Chapter 419: Standing Out
The seemingly luxurious woman in front of him was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
She hesitated, and although she didn't completely believe what Shi Yan said, she was also worried about embarrassing Guan Xiao again.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I knew you were doing so well now, so I should have told you in the group a lot earlier."
The woman took out her phone and sent a message, "Look, if we need anything from you in the future, you can't refuse, Guan Xiao."
"Well, there's a celebration party tomorrow. My mom heard I was coming back and insisted on arranging a studio specifically for me."
"You must come."
She didn't care whether Guan Xiao's identity was true or false. If it was true, she would have more connections.
If it's fake, there will be something interesting to watch tomorrow.
"Where is the notice?"
"In the group, aren't you in this group?"
Hearing her words, Guan Xiao curled his lips into a cold smile, "Yeah, I'm in the group, didn't you say you couldn't contact me?"
Seeing Guan Xiao exposing the woman's face, the woman felt a little embarrassed.
She smiled awkwardly, "Look at my memory. I just found out about this today."
"Then it's just right that you're in the group. I'll send the address directly later."
After saying this, the woman walked away in her high heels.
Guan Xiao looked at Shi Yan gratefully and said, "Thank you for your help just now. I won't go to any of those messy celebration banquets tomorrow."
"go."
Shi Yan held her wrist, her eyes firm, "I'll go with you."
Although she had only known Guan Xiao for a short time, she knew that she was a person with extremely strong self-esteem.
This woman's words were like invisible needles pricking Guan Xiao.
"Shi Yan, it's me."
"No need to say so much, we are friends, aren't we?"
Guan Xiao was touched, her eyes slightly red, "If you have any problems in the future, come to me and I will definitely help you."
Shi Yan curled her lips slightly, "Okay, when the time comes I'll beg Miss Guan, but you must not ignore me."
"I'll definitely help."
Guan Xiao sighed and asked if there was anything he could do to help her. Shi Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "We'll talk about it later."
The two of them went shopping and had a meal, and were about to go home when Guan Xiao suddenly noticed a figure not far away.
"What are you looking at?"
"That person seems to be locked up. I'll go over and take a look."
Shi Yan was worried and followed him.
In a store not far away, there was a man who looked very much like Guan Cheng. Shi Yan was afraid that Guan Xiao could not control herself.
"Wait a minute, I'll go over and ask."
"What's he doing here instead of working? This brat must have learned bad habits!"
Shi Yan held Guan Xiao tightly and said, "Calm down. There are so many people here, all of them are his classmates. Kids nowadays have their own pride. Don't talk to him to his face."
"I'll go over and ask."
Guan Xiao frowned. She really couldn't control her temper. "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Every family has its troubles. Sister Guan, didn't you say you treat me as family?"
"I'll go over and ask."
Shi Yan pretended to pass by the studio, and Guan Cheng looked up and recognized Shi Yan, "Sister Yanyan, what a coincidence."
Guan Cheng was deeply impressed by Shi Yan, not only because she was beautiful, but also because she was the only normal friend Guan Xiao brought back.
Guan Cheng dusted himself off and said, "Let me buy you some coffee."
"Aren't you delivering something?"
"Yes, I have found a new part-time job now."
Shi Yan accidentally saw the box under his feet. Guan Cheng smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's okay. Interns have to do some physical work, but at least this part-time job can help me now."
Guan Cheng has his own ideas and dreams, even if Guan Feng and Guan Xiao cannot support him.
If Guan Cheng asked for it, Guan Feng would definitely satisfy him, as the eldest brother always acted like a father.
If Guan Xiao knew that he was pursuing his dream of entering the fashion design industry, she would probably scold him.
They both gave up on their dreams because of life's compromises.
Guan Cheng carefully hid his dream, but after meeting Jiang Yue, he became unwilling to give up.
There are some things in his heart that he can only tell Jiang Yue.
"Sister Yanyan, can you not tell my sister? I'm afraid she'll be angry."
"You knew I would be angry?"
In the coffee shop, Guan Xiao rushed over angrily and reached out to pull up Guan Cheng's collar. "Why don't you just work part-time? What are you doing here?"
This is a high-end office building, and the people working here are all senior white-collar workers. Guan Xiao's eyes are gloomy.
Guan Cheng felt guilty and stopped talking for a moment.
Shi Yan stopped Guan Xiao and said, "Don't be so impulsive. At least listen to what your brother says and let him explain."
"I."
"Have you contacted that woman secretly?"
Guan Cheng's face suddenly turned pale.
That woman was Guan Xiao's Achilles' heel. She rushed towards Guan Cheng and slapped him.
There were a few crisp sounds, and Shi Yan blinked in shock.
Guan Cheng was also stunned. He covered his face and looked at Guan Xiao aggrievedly, "You are always like this. Just because we are poor, do we have no reason to pursue our dreams? Do we have to live our whole lives just for revenge?"
“No ambition!”
Guan Xiao gnashed her teeth in anger, "Don't you know why our family has ended up like this?"
"You actually went to beg that bitch?"
"Guan Cheng, do you still have any shame?"
Guan Xiao was too excited, so Shi Yan pulled her arm to calm her down, "Okay, everyone is watching."
Guan Xiao slammed the table excitedly, "What's your last name?"
"Don't scare him."
Guan Xiao couldn't help but yell at Shi Yan, "He's an adult!"
Guan Cheng would not say anything to Guan Xiao. He only knew that once Guan Xiao knew about this, he would be completely finished.
For Guan Cheng right now, it was like the sky was falling.
"Guan Cheng?"
Jiang Yue's uncertain voice came from behind. She moved closer to pull Guan Cheng's hand and looked at Guan Xiao with cold eyes, "Did you hit him?"
"He's my brother, not yours!"
Guan Xiao clenched her fingers tightly.
Jiang Yue gave her a cold look, then checked Guan Cheng's injuries. "You were really cruel. Are you sure it's your biological sister? Let's get it checked tomorrow."
"Jiang Yue, what does it have to do with you?"
Guan Xiao hated Jiang Yue to the extreme. She pulled Guan Cheng to leave, but Guan Cheng stood there motionless.
"Guan Cheng!"
Guan Xiao was on the verge of a breakdown.
Jiang Yue's eyes were sharp and cold, "Miss Guan, Guan Cheng doesn't intend to go with you."
Guan Xiao stared at Guan Cheng with dismay, "You won't have a sister like me anymore."
She picked up her bag and left.
Shi Yan followed, Jiang Yue frowned, why was she with Guan Xiao?
When Shi Yan went out, she happened to pass by Song Yuchen.
He looked calm, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Their eyes met for a second, and then their backs intertwined and separated.
They both thought at almost the same time, why is he here?
"What's taking so long?"
Jiang Yue frowned and couldn't help muttering, "Guan Xiao actually took action."
There were five clear palm prints on Guan Cheng's face, and it was obvious that the force was quite strong.
Song Yuchen never likes to meddle in other people's affairs.
