Eight years later, at S City Airport.

Su Yi just got off the plane when her cell phone started to ring.

She walked out while talking on the phone, hailed a taxi and told the address.

The driver looked at her several times in the rearview mirror. Thinking of her destination, he thought she was a celebrity and wondered why he had never seen her before. She was so beautiful.

"Okay, okay, I will definitely go home for dinner tonight." Su Yi said yes repeatedly and responded to the person on the other end of the phone.

She was talking to her grandmother. Maybe when people get older, they become more like children. Since she said she was going back to China a week ago, Mrs. Qu called her every day to ask about her schedule and make sure she would really come back.

"Don't worry, I won't lie to you, I'm really back." Su Yi said patiently, "It's true, if you don't believe me, ask Xiao Yan."

Mrs. Qu said something on the other end, Su Yi looked helpless: "I know, you can't call me by my name, you have to call me brother, I'm going to find him now, and I'll go back with him tonight, you can rest assured, right?"

After saying a lot of reassurances, she was finally able to hang up the phone.

Su Yi knew that she couldn't blame her grandmother for being nagging, she was indeed away from home for a long time this time, if Xiao Yan's company hadn't contacted her, she might be watching lions on the African savannah right now.

She hung up the phone, but the driver was still upset. He felt that he had heard some incredible news. If the Xiao Yan mentioned by this beautiful girl who looked like a star was the one he knew, then this girl's worth was much higher than that of a star. But

the Xiao family was a big tycoon in S City. Several generations had been good at business. Now the youngest heir was even more amazing. He was only in his twenties, but he had already accumulated a lot of wealth with his own ability and extraordinary vision. Even if he didn't inherit the Xiao family, he could still establish his own family and become another wealthy family.

How many girls regarded him as a male god and dreamed of marrying him. His popularity was no less than that of popular male stars. The driver's own daughter was particularly fascinated by him.

But he didn't seem to have heard that the Xiao family had such a big daughter. Could she be a cousin?

Arriving at the destination soon, Su Yi paid the fare and walked into a building under the driver's searching eyes.

She walked to the front desk, "Hello, I'm looking for Assistant Huang."

The receptionist smiled politely, "Are you Assistant Huang from the CEO's office? May I ask if you have an appointment?"

"Appointment?" Su Yi thought about it, and it seemed that there was no such thing?

Seeing this, the receptionist still smiled and said, "Sorry, I can't let you go up without an appointment."

Su Yi nodded, and didn't make it difficult for her. She walked to the waiting area and sat down. There was another girl there, staring at her resume nervously, and it seemed that she was here for an interview.

She didn't pay much attention to it, and took out her mobile phone to send a text message.

In the meeting room on the top floor, the leader sat upright, with no frightening expression on his face, and he never said anything embarrassing. However, the atmosphere of the meeting was extremely dull. The executives below, who were usually high-spirited and high-spirited in their respective departments, now lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Just when it was quiet, a mobile phone suddenly vibrated. Everyone thought that they were doomed, and they didn't know which bastard it was.

As a result, they saw their boss, the "bad guy" in their hearts, picked up the phone and took a look, and the overwhelming momentum suddenly dissipated.

"I'm downstairs in your company, ask someone to let me in."

Xiao Yan saw this sentence, said to adjourn the meeting, and got up and left.

The people left looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Who is the person on the other end of the phone who can make the boss change his face in an instant? Could it be his father?

The receptionist stood behind the counter, playing with her phone under the cover of the desk, and occasionally glanced at the waiting area.

This is an entertainment company. Usually, there are handsome men and beautiful women coming in and out. She should have seen countless people, but when she saw that girl for the first time, she still felt bright.

It was a very different feeling. She didn't look like those stars with heavy makeup, nor did she look like the pointed chin and big double eyelids of Internet celebrities. There was no trace of makeup on the girl's face, but there was no flaw on her skin. Either her makeup skills were extremely high, or her skin was extremely good.

If it was the latter, then people would envy her. After all, she has such delicate features and a tall figure. She was born to be a star.

So the front desk guessed that she must be someone who came for an audition. She heard the name of Assistant Huang from somewhere and said it out. But she had no idea that someone from the CEO's office would care about such a small matter. Her little thought was in vain.

The front desk thought so, and felt a little regretful. Suddenly, she heard the elevator beep. She stood up straight immediately. She saw from the corner of her eye that the person coming out of the elevator was the company's male god, Mr. Xiao. She straightened her back even more.

