036: The confidence given by my mother
Xu Yao accepted the dowry given by Lin Meixian.
When Xu Yao and Gu Jun returned to the wedding banquet, Chen Yan and Guo Xianzhen were gone. Lin Meixian said that Guo Xianzhen was not feeling well, so Chen Yan sent Guo Xianzhen home early. Chen Yan was probably hurt by Xu Yao's protection of Gu Jun and did not want to meet Xu Yao again. The mother and son left the villa through the side door.
Xu Yao wanted to sigh after hearing this.
If Chen Yan hadn't been so aggressive, she wouldn't have said such harsh words. The broken engagement was already a fait accompli, and Xu Yao hoped that Chen Yan could move on from the past as soon as possible.
Without Wen Yiyi to cause trouble and Chen Yan leaving, the second half of the wedding banquet went very smoothly.
In front of all the guests, Wen Zhicheng gave Lin Meixian a five-carat pigeon egg wedding ring. Where a man's money is, his love is also there. Wen Zhicheng's attention to Lin Meixian is fully reflected in the pigeon egg wedding ring.
Lin Meixian's weight as the new Mrs. Wen was supported by Wen Zhicheng.
Gu Jun subconsciously looked at Xu Yao's hand.
A one-carat diamond ring is indeed a bit small. I have to find a suitable opportunity to replace it with a bigger one for Xu Yao.
After the wedding banquet, Wen Zhicheng asked Xu Yao and Gu Jun not to leave yet.
"I thought about it and decided to let Yiyi live in another house."
Xu Yao and Gu Jun looked at each other. Neither of them expected Wen Zhicheng to make a decision so quickly.
Lin Meixian also advised Wen Zhicheng not to rush, "We just got married and if we ask Yiyi to move out, will others gossip?"
Wen Zhicheng reassured Lin Meixian, "Even if someone were to say anything, they would say that I, her biological father, am cruel. Yiyi's personality is too different. If I don't make an effort to correct her now, I won't be able to control her in the future."
Wen Zhicheng not only wanted Wen Yiyi to move out of the villa, he also forced Wen Yiyi to be independent. From now on, Wen Yiyi could no longer work for three days and rest for two days. She had to go to work and leave on time like other employees.
Xu Yao said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Uncle Wen, it's not enough to just go to and from get off work on time. We workers all have to work overtime."
Wen Zhicheng thanked Xu Yao for the reminder, "You're right. We won't let her get any special treatment. She has to work overtime even if others do."
Lin Meixian poked Xu Yao's forehead and said, "Yiyi is going to hate you to death."
Xu Yao didn't care. "If it can make her change her temper, then you can hate me. I don't care."
Xu Yao really doesn't care.
Wen Yiyi had been against Xu Yao for so many years, and if she suddenly changed her temper, Xu Yao would only suspect that Wen Yiyi was planning something big. Xu Yao just hoped that Wen Yiyi would be trapped in the work assigned by Wen Zhicheng, so that Wen Yiyi wouldn't be bored and look for trouble all day long!
Thinking that Wen Yiyi was about to experience the hardships of working people, Xu Yao couldn't help humming a song when she left the Wen family villa.
Gu Jun couldn't help laughing: "I found that you are easily satisfied."
Xu Yao blinked, "Life is already so hard, and you still won't allow me to have fun in the midst of suffering?"
On the way home, Xu Yao checked the bank card given by Lin Meixian at the ATM machine. When she got into the car with the bank card in her pocket, she couldn't help but smile.
"My mom is amazing! She made $500,000 by being a middleman for others!"
“It’s really impressive.”
When Lin Meixian attended the cocktail party at the Shen family mansion, she had not yet held a wedding with Wen Zhicheng. In the eyes of others, she was not yet "Mrs. Wen". She was able to act as a middleman to facilitate cooperation, and others were not looking at Wen Zhicheng's face.
With this dowry, Xu Yao felt more confident and asked Gu Jun what he wanted.
"The rule here in South City is usually to buy the man a nice suit and a watch."
Gu Jun was tempted, but refused: "I don't lack suits. I'll invest the money in your studio first. When you make enough money, buy me a good watch."
