Chi Xue's shop finally opened. Due to Chi Xue's discerning eyes, it was half a month later than expected. The entire shop was located in the most dazzling downtown area of City A. Almost half a month ago, all the upper-class socialites in city a knew that the childhood sweetheart of Xin Zimo, the CEO of Xin Corporation, would be holding a grand banquet for guests on this day.
Although Chi Xue was not familiar with city a, almost all the ladies came to support her after the invitation was sent out. She opened a clothing store and would definitely have their patronage in the future. Naturally, she could not neglect it.
This commercial street was instantly bustling with activity. In a short while, the parking lot was filled with all kinds of luxury cars. All of the well-dressed ladies got out of the cars. They knew each other, but they did not know each other They all smiled and greeted each other politely.
Chi Xue was originally sweet-looking. With just a little bit of dressing up, she became even more dazzling. She wore a decent light yellow gown. She was smiling and her eyes were filled with tears. She was well-rounded and could chat happily with anyone she met. She got compliments from all the ladies, and the few ladies also competed to be called her sisters.
Although Chi Xue knew that they were all here for the sake of mother Xin and Xin Zimo, they would all be her friends in the future. In the business world, having one more friend was better than having one more enemy.
"I've long heard that Miss Chi is as beautiful as a fairy. Seeing you today, you're indeed extraordinary, " A sweet-tongued little girl said with a smile.
"Yeah, with Miss Chi as a model in the future, there won't be a need to worry about selling the clothes in this shop anymore! " The few ladies echoed.
"You flatter me. I hope that everyone will take care of our business in the future. When you're free, come to the shop more often, " Chi Xue said with a smile.
"What are you all talking about? It's so lively. " At this moment, mother Xin got out of the car.
"Madam Xin is here! " A few ladies also surrounded her.
"We're complimenting Miss Chi on her beauty and good personality. Auntie, you're really lucky to have a daughter-in-law! " A few little girls joked.
"Fulin, don't talk nonsense. I'm not married yet. If you say so, doesn't that mean no one will chase me! " Chi Xue became familiar with them in a short while and said angrily.
"What? You're still considering such a good man, President Xin? If you don't want me, I'll chase after him! " A young lady with a straightforward personality laughed loudly.
"Little Xue, I won't allow other boys to chase after you! " Mother Xin joked.
"Auntie, you're also making fun of me. " Chi Xue's face was slightly red as she lowered her head.
"Miss Chi, are you good at drinking? Do you want to compete in drinking later? " A young lady with a sweet appearance but an unusually forthright personality asked.
"Mu Zi, you're here again. You can't even drink enough every day. You've come to sister Chi's SHOP TO DRINK! " A young lady joked.
"speaking of drinking, I won't BE WORSE THAN YOU GUYS! " Chi Xue smiled mysteriously.
"really? Little Xue, I've never seen you drink, " mother Xin smiled curiously.
Chi Xue leaned into mother Xin's ear and laughed quickly and softly. "I lied to them! " This made mother Xin laugh again.
"Oh right, sister Chi, is President Xin coming? "
"He... " Chi Xue was not sure whether Xin Zimo was coming or not Previously, because of his fever, he did not plan to come, but now that the store's opening date had been delayed, would he come or not? "He's busy with work, and the weather has been cold recently, so he has a cold. I'm afraid he won't be able to come... "
"Yo, Yo, sister Chi, do you feel sorry for him? " A little girl came forward and smiled mischievously.
"Who feels sorry for him? He doesn't even know how to cherish his own body. He works overtime every day until very late, like a desperate man. " Chi Xue pursed her lips.
"Sigh, if my husband is half as good as CEO Xin, I'll be able to wake up from my dreams with a smile. He eats, drinks, and has fun every day. No matter how much money he has, he'll be squandered! " A well-dressed lady sighed.
"Sister Fan, are you worried that brother-in-law will be squandered? With your family, you won't even be able to sit and eat until the mountain is empty, " Fulin said with a smile.
As expected, the people who came today were all wealthy families. Chi Xue was absolutely right to invite them according to the list of names given to her by mother Xin. Since mother Xin had already helped her set up a connection, she would have to deal with the affairs of the world by herself.
Fortunately, she was quite experienced. She had seen such a scene many times since she was young. Moreover, with mother Xin's help, today's opening ceremony would definitely be very successful. However, she still had a small regret. Did Xin Zimo really not come... ...
She looked left and right for a long time, but she still could not see Xin Zimo's figure. It was not far away from the auspicious time of the ribbon cutting and opening. She was slightly disappointed. Mother Xin could also see it. She put her arm around Chi Xue's shoulder and comforted her, "Zimo will come. He's just busy with work and can't get away. "
Chi Xue smiled. Her heart was still empty. There was both anticipation and worry.
"Today, I've invited a special guest for you, " mother Xin suddenly leaned over and whispered into her ear.
"Who? " Chi Xue asked curiously.
"You'll know when you get here. Remember to 'perform' Well. " Mother Xin's lips curved into a smile that was hard to fathom.
Du Anran received mother Xin's invitation a week before Chi Xue's shop opened. She pondered for a long time but could not figure out mother Xin's intention for inviting her. According to the person who sent the invitation, Mother Xin was thanking her for her help last time. She knew that it was not that simple.
Not to mention that she did not help at all, even if she did help, the enmity between the Xin and DU families would still be far from resolved.
