Extra 20
Han Yan stayed in the study for a long time, but Qin Anning couldn't wait for them to come out, so she had to go back to her room to sleep.
She lay in bed, took out her phone and glanced at her chat history with Fu Yin. The last message was from three days ago.
Qin Anning sighed. He must still be busy. She put down her phone, turned off the light, and went to sleep.
The next day, Bai Lin also came to visit, along with Wang Ye and Yang Han.
The quiet villa immediately became lively, and with so many people, time flew by.
After Qin Ce and his group returned, they received visitors every day, both acquaintances and strangers, each carrying a gift.
With nothing to do, Qin Anning spent her time in her room unpacking gifts. These were the same things that people kept giving her.
She pursed her lips, and after taking it apart halfway, Qin Anning lost interest.
Two days before the Lunar New Year, I was finally leaving Chongqing for Beijing.
I'm going to Beijing again this year for the Spring Festival.
After getting off the plane, Qin Anning followed her parents to the luxurious villa. Large red lanterns hung at the entrance, and the sounds of laughter and playfulness could be heard intermittently from inside.
Even before entering, I knew it would be lively inside. The driver drove us in through the main gate, and sure enough, there were several children chasing and playing in the courtyard.
The servants stood guard not far from them, and if anyone did anything dangerous, a servant would step in to stop them.
Qin Anning looked at the children, and several of them looked familiar. She couldn't help but sigh at how fast time flies.
It changes every year.
As soon as he got out of the car, Qin Yi hurriedly walked out. When he saw the three of them, his expression brightened with joy.
"Brother and sister-in-law, you've arrived."
Qin Ce nodded slightly.
Qin Yi's gaze fell on Qin Anning again, and he smiled, "Anning, you've become even more beautiful since I last saw you in a year."
Qin Anning smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Second Uncle. And Manman?"
"She's inside. Go find her and play."
Qin Anning nodded, quickly went inside, and jogged upstairs.
Here, she became closer to Qin Man, who was only about two years older than her.
The other children are too far apart in age, creating a generation gap. They have their own circles of friends, and Qin Anning can't get along with them.
Qin Yi then took Qin Ce and the other two to see Qin Liang. So many years had passed, and the grudges between the father and son had long since disappeared.
Although Qin Ce did not inherit the Qin family business, he handed it over to Qin Yi. With Qin Ce's help, Qin Yi lived up to expectations and developed the Qin family business quite well.
Qin Liang was indeed getting on in years, and he stayed indoors all day, unwilling to go out.
He looked very old and frail.
Upon seeing Qin Ce, he simply smiled and gestured for them to sit down and chat.
When Qin Anning arrived at Qin Man's bedroom, she saw a figure wearing pajamas, with disheveled hair and headphones.
She walked over and patted Qin Man on the shoulder, making Qin Man tremble in fright.
Turning around, a delighted smile spread across her face. "Anning, when did you arrive?"
Qin Man is 23 years old and just graduated this year. She has been idle at home for half a year and recently became obsessed with watching live streams.
"I just arrived, and I looked for you as soon as I got here. What are you looking at?"
Qin Anning looked up at her computer screen and saw four live streamers, two men and two women, all using their talents to garner votes.
Qin Man took off her headphones and said listlessly, "Watching the live stream, what else can I do? Look at these two male streamers, which one is more handsome?"
Qin Anning rubbed her chin and watched for a while. Although both streamers had filters on them, it was undeniable that they looked very handsome under the filters.
She pointed to the man in the suit, "This one, he looks to have a good figure."
The male anchor was wearing a suit, and his exposed chest revealed a hint of abdominal muscles. He had a handsome appearance, and the suit gave him a unique charm.
Qin Man smiled mysteriously and pulled Qin Anning to sit down. "That's why we're called sisters; we have the same taste."
Qin Anning chuckled awkwardly, "Why are you watching live streams? Aren't there enough handsome guys around you?"
"You don't understand. You need to find something new every now and then, otherwise it'll be so boring."
As Qin Man spoke, her gaze fell on the PK on the computer. She exclaimed, "I was so busy talking to you that my baby almost lost!"
After saying that, Qin Man manipulated the mouse and sent out several gifts in a flash, with special effects filling the entire screen.
Qin Anning's eyelids twitched. In just a few seconds, this woman had spent tens of thousands of yuan.
Because she was wearing headphones, Qin Anning couldn't hear what was being said, but judging from the anchor's calm expression, it seemed that this wasn't the first time Qin Man had done this.
After sending the gifts, Qin Man left the live stream and focused on chatting with Qin Anning.
"Hey, what are you doing? My dad said you didn't go to work at his company?"
Qin Anning shook her head. "No, I work in Haishi, but I'm planning to try starting a business with a friend."
Qin Man's eyes lit up. "Start a business? Take me with you! I can invest! I'm just wondering what to do."
“No way, we’re a legitimate startup, why would we need your investment?”
"You don't have to invest, just take me along."
"I already said this isn't a game..."
Qin Man interrupted her, "Oh, I know, starting a business, okay? Count me in."
Qin Anning was somewhat helpless, knowing that Qin Man was just bored and wanted to find some fun to do.
But she didn't want to affect Fu Yin. If this person went and caused a mess, how would she explain it to Fu Yin?
Qin Man held her hand and said coquettishly, "Sister Anning, please take me with you. I promise I'll work hard and won't cause you any trouble."
"If you want to work, just find a job at any company, or even a small startup, it's the same thing."
Qin Man looked her over suspiciously. "Why won't you let me go to your company? Are you hiding something from me?"
"No."
"Sigh, it seems our relationship has cooled down; he won't even grant such a small request."
"It's not that I don't want to agree, it's just..." Qin Anning was a little embarrassed. Qin Man didn't know about her and Fu Yin's relationship, and she didn't want too many people to know.
"Alright, look how troubled you are. I'm not going then." Qin Man laughed irritably. "But what you said has reminded me. I'll look for a job at another small company. Do you have any recommendations?"
"Small companies aren't everywhere; there are over fifty small companies in our building."
Qin Man stared in astonishment, mouth agape. "So many companies in one building?"
This seemed to be beyond the young lady's comprehension. After all, in her experience, every company was located in a building, or at the very least, one or two floors. She had almost never heard of so many companies in one building.
"Yes, and if you go, the salary will be at most five thousand yuan."
Qin Man seemed shocked. Five thousand yuan! She had just casually swiped a gift worth five thousand yuan.
There was no way around it; she was Qin Yi's first child, and they treasured her dearly and protected her too well. From childhood to adulthood, she had only been in contact with wealthy people and had never looked down at the world below the pyramids.