Xu Yao knew the brand and knew that Gu Jun was currently wearing a watch worth tens of thousands of yuan, so the "good watch" Gu Jun mentioned must be at least six figures. Well, Xu Yao really couldn't afford such an expensive watch with her current financial situation. She immediately jumped down the ladder Gu Jun provided: "Okay, I won't keep you waiting too long. I'll give it to you by next year at the latest!"
There are still a few months until next year, and Gu Jun is already looking forward to it.
Husband and wife also need to delay gratification. Gu Jun looks forward to the day when Xu Yao's career develops.
Perhaps Xu Yao's fortune has been getting better recently. When Gu Jun was parking the car, Xu Yao received a call from her assistant Xiaoling.
"Sister Xu Yao, there's a makeup brand that wants you to promote it. Do you want to take it?"
"What makeup brand?"
Xu Yao didn't take it too seriously at first. Recently, she was approached to promote both cosmetics and skincare products. Unexpectedly, Xiaoling mentioned a brand that Xu Yao hadn't expected.
"Are you sure?"
"Sister Xu Yao, I was also worried that it was a scam, so I called their public relations department to confirm it."
Xiaoling's tone was very excited.
Xiaoling had long felt that Xu Yao would become popular, but she didn't expect that Xu Yao would become famous so quickly. Recently, Xu Yao has been able to receive commercial promotions like crazy. Not only have the quotes from brands doubled, but the brands she can get are also getting better and better!
The more Xu Yao earns, the more bonus Xiaoling gets, so Xiaoling is more excited than Xu Yao herself.
"Talk to them first and try their quote."
Xu Yao warned Xiaoling: "It's okay if you have a tough attitude. If the talks break down, I'll fix it!"
With the 500,000 yuan dowry given by Lin Meixian, Xu Yao can keep the studio running normally even if she does not accept promotion for the time being, which makes Xu Yao more confident when negotiating with brands.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yao said to Gu Jun excitedly, "At this rate, I think I'll be able to buy you a watch soon~"
Gu Jun nodded in agreement: "I'll wait for you."
…
Xu Yao's side business was booming, so Wen Yiyi stayed in her room for a whole day and was only allowed out after the wedding banquet.
Wen Yiyi was holding her breath. Wen Zhicheng came to the room and called her, but Wen Yiyi turned her head away.
Wen Zhicheng was puzzled.
My daughter was lively and cute when she was little, so why did she become so willful as she grew up?
This time, Wen Zhicheng hardened his heart and was determined to break Wen Yiyi's bad temper. He told Wen Yiyi with a cold face that she needed to move out of the villa. Wen Yiyi couldn't believe it.
"Dad, are you going to kick me out of the house because of that woman?"
"I'm not driving you away, it's time for you to be independent."
Wen Zhicheng explained, "The house in the city center is closer to the company, so it's convenient for you to commute. You can stay there during the week. On weekends, you can come back here for dinner. Yiyi, home will always be where your dad is."
Wen Zhicheng tried to persuade her earnestly, but Wen Yiyi refused to listen.
Especially when Wen Zhicheng asked her to punch in and out like other employees and to take back all her special treatment, Wen Yiyi collapsed on the spot.
Wen Yiyi's head was hot. "You're going to kick me out, and you still care whether I go to work or not? Don't threaten me with locking my card. You can lock all my cards. I won't need the money at home anymore, and you can keep it for that woman and her daughter!"
After Wen Yiyi and Wen Zhicheng had their argument, they just drove away from the Wen family without even packing their luggage.
The world is so big, she doesn't know where she can go.
There is an old saying that if you have a stepmother, you will also have a stepfather. Wen Yiyi finally experienced this firsthand today.
When Wen Yiyi was wandering around the street like a ghost, Guo Xianzhen called Wen Yiyi and asked her if she was okay.
"You didn't show up after the wedding banquet..."
Guo Xianzhen's caring words made Wen Yiyi cry, and she couldn't help but confide her grievances to Guo Xianzhen.
Guo Xianzhen comforted Wen Yiyi, "Isn't it just a job? If you don't want to work at your family's company, you can come to the Shen family's company."