Xiao Yan hurried out of the elevator, and when he saw the person waiting, his tense shoulders relaxed slightly. He was about to step forward, but he stopped and looked down at himself. After making sure that everything was right, he walked towards Su Yi at the same pace as usual.

Su Yi was feeling bored, poking the leaves of the potted plant next to her. When she heard footsteps behind her, she looked back and smiled, "Why bother you to pick me up?"

The two hadn't seen each other for nearly two years. They were not very close before, but they didn't feel strange when they met again after a long separation.

Xiao Yan curled his lips, "When did you come back?"

"I rushed to your place right after I got off the plane, but unfortunately I was blocked at the first checkpoint."

"Are you going up now?"

"Of course I am," Su Yi put on her bag, "I didn't come to see you for personal matters, I have something serious to discuss with your Assistant Huang."

Xiao Yan said, "Then let's go, it's on the way, I'll take you to see him."

Su Yi followed him into the elevator.

The receptionist had her mouth open the whole time, staring blankly at this scene.

After a long time, he came back to his senses, opened his phone excitedly, found a group called "The male god belongs to everyone", and typed a message with shaking hands: "I saw the male god smile! At a beautiful stranger girl!"

Xiao Yan sent Su Yi to Assistant Huang's office. When he suddenly saw his boss, Assistant Huang was shocked. After knowing the purpose of Su Yi's visit, he calmed down.

As someone who worked hard with Xiao Yan, he was one of the few people in the company who knew that the boss had a sister.

In other words, many people knew that the Xiao family had a stepdaughter, but not many people had met her, and even fewer knew that Xiao Yan attached great importance to this stepdaughter.

Assistant Huang was one of the insiders. Otherwise, why would he, the assistant to the president and the head of the president's office, be responsible for contacting the photographer?

Even if the photographer is a rising star with a big name and is very popular, and his works are very popular abroad, there is no need for him to take action and use his eloquence to invite the person back.

Why? It's because it's the boss' idea.

But to be honest, he had only seen Su Yi's photos before and thought she was pretty. He didn't expect that she was even more stunning in person. If he had such a beautiful sister, running around outside all day, he might not be very reassured.

Assistant Huang glanced at his boss who stayed in his office as if nothing had happened, shook his head secretly, and talked to Su Yi about cooperation.

Xiao Yan's company invited Su Yi to take a group of photos for a female star that the company has been promoting recently. Su Yi was not very interested in taking photos of people, and she was not prepared to agree. It was Mao Tuan who mentioned that the plot was about to begin, and she missed her grandmother a little, so she agreed.

The specific matters were quickly agreed, and the shooting was just a few days later. Su Yi stood up and saw Xiao Yan was still there, so she asked, "When are you leaving work?"

Xiao Yan said, "There's nothing to do at the company, I can leave anytime."

Assistant Huang's face was full of accusations when he heard this.

Nothing to do at the company? Could he expose his boss's lies?

Su Yi said, "That's perfect. When you finish your work, let's go home together. I'll tell my grandma that I came to see you, otherwise she'll say I lied to her again."

Xiao Yan nodded, "To my office?"

The two left, and before the door closed, Xiao Yan saw Assistant Huang silently shout the word "liar", and he ignored it.

In fact, Xiao Yan was not lying. The entertainment company was just one of his assets. He was not here often. With the management, the company was running smoothly. As a boss, he could delegate things to others. He was not too busy.

He still had some work to finish. Su Yi sat on the sofa and waited, sending messages to others.

In her second year of high school, she applied for an exchange student quota between the school and a foreign high school. Before leaving, the class held a farewell party for her. The girls cried and many boys also had tears in their eyes.

Afterwards, Su Yi also studied abroad. During her studies, she traveled to many places and only returned home once a year during the holidays. After graduating from university, she did not return for two consecutive years. Many of her classmates have not been in touch with her now. Only a few of her good friends urged her to return home every day. Now that she has really returned, she has to let people know.

They have a group and are chatting in the group now.

Su Yi: "I've got a job, so I'll be free in the next two days."

Zhang Jiajia: "Let's make an appointment! Let's make an appointment to sing, eat, and go to nightclubs!"

He Ye: "Let's make a deal first, we won't go to nightclubs."

Fang Yingying: "Got it, you're a good kid with curfew."

Su Yi: "I can't even sing."

Zhang Jiajia: "..."

Fang Yingying: "Then the only thing left is eating? Okay, okay, let's make an appointment to eat too. I know a private restaurant. I heard my brother made a reservation a few days ago. Let's go in his place."