If she went, she could not predict what would be waiting for her. If she did not go, the enmity between the two families would deepen, and mother Xin would be upset.
After weighing the pros and cons, she decided to go.
She changed into a rose-colored dress that she used to like, even though she never had the chance to wear it again after the decline of the world.
Chi Xue's shop was scheduled to officially open at 10:18 am. Du Anran was afraid that it would be awkward if she went early, so she waited until almost 10 am before she left the house.
Her original intention was to come back after lunch. If she really couldn't, she would ask Liu Wanwan to give her a call midway, and she would find an excuse to leave.
Everything was planned perfectly, but when her taxi stopped, she still felt a burning gaze. She specially picked a remote corner, but her taxi was still as eye-catching among the large number of luxury cars.
Even though the car stopped and drove away, the number of gazes on her increased by a lot.
Among the crowd, there were many wives and young ladies who knew her, and some of them were even her former best friends. However, after the DU family was down and out, they never spoke to each other again. They avoided her like she was the god of plague, afraid that they would be as unlucky as her.
She smiled at the crowd with an awkward expression. Fortunately, mother Xu was there. She recognized Du Anran and came up to greet her. Du Anran let her bring her around the shop, and mother Xu agreed.
Before she could walk far, someone in the crowd started to discuss in a low voice.
"Hey, look, is that Du Anran? " A lady who did not know Du Anran asked doubtfully.
"Why not? " A lady looked at Du Anran's back. "This dress is already in the first half of the year, and you have the nerve to wear it here. " She still held a grudge against her husband because she did not sign a contract with Shihe.
"Sister Chi, are you close to Du Anran? " Someone in the crowd asked. Everyone chimed in. Du Anran was Xin Zimo's ex-girlfriend, and this was known throughout city A.
Women were naturally gossipy, and as expected, a series of questions came one after another. "Miss Chi, is CEO Xin still in contact with her? "
"Why not? I heard that someone often saw du Anran walking around the XIN building. "
"Is that so? What is she doing there? "
"Who knows. "
The crowd went on and on. Chi Xue finally understood who the "guest" was. Just when she did not know how to answer the crowd's questions.. However, Mother Xin spoke slowly, "Miss Du is Xiaoxue's guest. Xiaoxue needed a blood transfusion because of the car accident. It was Miss Du who helped her. Xiaoxue has always remembered it. Today, I'm taking this opportunity to repay Miss Du's kindness. "
Chi Xue had long forgotten about du Anran's blood donation. In her heart, if it were not for Du Anran and Jin Shaonan, she would not have gotten into a car accident. However, this matter was suppressed by Xin Zimo. Up until now, mother Xin still didn't know that the perpetrators were Du Anran and Jin Shaonan.
However, Chi Xue understood mother Xin's intentions. She quickly smiled and said, "yes, a drop of water should be repaid with a gushing spring, not to mention A LIFE-SAVING GRACE! "
"Sister Chi is really sentimental, " Fu Lin praised.
"Miss Chi, don't think that sister is too long-winded. Let me give you a piece of advice. In some matters, you can give way, but in some matters, you absolutely can not. Moreover, in many matters, you can not give face, " a divorced young woman said matter-of-factly.
Mother Xin said on Chi Xue's behalf, "Xiao Xue is not a two or three-year-old child. These principles have long been engraved in her heart! "
"Do you guys think that we should invite her over to have a chat? " A young lady pointed at Du Anran and asked.
"Let's not spoil the mood. I don't have much in common with her, " a young woman said coldly.
"That's right. We can also talk about the newly released dresses, lipstick, and perfume. If she comes over, how can we chat? "
"Oh right, my husband took a fancy to a villa by the beach yesterday and said that he wants to buy it. He asked me what I think. You guys say, do you want to buy it? "
"Yes! " Everyone joked. "It's just a small matter. Don't forget to invite your sisters over. We've been coveting that villa by the seaside for a long time! "
"You guys make it sound so easy. My husband just invested a large sum of money into a project in Hainan last week. If he buys another villa, I'm afraid I'll have to eat a few vegetarian meals! "
"Sister Lan, you're really short-sighted. You're fishing for a big fish with a long line. When the money from the Hainan project is collected, how many villas will be enough for you to buy! "
"Xin Lan, if you're short of money or something, just ask Auntie for a loan. DON'T STAND ON CEREMONY! " Mother Xin laughed from the side.
"That's right. With Auntie's words, sister Lan, Tell brother-in-law to hurry up and buy the villa. We can also bask in the light. " The crowd laughed again.
Everyone was standing outside Chi Xue's shop and talking noisily. No one noticed that du Anran's face suddenly turned pale in the shop.
Standing in a corner of the shop, she saw her Sapphire Chrysanthemum and rouge-like snow. One was as blue as the sea, and the other was as white as snow. They quietly opened in the corner. They were not ostentatious, but they could not take away their dazzling brilliance.
These were the two autumn chrysanthemums that she had lost. She did not expect them to appear here. They were clearly her things, but now, they had become theirs.
She had originally wanted to plant these two precious autumn chrysanthemums in front of her uncle's grave. She remembered that although her father had spent a lot of effort to find these two flowers, the seller refused to put a price on them. In the end, he simply refused to sell them It was her uncle who had spent a lot of effort to persuade the other party for several months before he finally bought the flowers.
She knew that her uncle liked these two autumn chrysanthemums very much.
