When Xue Qiandai returned to the capital, everything had changed.
Xuerun Group declared bankruptcy, Xue Jingnian was imprisoned, and the Xue family's assets were seized, with all real estate confiscated. She didn't even get to see her father one last time before he went to prison.
In fact, the reason she was able to return was because the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. Her subordinates went to find their own way out, and who would be willing to waste time and energy on a fallen heiress?
Xue Qiandai's various VIP cards have all been frozen. The only valuable things she has are the LV trunk and Birkin bag she took to Paris with her, which contain all her belongings.
She returned to Yintai Mansion, but could no longer enter. The security guard recognized her; she used to be the little princess of the first homeowner, but this was no longer her home.
The world seemed vast and uncertain, leaving me bewildered and at a loss.
Just then, the snow lion appeared. Oh, it turned out the gatekeeper had taken the snow lion in for her. She smiled gratefully at him and led the snow lion away.
She searched high and low, found 500 yuan in cash, and took the snow lion to a pet shop. She needed to find a job quickly, solve her food and lodging problems, and then bring the snow lion back.
Xue Qiandai stood on the street in the CBD, looking up at the sky under the scorching sun.
Where does the future lead?
She wandered aimlessly until she came across a tiny, unassuming coffee shop in Jintong West Alley. The coffee cups decorated with long, slender figures were quite cute. She was thirsty and wanted to go in for a coffee. Although she had no money, she could pawn her luxury items. She was confident the owner would appreciate quality.
Xue Qiandai's new life began in this unassuming coffee shop.
Her thoughts returned to reality, and the massage was nearing its end. But her rambling continued.
"You probably never would have guessed, but when you were bedridden and delirious, it was me, the person you once considered a thorn in your side, who took care of you. Isn't life amazing? You should be proud of yourself; I've never taken such good care of my father."
Xue Qiandai squeezed Yu Xue's fingers, summarizing the memories awakened today: "Yu Xue, what do you know? They want to kill you to silence you? If you don't wake up, they will remain at large."
"Alright, I should go now. Tell me, when are your parents coming? I need to go south to find my beloved Huo, I don't have time to come see you every day! Humph!"
She got up, intending to greet the people caring for Yu Xue. At the ward door, she saw two people; the one in front had graying temples and was holding a bouquet of flowers. The one behind seemed to be an assistant.
Gao Ruhai.
"Qian Dai, what are you doing here? Are you... doing well?" Gao Ruhai asked in surprise.
Xue Qiandai stared intently at Gao Ruhai, the man who had once dominated the business world alongside her father and was known as cunning as a fox. She pointed behind her, "Uncle Gao, I've come to visit a fellow alumnus. I'm fine."
She is now able to control her emotions very well.
"I apologize to you on Gao Qiang's behalf." Gao Ruhai said solemnly, his expression apologetic.
Apologizing so late seems far too belated and completely insincere.
Xue Qiandai smiled casually, "No need. I'm unharmed, and he's already been punished. Uncle Gao, what brings you to the hospital?"
Gao Ruhai pointed to the ward and said, "Come and see our outstanding employees."
"Then I won't bother you any longer, goodbye."
She left, informing the hospital's special care nurse that someone had visited Yu Xue.
It was past eight o'clock in the evening when they returned to the Xianghu Bay villa, and Jian Yan was still studying her hand-drawn sketches. The snow lion lay obediently at her feet.
"Dai Dai, you're back. Are you hungry? The food I made is still in the fridge."
How wonderful, someone is looking forward to it, someone is cooking for it. The snow lion ran over and nuzzled her leg with its big head in a fawning manner.
Xue Qiandai rubbed her empty stomach and let out a rumbling sound, "I'm really hungry. Shall we continue learning plate making today?"
"Okay." Jian Yan then walked over with her laptop and showed Xue Qiandai the screen. "There's a video of your beauty Huo giving a speech online, about Huo Tuan's strategic planning and development model. Your beauty really is the epitome of a domineering CEO."
Xue Qiandai glanced at it, and while walking to the kitchen to wash the bowl and heat up the food in the microwave, she said, "That's right, an internet star, the leader most likely to create a unicorn company in the future, and the entrepreneur most favored by the capital market. It's not just a title."
She brought out the food, sat down at the table, and began to eat heartily.
Jian Yan propped the computer up on the table and showed it to her. "By the way, your senior brother Qin Shu actually went too. When he was giving his speech on stage, he was completely different from his usual joking and laughing self."
Xue Qiandai wanted to laugh, so she picked up a large bone and tossed it to Xue Shi. "You know what? Senior Brother Qin is also a top student from Tsinghua University. If he hadn't started a business with Huo Meiren, he might have become an amazing hacker. But now that the beauty has stolen the limelight, he's just a supporting character. Hey, why are you paying attention to Senior Brother Qin?"
"No, I just saw it." Jian Yan changed the subject. "I need to discuss with you when we should leave. It's summer now, so it's best to book the tickets early."
Xue Qiandai scooped up some beef broth and took a big gulp. "Let's make a sample of the men's clothing first. I also need to prepare some materials for the business negotiations with the W Hotel for the boss. We'll go to Xiaoshan in three days at most. Jane, this beef soup is so delicious."
Jian Yan raised her chin and cleared her throat. "In a few days, we'll go to Hangzhou to drink more authentic West Lake Beef Soup. There's one more thing, should we tell Rong Xiao about this trip? You swindled someone out of their principal and then got them to join you."
The word "pitfall" isn't very friendly. Xue Qiandai slapped her forehead. "I forgot about him, but I'm afraid we'll still have to bring him along. I'm thinking we might as well shoot the new product campaign in the south, and have Rong Xiao appear in the menswear. You know, he's good-looking! Since he's joined us, let's make the most of his value."