Zhang Jiajia: "Aren't you afraid of being beaten by your brother?"

Fang Yingying: "He Dare."

He Ye: "Forget it, what if your brother wants to invite someone important to dinner? Let's go to another place."

Fang Yingying made a crying expression: "But I want to eat at that restaurant. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I can't get in line."

Su Yi saw this, looked up and told Xiao Yan the name of a restaurant, and said: "Do you have a reservation for this restaurant?"

Xiao Yan put down his pen, picked up his phone and made a call. After a few words, he asked Su Yi, "What time is the appointment?"

Su Yi asked Fang Yingying in the group: "When do you want to eat?"

Fang Yingying didn't understand: "Tomorrow night."

"Tomorrow's dinner, okay?" Su Yi asked Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan nodded, said a few more words, and hung up the phone, "Tomorrow night at 7 o'clock."

Su Yi made an OK gesture and said in the group: "Then let's go eat at 7 o'clock tomorrow night, my brother made an appointment for me."

Zhang Jiajia: "..."

He Ye: "..."

Fang Yingying: "..."

The team was very neat, with a little envy in silence, a little jealousy in envy, and a little itchy teeth in jealousy.

Suddenly I wanted to hit someone.

After a while, He Ye asked, "Are you with your brother?"

Su Yi: "Yes, I'm working with their company this time, and I'm waiting for him to get off work and go home together."

Zhang Jiajia: "Tsk tsk, your brother is a real male god now. He used to call me Senior Xiao, but now we don't dare to get close to him casually. We all have to look up to him, but he is still so good to you."

Fang Yingying: "You can't envy him."

The few people chatted casually, and Xiao Yan's work was finally done, and the two went home together.

In the car, Xiao Yan asked: "Have you made an appointment with friends tomorrow?"

"Yes, they keep saying that we'll get together."

"Do I know them?"

Su Yi said: "They are my female high school classmates. You may not know them, but they all know you."

Xiao Yan nodded, and then asked about her experiences in the past two years.

They arrived home soon. The golden retriever heard the familiar car sound and wagged its tail inside the fence. When it saw that it was Su Yi coming down, it was a little hesitant.

Su Yi stood by the car and waved to it, "Come here, little fool, you always forget me."

Mimi wagged its tail slowly and sniffed her scent tentatively. After a while, as if it finally confirmed something, it swallowed and rushed over, licking her face enthusiastically.

Su Yi was not tall before, but after going abroad, she secretly made herself taller. Now she can be considered tall, otherwise she really couldn't catch this dog.

Old Lady Qu heard the noise and walked out of the house.

"Grandma." Su Yi called out and dragged the dog towards her.

Old Lady Qu had been staring at her. Only when she came close did she roll her eyes, look her up and down, nod her head, and her eyes were slightly red. "Very good, very good..."

Although they often called and sent videos, it was still different when the person was actually standing in front of her.

Su Yi found that she was much taller than her grandmother and could see that she had a lot of white hair on her head.

Grandma was older. She suddenly realized this.

Old Lady Qu took Su Yi's hand and walked into the house. "Are you hungry? Your mother hasn't got off work yet. I'll call her later. If it's too late, we won't have to wait for her for dinner. Tell grandma what you want to eat. The food is ready and I'll cook it for you."

Su Wanting and Xiao Xing have been married for nearly ten years. At that time, they were both young, but they never had children. It was probably because of the experience in their youth. Fortunately, the Xiao family already had Xiao Yan, and Mrs. Qu was happy for her daughter. No one said anything if they didn't have children.

Su Yi said, "I had dinner on the plane and I'm not hungry now. Grandma, let's sit down and talk. Auntie will take care of dinner."

"Okay." Old Mrs. Qu naturally listened to her, "How many days will you stay this time?"

Su Yi tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and said with a smile, "Until grandma chases me away."

Old Mrs. Qu said angrily, "Nonsense, when have I ever chased you away?"

After a while she sighed, "Grandma knows that you young people have your own ambitions. It's good for you to go out more and see what this world that gave birth to us and raised us is like. Grandma just wants you to remember to come back."

Su Yi nodded seriously, "I remember, as long as grandma is here, I will come back no matter where I go."

Old Mrs. Qu opened her mouth, wanting to say that even if grandma is gone, you still have to go home, but the words came to her lips and she didn't say them.

Xiao Yan parked the car and went into the house. Old Lady Qu looked at him and smiled, "Yi Yi called me this afternoon and told me she was coming to see you. I thought she was lying to me."

