Chapter 38 Persistence Will Always Bring Light



Rong Xiao was sulking. His Consort Dai no longer loved him, and even his subservient behavior didn't work. His "victim" appearance was both endearing and pitiful. "I'll increase your appearance fee, Consort Dai, I want you."

"Dai Dai?" Huo Yunchao, who had been waiting for Xue Qiandai to return for a long time, came looking for her.

The girl turned around and smiled, explaining, "I'm fine, I just had a bit of an upset stomach, so I rested here for a while."

Then look at Rong Xiao, he ran back to the bathroom faster than a rabbit.

After the two left, Rong Xiao angrily emerged, clenching his small fists. "Huo Yunchao, you wait! One day I'll make you gay, and then we'll see how you seduce Consort Dai!"

That being said, the moment Rong Xiao saw Huo Yunchao, he instinctively slipped away. To be honest, none of his previous boyfriends could compare to him. Even with his picky and demanding standards, no one was more worthy of Consort Dai than him.

Damn it, Huo is a womanizer. Rong Xiao sometimes thinks, if only he could live with Consort Dai and Mr. Huo, a happy ending.

After all that commotion, Xue Qiandai lost her appetite. Huo Yunchao paid the bill and dutifully escorted her back to her residence. The two were silent on the way. Huo Yunchao noticed her unusual behavior, but she deliberately avoided it, only stroking Xue Shi's head.

The car stopped, and an eerie silence filled the carriage. Xue Qiandai finally couldn't take it anymore and asked, "What were you trying to say? Why did you apologize?"

Her eyes were misty, glistening with moisture.

“Dai Dai,” Huo Yunchao began, “I want to say I’m sorry that I only found out so late that you don’t like grass, so I ordered all the main dishes today.”

Xue Qiandai: "..."

That's all? Xue Qiandai was relieved; this was the result? How ridiculous! But she was ultimately relieved. "Vegetarianism is great. I don't want to become McDull; my image is worth a million."

Huo Yunchao raised his hand and gently pinched her nose, as if it were a natural gesture. "Hmm, your image is priceless. Even if you turned into McDull, you'd still be an adorable McDull. Dai Dai, we..." He unbuckled his seatbelt and moved a little closer to her. The agonizing longing he had endured day and night was almost consuming him; at this moment, all he wanted was to hold her in his arms.

Who cares if there's a snow lion in between? The snow lion has crammed the vehicle full, its paws covering its eyes; it's psychic.

Do not look at what is improper.

A bell rang; it was a Blackberry bell.

Huo Yunchao took a deep breath. Is it so hard to live a life undisturbed? He didn't answer; the phone kept ringing.

Xue Qiandai, looking bewildered like a deer, pointed at his phone. Huo Yunchao sat back down and pressed the answer button.

"Yunchao?" The call was from Huo Yunchao, a senior alumnus. Completely oblivious to the intrusion, he got straight to the point: "The alumni association meeting the day after tomorrow will be attended by senior executives from TC Group. They specifically requested to see you, presumably to finalize a major collaboration. There will also be a matchmaking event afterwards..."

TC Group is an internet unicorn company with businesses spanning social networks, PC and mobile games, mobile payments, online shopping malls, online literature, and video websites. Many startups consider being acquired by TC as a strategic goal.

Huo Yunchao interrupted him, "Okay, senior brother, I understand. I will be there on time. I will also bring a very good friend with me."

Xue Qiandai tilted her head. "A very good friend? A friend!" she thought, not happy.

"Snow Lion, I'm counting on you." She got out of the car and slammed the door shut.

"Dai Dai?"

Xue Qiandai pretended to be nonchalant and waved from behind, "Beautiful Huo, see you on Sunday."

Huo Yunchao silently recited, "See you on Sunday, don't be late." Then he said to the snow lion on the seat, "Snow Lion, call me Daddy."

The snow lion let out a reluctant "roar".

Back in the room, Xue Qiandai found Jian Yan lying on the bed, her slender legs crossed, revealing a section of her fair ankles, browsing online shopping on a laptop. Xue Qiandai went over and saw that she had bought an air conditioner.

"Jian, buying home furnishings?" My Yanbao is so virtuous!

Jian Yan turned around and smiled, her face turning into a crescent moon. "Today is the mid-year sale, and things are much cheaper. We need to buy some things for our new home, so I took the liberty of buying them."

Xue Qiandai never discussed rent with Jian Yan; she paid for it herself because it was agreed when they started selling goods that Jian Yan would receive half the commission. Moreover, Jian Yan had taken her in when she was homeless. At that time, Jian Yan was her everything.

She had little concept of money and firmly believed that she wouldn't be down on her luck forever. Besides, she and Jian Yan were now partners, so it was even more impossible for them to keep track of the money.

"You should be frugal. You might find that some things aren't that important in a few days."

Jian Yan smiled. Xue Qiandai never hesitated to spend money on herself, but when it was Jian Yan's turn to pay, Xue Qiandai stopped her. "I know, they're all necessities."

Jian Yan placed an order and then clicked on another website, which was a small Taobao shop called "Never Stop Walking". The homepage displayed the following text:

While you're creating your PowerPoint presentation, Alaskan cod are leaping out of the water.

As you look at the report, the golden monkeys of Baima Snow Mountain have just climbed to the top of the tree.

As you squeezed into the subway, eagles in Tibet soared through the clouds.

While you're arguing in a meeting, backpackers in Nepal are raising their glasses around a campfire.

There are some roads that you can't walk on in high heels.

There's some air you can't smell when you're wearing perfume.

There are some people you'll never meet in an office building.

Keep moving.

The style of this clothing brand is similar to that of Jian Yan's previous designs.

"DaiDai, I actually want to create a small Taobao shop with attitude, design, and the feeling of traveling while wearing clothes."

When describing her dreams, Jian Yan radiated an irresistible glow.

“Jane,” Xue Qiandai scribbled on her palm, wanting to dream with her. “We’re already on our way. Our little shop will be online soon.”

The scene was a bit sentimental. Jian Yan smiled and said, "Dai Dai, do you know how much this little shop sold during its mid-year sale?"

In the past, Xue Qiandai wouldn't have cared at all, but now, it was her duty. She casually clicked on a shirt that read, "If you're unhappy, change into this as a hug." This shirt sold over 800 pieces.

"So profitable!"

Incredible.

Xue Qiandai knew that e-commerce was a trend, but she didn't expect that China's e-commerce had reached this level, with an ordinary small shop generating such high revenue.

Jian Yan pointed at the screen, her eyes sparkling: "Dai Dai, during the mid-year sales, I estimate this store's revenue will be at least ten million. If our store reaches that level, you won't have to envy real estate agents anymore!"

Xue Qiandai felt a surge of strength and direction. Who said that small Taobao shops had no future? Could her haute couture even compete with Taobao? "Jian, take pictures of a few of this shop's best-selling items, and we'll study them carefully."

That night, the two girls excitedly conducted research, using a small bed as their battlefield, and embarked on their fashion journey.

The night was as thick as ink, but a ray of dawn pierced through the darkness.
