Chapter 494: She Just Wanted to Compete!

~7 min read 1,359 words

"Hongyu, have you handled the media side?" She approached Yan Hongyu and exhorted in a low voice, "It's rare for the eldest lady of the Yan family to attend our company's annual meeting, you must let them give more shots to our 'protagonist'!"

Yan Hongyu said: "Don't worry, I've already greeted the reporters at the scene, they know what to do."

"Ms. Yan, we meet again."

Yan Qingxue chatted with Yan Old Lady for a while, and Yan Old Lady went to greet several other heavyweight guests.

She had been busy all day today and didn't have time to eat at noon, so she went to the cold storage area to get a few pieces of snacks, preparing to find a place with fewer people to fill her stomach first.

Just as she was picking up a small cake with the plate in her hand, a tall man in a dark gray tailcoat walked over.

The man was high-spirited, his manners were like being trained, not a bit wrong, and he looked like he was a model.

Yan Qingxue looked up slightly to size up the man in front of her, only feeling that he looked familiar, but couldn't remember where they had met.

The man didn't feel embarrassed either, instead smiling and introducing himself: "It's normal that Ms. Yan doesn't remember me. My name is Alex, a signed model of Giant Star. We met once at the A City Fashion Week last time."

"Hello, just call me Annie." Dealing with people she didn't know, Yan Qingxue was more used to letting them call her English name.

Ever since she entered the Huaxia Fashion Association, she had fashion activities to attend every month, and she had seen too many models, really having no impression of the person in front of her.

There were too many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and one would have aesthetic fatigue after seeing too many. If it wasn't a character that was stunning at first sight, Yan Qingxue generally wouldn't remember them.

"Then Ms. Annie, do I have the honor to invite you for a drink after the banquet?" The tall male model looked at Yan Qingxue affectionately.

"Qingxue, come over here!"

Before Yan Qingxue could answer, she saw Xu Tian waving at her not far away.

"Sorry, I already have arrangements." Yan Qingxue smiled apologetically at the male model and turned to walk towards Xu Tian.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Xu Tian held a high-footed glass and took a sip of sparkling water, "People like this who come to find you are all looking for something else. Be careful, don't meet a second Xu Rixin."

Although Yan Qingxue walked out of the shadow of breaking up with Xu Rixin now, Xu Tian was still worried that she would repeat the same mistakes and be deceived by other scumbags.

Those who came to strike up a conversation at this kind of occasion were basically either fancying Yan Qingxue's connections in the fashion circle or fancying her identity as the Yan family's daughter.

He was also a man and could see at a glance what abacus the male model was playing.

"Cut, do you think I'm stupid?" Yan Qingxue rolled her eyes, "I'm allergic to men now! Especially men whose careers are still in the start-up period, each one's abacus is so loud I can hear it from dozens of meters away."

Her main goal now was to build Flourishing Stars Media into one of the top brokerage companies in the entertainment industry through her own efforts. She didn't consider marriage or men at all.

Before, she considered too much, wanting to marry that scumbag Xu Rixin, so she was wholehearted for him, but the result was that she didn't get sincerity at all, but was treated as a handy tool instead.

"It's best that you can stay sober." Xu Tian nodded with relief, "There are still many good men in this world, it's not too late to find one when you have the confidence."

"Anyway, I don't want to fall in love for the next few years." Yan Qingxue waved her hand and said very dominantly, "I want to be a career-oriented woman, men and such can stand aside!"

She was determined to engage in her career and not fall in love. Later, several men took the initiative to come and strike up a conversation, all wanting her contact information and to invite her out, but they were all rejected by her.

Yan Old Lady greeted several old friends and just came back to see Yan Qingxue reject a man's invitation to dance.

"Qingxue, you are not young anymore, you can consider your lifelong event." The old man was still most concerned about the child's emotional problems, "Look, Hongyu's marriage is set, you as the elder sister have to work hard!"

"Grandma..." Yan Qingxue pretended to be embarrassed, "Now that the company has just started, I really don't have time to fall in love, and it's not good to delay others, and I don't want to get married yet, let's talk about it in a few years."

"You..." Yan Old Lady said helplessly, "Even if you don't want to get married, you can contact your peers more. I think that young man just now was quite good, and it seems he is the president of a real estate company. He just invited you to dance, why did you refuse him?"

"This isn't afraid of others misunderstanding." Yan Qingxue laughed.

"It's not the old era now, two people dancing together doesn't mean they have to get married. Just treat it as making more friends. Today is the home field for you young people, just rest assured to go play with them, don't worry about me, this old woman."

"I don't, I want to accompany Grandma." Yan Qingxue held onto Yan Old Lady and wouldn't let go, "I finally saw Grandma, I want to stay with you for a while longer."

Yan Qingxue also thought it through now. Instead of having an unhappy time every time she came back, it was better to pretend and make her grandfather and grandmother happy.

Before, her mother didn't know how to coax people, only knew how to do things silently, plus Yan Ershen was very good at sweet-talking to please Grandma, so Grandma was deceived by appearances and always favored Yan Ershen.

Originally, after their family was kicked out of the house, Yan Qingxue gave up.

She didn't care about anything in the Yan family, and didn't want to compete, as long as both sides didn't interfere with each other.

But the second uncle's family pushed their luck, always wanting to frame them in front of her grandfather and grandmother.

Yan Qingxue was not like her parents, who only knew how to avoid trouble.

Why should honest people always be bullied?

Didn't her second uncle and the others not want her to compete for family property? She just wanted to compete!

"If you want to accompany me, you can come back after work anytime, I told you before, if you are not busy, come back for dinner, I'll have the chef make you your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs." Yan Old Lady patted Yan Qingxue's back of the hand helplessly, "It's you, always saying work is busy, and never came back once."

Speaking of this, the old lady paused, her tone suddenly becoming serious.

"Qingxue, tell Grandma, is it because someone said something to you that you have concerns and don't come back for dinner?"

Although she was old, she wasn't senile. She hadn't forgotten how Yan Ershen bullied Yan Qingxue at the family banquet last time.

"Remember, there will always be a place for you in the Yan family. If you want to come home for dinner, if you want to come to accompany me, you can come anytime. As long as your grandfather and I are here, no one dares to kick you out!"

Yan Ershen, who had been paying attention to the movement here not far away, was so angry that she almost crushed her full porcelain teeth. ===== CHAPTER 495 =====
