The train station was very crowded, packed with people.
This is during normal times; during holidays, the system simply can't keep up with demand, and tickets to go back are all sold out.
Xu Cuihua left the train station with her bag on her back. Not long after she left the station, she felt that she was being followed.
She was actually quite bold in her past life; otherwise, she wouldn't have decisively broken away from her family after becoming extremely disappointed with them.
Xu Cuihua turned around and went into a less crowded area.
A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the person following behind Xu Cuihua. They hadn't expected Xu Cuihua to walk into a deadly trap. They followed Xu Cuihua directly into the direction where there were fewer people.
However, after a short while, the man turned and ran away in fear.
Xu Cuihua walked out casually, glancing in the direction the man had fled, and couldn't help but let out a soft sneer.
Coward.
She wasn't this cowardly in her past life.
Weren't you going to rob someone? How can you rob someone if you're so cowardly?
Xu Cuihua casually raised her eyes and saw a figure hurriedly leaving not far away. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
The woman who had just been holding the child was now perhaps aware that her companion had failed, and she hurriedly left with the child in her arms.
However, the next second, their house was blocked.
Xu Cuihua smiled, yes, it was she who reported it.
The old lady was holding a child who looked to be about two or three years old.
They were old enough to speak, but remained completely silent, not even uttering a sound.
Xu Cuihua couldn't help but think of the rumors she had heard: some human traffickers would abduct infants and mute them in order to gain sympathy or pity.
She was worried about this possibility, so she reported the other party when she got off the bus.
The other party has now been taken away for investigation.
Xu Cuihua boarded the giant dragon car and headed towards the east of the city.
If she remembered correctly, Chen Jiayi's home was located in the east of the city at that time.
In big cities, signs are posted everywhere, and what are the slogans on them?
"Learn from Comrade Lei Feng!"
"Family planning benefits the country and its people."
...These slogans were very familiar to Xu Cuihua.
She walked around the alley and found a place with a rental sign.
Xu Cuihua went inside and took a look. The environment was not bad, but the price was too high.
She thought about it and told the landlord that she would look around some more, and if there was nothing suitable, she would choose this place.
When the landlord saw that Xu Cuihua was really going to leave, he quickly stopped her and reduced her rent considerably.
A smile flashed in Xu Cuihua's eyes, and she readily rented the house.
Xu Cuihua could have easily used that money to buy a house. But it would have attracted too much attention!
Therefore, Xu Cuihua plans to rent a house first, then start a business, and buy a house after making some money.
This is the best time to make money.
The country is currently under construction, and there are many opportunities to make money everywhere.
Xu Cuihua wanted to become a powerful and influential person, so that those people and things that had caused her pain in the past would become insignificant on her road to success.
Three years later.
A powerful woman named Xu Jin has emerged in Haicheng. People in the business circle have all heard of her; they've heard that she's adept at seizing lucrative opportunities and is shrewd and resourceful, decisively securing numerous projects.
At the Chen family home, Lan Meixuan looked at Chen Jiayi with a doting expression.
"Jiajia, Ajin said she's coming to pick you up in a bit. Do you want to go out with her?"
Chen Jiayi blinked and quickly ran to Lan Meixuan.
"want!"
Lan Meixuan chuckled, "Alright, then go change your clothes."
Lan Meixuan originally intended to raise Chen Jiayi to be a lady, but Lan Meixuan discovered that Chen Jiayi was not interested in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
She was actually quite interested in doing research, so Lan Meixuan simply let her be.
Two years ago, a woman named Xu Cuihua came to our door.
At that time, Xu Cuihua had changed her name to Xu Jin. This name was originally given arbitrarily by her family and never had any beautiful meaning attached to it, so Xu Cuihua changed her name.
She made a little money in her business, but if she wanted to continue, she needed to find a powerful backer.
In the vast city of Haicheng, business is controlled by a few giants. Want to make money without connections? That's like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth.
Xu Cuihua understood this principle deeply and knew that she could now stand before Chen Jiayi.
So she took the initiative to come out.
There was a series of knocks at the door. The aunt quickly ran to open it and saw the familiar person at the door, so she gave a bright smile.
"You're here?"
Xu Jin hummed in agreement. She now had short hair and wore clean, neat clothes, looking very capable.
High heels are all the rage these days. Xu Jin wasn't used to wearing them before, but for the sake of her business, she's gotten to the point where she can wear them like sneakers.
When Chen Jiayi saw Xu Cuihua arrive, she quickly went over, picked up her things, and prepared to leave.
"Sister Jin, you're here? Let's go!"
Xu Jin is taking Chen Jiayi horseback riding today. Originally, Lan Meixuan planned to take Chen Jiayi to a high-society banquet, but coincidentally, Xu Jin also has plans today.
The Chen family naturally dotes on Chen Jiayi. They have owed Chen Jiayi so much over the years, and now they are going out to play with Chen Jiayi.
Xu Jin led Chen Jiayi to the location, and the two entered the horse farm together. The horse farm manager, who had been waiting, introduced the horses to the two with a smile.
Xu Jin immediately spotted a horse that looked very unruly. The manager followed Xu Jin's gaze, a hint of unease flashing in his eyes.
"Mr. Xu, this horse has a very strange temper. Sometimes it's good-tempered, and sometimes it's bad-tempered."