Xiao Yan sat on the sofa opposite, glanced at Su Yi, and said, "Yi Yi is the photographer our company is working with this time. We took a lot of effort to invite her back from abroad."

"Oh?" Old Lady Qu also looked at Su Yi. Although she was blaming him, her tone revealed her pride in her: "You are so arrogant that you still need your brother to invite you?"

Su Yi raised her chin, "Of course, I am very valuable." "You

are so excited when I compliment you." Old Lady Qu shook her head and laughed.

After Su Wanting and Xiao Xing returned home, the family had dinner.

Over the years, the relationship between Su Wanting and Su Yi has also improved a bit. At least she can now talk to Su Yi calmly. Although they are still unfamiliar, no one can ask for more.

At night, after taking a bath, Su Yi fell on the bed and sighed comfortably.

Maotuan got out of the bag and sat down beside her.

Su Yi saw it from the corner of her eye, and said casually: "You said before that the plot was about to begin, when?"

"Um..." Maotuan hesitated, looking at the two short furry paws, his bright black eyes constantly glancing at her, "I said, Yiyi, don't be angry."

Su Yi raised her eyebrows, "You say, I'll try my best."

Maotuan hesitated for a while before saying, "Actually it started from today. There was another girl waiting in the waiting area this afternoon. Yiyi, did you see her? She is the heroine, and she passed the interview today."

Su Yi was really surprised, and tried hard to recall the girl's appearance in her mind, but the other party lowered her head at the time and she couldn't see it clearly at all.

"That's the heroine? How come she's so... ordinary?"

She didn't mean that in a derogatory way, nor did she mean that the girl looked average, but she thought that the heroine's appearance would be special and hard to ignore, like at least she would have a halo on her head, but there was nothing.

Mao Tuan noticed her thoughts and was speechless for a while. She's not an angel, so who would have a halo on their head?

Yes, the heroine is a little bit indistinguishable from the crowd, but this is an upgraded and cool story. The heroine was just a nobody at the beginning, and she fought back to become a movie queen after hard work. You can't expect her to dominate the world right after she shows up, right?

Su Yi reluctantly accepted its explanation, "What happened next? Tell me about the rest of the story."

Mao Tuan shrugged and roughly summarized, "The heroine just entered the workplace and was bullied by some old-timers. Xiao Yan helped her out, and she regarded them as her perfect male god."

Su Yi touched her chin: "Well, she has a good eye."

Mao Tuan rolled his eyes and continued: "In order to become someone worthy of the male god, the heroine worked hard, seized the opportunity, played a small role in a famous director's film, and thus embarked on the road of acting-"

Su Yi said again: "Not bad, I like her, she has vision and courage."

Mao Tuan said to himself in his heart, don't be impulsive if you can't beat her, so he patiently continued: "Later, when acting, she faced the male lead. Because Xiao Yan was too cold to her, the male lead pursued her relentlessly, and the female lead gradually fell in love with him. The two of them experienced a lot together, becoming popular, being blackened, being frozen, and making a comeback. Finally, she finally reached the peak. At the award ceremony for winning the Best Actress, she made public her relationship with the male lead."

Su Yi frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I still like this ending."

"You fell in love too early." Mao Tuan poured cold water on her, "Have you forgotten that I said a long time ago that Xiao Yan helped the heroine when she was bullied in the workplace because his step-sister committed suicide after being bullied on campus. And now you are alive and well, why would he help the heroine for no reason? There are so many people who are bullied in the world, and she is not special."

Su Yi opened her mouth and said after a long time: "So what should the heroine do?"

"What else can she do? Either she has to endure it all the time, or she will wake up and stand up. She can't rely on others for her own life." Mao Tuan said this in an extremely cold tone.

Although she said so, this incident still left a mark in Su Yi's heart.

There is a person whose life originally had a bright future, but now it is heading towards the unknown. After knowing that she is the decisive factor in all this, it is probably difficult for anyone to remain indifferent.

Su Yi decided that when she goes to Xiao Yan's company in two days, she will secretly pay attention. Maybe the heroine is a little sister with a lot of snacks, then she can be a hero and save the beauty.

On the other side of the city, a girl tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Today she went to the company of her choice for an interview, but she doesn't know what the result will be. The HR asked her to come back and wait for news.

She lay in bed, but her mind kept thinking about the man and woman she met in the waiting area today. They were so glamorous and beautiful, and their bright life was completely different from hers. How she hoped that she could become such a person in the future.
