve, there were only a few passengers on the bus. Holding Jiu Jiu in her arms, she sat in the last row and wept silently. Jiu Jiu kept wiping her tears, but her small hands were not enough to wipe them all away.
The day before the launch event.
As soon as the training was over, Miss Ye invited everyone to attend the pep rally at Huangchao Restaurant in the evening.
Su Ruowan had no other choice but to call Wu Lili and ask her to take her daughter home.
At six o'clock, Gao Xiaoxiao, dressed in a black dress, asked everyone to gather.
Only then did Su Ruowan notice that the other models had already changed into their formal gowns.
Most of them were young women in their twenties and had no trouble changing their clothes while doing their makeup. Some had also started to inquire about the mystery guests who would attend tonight. Obviously, they were very excited.
After taking off her sweaty clothes, Su Ruowan pulled her spare outfit out of the bag. It was a white T-shirt and simple denim shorts.
Once she got dressed, she draped her long hair over her shoulders. Among all the models wearing heavy makeup, Su Ruowan looked simple and innocent in her clothes.
When Gao Xiaoxiao saw her, she was stunned for a moment. Putting on a smile, she leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Clever!"
Su Ruowan was quite astonished. It didn't take long for her to hear the other models' whispers.
"This Su Ruowan is quite scheming..."
"Yes, she dressed up all pure and innocent just so she could look special!"
"Shush, all of you. I heard that our boss wanted her to be there. There might be a powerful man supporting her. Be careful!"
Su Ruowan turned around, shocked. What did they mean?
At this time, Gao Xiaoxiao clapped her hands, and the dressing room immediately fell silent.
Tall and slender, the woman wore a short black dress that made her skin seem particularly fairer. There was no denying how attractive she looked.
"You've all done a great job this week! Tonight, you'll meet the sponsor of the event! But you must have in mind this is a serious occasion. Stop thinking about finding a sugar daddy here. I don't want any of you flirting with men anywhere near my sight!"
The next moment, Gao Xiaoxiao turned around and left the room. The girls immediately started to complain.
"Who does she think she is? She doesn't have a boyfriend and now wants to stop us from finding one too?"
"Hypocritical woman!"
"She is simply jealous!"
At seven in the evening, in the lobby of Huangchao Restaurant.
The models had been arranged in three tables. Besides those, there were two other tables in the middle of the room. Most seats had already been occupied. Gao Xiaoxiao and Miss Ye were sitting in one of them with some people, who Su Ruowan didn't know but imagined to be very important.
There were three empty seats at the table at the center, which should be reserved for the most important guests.
Su Ruowan sat there bored, praying that the dinner party could end as soon as possible.
However, since the most important guests hadn't shown up yet, this wasn't likely to happen. Someone even complained in a low voice about the delay.
Grabbing her phone, Su Ruowan logged into the Weibo app and was surprised to find that Wu Lili and Wang Zijian had been defending her from thousands of people online.
As she looked at the man tagged in the post, she saw Jing Muchen's name!
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly clicked on the link. Fortunately... the man was so busy every day that he probably didn't have time to connect to Weibo.
The number of Jing Muchen's followers on the Weibo was 15 million, though he hadn't posted anything on it yet.
Confidently, Su Ruowan joined the online discussion. She only stopped typing when she heard Gao Xiaoxiao's voice echoing through the room.
"Now, let's welcome Mr. Zhang, from Dacheng Company, and his daughter, Miss Zhang Luoya, the person behind this event!"
Zhang Luoya... Su Ruowan looked up and saw the woman. In a royal blue cheongsam, she had her brown curly hair tied to the side and a beautiful smile on her oval face.
By the time the daughter and father took their seats, Gao Xiaoxiao spoke sweetly again in the microphone, "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!"
"I would like to express our gratitude to Dacheng Company for the generous sponsorship. This is a pep rally for tomorrow's launch event..."
It crossed Su Ruowan's mind that maybe a certain man wouldn't come tonight.
However, Gao Xiaoxiao's next words proved her wrong. "I would also like to welcome, Jing Muchen!" Startled, Su Ruowan almost fell from her chair.
As she heard the screams from the excited audience, she lowered her head and felt a migraine coming.
"A Chen..." Zhang Luoya stood up and walked to him, bestowing all her charm. She then hooked her arm in his and slightly stood on her tiptoe to whisper something in his ear.
Jing Muchen nodded briefly, his face as cold as ever. His dark grey suit wrapped his tall and straight figure to perfection, exuding elegance and nobility.
Gao Xiaoxiao continued, "Let's welcome Jing Muchen, the CEO of Jing Yang Group to the stage!"
Screams echoed from every corner of the room. People started to look like fans cheering for their favorite idol.
"Oh my God!"
"What a handsome man!"
"He's the man of my dreams! A true prince charming! "
Zhang Luoya's eyes couldn't hide her satisfaction.
Zhang Fuhu was also very pleased. Looking at the couple, he was already planning the cooperation with the land in the south of the city.
Walking onto the stage, Jing Muchen took the microphone and said in a low yet magnetic voice, "Thank you for your hard work. I wish all the success to the launch event tomorrow."
After saying that, he handed the microphone back to Gao Xiaoxiao and took a glass of red wine served by a waiter nearby. Raising it, he brought it to his thin lips and drank.
As Su Ruowan noticed everyone standing up and raising their glasses, she had no choice but to do the same.
At this moment, she felt very lucky that all these other models had a different goal from hers. Thankfully, she was sitting at the table opposite the one in the middle, which covered her up pretty well.
The girls at her table were itching for a chance to speak to Jing Muchen despite Zhang Luoya's presence. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them. How could they miss it?
