The old Xia family residence in Beijing.
The last time the Xia residence was this lively was when Xia Muge's parents got married.
Many political figures and businessmen from the capital rushed here to send a congratulatory gift.
Some of the invitations to this event have even been resold for as much as 100,000 yuan each.
It wasn't that these merchants were rushing to curry favor with Xia Muge.
It's not so much because here, but because you can meet more people and build a wider network.
The essence of commerce is the sale of information, whether in the primitive agricultural era or the current internet age.
The most successful businessmen are those who have mastered information channels.
Therefore, high-quality information sources naturally attract competition from many businessmen.
Zhao Yue, arm in arm with her father Zhao Tian, arrived at the Xia residence.
Her father ran a third-rate small factory, but it had been doing fairly well lately. Her rich friend had obtained two invitations, and through Zhao Yue's considerable efforts, one of them ended up in her hands.
Her father was overjoyed and increased her allowance by 50,000 yuan.
While Zhao Yue was overjoyed, she couldn't help but think of Lin Xue again.
Lin Xue has already moved out.
It was Qin Shuhua who found the house for her.
Of course, Lin Xue didn't tell her anything about her subsequent involvement with Xia Muge, so in Zhao Yue's memory, Lin Xue was still the fool who rejected Xia Muge and was entangled with Ye Feng.
Although she didn't think Lin Xue could become a daughter-in-law of the Xia family, it would be foolish not to take the money she could have made.
As for love?
How much is love worth?
It's not that Zhao Yue is being materialistic; it's because when she was born, the Zhao family wasn't wealthy, and there was a time when the whole family couldn't afford meat for a whole month.
In her childhood memories, when her family visited other people's homes, it was as if they were being treated like a plague.
Poverty is the original sin.
She didn't have any friends until her father started his own factory.
She knew why her friends were surrounding her—it was all for her money.
Zhao Yue is not a simple person.
She persuaded Lin Xue to accept Xia Muge, hoping to establish a connection with the Xia family and gain benefits.
However, now that Lin Xue's path is blocked, she no longer has any hope for it.
She was self-aware enough to know that she was not as good-looking as Lin Xue, and she would not think of seducing Xia Muge.
Zhao Yue is an extremely intelligent woman.
However, when she saw the quaint Xia residence, she couldn't help but feel envious.
It's not that I envy the living conditions at the Xia residence.
In fact, with the help of modern technology, the Xia residence is only slightly larger and has more servants than the Zhao residence.
There is no generational gap in technology; whatever Xia Muge can enjoy, Zhao Yue can also enjoy.
She envied that at least half of the people here were people her father needed to curry favor with.
Just then, she saw Lin Xue.
Zhao Yue's eyes showed a slight look of surprise.
But then they saw Lin Xue dressed in a formal gown, following Xia Muge like a servant.
She was wearing a light blue dress, and her demeanor no longer showed the naivety of a student.
Qin Shuhua was pregnant and could not stand for long periods of time.
So she had Lin Xue serve as Xia Muge's attendant and entertain guests.
This position should have belonged to Mu Yun.
However, Mu Yun was not feeling well today, so she acquiesced and let Lin Xue come over.
To be honest, this is somewhat against the rules and could easily lead to misunderstandings.
But who would dare to misunderstand?
The people who come here have all done their research to recognize people, so they naturally know that Lin Xue is not Xia Muge's fiancée.
Lin Xue is now a qualified secretary, and she arranges Xia Muge's daily routine.
She has also shed her former naiveté and become a qualified working person.
Although Qin Shuhua was largely responsible for planning the engagement banquet, the arrangements were handled by Lin Xue.
She took care of everything, including the details of communication with people.
Zhao Yue muttered to herself, "I never expected this. I thought you could keep going."
She began to despise Lin Xue.
Lin Xue didn't believe she was able to get here because of Ye Feng's connections. Besides, the distance between Lin Xue and Xia Muge had long since crossed a safe line.
Zhao Tian, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyue, do you know Secretary Lin?"
"Yes, they're even roommates."
Zhao Yue's tone carried a hint of sarcasm.
Zhao Tian said seriously, "Then you'd better get along well with your classmate. Secretary Lin is Xia Muge's favorite right now."
Hearing Zhao Tian's words, Zhao Yue naturally understood that Lin Xue was doing well now.
She muttered to herself, "Okay, I understand."
I thought Lin Xue and Xia Muge had completely broken off their relationship.
Unexpectedly, she became Xia Muge's secretary.
Haha, how could she not understand her intentions?
However, although Zhao Yue is good at praising the powerful and belittling the weak, she is not a fool and will not be stupid enough to question Lin Xue now.
To put it bluntly, you should always make a decision after you have a clear understanding of the situation.
Zhao Yue immediately greeted Lin Xue.
"Hi, Xiaoxue, long time no see."
Lin Xue looked at Zhao Yue, feeling somewhat embarrassed and awkward.
She said those words to Zhao Yue more than once.
However, since she already had a job, she was naturally willing to put aside her pride at the school.
Besides, what's so embarrassing about doing something that's already been done?
She said, "Hello, Zhao Yue, it's been a long time."
Are you working for Xia's now?
Zhao Yue couldn't help but ask.
Lin Xue nodded: "Yes, I'm interning at Xia's. Sorry, I have to go now."
She looked slightly apologetic, then followed Xia Muge away.
If you encounter an acquaintance, just keep it to yourself; you can't mess up this work schedule.
Zhao Yue didn't care, and instead squinted her eyes.
It seems that Lin Xue is trying to please Xia Muge, so she and Ye Feng have broken up?
Zhao Yue felt a mixture of indescribable exhilaration and regret.
If only Xia Muge had pursued her from the very beginning.
After saying goodbye to Zhao Yue in a hurry, Lin Xue calmed down her complicated emotions.
After the news of her becoming Xia Muge's secretary spread, she wasn't without ridicule; the first person to mock her was Ye Feng.
He said she was materialistic and that she was just being coy.
They called her a slut.
At that time, she realized that reputation was completely useless.
If others can judge a person's right and wrong based solely on conjecture, then why is she clinging to her ridiculous reputation?
After that, her heart became stronger and stronger.
Even if you encounter someone you used to know in this setting, you can face them with composure.
Soon, after Xia Muge introduced Lin Xue to a group of people, the two arrived at the bride's room.
Inside the room, Qin Shuhua was radiant and beautiful.
Lin Xue stood guard outside, while Xia Muge picked her up in his arms.
"Honey, how many people are outside right now?"
Xia Muge: "It doesn't matter, because you are the leading lady tonight."
